But what love can a gold master buy?

"What new business?" Shen Tinglan asked.

Luo An took the paper towel handed by Luo Quan to wipe his sweat, and raised his face and said, "That's right, someone wants to rent a paper book, because the phone is locked by family members, and many apps can be used for a limited time."

"So you want to buy paper books again?"

"almost."

Shen Tinglan felt that this was not feasible. After all, paper books were expensive and conspicuous, which they had made clear at the beginning.But Roan is not an idiot, since he opened his mouth, he must have a whimsical idea, so he dragged a chair and sat in front of him: "Okay, then talk about the idea."

"I'm going to buy a batch of interesting second-hand books, the kind that my classmates have left over. The price depends on his wishes. If he wants to collect money, he can just pay according to the receiving price of those second-hand platforms, which basically ranges from one to five yuan; If he wants to read books, then we will convert the book price into the number of days for borrowing one book or several books." Roan smiled with a certain chance of winning, "In this way, we will monopolize the entire market."

Shen Tinglan nodded: "Then what if someone imitates it?"

"Don't worry about this. This work is time-consuming and difficult to imitate. I'm afraid there are not many people who want to do this business. If you have ideas, I have already prepared a speech for strategic cooperation."

"I believe in your eloquence. Then the last question," Shen Tinglan asked him, "where are you going to put so many books?"

"Some in lockers at school, some at home."

"Does your elder brother care about this?"

"Well...it's hard to say, but if it doesn't affect your studies, it shouldn't be too strict." Luo An touched his chin. "To be on the safe side, I'd better find a hidden place and put it away."

Immediately, he rolled his eyes, narrowed his eyes and smiled at Shen Tinglan: "Brother Shen, it's up to you."

"Oh, isn't it only when the elder brother is here that he would call me Brother Xiao Shen? It seems that this is not a good job to do."

"No, little brother Shen."

At this time, Luo Quan, who was silent at the side, finally spoke: "Now you are the one who cleans the house. If you want to hide something within the cleaning range, others will not find it."

Shen Tinglan thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "You guys know how smart your elder brother is, and I don't dare to mess with him."

"Don't worry." Luo An slapped his hands up and down, and put on a soothing gesture, "We won't be able to collect too many books in the short term, the school lockers are definitely enough, and the few people who cooperated I can share some books a little bit, but I have to wait until December if I want your help."

He had already talked about this, Shen Tinglan nodded, thinking that the most unlikely place in this house would be his suitcase.And a lot of daily necessities in the suitcase have been taken out, and if the rest of the items are arranged and squeezed, it should be no problem to stuff more than a dozen books.

But he didn't expect that Roan would come to him for help before October was over.

"Our school has been requisitioned as a test center, and we can only bring books home this weekend."

Luo An and Luo Quan put a book in their hands on the desk while explaining to Shen Tinglan out of breath.

Each of them was carrying nearly twenty books, and both of them had crimson marks on their hands. Seeing this, Shen Tinglan could only help them collect books.

One copy was hidden in the suitcase as he had planned, and the other was hidden in the storage box under the bed—there were clothes and shoes for deep winter in it, and no one was there except him who cleaned every day. Will touch those two boxes.

Fortunately, no one noticed the book, and Roan kept his word, and took the book back to school two days later.

Shen Tinglan didn't expect that a month later, the two boys would come back with more books.

"Is your school being requisitioned as a test center again?"

"No...it's because our business has grown..." Luo Quan moved back two bundles of books at once, sat down on the floor panting, and Luo An was not much better, he moved more and lay on the bed On the floor, he continued panting, "People from other grades also came to us to rent books."

Shen Tinglan squatted down, stared at the bundle of books, and found that the contents were all-encompassing, ranging from profound to world classics, simple to fairy tales, and everything else.

"You have collected too much. How many days will you let it go this time?"

Luo An sat up supporting himself: "The number of days... It's more flexible. We will take the scheduled route now, first give people a list of books, let them choose, and then hand over the books to them the next day."

"Doesn't that mean you have to run around carrying so many books every day?"

"No." Luo Quan explained, "The most popular ones are left in the school, and some reservations have to be queued up. The books brought back are relatively unpopular. We only need to get two or three books every day."

After he finished speaking, he took out more than 80 yuan from his schoolbag and handed it to Shen Tinglan: "Brother Shen, take care of this month's income."

To be honest, Shen Tinglan thinks that more than 80 yuan is obviously not worth the risk for him, but after staying in this house for two months, apart from Wei Li, these two brothers are the best to him, willing to chat with him to relieve boredom, and share Give him snacks.Since it was because of a little emotion, it would be bad not to help, so after thinking twice, he still agreed.

After some discussion, they picked out some of the most famous books and put them on the desk in the room openly, because it didn't matter if these books were seen, they could be said to be borrowed from classmates; Wrap the black garbage bag and push it deep into the bed, so that even if someone opens the storage box under the bed, as long as they don't look at the bottom of the bed, they won't find the problem.

The rest of the books were divided into two groups according to categories. The group of magazines and comics was put into the closets of Pingan brothers, and the novels were put into the safest corner of the family as usual——Shen Tinglan’s suitcase.

The two-week experiment proved that the three of them cooperated seamlessly, Wei Li and Zeyi seemed unaware of this, so Shen Tinglan was relieved and happy, because he felt that he and Wei Li's family were gradually becoming one with each other, and truly became a part of the family.

The only fly in the ointment is that the relationship between him and Wei Li is still the same and there is no progress.

In this regard, he occasionally felt a little anxious and bored, but every time Wei Li rubbed his back, brought him a small fruit when he went home, and covered him with the quilt when he got up at night, his wrinkled heart would feel like a wave. Return to calm.

He knew that the things between them were too complicated, and the estrangement could not be eliminated in a day or two, so he kept the idea of ​​a long flow in his heart, and only waited for time to smooth out these twists and turns.

But just when he thought that life would continue to be warm and peaceful, fate...or the carelessness caused by his own complacency and ignorance, severely mocked his innocence.
