Chu Heng did not resist when Ye Muyu pinched his ears. As long as Ye Muyu was in his arms, he was satisfied. Everything else was nothing to him.

“You’re too thick-skinned. Hmph!” Ye Muyu snorted angrily. “Anyway, you can’t be so rude outside anymore.”

“Understand?” Ye Muyu saw that he did not stop and hit his chest hard.

Chu Heng’s handsome face approached her. His eyes narrowed. “Ah Yu, you’re getting fiercer and fiercer. This isn’t good.”

“You’re the one who’s being unreasonable.” Ye Muyu’s face turned red. “The others will laugh at us.”

“Alright, I’ll be more careful next time.” Chu Heng reached out and patted her head. His eyes were filled with love as he responded. However, he subconsciously hugged her and sat on a chair in the room, silently accompanying her.

Seeing that he had agreed, Ye Muyu did not care about it anymore. She opened the account book and looked at it.

She had not checked this month’s account book yet, so she did not need to check the previous one again.

It was already the end of the month, and the account book recorded more than four hundred taels of silver. Cheaper books could cost a few taels of silver, while the more expensive ones cost ten or twenty taels of silver.

According to the account book, 78 books were sold, half of which were books on farming or business, while the rest were mostly the Four Books and Five Classics.

This was beyond Ye Muyu’s expectations.

“Ah Heng, I want to call the shopkeeper in.”

Chu Heng nodded in acknowledgment and withdrew his hand from her waist. He sat back in his chair and called Zhang Yan in.

Zhang Yan stood respectfully in the middle of the room.

“Madam, do you have any doubts?”

“I see that there have been many people coming to buy the Four Books and Five Classics recently. What’s the situation?”

Zhang Yan smiled lightly. “It’s because of Madam’s benevolence. Ever since customers who buy books are allowed to listen to the reading lessons in the bookstore without spending money, more and more ordinary people have bought the Four Books and Five Classics back. You don’t know, but the bookstore is extremely lively now. It’s like this every day.”

“I see.” Ye Muyu nodded with satisfaction. “If the storyteller is too busy, we can invite another teacher.”

“Yes, Madam.” Zhang Yan nodded.

“Oh right, there are also books about farming and business. They seem to have sold more this month.”

Zhang Yan replied, “The weather has been getting colder recently. In November, the further north we go, the more severe the ice will be. Many merchants will take advantage of September and October to make more money.”

“If Madam wants to buy goods from other places now, you can find an opportunity to go to the county for a walk. At this time, there are most foreign merchants. When spring comes next year and the river melts, more foreign businessmen will come.”

Ye Muyu nodded. “Okay, I understand. Let’s talk more about the wood ears. I think we can collect the last batch soon. If we wait any longer, all of them will rot on the mountain.”

“It just so happens that there are foreign businessmen you mentioned. If the people have baked the wood ears, they can bring it to our bookstore to sell and set the price according to the quality.” After Ye Muyu gave the order, Zhang Yan knew what to do.

After reading the account book, there was nothing else to say.

Ye Muyu and Chu Heng left the bookstore together.

Zhang Shu was still waiting outside the bookstore. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Seeing them come out, he hurriedly went up to them.

“You just stay in the bookstore.” Chu Heng raised his hand.

“Yes, Master.” When Zhang Shu saw this, he pulled the carriage into the backyard of the bookstore.

Chu Heng accompanied Ye Muyu and planned to go shopping first.

“There are so many people now.” Ye Muyu looked at the bustling merchants around him. This was more lively than the previous county town. “Ah Heng, is there anything you want to buy?”
