Chapter 13 There is such a treasure
The young man walked into the door of the library with all the thoughts of going with the flow.
Just as I entered the door-
"Um?"
The young man was immediately stunned because he had already felt the difference here at the first time.
In the past, as soon as you get started in the library, you can see ancient books and classics placed everywhere. Although they are all placed well, they give people a messy feeling.
But today—
After entering the door, the first thing he saw was a large open space.
And in front of the open space, there was a long table, and two people sat behind the table.
How to say, the way this table is decorated makes young people think of the layout of restaurants and shops in ordinary places. The shopkeeper or accountant usually stands behind the long table to collect money and calculate the income.
But the library in front of me has such a pattern, which is really surprising.
When the young man was wondering, one of the fat men sitting behind the table stood up immediately when he saw him entering the door, he greeted him with a hurried silence: "Welcome to Guang~~~~~"
ah?
The young man looked at the fat man in a little surprised.
From the clothes, he recognized that the fat man should be a servile disciple.
But he was a little confused about the strange tone of "Welcome" and thought to himself that this was not known to be the dialect of the ordinary world, which sounded so strange.
However, facing a serious disciple, the young man was not afraid and walked over and asked, "When did this library become like this now?"
The fat man was Wu Fulai, and his words "Welcome" were the result of Chen Shaojie's deliberate training.
Although he had already practiced well before, he felt a little ashamed of shouting at someone for the first time just now. The tone was so weird.
When Wu Fulai saw the young man walking in, he knew that this was a formal disciple of the sect and did not dare to neglect it. He said seriously: "This senior brother, Master Qingzhu saw that the library was in chaos a month ago, and told me to reorganize the place. It took me more than a month to make the library look like it is now."
This was also what Chen Shaojie called Wu Fu.
Now, in addition to the major changes in the environment of the library, the management methods of the library have also changed, and are operated completely in accordance with the Earth Library.
Because he was worried that someone would come to borrow books and was unwilling to abide by the new rules of the library, Chen Shaojie specially ordered Wu Fu to come. If anyone asked why the library became like this, he would move Master Qingzhu out, which was equivalent to pulling Master Qingzhu's tiger skin as a banner.
In this way, we should be able to calm down the "small" and make people dare not disobey the new rules of the library.
really--
Hearing Wu Fulai say this, the young man nodded immediately: "It turns out that it was the work of the ancestor Qingzhu, no wonder there will be such a change."
While speaking, the young man looked at the bookshelf in the library and found that the books inside were neatly arranged, which was really different from the previous situation.
Wu Fulai asked, "Senior brother is here to borrow or read books?"
"Um?"
The young man heard Wu Fulai's question a little strange and asked curiously: "Is there any difference between borrowing books and reading books...?"
Wu Fulai nodded and replied according to the statement he had decided before: "Senior Brother, the library is different now from before. If the senior brother only reads books, he can do whatever he wants. But if the senior brother wants to borrow books, the books in the pavilion are not borrowed casually. If you want to borrow, the senior brother must go through the relevant procedures."
Wu Fulai said politely, and he moved Master Qingzhu out before. The young man was not impatient and only asked patiently: "Oh, what procedures do you need to go through to borrow a book?"
Wu Fulai said: "If a senior brother wants to borrow books, he must first pay ten merit points as a deposit and apply for a book loan certificate. Then he can borrow any book in the library with the certificate. The period is one month. If he fails to repay it within the deadline, he will deduct one merit point from the deposit in one day until the deposit is deducted."
"Ten points of merit?"
As soon as he heard that he wanted to pay the meritorious point, the young man's brow jumped immediately.
However, after he understood Wu Fulai's explanation, he asked for confirmation: "The ten merit points are deposits, does that mean they can be refunded?"
"That's right!"
Wu Fulai nodded: "As long as you cancel the loan certificate, you can refund the deposit."
After a pause, Wu Fulai followed the explanation Chen Shaojie taught him before: "The deposit for these ten merit points is to prevent people from damaging books, losing them, or borrowing them but not returning them."
"I see!"
The young man understood.
Although these ten merit points were not given for free, he was unwilling to listen to what the mate disciple said and took out his merit points.
After thinking about it, he said, "So, I can find and read books in the library at will, right?"
"That's right."
Wu Fulai nodded and said considerately: "Senior Brother, I don't know what books you are looking for. If you need them, I can help you find them. We just sorted out the books in the cabinet, so it's easier to find them."
The young man pondered for a moment, and felt that there was nothing to say, so he said directly: "It's so great, please help me find books about the Xiling Mountain Map Square Chronicles."
"Xiling Mountain Map Square Chronicles?"
After hearing this, Wu Fulai thought for a while and said to the young man: "Senior brother, you can follow me, I'll take you to find it."
Wu Fulai's thoughtfulness is also the result of Chen Shaojie's training.
Take your first-time guests to visit the library and use science to popularize the methods of finding books, which is very beneficial for leaving customers.
Wu Fulai led the young man into the bookshelf of geography and local chronicles, and then searched according to the first letter of Xiling Mountain. After a while, he found two books about Xiling Mountain.
The young man looked through it and found a map inside, which made him both surprised and happy.
While flipping through the books, he couldn't help but look at the other books on the bookshelf. He saw that these books were placed in an orderly manner. Most of the bookshelf were books such as geography, maps, and local chronicles.
"This book will be easy to find... I didn't expect there would be such a treasure land..."
The young man thought to himself, feeling that he had found what he wanted so easily, and today he was really lucky.
Recalling the decision I made in the Sutra Library before, I couldn't help but secretly be glad that I didn't give those twenty merit points, otherwise I would have regretted it.
Wu Fu saw the young man without saying a word and asked in a harmonious voice: "Senior Brother, can these two books fit your wish?"
The young man was in a state of arrogance. Hearing this, he looked at Wu Fulai, feeling that his fat face seemed to be a little closer. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Thank you, junior brother, these two books are exactly what I want to find."
"That's good, senior brother doesn't need to thank you."
Wu Fulai nodded, pointed to a small piece of open space that Chen Shaojie had previously led the disciples of the errands to clear out, and said, "Senior Brother, there are tables and chairs there. You can sit down and read slowly. If you finish reading, you can just put the book on the table. We will have someone to organize it, and you don't need to worry."
The young man turned around and found that the place Wu Fulai was pointing to was really placed with tables and chairs, which obviously made people sit down and read books. He couldn't help but sigh that such an arrangement was really considerate.
"Okay, thank you junior brother."
"No need to thank me, senior brother, I'll leave first. If there is anything else, you can go to the front desk to find me."
After Wu Fu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
The young man nodded secretly. The library is really good now. It seems that he will come often in the future...
