Situ He watched the target reappear in front of the camera.
He immediately ordered the person beside him, "Go and check what the target did upstairs just now."
"Yes!"
About ten minutes later, Situ He received a list.
The target's shopping list.
"Muscle-bone Strengthening Scripture"?
"On the Scientific Method of Internal Strength"?
"Ancient Alchemy and Qi Observation Technique"?
These were all fantasy books that were popular decades ago. That was the golden age of martial arts.
Therefore, similar books were very popular.
But now...
Even the new Xianxia novels were about to decline.
But these were just the beginning. Soon, Situ He saw a list that made him even more confused.
"Stellaris: The Complete Guide to Genetic Ascension".
What was this?
"Stellaris: The Complete Guide to Spiritual Energy Ascension".
What was this?
"Stellaris: The Evil God and the Ancient God"
Finally, it was a little more normal.
However, Situ He took out his phone and checked. He found that these books were the official setting series of a game.
The following books were a little nonsensical.
"Dark Fairy Tales"?
"Construction of Mind and Consciousness"?
… …
All of the books were poles apart, unable to connect with each other.
So...
What did the target want to do?
Situ He looked at the books on the list and expressed his incomprehension.
Then, he ordered to provide a book that was the same as the target's shopping list.
His order was quickly carried out. Soon, someone moved a large box of books in front of him.
Situ He picked up the books one by one.
He quickly read through all of them, and his frown deepened.
He felt that his level was indeed too low.
He could not understand the target's behavior at all.
"What does he want these books for? These are completely ordinary, or even worthless books?"
Among these books, only a few were a little nutritious.
The rest were all folk science books. Some were even fantasy books that were not even considered folk science books.
A supreme ancient god specially went to a sensitive place at such a sensitive time and bought a batch of worthless books back...
Situ He swallowed his saliva.
He could not help but pick up the phone and dial that number.
"Commander-in-chief, it's me, Situ He..." After the phone was connected, he hesitated for a moment. After briefly describing the matter, he asked his question, "Commander-in-chief... What is the deeper meaning of the target doing this?"
"What message is he trying to convey?"
"Hmm …"
"Yes …"
"Before the target did this, he was indeed very anxious …"
"And after he did this, he felt much more relaxed, as if he had solved the problem …"
"Yes …"
"I promise!"
"Hmm …"
"Yes … yes …"
"Understood!"
Situ He put down the phone and took a deep breath.
In the phone call just now, the commander-in-chief had proposed an idea.
The target had encountered some sort of indescribable trouble.
Then, he bought these books.
Considering that the target was living in human society under the guise of a bookstore owner.
He also considered that the books he sold were all mysterious books and divine books that contained extraordinary potential.
The Commander in Chief judged that the target had sensed or expected that a certain problem or trouble was about to appear.
So, he bought this batch of books.
Perhaps he was planning to create a new batch of strange books that could specifically solve the problems or troubles he foresaw.
Therefore …
The commander-in-chief had given him a mission.
Let's go to the target's store and test the waters.
For this reason, the commander-in-chief allowed him to use the federation's special reserves.
As long as the target was willing, he could go to his shop and buy a new book.
However, he had to grasp the time well. It was best to make sure that the target had a new book in his shop.
"That's the only way!" Situ He touched the flashlight in his arms.
This treasure was now in his personal collection.
Because he already knew that this item had the power of a railgun!
While he was thinking about this, the target on the screen in front of him had already walked out of the surveillance range of the book wholesale market.
Situ He raised his head and immediately asked, "Where did the target go?"
"He seems to have gone to a printing shop in the alley next door …" A staff member replied.
"Printing shop?" Situ He frowned. "What is he doing there?"
"I don't know …"
Situ He quickly checked. There were no foreign species or transcendent being operating the printing shops in the entire book wholesale market.
This made him heave a sigh of relief.
…..
Ling Ping'an walked out of the printing shop called Ming Yang.
This shop and his family had an old relationship.
Since his parents\ 'time, this printing shop had been responsible for the production of posters and signboards for his family\'s bookstore.
"Uncle Wen, don\'t send me off!" Ling Ping'an turned around and waved at the old man who was determined to send him off.
"Little Ping'an … if you have time, come to Uncle Wen\'s house to play …" The old man said goodbye to Ling Ping'an with a smile.
"Okay!" Ling Ping'an hugged the kitten Bastet and bowed to the old man.
Watching the old man disappear behind the shop door, Ling Ping'an also sighed.
Speaking of which, in his parents\ 'time, printing shops and bookstores were very popular.
But …
With the rise of the mobile Internet, bookstores and printing shops were all hit hard!
He had just talked to Uncle Wen\'s shop. Uncle Wen planned to retire after this year.
Business was getting harder and harder to do.
Profits were getting smaller and smaller.
The key was that his children were unwilling to inherit this industry.
It was too hard and there was no money to be earned!
Therefore, next year\'s posters, shop plaques, and wallpaper would probably have to find someone else.
This made Ling Ping'an a little uncomfortable!
He wasn\'t used to finding new partners because it might take time to get used to, and it was also very troublesome.
But this was how the world was.
"Let\'s go home!" Holding the kitten Bastet, Ling Ping'an touched his stomach. He was a little hungry.
It was time to go home and order takeout to fill his stomach!
At night, he had to change the wallpaper and posters in the bookstore.
He also had to prepare new bookshelves for the new books!
This task required a lot of stamina and time!
… …
Situ He looked at the information noted on the business page.
The registration message had disappeared. This small printing shop called\ 'Ming Yang\' had existed for decades.
However, its owner had already applied for graduation.
The graduation time was March next year.
According to other investigation results, the target family seemed to have a long-term cooperative relationship with this printing shop.
He thought about it …
Situ He pursed his lips, then picked up the phone and called Xia Ping.
"Chief Xia..." the call went through. Situ He immediately said, "Can you think of a way to buy the Ming Yang printing shop in the book wholesale market?"
"Yes..."
"Okay... Sorry to trouble Chief Xia!"
Putting down the phone, the corners of Situ He\'s mouth curled up slightly.
