By the time the first snowflake fell from the sky, Lin Jie had already finished organizing the bookstore.
Because the invitation mentioned that this grand banquet would be held for three whole days, the food and accommodation would be provided by the organizer of the banquet, Ji Bonong.
Lin Jie had asked Ji Zhixu about the banquet, and the number of participants alone was more than 1200 people. According to her description, it included famous people from all walks of life, and there might even be the real ruler of Nuo Jin's central district.
Therefore, normal food and accommodation were definitely not enough, and one could imagine how extravagant this banquet would be … But as the controller of Luo Er's resources, it was normal for Ji Bonong to be so generous.
Lin Jie felt that since he had gotten the invitation with his own ability (meaning chicken soup for soup), of course, he would not let go of this opportunity to eat and drink for free for three days.
No, since the invitation was personally sent by Miss Ji, how could it be called a freeloader?
This was called an equivalent exchange of non-physical labor for remuneration.
In short, this meant that Lin Jie would be away for three whole days, and during this period, the bookstore would still be open to make money.
Therefore, the difficult task of looking after the bookstore naturally fell on Mo En, who was his assistant.
Lin Jie had already solemnly told Mo En all the things to take note of, and was now patiently giving his last instructions before he left.
Although this nagging seemed a little long-winded, but after transmigrating for so long, this was the first time he was officially away from home, so naturally, he had to take it seriously … com
Usually, when he went out to buy groceries or other daily necessities, he did not have to walk very far. The furthest he had gone before was to ask Xiao Hei to help him teleport to Wang Erde's house, not to mention not being in the bookstore for three days. For Lin Jie, who had been at home for three years, this was a very strange experience.
"The books on the bookshelves are categorized according to left to right, philosophy, religion, military, economy, culture, science, art, astronomy …"
Originally, only Lin Jie could use the bookshelves to randomly refresh the library, and the ability to materialize books according to his thoughts.
So now, he could only temporarily categorize these bookshelves and put the appropriate books on them. This way, it would be convenient for Moen to find and sell them.
Of course, Lin Jie usually finished reading a batch of books before changing. It had been a while since he changed the books on the bookshelves. Mo En, who often cleaned the bookshelves, should be familiar with the books and should know what he was selling.
"If someone wants to buy them, sell them according to their original price. No bargaining."
"I don't accept bargaining!"
Lin Jie emphasized this point, then pointed to the bookshelf on the other side and added, "If someone comes to borrow books, then give this row a deposit of ten yuan for each book. Each person can only borrow three books at most. Remember to ask for all the information... Have you memorized all the information you need to record?"
Moen nodded and said seriously, "Yes, name, ID number, address, and contact information."
"Very good."
Lin Jie nodded with satisfaction, then said, "If you encounter any trouble, call the police immediately. Although I know you can fight, you can't always solve problems with your own strength. Learn to use your brain and try to ensure your own safety."
Moen nodded seriously.
Then she thought for a moment, tilted her head and asked, "What if I can solve it with my own strength?"
Lin Jie, "..."
This little comrade's way of thinking is very tricky!
Lin Jie put on a straight face, reached out and rubbed Moen's head hard, and said unhappily, "If you can solve it, call the police first. It's better to be safe than sorry. If something happens to you, where am I going to find a second assistant?"
Moen's face was rubbed until it was deformed. She looked at Lin Jie with bright eyes and muttered, "So I'm the one and only assistant, right?"
Lin Jie was no longer angry at Moen's ability to grasp the main point. He sighed helplessly, turned and touched her head gently, and said, "Yes, yes, yes, you're the one and only. Look at how poor I am, I can't afford to find another one."
Moen nodded seriously, "That's true."
"..."
Lin Jie sighed again. He thought to himself, You're the one and only one in the world to be able to meet a boss like me who's willing to take you in.
He continued, "Well, it seems that you're clear about the things you need to pay attention to. Oh, right, remember to feed the cat."
Lin Jie waved his hand, and Little White immediately came over and jumped into his arms.
He stroked it twice and patted its belly. Then, he handed the fat cat to Moen and complained, "This guy is really getting fatter and fatter. I really wonder if it ran into the pigeons' nest and ate to its heart's content the last time I sent it to catch pigeons."
Moen pinched the cat's ears and looked down.
She was the one who ran into the enemy's nest last time … Was the boss hinting that she had gained weight recently? It seemed that after using the new Philosopher's Stone to replace the foundation, she did eat a little more.
Lin Jie pushed open the door of the bookstore and was surprised to find that there was a thin layer of frost on the ground, and there were footprints of pedestrians on the road in the distance.
He looked up at the sky, and the thin snowflakes that were slowly floating down swirled with the cold wind, indicating the official arrival of winter.
Lin Jie reached out and caught a snowflake, and felt the slight coldness in his palm, and sighed as a southerner, "This is called winter …"
Although he had been in Nuo Jin for three years, the climate here was also warmer. In the past few years, there would only be a few days of light snow during the coldest days, but this year, it unexpectedly snowed quite early.
"There might be a heavy snowfall this year."
Lin Jie muttered, and turned to Moen with a smile, "Then, I'll set off. During the time I'm not here, take good care of Little White and run the bookstore. "
Moen hugged the fat white cat and nodded. He stood at the entrance of the bookstore and watched Boss Lin, who rarely wore a formal suit, disappear at the end of the alley, leaving only a trail of footprints.

As a member of the Mystical Tower's Logistics Department, Thomas sat in the house on the corner of the street as usual, leisurely making tea, and closely observing the mysterious bookstore through the window.
Since this bookstore entered the Mystical Tower's sights, a special team was set up in the Logistics Department to pay attention to its movements.
Thomas was in charge of the shift today.
He had always thought that this was an easy job, because the bookstore owner's work schedule was too normal, and he was also excessively lazy.
This guy didn't even go out!
"Sometimes, I really have the thought of 'Is such an ordinary person really at the level of a God?'"
Thomas took a sip of tea and looked at the entrance of the bookstore as usual.
Then, he was stunned to see the black-haired young man in a formal suit, bid farewell to the young female assistant, and then … walked in a direction he had never been to before!
"Pfft!"
"Crash!"
Thomas spat out his tea, then stood up abruptly, knocked over the table, and staggered out.
As he ran, he took out his communication device and shouted in horror, "Warning! Attention, everyone! Attention! He, he left the bookstore! He left the bookstore! "
