However, there were quite a few people in the bookstore at the moment.

“Madam, it’s a little crowded now. Do you still want to go?” Lu Chuan’s voice came from the front.

Ye Muyu nodded. “I’ll go down and have a look. Ziluo, you stay in the carriage. Mother will be back soon. ”

“Alright.” Chu Ziluo knew that this was a special situation. If it was any other time, she would definitely be able to go down, so she obediently agreed not to cause trouble for her mother.

Ye Muyu got out of the carriage.

She went straight into the bookstore with Madam Hu.

The bookstore had two doors, so even though it was crowded, it was not difficult to walk in.

Zhang Yan and Zheng Chun were entertaining the guests on both sides.

They looked very busy.

Ye Muyu walked in and knocked on the counter where Zhang Yan was.

Seeing her, Zhang Yan’s expression turned solemn and he welcomed Ye Muyu in.

“Madam, I’ll entertain the guests first. Please wait a moment,” Zhang Yan said.

Ye Muyu nodded and told him to get busy.

Zhang Yan heaved a sigh of relief. After being reminded by Lu Chuan, he immediately knew that he had to understand the temperament of the two masters first before he could do anything.

Now, it seemed that the Madam and Master of the Chu family were not as difficult to get along with as he had imagined. They were just very principled.

Ye Muyu walked to each bookshelf and looked around.

Madam Hu knew that Ye Muyu was confirming the amount of things sold, so she did not say much and silently accompanied her.

Ye Muyu read through it and knew that business was good today without Zhang Yan reporting.

There was a bookstore in the county that seemed to be related to Landlord Wang’s family.

However, the Wang family was not good at the bookstore business. It seemed that they were more focused on shipping and the more profitable silk business. In fact, the focus of their business had even shifted over the years.

Chu Heng had told her about this. Ye Muyu remembered that he had a powerful caravan, so she did not doubt it.

As a result, the Wang family’s bookstore was not competitive in the entire county.

Therefore, there were not many books on normal days.

Just as she had expected, the best sellers were the policy papers and exam papers that Chu Heng and the others had practiced in the school, as well as the exam questions that Dean Zhang had given to the students.

Some of them were written by students with outstanding results.

As the provincial examination approached, there was nothing more precious than this information.

Hence, they had sold out twenty portions of the pills. Many students had even come to ask if there were any more.

The next best seller was the book that Dean Zhang had commented on.

There was not only one school in the county, and not all students studied in the county. Some beginners were also willing to buy books that had been annotated by Dean Zhang, who was an advanced scholar. Therefore, business was not bad.

As for the other miscellaneous books, fewer people bought them.

On the contrary, only some servants bought them back. It was unknown whether they were buying them for the young masters or the young ladies.

There were even servants of the Xie family among them.

Ye Muyu felt that Xie Yu might be taking care of his business.

Although the sales of the miscellaneous notes were a little slow, it was normal. Moreover, there were a variety of them, so she was not worried that they would not sell.

After walking around, Ye Muyu knew what was going on.

“Madam, I see that lots of books have been sold. Business should be good, right?” Madam Hu asked.

“It’s not bad. So far, 306 out of 400 exam papers have been sold. 13 books have been sold. Among them, eight are the Four Books and Five Classics Notes, four are miscellaneous notes, and one is an agricultural book. It’s a total of 380 taels of silver.”

Ye Muyu’s voice was not loud. In the lively bookstore, only Madam Hu and Zhang Yan, who had just walked over, heard it..
