Chapter 14 Hotel Transfer Disturbance
Tianhai City Detention Center.

"Dad, I don't want to go to jail..." Cai Zhijian, who was wearing a prison uniform, looked terrified, "You must rescue me..."

Opposite, stood a middle-aged man, about 50 years old, fat and fat, with a gold necklace as thick as hemp rope hanging around his neck. The man's name was Cai Fugui, the owner of Fugui Bookstore, and Cai Zhijian's father.

"Now you know you regret it? Why did you go?" Cai Fugui raised his eyebrows and scolded, "I told you not to read such messy novels as "Goddess Raiders Diary", but you didn't listen to it. It's alright now, read novels You are so obsessed with reading that you dare to commit murder with a knife, aren’t you courting death? Don’t you know that the police are cracking down on book criminals now!”

"Dad, I'm not reconciled..." Cai Zhijian's eyes were flushed, "I have done so many things for Liu Shiming, and I love her so much, why doesn't she give me a chance..."

"You bastard! Still thinking about that woman at this point? What the hell is wrong with your brain? Reading novels makes you stupid!"

"Liu Shiming is my goddess, I can't let other men take her away! Dad, I don't want to go to jail, I'm going to find Liu Shiming..."

"enough!"

Cai Fugui yelled loudly. If it weren't for the iron window, he would have slapped Cai Zhijian twice, "I spent so much money for you to learn reading skills, thinking that you would be able to study well and achieve something. Unexpectedly, after learning reading skills, You actually went to read "Goddess Raiders Diary" and turned yourself into this kind of virtue! A Liu Shiming made you like this, what will you do in the future? Take it!"

Having said that, Cai Fugui casually threw out a novel, which landed in front of Cai Zhijian.

Cai Zhijian read the novel, and saw that on the pink cover there was a beautiful picture of a lover breaking up. On the top of the picture, there were eight characters written - "Goodbye, my former lover".

"This "Goodbye, My Former Lover" is a healing romance novel. I borrowed it from Dr. Du. It can treat the negative and extreme psychology after a broken relationship. Please read this novel carefully, read it carefully, Get rid of your mental problems as soon as possible!"

With a sullen face, Cai Fugui commanded sharply, "Don't indulge in "Goddess Raiders Diary" anymore, let alone the goddess Liu Shiming, or I will break your legs!"

Cai Zhijian trembled slightly, he didn't dare to say any more, he knew that his father always kept his word.

"The evidence of your assault on Liu Shiming this time is conclusive. I'm afraid you will stay in prison for a while. You should read this novel carefully first, and don't worry about other things."

Cai Fugui's face suddenly showed a stern look, and he thought to himself: As for the Liu family, I will settle the debt with them slowly!Within three months, I will make Mingxing Hotel disappear from the novel street!
……

In Mingxing Hotel.

Father Liu came out of the kitchen, holding a piece of white paper in his hand, walked to the door of the restaurant, and pasted the white paper on the front.Liu Xing leaned forward and took a look, only to see four words written on the white paper—store transfer.

"Dad, are you going to transfer this hotel?"

"The hotel business is not easy to do, so we can only transfer it."

"What happened?"

"In the past two days, more than half of our restaurant's takeaway business has been rejected..."

The business of Mingxing Hotel is not good. Its main source of income is to deliver food to nearby booksellers. The income from food delivery accounts for about [-]% of the hotel's total income.

Yesterday, many booksellers called, claiming that they would no longer order food from Mingxing Restaurant.With the sharp reduction in the takeaway business, Mingxing Restaurant is likely to be unable to make ends meet, and even the rent of the restaurant cannot be paid.

"Why did the takeaway business suddenly shrink?" Liu Xing wondered, "Is there someone playing tricks behind the scenes?"

"We didn't offend anyone, who would do this..." Halfway through the speech, Liu Shiming suddenly thought of something, "Could it be Boss Cai?"

"What Boss Cai?"

"Cai Zhijian was arrested by the police. Will his father, Cai Fugui, hold a grudge and deliberately try to embarrass us?" Liu Shiming knew that Cai Fugui was rather domineering. He had been in the bookstore business on Fiction Street for more than ten years, and he was a relatively strong one. old bookseller.

Father Liu said slowly: "Whether it's the Cai family's trick or not, we have no proof, one thing more is worse than one thing less..."

"Dad, I'm sorry..." Liu Shiming was full of guilt, "It's all my fault..."

"Ming'er, you didn't do anything wrong." Liu's father comforted, "Cai Zhijian's heart is not right, and he dared to use a knife to commit murder. This bastard should be taught a lesson. There is nothing wrong with you calling the police. Our Liu family also It's not easy to bully."

"But..." Liu Shiming was very unwilling, "We have been operating this restaurant for more than seven years, so why don't we just let it go? How about I borrow some more money from Professor Juan and pay this month's rent first , in case of emergency..."

Father Liu shook his head: "We didn't pay back the 2 yuan we borrowed from Professor Hu last year, so we can't bother him anymore..."

"How much is the rent of our hotel?" At this time, Liu Xing interrupted.

"The shop rent and the rent on the second floor add up to 35000 yuan a month."

"35000 yuan?" Liu Xing thought for a while and said, "I should be able to raise 35000 yuan." He found a two-star novel "Book Tomb Notes" the night before, and this book should sell for tens of thousands of yuan.

"Silly boy, we will solve the money problem, you don't have to worry about it." Mother Liu came over, gently stroked Liu Xing's head, and said with a smile, her soft eyes were full of kindness.She didn't believe that Liu Xing could really get the money together, after all, Liu Xing just came out of the mental hospital two days ago.

In the past two years, in order to treat Liu Xing's illness, Liu's father and mother lived frugally, even if they went bankrupt.Now that Liu Xing has recovered from his condition, this is the greatest joy for the two elders.They don't expect Liu Xing to do anything big, as long as Liu Xing is healthy and healthy, the two old people will be satisfied.

Hearing Liu Xing said that he could raise 35000 yuan, Liu's mother only thought that her son was sensible, and said something to comfort her, but she didn't take it seriously.

Liu Xing didn't explain too much, he did have a two-star novel, but there are eight copies of this set of "Book Tomb Notes", and Liu Xing only has one in his hand, which is not complete, and the price may be discounted.

If it is sold, Liu Xing has no idea how much it will be worth.Therefore, he does not dare to give his parents a clear answer for the time being, so as not to disappoint his parents' hopes in time.

Liu Xing was going to go to the book testing center to confirm first, and if the price was right, he would sell "Book Tomb Notes" for some money.

Now not only family members need money, but Liu Xing himself also needs money.

He has decided to challenge an impossible task in the Huaxia Kingdom's novel circle - to improve the novel to 100%!

Although the authoritative experts of Huaxia Kingdom have long denied this possibility, Liu Xing is still willing to give it a try, because he has the ability that others do not have, and can directly see the matching degree of the novel with his eyes.

With this ability, Liu Xing can observe and record changes in the matching degree of novels at any time, and then summarize and analyze various factors that affect the matching degree. He feels that he may be able to discover some mysteries from it.

After reading "Dragon Babu" today, the matching degree increased by 0.1%, which seems to indicate that reading skills can improve the matching degree of novels.

That being the case, it is natural to buy a few reading theory books and study them carefully.Buying theoretical books will inevitably cost money, and now the family is short of money, Liu Xing can no longer ask the family for money, so he can only find a way by himself.

I happened to have a copy of "Book Tomb Notes" in my hand, so I sold it first in case of emergency.

After making the decision, Liu Xing went back to his room and found the "Book Tomb Notes" on the bookshelf, and was about to go to the book testing center to appraise the novel. Liu Shiming happened to be going to Tianhai University, so the two went out together.

……

After the siblings left the restaurant, Liu's father and Liu mother started talking in a low voice in the kitchen.

"Old Liu, don't tell Ming'er and Ah Xing about Cai Fugui's matter. These two children are so filial. I'm afraid they will mess up after they know the truth." Mother Liu urged earnestly.

Father Liu nodded: "I understand. How can I tell my children these things? Anyway, if the restaurant is sold, our family will move away from the novel street. If we can't afford it, can we still hide it?"

Yesterday, Cai Fugui once approached Liu's father, hoping that Liu's father could help rescue Cai Zhijian.The way to save people is very simple, that is to ask Liu Xing and Liu Shiming to give false testimony, saying that what happened in the alleyway the night before was a joke, so that Cai Zhijian can be released without charge.

However, Liu's father did not agree to Cai Fugui's request. It is impossible for him to let his children give false testimony, and it is even more impossible for him to let Cai Zhijian come out and continue to hurt his daughter.

The meeting between Father Liu and Cai Fugui last night ended unhappy.

After this incident, Mingxing Hotel received many calls from booksellers to unsubscribe from takeaway food. It is not necessary to think about it, and it is probably related to Cai Fugui.

Cai Fugui is an old bookseller who has been in the novel street for more than ten years. He is rich and powerful. Liu's father and Liu mother are just ordinary people. How can they fight against such an old world.

So, the two old people discussed it and decided to sell the restaurant and leave the novel street where they lived for more than ten years...
