The two argued for a while and finally reached an agreement. The gatekeeper gave Li Banfeng three and a half Ocean Dollars.
Li Banfeng took the money and entered the city.
The gatekeeper sneered, "Seeing your expression, you still seem not fully satisfied. Let me tell you, giving you three and a half is already generous. In the past, when I was ruthless, I would only give you three. What could you do about it?"
...
Li Banfeng arrived at Changsan Book Residence. Yan Cui'er was soliciting business at the door, Yan Qing'er was singing in the house, Yan Hong'er was sitting on the side reading a newspaper, and Tang Changfa was managing accounts in the back hall.
Seeing the shopkeeper return, everyone was very happy. Li Qi glanced at the newspaper in Yan Hong's hands and couldn't help but frown, "Isn't that last month's paper?"
Yan Hong'er pouted, "I asked Tang Changfa for newspapers, and he never buys them for me."
