Dimensional Bookstore
The lonely and brilliant God
The purchase ratio is not enough, please support the genuine version~ Le Jing smiled slightly and did not comment.
Linda looked at the orderly bookshelves in the bookstore in awe, "I guess you must be a wealthy collector. I dare say that there is no bookstore with more books than you in the whole Bruce City, oh no, the whole Said Empire. Which country are you from? Are you wearing clothes from your country?"
The level of technological development in this world prevented Le Ling from collecting information online, so he could only use mental power to roughly scan the environment within a radius of ten kilometers. He was helpless for places farther away. So everything in this world depends on Le Jing to collect intelligence himself.
As his first guest, Linda undoubtedly provided him with very important information: the publishing and cultural industries of this era were very underdeveloped, which was a mixed blessing for him.
"Huaxia." He said softly, "What I'm wearing is called a long gown." This long gown was bought on Taobao on a whim a few years ago. He had never worn it much, but he didn't expect it to come in handy here.
Should I get some information from this woman? Le Jing thought for a while and gave up the idea. Compared with the communication with serious personal bias and inefficiency, he prefers to collect intelligence and information from relatively objective books.
"What about the country I haven't heard of? Is it next to India?" Linda asked.
"No." Le Jing shook his head gently and smiled, "It is a country far away from here. She is both young and old, both exists and does not exist."
Linda looked at the mysterious Oriental man in confusion: "I am confused by you. What are you talking about?"
"You will understand, one day." The strange Oriental man had a mysterious smile on his lips, and looked at her with a strange certainty, "So Miss, do you want to buy a book?"
What book do you want to buy? Linda remembered the "Flying Man" magazine she was reading recently. This is a collection of travel notes about pilots flying around the world. This book made her very interested in flying, and she was eager to find some similar books to read.
"Excuse me, do you have any books similar to the "Flying Man" magazine?"
The Oriental man thought for a moment and said politely: "I'm not sure if I have any. Can you tell me what kind of magazine this is?"
"It tells the stories of pilots exploring the world. The stories are fascinating." Talking about her favorite books, the frustration and sadness on Linda's face disappeared, and her eyes began to shine.
Le Jing smiled, "I just have a book that meets your requirements."
Linda looked at him expectantly, "What book?"
Le Jing grinned: "Its name is "The Little Prince."
Only adults can understand, the lonely little prince.
So far, "The Little Prince" is a best-selling book with a circulation of more than 500 million copies on the earth and translated into more than 250 languages. The reading volume and printing volume are second only to the "Bible".
The emotions contained in the text are common. Even if it changes time and space, Le Jing believes that this fairy tale can still conquer countless adults who were once children.
"The Little Prince"? Linda almost immediately thought of those vulgar prince and princess romance novels. These clichéd and bloody plots can only fool the brainless little girl.
The flawless prince is destined to exist only in fairy tales. As a member of the upper class, Linda knows better than anyone what kind of virtues those well-dressed young men have behind them. You know, even the villain Bingley, in the eyes of the little girl who doesn't know the truth, is also a graceful prince.
She raised her chin proudly, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed by Le Jing's contempt: "If you think so, you are wrong. I am not interested in romance novels."
"It's not a romance novel." Le Jing smiled cunningly, "This is not a romance novel. "The Little Prince" tells the story of a pilot's adventure after he was forced to land in the desert due to engine failure."
Pilot, engine failure, forced landing, desert... Every word made Linda's heart surge and her imagination run wild.
"How much?" Linda asked before she realized that she left in a hurry and didn't bring her wallet at all - and she didn't need to bring her wallet at ordinary times, and the servants would pay the bill.
Seeing Linda's embarrassment, Le Jing smiled and said, "Take it, I won't charge you."
Now Linda began to look at him with suspicion.
Le Jing smiled frankly: "Of course I have my own purpose. As you can see, I am a book lover. So if possible, I would like to exchange books with you."
"Exchange for what?"
"A book about history."
Such a broad request made Linda look at the bookshelf behind him in surprise. Isn't there a book about history among so many books?
"But it's better to be a history book of your country." Le Jing added.
"Okay, I promise you." Linda looked at the rich and beautiful color of the cover fascinatedly, and said absent-mindedly.
She quickly took the book from Le Jing's hand. It must be said that this is a very beautiful book. She fell in love with it almost immediately. She had never seen a novel and beautiful book cover before! The cover is a melancholy dark blue. A little child with golden hair is standing on a strange-looking big rock and looking into the distance. In the lower left corner, there is a sentence written in beautiful cursive: Dedicated to children and adults who were once children.
The whole book was wrapped in a layer of plastic film, and it was obviously not opened yet. Linda would be its first reader.
The sound of wind chimes sounded again, and the store returned to silence. The programmed smile on Le Jing's face disappeared immediately, "I'm really curious about what kind of country this is." An excited smile appeared in his eyes.
Thanks to the universal translator installed by Le Ling, he and Linda had no communication barriers. Le Jing couldn't help but sigh at Linda's rough lines, and didn't even notice the problem of his lip shape not matching.
Since ancient times, the spread of culture has been restricted by language and culture. Even the most perfect translation on Earth cannot restore the original flavor of the work 100%, but the translation provided by Le Ling claims to restore the essence of the original work 100%. Such a heaven-defying translation function can only be achieved by black technology from the future.
Although human sorrows and joys are not the same, the greatness of great works lies in the fact that they can maximize the dialogue between readers and authors directly to the soul.
Without the constraints of language, readers will definitely be able to fully understand the thoughts and emotions of the original author. Le Jing has always believed that good works can transcend prejudices and restrictions in terms of nationality, religion, culture, etc., and resonate with readers.
Le Jing was looking forward to the girl's feedback, and also to the book she would bring him the next day.
The doorbell rang again, and Le Jing smiled professionally and looked at the next guest: "Welcome, what book do you need?"
※
When Linda had time to read the new book, it was already evening. She had wasted another afternoon!
But this was helpless. As a noble lady of her prime, if she wanted to live in the upper-class circle, she had to spend time and energy on boring socializing.
She changed into pajamas, sat at the head of the bed, and under the warm light of the table lamp, she couldn't wait to open the book.
The author's name is Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Linda had never heard of this name. It was probably a new author.
New authors often mean bad grammar and shitty content. Linda secretly prayed that this book would not disappoint her, after all, she was quite interested in the subject matter.
