Reading as a god

Chapter 52

On Friday, even though it was a holiday, Zhang Shan didn't sleep in. Thinking about the agreement with Gu Zijin, Zhang Shan woke up early and took Wu Miao to do morning exercises.

It was just 07:30 when Zhang Shan arrived at Shuimu South Gate, but Gu Zijin was already there.

Gu Zijin was already tall, but at this time she was wearing a lavender-colored dress, which made her stand out even more in the crowd.

Zhang Shan strolled over: "Zijin, why are you here so early!"

"No, I just arrived too. By the way, you are still dressed so formally today!" Looking at Zhang Shan and Gu Zijin who was dressed in a formal suit, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"I originally picked out the clothes for yesterday's class reunion, but today I spent a long time choosing clothes and didn't know what to wear, so I'll just wear them. By the way, follow me!"

"No, we have to wait, there is one more person."

"Who? Do I know him?"

"I know you, you met Han Yanning last time in the vice chairman's room of the student union."

Zhang Shan immediately remembered the person who wanted to trick him into joining the campus radio.

"Oh."

"Speaking of which, she is the goddess of our school's School of Economics and Management, don't you have any ideas?"

"Why do I feel less beautiful than you?"

Although he was very happy to be praised for being beautiful, Gu Zijin said seriously: "Is it so simple and straightforward to praise a girl for being beautiful? You have to start with the details. For example, your XX clothes match really well; you chose this lipstick number really not bad."

Zhang Shan really didn't know these routines very well, but he didn't bother to pay attention to them.

……

There is no harm if there is no comparison. The reading session starts at 08:30, and Han Yanning arrives late at [-]:[-].

It seems that from the map, you can go to many places in the capital in half an hour, but that is all based on the premise of no traffic jams.

Zhang Shan couldn't help being rather unhappy.

Seeing Zhang Shan's hesitant expression, Han Yanning hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, my department was delayed by some things."

Han Yanning said this, but she was thinking in her heart, what happened to a big man waiting for a woman.

……

Seeing Zhang Shan driving the "E99999" Rolls Royce Phantom towards the two of them, Han Yanning froze in place.

Han Yanning knew that after the video of Zhang Shan reciting the law broke out, she was famous in a certain area, but Han Yanning never thought that Zhang Shan would be very famous.

Gu Zijin, however, was not surprised, and got into the passenger seat of the car generously.

Han Yanning obediently sat in the back seat of the car, but she was thinking about the relationship between Zhang Shan and Gu Zijin.

Looking at the luxurious interior of the car, Han Yanning immediately judged that the value of the car was at least 2000 million, and couldn't help but envy Gu Zijin's good luck.

However, Han Yanning was not convinced at all, and simply took off the coat that was put on the T-shirt.

……

"Zhang Shan, I know you are Mr. Zhang, but you don't need to drive such a high-profile car!"

"But this is already my most low-key car, okay?"

Listening to Gu Zijin's complaints, Zhang Shan was also quite helpless. Could it be that he was driving an aggressive car like a sports car or a rough-looking car like a G65 to attend a book club?

"I don't know much about cars. What I mean is that your license plate is too high-profile. Not everyone in the capital is worthy of being the Nine-Five Supreme."

Zhang Shan always felt that there was something in Gu Zijin's words, so he didn't say anything.

Listening to the bland conversation between the two, Han Yanning was even more jealous. Seeing that Zhang Shan seemed to be looking back, she puffed out her chest on purpose.

Han Yanning was envious of Zhang Shan's luxury car, and even felt a little inferior.

Zhang Shan doesn't know what Han Yanning is thinking, if he knows, he will definitely tell Han Yanning - my car worth tens of millions is really not as valuable as the airport.

……

Hurrying quickly, I finally arrived at the top floor of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel 5 minutes before the event started. Zhang Shan was actually quite surprised that this so-called reading club was actually chosen in such a place.

However, there are already 6 people who have arrived first, four men and two women.

A few people didn't speak, they were all reading books quietly.

Gu Zijin, Han Yanning and Zhang Shan sat at the table and the other six didn't say anything, they just nodded their heads.

Seeing this, Zhang Shan sat down silently.

There is a copy of "Protestant Ethics and the Spirit of Capitalism" on the table. It seems difficult to understand the book just by reading the title.

As for the author——Max Weber, Zhang Shan is even more unknown. Zhang Shan reads in the introduction of the work:

"The author Max Weber 1846-1920, a famous German sociologist, one of the most influential social scientists in the West in this century, a pioneer in the comparative study of modern culture. He devoted his life to investigating "the economic ethics of the world's religions", and also It is an attempt to explore the internal relationship between the spiritual and cultural temperament of major nations in the world and the socioeconomic development of that nation from a comparative perspective."

Zhang Shan read for a while, but still no one spoke, so Zhang Shan simply watched patiently.

During this period, Zhang Shan felt that the woman opposite him seemed to have glanced at her several times. Without thinking, Zhang Shan also knew that it was because of the effect of "100% charm blessing when reading paper books" brought about by wearing the No. [-] Medal.

After exactly two hours, Zhang Shan noticed that 70×120×150%=12600 experience had been accumulated in the system, but Zhang Shan didn’t pay attention to the accumulated money:
"The current system level is level 7, and the experience required to upgrade is 2/838"

At this time, someone finally spoke. A slightly bald middle-aged man cleared his throat and said, "Welcome everyone to join our new round of 'Wei Ming Reading Club'"

After a burst of applause.

The middle-aged man continued: "Hello everyone, I am He Changyuan, the administrator of the Peking University Library. Thanks to everyone's kindness, I will be the executive host of this event."

Zhang Shan doesn't think he is "dignified", and it is definitely not an ordinary person who can become a librarian at Peking University.

Zhang Shan has heard for a long time that due to some special historical reasons, the competition for librarians in Peking University is as fierce as the selection of professors of some ordinary majors in Peking University.

Immediately after He Changyuan, he introduced several others. One of the three boys is a Ph.D. student from the History Department of Peking University;

Zhang Shan only paid attention to the names of the two women:

One is Gu Qingqing, who is studying for a Ph.D. in literature at Peking University. She looks younger than Wu Miao, and Zhang Shan is estimated to be around 25 or [-] years old;

One is Liu Mian, who is a second-year graduate student at BJ Institute of Electronic Technology, but looks like he is 24-[-].

As soon as Zhang Shan heard "Liu Mian", she subconsciously missed two poems:
"There are few willow cotton blowing on the branches, and there is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world"

Liu Mian was the one who kept sneaking glances at Zhang Shan just now.Regarding BJ Institute of Electronic Technology, although it sounds like its name is not very good.

But the background is amazing.

I don't know how much higher it is than the average affiliated colleges.

Zhang Shan couldn't help but pay more attention to Liu Mian.
