Zhou Li still agreed. As it happened, he had been quite idle staying at home recently, and the start of the school term seemed a long way off.
In the afternoon, Mr. Jiang had all the books delivered. He used silver metallic briefcases to carry them, bringing many cases. The car's trunk wasn't enough, so he also utilized the backseat space. There were so many books that they could fill an entire wall of bookshelves or occupy an entire wardrobe. Zhou Li could only ask Huai Xu to first take them back to the temporarily uninhabited old residential area and sort them out slowly.
"Then I'll entrust this to Master Zhou," Mr. Jiang said.
"It's no trouble at all."
"This isn't 'no trouble at all,'" Mr. Jiang said earnestly. "This is a huge favor, and no one in the Jiang family fails to repay a kindness. If Master Zhou ever needs anything, just give the word. As long as it's within my power, I, Jiang Huaiming, will certainly not refuse."
"It's just a job for pay," Zhou Li said.
