Chapter 14 History Books Have Secrets
Bringing these hardcover editions back and displaying them there also looks very cool.
"Boss, can you open those history books?"
"That won't work. These are hardcover editions for collection. I spent a lot of money. Even if you accidentally break a corner, I will lose a lot."
"Boss, what you said doesn't make sense. How do we know if there are any problems with those books if we don't read them? What if you fool us?" Cai Cai said unhappily.
"Little girl, you don't know me, Lao Huang, but everyone around you knows who I am. In business, we talk about integrity. I just collected these from an old Hutong courtyard house this morning. A scholarly family that has been passed down from generation to generation, and it is said that the ancestor was a high-ranking official in the Qing Dynasty."
"It has been passed down to the current generation. The younger generation worships foreigners and is unwilling to come back after studying abroad. In addition, he is the only child in the family, and his parents have passed away one after another. He returned to China a few days ago to sell the old courtyard house. These are all picked up from inside. of."
"The story told is more true than the truth, who will believe it. Hero, let's go."
"Whose girl are you from? This mouth is too bad." The boss almost flew into a rage when he choked.
"Boss, don't be as knowledgeable as her. I'll take a look again." Li Mo smiled, his eyes concentrated, and his eyes with different pupils suddenly penetrated [Tang History]. The light was transmitted, forming eighty or ninety halos that spread around.
This can meet good things!
Then his eyes moved to other books, and in the [History of the Qing Dynasty] book, he saw milky white light shining out, covered by seventy or eighty halos, which is enough to show that there are valuable treasures hidden in it.
Li Mo withdrew his gaze and said leisurely: "Boss, I have read it. Each hardcover book has a seal of collection and seal. It is well preserved. It should be as close as I told you. Tell me about the price. If it suits me, I will give it a try." Take it home, to tell you the truth, I am a student of the History and Archeology Department of Peking University, and I am very interested in these books."
"No wonder I feel that the little brother is full of books, and he is really a person who has read poetry and books." The boss smiled and said more enthusiastically, "I spent 1,800 yuan to buy each volume, so I have to earn a lot of money. Fortunately, if the little brother really likes it, you can give me an integer of 10,000 for the History of the Five Dynasties."
"Boss, you open your mouth in the lion. I have similar hardcover collections at home. I heard from my grandfather that these are worth two to three thousand."
Before Li Mo had time to bargain, Cai Cai used her innate ability to slash in half and then slash again.
"Little girl, if you continue to have such an attitude, I will not do this business. I can't do it at a loss and be thankless."
The boss waved his hands straight, a little angry.
Li Mo pulled her down, thinking to himself that if you do this again, I won't be able to miss it.
"Boss, give me a sincere price."
The boss looked at Li Mo's serious appearance, then glanced at the angry Cai Cai, gritted his teeth and said, "I won't sell it, I'd rather sell it to someone who knows how to do it."
Li Mo saw that what he said had a lot of backbone, but his eyes kept drifting this way, and he knew in his heart that he was retreating to advance, so he couldn't help but sighed and said: "It's a pity, there are still relatively few hardcover editions on the market. I guess you can save one or two thousand, so I gritted my teeth and bought it. Cai Cai, let’s go back to the bookstore and look for it.”
"I said Boss Huang, the young man is a man of culture, since he likes you so much, let him fulfill his wish."
Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, the old man next to him started to speak enthusiastically for them.
"Young man, this boss Huang is quite honest in his business. I think two thousand is a bit cheaper. At least let him earn some money for cigarettes and alcohol."
Li Mo stopped and said to the boss: "The old man is right, so how about it, I will take all 8,000 and 5,000, and I won't go into it if you earn more or less."
The boss said with a flesh-cut expression on his face: "Little brother, today I count you as my friend."
After Li Mo transferred the money on his mobile phone, he quickly left with his packed books.
"Old Zhang, I will transfer a thousand yuan to you later." Boss Huang smiled crookedly when he saw the text message.
"Boss Huang, you will make at least 80% of the money. You are very lucky today. You opened the business not long after you arrived."
"If such a brat doesn't take the opportunity to kill him once, when will he wait?"
The two of them looked at each other and smiled wickedly. This was not the first time they sang a double reed opera, but this time it went surprisingly smoothly.
"Hero, are you short-hearted? The hawkers in this place eat people and don't spit out their bones. Look at you, you are so happy to be slaughtered. Are you panicking with too much money?"
"How do you know I have a lot of money?"
Li Mo hummed a little tune. He bought a large travel backpack in a bag shop not far away, and it was much easier to put the books in it and carry it on his back.
Li Mo was looking forward to the moment when the secrets hidden in the history books of the Five Dynasties were revealed, and he gradually fell in love with this process of treasure hunting and revealing secrets.
"Hero, since you are a fool with a lot of money, don't blame me for killing you for a big meal at noon."
"Don't worry, rice is enough."
Cai Cai rolled her eyes a few times, leaned close to him and asked in a low voice, "Are you really a student of the Department of Archeology at Beijing University?"
"It's coming soon, don't you believe it?"
Li Mo turned his head to look at her, the little girl was full of doubts, and couldn't help laughing: "I don't believe it."
Really can't chat, Cai Cai rolled her eyes.
The two walked straight along the alley, and turned into another avenue in about ten minutes. The architectural style here has become retro. There are two-story Chinese-style buildings on both sides of the road, and there are shops on the first floor. Today is Saturday and the weather is fine. There are huge crowds of people shopping, as if they have returned to the Town God's Temple in the magical city.
"Cai Cai, let's go eat first." Li Mo rubbed his stomach, being aroused by the smell of delicious food.
…
The old roast duck restaurant that Cai Cai mentioned is quite high-end, and being able to open near Panjiayuan is itself a symbol of strength.
"Give us a hall with two seats. Let's have some lemonade first, and then bring us the menu for the big meal."
The waiter guided them to a seat by the window, and the menu was placed in front of them.
"Here is a roast duck, duck rack for soup, and a little more salt. Then there is a salt and pepper shrimp, Aolong fried rice, braised lion's head, tea chicken, breaded crab with egg yolk, fish in golden soup with pickled cabbage, and a sweet and sour jellyfish. , first this is not enough and add more.”
"If the two of you eat, the dishes are a bit too much." The waiter kindly reminded him, hesitant to speak, and looked at Li Mo.
"She's a foodie, maybe not enough."
"The two of you may not know that some dishes are airlifted from abroad, so they are more expensive." The waiter kindly reminded them again that they looked young, so don't eat the overlord meal.
Li Mo finally understood, took out a black gold card from his wallet and handed it to her: "I won't make things difficult for you."
"Thank you sir, I will place an order right away."
After working in the service industry for a long time, she saw at a glance that this was a bank's black gold card. A few million yuan was swiped casually, and a mere few thousand yuan was not enough to fit between teeth. These two are definitely rich second generations.
The delicious food was passed on one by one, and the dishes were cooked directly. While eating, he expressed emotion: "There are two things in a person's life that can't be lived up to. One is life, and the other is food. Heroes, I will not be polite."
Li Mo's hands are not slow, and the diners next to him frequently look sideways, really afraid that they will fight over it.
Ten minutes before eating, Cai Cai's cell phone rang. She glanced at the connection and said, "Old Comrade Zhu, I'm eating. Don't worry, how could an invincible beautiful girl like me be hungry?" Don't worry, I ordered noodles with miscellaneous sauce and added a poached egg. Well, you old man also needs to eat and drink well. Don't be afraid of losing your job. It's a big deal to start all over again. Okay, goodbye."
Li Mo watched her eat a lion's head with a fork, and her cheeks puffed up after eating, and asked curiously: "This meal of noodles with mixed sauce is not cheap, who are you fooling?"
"Old Zhu in the family is unemployed in middle age, and he has been a little depressed recently. I saved the pocket money I gave me. If I hadn't met you, I would definitely have mixed sauce noodles at noon today."
"What does your dad do?"
"Lawyer, I haven't made it through more than ten years. Some people say that his personality is too straightforward. One is one, and the other is two. This kind of personality is most suitable for legal assistance, impartiality, but it is too rigid to be used in lawsuits." .”
"It's honesty to put it nicely, and it's a donkey temper to put it badly. I took a case a while ago, offended my employer, and made a lot of trouble. I had no choice but to quit my job."
"Everything will be fine." Li Mo poured her a glass of lemonade, "Give me your dad's phone number, maybe I will consult him about legal business in the future."
"Call me."
Cai Cai took Li Mo's phone and operated it.
"Old Zhu, call him whenever you need it. Don't reveal that I gave it, or he will catch me and ask non-stop."
