Chapter 275

"Snapped."

Lin Jie closed the box again.

He took a deep breath, calmly swallowed the tea in his mouth first, then gently put the teacup on the counter, and asked Mo En to come and take it away with a smile.

Seeing the back of the girl leaving temporarily, Boss Lin's smile gradually disappeared, and he opened the box again with a dark face.

"Good guy, I thought I just wanted these things, but I didn't expect to be more ruthless. I ate them all as snacks... Is this edible?"

"Well, for this guy who doesn't know what kind of creature it is, it may indeed be edible, but this appetite is too good."

Lin Jie stared blankly at the empty box, this time even the shadows were gone.

Apparently, the perpetrators were skilled in their techniques and escaped quickly.

Lin Jie couldn't even take another look at the treasures that he just got... He didn't even know what was in them!

Suddenly, he felt an indescribable sound coming from his ear.

Some are like babbling, some are like whispering. It is impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman, and it is impossible to know what language is used.

But Lin Jie could understand the meaning.

He is both unfamiliar and familiar with this voice, because this is the time when he traveled from the past, and he has not seen the "silhouette" version of the entity Xiao Hei, the form of the latter's dialogue with him.

Now the other party obviously has a physical body, but still uses the method of talking through the air.

I have to say, it turned out to be like a child who secretly ate snacks and was discovered by his parents, afraid of being beaten, and then hid guiltily and pretended nothing happened.

"Pick it up? You ate something wrong and you want to return it to me? That's useless to you?"

Lin Jie was taken aback when he heard the words, and then quickly stretched out his hand to receive it.

Although I don't know what the situation is, it probably means that Xiao Hei still has something left for him.

Somewhat relieved, at the same time there was a trace of expectation in his heart, could it be the most valuable golden apple?

A strange twisted point appeared in the midair, spinning and protruding outward, and "spit" out an object.

The object fell into Lin Jie's hands, and he took a closer look.

It was the stone fragment with the flame pattern.

Lin Jie: "..."

you are vicious!

Lin Jie held the stone in his hand, which was basically the same as ordinary crushed stone except for the lines on it, and his face froze with a little anticipation just now.

The distorted point in midair was smoothed out by an invisible force, and the raving voice also disappeared.

Xiao Hei left.

Lin Jie twitched the corners of his mouth, entered a state of meditation dumbfounded, and put this fragment into his dream.

"Well...the runes on it are still of great research value. Although they are incomplete, according to Candela's memory, these runes seem to be some kind of language from the first era, which is more advanced than the language of the second era. ancient."

He reluctantly comforted himself to accept this fact, and then frowned in distress:

"It's just that even Kendela has never learned this kind of writing. I want to understand the meaning of it. I guess I can't find relevant information even in the library of the Truth Society."

Lin Jie rubbed his chin: "Miss Ji seemed to say that these things were excavated by Roller Resources during the development of the lower city, that is to say, there may be a large number of ancient relics in the lower city, maybe There will be what I need..."

He shook his head again: "The lower city is restricted. If I want to go down, I need the consent of various institutions in the central area, and there must be a more reliable reason. It must not be done in the name of an individual. Roller Resources It's also difficult for me to give a quota... Forget it, I'll talk about it later."

Lin Jie sighed, stood up and stretched, then turned and walked to the middle of the bookshelf.

Now, his main task is to select suitable books for the Luoer Resource Development Group—the agent of his unnamed bookstore—according to the contract, and hand them over to them for sale.

As for how to sell it, how to set the price, and how much the commission will be, all of them have been clearly written in the contract jointly drawn up by Mo En and Ji Zhixu.

What Lin Jie has to do is to choose the right books every month, and then wait for Ji Zhixu to come to pick them up. The next time Ji Zhixu comes to the door, it is time to report the sales and sit and get the money.

Just as Lin Jie was worried about before.

Not all the books he has here can be sold. Many of the contents written in the books are things that have never appeared in this world. Once they are understood by interested people, they will definitely cause turmoil.

So he has to be more cautious.

Lin Jie flipped through his thoughts, and the books on the entire bookshelf changed accordingly, and were adjusted to the novel section.

That's right, from his point of view, the literary work with the least risk and at the same time more popular with the general public is the novel.

Even if there are some things that don't exist, they can be explained by the word "fiction", and readers will make up their own brains, which is relatively safe.

He also often recommended various novels to the customers who patronized the bookstore before, and he has not encountered any accidents so far.

Among them, popular literature such as romance novels and fantasy novels are less risky.

After all, they are subjects that the people like to hear and see... Whether it is Earth or Azir, they can all empathize.

Lin Jie first won a copy of "The Count of Monte Cristo".

This novel with the theme of "revenge" can be described as a standard classic "cool novel", coupled with the ups and downs of the plot, I believe it can be sold well in another world.

Then he thought about it, and picked up another copy of Pride and Prejudice.

This book is a classic among love stories, and it is not only a novel describing love, but also contains discussions on human nature, so it will not be inferior.

The opposite of this book is "Jane Eyre" which is as famous or even better... Lin Jie has never had any idea about this book. Perhaps in that era, this book can be regarded as a representative work of feminism , a symbol of freedom and equality.

But if there is any literary praise for this book, it is purely far-fetched for future generations.

From the content of the plot alone, this book is not fundamentally different from "The Domineering President Falls in Love with Me"...

Lin Jie complained in his heart, and took another copy of "The Old Man and the Sea" and "Water Margin".

Needless to say, "The Old Man and the Sea" is Hemingway's masterpiece, which shows the human spirit to the extreme.

As for "Water Margin", Lin Jie personally feels that among the four great classics, this is the only one that has the least cultural gap, at least it is not so difficult to understand. Anyway, this time it is used for agency sales, so let's try to put it on the market , to see if there will be a market.

"These four books feel almost the same, and there are some types of them."

Lin Jie nodded in satisfaction: "After all, this is the first time we have cooperated, and each book will be given fifty... no, one hundred will be fine."

Be ambitious!

He took the book and took two steps outside, then stopped suddenly, then backed away, and then took a copy of "1000 Classic Home Cooking (365 Days Color Complete Edition)" from the bookshelf.
