Chapter 12

When Yuanyuan town arrived, however, the flow of people in the town was mixed. From time to time, we could see the savages fighting, which made the Yamen servants in the town hall busy.

After a little inquiry, I learned that the teams of more than a dozen villages and several chambers of Commerce in the vicinity were all intercepted here. At present, it is easier to come in than to go out.

There are three families in the town, Jiang, Shen and Han.

Among them, the Jiang family advocated the use of foreign forces, the Shen family advocated negotiation, and the Han family had not yet indicated which side they preferred. Therefore, it was difficult for the town to calm down before the three schools reached a consensus.

Kaiyuan village team new arrival, each family began to carry the goods on the truck.

There is no need to look for it. There is a special person in the restaurant to "purchase".

All of a sudden, Zhou lie caused a sensation: "Oh, how can you sell this blind fish? We want it from stork tower."

"Little brother, we offer 16 silver coins from Tongding building to buy you this fish king, and 50 silver coins for other fish. The price is absolutely fair. There are 66 silver coins in total. What do you think?"

"Grandma, where are you? We first saw the fish in the stork tower. "

"Come on, the one with high price will get it. The stork tower is not as rich as our Tongding building."

Xu Wanhao stood beside the bar and said, "I'm glad to hear you standing on the bar."

Without waiting for the fat man to reply, Xu Tianbao's figure has been integrated into the crowd.

At this time, Zhou lie took the heavy package from a cattle cart in the village and told the fat man to sell fish to settle the money. After that, he took his sister Xu Xiaohuan and left the motorcade.

"Damn it, you can trust me. All of you are gone in a flash."

How depressed is Zu Wanhao! No one cares about the fish except him, does he?

Among the crowd, Xiaohuan looks at the backpack behind his brother, and his eyes are full of doubts. He thinks that when he comes to the town, does he have other goods to sell?

As he walked, Zhou lie stopped to ask questions when he met something he didn't know.

In the past half an hour, brother and sister strolled around the stalls in the market. Xiaohuan couldn't understand what he was going to do.

Next, Zhou lie takes his sister to the only bookstore in the town. Before the arrogant young man rushes out, he conjures out two yellowing ancient books.

"Hey, oh, it's a lucky bumpkin again." Xiao er's eyes are full of envy and jealousy.

These days, in addition to the village office and town office school, if you want to learn, you have to pay a high price to buy books, and these books are often in the hands of local high-ranking families.

All the families in the top ranks of cities and towns have always spared no effort in collecting knowledge. In this way, monopoly is formed to consolidate our own class.

Zhou lie took two books in his hands and said, "this is a treasure book for manufacturing agricultural machinery in the old times. Although I can't understand it, it is said that it is worth a lot of money."

Hearing this, Xiao Er chuckled. He thought that the buns were the buns, and they would never be on the table.

The shopkeeper is counting accounts behind the counter. He looks up at Zhou lie and Xu Xiaohuan and says: "you can spend two silver coins to call me long eyes. The specific pricing depends on the degree of knowledge. Pindu Xuan is famous far and wide, and the price is always the most reasonable. Even if you take the book to a big city, it will certainly not exceed the price I opened. "

Zhou liexin has a ghost! However, the only bookstore in the town is this Pindu Xuan. If you want to sell books, there is no other place to go.

"Good, then ask the shopkeeper to give me long eyes!" Zhou lie said that he handed over the ancient books, which seemed extremely nervous and expectant.

Xu Xiaohuan's eyes widened. She never thought that the goods her brother brought to hand were actually two ancient books.

That's a book! With precious knowledge, staying around may help more. How can you be willing to sell it?

The shopkeeper carefully opened the page with tweezers and reminded him: "the appraisal fee is two silver coins. Don't forget that is my income."

After a short time, he closed two books and said, "there is still a good market for books related to machinery. However, this agricultural machinery book is widely spread and worth 20 silver coins at most. The second book about seeders is interesting. It should sell at a high price of 100 silver coins. "

Although Zhou lie's mind is not in selling books, but when he heard that this not thick ancient book is worth hundreds of silver coins, his heart still beat fast.

Xu Xiaohuan was also very excited. In a twinkling of an eye, he harvested 120 silver coins, which, together with the money for selling fish, was enough for his brother to marry his daughter-in-law.

You know, my mother gets up early and is greedy to get rid of the money. I have no idea that my eldest brother is so powerful that I have collected enough betrothal gifts.

Zhou lie didn't know what his sister was thinking. He seemed to have never seen the world. He nodded and said, "OK, shopkeeper, please pay me the money! However, I have been unable to understand how to say that the old times were so brilliant that they collapsed and collapsed? "

The shopkeeper in his forties, with small glasses on his nose, said with emotion: "the old times are really brilliant! But who called the demon star suddenly come? I don't understand what I told you. The radiation at that time killed everything, andAt this point, the shopkeeper asked Zhou lie, "do you want gold or silver? Gold coins are easy to carry, but now 120 silver coins are exchanged for one gold coin... "

Zhou lie laughs, opens the package and searches hard. He takes out two ancient books from it.

The shopkeeper showed a clear look, nodded and said, "it's right to be careful when you go out. I suggest you change gold coins so that it's not easy to be found out."

"Thank you very much, shopkeeper." Zhou lie asked in a hurry: "just now you said that radiation poison all things, do not know what happened when the demon star came?"

The shopkeeper turned over the book and said, "the radiation poisoning has made many things change. The country has collapsed and civilization has regressed. Up to now, no one can tell what is behind these changes."

"Well, after the identification, these two books are very complete. The introduction of rotary tiller and feed crusher is very helpful for improving mechanism skills. It is worth 200 silver coins."

The shopkeeper's business is business and he starts to calculate the money. Of course, he will not forget his own identification fees.

Zhou lie looks at the bookshelf and sees all kinds of boxes with locks on it. More valuable books should be on the second floor, but not on the first floor.

He seized the opportunity to ask: "I wonder if you have any books about monsters and demon stars?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed: "boy! It's not so easy to buy books. Remember that knowledge is class. Here are two gold coins and 76 silver coins. If you are lucky to find the ancient books next time, you are welcome to exchange them in our shop. You need to hold a special stamp when you buy books. "

Zhou lie is slightly lost in his mind, and he has a vague feeling of depression or anger.

He didn't expect that he could not buy books with money. Before entering the bookstore, he thought that he could solve the problem through high prices. As a result, people didn't sell them at all.

"I will try my best to break this kind of bondage. I will certainly break it..."
