Chapter 579 Manuscript

"Let them be busy." Zhou Zhi saw that there was really no place to stay: "Let's go out and talk."

"Hey."

Arriving outside the stall, the boss took out a few bricks from under the propped up door panel and stacked them up: "Brother, let's sit down and talk!"

Zhou Zhi had no choice but to sit down and take out the manuscript from the kraft paper cover: "This, boss, you should still have it here, right?"

"Yes, there are several boxes!" The boss became angry when he saw the book. He took it, rolled it up into a roll, and patted it in his hands: "That time I was not feeling well, so I went to collect the book.

, you’ve been tricked by others!”

"How do you say that?"

"Our business is actually a bit underserved." The boss said, "I won't hide it from you, we all get these books from the waste paper recycling station, and we also collect them as waste paper when walking around the streets on weekdays."

"The most expensive waste paper is cardboard, the kind used to make boxes, followed by pictorials, such as "People's Liberation Army Pictorial" and "Popular Films", which are all good paper."

"The first-class ones are books, and the last-class ones are notebooks. The prices of various types of paper are different."

"My mother-in-law and I actually sold junk paper at first. Later, we collected a lot of waste paper. I saw that many books were in good condition. It was a pity to dispose of them as waste paper, so I picked out some good ones and bought one.

The old bookstall slowly made its way here."

"My wife went there to collect the books that time. She collected about ten boxes at that time. The first few boxes were all serious books and pictorials. My wife was careless and didn't check them all. When she brought them back, she found that half of them were of this stuff.

, worthless at all!”

Zhou Zhi's heart skipped a beat when he heard these words: "I want something like this. Find it for me and give me a price."

"What is this?" the boss asked tentatively.

"You seem to be an honest person, and I won't lie to you." Zhou Zhi said: "This thing is indeed worthless in the eyes of most people. We suspect that it is an article written by an old professor, and the content is exactly related to my major, so I

I want to buy it and study it.”

"Then..." The boss rubbed his hands: "Then what you just said you wanted to buy...do they still count?"

"Of course those should also be counted. As I said before, it doesn't matter how thick or thin a book is for 30 cents." Zhou Zhi said: "I may have to select some if they are not published by Zhonghua Book Company."

"Little boss, you have also seen my conditions. Logically speaking, if you want to buy so many books from me, these boxes of things should be given to you for free, but...but..."

"It doesn't matter. Just make an offer first and I'll see if I can accept it."

"Then I'll make an offer. You can decide whether it's suitable or not. If not, we'll discuss it later..."

"Please take out the things first and let me see if they are what I want."

"Ah, yes, please wait for a while..."

After a while, the boss pulled out six cardboard boxes from the room, and then pulled out another one from behind the door: "Brother, come and see, that's all! The little girl just pulled the book from this box!"

(Two hundred words are omitted here due to review)

There must be a bizarre story about these boxes, but the truth is probably unknown.

Zhou Zhi looked through these notebooks and had a very strange feeling in his heart. He always felt that he should be very familiar with these things, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before, and he couldn't help but feel startled.

"Big brother...big brother?" The boss's call rang in his ears.

"ah?"

"Would you like these things?" The boss looked worried about gain and loss.

"Ah yes! They are all similar to the first one, I want them all." Zhou Zhi nodded.

"That's it." The boss immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "There are seven boxes here in total. Let's calculate it at 20 yuan per box and charge you 140 yuan. Do you think you want it?"

"What the hell is it just one hundred and fourteen?! Let me take a look first!" A rough voice sounded from behind Zhou Zhi: "Xiao Laoer, you want to make a fortune? Is your stall worth one hundred and fourty in total?!"

Zhou Zhi turned around and saw a bald man standing behind him with a fierce expression. Standing behind him was Zhang Cheng.

Zhou Zhi was a little speechless. I was afraid that something unexpected might happen and I asked you to contact me. Who did you call?

Zhang Cheng stood behind the man with a smile, and his mouth hidden in his beard silently mouthed - "It works."

"Director Liu, I'm not messing around here..." The boss suddenly made a grimace: "This big brother wants seven boxes of paper notebooks, and we are just chatting."

"Did we discuss it?"

"It's over, it's over!" The boss nodded quickly: "Don't worry about it, Director Liu..."

"Ahem..." Zhang Cheng coughed twice behind Director Liu.

"Well, since we've already talked about it, I won't say any more." Director Liu crossed his arms, and Zhou Zhi noticed a hoop on his sleeve: "You have serious fire hazards here. Firefighters have been here several times.

Okay, look up there, the paper is almost touching the wires!"

"We won't be next to each other after today." The boss nodded quickly and bowed: "This big brother has to buy a lot of books, and the quantity is very large. If you come here today, the cardboard boxes in my shop won't be able to touch the wires."

"And cigarette butts!"

"There are no cigarette butts!" The boss quickly picked up the ashtray from the books and put it on the brick where he just sat: "Why don't you pack up and put it away temporarily? I used to smoke outside, and the ashtray was also outside.

!”

After saying that, he quickly took out the Hongtashan that Zhou Zhi had just given him from his pocket and took out one stick from it: "Director Liu, take one."

"I believe your ghost!" Director Liu took the cigarette: "You guys, it's true that you should stop causing trouble in the market. If the rectification notice is really issued, no one can save you!"

"Yes, yes... let's change it first, and we'll change it today..." The owner of the second-hand bookstore nodded.

"Then there's nothing wrong?" Director Liu turned to look at Zhang Cheng: "Look, Xiao Zhang..."

"There is something." Zhou Zhi quickly raised his hand: "Director Liu, we bought a lot of books today, and our car may not be able to load them. Could you please call us a small truck?"

"Also, I wonder if there are any bookshelves for sale there that sell used furniture. We are not picky, as long as they are sturdy and durable."

"The car is easy to handle. I have to ask about the bookshelf. I'll get back to you later." Director Liu said.

"Then I'll trouble you, Director Liu." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you."

Zhang Cheng secretly compared his thumbs with Zhou Zhi, thinking that this guy might also be a good person.

This is a benefit to Director Liu. Director Liu contacts these things and negotiates a small price difference between the two parties. The difference becomes his own benefit fee;

Secondly, it gives Director Liu the opportunity to do favors. If he introduces business to others, others will naturally accept his favor;

The third thing is to give the bookstore owner here a deterrent. Director Liu will come back soon, and something will happen as soon as others leave.

But on the surface, it seems to be watertight, not pretentious at all, and things are done well without making a fuss.

I first gave the boss one hundred and forty yuan to get the materials, which was also regarded as a deposit for buying books. The boss then turned around and joined in the battle of packing up the books.
