Chapter Ninety-Six, a Set of Recipes (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation Votes!)
Tang Wen raised his eyebrows, becoming more and more surprised. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ Info glanced at the goatee's eyes, and he guessed, "You recognize me?"
The goatee shook his head and sighed: "If it weren't for you, little brother, I would still be guarding Jinshan and working hard!"
"Oh? His performance intrigued Tang Wen.
"I'm actually more than those two golden plum books. I have eight copies of the same book, in addition to the two that were sold to you. You bought those two books, and you bought them for a boss here. I passed by his door that day, and he was sitting in a chair and was reading, so I asked him curiously, and I realized that this old book was so valuable! He said that he had received two copies from a young man for 50,000 yuan! I was stupid at that time..."
Tang Wen touched his nose embarrassedly, he really didn't think that this stall owner still had this luck. Generally speaking, collectors don't say anything to stall owners or anything like that in order to keep things low. Even if you say anything, it's a price cut.
"So you sold all those books?"
"Hmm. The stall owner tugged at his beard, nodded and said proudly, "I only sold half of it, and I plan to save the other half for later." β
"Congratulations on your transformation from a stall owner to a collector. Tang Wen said with a smile.
"Well, I don't have the money to collect it. While others don't know it, just dump some old books. The goatee waved his hand.
Tang Wen, who originally planned to pick up small leaks and buy a few old books, knew that his plan would definitely not be achieved. He looked at the other two stalls and asked, "Are you together?"
"Well, the two of them used to specialize in recycling used books, and many of our stall owners went to them to buy goods. I have a good relationship with them, and they have goods in hand, so I told them and just pulled them to do it!"
This sentence made Tang Wengao look at him, he didn't think that he was still a person who did it, and he didn't forget about his wealth and wealth.
"So, I've been making a fortune lately!" he said with a smile.
"It's not about getting rich, but I've recently bought a house. After wandering for half a life, I finally have a home. His tone was a little sad.
"That's good, but you're not a Pearl native. "Tang Wenxin wants you to earn a house in Mingzhu City in the past few months, then it's really amazing.
"Haha. I'm a local person, but my home is in Chuansha Town!
"Chuansha Town?" Tang Wen showed a hint of doubt on his face. Never like I've ever heard of this place.
Goatee smiled indifferently: "Mingzhu hasn't developed there yet, it's too biased, it's normal that the little brother hasn't heard of it." It takes more than an hour to get to the city by subway line 2, and even longer by bus. β
Tang Wen nodded, noncommittal, but there was still a little doubt in his eyes, it was definitely not the first time that Chuanshazhen himself had heard it. It's familiar, but I think this place name is a bit distant. It seems to have been heard in a previous life, and it seems to have some special meaning.
"What's so fun about Chuansha?"
The goatee was stunned, and said with a smile: "There are no mountains and no water, what is there to play." β
"Oh. Tang Wen felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he simply lowered his head and looked at the old books in front of him.
"Little brother is an expert, I won't fool you with this. Come, I'll show you thisβ" said Goatee, standing up and opening the wooden box that had just sat under his ass.
Tang Wen leaned over to take a look and said in surprise: "Yo, there are a lot of comic books!" He reached out and took out a stack of comic books, carefully flipped through them, and actually found more than forty comic books belonging to a set. It is the most classic in the sixties and seventies of the last century: Sun Wukong havoc in the Heavenly Palace, Sun Wukong vs. Red Child, real and false Monkey King...
"You've got a lot of sets here! Why, are you going to sell them?"
The goatee laughed without saying a word.
The greatest wish of a comic book collector is to collect a complete set. As long as the goatee is patient, it can be sold for a high price by those collectors who lack a few copies in their hands.
This three-foot square box is full of valuable old books. Some of them are from the Republican period. For example: 1963 Jiajing Hengzhou Prefecture Chronicles, three volumes. It is probably similar to the value of a hardcover martial arts, almost seven or eight thousand; Feng Zikai's carriage society and the first edition are estimated to be worth about three thousand; Yu Pingbo's Yanjiao Ji first edition book is a little higher, estimated to be ten thousand yuan.....
Although it is impossible to pick up the leak, this box of old books also opened Tang Wen's eyes. Suddenly, he reached into the palm of his hand in the box and took out an old book wrapped tightly in brown paper.
"What is this?" he asked.
The goatee laughed very much, touched his beard and said word by word: "Red Book!"
"The Ruby Book!"
"Hehe, Yanbian Publishing House's protracted war. β
"I'm afraid it's hundreds of thousands! No wonder boss, your house has been bought, it seems that after two months of work, the house in the city can be afforded!" Tang Wen didn't open it to see, first, it was old and easy to scatter, and then he wasn't really interested, so he simply put it back.
"There are so many things, and the little brother doesn't have a catch?" Goatee probably thought that Tang Wen himself was a collector, and he belonged to the children of rich families who had money to play and collect used books.
Tang Wen didn't explain, looked at the other two stalls, and said, "Those two also have good goods?"
"There are things! I'm afraid that the little brother won't like it..."The goatee said very casually, Tang Wen knew as soon as he heard it, and the things of those two were probably not as good as the ones in the stall in front of him.
"It's okay, I'll just take a look. β
It seems that through the action of the goatee, he knew that Tang Wen was an expert, so the other two stall owners simply pulled out a small box from under their bodies. Carefully take out old books one by one. It's just that both quality and quantity are far worse than a goatee. There is not a single red treasure book at the bottom of the box.
Tang Wen looked at it, stood up in the lost eyes of the two and was about to leave, and glanced at their stall a few more times. Suddenly, I saw a set of good recipes. I flipped through the pages and found that there were all kinds of books from one to eleven.
He turned his head and asked, "How much does this set of books cost?"
Hearing him ask for the price, the goatee came over in pieces. Seeing that he was asking a set of recipes, they were a little unsure, and they looked at each other. The stall owner stretched out five fingers.
Tang Wen laughed and said, "Five yuan or five cents?"
The stall owner was stunned, the goatee coughed, and said tentatively: "Little brother wants this set of books to go back to collect?"
"I like to cook!" Tang Wen said seriously. This is not that he is lying, the real value of this set of "Famous Chinese Recipes" compiled by the Food and Beverage Administration under the Ministry of Commerce of China in the early days of the People's Republic of China lies in its content!
At that time, the state department persuaded many famous chefs at that time to take out many of their own cooking secrets! It can be said that as long as you follow the steps carefully, with a certain amount of patience and effort, then becoming a chef is just around the corner.
Obviously, the three owners of the used bookstall in front of him have not been in contact with the figures in the chef world.
