Of course, Jiang Ping did not go to school after leaving home, but rode his bicycle in the opposite direction. With memories of his past life, he knew that the collector who was very interested in ancient books should currently live in Huanhua Lane in the old-city-district.

It is said that Huanhua Lane has a history of hundreds of years, and even in an ancient city like Sioux City, it can be called a historic street. Jiang Ping just rode to Huanhua Lane and immediately liked it.

Traces of history can be seen everywhere in this small old street, whether it is the bluestone paved road or the traditional style houses with white walls and black tiles, it seems to have made time go back to a hundred years ago.

Huanhua Lane, which can only accommodate two cars walking side by side, has a gently flowing river on one side and the residents' yards on the other. Many homes have tall trees in their yards, and the dense foliage extends from the courtyard wall to the street, casting shade for pedestrians on the street. On the riverside, there are neat stone strips, and in many places the stone strips extend directly into the river, so you can have a close contact with the river as long as you stand on the stone bars.

However, while the scenery of Huanhua Lane is pleasant, many people believe that such scenery will soon disappear. The reason for this is that there are rumors that this centuries-old street will soon be demolished, and that some real estate developers are planning to build high-end residential areas here.

However, Jiang Ping, who has memories of his previous life, knows that Huanhua Lane was finally retained as it was, and this is thanks to Zhao Guoquan, who became the ruler of Su City a few years later. It was he who vetoed the real estate developer's business plan to develop Huanhua Lane and several old streets around it, and instead preserved this area of ancient architecture in the Jiangnan area as a kind of protection of ancient culture.

Although Zhao Guoquan's decision was questioned a lot at the time, it turned out that his decision was very correct. A few years later, the area around Huanhua Lane became one of the famous attractions in Sioux City, which is not only very famous in the province and the whole country, but also attracts many foreign tourists to come for sightseeing.

And the houses in this area have also become the most expensive properties in Sioux City, and they are often priceless. Being able to own a house near Huanhua Lane has become a symbol of status and strength, and no one wants to sell it at all.

Of course, for Jiang Ping, those things in a few years are all floating clouds, and now he just wants to sell the set of ancient Qing Dynasty books in his hand. However, Jiang Ping only knew that the collector named Sun Wenhai lived in Huanhua Lane, but it was not clear which one it was. He pushed his bicycle and walked a little around Huanhua Lane, and saw a courtyard door open in front of him, and a kind old lady was sitting in the shade of a tree. So he hurriedly quickened his pace and stepped forward, ready to inquire where Sun Wenhai lived.

Jiang Ping came to the old lady and greeted her with a smile: "Hello, old lady." ”

The old lady also nodded at Jiang Ping, and then asked him with a smile: "Young man, are you here to rent a house?" ”

Jiang Ping was stunned for a moment, and then found that there was a piece of paper pasted on the courtyard door, on which were written four very beautiful calligraphy: house for rent.

Seeing these four words, Jiang Ping knew that the old lady thought that she was here to rent a house, so he hurriedly shook his head at her and said, "You misunderstood, I just want to ask you about someone." ”

Although Jiang Ping didn't come to rent a house, the old lady's attitude towards him didn't change, and she still asked with a smile: "Oh, who are you looking for?" ”

Jiang Ping asked politely: "There is an uncle named Sun Wenhai who lives in Huanhua Lane, I have something to do with him, but I don't know what number he lives." ”

"Oh, you're looking for Xiao Sun." The old lady pointed behind her and said, "He lives at number 325, you can see it if you go a little further." ”

"Thank you, old lady." Jiang Ping thanked the old man, and then pushed the bicycle and continued to walk.

The old lady looked at Jiang Ping with admiration on her face, and muttered to herself: "This young man is very polite, there are not many such children now......"

Of course, Jiang Ping didn't know that he had made a good impression on the old lady. With the old lady's guidance, he soon found No. 325 Huanhua Lane, a very quiet courtyard.

Jiang Ping knocked lightly on the courtyard door a few times, then took two steps back and waited quietly. According to Jiang Ping's understanding of Sun Wenhai in his previous life, he knew that the other party was a person who paid attention to etiquette and tradition. Therefore, Jiang Ping also deliberately said that he had to be polite, so as to leave a good impression on Sun Wenhai, and the transactions that came to him were only good and not bad.

Jiang Ping paused for a while, and the courtyard door was slowly opened. A middle-aged man with a thin face appeared from behind the door, and when he saw Jiang Ping standing quietly two steps away, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

The middle-aged man glanced at Jiang Ping and was sure that he didn't know this young man, so he asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"May I ask if this is Mr. Sun Wenhai's home?" Jiang Ping said politely: "I have a set of ancient books from the Qing Dynasty here, and I want to ask him to help take a look." ”

This thin middle-aged man is none other than Sun Wenhai. According to his character, he is not very good at talking nonsense with strangers. However, when he heard that Jiang Ping had a set of ancient books from the Qing Dynasty in his hand, Sun Wenhai, who loved books like his life, couldn't help but feel moved, nodded to him and said, "I am Sun Wenhai." ”

"Hello Mr. Sun." Jiang Ping took the initiative to introduce himself to Sun Wenhai: "My name is Jiang Ping, and I am a student in the third year of No. 2 Middle School. ”

I heard that Jiang Ping was still a high school student, and Sun Wenhai was a little more interested in him. In Sun Wenhai's impression, today's students prefer electronic products such as computers and game consoles, and have little interest in ancient books. And Jiang Ping actually brought a set of ancient books to visit, but this made Sun Wenhai's impression of him a little better.

So Sun Wenhai made a rare exception, and took two steps back and said to Jiang Ping: "Come in and talk about it." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Sun." Jiang Ping thanked him first, and then followed Sun Wenhai into the courtyard.

Sun Wenhai took Jiang Ping to a room on the east side of the courtyard, where there were several tall bookshelves full of books bound in thread. Jiang Ping is also an expert, and at a glance, he can estimate that there are thousands of books in this room. As far as he knew, Sun Wenhai's collection of books was much more than that, and other books may have been preserved in other places.

But even the thousands of books in front of you are enough to make people breathtaking. Jiang Ping knew that it would take a lot of energy and financial resources to collect so many books, and he couldn't help but have a little more appreciation in his eyes.

Sun Wenhai was also paying attention to Jiang Ping's reaction, and nodded secretly in his heart when he saw this. He could also see that this young man did know ancient books, and he couldn't help but look forward to what Jiang Ping brought.
