This unique "treasure offering activity" is over, Lin Yi, as a dark horse killed halfway, stepped on others a few times unruly, and then showed his hole cards, took the lead, and won the championship himself.

Therefore, in the eyes of Zhu Fatzi and others, Lin Yi is a-

A calculating man.

Someone who is good at drilling.

People who are good at disguise.

Lin Yi's evaluation of himself is-I was wronged!

From beginning to end, Lin Yi never thought about stepping on others to make a fortune, and even if he did, he wouldn't do it, after all, he was a scholar.

The pronoun of a reader is old-fashioned, pedantic, and discordant with the world, but a reader also represents what to do and what not to do, at least, the bottom line of a reader is much deeper than many people.

But now, the big guy is so awkward to see him as a "reader", who has ever seen a reader who made 3 million at once? Who has ever seen such a scholar who does his best to harm others and benefit himself, pull others off the horse, and climb up on his own?

Regarding everyone's misunderstanding, Lin Yi could only smile bitterly, fortunately, 3 million real money could make him feel a little comforted.

Xu Haoming obviously felt that the atmosphere was not right at this time, but he ignored it, and instead laughed loudly and said to Lin Yi: "Lin Yi, you know that from the beginning of this business, you have gone from entering the industry to entering the product. ”

"What, intake?" Lin Yi didn't understand.

Xu Haoming continued: "Originally, in the antique market, playing old books was not in the stream, but in recent years, there have been sky-high prices of ancient books and rare books, hundreds of millions of calligraphy, seventy or eighty million manuscripts, playing is more powerful than antique jade, and even more than many people imagine. So now the used book market is getting stronger and stronger, and those players who specialize in playing old books are also the same as the quality of old books, divided into ten levels, ten is the best, the following are nine players, eight players, seven players, ......"

"What about the stalls?" Lin asked.

"They don't enter the product, they don't even enter the stream, they just beg for a living." Although Xu Xiaoming's tone was flat, he did not mean to look down on him.

"Then ......" Lin Yi glanced at Cao Yidao beside him.

Cao Yidao listened to his chest, "Brother, I've been playing for so long, I'm ashamed, it's only a second grade." ”

Xu Haoming explained: "The so-called grade mainly depends on the player's financial resources, eyesight, and experience, and of course, the most important point, knowledge. Lao Cao's financial resources are average, but his eyesight is not bad, and the most important thing is that he has a lot of experience. ”

Cao Yidao sighed, "After seven or eight years of mixing, it is only the second grade, which is equivalent to three years to be promoted to one level, I am a mixed seniority, it is estimated that it will be like this in the future, at most it will be satisfied if it is promoted to the third grade." ”

Seeing that Cao Yidao was so pessimistic, Lin Yi was even more puzzled, "Who set this grade, and what are the benefits, why did you make it so high-level?" ”

Xu Haoming smiled, "Where is there no hierarchy in this society now?" Equality for all? It's okay to trick children. As long as there are circles, there will be ranks. Since you are now in the product, I might as well tell you that the old book circle is not like the antique circle, it is difficult to mix, and it is difficult to rise. Knowing the billionaire bibliophile Wei Li, even Guotu envies his collection and drools, and he is only eight products in the circle of second-hand books. ”

"Once you enter the product, you will enter the eyes of many people, and you will have the opportunity to contact more precious rare books, and participate in more tastings and auctions that only the big guys can participate in...... Go out for a walk, as long as you meet peers, you will have unexpected privileges, from officials, down to pawns, and even give you face, don't ask me why, people with knowledge, people with experience, people with financial resources, people with eyesight, even if they are thrown into the garbage dump, they will be respected. ”

In fact, Xu Haoming has not said a word, now a certain chief in charge of the power of China, is the biggest book lover, legend has it that he has an alias "hXX" on a large book website, is the largest buyer of the site, likes to participate in various types of book auction activities, no matter what books he sees, he must get his hands, even those big collectors with strong financial resources are willing to bow down, so that the number of books alone is as high as tens of thousands of books every year...... And this rumor will come out as long as you search a little bit on the used book station on the Internet, which shows that many people are like a torch.

Of course, this is a rumor, and it is difficult to tell whether it is true or false.

But one thing is certain, the rise of the used book market, especially the ancient book market, is at least somewhat related to the political economy.

Lin Yi didn't expect that there would be so many ways to play with an old book, so he asked again: "Then who will determine this level and who will divide it?" ”

Xu Haoming smiled, "That's a good question." Yes, the world is big, there are so many people playing with books, and the amount is rising by hundreds of thousands every year, don't you see that there are more and more people who like to buy books in the thrift market? But unfortunately, most of these are individual customers who are Taoshu, and they are not in the stream, and if you want to enter the stream, you must at least make a big deal worth three million, so that you can be qualified to enter the product. And this qualification is determined by the three-rank player, you are very lucky, it happens that I am a three-pin. ”

Xu Haoming's understatement made Lin Yi surprised, you must know that Xu Haoming is strong no matter how he looks at it, but he ...... Only three products.

seemed to see Lin Yi's question, Xu Haoming said with a smile: "No way, I play too much, I only know a little bit about the old books, if you hadn't shown your hand to draw tigers just now, it is estimated that you would have been eye-catching, so it would be good to be able to mix three products." ”

After listening to Boss Xu's words, Lin Yi had a different tongue, originally thought that he was just playing with old books and picking up a leak, but he didn't expect the water to be so deep inside. If you don't pay attention, you have become a first-class player.

So what about the future, how many grades can you rise to?

Lin Yi is full of reverie.

……

When you come, you will pick up a million luxury cars, and when you go, you will send a million luxury cars.

got into the car, Cao Yidao pushed Huang Jiaotou to the passenger seat to respond to the driver's eldest brother, he and Lin Yi sat in the back, and then leaned on the leather seat, rubbed it twice with his back, like an old cat rubbing itchy, so beautiful that he was upside down, and said, this is life, a nourishing life. He also said that the rich people all sit in the back, and there are special drivers to drive, and those nouveau riche who have no knowledge and no education will spend millions to buy cars and drive them themselves.

Lin Yi sat down and didn't speak, still thinking about the player's level upgrade, Cao Yidao sang a one-man show by himself, his mouth couldn't stop beeping, seeing that Lin Yi still didn't speak, he blinked, touched Lin Yi with his elbow and said, "What's wrong, angry?" I'll admit that I didn't consult you with the scriptures, but I didn't do anything wrong. After all, we didn't come all the way to travel and see the scenery, let alone to eat that kind of nourishing noodles and watch people offer treasures to show off...... We also have a purpose and a mission. Although I have a little more eyes, it's also for you. You see, aren't the Buddhist scriptures sold now, 3 million, real money, really, my old Cao has no credit and hard work. ”

Lin Yi knew that he had misunderstood, and he didn't explain, but just said lukewarmly: "Your share is indispensable." ”

"Tut, look at what kind of person I am! I'm not worrying about the introduction fee with you, I hope you can understand me, even if you can't understand, don't keep a straight face, young, what if the muscles harden in the future, a face is not crying or laughing, and there is no shame, who would dare to marry you! ”

Lin Yi is completely out of line, this old Cao's mouth is too cheap.

Seeing that Lin Yi couldn't help laughing, Cao Yidao also laughed with Lai: "That's right, it's less than ten years of smiling, how uncomfortable it is to hold your face." Having said that, you may think that I am too snobbish and chase money for everything, yes, I am different from Lao Guo. He Guo Zixing talks about righteousness on the road, no matter what business he does, he will make friends and hearts, I Cao Yidao just likes to take advantage, and I have nothing to do to cut you, anyway, I have the most fun in the used book business, you love to buy or not, love to sell or not. ”

Cao Yidao rubbed his big bald head vigorously with his hands, "But I also have principles, what is my principle, that is, as long as I believe that you are a friend and a person you can befriend, I will not cut you in my life, on the contrary, I will only stick a knife in your ribs!" Lin Yi, make friends with me! Lao Cao said.

Lin Yi was stunned, and thought that Cao Yidao was joking, but looking at his eyes and tone, this thing turned out to be ...... True.

Lin Yi didn't know how to answer, mainly because he had a preconceived idea of Cao Yidao and had a very bad impression, compared to Guo Zixing, this product was too slippery, Lin Yi didn't like to make friends with those who had a lot of eyes, too tired, and too fake.

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't speak, Cao Yidao suddenly sighed, his face was a little gloomy, and said: "It seems that my impression in your heart is really bad, if you change to Lao Guo, maybe you will agree early in the morning." ”

Seeing that Cao Yidao said so pitifully, Lin Yi's heart softened, and he couldn't help but say: "Haven't we been friends for a long time, what else are we going to make." ”

"What did you say?" Cao Yidao glared. "What you said is true, aren't you fooling me?"

Lin Yi laughed, "Why am I fooling you, can I still trick you two into eating dates?" ”

Cao Yidao: "......"

Then he patted Lin Yi on the shoulder and said heroically: "Okay, from today onwards, your brother Cao will recognize you as a younger brother." ”

Lin Yi: "......" how does it feel weird, who just now wanted to make friends with a dead face, and now it looks like he is slapping him.

Huang Jiaotou, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat in front of him, didn't speak much, but at this time, he suddenly said, "Get on the thief ship." ”

What does it mean?

Lin Yi knew that it was okay if Huang Jiaotou didn't open his mouth, as soon as he opened his mouth, it must be a quote of truth, and he was still thinking about the truth in it, at that end, Cao Yidao was excited, and said it again with his teeth and claws, and told Lin Yi, if you have something to talk about in the future, with Brother Cao covering you, none of us are afraid. It seems that he is Lin Yi's leading brother, Lin Yi's backbone, and an amiable and respectable good boss. After being excited, Cao Yidao said to Lin Yi very kindly: "Xiaoyi, since we are not outsiders, your brother Cao will be cheeky to beg you for something." ”

Seeing Cao Yidao's appearance and eyes, Lin Yi chuckled in his heart, and said with little confidence: "What's the matter, you say-"

Cao Yidao showed a look of hope, "It's the tiger, I didn't expect you to paint so well, shelving Ming'er, you can paint a few pictures for me, one in the living room, one in the guest room, and then a few more in my bedroom......"

Lin Yi fainted, "Do you have a tiger hole, what are you doing with so many tigers?" ”

Cao Yidao smiled: "Brother, I'm not that good, besides, when I see those paintings, I can think of you, brother, how good!" ”

Lin Yi rolled his eyes, a painting of 5,000 oceans, don't you think of me!
