Lin Yi looked at the set of "Zizhi Tongjian", and saw that set of books, a set of 10 hard hardcovers, was in excellent condition, almost up to nine or five grades. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info opened to see, only to see that the paper on the inner page has shown earthy yellow, beige paper shows simple and elegant, a full 10 volumes placed together, full of spectacular atmosphere. On the copyright page of the first volume, it is written: Published by Ancient Books Publishing House, first edition in June 1956, first printing in Shanghai in June 1956, print run: 1-3000, price: 35.00 yuan.

Seeing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed, this was the "Zizhi Tongjian" he dreamed of, but the stall owner was obviously also a master, especially a pair of small eyes flashing with shrewd light, he looked at Lin Yi, and then crooked his mouth and said: "Brother has a good eye, this set." Zizhi Tongjian" is a edition and a print, the quality is good, it is a collection of the elderly, and now I can't find one on the market. Put it at home and swing it like that, and it will immediately make your taste rise a few people's grades. As the saying goes, it is better to have a mountain of books at home than to have a mountain of books at home, and it is better to read books than to eat and drink...... You can't buy this kind of thing for any amount of money, so the minimum price of this set of books is 6,000 yuan! To be honest, if it weren't for the family's urgent need for money, I wouldn't have sold such a good book! ”

When Lin Yi heard this, his heart suddenly cooled, 6,000 yuan was not too much for him, but Lin Yi clearly knew that this set of books was only about 3,000 on the Internet, and it was obvious that the other party regarded himself as a "chick" who didn't know how to read.

But Lin Yi didn't want to give up this great opportunity, so he said to him: "This set of books is too expensive, higher than the price on the Internet, if you can, I will take 3,000 yuan." ”

The stall owner tilted his mouth, glanced at his eyes, and said contemptuously: "Brother, you are joking! How much money online can I not know? It's all priceless, and you can't buy it with money! See, five or six years, shelving is now more than sixty years, sixty years a jiazi, that is to say, this set of books is enough to be my grandfather. It costs two dollars to invite grandpa home, and 6,000 yuan is the lowest, and no one is missing! ”

It seems that this seller is either a dizzy person, or a money obsesser, dizzy asking for a price, and wants to eat at one time.

Just when Lin Yi was thinking about how to take down this set of books, a white and fat man came over next to him, with a briefcase under his arm, his hair combed black and shiny, a dark red jacket, beige pants, and a pair of yellow casual leather shoes underneath, which looked very trendy and fashionable.

The man obviously also liked this set of books, so he took a copy and flipped through it casually, and said in his mouth: "Oh, it's five or six years of "Zizhi Tongjian", which was written by whoever wrote it...... The ...... who smashed the cylinder"

The stall owner hurriedly said: "Sima Guang ---"

"Yes, yes, it's Sima Guang, I almost thought it was Sima Qian--- the books he wrote are very good, I love to read them...... But when will I be able to read such a tome---" The fat man looked very worried.

The stall owner hurriedly said: "Most of the tome is level enough, you think, put such an ancient book in your study or office, turn it over in your spare time, and the guests can also discuss with each other, how cost-effective." ”

The fat man smiled, "That's what I said." I've always loved to do academics...... It's just that I've contracted a few projects in the past few years so I don't want to study. Reading is good, you can do anything, be wise, understand politeness, and teach us to be humble. ”

The stall owner cocked his thumb and praised busily: "As soon as you hear this, you know that you are a person who has read a lot of books and is knowledgeable!" This book has a fate with you. ”

The fat man smiled when he was praised, so he asked magnanimously, "How much money is this book?" ”

The stall owner glanced at Lin Yi, and then at the fat man: "The price is 8,000!" ”

"I said, how much money?" The fat man frowned. "This old book costs 8,000 yuan, brother, you're not authentic!"

The stall owner smiled, "Actually, I didn't dare to ask for more, 8000 is really not high, this is a book of five or six years, all of them are a few years old, you think, how much time has been stored, what you buy back is not a book, it is an antique, it is knowledge, it is taste!" ”

I have to say, this stall owner's mouth is really powerful, one by one, the fat man hesitated a little, as if he was thinking about something, and suddenly stood in a slap and said: "5000 yuan, I took it!" ”

The stall owner hesitated and said, "No, this set of books was very high when I received it." You go around me 3000 at once, I can't stand it. Besides, at first glance, you are doing big business, and it is estimated that these two or three thousand are just a bottle of wine money for you, and you will earn back all of them after drinking a few bottles of Feitian Moutai Wuliangye. ”

The fat man smiled again, "You have a very accurate vision, how can you see that I am in a big business?" Tell you, I just contracted a project, tens of millions, and your book is really enough for me to pay for a drink. ”

The stall owner hurriedly said: "That's it, you know it by looking at your face, the heavenly court is full of square circles, the eyes are big, and the mouth is wide to eat the Quartet---"

"Don't praise me, I can't stand people's praise--- but you really know how to say that you can go to see the face without selling books." The fat man said with a smile, "For the sake of your mouth being so good at talking, I won't bother with you anymore, just add a little more, 6,000 yuan, that's the price, no matter how much I can't pay!" Sixty-six Shun, auspicious! ”

The stall owner also knew that this kind of person seemed to be easy to fool, but he also had to stop in moderation, and he couldn't really treat people as fools, so he hurriedly said: "Borrow your auspicious words, 66 6 Shun will be 66 Shun!" This book is yours! As he spoke, he was busy helping the fat man pack this old set of "Zizhi Tongjian".

Lin Yi was still holding a copy in his hand, and he was in a daze at the moment, not because the stall owner really sold it for a high price of 6,000 yuan, but because he suddenly realized that the wisp of book fragrance he smelled before was not from this set of "Zizhi Tongjian", but from a small thin book next to this set of books.

Lin Yi was surprised, how could this be, his nose almost "lost his eyes", so he heard the stall owner say: "Brother, I said this brother, the book in your hand...... Help me, it's already sold. ”

Lin Yi came to his senses and hurriedly returned the book, the fat man saw that Lin Yi seemed to really love this set of books, but he snatched it himself, and inevitably felt a little proud, so he said: "This friend, I'm sorry, this set of books has a fate with me; Besides, 6,000 yuan is not something that anyone can afford. ”

Lin Yiwan, as well as this kind of swagger, smiled and said: "Yes, yes, good books must be read well, and it is not enough to just put them on the bookshelf." ”

The fat man glanced at Lin Yi: "It's my business whether I can see it or not, some people can't see it even if they want to, and they don't have the money to buy it, hehe!" ”

Lin Yi didn't bother to argue with him, so he took the thin book curiously, and sure enough, a wisp of bookish fragrance came.

Look at it again, but it is a Republic of China book, looking at the name, it is very peculiar --- "Virgin Collection".

The fat man stretched his neck, and when he saw it, he smiled and said, "This brother has a special taste, he likes this kind of thing." ”

Lin Yi smiled and opened the book to carefully identify it.

According to Lin Yi's previous experience in buying books, he first checked the copyright page of the book, the editor is Cao Juren, the publisher is Huang Jihui, the printer is Liangxi Library, and the general distribution is Liangxi Library, priced at 3 jiao. First published on February 25, 1925.

The name "Cao Juren" may be very unfamiliar to many literature lovers, after all, he is not as famous as Lu Xun and Hu Shi. In fact, as long as you are familiar with Lu Xun, you will definitely know him, because he and Lu Xun are the most well-known pair of "literary friends".

Not to mention anything else, "The Complete Works of Lu Xun" and "Letters" alone received twenty-five and a half letters from Lu Xun to Cao Juren. When Lu Xun died, Cao Juren collected Lu Xun's poetic writing into elegiac couplets:

Wenyuan is bitter and depressed, and a pawn hesitates to be a lone halberd;

Gaoqiu is lonely today, and Fangquan is scattered with pain.

In order to better commemorate Lu Xun and learn from Lu Xun, Cao Juren and his wife Deng Keyun compiled and printed the "Lu Xun Handbook" (published by Shanghai Mass Book Company in 1937 and reprinted by Shanghai Expo Bookstore in 1946), and in 1956, Cao Juren wrote "Lu Xun's Commentary" in Hong Kong, and in 1967, he compiled "Lu Xun Annals", plus more than 20 single articles he wrote to recall and study Lu Xun, with a total number of more than one million words.

Therefore, as long as you are a big collector who plays with the new literature collection, you are basically familiar with "Cao Juren".

After turning the title page, there is a preface, also written by Cao Juren. At this time, Mr. Cao Juren was twenty-five or sixteen years old, teaching in the junior high school of the Shanghai Republic of China Women's Craft School, and he compiled and published this collection of exercises for his students, and introduced in detail the ins and outs of the book's publication.

Roughly speaking, this booklet has 16 articles, and it is the work of seven girls, and the collection is called "The Virgin". The motive for printing is to cultivate young women in literature and art.

Then the styles of the seven authors were introduced, with Hua Qinbao, Bai Peixuan, and Sun Fuying being the fullest. Like Hua Qinbao's "The Return of the Sister", Bai Peixuan's "Residual Dream", and Sun Fuying's "Rain Silk Wind Film", it can already be said that they have stepped into the threshold of literature.

According to Lin Yi's speculation: When this collection was published, the feminist movement in Shanghai had already died down, and being able to have such a great perseverance to publish such a women's book shows how much courage Cao Juren has as an editor, his good intentions for students, and his promotion and training of students, which cannot but be admired.

Just when Lin Yi was carefully flipping through this book of the Republic of China, which had not been included in the "New Literature of the Republic of China", the fat man also stretched his neck and stared, wanting to take a look at the "improper" content on this book--- otherwise how could this guy read it so seriously and so carefully?

Could it be that this is a little yellow book that is more yellow than "The Golden Vase of Plums"? The fat man thought evilly. The name is "Virgin Collection", Nima, and she is also ecstatic! (To be continued.) )
