In fact, people, as long as they have a little way to live, they don't want to do small jobs on the construction site. Not to mention the hard work, it is still hard to boil. Li Qiming, who was bent on going to the construction site without hesitation just now, was also tired at this time.

Li Qiming asked timidly, "Two big brothers, when will you have time to come to my place to have a look?" ”

"So what are you waiting for, go now!" Qian Yongqiang stood up, pulled Huang Youcai, and said, "Let's go, how about going to see Li Qiming's book?" ”

"Let me take another bite, I just drank greedily, I didn't eat much food, and my stomach is still empty at this time!" Huang Youcai hurriedly stuffed a few pieces of fat into his mouth, so that his cheeks bulged.

"Come back and eat again!" Qian Yongqiang called Li Qiming and walked out, and Huang Youcai followed behind, running up while eating.

Li Qiming's place of residence is about half an hour's bicycle ride from here. Li Qiming rode Huang Youcai's tricycle, and Qian Yongqiang and Huang Youcai sat in the carriage. Full of hope, Li Qiming pedaled the tricycle as fast as he could, and it didn't take long for him to arrive.

Li Qiming opened the door and let the two into the house. As soon as he entered the house, a musty smell came to his nose, Huang Youcai couldn't help coughing twice, and retreated with one hand to hide his face.

Qian Yongqiang endured the irritation of foreign bodies in his nasal cavity, and in the dim light, he saw about a hundred or so books piled up under the wall.

"Li Qiming, this house is so damp, how can it be inhabited? If it rains heavily in the summer, I'm afraid I'll even have to flood my bed! Huang Youcai stayed outside for a while, covered his nose and walked in again, asking Li Qiming loudly.

"Brother Huang, I'm making you laugh, I live here just to be cheap. If I don't make any more money, I won't even be able to live in a house like this next month! Li Qiming stood next to him and said with a wry smile helplessly.

"It's about the same as the house you used to live in, right?" Qian Yongqiang looked at Huang Youcai and said with a smile, "Isn't your original house going to be flooded in the summer?" ”

Huang Youcai shook his head again and again: "This room can't be compared with the one I used to live in." The room I used to live in was pretty good when it wasn't raining, at least it wouldn't have such a musty smell! ”

Huang Youcai walked around the room and saw a small window on the wall, which he was about to open. Li Qiming hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Huang, this window can't be opened!" ”

"Why?" Huang Youcai was stunned and asked puzzledly: "If the window is opened, there will be less musty smell in your house!" ”

"Outside the window is a stinky ditch, domestic sewage and fecal garbage are inside, and a window can smoke people to death!" Li Qiming frowned.

"Li Qiming, you still don't live here, Huang Youcai's next door is still empty, you might as well move over and live, it's really impossible to live here!" Qian Yongqiang said.

"But, I don't have any money right now。。。。。。" Li Qiming grabbed his hair and looked at the kind-hearted Qian Yongqiang helplessly.

"You don't have to worry about the money first, I'll lend it to you first, and then pay it back to me when you have the money - I'd better see how much your pile of books is worth first." Qian Yongqiang squatted down close to the pile of books. Li Qiming hurriedly moved a bench and stuffed it under Qian Yongqiang's buttocks.

"Can the lights shine again?" Huang Youcai pulled a stool and leaned up.

Li Qiming shook his head. "I'll go out and buy a bigger light bulb." As he spoke, Li Qiming walked out.

"No!" Qian Yongqiang called out to Li Qiming and said, "Don't buy it, I'm going to move out soon." Let's read these books slowly, and we can see them clearly! ”

After a while, Qian Yongqiang picked out four or five books from a pile of books. He patted the dust on the book and said to Li Qiming: "Just these few books can be sold for money, and you can take the time to send the rest to the acquisition station!" ”

Li Qiming felt very disappointed when he saw that Qian Yongqiang only picked out a few books, and looked at them blankly, silent.

Seeing Li Qiming's demeanor, Qian Yongqiang smiled slightly and said: "You kid is lucky, don't underestimate these books, you can sell a lot of money!" ”

"Just these few thin booklets, can you sell them for money?" Li Qiming asked in disbelief.

"What little booklet? It's an old book! Huang Youcai grabbed the book in Qian Yongqiang's hand, stretched out it in front of Li Qiming and said, "Look at this paper, it's all yellow, it's been a year, of course it's worth it!" ”

"Huang Youcai, you sell books based on experience. When were these books published? How much can it be sold for? ”

After getting along with each other during this time, Qian Yongqiang also learned that Huang Youcai's cultural level was not high, and he only went to junior high school for one year before he broke into society, and he accidentally started selling books.

Huang Youcai usually buys and sells books based on his experience, and the tuition fee he paid at the beginning will definitely not be less.

"26 Years of the Republic of China 。。。。。。" Huang Youcai opened the copyright page of a book, read it silently, and asked Qian Yongqiang in a low voice, "What year is the book?" ”

"This is a book published in 1937." Qian Yongqiang said: "The Republic of China was founded in 1911, and if you want to convert it into the Common Era, you only need to add 11 years on the basis of how many years the Republic of China has." ”

"I don't understand!" Huang Youcai shook his head and looked at Li Qiming, who also shook his head.

Qian Yongqiang smiled helplessly.

"I don't care what year it is, as long as it has the words of the Republic of China, I will sell it at a high price!" Huang Youcai said confidently, "How tired it is to be able to do everything clearly!" ”

"Can you really sell it for a lot of money?" Li Qiming put forward the issue he was most concerned about.

"Can it be sold for about 500 yuan in total?" Huang Youcai looked at Qian Yongqiang, Qian Yongqiang took a few books and looked at them carefully, nodded and said, "Four or five hundred yuan, you estimate about the same!" ”

"Really?" Li Qiming almost jumped up with excitement, with tears in his eyes.

Huang Youcai is also a kind-hearted person, don't look at his usual bluffing, today seeing Li Qiming living in such an environment, the pity in his heart can't help but rise:

"Wait for tomorrow night, that is, on the weekend, we will take you to the ghost market, and you bite the price less than five hundred and don't sell it!"

"Brother Qian, Brother Huang, you teach me to collect and sell books, and I will learn to do business with you!" Li Qiming said.

"I can't do it, I can't be someone else's master at this level!" Huang Youcai waved his hand again and again, pointed at Qian Yongqiang and said to Li Qiming, "You really want to learn from the master, there is someone here who can be your master!" ”

"Brother Qian, will you accept me as an apprentice?" Li Qiming comprehended, turned his face to Qian Yongqiang, and looked pitiful.

"Apprentices? How is this possible? Do we still need to teach in this business? You just have to do it steadily! Qian Yongqiang was puzzled, he didn't seem to have a master in this business, and he hadn't studied with anyone.

"You're different, you read a lot!" Huang Youcai said.

"Don't scold me, just the few years I went to school, no one wanted to go out to find an easier job, and I became a high degree here!" Qian Yongqiang smiled bitterly.

"You don't have a high degree of education? Anyway, it's much taller than me, and I haven't graduated from junior high school yet! Huang Youcai turned to ask Li Qiming, "What about you, what did you graduate?" ”

"I graduated from junior high school, and I'm about the same as you." Li Qiming heard that Huang Youcai had not graduated from junior high school, and felt a little comforted in his heart, after all, he had graduated from junior high school.

"Better than me, I just finished my first year of junior high school. If I could have gone to school for a few more years, I wouldn't be like this. Huang Youcai said stupidly, and there seemed to be some regret in his heart.

"But, Brother Huang, you are much better at receiving and selling books than me. I always lose money。。。。。。 ”

"What you see now is when I make money, you don't see when I pay my tuition. Even now I pay my tuition regularly! Huang Youcai frowned, probably remembering the previous tuition payment.

"Then how much tuition do I have to pay, but I don't have any tuition to pay!" Li Qiming had a desperate expression on his face.

Huang Youcai turned to Qian Yongqiang and said: "I feel that you have a high level in this industry, and you make money every time you buy goods, and I admire you the most in this area." Last time, you made me earn 5,000 yuan in one time! You see that Li Qiming is quite pitiful now, why don't you just take him? ”

"Earn five thousand dollars at a time!" Li Qiming's eyes widened, and he was surprised and a little disbelieving.

"It was a batch of foreign books, no one else could understand it, and I couldn't understand it, but as soon as Qian Yongqiang went, the business was done, and we made a total of 10,000 yuan! Don't believe you ask him! Huang Youcai gave Qian Yongqiang a thumbs up.

"Brother Qian, can you even read foreign documents? You're amazing, you're a college graduate, right? Li Qiming's face was full of admiration.

"I'm not a college graduate, I'm a few years more than you, so I guess I'm a high school graduate." Qian Yongqiang said, "Actually, I am not as powerful as Huang Youcai said, and I didn't pay less for the tuition fee at the beginning of selling books。。。。。。 The batch of foreign books I just mentioned, in fact, I can't understand it, but I even guessed and guessed, and I felt that I could sell it for money, so I gambled, and it turned out to be a little profitable! ”

"That's not a little, ten thousand dollars! I won't be able to earn it for a few years! Li Qiming sighed.

"Li Qiming, you have just entered the industry now, don't be discouraged if you don't make any money, since we met in this foreign place, it is fate. If you don't have a good way to make money for the time being, just do it with us! Qian Yongqiang said.

"Brother Qian, are you willing to accept me as an apprentice?"

"Stupid, don't you call it a master?" Huang Youcai stabbed Li Qiming.

"Master!" Li Qiming's eyes overflowed with tears of excitement.

Qian Yongqiang smiled and patted Li Qiming's thin shoulder, which was considered to be a promise to accept this apprentice.

"And me?" Huang Youcai yelled at Li Qiming, "You only have a master in your heart, and you don't have me, a senior brother?" ”

"Senior brother?" Li Qiming's face was full of doubts, "You are also the master's apprentice?" ”

"Of course, I got started earlier than you, and I'm your senior brother!" Huang Youcai looked at Li Qiming with a wicked smile on his face and said, "You will not only listen to the words of the master in the future, but when the master is not there, you will listen to the words of my senior brother, remember?" ”

"Remember, big brother!" Li Qiming nodded again and again.

"Huang Youcai, don't make trouble, let's help Li Qiming clean up and let him move next door to live next door to you, there is no way to live here!" As he spoke, Qian Yongqiang began to pack up.

Huang Youcai hurriedly stopped Qian Yongqiang and said, "Where can the master do this rough work?" Li Qiming and I will be done in a while, this house is too choking, you go outside to breathe. ”

"Move now?" Li Qiming looked at the two and said, "I just paid this month's rent!" Fifty bucks! ”

"Do you want to wait until the rent runs out before you move in? Others say that I pick the door, and it seems that you are not bad. Huang Youcai looked at Qian Yongqiang, and the two smiled.

"Li Qiming, it's too damp here, it's not good for your health to live any longer, you can't feel it when you're young now, and when you're old, rheumatoid arthritis will probably find you." It's not worth it to spoil your body for this money. You move Huang Youcai next door first, and it is convenient for us to receive and sell goods together. I'll pay you the upfront expenses first, and when you have money, just pay it back to me! Qian Yongqiang solved Li Qiming's economic problems, which made Li Qiming grateful, and he nodded again and again.

"Hey, what's that?" Huang Youcai was cleaning up the books that had been sentenced to death by Qian Yongqiang at the base of the wall, and through the dim light, he saw a black object shining under the bed.
