Chapter 13, Cheats

Grandma, what's going on with the one next door to us as soon as you enter the yard, hasn't anyone lived in it for a long time?

That yard! It's been a long time since I've lived there, that yard was originally another courtyard in our quadrangle, it used to be where the young master lived, I remember it seemed that my father-in-law sold it to others at that time, it was originally connected to our backyard, and there was a previous door on the wall next to your house, but it was sealed after it was sold.

And what about their households! Anyone else?

Grandma Lu heard Jiang Yan's words, thought about it, and then said, Where did they move to Houhai, I don't know the specific place, but why did my grandson inquire about that yard today.

I wanted to see if I could buy it, Jiang Yan thought about it for a while, and directly told Grandma Lu his plan.

That yard is not cheap, but grandson, we don't have to buy it, my house will be left to you after that, enough to live.

It's not grandma, I think so, you see that we are doing a dangerous job after all, I want to leave a way back for us anyway, I think the courtyard behind is very good, I bought them, and secretly got a basement while it was being renovated, and we can hide in it if there is anything, otherwise we are opening a door, and it is convenient to go out at night to run errands.

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Grandma Lu didn't say anything, bit off the thread of the mending clothes with her teeth, and then spoke.

It's okay for you to think about it and wait for grandma to get you the money. After saying that, he was ready to stand up.

Hearing Grandma Lu's words, Jiang Yan hurriedly pulled her and said, No need grandma, I have money, I really have money.

When my master left, he left a large amount of money to hide in one place, and after two days, I saw that the situation was stable and went to get the money back, grandma, you still have your money! I see that I have used a lot of your money these days.

Your monkey cub gave my grandmother my money to see me is your money, and after speaking, he patted Jiang Yan on the head.

Feeling the old lady's intimacy, Jiang Yan could only laugh.

However, this also eliminated Grandma Lu's purpose of giving Jiang Yan money, but the box of fiat currency was still forced into Jiang Yan's hand by the old lady, saying that it was money to buy furniture.

Without a word, Jiang Yan slept very comfortably in the new house, what he didn't know was that the old lady next door was not at ease when she fell asleep, and came to see Jiang Yan a few times.

Early the next morning, Jiang Yan, who had eaten, was ready to go out for a stroll, and by the way, he went to buy medicine for Grandma Lu.

When I was about to go out, I heard my grandmother say that I would go to Baicaotang to buy medicine, and I was so scared that I stumbled.

Why did Baicaotang also pop up? What kind of world did you cross over?

But then these were all forgotten by Jiang Yan, and he was wandering around the stall of Liulichang at this time.

Liulichang Street is located outside the BJ Peace Gate, it originated in the Qing Dynasty, when most of the people who came to Beijing to participate in the imperial examination lived in this area, so they sold books and calligraphy and paintings here, and the Ming Dynasty's prosperous Qianmen, Dengshikou and the Chenghuangmiao Book Market in Xicheng were gradually transferred to Liulichang. Booksellers from all over the country have also set up stalls, built offices, and sold large collections of books here. The bustling market and convenient conditions have formed a "Kyoto Elegant Tour", which has gradually developed into the largest book market in Beijing, forming a cultural market where humanities gather, and culture-related pen, ink, paper, inkstone, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc., have also developed.

Jiang Yan squatted in front of a bookstall and flipped through the books on it, almost all of the books in it were old-fashioned thread-bound books, and the cover on it was also in traditional Chinese, Jiang Yan was no stranger to this font.

Hey, the medicinal diet prescription, there is no kitchen in the spare time, the palace pharmacopoeia, seeing these books, Jiang Yan was secretly surprised in his heart, and then opened the book of the medicinal diet prescription, which is not a printed book, and the book that has been carefully written down by others in small letters, holding the book fan, can smell the fragrance of ink.

I opened it again and took a look, and the inside of the book was very clean, and it looked like it had been carefully maintained.

This made Jiang Yan secretly surprised in his heart, but his face did not show it, Jiang Yan also found seven or eight such encapsulated books in this bookstall.

Seeing these books, Jiang Yan put them down and decided to buy them all.

What kind of place is Liulichang, it is a place where all kinds of antiques gather, these books are also rare books in ancient times according to Jiang Yan's calculations, and their cultural value is immeasurable, if they don't buy it earlier, they will regret it.

Boy, buy it or not! If you don't buy it, don't flip around, before Jiang Yan opened his mouth, the owner of the bookstall was not happy.

Buy, of course buy, I don't know how this book will sell.

As soon as he heard that Jiang Yan wanted to buy it, the owner of the bookstall immediately changed his face, looked at Jiang Yan and said with a smile on his face.

This little brother is really a good eye, I can't hide it, these books are all books sold by an old man of the previous dynasty in my place, almost all of them are lonely, if you miss it, you won't have this good opportunity, I think the little brother is also a book lover, I don't want much, the books in it are optional, if you want to take them down, it's not a problem, 20 million fiat currency, you Lao Liu can wrap the round.

The stall owner was a man in his forties, who looked very sloppy, but the fabric he was wearing was not bad, it was made of expensive silk, but it was a little dirty and he couldn't see the original color, his face was a little pale, and he looked completely malnourished.

What Jiang Yan didn't know was that this stall owner had been setting up a stall here for several days, and not a single book had been sold, and the few people who were squatting on the bookstall were almost all the owners of these books, and they were squatting here just to add a little popularity to this bookstall.

However, Jiang Yan naturally heard the meaning of the owner of this bookstall, originally he only wanted to buy a few books that he valued, but he didn't expect the boss to mean that he wanted to let him round the schoolbag in this bookstall.

I looked at the books I had found, and then at the books on the other side of the bookstall, which might have been the cause of maintenance, and saw that they were a little worn, and some of them had been bitten by rats.

However, Jiang Yan also noticed when he asked the price that when the boss said the price, these people who were originally squatting here to read the book looked at Jiang Yan with their eyes, and their eyes were green, as if they wanted to eat people.

At that moment, Jiang Yan understood in his heart, these people were probably the boss's trust, Jiang Yan, who originally wanted to buy these books, saw the boss and these trusts wearing, and understood the cause and effect.

If you don't anticipate the mistake, these people are the old and young people that the boss said.

Jiang Yan is clear about the virtue of people like them, since the hardcore crops have fallen, these have nothing left, what to do and what to do, the old and young are not less in this glaze factory to sell their own cultural relics and antiques, it is estimated that these books are as they said are the only books, before I only cared about the books of the same material as those books, and the others basically did not read, look at the books, the paper is yellowed, and the years are continuous, maybe you can really exchange a lot of good things from it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan paid attention in his heart. So he opened his mouth and said to the stall owner. Your price is really a lot more expensive, the boss doesn't see that I can't fool me, no, let's talk about how much each copy sells!

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, the owner of the bookstall hurriedly waved his hand, no, no, I don't have this idea, my book is indeed worth this price, and I don't want it randomly.

How dare the boss admit it! However, he did have this idea in his heart, and he was ready to fool when he saw Jiang Yan at a young age.

However, when Jiang Yan exposed this, he still denied it.
