Chapter 580 Manuscript
“Keep them busy.” Zhou Zhi saw that there was really no way to stay in this place: “Let’s go out and talk.”
“Hey.”
Come here Outside the stall, the boss opened the door A few bricks were spread out under the board and stacked up: "Brother, let's sit down and talk!"
Zhou Zhi had no choice but to sit down and took out the manuscript covered in kraft paper: "This, boss, you should have some here. Right? ”
"Yes, there are several boxes!" The boss became angry when he saw this book. He took it, rolled it up into a roll, and clap it in his hands: "That time I was not feeling well, so I went to collect the books, prodigal women. , I’m going to screw you up!”
“What do you mean?”
“Our industry is actually a bit underwhelming,” the boss said, “I won’t hide it from you, these books are all. Let's go to the waste paper recycling station The most expensive waste paper is cardboard, the kind used to make boxes, followed by pictorials, like "The People's Liberation Army Pictorial". ", "Popular Movies", all are good paper."
"The first thing is the book, and the last thing is the notebook."
"My mother-in-law and I originally sold junk paper. Later, we collected a lot of waste paper. I saw that many of the books were in good condition. It was a pity to dispose of them as waste paper, so I picked out some good ones and bought one. I slowly made my way here to the old bookstall.”
“My wife went there by herself to collect books. At that time, she collected about ten boxes, including the first few boxes. It’s a serious book and illustrated newspaper, but my wife was careless and didn’t check it all. When she brought it back, she found that half of it was worthless.” "I want something like this. Find it for me and give me a price."
"What is this?" the boss asked tentatively.
“You are an honest person, and I won’t lie to you.” Zhou Zhi said: “This thing is indeed worthless in the eyes of most people. We suspect that it is an article written by an old professor, and the content is exactly the same as I am a professional, so I want to buy it and study it.”
"Then..." The boss rubbed his hands: "Then those things you just said you wanted to buy...do they still count?"
"Of course those things also count. As I said before, it's only 30 cents a book." No matter how thick or thin it is." Zhou Zhi said: "I may have to choose some if they are not published by Zhonghua Book Company."
"Little boss, you also saw it. Given my conditions, logically if you want to buy so many books from me, these boxes of things should be given to you for free, but...but..."
"It doesn't matter, you can just make an offer first, and I'll see if I can Unacceptable.”
“Then I’ll make a price, and you can decide whether it’s suitable or not, and we’ll discuss it later...”
"Please take out the things first and let me see if they are what I want."
"Ah, yes, yes, please wait for a while..."
After a while, the boss dragged the things out from the room. Six cardboard boxes came out, and then another one was dragged out from behind the door: "Brother, come here Look, that’s it! The little girl just pulled it from this box!”
(Two hundred words are omitted here because of the review)
There must be one about these boxes! A bizarre story, but the truth is probably unknown.
Zhou Zhi looked through these notes and had a very strange feeling in his heart. He always felt that he should be very familiar with these things, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before, and he couldn't help but feel startled.
"Big brother...big brother?" The boss's call rang in his ears.
"Huh?"
"Do you want these things?" The boss looked worried about gain and loss. "Ah yes! They are all similar to the first one, I want them all." Zhou Zhi nodded.
"That's it." The boss immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "There are seven boxes here in total. Let's count it at 20 yuan per box and charge you 140 yuan. Do you want it?"
"What the hell? One hundred and four? Let me take a look first!" A rough voice A voice sounded behind Zhou Zhi: "Xiao Laoer, do you want to make a fortune? Is your stall worth a hundred and fourteen?!"
Zhou Zhi turned around and saw a bald man standing with a fierce look on his face. Behind him, standing behind him, was Zhang Cheng.
Zhou Zhi was a little speechless. I was afraid that there might be an accident and asked you to contact me. Who did you call?
Zhang Cheng stood behind the man with a smile, his mouth hidden in his beard silently mouthing - "It works."
"Director Liu, I'm not messing around here..." The boss suddenly put on a grimace: "This big brother wants seven boxes of paper books, and we are just talking about it."
"Have we agreed?"< br>
“Let’s talk, let’s talk!” The boss nodded quickly: “Don’t worry about it, Director Liu...”
“Ahem...” Zhang Cheng coughed behind Director Liu. Voice.
“Well, since we’ve already talked about it, I won’t say anything more.” Director Liu crossed his arms, and only then did Zhou Zhi notice a hoop on his sleeve: “There is a serious fire hazard here, and the fire department My comrade has been here several times, and you can see above that the paper is almost touching the wires!”
"We won't be next to each other after today." The boss nodded quickly and bowed: "This big brother has to buy a lot of books, and the quantity is very large. If you come here today, the cartons in my shop will not be able to touch the wires."
"There are cigarette butts!"
"There are no cigarette butts!" The boss quickly picked up the ashtray from the books and put it on the brick where he just sat: "Why don't you pack up your things and put them away temporarily? Of I used to smoke outside, and the ashtray was also outside!"
After saying that, he quickly took out the Hongtashan that Zhou Zhi had just given him, and took one out: "Director Liu, take one! "
"I believe it!" Director Liu took the cigarette and said, "You guys, please don't cause trouble to the market. If the rectification notice is issued, no one can save you!"
"Yes, yes... let's change it first, and we'll change it today..." The owner of the second-hand bookstore nodded.
"Then there's nothing going on?" Director Liu turned to look at Zhang Cheng: "Look, Xiao Zhang..."
"There's something going on." Zhou Zhi hurriedly raised his hand Hand: "Director Liu, we bought a lot of books today. I'm afraid our car won't be able to fit them in. Can you Could you please call us a pick-up truck?”
“I wonder if there are any bookshelves for sale there that sell used furniture. We’re not picky, just be sturdy and durable.”
“The truck is fine. Easy to handle, I have to ask about the bookshelf and will get back to you later," Director Liu said.
"Then I'll bother you, Director Liu." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you."
Zhang Cheng secretly compared his thumbs with Zhou Zhi, wondering if this guy was also a good person.
Firstly, this is a benefit to Director Liu. Director Liu goes to contact these things, and the two parties negotiate a small price difference, and the price difference becomes his own benefit fee;
Secondly, it is to give him a benefit. Director Liu takes care of the opportunity for favors. He helps others introduce business, and others will naturally accept his favor;
The third is to give the bookstore owner here a deterrent. Director Liu will come back soon, and as soon as others leave Something went wrong.
But on the surface, it seems to be watertight, not pretentious at all, and things are done without making a fuss.
First I gave the boss one hundred and forty yuan to get the materials, which was also regarded as a deposit for buying books. The boss then turned around and joined in the battle of packing up the books.
