Chapter 90 Thirty Thousand Yuan Ancient Books
As soon as Ma Weidu arrived at the courtyard, he saw Liu Hongmin and Chen Yu carrying several big bags.
“What are these?”
“A reply to the reader!”
Liu Hongmin handed the bag to Chen Yu, “Come in!”
Ma Weidu followed Liu Hongmin into the study, "Someone contacted me again today and wanted to sell some ancient books. The price is relatively high, 30,000 yuan."
Liu Hongmin came immediately when he heard the price was high. Interested, "Has the other party made a reading list?"
"Yes!" Ma Weidu took out the reading list and handed it to Liu Hongmin.
Liu Hongmin couldn't help but get excited after reading the introduction on the book list, "They are all medical books?"
Ma Weidu nodded, "I also think these medical books are very valuable, so I Came here early in the morning.”
"Let's go! Go and see..."
Liu Hongmin just stood up, but sat back down.
"These are Chinese medicine medical books. You have to find a good Chinese medicine doctor to read them."
Ma Weidu nodded, "There should be many famous doctors in the Chinese medicine hospital. Why don't I go to the Chinese medicine hospital to visit? ?”
“Yes, you can tell them. If these ancient books are true, I can print the contents of these books for all Chinese medicine practitioners to learn.”
Ma Wei. Du nodded, "This will make the conversation a lot easier."
Liu Hongmin sent Ma Weidu out, and then saw Chen Yu and the others coming back.
"So fast?"
Chen Yu said: "I happened to see the post office car, so I put the letters directly on the car."
Liu Hongmin nodded, The stamps on the letters are all affixed according to the face value of the stamps on the letters, so there should be no mistakes.
After saying hello to Ma Weidu, Chen Yu went on patrol with his people. He recruited fifteen veterans for Liu Hongmin, who was appointed as the security manager by Liu Hongmin.
All security guards work in three shifts, guarding the entire yard 24 hours a day to prevent anyone from entering.
With the protection of security guards, Liu Hongmin felt much more at ease and felt much more at ease when sleeping at night.
A few days later, Ma Weidu came to visit again.
"I have made an appointment with Professor Mei, the director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, and I can bring those ancient books to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital at any time. I have also notified the seller. It depends on when you are available."
Liu Hongmin was very happy and counted the time.
"Then this Saturday."
Ma Weidu came to visit again on Saturday, Liu Hongmin took Chen Yu, and the three of them went to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital together. Not long after, I saw a man riding a bicycle. On the back seat of the bicycle was a brown paper bag containing many books.
“Are you the writer Liu Hongmin?”
The man asked with a smile.
Liu Hongmin nodded, "I am."
"I have admired the name for a long time, and today I finally met the real person." The man shook hands with Liu Hongmin enthusiastically, "They can be sold to you, so they have a good place to go."
Liu Hongmin smiled, you ask such a high price, others may not be able to afford it.
Ma Weidu: "Mr. Wang, let's go in first! Let Professor Mei take a look at those ancient books. If they are as precious as you said, money is not a problem."
Mr. Wang : "I'm not worried about money. Who in Beijing doesn't know that Writer Liu is rich."
He took down the book and followed Ma Weidu.
Ma Weidu led the three people to Professor Mei's office, "Professor Mei, I'm sorry to bother you."
Professor Mei is a energetic old man with bright eyes. He nodded to Ma Weidu, and then focused on the brown paper package in Mr. Wang's hand. Mr. Wang carefully placed the brown paper bag on the table, carefully opened the rope, and put the ancient books on the table.
Professor Mei was also very cautious. He wiped his hands with a handkerchief, then put on white gloves, picked up an ancient book, and slowly opened it.
After reading for a long time, he said: "The content inside makes sense, it should be true."
Mr. Wang said proudly: "It must be true, otherwise I wouldn't dare to ask for such a high price." "
Liu Hongmin did not refute, but asked Professor Mei: "Professor, what is the content recorded on it?"
Professor Mei did not answer, but picked up the ancient book again, It slowly turned over. After flipping through the entire ancient book, he said: "I took a quick look at it just now, and I feel that the content recorded above is very valuable. However, the things recorded above need to be verified."
"This is Naturally! "Although Liu Hongmin doesn't understand medical skills, he also knows that many treatments require multiple clinical trials.
"Professor Mei, look at the others."
Professor Mei nodded, "You guys sit down first, this time it will take a long time."
said After that, he ignored the others and started rummaging through the ancient books one by one.
Liu Hongmin invited a few people to sit down, "Mr. Wang, are you in a hurry for money?"
Mr. Wang nodded, "Yes, my father is sick and needs to go to Xiangjiang for treatment. . Otherwise, I would be reluctant to sell them.”
Liu Hongmin: "What disease does uncle have?"
"Cancer!" Mr. Wang said with a sigh: "I am just doing my last filial piety. When all the money in the family is spent, I will be considered as dedicated."< br>
The three of them were in awe, and not everyone could afford to use all their wealth to treat their father's illness.
It’s just, “I’m afraid this money is not enough?”
“I will make up some more.”
Liu Hongmin said: “I have a lot of Hong Kong dollars in my hand. If Wang If there are other ancient books in my hand, I can buy them with Hong Kong dollars."
"Really?"
Mr. Wang asked in surprise.
Currently, the country’s foreign exchange is tight, and there is a limit on the exchange of foreign currencies. Therefore, even if he collects enough money, he can only exchange it into Hong Kong dollars bit by bit, which will definitely delay the treatment.
The Hong Kong dollars in Liu Hongmin’s hands do not have this restriction. If treated in time, the old man's illness might be curable.
Thinking of this, he immediately said: "I still have many ancient books at home, which are the treasures of the old man. If I can save the old man's life, it means that the old man has not cherished them in vain."
Liu Hongmin's face was a little strange, " Uncle, don't you have any objections?"
"What do you have?" Mr. Wang said: "If the old man is gone, I can't keep these ancient books. It's better to sell them for some money now. The old man's life is the best way to deal with them. Besides, even if my father knows about them, he will be happy."
Liu Hongmin nodded in understanding, antiques only like them. Only in human hands will it have value.
Professor Mei didn’t stop until noon.
“They are all good ancient books. Many of the prescriptions and treatment methods recorded in them are things I have never seen before. If these prescriptions and treatment methods are effective, it will greatly improve the medical level of our country. . ”
With Professor Mei’s assurance, Liu Hongmin felt relieved.
"Mr. Wang, I have bought all these books. The current exchange rate between RMB and Hong Kong dollars is 1:2.4. I will exchange it for you 72,000 Hong Kong dollars. However, you have to give me an account in Xiangjiang. Okay."
Mr. Wang was a little embarrassed, "I don't have an account in Xiangjiang."
Liu Hongmin thought for a while, "If you can trust me, you can leave the money with me temporarily. When you come to Xiangjiang, I can transfer the money directly into the hospital’s account.”
"Really? Thank you so much." Mr. Wang said excitedly: "Just wait for my news, I will sort out the remaining ancient books, and I will bring you any one you like."
