Siheyuan: He Yuzhu's rebirth, burying the stick alive
Chapter 167 Jia Dongxu Purchases a Banned Book
When the stall owner saw that someone was interested in the books he was selling, he quickly stepped forward to introduce them.
"My story is about a man and 108 women, including Ximen Qing and Wu Dalang."
"There are secrets that Yutu and Wang Gang have to tell, the daily lives of Houyi and Chang'e, and the most realistic portrayals of the lives of Liu Bei and Guan Yu..."
Listening to the stall owner's introduction, Liu Haizhong couldn't help swallowing.
These books deserve to be called banned books. Regardless of whether they are good or not, just by listening to the names and introductions, you can tell that they are definitely wild.
"Give me one copy of each. How much is it?"
After sighing for a while, Liu Haizhong asked.
When the stall owner saw Liu Haizhong's generous look, he quickly smiled and said.
"Two dollars for each book, eleven books in total, twenty-two dollars."
"However, I'll give you a special price. I'll only charge you twenty dollars."
"Comrade, let me tell you, these books are rare copies and will definitely appreciate in value in the future."
After Liu Haizhong heard the stall owner's offer, the muscles on his face twitched several times and his expression became extremely ugly.
Twenty yuan is almost a month's salary for an ordinary worker.
How is this expensive?
This is simply a money grab.
If the stall owner knew the existence of a certain anchor, he would definitely refute Liu Haizhong.
"Liu Haizhong, what do you think is so expensive about this book?"
"Is it okay to keep selling at this price for so many years?"
“Ask yourself, why couldn’t you afford it for all these years?”
"Look for the reason in yourself. Are you slacking off all day at work?"
"Have wages increased over the years? Has income increased?"
"If you don't get a raise, it means you're not working hard enough."
"What's wrong? You still can't afford it?"
"I suggest you rent out your extra house. That way, you can collect rent every day."
"Also, when you're off work, drive your private car more often and make more money!"
"What? You don't have a house or a car? How is this possible?"
"The experts said that the average deposit of the people is 500,000 yuan. Where is your money?"
"Where did your money go?"
……
Liu Haizhong looked at the book in front of him, shook his head gently and spoke.
"too expensive……"
"For ten books, I'll give you a maximum of two dollars."
In this black market, it is normal to bid high prices and then bargain.
The stall owner shouted out a price of twenty yuan, and Liu Haizhong bargained for two yuan, which was also a very normal thing.
"Cough cough..."
The stall owner coughed lightly, a hint of displeasure appeared on his face as he spoke.
"Comrade, it's wrong for you to bargain like this."
"I've already given you a lot of discounts, and you still want to buy ten good books for two dollars."
"You are really daydreaming. I won't sell it..."
When the stall owner finished speaking, he waved his hand and signaled Liu Haizhong to leave quickly.
If he bought these banned books for himself to read, Liu Haizhong would definitely leave without thinking.
But these banned books are a stepping stone, given to He Yuzhu, so they must be taken down.
"Boss, I really want it."
"Give me a sincere price."
Liu Haizhong spoke up bravely.
The stall owner did not reply immediately. Instead, he looked Liu Haizhong up and down.
After a while, the stall owner finally spoke.
"Eighteen..."
When Liu Haizhong heard that the stall owner did not lower the price much, his face became extremely ugly.
He even had an impulse to rush forward and ask the stall owner why he didn't lower the price a little.
Just when Liu Haizhong was thinking about how to lower the price, a familiar voice came over.
"Ouch..."
"Isn't this Mr. Ni from our compound?"
"I really didn't expect to meet you here. It's really a coincidence."
After hearing this familiar voice, Liu Haizhong's body trembled subconsciously.
Because he had already heard that the owner of the voice was Jia Dongxu.
In Liu Hai Center, if Jia Dongxu told others that he bought banned books from the black market, then he, the boss of the compound, might be completely finished.
"I...I...I don't want it anymore..."
Liu Haizhong waved his hands and prepared to slip away.
However, the next second, Jia Dongxu reached out and grabbed him, whispering.
"Master Ni, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't you just want to buy some good books to read?"
"It's such a simple thing, I'll buy it for you."
After Jia Dongxu grabbed Liu Haizhong, he spoke loudly to the stall owner.
"Don't talk nonsense. I'll give you a price of ten dollars. Will you sell it?"
The stall owner saw that Liu Haizhong looked like he wanted to get away, and then saw that Jia Dongxu looked like he was ready to fight.
He understood it instantly.
"Sell……"
The stall owner knew that if he did not agree to Jia Dongxu's offer, then the deal tonight would definitely not be done.
Instead of this, it would be better to make this deal.
After all, a banned book worth twelve pieces of silver can be sold for ten pieces, which is already a very good price.
"Dongxu, what are you doing?"
"I was just saying it casually, why did you buy them?"
When Liu Haizhong saw Jia Dongxu pay so readily, he asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Liu Haizhong couldn't understand Jia Dongxu's behavior.
You know, the Jia family has always been the kind of people who like to take advantage of others, and they are also particularly stingy.
But now Jia Dongxu took out ten yuan to buy the banned book. What is going on?
"Master Ni, these books are my sincere tribute to you."
Jia Dongxu said with a smile.
As he spoke, he handed the twelve banned books that the stall owner had packed to Liu Haizhong.
Liu Haizhong took the banned book handed over by Jia Dongxu, his face full of confusion.
Jia Dongxu actually took the initiative to give him a gift, and it was a gift worth ten dollars.
This time, Jia Dongxu really lost a lot of blood.
"Dongxu, no merit, no reward."
"Although I am the head of the compound, I cannot accept your gift for no reason."
Although Liu Haizhong said no, he held the banned books tightly in his hands.
At the beginning, Liu Haizhong was indeed worried that Jia Dongxu would do something bad to him.
But Liu Haizhong soon felt relieved, and he silently comforted himself in his heart.
"What am I afraid of?"
"I am the chief uncle of the compound. I can become the new chief uncle at any time."
"Jia Dongxu gave me a gift like this, so he was trying to please me."
"Now Yi Zhonghai is no longer able to take care of the Jia family, Jia Dongxu is looking for a new backer."
"How can I refuse this gift that comes right to my door?"
