The Age of Rebirth: Lazy Man’s Hot Daughter-in-law Has Space

Chapter 144: book is my life



  Seeing Guoqiang approaching, the two left quickly without saying a word.

  The rules of this industry are not to mix with each other, let alone black and white, so that Guoqiang can see his face, and they don't want to mix in the black market.

  Guoqiang chased after him for a while, seeing that the two men were running fast, he stopped chasing, he was afraid that he would just miss Liang Xiaonan at this moment.

  When he returned to the gate of the old printing factory, he saw Liang Xiaonan standing there looking around.

   "Have you waited long? Sorry."

   "It's okay, I just arrived." Of course Liang Xiaonan was pretending, she couldn't say that she threw the bricks and stones, right?

   "Is the food brought?"

   "Bring it," Liang Xiaonan pointed to a dark corner, and put it here.

  Guoqiang strode over a few times and saw two half-full pockets leaning against the wall. He said in surprise, "This is it?"

  Opening a pocket, he copied it down vigorously with his hands. The whole bag was full of soybeans, which were plump and fresh.

  The other half of the sack, he was shocked when he opened it: "Black beans?"

   "Well, your uncle is sick, maybe he is malnourished?" Now that his limbs are weak, and the doctor prescribed soybeans, it is basically starvation disease and malnutrition.

   Guoqiang nodded.

   "Okay then, you can take half a bag of black beans, it weighs more than 100 catties, just a little more. What's your relationship with that fifth grandfather? Are you dear?"

   "My parents passed away early, and I grew up with my fifth grandpa and my fifth grandma." Guoqiang's thoughts were all on soybeans and black beans, "Can you give me both of these sacks of beans?"

"Can."

  Guoqiang said: "Don't worry, the books are all new and well preserved. Let's read the books together. If you are satisfied with the books, I will take the soybeans away."

   It is not uncommon for black people to eat black things. Guoqiang goes to work during the day and sells a little stuff in the black market at night. He is not greedy for other people's things, but if he can take advantage of the situation, he will not let it go.

  Guoqiang tied two sacks with ropes and hung them on his shoulders like a rucksack, with one sack at the front and one at the back.

  He used to be very big, but now he couldn’t eat enough, and he didn’t have much strength. After walking for a while, he was so tired that he gasped and said, “Let’s take a rest first, shall we?”

  Liang Xiaonan gave him her pannier, and she carried two sacks and said, "Let's go, how far is it?"

   "Not far, just a little way." They chose to trade at the entrance of the printing factory because the books were hidden nearby.

   Sure enough, they turned around behind the printing factory, and there was a dilapidated yard. The houses and walls were smashed beyond recognition, and they were completely in ruins.

  Guoqiang led Liang Xiaonan into this broken courtyard without saying a word. Before entering, he looked around for a while to make sure that there was no one, so he led Liang Xiaonan in.

   There was a half-broken large water tank in the corner. Guoqiang moved the large water tank away, and lifted the wooden board under the water tank, and saw a hole the size of a person.

  Guoqiang turned on the flashlight and led Liang Xiaonan down. Liang Xiaonan's eyesight was not restricted, so he followed with a sack.

  Down to the end, she realized why the glasses told her to choose whatever she wanted.

  Here is a basement with an area of ​​20 to 30 square meters. It is full of books, but they are packed in sacks.

"You can choose these books at will." Guoqiang said, "I don't know what books you like. When Grandpa Fifth heard the news last year, he made a decisive decision and packed the good books in the library in sacks overnight. I wouldn't dare to read them at home." Tibetan, this is the yard of a big landlord’s house in the past, it’s deserted, and no one comes here at ordinary times. Fifth Grandpa just hid the books here.”

  Although what he said was scattered, Liang Xiaonan had a high probability of guessing what was going on inside. The glasses belonged to someone from the Cao Xiaoyuan County Library, and it should be a leader.

   In order to protect the books, good books are hidden here. This big landlord may have been his friend before. This is the ruins, and it is safest to hide here.

  Now I can’t go on anymore, so I have to sell books. Those who can risk their heads to buy books must be people who love books, and they can be regarded as benevolent.

  Liang Xiaonan opened those sacks, and briefly checked some of the titles in each sack. They were all new books, many of which had not been opened, and all of them were high-quality books, many of which had only been heard in legends.

  She decided to take them all.

  Guoqiang saw that she liked it, and had great hopes. If this **** could take all these books, the rations of Fifth Grandpa and Fifth Grandma should last for a long time.

  Liang Xiaonan wondered if Guoqiang could call the shots.

   "Are you going to collect these books or sell them gradually?" Liang Xiaonan asked.

  Guoqiang immediately said: "We have to sell, whoever wants to give, money is fine, food is better."

  Last year, production began to decrease, and this year is not as good as last year. If you have money, you can't buy food.

   "If you want all these books, how much money or how much food do you need?"

   "Ah!" Guoqiang was so excited that he didn't know what to say. In fact, he didn't know how many copies he had, and he never counted them. Moreover, he sold a few books every now and then, and no one wanted them.

   "Can you wait for me here for a while? Let me ask Grandpa Fifth?" Guoqiang was afraid that Liang Xiaonan would run away.

   "Aren't you afraid that I will steal all the books?"

   "Don't be afraid, the fifth grandfather said that you are a book lover, and a book lover has a pure heart and will not do dirty things."

  Guo Qiang’s words are condescending, but he is not afraid that Liang Xiaonan will take the book away. The girl really has food, she should be a person with a background.

   "Go to your Fifth Grandfather, hurry up, if you can, if you can't, I'm leaving."

   Guoqiang ran faster than a rabbit and left.

  Liang Xiaonan continued to open those sacks to look, the more she looked, the more excited she became, my God, she just unintentionally unearthed a treasure in the library!

   After waiting for less than 20 minutes, Liang Xiaonan heard footsteps coming from outside. It was Guo Qiang and Fifth Grandpa Glasses who came.

  The glasses didn't cover his face this time, and he was a very thin old man.

   "Comrade, do you want both?" the old man said excitedly, "Do you have a place to hide?"

   "Yes." Liang Xiaonan said in his heart, even if it was ten thousand times more, I would easily hide it.

"There are a total of 30 sacks here, and I packed about 40-50 books in each sack, a total of more than 1,300 books. I don't want you to exchange a catty of soybeans for a book. You love books and can protect these books. I am grateful that it is too late." .I heard from Guoqiang that you brought 100 catties of soybeans and 100 catties of black beans, that’s enough, these beans are enough.”

  The old man wants to present all the books in this basement to her.

  Liang Xiaonan would not take such a huge advantage for nothing, but the old man took back too much food, and the neighbor saw it, so he couldn't tell.

   "How about this, I'll give you some supplies, and I'll ask my family to give them to you later and send them to this yard?"

  The old man was determined not to, saying that 200 catties of beans would be enough.

  Liang Xiaonan wanted to say that it was settled, but suddenly heard footsteps in the distance, she stopped talking, and listened carefully.

  Guoqiang suddenly jumped up and asked nervously, "What are you listening to?"

   "Does anyone come to this place?"

   "No, no..." The old man was trembling with fright, and said to her and Guoqiang, "Hurry up, hurry up, and hide immediately."

  Guoqiang pulled him: "Fifth Grandpa, let's all leave quickly, forget about the books, and later..." grabbed the old man and pulled him towards the entrance of the cave.

The old man burst into tears: "It's all my fault. When I came out just now, I was only happy and forgot to see if someone was watching... You all go away, children, books are my life, and I will die with these books. "
