Storm of Kings

Yuanquan Town is here, but the town is crowded with people. From time to time, I see reckless guys fighting and fighting, and the government officials in the town hall are busy beating their heads.

After inquiring about it, I realized that the teams from more than a dozen nearby villages and several chambers of commerce were all trapped here, and it was difficult to get in and get out of Yuanquan Town right now.

There are three big families in the town, Jiang, Shen and Han.

Among them, the Jiang family advocated the use of foreign troops, and the Shen family advocated negotiations. The Han family has not yet indicated which side it prefers, so it is difficult for the town to calm down until the three have reached a unified opinion.

The new team from Kaiyuan Village arrived, and each household started to move the goods on the truck.

There is no need to look for it specially, the restaurant has a dedicated person here to "restock".

Suddenly, Zhou Lie caused a sensation here: "Hey, how do you sell this blind fish? We want it from the Crane Tower.

"Little brother, we bought your fish king with 16 silver coins from Tongdinglou. The other fish are wrapped with 50 silver coins. The price is absolutely fair. A total of 66 silver coins. What do you think?"

"Grandma's, where are you Tongdinglou? We, Cranequelou, saw this fish first."

"Come less, get the higher price. The Crane Tower does not have the financial resources of our Tongding Tower."

The two restaurants were on the bar, Xidezu Wanhao was standing next to him, squinting and smiling, and suddenly heard Xu Tianbao whisper: "You are watching here, I will go around for a few times."

Without waiting for the fat man to reply, Xu Tianbao's figure has been integrated into the crowd.

At this time, Zhou Lie took the heavy package from an ox cart in the village and told the fat man to sell the fish to make money. Then he took his sister Xu Xiaohuan and left the convoy.

"Damn, you really trusted me, and you all left in a blink of an eye."

Zu Wanhao is depressed!No one cares about this tank of fish except him, right?

Among the crowd, Xiaohuan looked at the backpack behind his brother, with all doubts in his eyes. He thought that when he was in town this time, did his brother have other goods to sell?

Zhou Lie walked and watched, stopping to ask a few words when he encountered something he didn't recognize.

In the past half an hour, the two brothers and sisters walked around the stalls in the market. Xiaohuan became increasingly unable to understand what his brother was going to do.

Next, Zhou Lie took his younger sister into the only bookstore in the town, and instead of waiting for the arrogant little Er to drive away, he juggled out two ancient yellowed books.

"Hey, he's a big bun." Xiao Er's eyes were full of envy and jealousy.

In these years, in addition to the village office and town office school, if you want to learn, you have to buy books at a high price, and these books are often in the hands of local high-ranking households.

All the families in the top towns have always spared no effort in collecting knowledge.In this way, a monopoly is formed to consolidate one's own class.

Zhou Lie weighed the two books in his hands and said: "This is a treasure book for the manufacture of agricultural machinery in the old age. Although I don't understand it well, it is said to be worth a lot of money."

Hearing this, Xiao Er snorted and laughed, thinking that the soil buns are the soil buns and will never be on the table.

The shopkeeper was settling accounts behind the counter, looked up at Zhou Lie and Xu Xiaohuan, and said unhurriedly: "You can spend two silver coins to make me long eyes. The exact price depends on the degree of cherishment of knowledge. Pinduxuan is famous far and wide. , The bid is always the most fair, even if you take the book to a big city, it will definitely not exceed the price I offered."

Zhou Lie believes that he has a ghost!But the only bookstore in town is this Pinduxuan, and there is no other place to go to sell books.

"Okay, then ask the shopkeeper to give me long eyes!" Zhou Lie handed the ancient book over, looking extremely nervous and expectant.

Xu Xiaohuan's eyes widened, she never expected that the goods her brother used to sell were actually two ancient books.

That's a book!It contains precious knowledge, and it may help even more to stay around, so why are you willing to sell it?

The shopkeeper carefully opened the pages of the book with tweezers, and reminded as he read: “Don’t forget the two silver coins for the appraisal fee.

In short time, he closed two books and said: "Books related to machinery are still very marketable, but this book on agricultural machinery is spread too widely, and is worth 20 silver coins at most. The second book on planters is It means that it should be possible to sell at a high price of a hundred silver coins."

Although Zhou Lie wasn't thinking about selling books, when he heard that this not too thick ancient book was worth a hundred silver coins, his heart was still beating for a while.

Xu Xiaohuan was also very excited. In a blink of an eye, he received 120 silver coins, plus the money for selling fish, enough for his brother to marry a wife.

You must know that my mother was greedy for the dark, and she took great pains to prepare the money for her brother. Unexpectedly, the elder brother was so powerful, so she had enough of the offer.

Zhou Lie didn’t know what his sister was thinking. He nodded as if he had never seen the world before, and said, “Okay, the shopkeeper will quickly settle the money for me! But I’ve never been able to figure out how brilliant the old age was. What about the collapse?"

The shopkeeper's forty-year-old, with small glasses on the bridge of his nose, said with emotion: "The old age was indeed brilliant! But who made the demon stars suddenly come? I don't understand after I told you, the radiation poisoned everything at that time, and... "

At this point, the shopkeeper asked Zhou Lie: "Do you want gold coins or silver coins? Gold coins are easy to carry, but now one hundred and twenty silver coins are exchanged for one gold coin..."

Zhou Lie smiled, opened the package and searched it hard, and took out two more ancient books from it.

The shopkeeper showed a clear look, nodded and said: "It's right to be careful when you go out. I suggest you exchange gold coins so that it is not easy to be discovered when stored."

"Thanks to the shopkeeper for the point, then exchange it into gold coins." Zhou Lie hurriedly asked: "You said just now that radiation poisoned everything. I wonder what happened when the demon star descended?"

The shopkeeper said while flipping the book: "The poisoning of radiation has also caused many things to change. The country collapsed and civilization regressed. To this day, no one can tell what is hidden behind these changes."

"Okay, after the appraisal is complete, these two books are very complete. They introduce the rotary tiller and the feed grinder, which are very helpful for improving organ skills, and are worth two hundred silver coins."

The shopkeeper’s business was done on business and started counting money.Of course, he will not forget his appraisal fee.

Zhou Lie looked at the bookshelf and saw that there were various lockable boxes on it. The more valuable books should be on the second floor, and you can't see them on the first floor.

He seized the opportunity to ask: "I wonder if you have any books about monsters and monsters?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed: "Child! Buying books is not that simple. Remember that knowledge is a class. Here are two gold coins and 76 silver coins. If you are lucky to find an ancient book next time, you are welcome to come to our store to exchange and buy books. You need to have a specific seal."

Zhou Lie was a little lost, and there was a trace of unsure whether it was depressed or angry in his heart.

He didn't expect that he would not be able to buy books if he had money. Before he walked into the bookstore, he thought that the problem could be solved by high prices, but he didn't sell them at all.

"I will work hard, try to break this bondage, I will definitely break..."
