When I called Yang Feier, this girl immediately agreed. I guess she already regarded Lao Li as one of her own.
While there were still two hours left, Lao Li stomped out again, thinking about where to go. He originally wanted to sit on the concrete steps downstairs, blow out smoke rings and whistle at the beauty, but Miss Yang was there.
Being seen nearby, it was inevitable that he would not be able to do the job. As soon as he thought about it, he had an idea, got in the car, and went to a place that always made him linger in his previous life.
Lao Li was able to become a homebody in his previous life, and this place can be regarded as an inducement.
Wherever there is a cause, there must be an effect, it is the way of heaven.
He drove the car to the entrance of the rental library which was still bumpy and stopped, got out of the car and walked towards the door.
"Boss, have you published any novels recently?" Lao Li asked as soon as he walked in.
"Yes, look, the nearest ones are all here!" the old lady who rented the library, wearing glasses, gently raised her eyelids and said.
The old lady's expression and demeanor were no different from her previous life, Lao Li sighed.
"Oh, there are all these books!" Lao Li looked at the titles and felt that he had completely forgotten all these books in the past few years.
"Do you have any recommendations for better books, fantasy ones?" Lao Li asked again.
"There's everything from Huang Yi to Moren. They're all well written!" said the old lady.
Lao Li remembered that this old lady never read these kinds of books, and she basically read some modern novels. If she said they were well written, it did not necessarily mean that she had read them.
Hearing her words, Lao Li chuckled. For a 30-year-old soul, Huang Yi and Moren's novels could no longer attract his interest. The only thing that could attract him was the various beauties in them.
At this time, Lao Li suddenly thought, since we can't plagiarize the books of these famous writers, can we make these better books into TV series and movies?
For example, Huang Yi's "The Great Swordsman" or "Interstellar Slut", but the scenes described in these two novels are really difficult to film. Suddenly, he patted his forehead, wasn't his aunt here? No.
If it's shot with real people, can't it be made into animation? Moreover, the super-level three-dimensional animation looks almost the same as the real thing. When he thinks of this, Lao Li burst out laughing. He will definitely go back and ask his aunt at night if it is possible.
Lao Li remembered that after the Internet became popular, the rental bookstores slowly disappeared in the long river of time and space, so he picked up a stool next to him and sat down.
"Boss, how many years has your store been open?" Lao Li asked when he saw that some parts of the bookshelves were polished smooth and shiny.
The old lady put down the book and replied: "When I started, it was harder than ever to get into a good university!"
"Oh, you opened it in eight years ago?" Lao Li looked at the surrounding environment again.
"Yes, after so many years, people have become old!" the old lady sighed.
"Who is not old? Boss, now everyone likes to read novels on the computer. In a few years, when the Internet becomes popular, your business may be greatly affected!" Lao Li said.
The old lady sighed: "There is nothing that does not decay!"
Lao Li saw that she was quite open-minded in looking at the problem. She must have read more books and understood more principles.
So he added: "But when you stop reading, you can sell these books. If the books are older, you can also sell them to make some money for retirement!"
The old lady said: "You can't sell them for any money. They are just novels and worthless. No one wants them even if they are sold for pretense, and they will be used as waste paper in the end."
Lao Li smiled and said: "It's not valuable now, but it will probably be valuable when I leave it to my grandson to have grandsons!"
The old lady shook her head and sighed: "How can I control that far? Each generation can only control one generation. I can only take the responsibility of raising my son to be an adult. The grandson is the son's responsibility, not mine. He is the grandson's grandson."
I can’t even see it!”
When Lao Li heard her words, he felt desolate. Thinking of his previous life, ten years also passed by in a hurry. In the ten years of his previous life, many things also happened in a hurry. Relatives passed away, were born, got married, etc. Human society is not just one generation.
From the same generation?
"Yes, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings! However, if you have older books here and are willing to transfer them, I can take them over!" Lao Li thought, we read so many books in our previous life, and if we have money in this life, we can also collect them.
After a while, it will be a great wealth to be left to future generations. When the time comes to buy a villa and set up a dedicated study room, it will be a legitimate study room. I don’t want to call it a study room just because I put a computer in it.
The old lady shook her head and said: "There are no old books! They were all burned during the Cultural Revolution!"
When Lao Li heard what she said, it seemed that there was something in it, so he said, "Did you have a lot of books burned during the Cultural Revolution?"
"Oh, I don't even want to talk about it! I won't talk about it!" said the old lady.
Lao Li didn't force her!
Lao Li suddenly remembered, didn’t we often borrow books here during the last semester in our previous life? We were already very familiar with the old lady at that time. It was just that we were so far apart in time and space, but when we came here again, I felt old.
My wife is someone I met a long time ago.
In the eyes of the old lady, wasn't this young man the one who came every day during the last semester and picked up two or three copies at most? He was considered a big customer!
Thinking of this, Lao Li laughed;
The old lady looked at his face and said, "Young man, you have changed a lot since last semester. Have you got a girlfriend?"
In the eyes of old people, the relationship between men and women can make a big difference in a young person.
Lao Li then said arrogantly: "Yes, my girlfriend is a beautiful woman. I will bring her to you to see if I have a chance in the future!"
The old lady also laughed: "You are a beautiful young man!"
At this point, Lao Li knew that he had nothing more to say to the old lady. After leaving the door, he looked back at the name of the bookstore he rented, smiled, and shook his head. After all, it was a sign of more than 20 years.
It disappeared after a few years!
The old lady stood up and came to the door. When she saw Lao Li getting into the car, she suddenly shouted: "Young man, come here, I have some old books, do you want them?"
Lao Li did not expect that the old lady would call him to stop him, and for this reason, he turned around and walked towards the door again.
At this time, the business of renting a bookstore was relatively light. There was only one customer like Lao Li in the small room. The old lady said: "I just listened to your words. In a few years, my store will really be closed. By then, it will be closed."
There is nothing left for future generations, young man, just wait!"
After saying that, he walked into the inner room and walked out after a while, holding out a box.
He blew the dust off the box and said, "A few old books were left behind during the Cultural Revolution. I wanted to leave them to my son. I saw that you talked a lot today, so I gave them to you to read. But you can't take them for free!"
"
Lao Li understood in his heart that love sells books? Could it be that she had some thoughts when she heard that he collected old books just now?
The box was opened and Lao Li saw several books stacked on top of each other.
The old lady took out a book, flipped through it, handed it to Lao Li, and said: "I don't know what year it is, but it should be before liberation. I can't understand a Kung Fu book."
Lao Li flipped through it casually and said with a smile: "A martial arts book. I had this kind of book at home when I was a child. I think there were quite a lot of these books in the early years. How do you sell it? How many books do you have in it?"
The old lady flipped through the pages again: "More than twenty books, if you want them, you can take them for 100 yuan each!"
Lao Li didn't want to be fooled by her, so he took out the books inside one by one.
"Isn't 100 yuan too expensive?" Old Li said with a smile: "I see that although these books are all from before liberation, there are none that are too old. Well, 100 yuan is a bit too much. You have 21 books here, here they are.
1,000 yuan! How about it?"
The old lady seemed a little reluctant and said: "Please add more!"
"Okay then, 1,200 yuan, no more, I think it's because we are acquaintances!" Lao Li said.
"Okay, take it, take it!" The old lady waved her hand.
Lao Li took out his wallet and said with a smile: "Look, if the books in your store are really left to your grandson's grandson, one book will appreciate a lot in value by then. Even if the store fails to open in the future, keep some."
The appreciation in value of classic books is also good! As long as you have enough space at home to put them!"
Holding the box in his arms, Lao Li got into the car and threw it on the passenger seat.
After parking the car downstairs in the dormitory, Lao Li opened the car window to get some air, rolled the seat lower, half-lying and half-relying, then opened the book box, picked up a book at random, and read through it.
"Haha, what kind of boxing technique is this? In a few years, there will be a lot of them on the Internet. But if you really follow it, it will be easy to strengthen your body!" Seeing the action pictures of people drawn on some pages, Lao Li remembered the Internet in his previous life.
Some martial arts books such as the so-called "Yi Jin Jing" are circulated, and the movements are given in detail. Follow them and persevere, and it is possible for you to live a long life. But how many ordinary people have such perseverance?
of.
This is what the so-called principles are all there, and few people are willing to extract them.
Then he threw the book into the back seat and took another one out of the box;
"A Feng Shui book! Haha, when I have free time later, I can learn the idea of the unity of nature and man. I don't have that much time to master it! Unless my aunt is willing to spend energy to burn it for me!" Old Li said to himself: "
However, this kind of book is quite collectible, a book with a bit of mysticism!"
"Another Qigong book, haha, it seems that everyone was obsessed with this when the reform and opening up began!" He put it on the back seat casually.
"Collection of poems, it's not interesting!" He put it behind him casually.
"Buddhist scriptures, well, I am relatively old at reading them, but the contents are probably already circulated in the world and can be collected!"
"It's another martial arts book, haha, it talks about acupuncture points! When you have free time later, you can see how it is different from the ones on the Internet!" Lao Li put it in the back seat again.
....
Most of them are books on martial arts, Feng Shui and the like. Maybe the old lady wanted to leave it to her son and let him learn it, but after so many years, I think martial arts only plays a role in strengthening the body in the real society, and practicing for 30 years is not enough.
A peanut.
Collected the book, put it back in the box, and put it in the storage box in the car.
Lao Li idly took out a cigarette again, took off his shoes, put his feet on the front desk of the car, half lying down and half lying down, smoking Xiaoyao cigarettes, passing the time.
