Chapter 172 Difficult to refuse
I rubbed between my brows with my fingers.

To be honest, the current salary of two thousand is enough to eat, but it is definitely not enough to spend!Now I am no longer a clerk who just needs to keep the office safe. I have to go out frequently and maybe meet clients in the future. Miss Zhu reminded me last time that I still need to dress up.

Of course, I still have the clothes that Grandma Dong bought for me, but I can’t rely on those who will wear them for a lifetime and will always buy clothes in the future. The consumption can only increase.

A salary of two thousand is really not enough.

This year, I actually used my savings to fill the gap.

My idea is, just treat it as paying tuition fees and paying entry fees.

But now that he has been working for a year, the tuition fee is enough, so he has to think about how to make money.

It is too simple and dangerous to rely solely on the price increase of the building. If the property price does not rise, or falls, or the rent is greatly reduced, and the rent received is not enough to pay the monthly payment, I will not only lose money, Maybe you have to pay for it.

I took a breath.

The situation at Tang Kun's house flashed through his mind, as well as what Tang Kun said when he was drunk.

I found that I have been too slack in the past two years.

Because of those few windfalls, I was slack.

Think about the feeling of despair and longing for a few cents and a steamed bun.

Think about it...

I shouldn't push away the opportunity to make money, just because of my ridiculous thoughts, because of that meaningless self-esteem, I should push this opportunity away.

It is really……

In fact, as long as you think about your position, stand firm in your position, and understand what you need, in fact, this matter is very easy to understand.

Just like so many contracts I have played.

Lu Li has this kind of demand, and I can provide this kind of service and goods, he pays to buy my goods, as long as there is money to be made, why not do it?
As long as, as long as I think clearly, I am willing to give my time and labor for the [-] yuan, and that's fine.

Not for anything else, not for any vain luxury, no strings attached.

After negotiating the terms of the contract, the goods will be prepared, shipped, and paid.

In fact, it's that simple!
According to last year's experience, after Chen Han's order goes out, and then the contract with Cruise is confirmed, I should have a period of time where I don't need to work overtime.

After returning home, I can just copy and practice calligraphy at the same time. One book is [-], and I can copy one or two books a month, which is also a stable income.

After thinking it through, I looked up at Lu Li and said, "Okay, I've accepted this business, but first, let's make it clear, you said [-] copies, how thick is this book?"

These ancient books are not all the same thickness, some are only a few dozen pages thin, and some are more than 100 pages thick.

The thick one has more notes.

Moreover, not only is there a difference in thickness, professional books and general record books, but also those of the book, the difficulty is not the same.

It's like we export, the same kind of button, because the thickness is different and the size is different, the cost is different, and the selling price is also different.

I don't want him to copy a bunch of the most difficult ones for me when we have agreed!
That's a bloodbath for the price-performance ratio!

Lu Li raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips curled up, and said with a faint smile, "It seems that your job is pretty good."

I snorted and said, "That is."

The corners of Lu Li's eyes also twitched, and he said with a smile: "Well, then, let's take the Warring States Policy last time as an example. If there are many pages and the difficulty is high, add another five thousand."

"Twenty thousand?" I unconsciously raised my eyebrows and said, "He is really rich!"

I remember that he once said that some ancient books engraved in the Qing Dynasty are only worth [-] copies, and this manuscript has caught up with the original owner.

I couldn't help but have some doubts. Could it be that this guy is teasing me again?
"I didn't just ask you to copy any one for me." Lu Li said with a smile: "It's mainly some orphan copies and those that have been poorly preserved. Once those books are destroyed, they will never be able to find the same ones again."

I snorted and asked, "Can I understand that those are very valuable books?"

"Yes, some auction prices are even as high as 800 million." Lu Li paused, and said: "A few years ago, my grandfather bought a batch of ancient books from Xiangcheng, and he is the most famous ancient literature expert in the last century. Gu Mingyuan's collection."

"Gu Mingyuan!" I screamed unconsciously.

I remembered that on the train, I heard those two people say that Gu Mingyuan's book was taken by the Lu family.

That Lu family is Lu Li's family!
"You know him?" Lu Li asked quietly.

I took a breath, and wanted to say that of course I knew, but when the words came to my lips, I held back again.

I thought to myself, what's the point of knowing each other?

Maybe people will think that they are putting money on their face. If they are asked how they knew Gu Mingyuan...

Forget it, as long as I remember Gu Mingyuan, as long as I know it myself.

No need to tell anyone.

However, if what I want to copy is Gu Mingyuan's collection of books...

I chuckled lightly, didn't answer Lu Li's question, and said directly: "Okay, I'll accept this business, when will it start?"

Lu Li looked at me without saying a word. After a long time, he raised his hand.

A young man in a white T-shirt ran in from outside the coffee shop, and handed a bag to Lu Li respectfully.

Lu Li took out a book wrapped in golden soft flannel from his bag, gently placed it in front of me, and said, "Let's start with the three-talent drawing marked by Li Mengyang's promotion."

I listened to him talking, and watched in a daze as his slender jade-like fingers picked the golden soft flannel away.

I looked at the familiar writing, at the additional handwritten signature of Gu Mingyuan, which was sandwiched between the seals, and looking at it, even after so many years, I still remembered how I put it out of the pile. The lone copy found in the trash.

My eye sockets were suddenly red, and my nose was a little sour.

I sniffled my nose, rubbed the corners of my eyes with my fingers in a disguise, and said softly, "This, I remember you said, is worth more than 500 million."

"The price is higher now." Lu Li said with a faint smile, "Don't worry, I'm not worried that you will miss this book, you know the place, after copying it, you can just send it there, I am now, as long as it's okay , will be there.”

I rolled my eyes and said, "Twenty thousand copies? No time limit?"

"Yes." Lu Li smiled.

"Do you want to write a contract?" I turned my head away, not looking at his dazzlingly brilliant face.

Lu Li laughed again, took out [-] cash from his bag, and said, "I'll pay in advance, and the contract is fine, but leave me your new phone number."

I hummed and remembered something.

During those six months, I told him my phone number, but he never called, and never told me, his phone number.

"This is my phone number." Lu Li pushed the money and books in front of me, then took out a note, wrote a phone number on it, and smiled at me: "How much is yours?"

I hesitated for a moment, then took out my phone, and then dialed the number he wrote. When I heard the phone ringing in his bag, I hung up the phone, and then carefully wrapped the book , together with the 2 yuan, put it in my bag.

I stood up and said to Lu Li: "Okay, I'll go back and copy it now, and I'll send it to you after I copy it."

"Xiaoqing." Lu Li called out.

I turned and looked at him.

Lu Li's face changed, and his lips twitched a few times. In the end, he just smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
