Chapter 186 Searching for "Book Tomb Notes"

More than 30 years ago, Tian Zhiwen changed the covers of the four "Book Tomb Notes" into four romance novels, namely "Love in the Wind", "Love in Flowers", "Love in Snow" and "Love in the Moon".

Among them, "Snow Love" is already in Liu Xing's hands, and what needs to be found now are the other three romance novels.

This set of romance novels in the "Feng Hua Xue Yue" series was published at their own expense more than 30 years ago, and only 200 sets were issued in total, most of which were not sold and became useless books.

If these waste books can be recovered, the other three "Book Tomb Notes" can be found.

More than 30 years have passed, and these waste books may have been resold many times. It seems difficult to get them all back.

However, this is not the case.

Since 30 years ago, each novel of Huaxia Reading Union has a unique book number, and when each novel is traded, there is a corresponding transaction record.

Through these transaction information, you can know the whereabouts of each novel.

Therefore, just look at the transaction records of 200 sets of romance novels in the "Fenghua Xueyue" series, and you can find three "Book Tomb Notes".

In Tianhai City, there is a place where you can view these transaction information - Jianshu Building.

……
late at night.
Jianshu Building, Tianhai City, Book Data Center.

The staff of the data center had already left work, but at this moment, there was a man in a blue work uniform sitting in front of the computer, concentrating on checking the data in the database.

This man is Liu Xing.

Ordinary people have no right to consult the database of Jianshu Building, so Liu Xing secretly knocked out a book appraiser in Jianshu Building, changed into his work uniform, and secretly entered the data center.

In the database of the data center, you can check the transaction records of all books in Huaxia Kingdom.
According to the information in the book database, 200 sets of the 30 sets of "Fenghua Xueyue" novels were successfully sold, and the remaining 170 sets became waste books.

Among the 170 sets of waste books, 90 sets were recycled by the Reading Union, and the other 80 sets were purchased by 19 novel collectors in Tianhai City.

Therefore, the three "Book Tomb Notes" are either in the waste library of the Reading Alliance, or in the hands of 19 novel collectors.
"Start with these 19 collectors."

Looking at the computer screen, Liu Xing recorded the detailed information of 19 novel collectors.

……

In the next seven days, Liu Xing sneaked into the houses of 18 collectors and tested the 79 sets of romantic novels in the "Feng Hua Xue Yue" series collected by them.

As a result, it was found that none of these 79 sets of novels were "Book Tomb Notes".

The eighth day, late at night.

In Building C, Lijing District, Tianhai City, a black shadow came out of the grass, and ran up the wall of the building at high speed. After reaching the height of the fourth floor, the figure flashed, passed through a narrow window, and entered No. 502 Apartment.

In front of him was a spacious study room, and there was no one in the room.

Liu Xing scanned around, came to a row of bookshelves in the study, and began to check the novels on the bookshelves.

The owner of this study, surnamed Wang, is a collector who likes to collect romance novels.According to the transaction information of the Reading Union database, this collector also collected a set of romantic novels 15 years ago.

There were more than 5000 romance novels on the bookshelf in front of him, and Liu Xing began to look for them.

more than an hour later.

"Finally found!"

On the bookshelf on the second floor, Liu Xing found the romance novel "Feng Hua Xue Yue".

The four novels were taken down and tested one by one.

""Love in the Wind", a romance novel, no level, matching 0.84%"

""Love of Flowers", a romance novel, no level, matching 0.75%"

""Snow Love", a romance novel, no level, matching 0.69%"

""Love of the Moon", a romance novel, no level, matching 0.91%"

After the test, Liu Xing couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

These four romance novels are all authentic, not the "Book Tomb Notes" he was looking for.

"It seems that the three copies of "Book Tomb Notes" are not in the hands of 19 collectors, but in the waste library of the Reading League!"

Liu Xing thought to himself, when things got to this point, he could only go to the library of the Reading League to search for them.

It's just that where is the waste library of the Reading League?
"Ask Wu Guokun tomorrow."

Putting the novel back on the bookshelf, the figure flashed and floated out of the window, Liu Xing disappeared...

……

the next morning.

In the general manager's office of Meteor Book Bar, Liu Xing and Director Wu Guokun were discussing the second season of the essay contest.

As of today, 147 star-rated novels have been produced in the second season of essay writing, nearly twice as many as the first season.

According to the current situation, this "Shadowman Cup" essay competition will definitely not lose money, and may even become the most profitable essay competition in Tianhai City's history.

In the first season of soliciting essays, 51 of the 17 star-rated novels have passed the preliminary review of the book testing center, and they have started trial reading activities in 17 bookstores in Fiction Street.

During this month, the booksellers of Fiction Street have earned more than 600 million profits from the trial reading activities.

The effect of soliciting essays in the second season is twice as strong as that of the first season, and the prospects are naturally bright.

Of course, more than half of the credit for this should be credited to Liu Xing.
"Xiao Liu, it's unbelievable that you have unearthed 59 star-rated novels in the second season of essay competition." Wu Guokun exclaimed, "In ten years or so, you may have discovered more than half of the star-rated writers in Tianhai City. At that time, the Star Writers Association may have to invite you to be its president!"

Liu Xing smiled, and said, "By the way, Director Wu, I want to ask you something. Where is the waste library of the Reading League?"

"Abandoned library?" Director Wu Guokun frowned slightly, "There are several abandoned libraries in the Reading Alliance, and one of them is in the library of Yufeng Fiction Academy. What's wrong?"

Liu Xing explained: "There may be some good books in the waste library, I want to go in and have a look."

"Your talent for appreciating books is so outstanding, you really should go to the trash library." Director Wu Guokun reminded, "However, only appraisers can enter the trash library of the Reading Alliance. Temporarily unable to enter."

Liu Xing asked: "I am already a student of the Appreciation Department, and I have no right to enter the waste library?"

Director Wu Guokun said: "Of course not. Students in the Book Appraisal Department are not book appraisers. You can only be considered a real book appraiser if you get the certificate of a book appraiser. If you want to enter the scrap library of the Reading League, you must first Participate in the grade examination of the book appraiser. However, it is too early to say this, to pass the book appraiser's exam, you need to complete all the four-year undergraduate courses of the book appraiser department at least."

Liu Xing didn't expect that it would be so troublesome to enter the waste library. Could it be that he really wanted to get a degree in the Department of Appreciation?
