Chapter 245 The Kraft Paper Inside the Book Cover

When Yu Yao heard it, this old man was quite interesting.To hold Huang's temperament with talent, without Xiao Chen, it may not be the case.However, there are indeed some bad effects of bad friends.

After a while, Lao Man came over and said that he had already agreed to leave.

It's inconvenient for Yu Yao to say more about this kind of thing, so he bid farewell.

Cai Pengxi asked Lao Man to drive him back to the hotel, and Yu Yao said he wanted to take a stroll by himself, but Cai Pengxi didn't insist anymore.

After leaving the courtyard, Yu Yao first walked to a nearby street.

After talking with Cai Pengxi today, his stress and emotions have eased, so don't go back to the hotel and just find another place to hang out.

He didn't want to go to Panjiayuan. After the renovation of Baoguo Temple, there were no stalls, and Liulichang was full of shops.At this moment, a taxi stopped in front of Yu Yao, and the driver rolled down the window, "Let's go?"

Yu Yao simply got into the car, "Master, can you recommend an antique market, there should be street stalls, except for Panjiayuan."

"Panjiayuan is the biggest one, right?" The taxi driver thought for a while, "You want to visit street stalls, right? Liulichang is not suitable either... By the way, there is a Daliushu market, are you interested? "

"How to say?" Yu Yao asked.

"This place is full of people on Saturdays and Sundays. There are also street stalls and antiques, but it is mainly a flea market. It is not the same as the Panjiayuan Flea Market. Inside, there are There are those who sell last-order clothes for foreign trade, there are also those who sell various daily necessities, and there are also those who sell dried fruits.”

Yu Yaoxin said that he had never heard of this market before, it seemed like a hodgepodge.Although it's not mainly about antiques, it's okay to go for a stroll.

"Okay, idle is idle, go and have a look."

The Daliushu Market is outside the Fourth Ring Road, not far from a large playground.The entrance is on an asphalt road, and there is a large archway. Most of them are simple one-story houses, and there is a rather large two-story building. The second floor is mainly for selling clothes.

There are indeed street stalls, and many merchants will set up stalls in front of the bungalows.

The stalls of antiques and cultural games are relatively concentrated, and Yu Yao quickly found them.

As a result, I scanned it one after another, thinking that I really came here to slip my legs, how can there be any real antiques.

Since it came, it was safe, Yu Yao still walked patiently, but found nothing.In the end, I had no choice but to leave, and saw a shop selling used books.

In front of the simple room of this shop, there is also a stall with magazines on it.

Yu Yao saw a few old magazines of the 90s collection, and flipped through them. There were a few articles that were very insightful, so he picked two and greeted the boss.

The boss was a man in his 40s wearing glasses, wearing a gray cotton jacket and a cotton hat, and said simply: "Twenty!"

Yu Yao had some change on him, so he took it out and handed it to him.

When receiving the money, the man smiled and said, "I can't see, you are so young, you like to collect? There are still a few thread-bound books from the Qing Dynasty in the store, do you want to take a look?"

"Okay!" Yu Yao followed the boss into the shop.

The man pointed to a shelf on a bookshelf and asked Yu Yao to read it by himself.Yu Yao looked it up and found that it was indeed a thread-bound book from the Qing Dynasty, mainly in the late Qing Dynasty, but they were all high-end goods, and most of them were loose editions, with few complete sets.In terms of content, Yu Yao was not too interested.

After flipping through and preparing to leave, Yu Yao inadvertently caught a glimpse of a set of four volumes of the 1991 paperback edition of "Selected Works of Mao" on the next bookshelf, which was well preserved, very new and neat.

Because the thread-bound edition of the Qing Dynasty didn't take a fancy to it, Yu Yao pointed to this set of "Selected Works of Mao", "Boss, how much is this set?"

Then the man understood, so he didn't mention the Qing Dynasty thread-bound book, and said with a smile, "This set of books came from the warehouse, and they are in good condition. Give me 100 yuan!"

Yu Yao actually didn't understand the market of this set of books, "Could it be cheaper?"

The man smiled, "Are you looking at it, or collecting it?"

"All."

"If you want to collect it, I have a 1948 Northeast Bookstore edition here, would you like to see it?"

Since the first edition was published by the Jinchaji Daily in 1944, there have been various editions of "Selected Works of Mao" over the past 70 years, and they have different values ​​in the used book market.The most expensive must be the first edition, with a circulation of only 2500 copies, and well-preserved masterpieces have sold for more than 20 yuan.

This 1948 Northeast Bookstore edition was multiple volumes bound into one volume, and the printing volume was not large, it is said that there were only about [-] copies.Yu Yao knew the market price of this edition of "Selected Works of Mao", depending on the quality, it was between [-] and [-].

"Okay, let's take a look."

The man found the book out of the cabinet, which was still wrapped in a plastic sealed bag.The man took off the sealed bag outside, and handed the book to Yu Yao, "Aren't your hands sweaty?"

"No, it's refreshing and clean." Yu Yao took it.

Since this book is a multi-volume bound volume, it is relatively thick, with a red hard-bound cloth cover.

The condition is average, the words on the cover of the book have fallen off a bit.Yu Yao had never seen this version of "Selected Works of Mao" before, but after looking through it carefully, he could confirm that it was indeed an old book in original packaging.

However, in the process of flipping through, Yu Yao discovered something.

On the inside of the front and back covers, a piece of kraft paper was pasted, trimmed and pasted well, and there were words written on it.

On the kraft paper inside the cover is written: Study hard and make progress every day.

On the kraft paper inside the back cover is written: Everyone is responsible for loving and protecting books.

The writing is written with a pen, but it is also very skillful.

Yu Yao couldn't help thinking, if he really wanted to protect the book, he should make a complete kraft paper cover and wrap it up. The inside of the front and back covers, under the hard book cover, don't need protection?

Originally, Yu Yao didn't think much about it, but the red sandalwood guqin paperweight was right in front of him, and he knew that in special times, it was not uncommon to use great man photo frames to hide things.

If you put Dong XZ in "Selected Works of Mao", the reason is the same as hiding it in a photo frame of a great man, and it will not be "destroyed by the four olds", which is very safe.

Yu Yao seemed to grope casually a few times, but the kraft paper was very flat, and he couldn't feel if there was something underneath.

If you really want to hide something and it can be easily touched, is that still called hiding?
However, thousands of people have thousands of thoughts, thousands of people have thousands of looks, and they don't know what kind of person the original owner is. If he is willing to post like this and hide nothing, it is not impossible.

"Boss, what is the minimum price for this set of books?"

"I just received this not long ago, so there is nothing wrong with it. In this case, you can give me three thousand."

For this quality, [-] is regarded as the market price, which is acceptable, and there is also room for bargaining at [-].Old books are not the same as antiques, and the prices are often more obvious.

Yu Yao hesitated for a moment, "Okay, I won't talk too much, just bring the 1991 version!"

Regardless of whether there is something hidden or not, the price is not a disadvantage, and the sale is reasonable. At worst, it will be sold in Geguzhai when you go back.He was too lazy to waste time, so he was quick.
