Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 102 Hundred Dollar Treasury Bill

"Someone is bidding on the comic book! There are also cigarette labels, look!"

At six o'clock, when Wu Yuansheng urged her to go home from get off work, Yi Xiaoyue pointed to the auction information on the online store and said to him.

Originally, she had said that she would only work 8 hours a day, but she said that it would be idle to go back and she might as well help him do more things here.

In such a day, she would be busy for nine hours except for lunch.

After listening to what Yi Xiaoyue said, he took a look and found that someone was indeed bidding on the comic strips and cigarette labels.

There are two comic books, both of which are paintings. One is "Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles" and the other is "Cooking Wine and Discussing Heroes".

There are two cigarette labels for bidding, one is the "Sanyou" cigarette label (local state-owned), and the other is the "Agricultural and Industrial" cigarette label.

There are not many shops on the entire website now, and there are few items. There are many things that someone may buy as long as they are hung on it.

"It's normal. Come and take a look tomorrow. There will definitely be people bidding for other items, including retail items. There should also be items sold. You will be busy from now on!"

"I'm not afraid of being busy! I'm afraid of being idle and having nothing to do. Only when you are busy can you make money. When you make money, I will feel at ease with my salary!"

"Hey! What a good girl!" he thought again in his heart!
"That's a good idea! Bosses like to find people like you to work! I said before that I would only let you work for 8 hours, but now you are busy for nine hours. It seems that I have to pay you overtime!"

"Then just wait until you make money and give me overtime pay! But it's only nine hours. Didn't you go shopping for some things? That time doesn't count as work!"

"Do we still care about that much?"

"Okay, don't worry about it, I'll go to the yard behind to pick some vegetables and bring them back!"

After she finished speaking, she went to pick vegetables!
It seems that she really accepts herself in her heart.

After Yi Xiaoyue finished picking vegetables, Wu Yuansheng put the bicycle she rode over on the tricycle, then locked the door and left together.

Today she sat in front of the electric car with him.

"When you can work for a while longer, switch to an electric bike! Riding a bicycle back and forth every day and delivering goods is very hard!"

When he reached the other side of the bridge, he moved Yi Xiaoyue's car off the tricycle again and said to her.

"Let's talk about it then, I'm leaving! We'll keep in touch by phone!"

After saying that, she rode away on her bike.

Watching her leave, until she disappeared from the corner of an intersection, Wu Yuansheng rode his bicycle towards the family courtyard.

When passing by the recycling bin, considering that it was not yet seven o'clock and it would be dark for a while, he planned to go to the place where used books were purchased and try his luck!

Riding a tricycle, he soon arrived at the area where used books were collected.

Maybe this time is neither too early nor too late. There are several people selling used books and newspapers!

Parking the tricycle not far from a pile of old books, he walked towards the pile.

I didn't see Lao Jia and Lao Kang today, so I guess they should be selecting books at other waste recycling stations. They can't stay in one place all day, so they can come for half a day in the morning or afternoon at most!

The pile of books this time is obviously much higher than the last time I looked at it, almost 1.4 meters high.

It is estimated that within two days at most, these books will be loaded onto trucks and taken away, and then re-melted into paper products made from different raw materials.

There are still many kinds of books on the stack, and they are very miscellaneous.

Wu Yuansheng walked to the stack of books and started reading as he did last time.

He was watching with purpose.

Suddenly, he had another idea, which was to choose some novels, magazines, practical books on raising birds, growing flowers, and cooking, just like Lao Jia and Lao Kang.There are also some books on fortune telling and Feng Shui metaphysics that you can find.

In the future, when my father goes to the construction site to sell used clothes, he can sell some used books like this.

After all, if you weigh it, it only costs about two and a half yuan per pound. The migrant workers on the construction site earn a lot of money. It is normal to spend a few yuan to buy a book that they think is good and go back to read it.

Just selling a few is enough to recoup the capital!
At present, mobile phones have limited memory and functions, so they cannot watch short videos, TV series, or movies.

Some people are bored at night and will read some books to kill time.

Anyway, the number of times I can come here is limited, so since I am here, I will choose more to take away.

Thinking of this, he began to pick out the "Story Club", "Friends", "Martial Arts" and other impurities, medical books, practical books about growing flowers and plants, raising cats and dogs, and novels.

Time was limited, so he didn't look carefully at the pages to see if there was anything mixed in them.

When he was selecting these old books, he could occasionally see a small amount of cigarette labels, envelopes, various bills, a small amount of comic books and other collectible paper products.

Now that he saw it, he would definitely pick them up as well.

Seeing piles of newspapers, he was going to buy some, as these packages would come in handy.

While he was selecting books, someone also came to dump old books.

After someone dumped the book, he would go there and look for it.

After searching for something here until it was dark and unable to see, he asked the landlady for a snakeskin bag to pack the selected old books and weigh them!

In this short period of time, he chose more than 50 kilograms.

After paying the money and putting the books on the tricycle, Wu Yuansheng rode directly to the family courtyard.

We had dinner at the "Hao Zai Lai" restaurant!The service at this restaurant is good and the food tastes good!

After dinner, he returned to the rental house where he lived and poured out the books he had selected.

Afraid of poor light, he put on a headlamp and started looking through these different old books, hoping to find something valuable in the pages!

When looking through these old books and impurities, he would find a bookmark from time to time. The earliest bookmarks date back to the 50s.

The bookmarks were collected by others, and Wu Yuansheng put them separately.

In addition to bookmarks, he also found old movie tickets, tickets, boat tickets and other small collectibles that also have collectible value.

When he found an old book on practical cooking, he felt a little excited.

There are five hundred-dollar "treasury bills" hidden in the pages of the book!
The so-called treasury bills are debt certificates issued by the state to investors that pay interest and repay the principal upon maturity within a certain period of time.

The reason why I am a little excited is because these five cards have large denominations and were issued early. They were issued in 1981, which was also the first one!

These hundred-dollar treasury bills are red, and the pattern on them is "Opencast Coal Mine"!
All five are in very good condition, basically like new.

Many young people today do not know or have seen such treasury bonds.

Based on his own guess, the current market price of a hundred-yuan ticket should not be lower than the price of the gasoline ticket.

After looking at the numbers on the five treasury bills, he found that three of them had consecutive numbers.

If you collect serial numbers, they will definitely be more valuable than ordinary collections without serial numbers. This is similar to coin collection!
