Chapter 90 How to become a scholar

In the afternoon, the underground library of Meteor Bookstore.

There are 30 large bookshelves neatly arranged, and all the bookshelves are full of novels. There are more than 45000 books in total, of which 21000 are campus novels. All of them were purchased from Fugui Book Bar today.

It would take a lot of time to identify so many novels, so Liu Xing decided to test the campus novels first.

Standing in front of the bookshelf, Liu Xing inspected the books in the order they were placed, and inspected about 1 books in one minute.

Nine minutes later, when the 9th book was detected, the first surprise appeared.

[Book Title] "The Days When I Was a Monitor"

【Type】Campus Fiction

【Grade】One star
[Matching degree] 7%
Liu Xing was a little surprised. He didn't expect to find star novels so quickly. After thinking about it carefully, he finally understood.

These campus novels were published earlier, and some were even published more than 40 years ago. At that time, high-speed computers had not been introduced into the book appraisal technology, and the probability of making mistakes in book appraisal was relatively high.

Because of this, the probability of finding the missing star novels is also increased.

After putting away "The Days I Was a Monitor", Liu Xing continued to review books.

After continuously testing more than 700 books, we found 6 more one-star campus novels, and the proportion of star-rated novels is very close to one percent.

When the 744th copy was detected, there was a new harvest.

[Book Title] "Student Times"

【Type】Campus Fiction

【Grade】two-star
[Matching degree] 26%
Liu Xing's eyes lit up slightly, and he finally found a two-star campus novel.

Opening "Student Times", Liu Xing read a few pages, and found that the style of this book is small and fresh. It tells the colorful campus life of a group of young students. There are bitterness, sweetness, and adolescence Confusion, but also infinite longing for the unknown...

When reading the novel "Student Times", Liu Xing remembered a lot of his past when he was in school, and suddenly missed those youthful days.Looking back now, you will find that many things are unique to the student days. Once you miss it, it will be difficult to encounter it again.

Pure friendship, ignorant secret love, and infinite yearning for a better future...

After stepping into the big dye vat of society, it is difficult to get these things back.

This "Student Days" seems to bring Liu Xing back to the youth campus at once, and experience the innocence of the student days again.

Seeing this, Liu Xing somewhat understands why this "Student Days" can reach two stars. The book shows the most beautiful side of the student days, making people immersed in it unconsciously and fascinating.

Campus novels like this kind of delicate yet refreshing, warm and full of emotion are becoming more and more rare in China, which is becoming more and more impetuous.

It is a pity that this "Student Times" was still buried among the waste books back then, and it has been 42 years since then.

Liu Xing looked at the publication information of "Student Times", and found that it was a self-published novel with a printing run of 50 copies.

Many scholars in Huaxia have published novels, but more than 90% of the novels are self-published.

The so-called self-publishing means that the quality of the novel does not meet the publishing standards, and the author can only publish it at his own expense. This phenomenon is very common in China.

At first, Wang Lanlan's first mystery novel "Detective Wang Nan" did not meet the publication standards. Later, Wang Tairan spent 5 yuan to help her publish it at her own expense.

This "Student Times" is also a self-published work, and only 50 copies were printed in total.

Putting "Student Times" away, Liu Xing went on to identify other books.

In the next two hours, he checked more than 1600 books and found 5 one-star campus novels.

"There are indeed many good books that were buried more than 40 years ago!"

At this time, Liu Xing took another useless book from the bookshelf. On the cover of the book was a student wearing a doctor's hat. It was also a campus novel, and the title of the book was "How to Become a Top Student".

Liu Xing didn't pay much attention to it, and flipped through it casually.

[Book title] "How to become a master of learning"

【Category】Campus Fiction

【Grade】Three-star
[Matching degree] 26%
Slightly startled.

"Three Star?"

Liu Xing subconsciously flipped through the novel again, with joy on his face, this "How to Become a Top Student" is actually a three-star campus novel!
According to the old collector Sun Xuecai, he has only seen two three-star campus novels, both of which are banned books, which means that there may not be a three-star campus novel published in the formal book market of Huaxia. novel.

This book "How to Become a Master of Learning" may break this deadlock.

"I don't know how much money I can make?"

Liu Xing pondered for a while, but still had no idea.There are no three-star campus novels released on the market, and there is no reference. It is still uncertain how much "How to Become a Top Student" is worth.

The price of a two-star campus novel is between 5000 yuan and 10000 yuan, and the price of a three-star campus novel must be at least ten times higher.

With the appearance of "How to become a master of learning", Liu Xing took a reassurance that this plan to buy waste books is worth the money.

He has purchased more than 21000 campus novels in total, and now he has only checked more than 2000, and he has already found a three-star novel worth more than 5.

A total of 35 yuan was spent on the acquisition of waste books. Judging from the current situation, there should be no pressure to pay back.

Without thinking too much, Liu Xing put away "How to Be a Master of Learning", and continued to test other novels...

……

At the same time, Fugui Book Bar.

In the office, Cai Fugui was sitting in front of the computer and was doing accounts.He has just received 35 yuan from Liu Xing, and is now busy getting it into the account.

At this time, the door of the office opened suddenly, and a young man walked in. He was not in his twenties, and he was slightly fat. His appearance was somewhat similar to Cai Fugui's. It was Cai Fugui's second son, Cai Zhikang.

"Dad, why are the waste books in our library missing?" Cai Zhikang put down his schoolbag and asked strangely.

"It's all sold."

"Sold them all?" Cai Zhikang looked curious, "Who is so stupid to buy so many useless books?"

"Liu Xing bought it." Cai Fugui said, "This morning, this kid spent 35 yuan to clear out the waste books in the library, and moved them all away at once."

"Liu Xing fell ill again?" Cai Zhikang said belatedly, "Last time I heard that Liu Xing was preparing to jump off a building at the Yufeng Hotel, and he had mental problems. It seems that this is true!"

Stepping forward, Cai Zhikang flattered him, "Dad, you did such a great job this time, you finally got your revenge. Liu Xing's family sent my brother to jail, and sooner or later we have to settle the debt with them..."

"Don't worry about these things, you kid!" Cai Fugui's face darkened, and he shouted, "Go and review your homework carefully. If you fail the final exam again, I will interrupt your dog legs!"

Hearing this, Cai Zhikang was so frightened that his body trembled, he dared not speak, and hurriedly sat aside to do his homework.

Cai Zhikang's academic performance has always been very poor, almost at the bottom of the school, several grades behind his brother Cai Zhijian.Cai Zhijian originally had a promising future and was expected to inherit the Cai family business, but unfortunately, because of the "Goddess Raiders Diary", he is now in jail.

Helpless, Cai Fugui can only pin his hopes on his second son Cai Zhikang.

Not long after, the door of the office was knocked again, and Jin Abiao walked in together with five book bar owners.

"Boss Cai, is Liu Xing's matter settled?" Jin Abiao asked with concern as soon as he entered.

"Yes, things went well." Cai Fugui said with a smile, "Liu Xing spent 35 yuan today to buy all my useless books."

"35?" Jin Abiao expressed doubts, "What is Liu Xing thinking? Meteor Book Bar's liquidity is only about 40, and he actually used 35 to buy useless books?"

"The thinking of a mental patient is naturally incomprehensible to us normal people." Cai Fugui joked in his words, "We all overestimated Liu Xing's intelligence. This kid's dementia may not have recovered yet. We happened to Got a great deal."

"It seems that God is helping us!" Lin Zhong, the owner of Dream Book Bar, was a little excited, "Since Liu Xing is so easy to fool, we should strike while the iron is hot, and sell some waste books to him, so as to make him go bankrupt as soon as possible. "

"That's right. I have 5000 useless books in my library. I'll talk to Liu Xing tomorrow." The owner of Qingxin Book Bar said.

"You go first tomorrow, and I will go the day after tomorrow, and try to clear out more than 7000 useless books."

"By the way, Liu Xing spent so much money all at once, and the liquidity of Meteor Book Bar will soon have problems. It should not be far from bankruptcy. We have to raise funds quickly and prepare to acquire Meteor Book Bar."

"You and I have an idea, why don't we discuss the acquisition of Meteor Books first?"

"Alright."
