On may 16th, Gan pu was quiet and peaceful
Jiang Shiguang was sitting on his doorstep, smoking a pipe and cooing
Ever since april, the town had become quieter
From time to time, foreign soldiers passed by the town and even arrested people
He wanted to avoid them, so he went back to the village
There was a The jiang family business here, and he lived in his third son''s house, with his daughter-in-law serving him, so he was at ease
His son went to work in the fields, while his daughter-in-law was busy sitting at dinner
The year was getting worse, and more people were opening their mouths
The town officials would send people to collect food
Sometimes, after collecting food in the town, they would also collect a portion of it, along with bandits and passing troops
As long as all the men with guns were lords, they had recently heard that the government was arresting the communist party and had killed many people
They only hoped that their defeated soldiers would not pass by the town
Jiang Shiguang was daydreaming, and his pipe was getting louder
He was thinking about when to go back to the town, when a group of children quarreled in the distance
The old man huffed and stood up at once
He put the kettle on the ground and said with his mouth, "These little dramas, what a nice day it is not to study, and they are still playing there
Don''t you want to study if you don''t take the credit
" As he spoke, he stepped forward, as if to persuade him
Jiaxing had the style of studying throughout the generations
There were 27 students in the ming and qing dynasties (number one, number one, flower scouting, lu chuan)
Jiang Shiguang had also studied private school when he was young
It was built by the family
Unfortunately, he was not favored by the teachers and did not continue to study in the end
Although he was old now, However, he was even more disgusted with the trick of not reading
He held a cigarette in one hand, lifted his robe in the other, patted it twice and walked towards the entrance of the village
Huang Xuan was surrounded by a group of children
If he was a plane traveler who had been trained, there were countless ways to deal with such a situation, but he didn''t know about it
He was too embarrassed to move
In order to save energy, Lorraine abandoned all the zippers on his body on the p112
Now, Huang Xuan, not only dressed strangely, but also his clothes were in pieces, like beggars, and his pants were cut in the middle
When a group of children saw this scene, they laughed and surrounded him
It was time to go down to the ground
Although it was not a busy farm and there were not many people in the village, the villagers who came out occasionally could not control these many children
Most of them gathered around to watch Huang Xuan''s jokes
Only when Jiang Shiguang arrived did a group of boys disperse
Jiang shiguang looked at Huang Xuan with a scrutinizing gaze
He was a young man with a fair complexion, his fingernails were clean and clean, and he did not have many working cocoons
Although his clothes were torn and tattered, except for his dusty eyes and slight stains, they were clean and clean
It seemed to be similar to the foreign shops in the county
Although his expression was a little unnatural, he was a little livelier than his peers in the village
Old man jiang was not a man who had seen such a big scene, but in his opinion, such a hopeful look rarely appeared on muddy legs
With this thought in mind, Jiang Shiguang made half a bow and said respectfully," this gentleman, but he has been bandited
Is there no family around him
" Although the revolution of 1911 had been over for more than ten years, the problem of bandits had not been solved from the beginning to the end of the republic of china
The lives of the villagers were inextricably linked to bandits
The jiang family village was no exception
But there would not be a large number of bandits, he asked, also want to know the origin of some people in the present
After a group of wild children ran away, Huang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief
When he saw someone asking, he also bowed and said," I am separated from my family
I want to find a shop to live in
I don''t know where it is
"" This is not the main road
" Jiang Shiguang handed the hookah to his left hand and walked over to him
" If you want to stay, you can stay at my house
There''s still an empty house
" No matter how rich he was, he didn''t refuse and replied with a smile," I''ll trouble you
"" It''s no trouble
" Jiang Shiguang led the way and said," in the countryside, it''s a big place
Who doesn''t have an inconvenient time
" From a young age, Huang Xuan had participated in this kind of dialogue very skillfully
Although the times were different and the polite language gradually changed, but the central meaning was nothing more than to talk nonsense
In response to one or two, Huang Xuan relaxed
To the old The jiang family man, this sounded more like a rich kid from a foreign country
He was not familiar with the local customs, but he was quite knowledgeable
These four words were enough to live in a free hotel in Jiaxing
Gan pu was the ancestral tomb of the The jiang family
The mansion looked a little old, but it was not far from dilapidated
The main house in the middle of the village was made of green bricks
The tiles were at least two palms wide and stretched out from the vermilion gate
Stone forehead and stone inscription couplets" wan Cangshan is connected to north Hubei, and yixiu peak is Linxi Jianxi
" The handwriting was excellent, better than many of the literati huang xuan had met with his grandfather
Huang Xuan''s heart moved and his lips moved slightly
" Can you check this
"" No problem
" Without the interference of the same level of base, Lorraine could hear everything he wanted to hear
He answered as he said," searching for information requires a connection to the network
It''s a waste of energy
"" I''ll connect you to the internet when I get back
" Huang Xuan comforted Jiang Shiguang as he followed him
Seeing that Huang Xuan had noticed the ancestral home, Jiang Shiguang slowed down and said," ten years ago, all the books in the The jiang family were stored here
Back then, there were dozens of ships to transport these paintings and books
" He raised his chin as he spoke
Jiaxing has always had the style of collecting books, which started in the southern song dynasty and flourished in the ming and qing dynasties
Although it had declined after xianfeng, in the consciousness of the villagers, there was almost a necessary connection between the family of farming and reading and the series of books
The so-called big families could not lose a part of the library, and the The jiang family was exactly one that conformed to these many elements
Jiang Shiguang''s vanity was satisfied with a slightly surprised but reserved smile
At this time, news of Lorraine also came through:" this building should be the west stream grass hall, where jiang guangtian''s book collection is located
According to standard history, it stored all the books here about 10 years ago, and then it should be moved back to yan fen grass hall
"" Are those books valuable
" Huang Xuan looked around at the quaint houses and was a little bewitched
To continue to travel through the plane, he needed money to buy energy
Lorraine paused for a moment, as if searching for information, then said," according to the information, there should be 100,000 volumes of books, but according to standard history, these books will be donated to the chinese government in the fifties
"" Isn''t that a cover-up
"" No, although there are few rare rare rare books, they are not the only ones
Even if they are the only ones, it is impossible to guarantee that they are truly the only ones in the world
But the owner of the The jiang family cherishes books and it will take a lot of effort to buy them
" Lorraine''s words became more and more interesting, and his words became more and more accurate
However, Huang Xuan still put his mind on the books and said with some frustration," I wanted to send some books back
" The so-called scholars love books, poor scholars like to copy down the books, with the goal of ten thousand books
As for the rich scholars, the requirements were even higher, not only for the content, but also for the rare rare rare rare good books in the world
Therefore, since the song dynasty, the price of valuable books became higher and higher
As far as Huang Xuan knew, more than ten old books hidden in the study by his father were worth millions
The old man at home was even more exaggerating
He used to trade a painting by zhang daqian for a small calligraphy book carved in song dynasty
He even made a profit by shouting
Thinking of this, Huang Xuan''s heart itched again
Seeing that Jiang Shiguang was still intoxicated with the vanity just now, Huang Xuan whispered to Lorraine," then you say, no one sells books around here
"" The information is insufficient, but according to the analysis, since xianfeng, the Jiaxing library has been in tatters
As long as there is enough funds, it should be able to buy a lot of books
But there are still some problems
"" What''s the problem
"" Although books are fragile and plane travel does not take into account the means of preservation, the energy consumed by books is still far greater than food
With the current energy reserve, it is recommended that the total weight of books should not exceed 5 kilograms
" He curled his lips and bought a book for a catty
Lorraine, the comrade of the warden, knew everything he wanted to know, so he focused his energy on old man jiang and wanted to take this opportunity to ask more information
