Chapter 282 Good is mutual
"but you……"
Guan Youshuang wanted to say more, but Zhang Caihe interrupted her impatiently: "Alright, save your nonsense for your child. Xiaojie is my son, it's not your turn to lecture him."
Then, she said to Guan Ruijie in a huff, "Come on, it's just over a hundred dollars. It's not like your mother can't afford it!"
Guan Youshuang sneered and was too lazy to say anything more.
After what happened just now, Jiang Yan felt that Guan Youshuang was probably in a bad mood. She felt a little embarrassed to drag her shopping again. After buying the headband, she made the excuse of waiting for a bus and said goodbye in a hurry.
In fact, Guan Youshuang didn’t care at all. Now, no matter what Zhang Caihe did, she could remain calm.
It's just so magical.
After Jiang Yan left, Guan Youshuang went to Xinhua Bookstore.
Xinhua Bookstore is opposite the Education Bureau.
Because it was almost noon, there were few people in the bookstore. The owner was a quiet young girl, about the same age as Guan Youshuang. She sat at the front desk, resting her chin on one hand, reading a book attentively.
Guan Youshuang glanced at the outside of the bookshelf and walked towards the textbooks section at the innermost part.
She was looking for the book carefully.
It’s not bad. The textbooks are complete. There are dozens of textbooks for three years of high school.
Moreover, Guan Youshuang felt that just buying textbooks was not enough. She also planned to buy a few notebooks to help Gu Errong sort out the knowledge points.
She ran to the stationery stall in the hall and selected 6 thick A4 notebooks.
When the quiet girl saw Guan Youshuang walking towards her easily with a pile of books in her arms, she was so shocked that she couldn't react for a moment.
Guan Youshuang put the book on the table at the front desk and said with a smile, "Please pay the bill."
"Oh, okay." The girl quickly stood up and couldn't help but look at Guan Youshuang a few more times.
It didn't matter that she looked at it, but her little face turned pale.
That bulging belly...
She is actually a pregnant woman!
A pregnant woman dares to carry such a heavy thing. It would be terrible if something happened.
After watching the girl not move for a long time, Guan Youshuang asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
The girl came back to her senses, looked at the side of the book, raised her head and asked: "They are all textbooks. Are you going to take the college entrance examination?"
Guan Youshuang nodded.
"New textbooks are expensive. I have second-hand books here. You can use them if you need them."
Guan Youshuang looked around the bookstore, "Ah? Where are the second-hand books?"
"Follow me." The girl pointed to a small ladder in the corner. "In the basement."
"How about you wait a moment and I'll help you get it up. This ladder is too dangerous."
Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "It's okay, I can do it."
But the girl was worried, so she went down first and helped Guan Youshuang hold the ladder.
As the girl turned on the light bulb, the basement appeared in front of Guan Youshuang.
There were no bookshelves in the basement, but all the books were neatly arranged, and some were even tied up with ropes.
Guan Youshuang was very surprised: "Why don't you sell these books?"
"Second-hand books don't sell well, so putting them up here would just take up space, so I might as well just leave them here."
"Didn't you buy these books?"
"Yes, I bought them. At first I thought these books could be sold, so I put up an advertisement at the school gate. The graduating students sold the books to me. Later, the books could not be sold, but the children spread the word. As soon as they graduated, they brought the books to me to sell. I was too embarrassed to refuse them, so I bought them all."
At this point, the girl smiled shyly.
What a kind girl.
Guan Youshuang felt that the girl was extremely beautiful at this moment.
"Let me help you find the book."
As she spoke, the girl squatted down and began to search carefully. After a while, she took out a senior high school Chinese textbook and handed it to Guan Youshuang: "Look, there are not many notes in this book. It's not too old."
Guan Youshuang took it and looked at it. Except for some scrolls at the corner of the book and the cover being relatively old, the inside was indeed relatively new.
"Let me see if there are any other newer ones." The girl started searching again.
"That's fine. This one is pretty good." Guan Youshuang said quickly, "Let's look for books in other grades and subjects."
Because the books were originally arranged according to categories, it was not difficult to find them. In a short while, they found all the books they needed.
The girl brushed her hair off her forehead, took a long breath, then found a rope and tied up the books.
She lifted it and found it was quite heavy.
"Let me do it."
"But you're pregnant, is that okay?" The girl pointed at Guan Youshuang's belly.
"It's okay. Please help me get down the ladder again."
Having said that, Guan Youshuang stepped on it easily.
After going upstairs, Guan Youshuang took out a hundred yuan and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I still can't take your book for free."
The girl was stunned and said, "What are you doing? I said I was giving it to you, so I gave it to you. If I really wanted to make money from you, I would let you buy a new book."
"But you bought this book too, and you took me so long to choose it. How can I feel embarrassed?"
"That's nothing. You're welcome." The girl put a few blank notebooks on top of the old books and said, "Just pay for six notebooks."
After hearing this, Guan Youshuang felt embarrassed to ask for money. After she paid six yuan, she suddenly thought of something and said, "You can carefully sort through your second-hand books and classify them according to their age. I will find a way to help you sell them then."
The girl's eyes lit up: "Can it really be sold?"
"Of course you can, but it may require some effort on your part. For example, some books may be very old inside, but they are covered with book covers. In that case, we can glue the cover of this book to another book. You can also take the time to tidy up the curled corners inside, press them down with a brick or something, and if they are pencil notes, you can also erase them."
After a pause, Guan Youshuang continued, "Of course, if it's a book written by a top student, the more detailed the notes are, the better. For this type of book, you can name it a series called Top Student's Notes, and it will definitely sell well."
"You are so amazing." The girl looked at Guan Youshuang in admiration, "I have never thought about what you said."
Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "It's not too late to think about it now. I suggest you continue to collect second-hand books, but don't limit yourself to textbooks. You can also collect folk tales, novels, etc. In a few years, when the Internet takes off, you can set up a second-hand book website and make a lot of money."
"The Internet? What is that?"
"This is a bit complicated to explain. Anyway, you will understand it naturally when the time comes. I will help you then. At this stage, you can sort it out first."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
When Guan Youshuang came out of the bookstore, it was already past twelve o'clock. Just as she was about to call Gu Errong, the phone rang.
