Chapter 6 The interface that suddenly appeared
This attic really hasn't been here for many years. After Yang Jing and Guo Xiaoxiang walked in, extremely clear footprints suddenly appeared on the ground.
With the light coming out of the glass window, the situation inside the attic can be seen clearly.
Although this floor is different from the attic in the ordinary sense, it assumes the responsibility of the attic, which is to hold some unnecessary things.
These things that have been stored for many years are piled up in a mess, from the west end of the attic to the door of the staircase at the east end of the attic. There are cartons and wooden boxes, and more of them are items that do not have any packaging. They are thrown on the ground randomly. Yang Jing even saw two small bookshelfs in the attic, filled with various dusty books.
This situation made Guo Xiaoxiang gasp, "Oh Maiga! I said Lao Yang, I really doubt if we can pick up so many things in two days."
Yang Jing also smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Tonight I will find a way to assemble a small spreader. I will tell the manager when I clean it up tomorrow to see if I can set it up at the window. Otherwise, if we just point at the two of us to tidy up these things from the stairs, we will not be able to finish it in three days."
Guo Xiaoxiang nodded and gestured to Yang Jing with a big thumbs up.
The two of them wandered around for a while and had a rough understanding of the things inside, and then they prepared to go out and prepare the tools they would use tomorrow. They carried some tools they usually use when cleaning, but small spreaders such as the ones Yang Jing mentioned just now need to buy some materials from the local shop tonight to assemble them.
Guo Xiaoxiang was walking in front and Yang Jing was walking behind. When passing by a small bookshelf, Yang Jing stopped, took out a rag from his pocket, wiped the dusty books, and the large pieces immediately appeared.
"Wow, this is the 1963 edition of Pride and Prejudice, this is the 1960 edition of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, this is the 1962 edition of the History of Britain..." Yang Jing took out a basic piece from the bookshelf and looked at it, and found that they were all some books published or printed in the 1950s and 1960s.
These books look old on the surface, but after opening them, Yang Jing found that no one seemed to have read these books. Obviously, these books were probably bought by Baron William Valdy's father or grandfather to decorate the study, but they were thrown in the attic by someone.
These books have been around for a long time. After all, they were printed in the 1960s. Even if they were popular books, they would be of some value if they were taken out.
This discovery made Yang Jing very happy.
For those who work in their business, the daily salary given by the owner is only a small part of the income, and the main income comes from the "garbage" that the owner does not want.
After all, it is something that the rich have used. These things are originally good things, and may not be anything to those rich, but they are still very good for ordinary people.
These garbage distributors often find some pretty good things in it when dealing with the "garbage" that rich people don't want, and then pay the manager to buy these things, and then earn a considerable price difference when they get it at the flea market.
It was like the year when Guo Xiaoxiang first entered the industry, he found a bicycle inside while packing up a manor in Tombridge. Guo Xiaoxiang bought the bicycle from the butler for eighty pounds, but the bicycle was sold at a flea market for seven hundred pounds.
That bicycle was a small cloth folding bicycle, and it was a limited edition commemorative six-speed car launched by the small cloth bike in 2000. You should know that an ordinary second-hand small cloth folding bicycle is sold at a price of more than 10,000 yuan in China. If this limited edition commemorative car is a new car, it will cost more than 2,000 pounds even if it is bought in the UK.
But the owner of the manor was so rich that the small cloth bicycle that might have been bought for his children was treated as garbage. Of course, Guo Xiaoxiang bought it from the manor butler for money, but it was the eighty pounds that exchanged Guo Xiaoxiang for 700 pounds of income.
The fat man’s golf was bought with that profit.
Of course, it is not so easy to bring out some items that are neglected by the owner. After all, if you want to bring out things from it, you must go through the inspection of the butler or the manager and determine their value. However, those items with high value cannot be brought out, but those things that are of high value to ordinary people but are not much in the eyes of the rich.
These garbage disposalers are pointing to this money-making.
You don’t need to find waste items of great value when you are in this business, you just need to continuously find some valuable things.
These books are obviously of the kind of items that are not very valuable but profitable. Since these books have been thrown here by the owner for more than fifty years, it is obvious that the owner does not care about these books. But if these books are sold at the flea market, they can definitely be sold at a higher price than the new books.
If both bookshelf have such books, these books alone will be enough to make Yang Jing and Guo Xiaoxiang rich.
Yang Jing was excitedly about to tell Guo Xiaoxiang, but suddenly felt that the little finger of his left hand had a hotter temperature, as if a heat was smothering him.
The next moment, Yang Jing saw a transparent interface suddenly appear in front of him, with four lines clearly showing the words - "National Dictionary of Biography of People", 1958 edition, published by Oxford University Press.

This transparent interface with four lines of characters appeared so abruptly that Yang Jing was so scared that he almost jumped up.
"What-the-fu.ck!" Yang Jing cursed in a low voice, and then the interface that suddenly appeared suddenly disappeared.
Then, as if he realized something, Yang Jing looked down at his left hand and found that the large head he had just held with his left hand had fallen to the ground.
"What's going on?" Yang Jing murmured to himself, looked up and looked at Guo Xiaoxiang who was about to walk to the attic door, forcibly pressed the urge to call the fat man, and lowered his head and thought again.
After thinking for a while, Yang Jing tried to pick up the big book that fell to the ground again, but he held the book with his right hand, but nothing appeared.
I flipped through the book and saw the publication date of the book on the back of the book. It was indeed published by Oxford University Press in 1958.
As a student who has studied in the UK for two years, Yang Jing certainly knew about this set of "National Biography Dictionary".
This set of books is an important reference book for biographies of British people. It was originally called the "National Dictionary of Biography of the National Dictionary". The first edition was released as early as 1885 and has been continuously updated and revised since then. It was not until September 2004 that this set of books was renamed the "Oxford National Dictionary of Biography of the National Dictionary of Biography of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the National Dictionary of the
Since this set of books is from 1958, its name naturally remains the same as its original old name.
