at dusk.
In the alley, there are more than a dozen book stalls here and there.
In some cases, a piece of rag was spread out on the ground, and a piece of plastic paper was placed on it to place books.
Some are mobile carts, which are full of all kinds of pirated books, pirated tapes, CDs, etc., and small radios can also be seen.
It's not dark yet, there are already customers like Lin Sheng and Shen Yan hanging out in the alley, not many in number, but quite popular.
Many guests lingered, and some squatted directly in front of a bookstall to read books.
Up the alley there was a single source of light, a powerful light bulb without a shade. It was estimated to be 100 watts, illuminating the entire alley below.
Shen Yan mixed with the sparse crowd, and rushed to the first bookstall with great interest to scan.
She is very experienced. In order to hide at the book stalls, she often does not place the little yellow books in the most conspicuous position.
But she is the fastest to lock the hidden points of these small books.
Lin Sheng ignored her, and slowly scanned the large dictionaries on the bookstall by himself.
He had only swept halfway through the first book stall, and Shen Yan had already reached the third stall.
Lin Sheng was not in a hurry, he glanced around, but he didn't find the dictionary in Gulein's language, so he moved to the second stall.
He remembered that there should also be stalls here, and all kinds of translation dictionaries, although they are pirated, can definitely save a lot of money.
Sweeping through the stalls one by one, Lin Sheng found a dictionary in Gulein's language on the fourth stall in front of a book seller on the ground.
"How do you sell this?" Lin Sheng squatted down, pulled out a dictionary from a pile of messy old books and asked.
"Fifteen, no bargaining." The stall owner wore square glasses and a gray cloth mask, as if he didn't want others to know his face.
"Your words are not very clear, and the printing is not good. I will get a copy for five yuan." Lin Sheng countered.
"I can't get five yuan. At least ten yuan. The little brother seems to come here often, so he should know our market." The stall owner said quickly.
"Ten yuan..." Lin Sheng shook his head and stood up as if to leave.
"All right, five yuan is five yuan." The stall owner decided decisively.
"Here." Lin Sheng quickly took out the change from his pocket, counted five yuan and handed it to the other party.
After giving the money, he picked up the book and flipped through it again.
The dictionary is legible and well reproduced, about as thick as a brick.
A pirated book like this usually costs at least twenty. After all, the genuine ones cost forty.
The reason why it can be so cheap is that the books are too unpopular, and there are very few people who need to buy the Gurren Word Dictionary.
Among the hundreds of books in the whole stall owner, there is only such a book.
And the key point is that the water chestnut of this dictionary has a lot of wear and tear, and the whole book is abnormally loose, and it seems that it will fall apart at any time.
"Nothing else, as long as it works."
As soon as Lin Sheng thought about the words recorded, he couldn't wait to go back and translate. Five yuan is more than his daily allowance, just save a little. Although it is a bit painful, but if you go back and sew it manually, the book may increase in value.
Soon, Shen Yan in front also approached mysteriously with a bag of books.
"How is it?" she asked in a low voice.
"I bought a dictionary." Lin Sheng raised the book in his hand. The red-skinned and white-edged dictionary is in stark contrast to the little yellow book in Shen Yan's bag.
"You are?" Shen Yan stared at Lin Sheng with a distorted expression. Like meeting him for the first time.
"It's okay, go back and rest." Lin Sheng said calmly.
"Pretending to be real," Shen Yan curled her lips. But she also understands Lin Sheng's temper, this guy has always been like this. This is one of the reasons why she likes to pull Lin Sheng out to cover.
"Okay, I've picked three books here, and we'll share them equally. One book costs four yuan, and the third book costs twelve yuan. Just give me six yuan." Shen Yan whispered.
"No money." Lin Sheng was speechless. In the past, he was willing to buy it because he would rent it out for others to make some money.
After all, in school, most students are not willing to spend several dollars to buy books, and this kind of books are good to read, if you really want to
