Confrontation and it seems the recipes are not so simple

Shir Ali examined the book ... it was frayed, the pages were dilapidated, between them he found a sheet of paper covered with small letters. It was the old Russian language, tsarist times. It was written on paper, some two old recipes for cooking.

"Wow! They can be sold! For food tourism or historical culinary researchers, this is a treasure! You can easily sell recipes for a couple of hundred dollars!"

It was a rare piece of luck. The book itself was dilapidated, but Shir Ali did not buy it for this. He was attracted by an old map from 1892.

Old maps were prized in the market for treasure hunters and history buffs. Even a scanned copy of an old 19th century map could cost a couple of tens of dollars. And copies could be sold on stocks several dozen times.

There was a chuckle from the next room.

Dara, however, groaned in the next room, his grandfather beat him, all his heels were on fire. 30 blows to the heels with rods. Grandfather, had strict rules. The badge, which his grandson was so proud of, was immediately taken away by his grandfather.

"You yourself must make your way through life, not relying on your background! You oh grandson, I will not allow you to become the garbage of the" golden youth "! Only hard work, overcoming trials, makes a man a real man"! Grandfather said.

"Well, you couldn't expect anything else from the old, stubborn hard worker!" Dara thought sadly.

The great communist empire fell. No one enslaved her, no one conquered it. Everything turned out to be banal, prosaic. The victorious faction of young communists, the new elite, sold the empire itself and destroyed it. Young communists instantly became capitalists. After that, Dara stopped believing in ideology and propaganda. He only laughed at his grandfather, who spoke about equality, socialism. True, Dara, he laughed when his grandfather was not around. The main goal of the Gift was a life without worries, a quiet peaceful life and the possibility of capital accumulation. To do this, he made efforts, engaged in treasure hunting, as a farmer and businessman. Now, Dara was on vacation, from the farm and its worries.

But while on vacation, he did not forget about making quick money. Dara and her cousin decided to pursue antiques and urban research into antiquity.

At flea markets, city fairs, second-hand bookstores, sometimes valuable items could be found. They were worth the money.

Meanwhile, in the country where Dara lived, there were carpet battles, the allies Great Northern Power and China, shared the sphere of influence.

The Northern Power tried to squeeze China out of Small An. By giving out big loans. However, China has been in the Small-An market for the past 25 years ... all clothing, shoes, dishes, electronics have been made in China. Without China in Small-An, there would be no digital age.

There was a latent confrontation. The Northern Power wanted to oust China and take its place.

But only time could show someone who was the winner in this battle.

7 days have passed ...

... Dara and Shir Ali bent over the map, it is interesting that the recipes also had some overlaps with the map.
