1961，Richard Boss, who graduated from Oxford University, did not go to the world，Even a slightly larger city nearby did not go，Instead, he returned directly to his hometown Haiyi Town，Open a second -hand bookstore。From then，He continues to acquire old books，Then it has driven the town's households to develop the old book industry。Boys for decades working hard for a day，Haiyi Town into the world's first old book town，Become a tourist destination。

bet365 best casino games Seeing his entrepreneurial time，I feel deeply，That is the second year I was born，The historical history of Haiyi Book Town is basically the same age as me! A Jiazi，Mr. Booth is busy in this ancient town，Operating your own old book kingdom，or even "Kings"，What a down -to -earth romantic life!

Ancient City Haiyi at the junction of Wales and England，Now I am in the national park，The green Way River is the fifth largest river in the UK，Stretching more than 200 kilometers in the mountains，Remit to the famous Saiwen River into the sea，There are mountains and water，Ancient Castle，There are ancient Shizilu Shangjie，It is a rare landscape tourist destination。But in 1961，This border town is a remote country。There are more than 800 years of history in the town，But with industrialization and several wars，This town of agricultural civilization has gradually declined。This area is a mountainous area，Very far away from big cities，The nearest railway station is more than 30 kilometers away，No tourists come in，Young people often go out and study in college.，All conspiracy to live abroad，The beautiful town becomes wither and decline。

According to the logic and path of this "escape"，Graduates at Oxford University is the most qualified to escape the hometown、People who are honored outside，At least you can work hard and then return to the hometown。But he may be unbearable in his heart，Can't bear to give up the remote but beautiful but beautiful ancient city hometown，I just want to return to my hometown after graduation，Alone with your own roots，Be with your family。So he returned from Oxford University to this small mountain city that does not need Oxford degree at all。

Young Richard seems to be very emotional、Very romantic，At the same time, it is also considered "not big aspiration"。He is just a book like a book，Like the old book，firmly believes that "old book will not die"，He said, "Even if a book Bet365 app download is inconspicuous，Not attracted attention from 99%，But 1%of people need it "。It's such a simple creed，Opening his hometown entrepreneurial road。He found an abandoned fire station，Open the first old bookstore in the town。Then he ordered himself to be "group owner"，Zhang Luo，The people in the town join his team，Collecting old books everywhere，Buy the old theaters and abandoned ancient castles (the ruins of hundreds of years)，Create one second -hand bookstore after another。An ancient town in the poor villages turned gorgeously into a book town，Immediately cultural atmosphere，Also popular。

They not only acquire old books in the UK，Also go to the United States to buy，Buy the old book in the closed library，Ship back to the Town of the UK，full town with old books。It becomes an old book warehouse，Therefore, it has become a must -visit place for collectors。Reported in 1976，He has become the person with the most second -hand books in the Guinness World Record，Since then, the town is famous for its reputation，attracted followers elsewhere to open the old bookstore here，and even more and more bookstores。

　Not only feelings and love can succeed

Some people commented，Richard first is a collection of books，Love Book，This is the fundamental of his business。But why did you choose this beautiful and blocked place，This shows that he has an economic mind，There is also market foreseeableness，This has nothing to do with his graduate of Oxford University。When a person's feelings are perfectly combined with the ideal means，He will have numerous successful ideas and wins。It is said that he found that although his hometown was blocked，But it is on the border of Wales and England，Between Birmingham and Bristol，There is also a highway to Ireland through the city and pass through the city，This geographical location is favorable，Can help Shuzhen gather bet365 live casino games popularity。He also believes that it is far from London，People will not be "controlled" by London，I don’t know what this means，I understand it as simple people here，The aroma is strong，Reador not impetuous，It is not affected by the metropolis of Drunk Gold Fans in the metropolis，I will love reading and collection。Especially in modern society，A pure land is suitable for the development of the low -cost old book market，Book Town, which is promoted by old books，Also in line with the concept of low -carbon environmental protection，The crowds of contacts are also people who love books，Can be described as no white ding，As a tourist destination，Book as a matchmaker，Naturally add elegance，Follow the spiritual pursuit of modern people。

Richard should see this problem in the 1960s。He is building a stay away from the hustle and bustle，It is also conducive to people's simple special book incense space，Attract fellows。His hobby，His hobby、feelings、The market is perfectly combined。Also，The residents in the town are actually "confused" by his concept，Believe him，willing to follow him to start a business，Create a characteristic town，So the world's first old book capital develops，Later proved that he was right，Now the town is called "Town of Books"。

Book as a matchmaker，Gather the world's elegant，Appreciate the peerless scenery ancient town，This beautiful place hidden in the deep mountains is gradually admired by the outside world in a time of a Jiazi，Become an Internet celebrity。What does this mean? Not only feelings and love can succeed，Not any fairy tales in the mountains and rivers can become an Internet celebrity tourist area，But the lack of beautiful mountains and rivers is absolutely indispensable。Everything must be good at time and place。And those who match all of this must have a crazy person like Richard，Bet365 lotto review Maybe it is also an essential condition to read Oxford?

　　Real "International Book Fair" for the whole year of the year

Of course, there are the hard -working and wisdom of people in the town。Although the British second -hand book market has been developing history for many years，The market is mature and developed，Almost all cities have old bookstores，But a huge old book town like Haiyi Town，Still amazing。Bookshelf on the street，Hall on the side wall is embedded with a bookcase，Hall on the side wall is embedded with a bookcase，It is filled with ancient books，Ancient buildings include the ancient castles have been made into bookstores，It is said that even the taste of the old book is permeated on the streets of the town，This scene is reminiscent of the words "love" and "professional"。

No need to bargain here，Hard -shell hardcover only pound，The price of cabbage like this makes you embarrassed to repay the price，Directly submit ten pounds，Holding ten hard -shell hard -shell hardcover ancient books! Come to Haiyi Town on the bank of the River to Haiyi Town，You can also visit the Bretken Bicken National Park here，Drive the canoe，Fishing、Riding、Hunting，You can also go to the longest river in the UK not far away in the UK。Can the real -world "international book fair" unblocked throughout the year be more beautiful? Maybe this is what Richard unexpectedly，However, he can't keep his footsteps when he starts。

In addition to the daily old bookstore，Haiyi Literature and Art Festival has become the world business card of this town。1987，A young actor likes the natural landscape and literary atmosphere here，Founded Haiyi Literature and Art Festival，From the end of May to the beginning of June every year, a period of one phase，Ten days，Count this year，A total of 35 sessions were held in total，It should be regarded as another big book event outside the Frankfurt Book Fair。Haiyi Literature and Art Festival was originally Bet365 lotto review sponsored by the Times，It will be co -sponsored by the British "Guardian" and Haiyi Town since 2001.，Gathering cultural celebrities around the world，Poet、Writer、Artist、Actor、Musician、Environmentalists、architect，or even scientists，Come to participate in various forums and discussions，There will be about 300 activities each time，It also attracted a large number of tourists from Europe。Now，This festival has become one of the largest nationwide reading activities in the UK。A remote town even assumes the responsibility of the world -class literature and art festival，The town in the festival is full of sound，Children are happy to play in the ocean of the book.。

"Crazy" Richard is indeed "playing crazy"。He said he wants 1 million books，More books than all British universities。He himself was "King" on April 1, 1977 on April 1, 1977，Announce that the town is separated from the British "independence"。It is reported to be reported，He named a horse as his prime minister，The waiter of the bar is appointed "Ambassador to the Netherlands"，Greek theme bookstore is the "Greek Embassy in Sea Yi"。He also printed his own currency and stamp、Passports，Also discussing the sale。As "King"，He holds various rituals regularly every year，Appointment and removal officials、Xiayu Book。He is still in whimsical，Establishing the first twisted first in the center of the town，Officials and criminals who neglected their duties beheaded，But the personal model is used。Of course, these can be regarded as travel and entertainment programs，Old book fans who attract all over the world come here for Yaju。Use the local people's evaluation of Richard's words，He runs an old bookstore，Not for money，but for crazy，For the party and good time。

But such crazy and beautiful time really let Haiyi Town stand out，Radio 2000 people in a town，Drive bet365 live casino games the related tourism industry，benefit one party，Become a legend。2004，Queen of the United Kingdom awarded Richard Boss British Empire (MBE)，High recognition of his contribution to the development of the British tourism industry。
