All brands were divided by themes and years. Good thing, the internet. You can see everything you need, what is valued and how much is appreciated.
The work was quite slow. You had to browse more than one site to find the right information.
Two days have passed, but the routine work has not shown significant results. The stamps were mostly quite ordinary. Although the dates on them were 1950 or 1960, but according to catalogs they were worth mere pennies.
After all, on the third day they were lucky. Lisa was looking through another photo of the page. One of the stamps in the row was one. I guess Grandpa did not know which series to put it in.
The image on the stamp was of little interest. It is an old battle. On top was the inscription «250 years of historic Poltava victory.» The 1959 mark was worth 40 cents. Well, the date and date. My grandfather had such stamps. Stamps were very often issued by some date. Lisa began to view the information about this brand, not expecting to learn something interesting. However, the information was quite unexpected.
«Unissued postage stamp of the USSR in 1959. On the mark denomination of 40 cents captured Swedish troops. Before the issue of the brand, diplomatic relations with Sweden improved. In order not to offend the partners, it was simply decided to destroy the circulation.
Officially, the postage stamp was sold for several minutes, after which the circulation was seized and destroyed. Forty stamps have been preserved. It is known that it costs about 10—20 thousand dollars.»
Oh, my! Lisa read this information several times and immediately shared it with Olga. They double-checked everything again. There was no mistake.
That is what the grandson might have been interested in. Take away, in case of this brand in the old people, no one would notice. Well, you will think, there is no one of the two thousand stamps.
It took the girls another day and a half to see the rest of the stamps, but nothing special else came across.
Lisa called Nikolai Ivanovich and arranged a meeting.
Nikolai Ivanovich was not alone at home this time. His wife Anna Andreevna was hustling in the kitchen. By the girls’ arrival, she decided to make a cake for tea. Sitting at the table, the girls began to talk, but Nikolai Ivanovich asked to wait for Anna Andreevna to join them.
Lisa took out only one piece of paper from the folder and put it on the table. Starting the conversation was not easy, as it was necessary to think about how to say and what to say. Olga looked at those around her.
– Nikolai Ivanovich- she began. Lisa and I checked your stamp collection for value. You have about two thousands of them. All but one of them do not represent any special value. However, one brand is quite valuable. We printed out its characteristics and its approximate value.
Lisa handed out a leaf to Nikolai Ivanovich. Grandpa put on his glasses and started reading. After a while, he put the leaf aside, took off his glasses and looked at the girls.
– You know, I had no idea, I had anything of value, – he began. At one time, I remember, many were chasing rare brands. I did not have any money. I bought what I liked for a minimum price. I did not even have a special collectible system. Some amateurs collected only certain series. One is only fauna. The other is flora. Well, I» kept it going. Maybe he was young. I did not know much about it. I do not even remember how she got to me. Perhaps this brand was exchanged from a man who did not know its value.
– So. What am I going to do about it?
– Nikolai Ivanovich – Lisa started. I think your grandson will get to that information, too. Will come to visit you for this brand. Naturally, he will try to take it.
Of course, we can offer you something, but you have to decide. If you really value this brand, it should be removed from the album and hidden in a safe place. Well, as for me, I would implement it for such a decent sum. With this money, you would live easier in old age. We could repair your house, upgrade your furniture, and leave something for a rainy day.
– Thank you girls, – said Nikolai Ivanovich, looking at his wife. We will think about it. However, you are doing great. Nowadays it is difficult to meet decent people. There are so many crooks now. I would love to pay you for this job. We have talked about the sum before, but I will add a little. Good work should be well paid.
Going home, the girls were in good spirits. It is not even about the money, although two hundred dollars in our time is good money. The main thing is that they did something. That is their first case.
CHAPTER 4
In summer, time runs fast. It is the winter that lasts. The girls were doing their own thing. Having completed the first case of investigation, they did not really expect to continue. Hobby, it is a hobby. Well, who among us in his youth was not fond of adventurous projects?
But about ten days later, Lisa got an e-mail: «Hello. My name is Sergey Gennadievich. I am the director of Astarte. I appeal to you after reading your ad. If you don’t get into trouble, please contact me by phone.»
The phone number was listed in the letter and Lisa did not hesitate to call the specified number.
She got a nice man’s voice. Lisa read somewhere that the voice can be said about the character of the person, about his mood. By voice, you can understand whether it is necessary to deal with this person or to shun him. The level of human development is heard in the voice. Yes, probably, a whole science defines a person by voice. However, Lisa and without science felt, with this person it is pleasant to communicate.
The conversation was not long. Sergey Gennadievich offered to meet at the Chico Cafe at lunchtime in the city center and discuss all the issues.
Lisa, after a little thought, agreed. To meet in the center of the city in a cafe, it is not on the edge of the forest, where they can «stitch». She did not see the dangers in that meeting. They agreed to meet the next day at two o’clock.
Lisa called Olga and told her about the upcoming meeting. After all, she is a companion and she should know everything.
Lisa tried to dress more respectable for this meeting. Come it in a sporty form, the confidence in it will be much lower. As she approached the cafe, Lisa tried to prepare herself morally for the meeting. It will not be possible to conduct a conversation loosely, but it is not necessary to show prudish self. We should try to arrange the interlocutor to yourself.
When she went to the cafe, Lisa got the phone and was going to call, but a nice man approached her and politely said
