Master descends to earth

Chapter 200
"Whenever a friend came to visit him, he would tell them that if he wanted to eat oranges, he would go to Rongbao Zhai to buy them. The oranges there were delicious, and there were many girls there, all of whom were very enthusiastic."

After speaking, he pointed to the plaque at the door, and said proudly: "The plaque on the lintel of Rongbaozhai was also written by the old man Baishi, and the huge plaque in the center of the hall promotes national culture is his own inscription. Our Rongbaozhai is now Qi Baishi's authenticity in the circle. In the highest place, there are hundreds of Qi Baishi's exquisite works, which are unmatched and unrivaled!"

Ling Junsheng sipped tea and said with a light smile, "I heard a lot of interesting stories about the old man Baishi. He was 75 years old that year. His old friend Hu Peiheng came to the old man's house and took out an album and asked Qi Baishi to draw mosquitoes. Qi Baishi looked distressed and thought for a while. Then he said: Mosquitoes are pests, and painted frogs eat them."

"So I just drew a frog that wanted to jump, but didn't draw the frog's eyes. Then I drew a flying mosquito on the upper left end of the frog. Its wings are long and thin, and its tentacles and legs are thin and long. It really feels like it can move when touched. .”

"Qi Baishi looked at it and said: It's a pity that there is no sound. The frog must really see the mosquito. He watched carefully from a little distance away, and then used burnt ink to point out the frog's eyes to stare at the flying mosquito. Inscription on the right."

"Finally, I handed the painting to Hu Peiheng and others and said, "This is the first time I have painted a mosquito. I don't know what to do?" !"

Shopkeeper Wu laughed loudly and said: "I have met many famous people, but only the old man Baishi can be said to have a real temperament! He was born in a poor family, and relying on hard work and talent to make a generation of masters. He usually loves money like his life, and there is a sign on the door of his house. Maoyan, guests have to check in person when they come to the door. The money in the house is also in and out, all locked in his box and placed under his bed, and no one is allowed to move."

"Someone once asked for a painting with shrimp as the theme. Qi Baishi finished the painting and counted it. After finishing the painting, this person asked for an extra shrimp as a common practice when buying vegetables in the vegetable market."

"The old man was displeased, but he still picked up the pen and added a shrimp to the painting. The man looked at the painting and found that the shrimp was out of shape and lifeless, which was a bit strange. Qi Baishi said: "What do you want to add?" This shrimp is not included in the price, so drawing a dead shrimp for you is a free gift. "

Everyone roared with laughter, Su Yuan shook his head secretly, it was the first time he heard such an interesting story about old man Baishi, and the master also had a mortal side.

Shopkeeper Wu took a sip of tea and recalled: "I still remember the first time I visited the old man Baishi. When he saw a stranger, he unlocked the door of the cupboard as usual and took out two plates of snacks for guests. One plate of moon cakes, one plate with shells peanuts."

"Mr. Keran took care of me when I came here. The old man will bring out two plates of these things. Three quarters of the mooncakes are left, and the peanuts are in a shallow plate. They are all broken and can't be eaten!"

"After we sat down, I looked at this long-known dim sum from a distance, and found that inside the opened mooncake, there were tiny worms moving around the peeled peanuts, and there were faintly flashing spider webs. It was really scary."

"It was only later that I found out that this is the old man's rule. In the process of etiquette, I don't want the reckless guests to really do it. God knows in what year and month did the greedy and reckless guests kill the quarter of the moon cakes? "

After hearing this, Su Yuan couldn't help laughing and said: "Great talents, great entertainers, and great writers, the way they treat others is different from ordinary people. It is probably related to their unique perspective on the world."

"People with ordinary talents and minds see the world as a mountain and the water as water when it comes to social human relationships and worldly conditions. But these famous people, when they look at social human relationships and worldly conditions, they see that mountains are not mountains, and water is not water. .”

"Little friend has extraordinary knowledge and makes sense!"

Shopkeeper Wu raised his teacup and invited everyone to drink together. They chatted for a whole morning before returning home happily.Back at the hotel, Ling Junsheng was a little tired and said: "There is no way, since you want to grab food from other people's territory, you must be prepared to be slapped in the face!"

The old man put down his teacup and warned: "This is just the beginning, and our every move in the future will definitely attract attention. Not only us, but even my old friends will be implicated, so we must think twice before acting."

Ling Tiancheng nodded in agreement, it's not easy for the old man, he has devoted all his life to academic research and has never set foot in business, now not only Tian Cheng, but also his father's reputation and face have been put into a desperate gamble by him, becoming a gamble chip.

This battle can only be won, not defeated!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the calm Su Yuan beside him. All his hopes were placed on this guy. Thinking about the magic of the other party, his confidence was greatly boosted, and he said seriously: "Don't worry, old man, this time we will act steadily and will not rush for success." Make enemies on all sides!"

"I invited my colleagues to dinner and expressed goodwill for cooperation. Many people basically accepted it. After all, many friends have many paths. As long as they don't block other people's money, they can get by on the surface."

"Our greatest enemy should be Dong Guoqiang from the Kuang family!" Ling Tiancheng said with a sinking face, "I heard that Fatty Fei came to the capital secretly, just to inform Dong Guoqiang that the traitor is secretly watching us, hmph, I knew it earlier I shouldn't be soft-hearted about what happened last time!"

Ling Junsheng waved his hand and retorted: "It's useless to talk about this kind of talk. Fatty Fei has been cultivating the Central Plains for so many years, and he is not a character who can be easily defeated. It's also good. It's better for the enemy to jump out and jump on the table earlier than to hide." Strong in the dark."

Su Yuan nodded in agreement, the old man is worthy of being a veteran who has experienced many battles, but those who can show their swords and guns are all gentlemen. Shopping malls are like battlefields, and those who have the ability to compete with dignity.I'm afraid of a black-bellied villain who will make trouble secretly, which is shameless.

Now I am the major shareholder of Tiancheng, no matter the interests or the favor are inseparable, this battle must be won beautifully, now I am just a Kuang family, the two leaders of Baolijiade are happy to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, not to mention Jiashide who is eyeing the tiger And Sophie!

Tiancheng seemed to become the center of the vortex, instantly breaking the seemingly peaceful situation in the capital, which is also normal. Ling Tiancheng and Dong Guoqiang are both young and powerful, and they are leaders of their peers in terms of fame and connections. They have been secretly compared for many years, and now they are finally Have the opportunity to confront head-on and see who is the real strong!
Ling Junsheng sighed secretly, he didn't want the Ling family to be involved in the dispute, but now he was on the verge of riding a tiger, and while he was still useful, the last fight was also the last step to send Ling Yuxin off.

"Let's visit Dai Yuexuan tomorrow. Old Dai is a low-key person, but he has deep connections. Even if he doesn't help, you can leave a way out and get out."

Dai Yuexuan?Su Yuan has heard about it for a long time, and it was built in September 1916.Its founder, surnamed Dai, surnamed Bin, surnamed Yuexuan, was proficient in making Hu brushes since he was a child, with superb skills. Dai Yuexuan is the only time-honored shop name in Liulichang.

The production of a Hu pen requires many processes, and each process must be carefully produced and strictly controlled. Therefore, the pens produced can achieve the four characteristics of inner beauty and outer beauty, nib tip, neatness, roundness, and health. , deeply trusted by calligraphers and painters.

Ling Junsheng looked at Su Yuan, and said with a smile: "Now Dai Yuexuan doesn't just rely on brushes, his business has expanded to include the four treasures of the study, including brushes, ink, paper and inkstones. He has an inseparable relationship with Xilin Printing House and a deep background, so we should not be underestimated."

"Although you don't specialize in antique appraisal, you are very talented. The so-called art is not overwhelming, so you must learn more. With the status of a Taoist priest, you can't suffer if you walk around with us old guys a lot!"

Su Yuan nodded with a smile. The old man loves him very much. These connections are top-notch connections. Any one of them is enviable. Where is Liulichang?An antique nest can stand there for a hundred years, how can it be a waste of fame.
