antique on the run

When talking about business, Saiwei put away his lazy look, sat up straight and said, "Xiachuan Qingquan must like Miss Sakura very much."

He pointed to his head: "From what I received, Xia Chuanqingquan's memory about Sakura, he met Sakura for the first time at the geisha parade two years ago, and in your Chinese words, he fell in love with that girl at first sight .”

"In the past two years, Xiachuan Qingquan has made many portraits of Sakura and other geisha of Xiaoxi's family. All the expenses and the rest were given to Sakura, so that his family often didn’t even have money to buy food. Akiko Ko was not wrong about this.”

However, Rao was mentally prepared, and Saiwei was still taken aback when he saw Xia Chuanqingquan's residence for the first time——

He really lived a life of poverty at the lowest level in silence, but he presented all the good things in front of Sakura.

"Xia Chuan Qingquan learned from Ito Hiroya three years ago. He met Sakura just after getting a little fame, and then gave up pottery making and concentrated on painting oil paintings. No wonder there are so few pottery handed down by Xia Chuan Qingquan from later generations. He will My main focus is on pleasing the cherry blossoms, so I don’t have the energy to make pottery.”

He made a bull's-eye move: "Shot by Cupid's arrow of Cupid, Xia Chuan Qingquan can't see anything but cherry blossoms in his eyes."

Although Xia Chuan Qingquan is a rare pottery genius in the world, this talent is not reflected in oil paintings. His paintings are good, but they are still far behind real famous artists.It is only because Japanese oil paintings are so rare in this era that his paintings have become so valuable.

This is the tragedy of this era. It is obvious that his pottery works have higher artistic value, but due to factors of the times, they are far less than the price that can be sold for an ordinary oil painting.

Therefore, in order to earn more money for his beloved Miss Sakura, Xiachuan Qingquan would rather give up the long-obsessed pottery craft and paint oil paintings every day.

"From this point of view, he is indeed very affectionate, but it's a pity that he meets someone who is not good. The woman he likes knows that he is living a hard life because of him, but still pretends not to know, and continues to accept the money given by Xiachuan Qingquan with peace of mind."

Sai Wei was deeply moved, but he never thought that Xia Chuan Qingquan, a generation of famous pottery makers all over the world, was actually such an infatuated person in his bones.

Qi Xiao: "..."

How would he tell Sai Wei that being rude is not used to describe men...

Qi Xiao can see that, although Saiwei's Chinese is not bad, but the idioms... Hehe, it's a mess!

However, although the idiom is not used properly, the meaning is correct. Isn’t Xia Chuanqingquan just being unkind to others? He gave Sakura his heart and liver, and tried his best to treat her well, but in the end, he lost both money and money. Yinghua married the general as a noble concubine gracefully, but Xia Chuanqingquan refused to marry for her life.

It's really not worth it.

Qi Xiao looked on coldly, thinking that Xia Chuanqingquan was really not very smart to be so devoted to such a woman.

Qi Xiao pulled the written rice paper aside with his paws, dipped the ink again, and wrote on the new paper:

【Cherry Blossom Pottery】

Saiwei came over to have a look, and said, "You want to ask Miss Sakura for the cherry blossom that bloomed the earliest in Kyoto that I printed on the pottery plate?"

The little cat nodded, and Sai Wei thought thoughtfully: "Miss Sakura originally wanted a cherry blossom pottery plate, but in the end it turned into a meow claw pottery plate. I guess it should be Xiachuan Qingquan who made trouble when the pottery plate was made, and accidentally I pressed the paw print on it, so the cherry blossom print became a cat paw print. I don’t know what Xia Chuan Qingquan thought later, but he actually gave the meow claw pottery plate to Miss Sakura.”

Probably because I found that the small paw prints of meat are much cuter than flowers.

He blinked at Qi Xiao, showed a sly smile, and said, "So, Qi Xiao, I'm not going to look for that flower, okay?"

Although interrogative sentences were used, Saiwei's eyes clearly told Qi Xiao that he knew it was okay not to look for him.

He actually wanted to play around the edges, because although the pursuit of antiques requires a high degree of restoration of history, it is only the history related to antiques.As an "audience", antiques watch the history that is closely related to themselves, and often turn a blind eye to irrelevant things, muddling along.

That is to say, the hunter only needs to fully restore the whole process of the creation of the antique, and he has the power to adapt to some other innocuous matters.

For example, if the pursuer paints the "Mona Lisa" as Da Vinci, the woman sitting opposite is not Mona Lisa, but Mona Lisa's sister Mona Linda or Mona Lau Lah, even if the person in the painting still looks like the Mona Lisa, this antique hunt will still fail, because the history directly related to the "Mona Lisa" has been tampered with, and the antique as the "viewer" must not Bear.

But what if it’s just trivial things that change, like the real Leonardo wearing a beige checkered waistcoat for this painting, while The Man Who Wants is wearing a black one.

——Such small things will not affect the main process of the creation of "Mona Lisa", so such small bugs will be ignored.

As far as the meow claw pottery plate is concerned, if the last imprint on the pottery plate is not a cat’s claw, but is the earliest cherry blossom in Kyoto as Miss Sakura first requested, then Saiwei must find that flower no matter how unhappy it is. Cherry Blossom, use it to complete the making of the pottery plate, otherwise the pursuit will fail.

However, now, since the cat paw print replaces the cherry blossom print, whether Sai Wei can find the earliest blooming cherry blossom has no effect on the production of the meow claw pottery plate. Xia Chuanqingquan made a pottery plate, and the cat played by Qi Xiao put paw prints on it, even if they passed the level.

Although I am a little sorry for Xiachuan Qingquan's infatuation, Sai Wei does not intend to suffer this for him.After all, Xiachuan Qingquan was able to make up his mind to build a small wooden house and wait for the flowers to bloom on Yuejian Mountain because of love, and Saiwei has no love for cherry blossoms.

Qi Xiao stared at Sai Wei for a long time, making sure that he was not joking.

Qi Xiao was a little surprised.

Sai Wei’s method sounds a bit risky, and it is suspected of being opportunistic. After all, this is equivalent to a gamble. If the gamble goes wrong and the antique as the "spectator" is not satisfied, then this pursuit can only end in failure.

However, what surprised Qi Xiao was not the speculative nature of this method itself, but that Sai Wei had the courage to use this method.

Generally speaking, most hunters who have just entered the industry are conscientious and cautious. They are afraid that if they make a small mistake in the process of hunting, they will lose everything in the end. They absolutely dare not do any opportunistic things.

Only veteran hunters who have experienced many battles have handled too many antiques and experienced too many different hunting environments. They clearly know what is within the tolerance range of antiques and what is not, so they have absolute confidence. The self-confidence that can guarantee that one's opportunism will not bring ultimate failure.

As a world-renowned expert in hunting antiques, Qi Xiao knows that this method is understandable, and he has even used it many times in the previous hunting process, but it is really surprising that Saiwei also knows such a sophisticated method.

Originally according to Qi Xiao's plan, since curator Derrick asked Sai Wei to follow him to observe and learn, it is best to slow down the pace of the hunt this time, and take it step by step, but who knows that Sai Wei asked to leave on his own shortcut……

Qi Xiao hooked the corners of his mouth. He wanted to laugh at first, but because of his cat face, he smiled nondescriptly. In the end, he could only see his cat whiskers trembling up and down——

I probably underestimated Saiwei's strength too much before.

But in this way, things are much simpler. Sai Wei just needs to find a teacher to learn how to make pottery plates before the cherry blossom season, and then Qi Xiao will make a paw print on it and the job will be over.

One person and one cat tossed until now, it was dark outside, Saiwei stretched his waist, and from the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of the kitten curled up, opened its mouth and yawned a little, suddenly moved, and hugged it into the into his arms.

"mum?"

"Your paw is dirty." Sewi pointed to the cat's right front paw. The ink dipped on it had dried up, dyeing the originally fluffy gray fur black, sticking strands together, which was extremely ugly.

He carried Qi Xiao to the pool, "I'll wash it for you."

Qi Xiao blinked, but it was just washing his paws, and it was not too difficult, just put the paws in the water and they would be clean, why should Saiwei wash them for him?

But since Sai Wei is so attentive, Qi Xiao also happens to be a little sleepy, so... let him do as he pleases.

Qi Xiao opened his mouth and yawned again, let Sai Wei sit by the pool, put him on his knees, scooped a ladle of water from the pool, and washed his paws gently and carefully, even under the nails .

After washing, the water in the ladle was stained black, and the black paws returned to their original color.

Sai Wei poured out the dirty water, twisted a hot towel and wiped Qi Xiao from head to toe, You Qi didn't let go of his remaining three paws.

The kitty has run on the ground before and has to wipe its paws clean before going to bed, doesn't it?

After finally wiping Qi Xiao clean, Sai Wei's hands were sore, but he still had to change a dry towel and give Qi Xiao another wipe.

There is no hair dryer in this era, so this troublesome method can only be used.
