[Comprehensive] No. 8 Pawnshop.

Most of the people who came to see the art exhibition were celebrities, people who were either rich or expensive, and many of them were people that Jiang Xuxu could only see in newspapers and TV. On the contrary, she felt that the cheap dress she was wearing was incompatible with the elegant and luxurious atmosphere here stand up.

However, no one seemed to notice her new face, and while she was relieved, she began to look at each work seriously.

When she saw a work of "Sea of ​​Tranquility", the beautiful picture of the sea of ​​mind that was depicted in it made Jiang Xuxu's eyes moisten involuntarily. Whenever she can draw such a brush, she can also hold her own art exhibition.

Suddenly a deep and magnetic male voice sounded beside him, "Can you also draw?"

Jiang Xuxu turned his head and looked over. He was a man in his early thirties with a red tie and a white shirt. He was tall and straight, with profound features.

She pursed her lips and nodded slightly, "I have been studying oil painting for seven years."

The man smiled slightly, "Let me introduce myself first, my name is Jiang Ke, I am a painter's agent, can you tell me what you like about this work?"

Jiang Xuxu's pupils shrank slightly, and the heart in her chest couldn't help shaking violently. She knew the name Jiang Ke.

He grew up abroad and worked as a painter's agent after graduation. His dream is to become the second great painting dealer after Vollard. In just a few years, he has made three young oil painters popular, and let them He has become a well-known new-generation painter overseas, and he himself has become famous, becoming one of the best painter brokers in the industry.

I didn't expect him to return to China now and appear here.

She felt that she might have encountered a golden opportunity.

Jiang Xuxu tried to calm himself down, forgetting the identity of the person in front of him, and turned to look at the painting on the wall, expressing his truest thoughts.

She didn't know whether she spoke for a few minutes or half an hour, she was even a little incoherent, but when she finished speaking, she heard the words of her dream, "I want to see your paintings."

Jiang Ke left her a business card and asked her to send the painting to his residence, and he would contact her after seeing it.

----

Jiang Ke didn't talk to her for long, and left. He still wanted to see if there were any more potential talents who had been buried. Jiang Xuxu was just one of the widely cast nets, but Jiang Xuxu didn't know.

This is the nature of painting dealers. They prefer small and unknown painters, and regard them as "potential stocks" to build momentum for them, hype their paintings strongly, and expand their fame while making them popular.

Jiang Xuxu looked at the business card in his hand, feeling so excited that he couldn't calm down for a long time. She, is this finally about to succeed?

"Are you happy?" Ye Li appeared behind her, smiling.

Jiang Xuxu turned around and looked at the strange woman in surprise, but she heard her smile and said, "This exhibition ticket really helped you, didn't it?"

Jiang Xuxu was startled at first, but then a little ashamed. It turned out that this young lady was the owner, and she came in with someone else's ticket. Jiang Xuxu still felt a little guilty.

Ye Li smiled slightly, "You don't need to feel sorry, I gave you that ticket in the first place."

Her voice was charming and gentle, her eyes deepened slightly,

"I appreciate talented people and I want to help them."

Hearing these words, Jiang Xuxu couldn't help being a little moved, "Thank you." Jiang Xuxu said sincerely, without this admission ticket, she would not have encountered such a good opportunity.

Ye Li's smile deepened, and he said, "I also want to see your paintings, can you take me there now?"

Jiang Xuxu froze for a moment, but soon smiled, "Okay."

The art exhibition was coming to an end, and Jiang Xuxu had already gained the most, so he walked out of the art gallery with Ye Li.

"By the way, my name is Jiang Xuxu, and I haven't asked you what to call me yet."

Ye Li smiled kindly at her, "My surname is Ye, you can just call me Miss Ye."

"Okay, Miss Ye."

----

Ye Li came by car, so he invited Jiang Xuxu to take her car home so that he could go and see Jiang Xuxu's paintings.

Sitting in a luxurious and comfortable luxury car, Jiang Xuxu felt a little restrained, and remembered what An Jia said, it was true, those who can afford the tickets to the Monet exhibition must be rich people, but, although Ms Ye is rich, , but it is very good to get along with, and more importantly, Ms. Ye said that she admires her talent very much.

The place where Jiang Xuxu and An Jia lived was not big and remote. She took Ye Li into the house with some embarrassment. The space inside was not big, and almost half of the space was occupied by Jiang Xuxu's paintings and painting utensils.

When introducing her own paintings, Jiang Xuxu seemed to be a different person. She lost her aloofness and arrogance and was no longer restrained. She seemed to be shining all over her body, with fanatical conceit in her eyes. These appeared in a weak girl like her, It seems incongruous but very appropriate.

Ye Li suddenly asked, "Do you want to hold your own art exhibition?"

Jiang Xuxu smiled, "Of course I think, which painter would not want his paintings to be seen by others?"

But there are many talented and unknown painters in this world, who have been painting for a lifetime and no one cares about it. It's not that Jiang Xuxu doesn't understand reality, but if she doesn't paint, what else can she do? She doesn't know, so she can only continue to paint , waiting for the opportunity.

The corner of Ye Li's mouth curled up, "I'm doing a business."

Jiang Xuxu looked puzzled, "What business?"

"As I said, I appreciate talented people and I am willing to help them. You should also know that if no one appreciates your paintings, no one will buy your paintings until you are 80 years old. Maybe after you die, your paintings You will be enshrined on the altar, but do you want that? All fame and wealth, all worship has nothing to do with you."

Of course she didn't want to, Jiang Xuxu pursed her lips, her clenched palms and eyes revealed her anxiety and fear.

"Of course, you have met the opportunity now, Jiang Ke." Ye Li said the name, this person would never appear, and he would never meet Jiang Xuxu.Who made the move, Ye Li can think of it without guessing.

"Jiang Ke is indeed a person who can turn decay into magic, but whether you can be his choice is not certain."

"If you need anything, you can come to me at any time. I'll wait for you at No. [-] pawn shop." Ye Li handed Jiang Xuxu a black business card.

Pawn Shop No. [-]?Jiang Xuxu still took the business card in silence, she was not angry because of Ye Li's words, did she say something wrong?No, her paintings are worthless if no one appreciates them.

Ye Li gave her time to think, and walked to the pictures randomly placed on the ground, by the table, and on the window sill. They were indeed beautiful, revealing a kind of unwillingness and fanatical beauty.

"Can I buy one of your paintings?" Ye Liwen asked with a smile,

Jiang Xuxu's pale face was somewhat perplexed, and he said casually and somewhat self-deprecatingly, "Of course you can, but you can't buy it, just take whichever painting you like." It's better to be appreciated by someone than to throw it away as worthless waste good.

Ye Li shook his head, and caressed the frame of one of the paintings, a thin layer of dust had already fallen on it, "I never give anything to others for free, and I will never receive things from others for free, everything has its own value." The price, one thing for one thing, couldn’t be more reasonable.”

"That's up to you."

Jiang Xuxu didn't even pay attention to how much money Ye Li left and when he left.

She just thought in her heart, can Jiang Ke give her what she wants?

The shocking words on the No. [-] pawnshop business card made her wonder whether she should rely on others or herself.

As soon as An Jia entered the door, she couldn't help chirping, "Xuxu, the boss praised me for a good job today, and asked me to bring back two cakes from the store. They are delicious."

After talking so much, An Jia didn't hear Jiang Xuxu's voice to respond, no, at least she would be happy for a while, but An Jia saw that Jiang Xuxu was sitting alone among the drawing paper scattered on the ground, looking melancholy and lonely.

"What's the matter, Xuxu?" An Jia put down her bag and cake, walked quickly to Jiang Xuxu's side, and asked worriedly.

She quickly found a wad of money on the side of the table, "Xuxu, how come there is so much money?" An Jia roughly counted, it was almost ten thousand, and the two of them could not save it for a year without eating or drinking. so much.

Jiang Xuxu was still a little careless, "Someone bought one of my paintings."

Hearing this, An Jia acted happier than Jiang Xuxu, "I knew that Xuxu would succeed, Xuxu, you are too good, a painting can sell so much money..."

Jiang Xuxu suddenly grabbed her hand, stared at her, and said with a little nervousness that she didn't realize, "An Jia, do you think I will really succeed?"

An Jia was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a big smile, "Of course, Xuxu, you are so talented and willing to work hard. You are a natural painter."

"You are a born painter" made Jiang Xuxu's dry heart seem to come alive again.

An Jia was not surprised by Jiang Xuxu's performance today, she was used to Jiang Xuxu's occasional confusion and loss, and she was also used to sincerely encouraging her to cheer up and believe in herself every time.

An Jia hugged Jiang Xuxu tightly, and said firmly, "As long as we work hard, we will succeed."

What she didn't realize was that there was something different in Jiang Xuxu's eyes than usual.

----

Jiang Xuxu deliberately picked out several paintings of his own with different styles and sent them to the place written on the business card, a well-known and high-end gallery.

Jiang Ke took a few packages from the doorman, and when he was about to unpack them when he returned to his room, he was interrupted by a phone call. After answering the call, he put on his coat and went out, ignoring it. An unopened painting in a corner.

In the 'Dawn' bar, Ye Li directed Aji to hang the oil painting bought from Jiang Xuxu on the wall of the hall. Aji paid attention to the signature, "Jiang Xuxu", a trace of doubt flashed in his mind, and he didn't listen. But which famous painter's name is this?

Aji didn't ask directly, but just obeyed the boss's decision.

And Ye Li looked at this beautiful oil painting, hugged his elbows and smiled, "This painting will be very valuable soon."

It will also work as it should.
