While Huang Lei was secretly judging in his heart, he also pulled out the masters he knew and compared them.

There are some who can compare with Xia Jie in terms of skills, but on the whole, I am afraid that there are only a handful of people who can completely surpass Xia Jie.

The more Huang Lei thought about it, he felt that Xia Jie was not simple, you must know that the other party is only in his early twenties, and he has the skills of those years of Jiazi masters.

In the future, what kind of realm can be reached in the road of Chinese painting, not to say that there is no one to come, at least it is unprecedented.

After Xia Jie saw that Huang Lei finished speaking, he was stunned by the side, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand and shake it in front of him.

"Teacher Huang, Teacher Huang, what's wrong with you?"

Huang Lei came back to his senses and said sincerely: "Mr. Xia, your painting is so good, I don't know if you can sell me a piece when you go back, I will collect it as an heirloom." ”

Xia Jie chuckled.

"Hey, Mr. Huang, the heirloom or something is serious, I'm just a hobby, if you like it, just go back and paint one for you, the price is easy to say." ”

Huang Lei was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile on his face: "Thank you so much, Mr. Xia, by the way, I almost forgot, there is actually one more thing I want to ask you for help today!"

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"Didn't you eat the pepper oil you made before, it tasted really good, so I wanted to buy some from you, and we can use it when we cook in the mushroom house." ”

"Sichuan pepper oil?"

Xia Jie thought about it, the pepper oil he made before was actually not too much, it was only enough for himself to eat, and if he wanted to sell it, he was afraid it would not be enough.

However, he was not in a hurry to refuse, but just asked Huang Lei to go back and wait for news.

Because of Huang Lei's request, he suddenly thought of a good idea, rode a small electric donkey, and ran to the village committee.

traveled all the way, and after a while, Xia Jie rushed to the village committee.

When I walked in, the old village chief was smoking a cigarette and chatting happily with Liu Youcai.

Seeing Xia Jie coming, a warm smile suddenly appeared on the faces of the two.

"Yo, Xiaojie is here, come in and sit. ”

Xia Jie was not polite, and went in and sat next to the two of them with a bench.

"The old village chief, a talented uncle, it's also a coincidence, I didn't expect you both to be here, I happened to have something to do with you two. ”

Liu Youcai stroked his mustache and asked in a little surprise, "Xiaojie, what are you looking for me and the old village chief?"

The old village chief also subconsciously looked over: "Yes, Xiaojie, you can just say something." ”

Xia Jie raised a finger and clicked a few times in the air.

"That's right, today Mr. Huang Lei from the program group came to me, saying that he wanted to buy some pepper oil from me. ”

"Actually, it's not just them, when I made pepper oil live before, many netizens said they wanted to buy it from me, but the little I made was only enough for me to eat, so how could I sell it extraordinarily. ”

As he spoke, Xia Jie turned his gaze to Liu Youcai.

"In addition, didn't Uncle Cai say before that the pepper doesn't sell well, I'm thinking, should the talented uncle come to a transformation and upgrading, secondary processing, since the pepper doesn't sell well, then let's sell the pepper oil. ”

The old village chief patted his thigh when he heard this, nodded again and again.

"Youcai, didn't you come to me today to sell peppercorns, and I, an old man, can't think of a way, but Xiaojie is different, he is a college student, he thinks more than us, and is more thorough than us, or try it according to what Xiaojie said?"

Liu Youcai lowered his head, touched his mustache, and said with some hesitation.

"The old village chief, Xiaojie, I haven't thought about this method, but I make my own pepper oil, which is not too delicious, and it is not as good as those big enterprises and big brands, and I am afraid that no one will buy it when I pull it out." ”

After hearing this, Xia Jie smiled and said: "Uncle Cai, the most important thing in boiling pepper oil is actually the quality of peppercorns!"

"The quality of the peppercorns grown in our village is very good, as for boiling oil, I have a method, you do it according to this method, the pepper oil that comes out of this way is full of praise even for a big star like Mr. Huang who is used to eating food, and it should be no problem to pull it out and sell it." ”

Liu Youcai heard Xia Jie mention Huang Lei, and his eyes lit up.

But after thinking about it, Liu Youcai still shook his head and refused.

"Xiaojie, I don't think it's still possible. ”

Xia Jie saw that Liu Youcai still didn't agree, and thought that he had any concerns, so he couldn't help asking.

"Uncle Youcai, what else do you have to worry about, it's okay to say it directly. ”

When the old village chief saw Liu Youcai's unsuccessful appearance, he was so anxious that he slapped the table again and again.

"Youcai, Xiaojie said this, who do you think this is for? Is it for his own good!"

Liu Changgen blew his beard and said with a glare.

Seeing the old village chief's appearance, Liu Youcai also shrank his head, and said with a little scruples: "Old village chief, I know that Xiaojie is for my good, so I said this." ”

"When I used to work outside, those restaurant owners would make money by pointing to their own exclusive secret recipes, so it was very valuable, so I couldn't ask for it for nothing. ”

Xia Jie listened and smiled slightly, it turned out that he was worried about this, Uncle Youcai is a sincere person.

"Hey, Uncle Youcai, we are all folks in the same village, you also took care of me when I was a child, so you don't have to be so polite, besides, this method is not a secret recipe, don't think too much. ”

Liu Youcai still shook his head.

"No, Xiaojie, then it's not like this, I heard a saying in the city, what is called technology shares, that is, two people partner, one person pays money, and the other person pays technology. ”

"Then if you want to engage in pepper oil, Xiaojie, even if you have a technical share, let's make a five-fifty profit, this is my condition, if you don't agree, then forget it, I'll sell my peppercorns." ”

For Liu Youcai's stubbornness, Xia Jie was also quite helpless, so he had to agree.

"That's it, even if I have a technical share, but Uncle Cai, since we are partners, then I will invest another 300,000 yuan to hire someone to do packaging or something." ”

Liu Youcai still refused.

"Xiaojie, no, uncle has worked for so many years, and he has saved hundreds of thousands, rich, rich, all of them don't need you to invest money, otherwise you will suffer so much, uncle and I will not feel at ease." ”

Seeing that Liu Youcai refused to give in, Xia Jie spread his hands and put forward a compromise proposal.

"Then why don't you do it, Uncle Youcai, I will provide the method, you will provide the raw materials, and then we will invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in it, so that the scale of the beginning can be larger, and you can also take over all the peppercorns grown in the village, okay?"

Liu Youcai listened carefully to Xia Jie's proposal, his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands.

"It's a good idea, Xiaojie, you don't have to suffer, so be it, but I heard that you still need any documents to sell this seasoning like pepper oil, and I won't do this." ”

Xia Jie waved his hand.

"Leave this to me, I have friends in the city, just go back and ask them to help handle it, and then go back and recruit a salesman, so it's basically the same." ”

Liu Youcai was born in the countryside, he is simple by nature, if he does business, this is not good, someone must help Zhang Luo to become a businessman.

Xia Jie naturally wouldn't get involved, so he was going to recruit a helper to help Liu Youcai.

The old village chief looked at the hot Xia Jie and Liu Youcai who were chatting, and he was also relieved in his heart, the young people's affairs should be left to the young people to deal with, and his own old bones can't help.

But Xiaojie's idea is good, if it is really sold, it can drive everyone to get rich.

Thinking like this, the old village chief cocked Erlang's legs and lit another Hongta Mountain.

Suddenly, there was green smoke.

......

Far away in Italy, in the historic ancient city of Turin, in a basement.

Palanić was staring at a boxy piece of wood, and the room was silent.

Only the "tick-tock" sound of the wall clock on the wall.

Paranici sat motionless, like a sculpture, and time passed slowly, and I don't know how long it had been.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the doorknob of the basement.

A tall beauty with long wavy hair walked in, and it was Palanici's sister: Siv.

After entering, Sif smelled a strange smell in the room, and her three-dimensional features were wrinkled together, and she couldn't help but ask, "Paranich, how long are you going to sit like this?"

But the latter seemed to be stunned, and did not respond in the slightest.

Looking at her unkempt and emaciated brother, Seve couldn't help but think back to a year ago.

At that time, Paranici was a handsome and cheerful young man, a member of the Academy of Fine Arts in Turin, the best art university in the world, and a talented engraver.

He was once hailed by the media as the young sculptor most likely to be close to Leonardo da Vinci and was the pride of their family.

However, all this pride came to an abrupt end a year ago, and the symbol of rest was drawn.

Just because at the graduate design meeting a year ago, her brother handed over a cyberpunk-style sculpture, but was criticized by his mentor for being worthless.

As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the worse you fall, and the outside media also follow suit, constantly belittling her younger brother, saying that he is already Jiang Lang's talent, and that his talent is all inflated.

In this way, under the sound of various criticisms, Paranici began to doubt himself, and all kinds of wild inspirations in the past disappeared completely, and finally became sluggish.

At the time, the Milan Times devoted an entire page to the event, under the headline: The Fall of the Genius Engraver

The younger brother looks like this, which makes Seve very sad.

She put her satchel on the hanger, walked to the couch, took off her high heels, took off her light black stockings, revealing her white and slender legs, then changed into slippers and began to tidy up the room for her brother.

Seve opened the side window of the basement first, and the light crept through the cracks, and the cacti on the display were already withered.

The room was full of gray, and no matter how hard Seve scrubbed it, she couldn't wash it clean.

After a long time, she realized that this gray was not the accumulation of dust, but painted by Paranic himself, and this gray was the color of the room and a portrayal of Paranic's state of mind.

Like a lonely boat in the sea, as far as the eye can see, there is sea water all around, and there is no trace of land or hope.

Sif's eyes were a little red, and she didn't know what she would have to do to save her brother from this helpless hell.

Pray to God?

If that helps, she'll be the most devout believer.

All kinds of chaotic thoughts were mixed together, and Sif slowly squatted on the ground against the wall, and sat quietly like this.

I don't know how long it took, but Paranic in sight was still motionless, and Sif spoke in some despair.

"Para, why don't we see a psychiatrist, I know a good psychiatrist, she'll definitely make you better. ”

Under the inquiry, all the words seemed to sink into the sea, and there was no response.

The atmosphere was depressed to an extreme, and Seve couldn't take it anymore.

She stood up suddenly, and made up her mind that she would drag Paranic to the psychiatrist, even if it was with a drag, and she could not tolerate her brother sinking like this again.

Sieve rolled up her sleeves, her slender hands already on Palanić's shoulders.

But Palanici remained like a piece of wood, and nothing happened.

"Go, Para, I'll take you to a psychiatrist. ”

As she spoke, Sif was about to drag Paranic off the bench when the cell phone in her pocket rang.

When I picked it up, it was her best friend Lily who called, and there was always endless boudoir talk between her and Lily.

But Seve is not in that mood now, and is ready to send her friend away in a few words.

"Hi Lily, I'm getting ready to take Para to the psychiatrist right now, I'm not available for a while, I'll get back to it if there's anything going on. ”

In the telephone receiver, Lily's voice was as crisp and moving as a oriole.

"No, no, no, dear Siv, don't hang up the phone just yet, I'm calling you for Palanić's business. ”

Seve was just about to hang up the phone, and when she heard this, her hand paused.

"What, Lily, is there a way you can help Parra?"

"Of course, dear Siv, I know you're preoccupied with Palanich's business, and I certainly won't call you if I can't do it. ”

The corners of Siff's mouth were slightly raised, as if the drowning man had caught a life-saving swimming ring, and hurriedly asked after being surprised.

"Really, Lily, tell me, what's the solution?"

"I sent a link to your work machine, you can click on it. ”

"Well, okay. ”

Seve found her workmachine from her satchel and opened it to see that it was actually the address of a YouTube pipe.

This is a video posted by a YouTuber named Xiaojie Yamamura.

"Isn't this a YouTube video? Is he a well-known psychiatrist? Why have I never heard of it?"

"Dear Siv, just open this video, I think the content of the video should help Paranich. ”

Seve was a little puzzled, the four words of Yamamura Xiaojie are also spelled in American English, which is very different from Italian.

This also shows that this mountain village Xiaojie is not in Italy now, and a person who is not in Italy can help her and Paranic with just a video?
