Chapter 086: The Chengguan is here
Wu Chengfeng turned his head, and he saw a man in his forties standing in front of him, his eyes fixed on the painting on the ground.
"Yes!" Wu Chengfeng hurriedly replied.
"Did you draw it?" asked the Sven man again.
"Hmm!" Wu Chengfeng nodded.
"How much does it cost?" asked the Sven man.
"This ...... Twenty yuan ......," Wu Chengfeng replied cautiously.
When Wu Chengfeng painted, every stroke was very serious, and it would take more than an hour to paint a painting, plus the cost of ink and paint, it was not cost-effective to sell it for twenty yuan. However, Wu Chengfeng is only selling tentatively now, so the price is not high.
"Twenty dollars is not expensive, I want this kingfisher picture!" said the Sven man.
"Okay!" Wu Chengfeng excitedly picked up the kingfisher picture and handed it to the Sven man.
After paying the money, the Sven man said to Wu Chengfeng: "Little brother, let me give you a few suggestions......
Wu Chengfeng was stunned for a moment and said, "If you have any opinions, you can ...... them."
"That's right," said the Sven man...... "You are drawing well, and you can see that your basic skills are very solid." However, when you make the payment, you don't have your own stamp, which is like eating without vegetables, missing a little wonderful thing. Also, the paintings you draw are all on rice paper, which is inconvenient to hold, so you can only hang them at home. You can try painting with a blank fan, so it's easy to carry......"
After Wu Chengfeng listened to Sven Man's words, he was like an enlightenment, and his eyes widened and said, "Thank you big brother for reminding me!"
After the Sven man left, Wu Chengfeng and Yu Qiuxiang stayed until half past four, and did not sell a single painting, Wu Chengfeng still had to go to work at five o'clock, so they made an appointment to come back tomorrow to continue selling paintings.
When Wu Chengfeng was at work, he seriously considered Sven's suggestion and felt that what he said was very reasonable. The next day, before Wu Chengfeng went to work, Wu Chengfeng found a shop that carved seals, and he asked people to engrave two seals. One seal is engraved with "Wu Fengmu", and the other is engraved with "Beauty of Adults". Wu Chengfeng's two seals have an intrinsic meaning, and he deliberately concealed his real name and replaced it with "Wu Fengmu". Wind and wood together are Wu Chengfeng's maple characters. As for the "beauty of adults", it doesn't seem to make much sense, in fact, there is a "Cheng" word of Wu Chengfeng embedded in it. Two seals plus a box of ink clay are a total of thirty yuan, and after Wu Chengfeng paid the money and came out of the seal carving shop, he found the stationery store again and asked if there was a blank fan. As a result, Wu Chengfeng searched several stationery stores, but did not find a blank fan, and just when Wu Chengfeng was disappointed, a stationery store staff told Wu Chengfeng that he could order this blank fan from the Internet. Wu Chengfeng was overjoyed, after he returned to the store, he immediately searched on the Internet, and sure enough, he found that there were a large number of blank fans for sale on the Internet, a blank fan was about five yuan, and Wu Chengfeng bought twenty first.
When it was time for the lunch break, Yu Qiuxiang really came to find Wu Chengfeng again, and the two of them came to the place where the stall was set up yesterday. After Wu Chengfeng put the painting in place, he told Yu Qiuxiang about ordering a blank fan from the Internet, and Yu Qiuxiang expressed his support for Wu Chengfeng.
After Wu Chengfeng set up a stall today, from two o'clock to four o'clock, let alone sell and paint, there was not even a person who asked the price, and Wu Chengfeng began to be lost. Seeing this, Yu Qiuxiang comforted Wu Chengfeng and said: "Xiao Feng, don't be discouraged! After the seal is engraved, you can draw a few more fans, and I believe that someone will definitely have a discerning eye for pearls!"
"Qiu Xiang, thank you!" Wu Chengfeng thanked from the bottom of his heart.
Two days later, Wu Chengfeng finally received his blank fan. So, after Wu Chengfeng carefully drew some paintings on the fan, he stamped the seal. Then, on the weekend, Wu Chengfeng and Yu Qiuxiang came to the commercial street to peddle again. This time, the effect was remarkable, and by four o'clock, Wu Chengfeng had sold seven fans. Wu Chengfeng's fans are priced at 20 yuan, and after deducting the cost, how can a fan earn about 10 yuan.
Wu Chengfeng carried the banknotes he had just sold, and said excitedly: "Qiu Xiang, you are here tomorrow, let's not rush to sell paintings, I will invite you to KFC for a meal first!"
"Okay!" Yu Qiuxiang agreed with a smile.
The next day, Wu Chengfeng really didn't break his promise, he first took Yu Qiuxiang to eat a few pieces of chicken thighs at KFC, and then went to the commercial street to sell fans. After gaining experience, Wu Chengfeng and Yu Qiuxiang also let go a lot, and when no one was around, they dared to shout a few times to attract customers.
"The chengguan is here!"
I don't know who shouted, but the pancakes, socks, and fruit stalls on the street were scattered, and they were scattered with their things, some of them were riding and running, and those without cars were running with their burdens. At one end of the commercial street, a pickup truck of the urban management brigade drove in the distance.
"Xiao Feng, run!" Yu Qiuxiang shouted.
Wu Chengfeng woke up like a dream, he hurriedly packed the bed sheet, grabbed it and ran. Wu Chengfeng ran in front, and Yu Qiuxiang followed closely behind.
"Oops!"
Wu Chengfeng heard Yu Qiuxiang screaming from behind, he slowed down, and turned around to see Yu Qiuxiang falling to the ground with a painful expression on his face. When Wu Chengfeng saw this, he hurriedly stopped.
"Xiao Feng, leave me alone! Run!" Yu Qiuxiang shouted anxiously.
Wu Chengfeng saw the approaching chengguan pickup, he hesitated for a moment, and resolutely walked towards Yu Qiuxiang.
"I'm fine! You can go quickly!" Yu Qiuxiang said.
"No! I can't leave you alone!" Wu Chengfeng said, squatting in front of Qiu Xiang, and asked with concern, "Do you want to care?"
Yu Qiuxiang saw the chengguan car parked in front of her, she sighed and said, "I just twisted my foot, and now I can't run away, what should I do?"
Wu Chengfeng hadn't answered Yu Qiuxiang's question yet, but saw three people wearing city control uniforms coming down from the chengguan pickup, they were two men and one woman, and the woman was still holding a law enforcement recorder in her hand.
The three chengguan walked up to Wu Chengfeng and Yu Qiuxiang, and one of the chengguan glanced at Wu Chengfeng and Yu Qiuxiang, and said majestically: "What's in the bag?"
"This ......" Wu Chengfeng was a little flustered in his heart, he didn't know how to answer.
"Show it to me!" the chengguan said, snatching the sheet from Wu Chengfeng's hand. After opening the sheets and seeing the fan inside, the chengguan said, "Don't you know that you can't operate without a license on this street?"
Wu Chengfeng lowered his head and said, "I was wrong! I won't dare next time!"
The chengguan took the sheet in his hand and said, "The fan will be confiscated! There will be no punishment this time! There will be a next time, and you will have to be fined!"
"Got it!" Wu Chengfeng replied in a low voice.
