Coming out of the back door was a plain-looking man, about forty or fifty years old.

To be honest, Shan Miao's image is not outstanding at all, but gives people a feeling of being out of the crowd.

Su Nian laughed and whispered, "It's worthy of doing this, this disguise is really powerful." ”

Lao Wu also nodded, agreeing very much.

Shan Miao walked out from behind, with a thin bodyguard behind him, Su Nian knew at a glance that this person had practiced the same as the person who dealt with him before.

Smiling at the surroundings, Shan Miao's gaze swept around, and suddenly paused on Su Nian's face for half a second.

Su Nian smiled slightly and nodded at Shan Miao.

As if he hadn't seen anything, Shan Miao continued to finish the lap and walked to the middle.

"I think everyone has heard that today, I want to sell a work of Master Yanshan, and it is a sealing knife work!"

As soon as these words came out, the people around them suddenly whispered.

There are not many people on the scene who know the inside story, and everyone only knows that what is going to be sold today is the work of Master Yanshan, but they don't know that it is a work of sealing the knife.

Master Yanshan also stood up at this time, arched his hand to everyone and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, those who do our job always have to give way when they reach a certain age. ”

"Today is the five-year Lancheng handicraft exchange meeting, I Yanshan is cheeky, temporarily borrowed the venue for a while, and hereby announces that the knife is sealed today!"

The masters were in an uproar.

"What? Master Yanshan really announced that the sword was sealed?"

"That's a sealed knife! There will be no inkstone from now on!"

"Alas...... Maybe that's a good thing...... "This is an older person."

Su Nian looked at these people around him in wonder, listening to their heated discussions, and still didn't react.

Lao Wu explained in a low voice: "The so-called announcement of the sealing of the knife is not such a simple thing. ”

"This kind of thing has been done since ancient times, but in ancient times, more attention was paid to rituals, so it was very Taoist, and it has rarely appeared in modern times. ”

"On the one hand, because the information is now transmitted quickly, there is no need to hold a separate ceremony, and on the other hand, because the sealing knife represents a great significance. ”

"Sealing the knife, it doesn't just mean that I won't carve like this from today. ”

"Actually, many people have already sealed their knives, but most people just acquiesce. After all, in this world, who hasn't been in a hurry?"

"Just like Master Yanshan this time, because of the lack of money, people who are recognized in the industry as no longer selling their works will make some money again, which can be understood and recognized by everyone. ”

But once the knife is publicly announced, it means that even if his works are signed in the future, they will not be recognized by the entire industry. ”

In other words, from today onwards, whether Mr. Yanshan carves by hand or not, his future works will have no value. ”

Since then, the name Yanshan has become a thing of the past in the world of sculpture. ”

"Yanshan is a person who only has educational significance. Maybe you can be regarded as a senior master, maybe you can teach your disciples, or even publish a book. ”

"But handicrafts are hands-on work after all, and a craftsman who can't hold a knife ......"

Only then did Su Nian know how important Mr. Yanshan's announcement was this time, no wonder the masters around him were shocked.

It seems that this blow has completely made Mr. Yanshan want to quit this business.

He couldn't help but glance at Shan Miao, wondering what kind of expression would be the initiator of all this at this moment?

Is it complacency, or is it pretending that nothing has happened, or is it contempt and ridicule, trampling these people in the dust in your heart?

But when his gaze turned to Shan Miao, he was stunned for a moment.

Because Shan Miao didn't care about everything that happened in the field, let alone what the people around him said.

He was looking at Su Nian, standing in the crowd, and it looked very abrupt in Su Nian's eyes.

Everyone is looking at Yanshan, and you are alone looking in the other direction, which is really conspicuous.

Shan Miao and Su Nian met their eyes in the crowd, and Su Nian could see the obvious message in his eyes.

Are you Su Nian?

Su Nian smiled, I am Su Nian.

Shan Miao nodded slightly, his smile did not decrease, he turned his gaze to the other side, and said:

"Mr. Yanshan sealed the knife on this, it is really the carving world, no, it is a big loss for our handicraft industry. However, considering that Mr. Yanshan is old and in good health, he should not continue to work. I also hope that the masters will be considerate and able to understand. ”

"Understand, of course understand. A master said down the slope.

Everyone else expressed their concern about Master Yanshan's health and expressed their blessings for Yanshan's retirement.

Yanshan smiled and thanked him, but Su Nian could see the helplessness and sadness in his eyes.

I can't bear to leave the industry I love, and it's an industry that I have paid my life to and got a top reputation, and it must be false to say that I am not sad.

However, Yanshan covered it up well and did not show it.

After everyone had blessed him, Shan Miao asked the bodyguard behind him to bring out a large box, which was about 50 centimeters long and 40 centimeters wide.

The box was placed on a white tablecloth, and after opening it, Shan Miao personally took out a jade landscape from inside.

Su Nian didn't know much about the varieties and prices of jade, but he could also see that the material of this jade was not bad.

The shades of white and pale green are verdant. The colors are clean, nothing else variegated and very pure.

It's not the top-of-the-line material, but it's big in size.

This ornament is embedded in the sponge of the box, and the top, bottom, left and right almost top the edge of the box.

Below the ornaments, a solid wood base has been installed, and above it is three mountains stacked, green pines and cypresses on the mountain, and a small bridge and flowing water bamboo row under the mountain.

The design of the whole ornament can be said to be very simple, but it is this simplicity that gives full play to the characteristics and advantages of the jade itself.

Just glanced at it from a distance, and Su Nian could feel the skill of this ornament in carving.

The image of the three mountains, the flowers and trees on the mountain, the flowing water and the fishermen at the foot of the mountain, these are all lifelike, like a two-color photograph.

Lao Wu is even more of a master, and he couldn't help but praise: "Beautiful!"

Su Xiao's eyes widened, although she could see what was good, but she knew that it was good.

Shan Miao waited until everyone admired it for a moment, and finally spoke: "Many of you are here for this thing today, let's make an offer!"

"Thirty million!" said one of them.

"Thirty-three million!"

"Thirty-five million!"

The wealthy businessmen, who were humble and polite just now, immediately became fanatical, and the price soared all the way to 40 million.

Shan Miao listened to everyone's offers, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and only then did he show a little pride.

Yes, smug.

And not happy.

The price of tens of millions of dollars can bring the greatest significance to Shan Miao, but the success of this torrential fraud.

"Tsk!" Su Nian couldn't help but stumble.

Lao Wu said with a smile: "Do you think that people who are just for money can achieve the level that Shan Miao is now? Fraud is fraud after all, but Shan Miao is Shan Miao." ”

Su Nian nodded, it seems that Shan Miao is not only for defrauding people of money, but also for a great morbid pleasure.

The price soared to 47 million, and then the growth slowed down, and it began to rise by millions, millions, millions.

Shan Miao was satisfied, but there was no happiness on the face of Mr. Yanshan next to him.

Originally, it was already miserable enough to sell the work of sealing the mountain, or to repay the debt.

After paying off the debt, the rest of the money can't reach his own hands, how tragic is this?

It's just miserable!

Su Nian's heart also had some emotion, and he had a deeper understanding of the unpredictability of life.

It didn't take long for the price to stabilize at 49 million, and the ornament went to a wealthy man.

The money and goods were not traded on the spot, and it is estimated that Shan Miao will have to deliver it to the other party after a while, and such a big treasure cannot be just put in the car and brought back.

It all had to wait until after the meeting, and now, it was the final part of the meeting.

The final link, of course, is to exchange some experiences and gains from today's exchange meeting, so that the masters and disciples can confirm each other's gains.

Commonly known as nagging.

However, it was not only these masters who were present today, but also a number of top figures in the upper echelons of Lancheng.

Su Nian looked at these people present, he didn't know any of them, and most of these people were giants of Lancheng business, and Su Nian needed to look up to them now.

When he was looking, Su Nian saw a figure walking towards him.

The skinny bodyguard walked up to Su Nian and said in a deep voice, "Su Nian, right? ”

Su Xiao tugged on Su Nian's sleeve, Su Nian shook his head, reassured her, and followed the bodyguard to the corner of the venue.

There are definitely not a few rich people in the venue who know Shan Miao, and of course no one will come over to disturb Shan Miao's work without interest.

In fact, they are still discussing Mr. Yanshan's misery in private, and they don't know that they have been deceived.

Su Nian stood in front of Shan Miao like this, looked at this ordinary-looking guy, and asked, "You are Shan Miao?"

Shan Miao smiled: "You are bold." ”

"Otherwise?" Su Nian asked, "Can you do 414 again for me?"

Shan Miao glanced at him and did not answer, but said cryptically: "When I first started, just like you, I didn't have anything to worry about, so I can do anything without scruples, but this is not a good thing." ”

"How much did I pay for the things I did when I was younger? ”

Su Nian listened to his words and suddenly asked, "Then have you ever thought about it, maybe the price you paid is not enough to repay?"

Shan Miao said: "I'm not here to play with you, since you want to fight with me, then I will fight with you, and according to your rules." ”

Su Nian shook his head: "You are wrong, not according to my rules, but according to the rules of the market." Wait, I'll have a big gift for you in a few days!"

"Oh, yes? I'm looking forward to it. ”
