By the moat, at the entrance of the Liuyun community.

You Lexuan looked at Ding Shuo's back as he gradually moved away, as if he had suddenly lost something, and his heart was empty.

However, after a brief moment of disorientation, she quickly came to her senses, opened the car door to the onlookers' pointing and chattering, and slipped back into the car in disgrace.

Then the door slammed shut.

The middle-aged man sitting in the driver's seat glanced at the back row through the rearview mirror, saw You Lexuan returning to the car empty-handed, and asked with a puzzled face, "Why didn't you buy it?"

"Suddenly I don't want to eat again, let's drive. You Lexuan's face became very ugly.

"That scumbag just now is your ex-boyfriend, right?" the middle-aged man started the vehicle.

"Uncle Zhang, are you finished?" You Lexuan's face was blue, like a cloudy thunderstorm in May, gloomy and about to drip water.

The middle-aged man saw that You Lexuan seemed to be really angry, and closed his mouth very interestingly.

Although You Lexuan has only been in the company for a short time, he is a rare artistic genius, and he is also a celebrity around Mr. Liang, which is not something that he can offend as a small driver.

You Lexuan held her cheeks, looked out the window and stopped talking.

When I left Ding Shuo, I thought he was not enterprising and wanted to inspire him.

But who knows, the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high for the birds to fly.

After this departure, she realized how wonderful the outside world was, and she was like a white-bellied glass jumping on a branch, so dazzling.

As for Ding Shuo, he didn't reflect well because of his departure, he was still so content with the status quo and stealing peace.

In short, she doesn't see any hope in Ding Shuo.

"Alas......"

You Lexuan sighed softly.

It's been almost two years since I broke up with him, and the elites around me are better than the other, so why should I practice myself and never forget a waste?

......

After Ding Shuo left the community, he took a taxi to the small road where he crashed last night, trying to find a place to repair the motorcycle, so he rode it first, and then changed to a better one when he had more money in a few days.

But when he got there, he found that the motorcycle that had been thrown on the side of the road was gone, leaving only a pile of fragments of the motorcycle and two distorted license plates.

Eighty percent of them were sold for scrap by a "well-wisher".

Ding Shuo sighed, picked up his license plate, and asked the taxi driver to send him to the antique street in the south of the city.

Bypass Fountain Square, turn left into "Jiuxiang Alley", and stop in front of a gallery with the three big characters "Mu Yuxuan" written on the door plaque.

Two years ago, after he broke up with You Lexuan, he did fall for a long time.

In addition to drinking every day, I played games, and later I was introduced by a friend to go to an art examination training to teach, but it didn't take long for the training school to have an accident.

A female student committed suicide by jumping off a building after becoming pregnant, and the school was closed, although Ding Shuo had nothing to do with this incident and lost his job.

And then ......

It was probably at the end of last year, by chance, that Ding Shuo took over the gallery, and Salted Fish turned over and became the boss.

It is said that Mu Yuxuan is actually a small shop of less than 30 square meters.

Moreover, the oil paintings in the store, except for a few fine works that were commissioned to be temporarily consigned in the store, most of them were Ding Shuo's line paintings that were recovered at a low price.

What is Line Drawing?

To put it bluntly, it is an oil painting handicraft, which runs counter to the artistic essence of "self-release and resonates with others", catering to and pleasing the viewer from the bones, although it looks pleasing to the eye, but there is no soul copy.

Often the cost of a painting is not as expensive as a framed frame.

Of course, when he was inspired, Ding Shuo would also draw one or two of them and sell them in the store.

In addition to rent, water and electricity every month, there are still three or five thousand yuan left, and the small life is quite leisurely.

9:20 a.m.

Ding Shuo opened the roller shutter door with a "bang" and turned on the light.

Under the dim light, the style of the small shop was suddenly reflected.

The red brick walls around it are filled with oil paintings of various styles, as well as cogs, valves, steel pipes and chains......

The decoration style is to make people feel the quiet steampunk style in the restlessness.

Ding Shuo placed several oil paintings piled up at the door of the gallery and opened for business.

Taking advantage of the fact that there were few customers in the morning, he took out his mobile phone and opened the second-hand network of idle cats.

I thought in my heart, since the 1,000 yuan of the [Silence is Golden] reward has arrived, then [How much you spend] shouldn't be a lie, right?

He walked around the idle cat, and his eyes were anchored in a new 8-percent Hamaya Heavenly Sword in the same city, which only ran 18,000 kilometers, and could be transferred at any time, and the seller was in a hurry to use the money, and only needed 3,500 oceans.

Without saying a word, Ding Shuo took a picture of the motorcycle and got in touch with the owner.

The two made an appointment to meet at a nearby vehicle management office at half past 10, brought their ID cards or something, and transferred the house directly.

As soon as Ding Shuo finished making a phone call, an old man with a red nose wearing a gray Tang suit and holding a folding fan walked into the store.

It's a strange face.

"Welcome!"

"Well, I'll just take a look. ”

The red-nosed old man swept through the oil paintings, suddenly paused, pointed to one of the oil paintings with the folding fan in his hand and asked, "Young man, how much does this painting cost?"

Ding Shuo glanced at the oil painting and stretched out five fingers: "Five hundred." ”

That painting was one of several oil paintings he had exchanged for two cigarettes when he went out sketching last year, and because it had not been noticed for a long time, he hung it in an inconspicuous position.

The whole painting is only black, white and gray three colors, which are scraped out with an oil painting knife, although the painting skills are sloppy, but the technique is amazing, only those who really know how to paint will stop in front of it.

"Although the composition of this painting is a little worse, the mood is still good, and if this area is overused with dark gray, it will be more perfect......" commented the old man with the red nose.

"The old gentleman knows how to draw?"

"I know a little about ......"

"Since the old gentleman has a relationship with this painting, I will give you a cost price and take it for four hundred yuan. Ding Shuo held the black-rimmed glasses with the broken lens of his left glasses with his hand and narrowed his eyes.

The red-nosed old man nodded, stopped bargaining, and directly took out cash to buy the painting.

Before leaving, he left a business card for Ding Shuo, saying that if there will be works of this style in the future, remember to keep it for him, and he will ask for as many as he wants.

Sending away the red-nosed old man, Ding Shuo glanced at the business card left by the old man:

"Hu Yuanfeng, the founder of Yuanfeng Charity and the honorary director of Comfort Senior Apartment. 」

"It turned out to be a big philanthropist...... Ding Shuo thought for a moment, and at this moment, a pair of young men and women walked into the store.

The men looked to be in their thirties, and the women were slightly younger, twenty-five or sixteen.

The women are dressed in cool clothes and are dressed up in flowers.

The man is holding a leather bag, wearing a labor earth green water ghost on his wrist, and a bunch of keys pinned to his waist, and the car keys of the Land Rover are particularly eye-catching, and he is very rich at a glance.

Ding Shuo glanced up at the young man and woman, then lowered his head and opened a travel magazine casually.

Selling paintings, naturally, you can't be overly enthusiastic like the aunt who sells vegetables in the vegetable market.

If the customer does not ask for an introduction, be sure to turn a blind eye and give them enough space to enjoy the painting, which can show the style of the owner without boredoming the customer.

"Wow, the decoration style of this gallery is amazing!" The two walked around the room, and the woman held the man's arm, pointed to an oil painting, and asked excitedly, "Husband, husband, what do you think of this painting hanging in the western restaurant on the second floor?"

The man glanced at the painting, shook his head and pouted, "It's too cheesy." ”

"Is it vulgar? I feel fine, but what about the one next to it?" the woman asked another freehand oil painting, although the renovation cost more than two million, but she always felt that the painting hanging on the wall of the restaurant was a bit scary, not to mention dark, and incompatible with the whole decoration style.

It's rare that my husband has time to go out shopping with him today.

So she thought about replacing that painting no matter what.

The man moved his gaze to another oil painting, paused for two seconds, and then said with a disgusted expression: "I'll go, this is a child's graffiti, right? How can you draw it like it's a joke? Are you sure you want to hang this kind of garbage in my big villa of 50,000 square meters?"

"Oh husband, in order to capture the charm of things, this kind of freehand oil painting does not pursue the delicate ...... of the brush"

Before the woman could finish speaking, she was forcibly interrupted by the man: "Don't talk about those useless things, what charm can a broken painting have?" Lao Tzu only knows that the most expensive is the best!"

As he spoke, he raised his wrist and glanced at his Rolex, as the big boss of a well-known company, his every minute is very precious, he doesn't have much time to hang out with women here, in order to save time, he directly asked: "Waiter, which one is the most expensive one you have here?"

......

(ps: The contract has been sent, and the bosses who want to invest should get on the bus~~)
