As Master Pony's words fell, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

Director He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, if this first work could not be made, it was hard to imagine that this Miss Jones would attach importance to their cooperation, but if this first shot was fired, the rest would be easier to say.

Oliver looked at Chen Dahe, "You come and talk to them, the price is not a problem, the important thing is the quality, and it is best to complete it within three years, because it will be the old gentleman's seventieth birthday,"

At this time, she remembered that Chen Dahe had just said that she couldn't rush the work, so she blushed slightly and said embarrassedly, "I don't mean to rush the work, if it really can't be completed, it doesn't matter, quality is the most important." ”

Chen Dahe nodded, looked at Director He and said, "Director He, then you took this order?"

Director He glanced at Master Xiao Ma and saw her nodding slightly, before turning his head and saying, "Take it!"

"Okay," Chen Dahe smiled, "I don't know how this price is set?"

"This," Director He hesitated a little and said with a wry smile, "Comrade Chen, to be honest, we can't determine this price yet, because this thing depends on the process and working hours, from the process of speaking, this painting is definitely more complex than ordinary paintings, and in terms of working hours, it will also take longer, we need to go through accounting before we can give a quotation, but it will definitely be far more than this horse picture." ”

Chen Dahe pursed his lips and nodded, then looked at Oliver, "They can't confirm the quotation yet, and they need to go through accounting." ”

"It's okay," Oliver smiled, "you can calculate while you prepare, they can't ask for a million dollars." ”

Chen Dahe smiled dumbly, "Of course it's impossible, according to my estimate, a maximum of 100,000 US dollars is more than enough." ”

"That's fine," Oliver said, looking at a dozen more works in the gallery, "Can I take them all with me?"

"I'll ask later," Chen Dahe turned his head to look at Director He and smiled, "Director He, then this order will be handed over to you, Miss Jones will pay a deposit of 20,000 US dollars first, and this oil painting can only be kept here for three months, and after three months, I will come and take it away." ”

"Okay," Director He nodded in surprise, he thought it would be good to receive a deposit of one or two thousand dollars, but he didn't expect to give twenty thousand directly, this Miss Jones is really bold in doing business, but then he thought that this painting could only be kept for three months, and looked at Master Ma hesitantly.

Master Pony smiled slightly, looked at Chen Dahe and asked, "Comrade Chen, can we take a picture of this painting?"

Chen Dahe was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Oliver, "She said she wanted to take a picture of this painting, is it okay?"

"Photo?" Oliver confirmed, grabbed the painting tube on the table, and doubled it from the tail, and pulled out another scroll, and when he opened it, it turned out to be two photos of the original size of the painting.

Looking at everyone's surprised eyes, Oliver chuckled, "We have already prepared two photos, using professional high-definition photo paper, except for the lack of the charm of this painting, the other colors are exactly the same." ”

Chen Dahe raised his eyebrows slightly, "This is for them?"

"Of course," Oliver shrugged, "and we want this and it's useless. ”

Chen Dahe took the photo from Oliver's hand and handed it to Master Pony, "Master Ma, do you see if this can be used?"

Master Pony took it and looked at it carefully for two minutes before nodding slightly, "You can use this, you don't need the original painting." ”

"Don't use the original painting?" Chen Dahe glanced at the oil painting on the table and whispered, "Master Ma, Miss Jones attaches great importance to this work, if it is biased in terms of artistic conception, it may not be received." ”

When Master Ma heard this, he hesitated slightly, looked at the painting on the table, and finally shook his head slightly, "If you want to talk about the artistic conception, it is still the best Chinese painting, although this painting is also good, but it is the level of general Chinese painting, and it is not as good as the master's work, its advantage is that the color is strong and the visual sense is strong, with these two photos as a reference, there is no problem in restoring the artistic conception inside." ”

Since this little horse master is so confident, Chen Dahe will not say anything more, so it is just right, if he really wants to leave this painting worth tens of millions of dollars here, Chen Dahe will definitely arrange for two people to watch here, and now he has saved a lot of effort, and then he personally put away this oil painting.

"Then it's troublesome Master Ma," Chen Dahe handed the painting tube to Ma Jiatong, thanked him first, and then asked, "Master Ma, I wonder how long it will take to complete this painting?"

"About a year," Master Pony thought for a moment, and extended the period by half just to be on the safe side, "a year and a half at most." ”

"Well, I'll wait for good news. Chen Dahe also breathed a sigh of relief, no matter how slow it was, two years should be enough, and he could fully catch up with Oliver's requirements.

"Comrade Chen," Director He saw that they had negotiated, and hurriedly said with a smile, "We have decided this, when do you think we can sign the contract?"

"You can do it at any time," Chen Dahe said with a smile, "but don't worry about it first, there are two other things to deal with together." ”

Director He was stunned, "There are two more things, what are they?"

Chen Dahe turned his head to look at Dong Jianlei, and he immediately stepped forward and took out a document bag from the briefcase he was holding in his hand and handed it over.

Opening the file bag, there was a stack of design drawings, some simple and some complex, Chen Dahe handed it to Director He in a hurry, and said with a smile, "Director He, since that oil painting can be made, then these gadgets must be fine." ”

These are all selected from the design drawings brought by Oliver, specially used to test the water artwork custom.

Director He took it and looked at it, counted twelve sheets, basically two feet square, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Comrade Chen, you have taken care of our factory for the next two or three years!"

Although the difficulty of these drawings is not as good as the oil painting, but it is still higher than the horse in front of me, there are so many masters in the factory, a master with two apprentices, it will probably take about five months to complete one, even if it is divided into three groups to start, only six copies can be completed in a year, and then counting the mistakes that may be caused by the new pattern, it will indeed take two or three years to complete.

Chen Dahe laughed, "That's not right, you don't have to worry about orders in the past two or three years, and you can also recruit more apprentices and expand the Silk Research Institute." ”

"That's right," Director He was painful and happy, and said with a smile, "Comrade Chen, I will report the price of these silk products to you later, if you can be satisfied with the things made, you can take care of us more." ”

"Of course, no problem," Chen Dahe said with a smile, "I also hope to be able to charge a few more silk artworks, so let's pay a deposit of $100,000 together with the oil painting just now, and settle the payment for each completed piece." ”

"Okay," Director He said happily, and asked again, "You just said that there are two things, what is the other one?"

"That's the exhibit here," Chen Dahe said, pointing to the works in the exhibition hall, "Miss Jones wants to buy them all, is that okay?"

Before Director He could speak, Master Chen on the side shook his head again and again, "No, no, we still have to keep these for learning, and sell them to them, so what do our apprentices learn?"

Ma Lao also nodded in agreement, "These exhibits are indeed not for sale, if you only buy one or two pieces and you can be accommodating, it is absolutely impossible to buy them all, and it doesn't matter how much money you have." ”

Director He didn't speak, just smiled bitterly at Chen Dahe, obviously he didn't agree.

"Okay then," Chen Dahe sighed, "then buy two, okay?"

Several masters got together and discussed in a low voice, and finally Ma Lao said, "You can buy two, but you can only buy the works we specify, one is this horse picture, and the other is the magnolia yellow bird." ”

Chen Dahe rubbed his head, looked at Oliver and smiled bitterly, "There is no problem with the customized works, but the exhibits here are not for sale, and I can only buy two pieces if I try to do it." ”

Oliver nodded, "Two pieces are two, I won't sell them when I buy them back, I'll keep them myself." ”

Chen Dahe shrugged, "Then you have to keep it, but don't let the noble of the Addams family know, otherwise you may not be able to keep it." ”

"Uh," Oliver rolled his eyes, "then I won't bring it back, I'll leave you here, and I'll come to you if I want to see it." ”

"Put me here?" Chen Dahe was stunned, then nodded, "It's okay, just let me go here." ”

He didn't think to buy the works here, because the products were all American-style, he wasn't very interested, he was interested in the person of Master Pony, it was obvious that this little master should be the best weaver in the silk factory, and when she finished this oil painting, he simply wrapped her up.

Uh, why is this so weird, it's not a bag, it's a bag of all her works, and she can do whatever she likes, isn't it much better than buying these exhibits in front of her.

The next day, on behalf of Jones & Company, Chen Dahe signed an order agreement with the silk mill and promised to pay a deposit of $100,000 over seven days.

After doing this most important thing, the group can finally return to North Gold, and from there Oliver will also fly back to the United States.
