Chapter 51: Apprenticeship I
The boxes that Fang Yi brought down the mountain this time were all placed on the second floor of the Manjun family, and it was easy to find them, after opening the box upstairs, looking at the package of things wrapped in oiled paper, Fang Yi's expression was a little complicated.
In the past, when he was on the mountain, the old Taoist priest had to go down the mountain for a period of time almost every year, as short as ten days and a half months, and it would take more than a month to grow up.
As the saying goes, seeing things and thinking about people, looking at these things, the cynical appearance of the old Taoist priest suddenly appeared in Fang Yi's mind, and shook his head, Fang Yi first reached out and put the old agarwood beads on his wrist, and he put the beads into the box when he was cleaning yesterday.
"ID card, Taoist priest certificate, abbot certificate, Taoist knowledge training certificate......"
After opening the oiled paper bag, Fang Yi took out several documents, and finally just took out his ID card and Taoist knowledge training certificate, and then carefully wrapped the other documents in oiled paper and put them at the bottom of the box.
In any case, these documents were all left to Fang Yi by the old Taoist, and it was also a thought for Fang Yi, even if they were really all fake certificates that the old Taoist priest had asked someone to make, Fang Yi was reluctant to throw them away.
"Fang Yi, hurry up and show it to me......" As soon as Fang Yi walked downstairs, Old Sun's body stood up and stretched out his hand impatiently.
It's not that Sun Lianda will accept Fang Yi as a disciple if he has a diploma, but whether he has a diploma or not will determine the path Fang Yi will take in the future, from Sun Lianda's heart, he still wants Fang Yi to have an official identity, so he will attach so much importance to this diploma.
"Issued by the Taoist Association, and there is a steel seal?" Taking the light and fluttering page of paper that Fang Yi handed over without even a cover, Sun Lianda first looked at the unit and seal that issued the certificate, and his eyes suddenly lit up at this look.
"I'm looking at it, Hong Tao, you can also look at ......"
After reading it several times, Sun Lianda handed the certificate to Zhao Hongtao and said: "The date of issuance of this certificate is written in ninety-five years, I heard that the Taoist Association held several classes in those years, but I didn't expect Fang Yi to participate in it?"
Chaotian Palace was built by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in order to worship Taoists at the earliest, and now although it has been changed to Jinling Museum, there are still a few Taoist priests in it a few years ago, and Sun Lianda also has a little understanding of Taoist things.
"Old Sun, this certificate was handled by the master, I have never participated in this class......" After hearing Sun Lianda's words, Fang Yi hurriedly stated, even if this certificate was real, it was also done by the master through the back door.
"If this certificate is true, you can ......" Sun Lianda smiled and waved his hand, he is not a pedantic person, as long as he is not allowed to cheat, as for how this certificate came from, he doesn't care.
"Teacher, the ID should be real......"
Zhao Hongtao took the certificate and looked at it several times, and finally nodded and said: "There is also a certificate number on it, it should be recorded, tomorrow I will let people check it after I go to work, if it is true, let the education department here issue a certificate jiàn, and the problem of Fang Yi's diploma can be solved......"
"Okay, as long as this certificate works, Xiaofang, you will participate in the national unified examination at the end of the year!" After hearing Zhao Hongtao's words, Sun Lianda was very happy, beckoned and said: "Come, everyone sit, the old man is happy today, let's have a few more drinks......"
"Teacher, if you want to accept students, you have to ask Fang Yi if he is willing first......" After returning the documents to Fang Yi, Zhao Hongtao whispered in the teacher's ear.
"Hey, look at me, this is overjoyed......"
Hearing the student's words, Sun Lianda reacted, he seemed to only care about asking about Fang Yi's diploma, but he forgot to ask him if he would like to be his own disciple, saying that even if Fang Yi succeeds in the postgraduate examination, this tutor and student are also a two-way choice.
"Xiao Fang, I don't know if you want to be my disciple and learn from me about the identification of cultural relics and antiques?" Taking a deep breath, Sun Lianda finally said this sentence, I don't know why, he was still a little nervous in his heart, for fear that Fang Yi would not agree.
Sun Lianda is an old-fashioned person, he knows that it is much more difficult to accept a disciple with good moral character than to meet a famous teacher, which is also the reason why many craftsmen in the past could not meet good disciples, and would rather let the craftsmanship be lost, and if he missed Fang Yi, I am afraid that Sun Lianda would never have the idea of accepting disciples again in his life.
"The teacher actually said that the disciple is not the student, it seems that he really values this Fang Yi......" Zhao Hongtao next to him heard the teacher's words, and sighed secretly in his heart, seeing that the meaning of these two words is similar, but the actual meaning is very far away.
As a professor at Jinling University, Sun Lianda has taught and educated people all over the world in this life, which can be said to be full of students, but these students will not respect Sun Lianda like the "teacher" in the respect of the prince of heaven and earth, because the teacher's profession is to train students, which is also Sun Lianda's job.
However, the disciples are different, not to mention, that is, in the Republic of China period for decades, the teacher treated the disciple who passed on the mantle and treated the son almost the same, and the apprentice respected the teacher and regarded him as his own father, and the difference between the two was just a blood relationship.
Seeing that Sun Lianda was not talking about students but disciples, Zhao Hongtao was envious in his heart.
When Zhao Hongtao followed Sun Lianda as a graduate student, he didn't know much about these rules in the industry, so he just followed Sun Lianda to learn the relevant majors of museum management.
So now in the circle, others will say that Zhao Hongtao is a student of Sun Lianda, but they will not say that Zhao Hongtao is a disciple of Sun Lianda.
"Elder Sun, do you want to accept me as a disciple?"
Although he had guessed a little bit of Sun Lianda's mind before, after piercing this layer of window paper, Fang Yi was still stunned for a moment, and said: "Old Sun, my diploma is not real, and I haven't gone to school, aren't you afraid that I will embarrass you?"
Like Sun Lianda, Fang Yi is also very cautious in choosing a teacher, although he really wants to follow Sun Lianda to learn the knowledge of antique appreciation, but the ugly words still have to be said in front, otherwise if Sun Lianda cares about Fang Yi's academic qualifications one day, it will be too late to expel him from the teacher.
"Fang Yi, did you misunderstand what I meant......"
After hearing Fang Yi's words, Sun Lianda shook his head with a smile and said: "What I value most is you as a person, not academic qualifications, if I want to accept graduate students with academic qualifications, I can bring several of them every year, I just asked you about your academic qualifications, just to make you go more smoothly in this industry in the future......
Speaking of this, Sun Lianda reached out and picked up the wine in front of him, drank it in one gulp, put down the wine glass and continued: "Even if you don't have any academic qualifications, as long as you have real talent and real learning, I believe that my Sun Lianda's disciple will not be worse than anyone else, how about it?" Fang Yi, are you willing to learn something from the old man?"
Sun Lianda said that he had said this, Fang Yi had no reason to agree, stood up at the moment, and said respectfully: "Teacher, I am willing!"
"Okay, good, good!" After hearing Fang Yi's words, Sun Lianda slapped his thigh excitedly and said: "Accept this good apprentice, when you float a big white, Hong Tao, pour wine ......"
Sun Lianda has been confiscating disciples for so many years, but he can't meet students with excellent conduct and understanding, and now that he is older, he often thinks that it is a pity that his ability has not been passed on.
But now Fang Yi apprentices, Sun Lianda can be regarded as a wish, he believes that although Fang Yi has not systematically studied the relevant knowledge of cultural relics identification, but with his deep historical foundation, he can definitely pass on his mantle.
"Teacher, although I am happy today, you can only drink one more glass......" Zhao Hongtao picked up the wine bottle, he knew that the teacher only had three taels of wine, and he was already playing at a super level today, and if he drank it again, he would hurt himself.
"Brother Zhao, I'll give the teacher this drink......"
Fang Yi is a person who attaches great importance to etiquette, since he has decided to worship Sun Lianda as a teacher, this worship cannot be avoided, he immediately took the wine bottle in Zhao Hongtao's hand, and poured wine into the cup in front of Sun Lianda.
"Teacher, this cup of wine is a disciple to respect you, from now on, one day is a teacher and a lifetime is a father, Fang Yi will remember the teacher's teachings, please ask the teacher to drink this cup of wine......"
Picking up the wine glass, Fang Yi left the table and came to Sun Lianda, holding the wine glass in one hand, pulling the chair behind Sun Lianda with the other, kneeling down as soon as his knees were weak, raising his glass with both hands, and respectfully raising it above his head.
"This ...... This, good boy, get up, get up, I'll drink, I'll drink this wine......"
Sun Lianda really didn't expect that Fang Yi would actually use the ritual of apprenticeship of the older generation, and when he heard what Fang Yi said, his heart was suddenly excited, and his lips trembled when he spoke, you know, where can such a sensible disciple go to find it?
Taking the wine glass that Fang Yi held above his head, Sun Lianda drank it all, and after putting down the glass, he helped Fang Yi up with both hands, how to see how he liked it, his eyes were full of doting.
"Fang Yi, since you have worshipped the master, the master will give you a worship gift......
After letting Fang Yi sit beside him, Sun Lianda untied a pendant from his waist, handed it to Fang Yi's hand, and said: "This is a piece of Hetian jade carved fisherman's carving from the teacher's family, and I have been wearing it for several lifetimes, and today the teacher will pass him on to you......"
"Teacher, this ...... This is your family heirloom......" Zhao Hongtao on the side saw that the teacher actually took out this handle, and his face couldn't help but change, but before he finished speaking, he stopped under the teacher's eyes.
