Chapter 372: The Seal Altar
There is still a chill in early spring.
The morning sun has not risen on the East Lake in Lin'an, and there is even some thin ice near the shore. A few people who came from Huizhou were organizing a group for a morning run. Zhong Yue was used to getting up early, and as for the two who followed half-dead in the back, they staggered almost in a state of waking up from a half-dream.
After running for a few kilometers, Zhong Yue had long been unable to see the traces of Ou Yangming and Zhao Zhimin, and when he returned the same way, he saw the two who had already caught up in the car.
"You two are so interesting, aren't you?"
Ou Yangming rubbed his eyes, "Brother Yue, I really convinced you, you actually called us to get up early in the morning to come for morning exercises!"
"Why don't you think you're coming out early in the morning?"
Zhao Zhimin drooped his eyelids and said vaguely: "It's really curiosity that killed the baby......"
Zhong Yue took a sip of the soy milk he bought, and said with a smile: "Ah Ming is young and can say, if you continue to develop like this, you will not be a baby, and in another year or two, you will enter the ranks of middle-aged uncles." ”
"you. Zhao Zhimin grabbed two buns from the plastic bag and took two bites.
Zhong Yue asked, "It's been a few days since we came to Lin'an, why haven't we seen Elder Li visit friends?"
Zhao Zhimin wiped his glasses and said, "Master, it's the most unpopular kind in this circle. ”
"What do you mean?"
"The people in this circle are also divided into three, six, nine and so on. Didn't we see those old men of the Anhui faction in Huizhou before, do you know how much it costs for them to engrave a seal for people?"
"How much?"
"Tens of thousands. Zhao Zhimin raised his eyebrows.
Zhong Yue said: "It's so expensive? Old Li seems to be asking for six hundred for one word, right?"
"Master, this is 600 per word, the price has been at this price since 20 years ago, and the price has never increased in the past 20 years. ”
Zhong Yue was a little surprised, looking at it now, it seems that six hundred per word is acceptable, but if it was placed twenty years ago, this six hundred yuan is simply a sky-high price!
"It's been so long, and Elder Li hasn't thought about raising prices?"
Zhao Zhimin said: "I told the master several times that I wanted to raise the price, and he always said that the customers were familiar with this price, and they were embarrassed when it went up, so it was always at this listed price." However, listing to rule the seal is very unpopular in this circle, He Xu and those people are not as famous as the master, but their temper is not small, plus the relationship between Mao Jianghe, so the master has always been to the point, not much deep friendship. ”
"Is there anything wrong with listing the seal?" Zhong Yue was a little puzzled, "Back then, Qi Baishi still sold paintings at a clear price, but it was still a cabbage for sale, and a shrimp for painting." ”
Zhao Zhimin said: "But some people don't think so, they think it's insulting to be listed." ”
"Fart!" Ou Yangming sat up with a yawn, "This kind of sullen fake seriousness is really underwhelming." ”
Zhong Yue turned his head with a smile, "Wake up, oh, there is still one bun left." ”
"It's cold!"
"Don't eat and pull down. ”
Zhao Zhimin continued: "Listing the seal is just to make ends meet, and now the master collects six hundred per word, and it is no longer to make money, but to do something, and those masters in the studio, you say it's really for money?" ”
"Just because of this, Elder Li doesn't accept people in the printing world?"
"Anything that is listed for the seal and clearly marked the price will end up like this. But I can also see that Master is a happy true gentleman, at least the people who come to us to ask for seals are happy, and when they go to other places, although they don't say it, they don't have 5,000 yuan, and they don't let you take the seal at all, they are all a group of embryos. ”
Zhong Yue patted Zhao Zhimin's shoulder and said, "Each has its own way of living." He doesn't advocate that all those who engage in art should clearly mark the price, but can only say that being a real person like Li Deming is also a kind of high-spirited festival.
……
……
At noon, Zhong Yue went to visit Qiu Wenzhen, and by the way, he invited Li Deming to go with him, and the two old men talked with each other, and talked about the time when they finished eating, and there was a hearty smile in the room from time to time, and there was a kind of hatred for each other. Zhong Yue looked at the invitations and VIP cards sent to him, and wondered how to promote the formation of this alliance in three days.
He contacted Liu Tong and Zhao Yongsheng, and they all said that they would attend the Xiling Summit, but they are not very senior Indian scholars, just calligraphers and university professors, and it is naturally difficult to speak out as special guests to attend the summit. Zhong Yue pondered for a long time, this iron still needs to be hard, and now his level of governing the seal is still at a high level, there is no representative work, in terms of fame, it is needless to talk about, there is no such person as him in the printing world.
The seal is the foundation, the chapter is the foundation, and the knife is the embodiment of the level. Now Zhong Yue's seal method and chapter method were observed in the "Seven Holy Maps" at the beginning, and the ancient rhyme of the seal method was obtained by the wonderful hand, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain, as for the knife method, it is not very good.
It's a pity that there is no sword technique in the system that can be directly improved, otherwise Zhong Yuezhi's seal will be even more dazzling. Now Zhong Yue's seal is still on paper, that is, to draw the seal with a pen, for the chapter and seal law, Li Deming commented that Zhong Yue is already very level, as for the knife, as Qiu Wenzhen said, I can't wait to chop Zhong Yue's fingers......
Zhong Yue, who was practicing basic skills with a carving knife outside, was very depressed, and he was not an immortal, how could he be able to do everything?
The main quest of the system is updated, please check it in time. ”
Zhong Yue carved the knife in his hand, if it weren't for this long-lost voice, Zhong Yue would have almost forgotten the main quest, and it had been so long, after the original task of painting with books was over, there would be no follow-up to the main quest, Zhong Yue didn't pay much attention to it during the New Year, and actually forgot about it.
He saw that the two old men in the room had not yet come out, so he couldn't wait to enter the penmanship system to check the newly released main quest.
[Organization Alliance]: Plan and organize the Calligraphy and Painting Alliance to contribute to the revival of Chinese calligraphy and painting. If the host successfully participates in the organization, it can obtain the special service of the system once.
“……”
Why does it sound so yellow?
Just as Zhong Yue was thinking about the problem in the penmanship system, the two old men looking at the window were talking worriedly.
"You see, Ah Yue, this kid, does have extraordinary talent for chapter law and seal law, but as soon as he picks up the knife, it is like a mental retard, you look at it, he is in a daze again!"
Li Deming nodded and said: "Brother Qiu, don't be too strict with your requirements, after all, no one is perfect, and the sword technique can be practiced, but the spirituality of the chapter law and seal law is difficult to buy." ”
"But I'm angry when I see how stupid he is......"
Zhong Yue didn't know that when he entered the system, he was mistaken by the two old men for "polio", and he couldn't get a knife there.
