"Boss Jiang, what kind of wind is blowing you!" Gu Wang, the owner of this shop, is a thin old man, and said to Jiang Ping with a smile on his face: "Please sit down, I'll make you a good cup of tea!"

Jiang Ping and this old man also chatted a few times, and when he heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Boss Gu, you are too polite." ”

"Where, where!" Gu Wang, the owner of the shop, said with a smile: "Everyone is a peer, and it would be too much to be polite." ”

This shop in Guwang specializes in all kinds of celebrity calligraphy and paintings, and there are also some good calligraphy and painting boutiques in the Ming and Qing dynasties. However, Jiang Ping felt that calligraphy and painting were not easy to preserve, so he didn't have any business dealings with him before, just chatted a few days.

But it was these few chats that let Gu Wang know that Jiang Ping had a deep understanding of calligraphy and painting. Although he had never seen Jiang Ping write and paint, a young man's deep understanding of ancient calligraphy and painting was enough for Gu Wang not to dare to despise Jiang Ping, but to treat him as his own contemporary.

And since Guwang's shop deals in celebrity calligraphy and painting, what kind of mounting and custom plaques are naturally within the scope of his business. Jiang Ping came to Gu Wang today because he took a fancy to his skills in this area.

Gu Wang quickly asked the shop guy to make good tea for Jiang Ping, and after taking two sips, Jiang Ping said unhurriedly: "Boss Gu, you should also know that my store has been renovated and plans to officially open at the end of this month." ”

"Then I really want to congratulate you, Boss Jiang!" Gu Wang said with a smile: "There are many people doing business on our street, but there are only ones like you who have their own store at a young age, and they are really young and promising!"

"Boss Gu has won the prize. Jiang Ping said modestly. Then he said with a smile: "But the store is about to open." But the name of the store hasn't been decided yet. So I want to ask Boss Gu to help me make the name of the store. ”

In the final analysis, Gu Wang and Jiang Ping are peers, and being invited by their peers to do shop signs is also a face-saving thing. In particular, Jiangping's store is very exquisitely decorated, which is obviously better than other antique shops on the antique street, and it is even more lively advertising to be able to make store signs for such a store.

In the future, if someone comes to Gu Wang to make a store sign, he just needs to tell the other party. The store signs of a certain store are all made by this store, and the other party will definitely have all his doubts and immediately hand over the business to Gu Wang.

Thinking of this, Gu Wang's thin face smiled even more, and he hurriedly said to Jiang Ping: "Thanks to Boss Jiang's trust, I will do it myself this time, and I promise to help you do the store properly and make no mistakes!"

Speaking of this, Gu Wang paused for a moment, and then asked Jiang Ping tentatively: "I just don't know if the words of the store name are ready, if they are ready, I will do it tomorrow!"

"I've already figured out the name. The words are not yet there. Jiang Ping smiled and said to Gu Wang: "I plan to write the name of the store by myself, can I borrow Boss Gu's pen and paper?"

Listened to Jiang Ping's words. Gu Wang couldn't help but be taken aback, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "Write it yourself, what good words can this young man write?" But don't take out a few dog crawling characters and ask me to make a store sign, that will smash my signboard." ”

Although his heart was full of suspicion, Gu Wang's face was still full of joy on the surface: "Oh, then I also want to appreciate Boss Jiang's calligraphy, Xiao Zhao, take out the best paper and ink pens!"

The guys in the store quickly prepared pen and paper, and Gu Wang personally helped Jiang Ping sharpen the ink. Although everyone had different ideas, they all gathered around the table and waited to watch Jiang Ping write.

However, Jiang Ping glanced at the small block pen prepared by the guy, shook his head and said to Gu Wang: "Boss Gu, I want to write such a big character, so it is convenient to make a signboard, so change it for me!"

Listening to Jiang Ping's words, Gu Wang was even more surprised. Writing with a brush is much more difficult than writing small characters that can be used as signboards. In fact, many shop signs are written in normal size characters first, and then enlarged according to the proportions.

However, although this method can enlarge small characters almost perfectly, it inevitably adds a bit of ingenuity, and makes the font lose much of its original charm.

Jiang Ping discovered this problem in his previous life, but it was someone else's shop, and he was not qualified to manage it at all. And in this life, since Jiang Ping has the opportunity to have his own shop, of course he will not allow the same thing to happen. He decided to write as large characters as the signboard, so that the signboard could retain the charm of the word to the greatest extent.

Of course, in this day and age, there are not many people who can write hand-picked calligraphy with a beautiful brush, and even fewer people who can write large characters. It's no wonder that when Gu Wang knew that Jiang Ping not only had to write the name of the store himself, but also wrote big characters, his face was full of surprise, and he even forgot to hide it.

Jiang Ping also knew why Gu Wang was so surprised, so naturally he wouldn't explain much. He just waited quietly for the guy to bring him a much larger brush, and then dipped it in ink, stood in front of the table that had been laid with top-quality rice paper, closed his eyes slightly, and first meditated in his heart on how to write the three words that had been decided a long time ago.

As the owner of a celebrity calligraphy and painting shop, Gu Wang certainly has a very good reputation in calligraphy and painting. Just looking at Jiang Ping's appearance, he couldn't help but praise in his heart. Connoisseurs can see that he can have such a calm bearing before putting down the pen, which shows that Jiang Ping does have some ability, which also makes Gu Wang look forward to what he writes next.

At this moment, Jiang Ping had already opened his eyes and wrote the three big characters of dragon flying and phoenix dancing on the rice paper in front of him: Yiyan Zhai.

"Okay, good words!" finally waited for Jiang Ping to finish writing, and before he put the pen away, Gu Wang couldn't help but praise loudly.

This is not a compliment, but a complete heartfelt admiration. Although Gu Wang has handled a lot of celebrity calligraphy and painting, except for those who were before the Republic of China, there are really few people who can write better than Jiang Ping!

This made Gu Wang very shocked in addition to the surprise, a young man less than twenty years old could write such a good calligraphy, which was completely unexpected by Gu Wang. Just now, Gu Wang was worried that Jiang Ping's words would smash his signboard, but now he started the idea of asking Jiang Ping to write a new signboard for himself.

However, in the end, Gu Wang still dispelled this idea. After all, his shop pù has a history of more than ten years, and the signboard has been used for so long, and the most important thing is that business is getting better and better so far. According to Chinese tradition, it is unlucky to change the signboard if there is nothing to do, and Gu Wang still does not plan to take this risk.

"Boss Gu has won the prize. Jiang Ping smiled modestly, and then said to Gu Wang: "Just make a wooden plaque according to these three words and put it outside the store, and then frame this character and put it in the store, okay?"

"No problem, no problem!" Gu Wang said to Jiang Ping in a loud voice: "Boss Jiang, don't worry, I will do this work myself to ensure that you are satisfied!"

If Gu Wang's attitude towards Jiang Ping was more of a businessman's enthusiasm before, but now it is very different. This is a real respect, and the reason is, of course, the character written by Jiang Ping.

Out of respect for Jiang Ping, who can write well, Gu Wang really kept his promise and personally made store signs for Jiang Ping. Not only that, because Jiang Ping also left the phrase "not afraid of spending money", and the materials used by Gu Wang are also the best. When the final store sign was completed, the total price was as high as 12,000.

As a signboard, the price is a bit intimidating. You must know that at present, this money is enough to buy a three-square-meter house in the best area of Suzhou City. However, Jiang Ping didn't say anything about it at all, but paid happily, and asked someone to hang up the signboard on the same day.

Jiang Ping would pay so happily, of course, because in the past few days when Gu Wang was making a signboard, he had made a lot of money. In the past few days, Jiang Ping added a grinder to the factory rented in the suburbs, picked a few pieces of rough stones from the rough stones he brought back, and brought them there to solve the stones.

These rough stones were all picked up by Jiang Ping using snobbery, and of course there is no need to say much about the quality. The three pieces of jadeite wool that came out are all ice species, the difference is that one is dark green, and two are yang green.

Jiang Ping left the thick green jade wool, and planned to make a few gadgets for his mother and sister, as well as those confidants. And the two pieces of ice green jadeite were taken by him to the two largest jewelry stores in Su City and sold.

Jiang Ping had already understood the price of jadeite wool in advance, and the other party was determined to buy it when he saw such a high-quality wool. Therefore, the transaction process was very smooth, and Jiang Ping added more than 10 million deposits to his bank account in just a few days.

Of course, Jiang Ping also knew that the price of jadeite would only get higher and higher, and in addition to selling a large number of high-quality rough stones in a short period of time, one would attract the attention of others, and the other would also lower the price, so Jiang Ping only solved two rough stones for sale. As for the other rough stones, I plan to keep them and sell them slowly to maximize the profits.

Since Jiang Ping earned more than 10 million yuan in a few days, the more than 10,000 yuan that made the signboard naturally didn't matter. After the signboard was hung up, the decoration company also sent someone to install an intelligent anti-theft iron door, and Jiang Ping's Yiyan Zhai could finally be officially opened.

In the opening of the store, Jiang Ping also adhered to a low-key character. He didn't do any too complicated ceremonies at all, just set off two strings of firecrackers that morning, and then opened the door to welcome guests, not even a single guest.

Even Wei Decheng and others, who had a very good relationship with Jiang Ping, received a phone call from Jiang Ping afterwards to inform them that their own store had opened. For this reason, Wei Decheng and they complained a lot, saying that the new store in Jiangping opened so quietly, which was a bit too child's play. In this regard, Jiang Ping always explained that he made a fortune in a muffled voice, and said that this was calculated by himself, and the best way to open the business.

Now that Jiang Ping is already very famous, since he has talked about this, it is difficult for others to say anything. Anyway, Jiang Ping didn't invite anyone, and it is still very fair that there is no situation where Zài favors one over the other.

And Jiang Ping's statement seems to be very reasonable, just two days after the opening of Yixiaozhai, there is business coming to the door. (To be continued......)
