Chapter 7: A bet with Master Yao
"Xu Hong, how can you still paint! Why don't I know!" Yao Mei originally came to visit the art exchange meeting with Jin Fatzi, but she went to the bathroom just now, and then returned to Jin Fatzi's side.
Yao Mei and Xu Hong have also been together for a few months, she has never seen Xu Hong paint, nor has she heard him say that he can draw. But now she saw Xu Hong holding an art exhibition at the exchange meeting, how could she not be surprised.
Yao Mei saw that someone dared to show her paintings on the booth next to Master Yao, and this person was none other than her ex-boyfriend, how could she not be very surprised, you must know that she and Xu Hong have been together for a year, and she has never heard Xu Hong say that he can paint!
"Haha, you don't know that I have a lot of things! What is painting, I still like to sing, dance and play the violin!" Xu Hong deliberately in front of Yao Mei.
"Yo, yes, it seems, you're a multi-talented person! Well, I hope you'll become a great painter in the future." Yao Mei also looked at Xu Hong with contemptuous eyes.
"Don't worry, I will definitely be able to become a great painter, a great painter who is more well-known than Master Yao. Xu Hong was reckless for a while, and his voice was very loud, he forgot that Master Yao was sitting next to him!
Yao Hong didn't want to meet Xu Hong in general, but when he heard Xu Hong's words, he couldn't sit still.
"Yo, little brother, your tone is not small! You have only been practicing painting for a few years! I have been working in the painting industry for 20 years!" Yao Hong came to Xu Hong and looked at Xu Hong with disdain.
"Are you Master Yao? Fortunately, I will be lucky! I have been practicing painting for more than three years!" Xu Hong pretended to reach out and shake Yao Hong.
"Little brother, I admire your courage! After so many years, no one dares to display paintings in front of my Yao Hong's booth, and you are the first person! Haven't you heard of the idiom that the class has an axe!" Yao Hong attacked Xu Hong unceremoniously.
"Why haven't I heard of it, I just want to get to know Master Yao!Otherwise, how can I talk to Master Yao!" Xu Hong was not angry, and gave a very reasonable reason.
"Haha, well, well-said, it seems that you are still a very resourceful fellow! You are indeed smarter than ordinary painters! No one has thought of this for so many years! It seems that you are trying to take advantage of me this time, but I want to tell you that it is impossible for anyone to buy your works when you display them next to me, and now there are only two days left in the exhibition, and I can guarantee that you will not be able to sell a single of your works. ”
Master Yao listened to Xu Hong's words, he was really a little angry, thinking about Xu Hong, this kid, actually wanted to know himself through such a method, but he was really stunned!
"Yes, then Master Yao would dare to bet with me! If my works can be sold within two days!" Xu Hong saw that Yao Hong was not polite to him and looked down on him, so he was naturally very angry.
"Haha, okay, bet on it, if your work can be sold in two days, I will give you as much as you sell. But if you can't sell a single one, then you have to kneel in front of me in front of everyone and kowtow to me to admit your mistakes. ”
Yao Hong is also very generous, although it is a bet, he doesn't want Xu Hong's money, just let Xu Hong kowtow to himself.
Yao Hong's generosity is like a sharp sword, piercing Xu Hong's self-esteem. Because Master Yao has money, he naturally doesn't care about paying Xu Hong money, but what people want is status and dignity, and you Xu Hong don't need these at all.
"Okay, Master Yao is a rich man, I agree to you make such a bet, then that's it, let's gamble!" Xu Hong needs money and doesn't want to worry about Yao Hong, so he can only agree to Yao Hong's betting method.
"Hmph, then we'll see, I'll see who's going to buy your worthless scrap. After Yao Hong finished speaking, he held his head high and returned to his booth.
"Haha, Xu Hong, you kid is done now, you dare to offend Master Yao, I dare to say that no one dares to buy your works, not only will no one buy them for two days, but no one will buy your works in the future, you stupid young man B, dare to get an axe in front of Master Yao, and dare to bet with Master Yao, you are really self-destructive future!"
The fat man Jin had been watching Xu Hong and Master Yao arguing just now, and he saw that Xu Hong dared to get along with Master Yao, so he was 'worried' about this stupid boy!
"Xu Hong, you really disappointed me! I didn't expect that I left you, and you didn't grow at all! You don't even understand a little human accident, you still want to become a great painter! It's ridiculous!" Yao Mei also saw that Xu Hong had offended Master Yao just now, so she also laughed at him.
"Haha, then go and buy all of Master Yao's paintings! Don't affect my business here. Xu Hong listened to Yao Mei's cool words, and he was not polite.
"Hmph, Xu Hong, you're really incorrigible! Let's go, let's go somewhere else." Yao Mei pulled the golden fat man and left Xu Hong's booth.
Xu Hong saw Yao Mei leave, so he sat down on the chair angrily.
Some of the people who watched the excitement next to him have also dispersed now. The scene, which was originally quite lively, suddenly became deserted.
However, in front of Master Yao's booth next to it, there are still many people who appreciate Master Yao's works, and some have paid for some collections.
"Damn! Did I do something wrong, although Master Xu Beihong was a great painter in that world, but in this world he was just a physicist, and his works were not recognized by anyone in this world at all! Am I really going to lose! If I can't sell a pair within two days, I'm going to lose my adult!"
Xu Hong looked at his booth for a long time, and there was no one to appreciate his works, let alone collect and buy, and he felt a little drumming in his heart.
At this time, a well-dressed middle-aged couple came to Xu Hong's booth, they looked at Xu Hong's works, and then whispered.
"Husband, this kid's work is good! It looks like his skills are very deep! He has great potential! Do we want to collect one!" said the middle-aged woman with jewels all over her body to her husband in a suit and leather shoes next to her.
"Well, the painting is good, but he is not famous! Collecting his paintings is risky, let's go and see Master Yao's paintings! Master Yao's works, the price is rising every year!" Although the middle-aged man agrees with his wife's opinion, he still does not want to collect Xu Hong's works.
