Gao Qianqian was able to go directly to the knife without doing any detailed drawing, and finally could carve something of this level, even Zhang Tianyuan had to admire, this girl is really terrible, it is estimated that purely from the aspect of lettering, many domestic carving masters are not as good as her, I really don't know how this girl came over for more than ten years, how to study this technology.

"Excellent!"

In addition to these words, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't think of any other words that could be used to praise Gao Qianqian, he felt that he was a little short of words, he could say so much on weekdays, but today he couldn't say it because he was nervous and excited, he put his hand on Gao Qianqian's shoulder, patted it gently, and said: " Sissi, from today onwards, the seal engraving in this shop will be handed over to you, not only that, but I will also highly recommend your skills across the country, but before you become famous, you have to train a few talents in this area for me, otherwise you will become a master in the future, then my small shop will not be able to afford it. ”

Zhang Tianyuan naturally invited, but you must know that after a person becomes famous, many things will change, Zhang Tianyuan doesn't want the person he packaged to leave him one day and leave nothing, it would be too bad, so he planned to let Gao Qianqian take two more apprentices in Zhang Tianyuan, who was carving.

Of course, this apprentice must select the most talented, and ordinary people are afraid that they will not be able to learn skills like Gao Qianqian.

Fortunately, he had set up a training student in Shangpu before, and now the academy can be said to be full of talents, and two or even a few people who are interested in carving seals and have talent are selected. It's not that hard.

"Hehe, Brother Zhang, you're really embarrassed to say that. What am I, if it weren't for Brother Zhang, you would look up to me. So even if I have this technology, it's not the same that I can't make money?"

Gao Qianqian is self-aware, she knows that her hope lies in Zhang Tianyuan, with Zhang Tianyuan, she will have a better life in the future, so now, she must not show any rebellious heart, what Zhang Tianyuan says, then she has to promise something. What's more, what people said is not too much, they just want her to take two apprentices, if they don't even agree to this condition, then I'm afraid that people can't spend millions to hold a nationwide seal carving competition, right?

Just carve slowly by yourself, I'm afraid that you will never want to become a master for the rest of your life, this is the difference between rich hype and no money hype.

"Okay, as long as Sissi agrees, don't worry. As long as you want, I will give you the best treatment, let you stay, and engrave the income. I've already told you that I won't change my mind if you have time. Let's sign this contract sometime. ”

Zhang Tianyuan really looks up to Gao Qianqian, but he is also afraid that people like Gao Qianqian will have a lot of thoughts. After all, in today's society, there are too many people who change jobs. Some people not only change jobs, but may even directly take away a group of people, for such talents, you must not only make good use of them, but also take good precautions, you can't let him go, but you can't get anything, then you regret it.

"By the way, Boss Zhang, how do we price this seal?" Although Lao Yu is the shopkeeper of this store, Zhang Tianyuan is the big boss, and this batch of bloodstones is also sold here by Zhang Tianxue in his private name, which has nothing to do with the company, that is to say, the money earned back is Zhang Tianyuan's private, at most it is to give the company some labor fees and land occupation fees, of course, the last money is still his, after all, the HRE Group is a private company, whether it is public money or private money, if Zhang Tianyuan is not clear, it is estimated that many people will be confused.

"The price of the material itself, plus the cost of making the seal, and how to collect the fee of the system, mainly depends on the size and style of the seal, as well as the number of characters and the complexity of the process. I'll set a reserve price for this standard, 1,000 yuan!" Zhang Tianyuan thought for a while.

That is to say, no matter what the material, the minimum processing fee is one thousand, this is the current value of Gao Qianqian given by Zhang Tianyuan, of course, this money is a little small, this is mainly because Gao Qianqian is not famous, otherwise let alone a thousand, it is estimated that ten thousand don't want her to do it.

But as soon as these words came out, those guests began to discuss, some approved, and of course some did not.

"Hey, boss, what are you kidding, it's like this bloodstone, it's only worth one or two hundred yuan, and your processing fee will cost a thousand, which is ten times the price, it's too dark." ”

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of jokes when I say this, according to you, those who spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy calligraphy and paintings are fools?

"I can't say that, the calligraphy and paintings I bought are all works of celebrities, and this little girl is not a celebrity. ”

"So, I want you to pay a processing fee of 1,000 yuan, if she is a celebrity, do you think 1,000 yuan can? To be honest, I don't think this little girl's skills are worse than those masters, and the processing fee of 1,000 yuan is worth it. ”

"You're not going to be the babysitter in this store, are you?"

"Childcare? joke, who doesn't know the Shenluo antique shop in this Pan Jiayuan, and you still need childcare? You are from out of town, don't you understand, if you want to say that Mr. Zhang is looking for childcare, I don't believe it, he is the antique shop, you buy it back, that is the absolute most reassuring place. ”

"Anyway, I still think it's too expensive, and Mr. Zhang is not short of money, can't he give everyone a cheaper?"

"Yes, yes, it's so expensive, where would anyone buy it. ”

"Why doesn't anyone buy it? The bloodstone I chose is worth more than 100,000 yuan, are you still afraid of thousands of processing fees? They don't want me, old Yu shopkeeper, hurry up and calculate how much money it is, make an appointment first, I will find someone to help design a pattern, and then let this girl help carve, hum, some people know bluffing without vision, according to me, this girl can definitely become a master-level seal master in less than three years. ”

In fact, the seal charges a processing fee, which is normal, after all, this is a cultural play seal, not an ordinary seal, and even if it is an ordinary seal, it is also necessary to charge money, but it is much cheaper.

Zhang Tianyuan actually didn't bother to talk to these people, and he kept saying that he wouldn't buy it. It was all insightful, and he didn't bother to take care of it. Anyway, good things don't have to worry about selling, and this bloodstone is not something to eat. I'm not afraid of breaking it if I put it away. So without waiting for those people to continue to say anything, he came to a sentence: "Old Yu shopkeeper, if someone doesn't even want to pay this processing fee, then don't worry about him, although we are doing open business, but we are not pimping, there is no need to be low, love to buy or not, we really don't worry about buyers." ”

Naturally, he had the confidence to say this. As a celebrity in China today, a big celebrity, and a big boss, many of his words have been put on the Internet as famous sayings for many people to learn, although many of them misinterpret his original meaning, but in general, what he is saying now is completely weighty.

A thousand dollars is too expensive? This is not a guest. This simply doesn't know how to respect art!

"Brother Zhang, can I say a few words?" Gao Qianqian suddenly looked at Zhang Tianyuan and said, she didn't want to mess up Zhang Tianyuan's relationship with customers because of herself.

"Well, you can say whatever you want. Zhang Tianyuan also wanted to hear what Gao Qianqian had to say.

"Ladies and gentlemen. My grandfather was the one who carved seals, so I actually had deep feelings about the engraving industry. Nowadays, all the stamps engraved on the street are engraved by computers, because it is fast and trouble-free. There are fewer and fewer veteran craftsmen like my grandfather, and now it is almost impossible to find that kind of engraving master on the market. Unless there are superb seal stones such as bloodstone, Shoushan stone, and hibiscus stone, there will be masters to carve, but even today, there are very few masters of carving seals......"

"This is normal, what do you want to say, although people still use official seals or private seals when buying houses and signing some contracts, but they are all engraved with ordinary materials and computers, who would use bloodstone such a valuable material." ”

"Yes, yes, I don't understand what you want to say at all, if you want to win our sympathy, then forget it, we spend money on things, and we don't want you for nothing. ”

"yes, can't you tell the truth?"

Gao Qianqian's words made Zhang Tianyuan hear it like a fog, and he didn't quite understand why Gao Qianqian said such things at this time, was it really to win sympathy? It seems that it shouldn't be, Gao Qianqian is not such a person.

"Actually, my meaning is very simple, why am I willing to carve seals for Brother Zhang's store, instead of carving seals for others? It is because Brother Zhang regards this as an art, just like calligraphy and painting, and not just skills. Like I said, if you want to buy cheap and practical stamps, you can buy them in the store across the street, so you don't have to come to the antique shop, right?"

Hearing this, Zhang Tianyuan seemed to understand a little, this Gao Qianqian was going around, just to elevate the status of the engraver, in fact, although this set is ordinary, but you really don't want to say it, maybe it's really useful.

He didn't interrupt Gao Qianqian, but let the girl continue.

"Ancient seals, like calligraphy and painting, advocate the celebrity effect and pay attention to the level of craftsmanship. Generally speaking, the fame and status of the seal engraver and the seal owner are directly proportional to the value of the work. However, ancient seals are different from popular varieties such as calligraphy and painting, ceramics, etc. Due to the relatively small number of collectors and connoisseurs, the cognitive ability cannot keep up, so that the identification is more difficult, and the recognition is more picky and stricter. That's why I've always felt that the ones who carve seals are not necessarily worse than those who draw and write!"

Speaking of this, Gao Qianqian was already a little choked: "As an engraving seal that developed earlier than calligraphy and painting, it will be replaced by computers in modern times, which is really a sadness, I want to ask you, if you are asked to buy printed paintings, will you buy them at a high price?"

"Of course not, who would pay a high price for prints, unless the brain is funny. ”

"This big brother said a lot, that's what it means, carving seals is also a skill handed down by our ancestors, a culture, an art, it's hard to imagine that people will take the seal carved out by the computer to stamp when they paint in the future, as if the inside of a delicious dish is fried with ground, ditch, oil, don't you feel disgusting?"

"Well said! Well said! Do you know why I didn't bother to bargain with you just now? Because seals have a price, art is priceless, I guarantee that the seals you buy back from here are definitely worth appreciating, even if you don't understand the art of carving seals, I believe you have also discovered it, this girl's level is absolutely a must, if she becomes famous, will her works not appreciate? If not, after three years, as long as the things are in good condition, I will take back the original price!" Zhang Tianyuan appropriately interjected.

If Gao Qianqian's words made them feel a little guilty, feel disrespectful to their ancestors, and feel the fluctuations in their hearts, then Zhang Tianyuan's words were the final medicine that directly prompted them to make a decision.

Because if such a clause is added to the contract, they are not afraid of depreciation at all when they buy things, and they are not afraid of losing money.

If Gao Qianqian's works appreciate in value after three years, they will naturally be happy, if they don't, they can still return, there has never been such a good thing in the world, do you think they can not be happy......?
