He thought for a moment: "There are about a dozen in Wu Village. ”

Su Xi calculated in his heart: "That's it, you help me find three more painters, and the four of you will paint the things I asked you to paint, and on the day of the Lantern Festival, I will hang them outside." ”

Meng Qing was a little puzzled: "Old man, how many lanterns do you want to paint, do you need the four of us to paint for you?" ”

Su Xi frowned slightly: "No matter how much, I need the four of you to push other businesses to paint my paintings in the past few days before the Lantern Festival, I heard that the people of Wucun are very ingenious, and painting is a basic skill, but I am an old man, old eyes are dizzy, and the painting is not good, so I can only ask you to paint." Don't worry, I can't do without you, you just need to draw according to my request. ”

"This ......" Meng Qing hesitated a little, not very steady.

Su Xi couldn't help but say: "Now I'm also a celebrity in this witch village, if you help me paint, maybe I can help you attract guests?" When you say that you once painted a foreigner who was treated by a witch doctor, everyone had to rush to buy your painting. ”

Su Xi's words succeeded and strengthened Meng Qing's still wavering heart, after all, this is a good reason to make money, the enthusiasm of the people in the village for Su Xi, Meng Qing also saw it, and he really believed what Su Xi said.

As a result, the two met successfully.

The rest of the time, during the day, Su Xi told the storyline he had made up in front of Meng Qing and the other three painters, arranging who was responsible for painting what, and what he wanted; In the evening, Su Xi was in the inn's room, continuing to write the story, and she wanted to make sure that the story was attractive enough to attract the attention of the patriarch while causing a sensation in Wu Village.

Now that there are so many stories about the relationship between immortals and mortals, Su Xi has enough capital to think of any one, but it depends on the degree of her condensed essence.

She didn't think to paint an entire street, twenty-eight lanterns, not boring to admire, not only to develop the story to a high tide, but also to properly capture people's interest, arouse people's curiosity and hope to continue to appreciate.

This is the purpose of Su Xi.

It is also the purpose of the four painters she found, one painter, it can't be completed at all.

The Lantern Festival is coming soon, and Su Xi and the four painters, in a hurry, also painted twenty-eight lanterns successfully, the development of the storyline, narration, dialogue or something, Su Xi once took a calligraphy class in modern times, and practiced when he was in the Hou Mansion, but he was not blind in vain.

When she added all the storylines, the four painters read them one by one, and couldn't help but look at this old man with admiration, originally thought that she was an illiterate person, and they were really tired these days, but after seeing the results, the four people had to throw themselves to the ground with the five bodies that he admired.

Meng Qing leaned over and asked on behalf of the three painters: "Old man, did you come up with this method yourself, and you also came up with this story by yourself?" ”

Su Xi was not happy when he heard it: "What, do I look like I haven't read a book?" Where can this little trick be difficult to defeat me, I have just shown my hand to make you so admired, if I show more skills, don't you want to worship me as a teacher? ”

Narcissism requires capital, and if you have the ability, it is not called narcissism, it is called self-confidence, and if you don't have the ability to say big things like this, it will be defined as narcissism.

The eyes of the four painters looking at Su Xi have fully proved that Su Xi's self-confidence is not inflated for no reason, but the most appropriate evaluation of himself.

Meng Qing said a little embarrassedly: "We in Wucun have always respected and admired capable people, and any craft is very precious to us, so, old man, if you are really so talented, you don't have to wait for us to come to worship you as a teacher, I believe that the people of Wucun will rush to come to you to listen to the story when they know about it." ”

Another painter hurriedly answered, "Maybe the patriarch will summon you because of this." You must know that in Wu Village, there are absolutely only a handful of people who can enter the patriarch's mansion every year. If you really go, it will be even more famous in Wucun, and all these paintings we have painted will be even more valuable. ”

"Then we are really lucky for three lives." The other painters sighed from the bottom of their hearts, and from their faces, Su Xi saw sincerity, not ridicule and schadenfreude.

"No, I am fortunate to cooperate with you."

Su Xi said equally sincerely. Indeed, it is not a feat to be able to complete the most primitive comic book about the love story of the gods here with the ancestors of ancient times and experts who are very good at painting, and Su Xi does not deny that she has a great sense of achievement.

On the way to find Jing Hao, Su Xi has grown a lot, and gradually adapted to the sinister rivers and lakes here. The ups and downs in the modern shopping mall are only about the way of survival in life, and what he is familiar with is only the various strategies for doing business, and here, Su Xi has experienced more about the way of survival of life, wealth, but it has become secondary.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, the market is very lively, and people are carefully choosing where to hang their lanterns.

Because they were to be hung on the main street for the patriarch to admire, the lanterns crowded the lanterns, and there were too many to count.

Su Xi is also looking for the best position, not to be able to squeeze his own lanterns because of other people's lanterns, lest he bury any of the twenty-eight lanterns, and let the patriarch miss any of them, that is, he will lose a storyline, which will make a jump in the development of the story, and it will also lead to a decrease in attractiveness.

Just when Su Xi had not yet landed, Meng Qing took the initiative to find Su Xi.

"Old man, you can hang the twenty-eight chapter lamps in our shop, there is absolutely enough space, and it is very eye-catching."

When Su Xi heard this, he was overjoyed, this was really a great opportunity.

However, Su Xi also knew in his heart that although this was a good opportunity to show his story, it was also a good opportunity to show the works of these painters.

On this night, the market is becoming more and more lively, on the one hand, because the most exciting part of the Lantern Festival is coming, that is, the patriarch sits all the way through the main street, greets the people of Wu Village, and admires the lanterns of each family.
