Chapter 2 Comparing Arrows
"Good archery!" The middle-aged man clapped his hands and applauded, and offered another arrow to Liu Yan to practice his hands.
Liu Yanzhi presented the bow with both hands and said with a smile: "It's ugly." ”
The middle-aged man said: "If you want to be ugly, then we won't live, this bow has a pull of two hundred catties, it is an out-and-out hard bow, and it is purely an ornament in the store, except for you, no one can really pull it apart." ”
Liu Yanzhi nodded, he understood that the owner of the archery hall in front of him was the owner, but he didn't mean to continue talking, his mind was on Zhen Yue, but the boss saw the jade wrench on his right thumb at a glance, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Your equipment is high-end enough, Jade Wrench, can you lend me to open your eyes?" The boss said.
Liu Yan took off the wrench and handed it over, the boss took it carefully, played with it, couldn't put it down, and said with emotion: "I have seen some things, but this kind of jade is the first time I have seen it, dare to ask you whether this wrench is handed down by the ancestors or ......."
"Someone else sent it." Liu Yanzhi replied simply.
"Then your friend is really generous." The boss was surprised, he was knowledgeable, and estimated the price of the jade wrench, at least 100 million yuan, which is still priceless, if you really want to get it at auction, no matter how high the price can be auctioned.
"My friend's house has quite a lot of these things, not rare." Liu Yanzhi's face of the Empress Dowager Cixi appeared in his mind, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The boss returned the wrench to him, took out his business card and presented it: "Make a friend, I am quite famous in our Omijiang entertainment circle, and everyone who can afford me calls me a brother." ”
Liu Yan glanced at the business card and read: "Zou Yijun, chairman of the Omijiang Collection Art Association." ”
The boss smiled heartily: "The title of fooling people is just playing, what do you call it?" ”
"My name is Liu Yanzhi, and I work in Antai."
"Oh, in which department? I know your party very well, and we had dinner together last week. Zou Yijun was very interested in talking, but Liu Yanzhi had no match, and looked in the direction of Zhen Yue from time to time.
"Bringing a friend?" Zou Yijun observed his words, and after getting a positive answer, he walked over and called the coach and Zhen Yue over, the coach respectfully called the first brother, and then stood aside, Zhen Yue also knew him, but it was Mr. Zou who shouted.
"Officer Zhen is free today." Zou Yijun said, "If you like it, come and play, I'll ask you to get an annual card when you go back, and the next fire inspection, I have to trouble you." ”
Zhen Yue smiled and said I don't dare to ask for it, this is discipline.
Zou Yijun is just joking, even if he is a bribe, he will not use the annual card, he proposed that everyone have an archery competition, with a colorful head.
"This is a bet, a prize for first place." Zou Yijun took out a pendant of mutton fat white jade, the jade quality is warm, the carving is exquisite, and the value is definitely expensive.
The coach said: "Brother Yi, don't tease us, who doesn't know that you are a famous hundred-step Yang, and I am not enough to look at you from the provincial archery team." ”
Zou Yijun said: "I don't participate, customers and coaches in the museum today can participate." ”
When the coach heard this, he was overjoyed and eager to try, as if this pendant was already in his pocket.
Zou Yijun said: "Xiao Wang, don't be complacent first, there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world." ”
Coach Wang pouted: "Except for you and Ji Yuqian, we Omi play with bows and arrows, and I really haven't served anyone." ”
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the distance, and the staff ran to report: "First brother, Mr. Ji is here." ”
Zou Yijun said with a smile: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, there is a lively scene today." ”
It was the idol in the hearts of thousands of girls, Ji Yuqian, the domineering president of Future Technology, who and Zou Yijun were old acquaintances, came over to shake hands and say hello, and saw that Zhen Yue was also there, smiled and said hello, but turned a blind eye to Coach Xiao Wang and Liu Yan.
Zhen Yue's heart was pounding, she didn't expect to meet an idol in the archery hall, this is probably the arrangement of fate.
As soon as Zou Yijun said that he would temporarily organize an archery competition, Ji Yuqian laughed: "First brother, if you want to talk to me, I will say it clearly, okay, as you wish, I will participate!" Go back and find a nice box to put the pendant up, and I'm going to borrow flowers and offer the Buddha to one of the ladies present. ”
Zhen Yue blushed suddenly.
Zou Yijun said: "We have to talk about it first, what if you lose?" ”
Ji Yuqian said: "My Hetian jade Ruyi, haven't you already been salivating three feet long, if I lose, Yu Ruyi will be transferred to you." ”
Zou Yijun said: "Mr. Ji is refreshing, let me introduce you, this is Liu Yanzhi of An Tai, I saw his archery skills just now, and he is on par with you, you have to be careful." ”
Ji Yuqian looked at Liu Yanzhi at this time, and smiled: "What bow do you use?" ”
"He's using a traditional bow, this one." Zou Yijun took the hard bow and showed it to Ji Yuqian.
"Then I will also use a traditional bow, so as not to call me a bully." Ji Yuqian talked and laughed freely, free and easy, completely treating this opponent as nothing, Liu Yanzhi didn't care, but when he saw Zhen Yue's affectionate eyes, his heart was not very comfortable.
At the beginning of the game, there was a knockout round, and all the customers who were in the fun were brushed down in the first round, leaving only Liu Yanzhi, Ji Yuqian, and a few coaches who did not give up.
Ji Yuqian used a treasure of the archery hall, an English longbow made by ancient methods, the whole of the bow body is made of yew wood, the length of the bow reaches one meter eight, the bowstring is made of sheep intestine tanning, the pulling force is eighty pounds, not much weaker than the classical Chinese bow used by Liu Yanzhi, every time he pulls the bow and releases the arrow, it arouses the applause of the onlookers, and Zhen Yue is even more red-slapped.
Liu Yanzhi watched coldly, and found that this President Ji still has some real skills, and being able to pull out the English longbow shows that his arm strength is amazing, and every arrow hits the bull's-eye, such a person can be regarded as a marksman in ancient times.
The coaches used compound bows and recurve bows made by modern technology, with arrow stands and sights, as well as pulleys to enhance the pull, which was obviously invincible, not to mention that they couldn't win at all, after the second round, there were only two players left who used traditional bows, Liu Yanzhi and Ji Yuqian.
The two glanced at each other, feeling a lot of sympathy.
The venue of the archery hall can no longer accommodate the continuation of the competition, Zou Yijun suggested that another place continue, so everyone took a car to the equestrian training ground in the suburbs, which is also Zou Yijun's industry, after a simple rest, the staff has erected six human-shaped grass targets three hundred meters away.
Three hundred meters is already the limit distance for accurate shooting of bows and arrows, Ji Yuqian shot first, he inserted twelve arrows in the grass in front of him, put on leather armor, picked up the longbow, took a deep breath, and fired loosely after a brief aim, a minute later, the twelve arrows in front of him were empty, the arrows were not missing, all of them hit the target, and it was the position of the head, and then he smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Liu Yanzhi.
"Li Guang was reborn, Hua Rong was reborn, it's just that." Zou Yijun praised from the bottom of his heart, he only knew that Ji Yuqian was a hunting enthusiast and had used a compound bow to hunt bears in North America, but he didn't expect this guy to use a classical longbow so easily.
"That's great." Zhen Yue was elated, her eyes were little stars, Ji Yuqian squeezed her eyes at her and smiled proudly.
Now it's time for Liu Yan to make a straight move, he weighed the situation, if he wants to beat Ji Yuqian, he has to play some new tricks, a few thoughts flashed in his mind, and he vetoed it again, and suddenly a neighing came into his ears, and when he looked back, it was an equestrian who was leading a horse passing by.
"Can I borrow a horse?" Liu Yan said straight.
"Absolutely." Zou Yijun immediately arranged, not much effort staff brought a sturdy horse, the saddle was complete, Liu Yanzhi took the bow and arrow and turned over the horse, clamped the horse's belly, and the horse moved forward, first ran in the field to warm up, and then accelerated to gallop, sitting on the bumpy horseback with a bow and arrows, the arrows were like meteors catching the moon, only to hear the sound of breaking the sky, and twelve arrows were pierced on the grass target, and they also hit the head.
This is an authentic mounted archery, and it is more than ten times more difficult to launch from a fixed position!
Ji Yuqian was convinced, waited for Liu Yan to roll the saddle and dismounted, and quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hand: "The horse is made by Lu Fei, the bow is like a thunderbolt, you shoot too well, I am willing to bet and lose." ”
Liu Yanzhi is not a hypocritical person, and shook hands with Ji Yuqian and said: "Mr. Ji's archery skills are also very good, and he will give up." ”
When shaking hands, Ji Yuqian noticed his jade wrench, but he only glanced at it with a little curiosity and didn't ask.
Zou Yijun said that counted, this pendant of mutton fat jade became Liu Yanzhi's prize, and Liu Yanzhi gave the pendant to Zhen Yue with his hand, of course the latter did not dare to accept it, although she didn't understand jade, but she also knew that Boss Zou carried with him to play with objects, and there were no hundreds of thousands of things that could not be brought down.
"Let's sit down for a while and drink tea, I'll arrange dinner, Mr. Ji can let someone bring Yu Ruyi, and I'll transfer it to you." Zou Yijun couldn't help but say, he had to pull everyone to have dinner together, Zhen Yue was a little conflicted, after all, the relationship had not reached this level, but seeing that Ji Yuqian agreed, she also nodded and agreed, Liu Yanzhi naturally followed Zhen Yue, and she stayed with him.
Near the equestrian training ground is Zou Yijun's leisure club, with small bridges and flowing water, green grass, white walls and gray tiles in Jiangnan style, even the waiters are carefully selected, everyone sits in the water pavilion, sipping fragrant tea, chatting about the world.
Ji Yuqian and Zou Yijun are both business elites, the former is a leader in high-tech enterprises, and the latter is engaged in real estate development.
"Zhen Yue, who do you think is older than me or Mr. Zou?" Ji Yuqian asked with a sly smile.
"Well, you are about ten years younger than Mr. Zou." Zhen Yue replied, this is also a reasonable answer that a normal person would make, because Ji Yuqian is obviously a young man in terms of appearance, body shape, dress, and mental state, while Zou Yijun is an antique Chinese dress, hanging a jade pendant, holding a bracelet, and a standard middle-aged Confucian businessman's image.
"Hahahaha, in fact, he is half a year younger than me." Ji Yuqian laughed proudly, "How old do you guess I am this year?" ”
Zhen Yue giggled, she had already read Ji Yuqian's information, this man was forty years old, but he looked like he was twenty-seven or eighteen years old, she said to his liking: "Twenty-five at most." ”
"Haha, I was born in 77, I'm forty years old, call uncle." Ji Yuqian's favorite game is to let others guess his age, and he never gets tired of it.
Liu Yanzhi was silent, no one asked him how old he was, in fact, he was also forty years old.
An hour later, Ji Yuqian's staff sent his collection of jade Ruyi, Zou Yijun kept playing with it in his hand, and sighed: "In the end, it is the treasure in the Qing Palace, the real high-grade mutton fat jade." ”
Liu Yan leaned over and took a look, wasn't this the jade Ruyi that Lin Su gave to Shen Xiaohong! Time flies, and when I see the light of day, the owner doesn't know how many times he has changed, and the mutton fat jade is still crystal white like clotted fat.
