Chapter 70: Painting the Boat
"That's right, I have my own painting boat in this Qingqi, you can be my painting boat. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Yan Ran said with a smile.
Close to the lake, there are a lot of Qingqi like Yan Ran's, Yan Ran's is relatively large, and it is not surprising that there is a painting boat.
Qin Anbei nodded and agreed.
"Tianze is also going to make a painting boat." Tianze, who was sitting next to him, said innocently.
"You're everywhere!" Yan Ran glared at Tianze.
Tian Ze stuck out his tongue at Yan Ran. Make a grimace, anyway, he can't speak well, and his mother will definitely take him, so Tianze is not afraid of him.
The four of them sat in the private room and ate some melons and fruits, close to the water's edge, the air was much fresher than Qin Anbei's house, and occasionally the wind blew, blowing a few locks of long hair, which was a little more fluttering.
The night is coming little by little, as if someone is holding a huge brush and dipping it in ink diluted several times and tirelessly rendering the canopy black layer by layer, different from the color of black charcoal on rice paper, the black of the canopy is the same color as ivory black, and the black is more transparent and textured.
The blue-black sky is hung with a few shining stars, which is the most beautiful decoration in the mortal world.
A full moon like a golden disk, rising from the junction of heaven and water, smeared a golden edge on the edge of the lake, casting an equally golden reflection in the water, and the water and light met each other, which seemed to illuminate the sky for a few points.
Qin Anbei and the others followed Yan Ran out of Qingqi and came to the ship.
Yan Ran deserves to be a professional Qinglou, and this family is a family that he often visits, and he knows that he is much more generous than others when he looks at his boat.
This painting boat is 156 meters long and 45 meters wide, and the eaves and corners and exquisite four-corner pavilions are gradually taking shape, standing impressively at the bow of the ship. The beauty leans on, and the dragon pillar ...... The relief dragon and auspicious clouds on the dragon pillar are buckled layer by layer, and the layers are staggered, and the carving is so fine that every scale on the dragon body is finely counted. The carved railing at the stern echoes the carvings of the cabin and the bow, and the hull is surrounded by relief auspicious clouds, adding a rich and gorgeous temperament to the whole ship.
The ship was hung with a light gauze curtain, and the evening breeze blew, not a fairy spirit, but a flattery.
Qin Anbei raised her forehead, she knew Yan Ran's taste...... Will definitely choose the most eye-catching red.
All the curtains are the most vivid red, the cornices are painted with gold dust, and the pavilions are surrounded by red lanterns.
There are so many painting boats, and none of them have Yan Ran's painting boats that are eye-catching.
Seeing the surprise in Qin Anbei's eyes, Yan Ran said proudly: "How about it, the master's boat is beautiful!" ”
Qin'an is a little north, but it is a little difficult, and it is the most beautiful and magnificent......
But after all, this is an elegant event, so in order to show their elegance, most of the literati and artists choose to be as simple as Yan Ran, except for the gorgeous hull, and the rest are not as flamboyant as Yan Ran.
Because he was taking Qin Anbei out to play, Yan Ran asked his subordinates not to sell tickets today, and there were only four of them on the empty big boat.
"Your ship doesn't usually have a lot of people." Qin Anbei asked.
"How do you know?" Yan Ran was taken aback, could she be a prophet?
"Most people come here for a good name, but your boat is so flashy that if your boat is ranked first, probably others will just think it's tacky."
"But I think it goes well with my clothes, and I'm not good." Yan Ran said.
Indeed, Yan Ran's clothes are a bright red robe, the inner and outer layers are matched with different shades of red, and the outermost jacket is embroidered with gold thread with peonies, and the big flowers are in full bloom, outlining the most graceful and luxurious appearance, echoing his dark red pupils, with three thousand ink hair, without a trace of tackiness.
Probably not cheesy, just because of the face, Qin Anbei sighed in his heart, this face that is alluring to the country and the city, it can't look ugly in anything, with this flamboyant personality, it is probably a peerless demon.
But his ship was an ordinary ship, and without his peerless countenance, without his arrogant and confident temperament, he could not control such magnificent colors.
Forget it, Qin Anbei didn't plan to tell Yan Ran about this, otherwise it would be of no use except to fuel his narcissism, and he wouldn't change it.
Soon, one after another, the painting boats set sail one after another, starting from the shore, because today is the day of the competition, so except for Yan Ran's boat, the other boats are full of people, looking a little bustling, rubbing shoulders.
Qin Anbei was very glad that Yan Ran had a boat, and she could separate herself from those people, looking at those full painting boats, Qin Anbei felt that she would definitely give up taking the boat, so many people, she would not even be able to breathe.
After a while, a small servant sent over today's evaluation documents.
Yan Ran took it, and their ship also left the port.
Yan Ran opened the scroll, read it, and said to Qin Anbei with a smile: "The organizer is getting more and more stingy, the reward back then was still a famous long sword in the rivers and lakes, but now it has become a fan, why are you so poor." ”
"Fans? Let me see. Qin Anbei said, taking the reward scroll in Yan Ran's hand.
Yan Ran didn't see it, Qin Anbei's gaze suddenly became cold, and there was no tranquility just now, like a black spot before the storm, and his eyes were full of haze.
Her fingers holding the scroll unconsciously forced, grasping the thin piece of paper with some folds, she bit her lower lip with her teeth, suppressed the emotions in her heart, her body couldn't help shaking slightly, her brows wrinkled together, for a long time, slowly stabilized.
She looked up and looked at Yan Ran, scheming in her heart.
Yan Ran felt a chill behind her for no reason, was it too cold on the lake? In the summer, I felt that there was a cool breeze behind me.
"Yan Ran, how about we make a deal?" Qin Anbei's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said.
"What?" Yan Ran thought she was hallucinating.
"How much does your boat make a year?"
"One hundred thousand taels." Yan Ran said casually.
This painting boat is not the income of the Qinglou under his head, after all, this kind of Qingqi can't make much money, it's just for Yan Ran to have fun, if you want to make money, you still have to rely on those formal Qinglou, after all, that kind of place is a lot of money overnight.
"How about I help you earn 200,000 taels a year, at least for three years?" Qin Anbei said with a smile, his eyes narrowed into a line with a rare smile.
Yan Ran's heart suddenly felt a hint of crisis...... This situation only happened when he was in danger, why did he feel this way now for no reason?
"What are your conditions? Even if he was crazy, he didn't believe that Qin Anbei would give him such a big benefit for nothing.
