Chapter 16 A Thousand Words

Liao Haode's father was born in a scholarly family in Jiangnan, and before the liberation, he worked in the Ministry of Education of the Nanjing Government, and he also had some contacts with these celebrities in the calligraphy and painting circles of the Republic of China.

Liao Haode is very familiar with Zhang Daqian, and in the 70s, he once visited him with his father, and admired this old man who was called "Picasso of the East" by Westerners.

It's just that Zhang Daqian was already suffering from eye disease at that time and could no longer paint, and after the death of the old man in 83, Liao Haode also sighed.

No matter what era it is, the calligraphy and paintings of Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian are hard to find, and even the calligraphy and paintings that are scattered among the people are mostly cherished and collected.

So Liao Haode never thought that he could see the calligraphy and painting of the two in this deep mountain area, and there was a famous title to the old Taoist priest in front of him, Liao Haode's surprise was even more extraordinary.

You must know that it is not very difficult to ask for calligraphy and painting, Zhang Daqian and Qi Baishi have also made a living by selling paintings, but it is not easy to ask the two to write a gift inscription.

Not to mention anything else, based on these two calligraphy and paintings alone, Liao Haode can conclude that the old Tao in front of him is definitely not an ordinary person, and there are probably few people in this world who can call those two brothers and sisters.

Seeing Liao Haode's knowledge, Lao Dao couldn't help but get up again, glanced at Ye Tianhou, and said: "This word was written by Zhang Daqian's kid, I don't want to stuff it to me, these poor and sour literati, they give people calligraphy and paintings at every turn, in those years, it is better to give some ocean benefits......"

When Lao Dao said this, he completely forgot that he was also a talented person, as the saying goes, things gather people by like, otherwise he would not have become close friends with these two.

"Ocean? This old guy is a terrible thing......"

After hearing the words of the old Taoist, Liao Haode's hands holding the cloth curtain of Daqian calligraphy couldn't help but tremble a few times, and almost didn't fall to the ground.

You must know that in 1925, when Zhang Daqian was in 1925, a painting could be sold for 20 yuan, and now if it is placed overseas, such a painting can be worth at least tens of thousands of dollars, and it is not an exaggeration to call it "a thousand gold".

"Alright, little leaf, put all these things together......"

Seeing that Ye Tian was still churning around in the box, Lao Dao couldn't help but say: "Wait for Lao Dao to drive the crane west, these objects are all yours, what are you tossing?" ”

"Hehe, Master, dare you really change houses with this thing? Since tomorrow, I have been learning calligraphy and painting appreciation with you......"

Ye Tian is a clever person, after seeing Liao Haode's expression, he didn't know that these calligraphy and paintings that looked a little old were treasures, and he asked Liao Haode to pass the word, and carefully covered the box.

After Lao Dao heard Ye Tian's words, he glanced at Liao Haode, who was reluctant next to him, and scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, Ming'er, you don't have time, you can solve the trouble you caused, you can solve it yourself......"

"Hey, Master, I don't have that much ability, and you have to be old enough to do this......"

Ye Tian's little head shook like a rattle, and before he figured out the side effects of the compass-like turtle shell in his brain, Ye Tian didn't plan to use it again to make people look good.

Hearing the conversation between Ye Tian's master and apprentice, Liao Haode, who was originally thinking about Zhang Daqian's calligraphy, finally thought of his intention, and saw that the two shirked each other, and couldn't help asking: "Master, do you know the purpose of my coming here?" ”

Liao Haode returned to China this time to bury his parents together, except for a few relatives in the family who knew, no one else knew, although he knew that Lao Dao was Ye Tian's master, this ability was naturally higher, but he still couldn't help but ask.

"Hehe, the old way can see one or two, but I don't know if what I said is right......"

Although Lao Dao didn't talk to Liao Haode much just now, he still secretly looked at his face, and from Liao Haode's words, he also guessed a few points, and then said: "Liao Jushi, I see that the two corners of the sun and the moon are uneven, presumably because the fate of your parents is thin, and your mother died before her father, this time I returned to my hometown, I should want my parents to be buried together, right?" ”

After hearing Lao Dao's words, Liao Haode showed an excited look on his face, and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, master, please take action, as long as I can find my mother's coffin, I will ...... I'm going to be thankful......"

Seeing Liao Haode's chick nodding like a peck of rice, Ye Tian couldn't help but slander in his heart: "That's a fart!" ”

As the saying goes, the layman looks at the excitement, and the insider looks at the doorway, Ye Tian can see it, Liao Haode has a lot of flaws and information when facing the old way, if the old guy can't see his intentions, then he will live more than a hundred years in vain.

And the old Taoist saying that "the mother dies before the father" is a panacea, which can be understood as "the mother is here, the father dies first", or it can be understood as "the mother is in the father first, and dies", anyway, it will not be wrong.

"Lao Dao is old, this feng shui is long gone, Liao Jushi, please go back......" Just when Ye Tian and Liao Haode both thought that Lao Dao would agree, they didn't think that he would directly refuse.

"Master has fooled people again......"

After hearing Master's words, Ye Tian almost didn't laugh out loud, he had only shown Miao Lao and everyone Feng Shui a few days ago, and now he actually washed his hands in a golden basin, this fortune telling is really unbelievable.

Liao Haode didn't know the truth, and really thought that Lao Dao no longer showed people feng shui, so he hurriedly stepped forward and begged with a frightened face: "Master, old immortal, please also read for the sake of Liao's filial piety, and help me fulfill my father's last wish!" No matter what you ask, as long as Liao can do it, I will definitely agree to ......"

Divination and fortune-telling feng shui is a good opinion, in Taiwan and Hong Kong, there is a large market, from moving to get married and having children, to the opening of the company's location in the market, all of which are inseparable from feng shui.

As a result, in these two regions, the status of Mr. Feng Shui is still very high, and some master Feng Shui physiognomy masters can scare people to death for the price of one shot.

And the Taoist behavior of the person in front of him seemed to far surpass those masters that Liao Haode had seen, so he said what he said to let the other party make conditions.

For cultural people, talking about money may be an insult, but Liao Haode has become a businessman in his bones, and in his opinion, promising heavy profits is also a kind of respect for the old way.

In fact, Liao Haode can also invite people from Hong Kong and Taiwan, but now that the mainland is not fully opened, it may take a year and a half to go through the procedures, so he can't put his father's ashes in front of the hall, right?

"Lao Dao is alone, what's the use of asking for money?"

Lao Dao shook his head, and when he saw Liao Haode's disappointed look, he couldn't help laughing, and said: "Liao Jushi, Lao Dao is old and doesn't want to set foot in the rivers and lakes again, if you can trust my Mai lineage, let the apprentice take a look......"

"Master, I'm not well yet, what if I hurt my vitality again?"

Before the old Taoist words fell, Ye Tian protested, he brought Liao Haode here, he wanted to move the water eastward, this ...... Why did you go back to yourself?

"That's it, master, Ye Tian is still young, and he is sick again, so I bother you to take a look......"

Liao Haode also persuaded from the side, as the saying goes, if you don't have a hair on your mouth, you can't do things firmly, just like people go to the hospital to see a doctor, the outpatient clinic of the old doctor is always crowded, but the door of those young doctors is deserted.

The same is true for fortune-telling feng shui, if you don't believe that Ye Tian and Lao Dao each hold a signboard to stand on the street, no one will take care of Ye Tian.

"It's okay, Xiao Yezi committed a taboo before, and now it's out of the way......"

Lao Dao waved his hand, turned his face to look at Ye Tian with a smile, and said: "Xiao Yezi, this feng shui skill, the master has already taught you all of it, if you want to really become a feng shui master, you need to practice a lot, isn't it a good opportunity now......?"

"I ...... I didn't say I wanted to be a feng shui physiognomy......"

"You are a closed disciple of the teacher, and you are destined to embark on this path in the future!"

Lao Dao didn't think much of Ye Tian's words, this kid has amazing talent, even if he doesn't do it deliberately, he will shine in this industry in the future.

After hearing Master's words, Ye Tian wanted to cry without tears, this old man estimated that he was not sure to find the burial place of Liao Haode's mother, and he actually pushed it all on his own little child.

In fact, Ye Tian didn't guess wrong, Lao Dao was reluctant to go down the mountain, and he was indeed not very sure.

You must know that the ancients said that three years to find the dragon and ten years to point points, Feng Shui Kanyu is far from being as simple as holding a compass and chanting a few spells, let alone looking at Feng Shui Yang Mansion like helping Boss Miao, but it takes a lot of effort.

As for helping people find the shelter of their relatives from many wild graves, it is necessary to deduce the birth date and death time of the parties, which are extremely cumbersome and complicated.

If you hurt your body like this, and secondly, you can't be sure of something, Lao Dao is naturally reluctant to take action.

And letting Ye Tian go is just an excuse for Lao Dao, although Ye Tian is extremely talented, Lao Dao estimates that he can't calculate the burial place of Liao Haode's mother, and naturally there will be no injuries.

After hearing Lao Dao's words, Liao Haode stopped calling any children, looked at Ye Tian and said, "Ye Tian, you can help Grandpa Liao, whatever you want, Grandpa Liao will buy you ......"

Liao Haode's visa in China is about to expire, and if he can't find his mother's burial place, he can only bury his father's ashes alone, even if he comes back to find them in the future, it is hopeless.

"Okay, I'll try, but Grandpa Liao, if you can't find it, you can't blame me......" Ye Tian tilted his little head and thought for a while, and finally agreed.
