Chapter 4 Buying Painting Tools
"Ah, you can draw comics?" Zhou Huimin seemed to hear something very surprised, her little hand covered her delicate little mouth, and there was uncertainty in her tone.
"It's true!" At this time, what else could Zhao Chen say, so he had to continue to make sure.
"That's great, I love painting too, but my mom keeps against it!"
Zhou Huimin is still young in the end, and she doesn't have any scheming, and when she talks about it, she can't help but pout, with a little jealousy, and she looks very cute.
Hearing her say this, Zhao Chen remembered that Zhou Huimin is really talented in painting, and one of her works has won an award at a painting exhibition.
"Can you draw comics? Or do you plan to learn slowly? ”
"Yes, if I was just studying, I wouldn't have come here with my family background, and I plan to use my work to make money to subsidize my family."
"Then you have to come on! If you have the chance, you can let me take a look, and maybe I can give you some construction when the time comes. ”
When Zhou Huimin heard the end, she was suddenly moved in her heart, and she didn't seem to help her mother much, so she subconsciously spoke. After finishing speaking, he realized that he was too negligent, after all, the two of them met for the first time, and they were not even friends.
At this time, Zhou Huimin had already taken Zhao Chen to a large stationery store, which had two floors and an area of at least hundreds of square meters, and people were constantly coming in and out to buy the goods inside.
The entry of Zhao Chen and the others immediately attracted the attention of the salesman, after all, Zhao Chen's clothes were too conspicuous, just like the emperor's new clothes, and they would attract a large number of attention wherever they went.
Fortunately, the salesperson of this stationery store was relatively tall, and he did not despise Zhao Chen because of his clothes and age.
"You two, are you going to buy study tools?"
"No, do you have any of these painting tools here?" Zhao Chen reported a series of names of painting tools in his mouth, and the salesman who listened to it was dumbfounded, and there were a few items that he had never heard of, and the salesman was a little overwhelmed for a while, where did the child in front of him come from, how could he know so many names.
Zhou Huimin also looked at Zhao Chen in surprise, and at this time she finally understood that this boy didn't seem to be lying, otherwise how could she report these names, many of which she had never heard.
"I'm sorry, you have too many tools, I'd better remember it first!" The salesperson seemed very polite, took a notebook from the counter, and began to write it down.
When she had written them all down, she counted them carefully, and there were twenty of them, which made her stunned again.
But soon the salesperson reacted, although her heart was full of doubts, but she was still very dutiful to find the items in the notebook. But even so, she only found most of them in the end, which made her a little anxious.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong? When the saleswoman was in a hurry, a majestic voice suddenly came from behind her, which made her a little overwhelmed, because she could hear the voice of the store manager.
"Manager, there are a few things I haven't found!" The salesperson turned around and looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of her, her voice was a little weak, she was worried that the store manager would fire her for this reason.
"Bring it, I'll see!" The middle-aged man took the notebook in the salesman's hand with a stern face, and when he saw the names that even he felt strange, his face couldn't help but be stunned, this seems to be a special painting tool!
"You've done a good job, you've found everything you need to find! Where's the guest? ”
The salesperson put down her heart, as long as she wasn't scolded, but she immediately brought the store manager to Zhao Chen.
When the store manager saw that it was Zhao Chen who bought these painting tools, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but the good Su zhì made him react quickly, and asked with a little uncertainty: "This Ah Zai, these are all you want to buy?" ”
"Yes, uncle!" Zhao Chen nodded, he could see from the salesman's attitude towards the middle-aged man, this middle-aged uncle was the manager of this store. As for the title of Ah Zai, it is a unique title for teenagers.
"Hey, what are you buying these for? Sorry, I shouldn't have asked this. The middle-aged man obviously felt that he was a little abrupt, and he shouldn't ask someone like this, even if that person was just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy.
"It's okay, it's just for drawing comics, I wonder if I have found all the tools I need?"
"Drawing comics? This industry has done well in recent years. However, I can only get most of the painting tools you need here, but there are still three things missing: Japanese brushes, alcohol-based markers, and airbrushes! If you can, I can help you bring these things over in a few days, what do you think? ”
The middle-aged man reported the three things that were missing in the notebook and said in a consultative tone. Even he himself couldn't understand why he would talk to this young man in such a tone, could it be just that this young man was precocious, but it didn't make sense.
"Yes, I'll pack the other tools first! I'll come back in a few days to pick up those three things. Is it necessary to pay a deposit for this, the three things of the order? Zhao Chen is quite satisfied, although there are three things missing, but these three things are not very important to him, at most it is a little troublesome when painting.
"The deposit, you still don't need it, you can come and get it when the time comes." Just kidding, even if these three things are imported, they are not worth a few dollars, and the middle-aged man naturally does not look down on this deposit, so as not to be considered distrustful by customers.
After settling the account, Zhao Chen saw that most of the assets were gone, and he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.
The middle-aged uncle's attitude was very good, and for him, the customer was God, so he specially asked the salesperson next to him to wrap and sort out the pile of items, and then put them in a cardboard box and handed them to Zhao Chen.
This box of items is not light, not to mention dozens of catties, most of which are original paper, and the rest are all kinds of pens, erasers, various rulers, ink, watercolor tools, etc., which can be said to be relatively messy; Even Zhao Chen can't support such a heavy box for long, even if he works often, but due to long-term poor nutrition, his body has not fully grown.
"Two, let me drive you!" At this moment, the middle-aged uncle who had been standing next to him suddenly spoke.
Zhao Chen naturally couldn't ask for it, but his eyes were still on Zhou Huimin.
"I don't need to, my house is in the alley in front of me, and I have to go back to practice the piano!" By the way, my name is Zhou Huimin, if you really draw a comic, I can help you taste it when the time comes! ”
Zhou Huimin pointed to an alley not far away, where she had always lived. After finishing speaking, Zhou Huimin realized that she had leaked her mouth, she didn't know what kind of person the boy in front of her was, and how could she let him come to her house. However, Zhou Huimin is a stubborn girl, since she said it, she naturally won't take it back, but she just prayed in her heart that Zhao Chen would not really come to her when the time came.
"You can call me Zhao Chen! After all, I'm going to have to come over in a few days, and my work should be out by then! ”
Zhao Chen suddenly remembered that Zhou Huimin's family background seemed to be similar to his own; He also lost his father at an early age, and his mother was the sole responsibility of the whole family. Of course, Zhou Huimin's mother is more able to make money, at least she can live a worry-free life, but her current situation can only be regarded as food and clothing. Because when Zhou Huimin was still in kindergarten, her mother saw that she had musical talent, so she worked many part-time jobs outside the home, so she bought a piano for her to learn, but she could not afford to hire a piano teacher to teach, Zhou Huimin relied on self-study, and when she was in middle school, she was able to work as a piano tutor to earn living expenses, and obtained the tenth-grade piano qualification. This has to say that she is really a genius, and she can have the achievements of later generations, completely relying on her own talent, which is much stronger than most female stars who only rely on their faces and figures in later generations.
"Okay, Zhao Chen, then I'll go first, goodbye!" Zhou Huimin politely said hello and turned to leave.
"I thought you knew each other before!" The middle-aged uncle was stunned on his face, and when the two introduced themselves to each other, he realized that he had a preconceived idea.
"Uncle, I just asked for directions, but she brought me over, but she did me a great favor and brought you a profit!"
Zhao Chen didn't go to see the middle-aged uncle, but looked at the back of Zhou Huimin leaving, with a heartfelt smile on his face.
"That's good, that girl just now is not only beautiful, but also has such a good heart, which is rare in us, you have to hurry up and seize the opportunity, if you miss this time, it will be difficult to meet next time."
Zhao Chen glanced at the middle-aged uncle strangely, as if he was knowing him for the first time, and then said a sentence that made the middle-aged uncle fall down: "I didn't expect the uncle to have a young heart, it's really rare, all the beauties along the street, you have to seize the opportunity, if you miss this time, it will be difficult to meet next time." ”
