Chapter 549: The Signboard Shop Owner's Request
"Hehehehe...... don't hide from Bi Gongzi, I have opened this shop for more than ten years, and I have seen a lot of celebrity handwriting, but they are all copied by some young people, outsiders don't know how the handwriting of this copy is different from what everyone writes, but it can distinguish one or two of them, and it is different from others in the strength of the pen alone." The shopkeeper said, carefully examined the note in his hand, and continued: "The fifth prince is a person who practices martial arts, who can't help it if he is good at swordsmanship, and the words written by the prince naturally have three points of sword energy, but there will be no trace of sword energy on the handwriting of the copy, so after looking at it, I will know that these three words are written by the five princes!" ”
Listening to his words, I also have to admire, as the saying goes, interlaced lines are like mountains, if there is no ten or eight years of experience accumulation, it is impossible to recognize this is the handwriting of the fifth prince just by looking at it, what is this called? That's what an expert is!
The shopkeeper raised his head and looked at me, his face showed a little indescribable embarrassment, and only after a moment did he speak: "Bi Gongzi, I have a reluctant request below, I don't know if Bi Gongzi can be satisfied?" ”
"The shopkeeper, please tell me something!" I said casually.
The shopkeeper looked at the note in his hand and said quietly: "I wonder if this note can be given to me after the signboard requested by Bi Gongzi is completed......?" Without waiting for me to speak, he continued: "Don't misunderstand Bi Gongzi, I just like the ink treasure of the five princes, if you can't do it, you can make a signboard for Bi Gongzi for free, and it will be regarded as bartering." ”
I didn't say anything to him, and I totally understood his feelings. It's like a person who encounters something he likes, even if the price is expensive, he will spend money to buy it, even if it is bankrupt, so I was not surprised at all by the shopkeeper's words, but I pondered the weight of these three words in my heart.
To be honest, in fact, I still dare not use these three words to exchange for signboards, since the five princes are willing to leave Mobao, it also means that he knows that I really want him to give words, if he knows that I use these three words in exchange for a shop signboard, maybe I will not leave me Mobao in the future, besides, calligraphy and painting have always had a lot of room for appreciation. Can now be replaced with a deck of signboards. Maybe I'll be able to change to another store tomorrow!
I looked at the shopkeeper in front of me with an expectant face, and asked softly and mysteriously, "The shopkeeper may be able to see the relationship between Zai Xia and the Fifth Prince?" ”
The shopkeeper listened to my question, couldn't help but look me up and down, and I hurriedly made an unfathomable gesture when I saw this. The shopkeeper's face changed. couldn't help but say: "Bi Gongzi is ......?" ”
"Exactly." I don't care what comes to his mind. interrupted his words and nodded slightly, pretending to respond profoundly.
"It's really offensive here, and I hope Bi Gongzi will forgive me!" The shopkeeper nodded at me. Immediately, he saluted me, and there was a bit of timidity in his tone.
I smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.
The first step in pretending to be a big-tailed wolf is to make others think that you are mysterious, even if it is a fox and a fake tiger, you have to pretend to be a person, so that others really think of themselves as some big shots, only in this way will there be weight when you start talking about things, I don't know who the shopkeeper in front of me regards me, just by looking at my timid eyes, I can see that he must have regarded me as a prince and nobleman who visited in a micro-service, even if it is not a prince and nobleman, it is also their family, I simply pretended to go down.
"Dare to ask how big a store signboard Bi Gongzi wants to make?" The shopkeeper saw a faint smile on my face, and knew that my personality would not be too violent, and since I had come to ask for a plaque, I would not mention the note now.
"Just use the finest wood in your shop to make a signboard two and a half meters long and eighty centimeters wide." I said casually.
"Two meters five? Eighty centimeters? The shopkeeper looked at me puzzled.
"Uh...... I mean, long is...... An eight-foot, three-foot-wide signboard. Seeing this, I hurriedly calculated in my mind before explaining.
"Good boy Bi." At this time, the shopkeeper looked humble, which made me a little uncomfortable.
"What's that...... I have to say again, I'm in a hurry to get this plaque, and it's best to pick it up early tomorrow morning. I added.
"...... this?" The shopkeeper's face became a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he gritted his teeth and nodded: "Since Bi Gongzi is in a hurry, then let the craftsmen and masters rush to work overnight, and it will definitely be done early tomorrow morning." ”
"That's good!" I nodded, "To the shopkeeper, I don't know how many silver taels this signboard has?" ”
"...... this?" The shopkeeper looked at me with a look of embarrassment.
Seeing this, I hurriedly comforted: "The shopkeeper said that it doesn't matter, although I have a close relationship with the five princes, but I can still afford to give this silver tael." ”
"No, no, no, that's not what I mean!" As soon as the shopkeeper heard my words, he immediately waved his hand, looked at me and said timidly: "Actually, this plaque doesn't cost much silver, so it should be given to Bi Gongzi." ”
"For me?" I was stunned when I heard it, and I couldn't help but say.
"Exactly." The shopkeeper nodded again.
Looking at the look on his face, I immediately understood what he meant, he still wanted the note in my hand! To be honest, the shopkeeper in front of me has a simple appearance, although I don't know how to face each other, but I can also see that he is honest and loyal, this kind of person has no villain's mind, and he can be regarded as a gentleman, my heart moved, and he looked at him with a smile and said: "This note in the next hand is completely afraid to give it to the shopkeeper, otherwise it will make the five princes angry, but for the sake of the shopkeeper who likes the five princes so much, it is better for him to help the shopkeeper ask for a pair of inks, what do you think?" ”
"Bi Gongzi is willing to ask for a pair of ink treasures for the next?" The shopkeeper listened to my words with disbelief in his eyes.
"Exactly." I bowed slightly.
"That'...... That...... I really don't know how to thank Bi Gongzi! The shopkeeper got up and gave me a big salute, and he almost knelt on the ground and kowtowed to see his momentum.
Seeing this, I got up and helped him up, and said with a smile: "Why does the shopkeeper need such a big gift, it's just a trivial matter in the next eye, but I have to ask the shopkeeper to bother with the store's sign!" ”
"It must be ......!" When the shopkeeper heard my words, he nodded busily.
Now that the shop sign is settled, I don't need to stay here, as long as I come early tomorrow morning to pick it up. I got up and said to the shopkeeper, asked for his name, and walked out of the shop.
On the way back, I was in a good mood, this trip was not in vain, a pair of store signs did not cost a penny not to say, but also let the shopkeeper owe me a big favor, hehe......, this thing of pretending to be a big tail wolf really makes people feel comfortable, I can pretend to be more in the future!
"Bi Daxia......!" Just as I walked back leisurely and happily, a crisp shout suddenly came from behind me, this shout was a little familiar, but for a moment I couldn't remember where I heard it, but there was only one person who could shout my three words in this world, I turned around and looked at the voice, only to see two familiar figures running towards me - it was Chen Bo and his scholar Xiaoqiang.
"Brother Chen, why are you here?" I looked at him in a little surprise and asked, Chen Bo was dressed in brocade clothes as always, and he was holding a folding fan in his hand, and he knew that Lu Dao was a disciple of a rich and noble family.
"I'm just shopping here with nothing to do, by the way, Bi Daxia, why are you here alone? What about Hong Qi's predecessors? Chen Bo looked at me with a smile and asked.
"My master, he...... Not in the capital for the time being. I said casually.
"Bi Daxia, since you have met it, it is fate, why don't I invite Bi Daxia to tea?" Chen Bo looked at me respectfully and said.
"Brother Chen, I still have something to do in the future, so I can't accompany you to tea." I said apologetically.
"Bi Daxia is in trouble?" Chen Bo looked at me suspiciously, "I don't know what happened to Bi Daxia?" Can you help? ”
"To tell you the truth, I opened a barbecue shop with my brother in this capital, which has been being arranged in the past two days, and it will be open tomorrow!" Anyway, Chen Bo is not an outsider, and he has the right to advertise, I didn't even think about saying it casually.
"Oh? Bi Daxia bought a store in this capital? When Chen Bo heard this, his eyes couldn't help but glow a little, and it could be seen that he was quite proficient in business.
"I don't know much business here, but my brother has a good hand of roasted meat."
"In that case, can Bi Daxia take it with him to take it down?"
"Naturally." I nodded.
