Chapter 32 The Hidden Antique Shop
Wen Cheng led two foodies, one in front of the other, and one after the other, and went to the county temple.
The two did not dare to stand shoulder to shoulder with Wen Cheng, and Wu Liang would not be side by side with a beggar.
So, without a teacher, he learned from the military camp of the later generations that "two people in a row, three people in a column" walked on the streets of Han'an County.
can't go too fast, Wen Cheng is worried about the two goods behind him, either prolapse or miscarriage...
…… Wen Cheng estimated that these two goods were more likely to be miscarried: it was about five months after seeing them.
If at this time, when you meet Maitreya Buddha, the Buddha wants to ram the goods with the two behind you, and make a kiss and face salute, both sides have to stand on the street, and each starve for ten days and half a month before making plans.
…………
When I arrived at the prefectural temple, I said hello to Menzi
Wen Cheng asked Wu Liang to go in, and asked the officials of the government department to deign to move to the small courtyard of the Wen family and drink a glass of wine after they were on duty tomorrow.
The reason is: Wen Cheng's hen laid eggs...... According to Han'an County, Wen Po, who has 30 years of experience, said that this is a three-yellow egg! And there are two at a time, auspicious, it is worth celebrating!
…… The hen lays three yolks, which is just a random excuse. Wen Cheng knows that his face is not big enough: with a casual message, he can invite his boss and colleagues to his own courtyard.
How can you dare to let the official carry the gift and run to Ru Zhihan's house to drink the muddy wine and eat the roasted meat?
What does it matter to me that the hen of your house lays eggs? It's not my species.
That Wu Liang added: Don't accept gifts! According to Yin Shamen, this kind of auspiciousness should not be contaminated with copper smell, lest the heavens dislike it.
Hey... This is in line with the principle of unity, common progress, and easy to carry out daily work.
Being high on the ground is not conducive to improving future work performance! If you want to take some leisure, you can also go there!
… Wen Cheng and Su Jian waited in an antique shop diagonally opposite the county temple, and Wu Liang went to the county temple to invite officials to the banquet.
…………
In the antique shop, there is only one guy to scrub and one shopkeeper to dot it. The shopkeeper sat on the Hu table and dozed off, and when he saw Wen Cheng and the two coming in, he ignored it; He opened his eyelids slightly and glanced at it, then closed his eyes again to recuperate.
If anyone thinks that this kind of half-dead, ten days and half a month, it is rare to open a good antique shop once, it will collapse......
- You would be very wrong!
People don't do it at all, they wait for the business of ordinary people!
If there are occasional local tyrants who have just made a fortune and want to buy some antiques to decorate their mansions, others don't mind slaughtering a pig brother; This is not the main business of this kind of antique shop.
It belongs to the "grass and rabbit...... By the way, "thing."
In this antique shop, it only sells its own antiques and "consignment" of cultural toys and calligraphy and paintings in the shop, and does not buy outside objects...... No matter what calligraphy and painting you take, whether it is true or false, how high or low.
If you take the literary play in, the shopkeeper will not look at you, let alone come to taste it - we will not identify the literary play!
Ordinary people, entrusting people to do things, a few copper coins, a few banquets.
When you encounter a matter of entrustment, the stakes are very high, so can you not order the house slaves to carry the copper coins to the house of the powerful with "hey, hey, hey"?
It has always been more than seven catties of copper coins, and a mere 100 copper coins is more than 700 catties, and it is divided into several boxes and baskets.
Even if it is replaced with gold cakes, it is not light, and you may not be able to carry the gold cakes exchanged for hundreds of copper coins.
You carry the gold cake like a laborer......
Believe it or not, Kong Er, the county magistrates, and the county lieutenants can beat you to death!
I can't give a gift, and it's not a waste of wheat rice to live.
…………
Like a rat moving, moving the property into the antique shop in batches is the right way.
People don't take your goods for nothing, no, they also stuff you with a night pot used by Qin Shi Huang, or a commode that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat on, isn't it?
Of course, the commode is very small, and it is said that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used it when he was a child - this is extremely precious, out of print!
As long as the goods moved into the antique shop, it is real; It doesn't matter if the antique is real or not
- Don't worry about these details.
If you don't dare, take the royal object as a family heirloom, that's fine!
The shop also sells the calligraphy of Kong Xianzun, the graffiti of the county lord, and the private collection of the county governor...... his old man's diaper when he was a child;
Wait, you're the thief? No problem, I still have a thief Lord Cao, the grandfather of his old man's grandfather, a broken pottery bowl handed down!
…… It's precious.
What? Broken bowls? On the side of Wanchang Township, there are freshly baked pottery bowls, piled up like a mountain.
But is it commemorative? Is it collectible?
No culture, no taste, no vision... Despise you!
…………
When Wu Liang came out, Wen Cheng left the shop. Ask how things are going? That Wu Liang is also a talent: he once beat himself, the thief Cao Gongfang, who was open-skinned, he also swaggered in, relaying the banquet of Wen Cheng, and did not look at the thief Cao's playful face at all;
Wang Duan and Wang Zuo's officials also went to invite.
Whether to come or not is the matter of the king's officials; Please not please, it is a matter of the attitude of the submission.
Different
Wen Cheng is really not good to enter by himself. Wang Zuo insisted that Qingshan would not let go...... No, it's rooted in the county temple and doesn't move the nest.
Wen Cheng went in to feast his boss and colleagues again, wouldn't that be the old face of Wang Duan in the red fruit land!
Although Wang Duan was highly short-sighted and slapped him in the face, his old man couldn't tell who did it
But he is such a kind person, how could he do such a dirty thing!
Who told us that our three views are so positive! No way, this problem can't be fixed.
Wen Cheng looked up at the sky and felt that in less than two hours, it would be dark, so he led two pregnant women of about three months to rush home.
…………
Back at home, the stove was almost piled up, just waiting to install the stone countertop.
When the countertop was installed, Wen Cheng asked Su Jian to hit the flint...... This thing, Wen Cheng probably won't be able to learn it in his life.
Igniting the stove is to check whether there are any mistakes and try the effect; Originally, it was better to dry in the shade or over low heat, but it was too late, so I couldn't take care of it.
Su Jian stuffed the fire-starting thing into the hearth, only to hear the sound of "whirring" smoke from the chimney; Add firewood and the fire grows stronger...... It's done!
When I used the bellows again, I saw that the fire was extremely violent, and after a while, the iron pot that Wu Gong brought back was filled with steam from half a pot of well water.
Everyone was stunned
"Poof", Niu Er knelt in front of Wen Cheng: "Wenjun, Wenjun, you, can you hand over this stove stacking method to the villain?" ”
That Ma Da, the nerve arc is relatively long, Niu Er finished speaking, only then did he react with a "poof", and knelt in front of Wen Cheng: "Wen Jun, you will grant this immortal means to the two brothers!" Wenjun's great grace, the villain will be remembered forever! The villain will set up an immortal tablet for you, and the incense will continue to kowtow to you every day for generations! ”
After speaking, the two of them did not wait for the text to answer, and kowtowed their heads "bang bang...... The ground of Wen Cheng's house trembled.
…………
You may not understand Niu Er's behavior.
In fact, in our dynasty, the craftsmen of all dynasties and dynasties like to cherish themselves with brooms, and they are self-specialized in their skills.
In ancient times, whether it was carpenters, blacksmiths, carvers, gold and silver jewelry processing...... If you don't work for the master for nothing, and do a few years of free labor, you don't want to learn that craft!
Even if you become a big apprentice, the key nodes of the craft may not be taught to you...... Unless you're his son-in-law or son.
The apprentices had to get up every day, clean the courtyard, make a fire to boil water, and fill the water tank with water.
The master shopkeeper got up, poured the night pot, washed the face, and removed the door panel...... It's all an apprentice's business.
At the end of the day, serving tea and pouring water for the master and shopkeeper, cleaning up the utensils, fetching water for the master to wash at night, and setting up the night pot are all indispensable.
The master and shopkeeper can sit down and drink two glasses of turbid wine to relieve fatigue. You? Squat down and get your turn to serve.
If you make a small mistake, it's a fat beating...... It's over, your parents, you have to rush over to apologize!
In the end, you have learned all the skills, you can go out to make money, you have to buy gifts during the New Year's holidays, and respectfully go to the master to say hello!
Then the master drank the wine you gave him, and taught you: "I want to be back then, the master followed your ancestor to learn art, and he has more eyesight than you!" ...... back then"
- I finally went from a daughter-in-law to a mother-in-law, who do you bully if you don't bully?
Even the artisans until the Ming and Qing dynasties had extremely low status...... But it doesn't delay the master to bully you! How dare you?
Unbelief? Now, you learn how to roast duck and you won't be able to touch the stove for years!
…………
Some people may say: Since you can do it, why don't you go and do your own work? Why do you ask for submissions?
Alas...... Now there are patents, and ancient times are not without rules!
In any era, there are rules for how it operates!
Compatriots who don't pay attention to the rules, haven't you suffered enough losses so far?
Relying on cleverness, you can't go far......
