It's late to go to the street.

It's useless for a long time, the vendors have their own places, and there was still a little vacant position, but the two of them just occupied it, and they haven't carried Shi Hu out of the wooden box, and a candy blower shouted from afar that it was his. This is not home, and the two of them can't find a wooden frame car, and when they returned to their accommodation last night, they walked two or three streets with wooden boxes...... And in this wooden box, it was a stone tiger weighing hundreds of pounds.

When the place of residence comes out, the street in front of the door can't be occupied, and a few hundred catties of Shihu move a few streets to place?

What if you don't swing?

Find a store, even if it sells at a good price, it will backfire, and put it out, not to see if it can be sold, but to see if it is popular.

Dog Chestnut wanted to play tricks and take the candy blower away, but he didn't dare to be blatant, three miles away from home, how could he dare to fight the local vendors, so he just blindly pulled his throat and said to others: "Is your place?" Your place? If only it were yours and we would have made it. If it weren't for you. ”

This is a rogue momentum, but leaving a way for himself to retreat.

He struggled his head and shouted loudly, Li Hu shouted at him, he had already walked a few steps away, ready to talk to others, Li Hu didn't call him, as soon as he used his strength, he lifted the big wooden box over the top, carried it on his shoulders and continued to walk forward, looking for a place to go, he was stumped if he didn't take two steps, the people in front of him did not avoid it, and unlike Dongxia, there was a rule, he had to walk on the left, he couldn't walk, and the box was afraid of being crooked and killed and injured.

Fortunately, the dog chestnut followed, pushed people everywhere to get out of the way, and urgently opened the way: "Let it go." There are hundreds of catties of stone tigers in the box. ”

He knew the weight of the box, and he was afraid that Li Hu would not be able to hold it, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.

However, this morning was the time of the gathering, and people did not listen to persuasion, so he had to squeeze people everywhere to avoid squeezing Li Hu and squeezing people with boxes.

Found a harbor in the waves.

Originally, at the door of the bookstore where they bought books, the vendors left a place for them, and there was no one at each door for seven or eight steps, Li Hu roared: "You people hurry up, rest there." ”

Dog chestnut arrived to catch people, Li Hu had a small open space to stand up, as soon as he arrived, seeing that he was put down, Dog Chestnut was afraid that Li Hu would not be able to stand it, so he wanted to use his back to support it, Li Hu yelled and asked him to get up, he had to hurriedly jump aside, Li Hu just stretched his arms and put the big box on the ground.

Just put it down.

A few people who were driven to the market in this place originally gathered here to eat hot tofu, but just let go, let it go to the road, couldn't stand, and came back again, one person held a bowl of hot tofu to see the strangeness, and said on the side: "Who are you fooling?" This box of stone tigers? If Shi Hu is such a big one, and he adds a thick wooden box, I'm afraid it will cost hundreds of catties. Can it be put down so lightly? What are you selling? Give a look, give a look. ”

Dog Chestnut ignored them, gasped and asked Li Hu: "Are you tired?" It's not flashing, is it? ”

Li Hu answered him, said "no", groped with both hands on the lid of the box for a while, found the buckle, and took it up, it was indeed hay, Shi Hu.

Everyone also had hot tofu in their mouths, and the tofu was steaming, and they watched Li Hu press his waist and stretch out his arms, and shouted for him vaguely: "True Shihu." It's a big one. ”

Between the words, but constantly determined that it was stone, vivid, realistic with markings, a moment of fear after letting, one person was too excited, the tofu block turned into slag and sprayed out, not far away a child is holding a sugar gourd, because of fear of cold, shrunk in the sleeve and waiting for his father, did not expect the tiger head to face him, he cried out with a "wow", closed his eyes and retreated, and even the person with the sugar gourd fell to the ground.

As the child was lifted up by his father and shouted "Tiger", the whole street became a sensation.

With the help of the dog chestnut, Li Hu closed the wooden box again and put Shi Hu on the lid of the box.

Not for anything else, just too similar.

In this world, there have long been stone dragons and stone tigers, lions and elephants, and the nine sons of the Long family, but those things are already accustomed to it, and they don't look like it.

The most significant feature of Dongxia Gongbi is that it is realistic, there are light and dark shadows in the picture, which is the best in the world, and no one has ever applied it to the statue.

Today, it appeared.

Li Hu is not just painting better.

He was born, it is the period of the formation of the Dongxia Gongbi, he began to learn painting at an early age, and it is the period of the perfection of the Dongxia Gongbi, it can be said that he did not take a detour, and the style of painting with the characteristics of the Dongxia Gongbi is to get started, and the freehand is to take into account. The most important thing is that he has really seen a tiger, and it is not a glimpse, Long Liushu calls himself a tiger god, wouldn't he keep one or two in captivity? In his place, the demeanor of the tiger, the appearance of the tiger, and the momentum of the tiger are no longer imagined, but face-to-face, and repeatedly copied. The tigers, in particular, are the largest, toughest, most ferocious, and most numerous of the known species—because the northern jungles are dense, vast, inhabited, and well-fed.

After he colored, even if everyone knew that it was fake and the size was smaller than the real tiger, the vision was still shocked.

No one dared to approach the blasphemy.

The guy at the bookstore heard the commotion outside, and he also stood at the door with a few readers to watch.

The scene was clear in the field of vision, and there was a box at the door, and a tiger was entrenched on the box.

Oh, my God.

The guy originally wanted to drive them away, but after this stunned, Li Hu took the initiative to go up, used the method he realized yesterday, grabbed his shoulders and said, "Brother still remember me?" I bought a book from you two days ago. ”

The man remembered that he was still having fun at the time, and said that this fool really bought two sets of the same books and left.

The guy pointed and asked, "This tiger is yours?" ”

Li Hu was still a little reserved, and said lightly: "Yes." You may not know it, but that set of books teaches how to do it. ”

Dude is stupid.

Is it true or false?

He was anxious to figure this out.

Li Hu coaxed him in a low voice: "Borrow me a place today, and I will say that I learned it from your book, how about it?" If I sell it, I'll sell it. I'll buy you another set of books and invite you to dinner. ”

Li Hu has this hand: eating.

The guy was embarrassed and said, "The door is all blocked." I'm nothing. Our owner...... Maybe I'll come in a while, and I'll have a fair today, business will be good, and his friends will come to the door. ”

Li Hu said: "You just said that you can't drive away." ”

He asked the guy to see, the box was indeed not at the door, but there were more and more people, and gradually the door was blocked by three layers inside and three layers outside.

After the crazy people sighed, they grabbed the dog chestnuts and asked, "Is this for sale?" Is this really stone? ”

Dog chestnut is struggling to cope, and from time to time when others ask how much money, he doesn't know at all, so he turns his head and asks Li Hu again. Li Hu replied: "Eighty taels of silver." ”

Li Hu got down from the bookstore, took down a fist-sized tiger from his belt, and gave it to the big tiger under his legs.

Xiaohu is more refined.

But it's small.

Everyone's eyes were on the big tiger.

No one cares about the fist-sized white-fronted tiger, they all think it is a foil, and they unconsciously ignore it.

Until Li Hu shouted to sù and said, "This big one is made of stone." This small one is made of jade. ”

Someone shouted: "The big one is only eighty taels, and the small one, it's okay to buy it back and tease my baby son." ”

Li Hu smiled: "The small one is eight hundred taels." ”

Because the labor fee is mixed.

Li Hu's price is four times that of twenty taels, and four times that of one hundred and eighty taels and twenty taels combined.

Of course, this is not fair enough for Xiaohu, its four times, the profit is too amazing...... In fact, this is how finished jade objects are generally doubled.

Finally someone said: "This little tiger is in front of the big tiger, that is the difference between the cat and the tiger, eighty taels is expensive, if you are willing to sell fifty taels, I will go back and ask our owner, put the shop to attract popularity." ”

Dog Chestnut knew the cost, and when he saw the thirty taels of earnings, he immediately looked at Li Hu.

Li Hu didn't sell it for money at all.

He replied, "Listen, Mr. said that this tiger can attract popularity. More than? Ward off evil spirits, town house, decorate the study...... It's only eighty taels, which is not high at all. Eighty taels less, not sold. ”

Dog chestnut retracted his neck suddenly.

Still not on sale?

Earn thirty taels and still don't sell?

How much is thirty taels?

Nearly 100,000 dollars.

Li Hu is not for sale yet.

A gentleman who looks sensible.

He spat hot air, leaned forward and looked at it, then gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand, touched it, and exclaimed, "It's polished." He turned around and said, "This is the Golden Tiger." The spot is made of copper. ”

Many people agreed, and he turned around and asked Li Hu: "This forehead is white, what's so important?" ”

Li Hu said: "There are green dragons and white tigers in the world, and this white tiger is rare, but the eyes, jaws, and cheeks of the general tigers are often white tabbys, and the more fierce and fat the tiger, the more white heads, it is said that the long-lived tiger, the white hair will grow to the forehead." We often say that the king of the tigers - the white-fronted insect with hanging eyes refers to the white hair on the forehead. ”

The gentry let out an "oh", as if he had suddenly realized.

There was a hunter in the crowd who had seen a tiger and echoed loudly: "Housheng is right." The tiger was strange, and it was covered in spots, and its face and eyes were white. I can confirm that. The bigger the tiger, the whiter the face. ”

He doesn't need to confirm it.

Li Hu is a person who often sees real tigers. But as soon as he confirmed it, he added a bit of vigor to the tiger, and the clothes on his body were ordinary, and gradually dispersed, but those who looked like rich men were circling around, and some of them even went to break the tiger's teeth to see how many teeth there were, as if looking at the age of the animal...... The readers in the bookstore and the readers who are about to go to the bookstore are all around, strange things.

There are constant bargains.

Someone else said: "Buy a stone lion, a pair is only about 20 taels." It's expensive, it's expensive. ”

There are people coming and going on this street, and some people who ride horses and sedan chairs can't walk here, not only because they can't walk on the road, but they hurry over as soon as they ask about the situation.

There was a woman on a sedan chair, with a maid, and she stopped to see the strangeness, and her family couldn't urge her to leave.

But people are also strange, there are a lot of bargains, but there are no eighty-two mouthfuls that do not pay back, and they want to go up.

Li Hu didn't give up.

The dog chestnut shrank again, and his neck was shortened, so he heard Li Hu say: "We are from Yangjia Village, Yi County, and we came to Baojun, is it easy to transport this tiger?" It's not easy, I just want everyone to see how our masonry is? This is our handpicked selection, our signboard, so will not let a penny. ”

Occasionally, someone picked up the little tiger and exclaimed: "This little tiger is also realistic, even more realistic, it's really jade, this little tiger." ”

Xiaohu has already added four hundred taels.

Li Hu wants to put this one, and the jade in the store can still negotiate the price to seven or eighty percent, and four hundred shots can be said to be enough.

At this time, a voice sounded, asking from afar: "What are you doing in front of the door?" ”

Someone greeted him and called him "Mr. Bao", and then more greetings were called to others, calling Liu Erye, Liu Ergongzi.

A group of four or five came to the front of others in the avoidance of others.

The leader looked familiar, but he was a little anxious, and he stretched out the untimely folding fan in the winter, and Ben Li Hu went: "How do you set up a stall at the door of our house?" ”

Li Hu looked back at the bookstore, clenched his fists apologetically, and replied, "It really wasn't intentional, I didn't expect everyone to come and see it, blocking your shop." If I do sell something, I can compensate my husband. ”

He suddenly recognized: "Oh. Mr. We've met. ”

The gentleman was still saying, "You sell a gadget......

Small?

He wanted to say that you sell a gadget, how can you compensate me, but one side of the eye, not small, didn't say anything, the son next to him rubbed two fat eye bubbles, but he was hitting him, and said, "That kid." Did you forget? ”

Li Hu looked at it, bought his own wrench, and hurriedly hugged his fist: "Liu Langjun." ”

Liu Chang said that he was in a hurry, and slammed into his friend: "Lao Bao." The one who sold me a wrench? ”

He jerked over, gritted his teeth, and said, "Boy." Why don't you run? ”

Li Hu was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "What am I running?" ”

Liu Chang gasped and said, "Then the wrench." The wrench. Where did the wrench come from? ”

Dog Chestnut was a little worried, and was about to come up and explain for Li Hu.

Li Hu stopped him behind him and said softly, "My own." What's wrong? Someone identified it as worthless? ”

Liu Chang said: "Let's not say if it's worth it." What kind of ink painting is surrounded by green clouds, that's nonsense, that's the high-ranking barbarians, take it out, won't it be laughed at? Isn't he treated as a barbarian? ”

Li Hu looked up to the sky and laughed.

Mr. Bao was also surprised and said, "Hey." What are you laughing at? Second Master Liu is not wrong. He turned around and said, "I'm out of sight." ”

Proud again.

The worried dog chestnut pulled Li Hu's clothes behind him.

Li Hu stopped laughing and asked, "Liu Langjun." Do you know where the wrench came about? ”

Liu Chang "sighed", took half a step back, his sleeves were pulled up, and others avoided him, so he said: "You treat me as a local melon seed." The wrench, of course, comes from archery. ”

Li Hu sneered and said, "There are two ways to shoot arrows, do you know. ”

Liu Chang became more and more unbearable, and shouted loudly: "Does the master know? There are people in the family who practice martial arts. ”

Li Hu said again: "The thumb opens the bow, this is the northern shooting method, and the wrench is to protect the thumb, where does the wrench come from, you should be clear, right?" ”

Liu Changren walked around in front of him and said loudly, "Oh. Oh. What's that? ”

The bag Mr. pulled him.

Mr. Bao reminded: "He is suing you that this wrench is from the north." ”

Liu Chang came to his senses, calmed down, and said in amazement: "Yes." Yes. ”

Li Hu said: "The world likes to wrench the finger, that is a good man has the ambition to gallop a horse and bend the bow and shoot the eagle, where does this wrench come from? Can't you understand my wrench? The mountains and rivers are mixed with black and white, the smoke and rain are vast, and the atmosphere is green and refined...... It just reflects the great ambition of the boy to leave a name in history. ”

Everyone present applauded.

Liu Chang looked at Mr. Bao.

Li Hu said again: "What did you say that day? Whether I regret it or not, it's a gentleman's word? Why is it unwilling today? I am also a gentleman, in the future, I will buy it back from you at a high price, but not now, now I have no money. ”

Liu Chang was extremely embarrassed, and repeated: "The mountains and rivers are mixed with black and white, the smoke and rain are vast, and the elegance is green and refined...... It just reflects the great ambition of the boy to leave a name in history. That's right. I'll go home and take a look. Look again. Turning his head, his eyes fell on the big tiger, and he said unconsciously: "This tiger is also yours?" He laughed and asked, "You won't be from out of town, you specialize in selling stones, right?" ”

As he spoke, his eyes couldn't leave the tiger.

In particular, Li Hu and the craftsmen were afraid that the tail would be long and would break, and the mountain stone behind the buttocks was not treated, so they gave it a stable tail.

Liu Chang lit the tiger and said to Mr. Bao beside him, "Brother." You see. Sitting on the ground. There's a rock sitting behind the buttocks. Mr. Bao was also amazed, and he didn't care about blocking the bookstore, he said, "This tiger statue." You just say that this tiger statue is enough, and the momentum has not diminished at all. Look at this look, the skin lines behind this mouth...... It's so true. ”

He looked up and asked, "I don't blame you for blocking the door." Sell it to me. I stayed in the bookstore as an elegant object for people to see. ”

Dog Chestnut stretched out his head from behind Li Hu and said loudly: "Eighty taels." It's not too expensive this time. ”

Liu Chang had already grabbed the front, went to his chest, and said repeatedly: "Brother." Elder brother. You've got to cut your love. This is a sitting tiger. It should be nicknamed the younger brother. ”

He laughed and whispered, "We have a fate." This Baojun came to the monk, do you know the temple? Yes? As soon as that person asked, it was fate. You and I are destined, right? Look at your wrench, broken stones and jade, why did my brother buy it. Fate. It's all fate. ”

Li Hu wondered.

Mr. Bao couldn't grab the big tiger anymore, and when he touched the little tiger, he said "oh" and said, "This is also interesting." I've never seen anything so vivid. ”

The dog chestnut sued sù and said, "That eight hundred taels." ”

Mr. Bao rubbed it and said softly: "The quality of the jade is not very good, but the material is well chosen, eight hundred taels, such a large piece of jade, made because of the material, and exquisite, vivid, but after all, you are selling it on the street, five hundred taels...... I'll give you five hundred taels. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Chang had already copied it from him, and when he saw that there was still a small gold rope, he tied it to his waist, and Mr. Bao was still puzzled and turned his head to look at him.

Liu Chang smiled and said, "Brother." The brother is a tiger, and the brother's grandmother is also a tiger, it's time to celebrate his birthday, and this is also given to the brother, ah, the brother remembers it. ”

Mr. Bao smiled: "Do you want to be big or small?" ”

Liu Chang held back a smile and suddenly said, "I want it all." ”

Mr. Bao reminded: "This jade is not dense enough, nor is it moist enough, if you send it to your grandmother, is it cold." ”

Liu Chang smiled: "There's no way." You said I'll just find a good piece of jade, is it rare for the old man? This little tiger, big tiger, tsk...... I've never seen anything so good. ”

Li Hu's eyes narrowed together.

This guy wants to buy whatever he sees, and he may not regret it if he buys it.

Liu Changyi raised his head and said, "I'll ask for you." If you have something good and come to the master, the master will not lose your money. I'll tell you, you and I are really destined. Ay. As soon as I talk about fate, you turn your head? You want to. Your object, I like it at first glance, isn't it fate? How much does it add up? Eight hundred and eight? Eight hundred and eight, I'll give you eight hundred and eighty-eight...... What do you think? ”

Li Hu stretched out his hand to take Xiaohu back, and said softly: "A gentleman loves talents, and he takes them in the right way." If you want it, Xiaohu can give it to you. He stretched out his sleeves for Liu Chang, and when he saw that Liu Chang didn't know how to stretch, he naturally couldn't touch the price in his sleeves, so he leaned on Liu Chang's ear and said, "Little Tiger, I spent two hundred taels." As long as you make two hundred and twenty taels and make you a friend, you can't regret it for a while. Big Tiger, I didn't sell it to a second ancestor like you. ”

Liu Chang was shocked.

Eight hundred taels to buy for themselves, and two hundred and twenty taels for others.

He couldn't help but say, "You kid is interesting. I won't take advantage of you, I'll give you five hundred taels. I wonder, why don't you sell me? ”

Everyone seemed to understand, and they all hurriedly looked at Li Hu. Someone persuaded: "You don't know who Second Master Liu is going to, you sell it to him, if you don't sell it to him, others won't dare to ask for it." ”

Li Hu hugged his fists in all directions, and said loudly: "I am from Yangjia Village, Baihe, Yi County, and I plan to open a stone field to treat stones, this little tiger is jade, I can use him to make friends in temperament." But this big tiger is a stone, it is my future livelihood, a rich man like Liu Erye must be able to afford it, but I make such a stone object to make it popular and make it popular in the world, not just to make a fortune, I want ordinary people to buy it and collect it? ”

Mr. Bao nodded, yes.

Liu Chang said "strange".

Before he could say more, Mr. Bao stretched out a fan to stop him and asked, "Do you think I'm an ordinary person?" ”

Li Hu said: "Count." If you want to put it in the shop to attract popularity, then naturally. He continued: "This Shihu is a bit special. It's really expensive. Why it will be expensive, I can't tell you, but the stone in the future, not expensive, it will make ordinary people durable, beautiful and affordable. He took a step back, stood up the steps, and said loudly, "The world's famous families can use exquisite jade and precious stones, but can we ordinary people decorate our homes with exquisite stones?" I also know a lot of beautiful stones, such as medium white jade stone, malachite, fish scale stone, tortoise stone...... I'm going to make it into a hitching stake, a stone slab, a stone table, a stone painting, a stone screen, ......"

It's a fantastic scene.

Only Mr. Nabao began to slap the folding fan.

Liu Chang didn't say a word, turned his head and ordered: "Take five hundred taels out." Buy Xiaohu. The big one is not sold, and Lao Tzu can't be cheeky to take it away, do you write down where he is, what is it called...... In the future, there will be a shortage of stone table stone paintings, so send someone to find him. Oh. That tiger can also let him make a special one for me later. ”

However, the family stepped forward to hand over the money, but Li Hu categorically refused: "A gentleman, you can say as much as you want, and I don't want much for a penny." If you want to give five hundred taels, then I won't sell it. ”

Liu Chang was anxious, came up in a circle, and asked loudly: "Are you using the master to promote your family?" Yes. Do you believe that when you walk away like this, no one will buy you? He asked everyone: "If it's expensive, don't you sell it?" Am I short of money? I don't lack it. What do you mean? ”

Dog chestnut shook Li Hu's arm vigorously.

Li Hu smiled and said: "You are not short of money, but you can't spend money indiscriminately, am I short of money?" I'm not lacking either. This is my way of treating friends...... If I don't earn you much, I won't say I'll give it to you. As long as you buy it, don't regret it. If you regret it, it will not be a husband's behavior. ”

Liu Chang shouted "Okay".

He shouted "buy", but he turned around and left, Mr. Bao stopped him, the two didn't know what to say, and finally Mr. Bao let him go, came back by himself, smiled and asked for his name, and then asked them to help him move the tiger to the bookstore, and then looked at Li Hu's hands away, and he was even more thoughtful. Li Hu and Dog Chestnut helped him straighten the tiger and clean up his things, and many people followed up outside, some went to read books, some helped them correct how to position the tiger, and some people said: "Mr. Bao, you go back and put a lamp on the tiger." ”

The tiger is ready.

Mr. Bao said that the man went to get the money, but left Li Hu and asked him if he had food or tea...... After waiting for almost an hour, Li Huzheng was surprised that the money was coming slowly, and a small box was sent outside.

Mr. Bao took it, put it in front of Li Hu as it was, and said softly: "You may not know enough about our second son Liu. He is the second son of the third room of Wei Bo Liu's family, and his father is a long history in our county, although his personality is a little reckless, and he spends money uncontrollably, but people can still make friends. He was originally attentive to you, not a few words fate, or feel that you are different from others, today, it is a formal intention to make friends, so let me keep you for a while, just now you lost nearly three hundred taels of silver from him, sold him three hundred taels of wrench, this time of kung fu, he is home to let people send the wrench back to you. Please also ask Li Gongzi to accept it, don't be embarrassed for me as a matchmaker. ”

Li Hu thought for a while, retrieved his wrench, hugged his fists and said, "If you want to say that, I'm welcome." It's been a while since I've been out of the house, and I don't dare to stay in the county longer, and I'll tell you where you live, let's go for a walk in the streets, and if we can buy a horse, we'll be back in the afternoon...... There will be a date later. ”

He struck the sullen dog chestnut, put away the silver ticket that Mr. Bao gave him again, and strode out.

The person was gone, but Liu Chang came in through the back door, sweating, and it seemed that he had just gone home.

He pressed the door of his head and asked softly, "Take it?" ”

Mr. Bao nodded, let him sit down, and said, "This young man is both civil and military, the scratches on the wrench finger are very clear, and this tiger is so heavy." ”

Liu Chang said: "The key is to be tempered with me. Damn. Quite characterful. I'm afraid that he won't accept it when I come out, and I'm hiding outside, you say I'm the gold master, do I still owe him in return? Right? You said I want him to do things for me in the future, and he is not greedy for money, what should I do? ”

Mr. Bao said: "Zifei is not a thing in the pool, what a big pattern it was just now, the stone will be sold to the county sooner or later, let's talk about it." ”
