The First Strange World (8)
Whether it is Su San or Xue Si, Bai Qi knows that this is their pseudonym, and even the shopkeeper Yu understands this. It's just that everyone is reluctant to say it, after all, people have the intention to hide it, there must be a reason, everyone meets each other, this is also human nature.
After everyone sat down, the shopkeeper Yu showed his signature smile and said, "The two sons came to the trumpet, I don't know if there is anything they can help with?" ”
Su San said: "Recently, good calligraphers and painters in Beijing are passing on the works of a person called Tianya Wanderer, this gentleman has a good performance regardless of calligraphy and painting, and Mr. Liu Yuxin, a member of the Beijing people, saw this gentleman's work, and greatly appreciated it. called this gentleman a rare genius of calligraphy and painting in the past 30 years. Nowadays, the calligraphy and painting of this wanderer can be said to be hard to find, and I have been looking for a long time to find it. ”
When Bai Qi heard this, he was shocked in his heart, this "wanderer in the rivers and lakes" was none other than Bai Qi himself, and all the signatures on Bai Qi's calligraphy and paintings were in this wanderer. It's just that although Bai Qi is quite confident in his calligraphy and painting, he never expected that Liu Yuxin, a person in Beijing, would give himself such a high evaluation. Thinking of this, Bai Qi squinted at the shopkeeper Yu, this old guy was hiding himself so tightly, he had a calligraphy and painting, and he had a hundred taels of silver at most. Bai Qi sold more than 50 calligraphy and paintings here around the time, and he didn't know how much the shopkeeper had made from it.
Shopkeeper Yu saw that Bai Qi's eyes were not good, and he secretly complained in his heart, but he didn't expect Bai Qi to catch him, where are these two distinguished guests, they are simply his enemies. It doesn't matter if they say this, Bai Qi happens to be here, how can he step down.
When the calligraphy and painting are collected, it also depends on the eyesight of each family, Bai Qi's calligraphy and painting, when I got it to another store, other stores still disdained it. If it weren't for Yu's shopkeeper, his calligraphy and painting might still be an unknown work in Beijing, right? Thinking about this section, Bai Qi's heart was calm, and the eyes of the shopkeeper Yu were also much friendlier, and he also had a peaceful smile on his face.
Seeing that Bai Qi's complexion improved, he knew that the matter might have passed like this, so he hurriedly put up a smile and returned to Su Sandao: "Master Su, the calligraphy and painting trumpet of the wanderers in the rivers and lakes has always wanted to collect a few, but I have never had a relationship with it." "Shopkeeper Yu means that he wants to deny it, and he sells his calligraphy and paintings in front of Bai Qimian, how will the business be done in the future. Although the two in front of him may be big customers in the future, they are all trivial compared to Bai Qi's ready-made cornucopia.
It seems that Su San and Xue Si had already prepared before they came, Xue Si saw that the shopkeeper Yu was so prevaricated, he had some brains in his heart, and his face showed a little chill, and he said coldly to the shopkeeper Yu: "The shopkeeper, the Ming people don't say dark words, we have already inquired before we came, the calligraphy and paintings of this wanderer in the rivers and lakes, except for your Taobao Pavilion, none of the other stores have sold a piece." ”
Seeing Xue Si like this, Su San also said to Shopkeeper Yu with a cold face: "Shopkeeper, don't say that our brother didn't remind you, in this royal city, it is not difficult for us to smash your small broken shop, don't look at us when we are young, and want to fool us." ”
Shopkeeper Yu listened to the cruel words of these two, and his heart was shocked, these two didn't look like the master who was easy to mess with, so he had to turn his head to look at Bai Qi, hoping that Bai Qi could help speak. When Bai Qi saw the shopkeeper Yu looking over, he smiled slightly, and he didn't speak, just looking at the lively posture.
The shopkeeper Yu had to turn around and smile at the two evil guests: "Two, don't hide it, the calligraphy and painting of this wanderer in the rivers and lakes in Beijing did go out from the trumpet, but this calligraphy and painting is very popular, it was out of stock a few days ago, and the two of them want it now, so it's really embarrassing." ”
Shopkeeper Yu told the truth this time, now there is indeed no calligraphy and painting of Bai Qi in the store, this is not very early in the morning, Shopkeeper Yu is still talking to Ah Shun about Bai Qi, just hoping that Bai Qi will quickly provide calligraphy and painting.
Su San and Xue Si heard what Shopkeeper Yu said, their faces showed disappointment, after all, they are not really unreasonable people, and they have little social experience, speaking in the sincere tone of Shopkeeper Yu just now, in their opinion, what they said should be the truth. Don't look at Shopkeeper Yu's truth now, but old Jianghu like Shopkeeper Yu, if you want to take a lie as the truth, maybe the tone is more sincere.
"Childe, don't listen to this old man's nonsense, just now he said that he wanted to collect a few pieces, and we were forced to say no, this is clearly to coax the sons." The young lady was about to withdraw her troops, and the maid jumped out. Su San and Xue Si felt that this was the truth when they heard it, and their pretty faces suddenly became stiff.
"Okay, shopkeeper, I don't think you want to open this shop, fourth brother, let's go, go back and let the city guards come and demolish this broken shop." Su San got up as he spoke, pulling Xue Si and going out.
Shopkeeper Yu suddenly sweated all over his body, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the two and said: "Two sons, don't say turn your face, just turn your face, this is something to say, now is it, maybe tomorrow, maybe in the afternoon." ”
Bai Qi heard Shopkeeper Yu speak like this, and his heart was secretly amused, and he said in his heart: This woman turns her face much faster than she turns over.
Su San and Xue Sifu sat down again, and Xue Si smiled coldly: "Really? Don't you want to coax us to leave first, do you? Don't make a fake to deceive us at that time, I can tell you, we may not be able to tell the real from the fake, but we are all frequent visitors to Liu Yuxin's old-timer mansion. ”
"Don't dare! Can't! Below are the buyers, and this business comes to the door, how can there be pushed out. It's just that this wanderer is a strange person, he puts calligraphy and paintings on the trumpet to sell, but people are elusive, he rarely appears when he wants to see him, and he may come when he doesn't want to see him. Shopkeeper Yu glanced at Bai Qi as he spoke, his eyes were full of pleading, this is to help Bai Qi save the scene.
Seeing this, Bai Qi felt that it was time to take over the conversation with a smile: "It turns out that the two of you are here to find the calligraphy and painting of the wanderers in the rivers and lakes, and it is a coincidence, I happen to have one on hand, and it was transferred to me by Shopkeeper Yu the day before yesterday." It's not a coincidence that the two of them came, and it happened that the Yu shopkeeper was not in stock, and I was an old friend with the Yu shopkeeper, and it happened that this calligraphy and painting were also brought with me, so let the two of them go, and it could be regarded as a favor for a friend. ”
Su San and Xue Si saw that Bai Qi had no other items except for the folding fan in his hand, so Xue Si sneered: "Feelings, does Brother Duan Qi also want to tease us?" ”
Bai Qi smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to open the folding fan and said, "Hehe! The two of you are looking down on me Duan Qi, don't you want something? As he spoke, Bai Qi pointed to the calligraphy and painting on the folding fan.
Su San and Xue Si saw that the folding fan was a "Picture of Autumn Water Distant Mountains", and there was also the payment and seal of the "Jianghu Wanderer" on it, and their faces immediately turned red, and the two hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Duan." ”
Bai Qi said with a smile: "It's okay, the two of you are eager to paint, and it will be of great use if you think about it, so it can be understood below." ”
