Two wins. And it's a win-win-win win that isn't controversial.

The iron-blooded hero won the second round of the gambling battle, and almost established Ye Tao and Ye's Workshop as the number one in the field of fine craftsmanship. The two works that Ye Tao took out were indeed not luxury decorations inlaid with gold and jade, but they were all-for-tat. While making such a high-level work, Ye Tao also strictly adhered to the time limit set by himself and Lou Qingxi.

The iron-blooded hero cup was sent directly to Tan Weixin after the display, and then Tan Weixin entered the palace from the main gate of the palace very officially, offering this gift on behalf of Ye Taojin, and relayed the things before and after the gambling fight, as well as the words that everyone said during the display, to his father. Although he was surprised that his daughter would actually come to present a gift on behalf of one of his guests, Tan Xiaopei, the lord of Dongping, still happily accepted this "cup" that he also felt very fond of.

And from this moment on, this third gambling fight is not just a matter between two businessmen, since it has reached the heavens, the attention it has attracted is different. Five days later, the gathering of the Treasure Seal Pavilion also became a topic of discussion among the ministers of Dongping. Although it is inconvenient for these ministers to attend the meeting, lest such a non-governmental "exchange" suddenly take on political overtones and become a pretext for the two countries to become hostile in the future, it is still possible to show some concern and let their children go to see what is interesting, and everyone can provide some convenience openly and secretly.

When everyone's conversation gathered towards this last round of gambling fights, they suddenly found that there was nothing gambling on both sides. Everyone is working hard for a game without a lottery, and this discovery can be regarded as a surprise to everyone. Both sides are powerful businessmen, probably not caring about the so-called lottery heads, but the reputation of this face is more important to them - many people think so.

Because Ye Tao has received so much attention, even the progress of the construction project with Yi Zhan Building has been accelerated a lot, and those suppliers who were originally in the supply of wood and the procurement of stone have seen that Ye Tao is now in the limelight, although he may not want to take a ride, but at least don't leave a bad impression on others, right? Dai Yuege, Ye Tao's honest father-in-law, while enjoying the price discount of purchased materials, was smiling and grinning to deal with all kinds of meals, and also looking for opportunities to tease Ye Tao, this little day was very comfortable.

Due to the fact that there are flying eagles and Yicheng sending letters back and forth, the news of the capital is also transmitted to Yicheng very quickly. Seeing that Ye Tao was thriving in Danyang, Qi Zhentao was so smiling that his mouth was crooked. The current output of the grandfather clock workshop has stabilized at the level of fifty units a month, and Qi Zhentao immediately decided that in addition to leaving ten grandfather clocks in his hand, doing favors in Yicheng, and also using them as a marketing means, all the output of this month will be sent to Danyang. In the letter to Ye Tao, he also said in detail many things that need to be paid attention to in life. The relationship between him and Ye Tao is becoming more and more like an elder and a younger generation who are related to each other, and it is also becoming more and more like an equal partner. Qi Zhentao is fully aware that the rise of Ye Tao is infinitely beneficial to their business. And what he learned made him interested in the magical cloisonné craft and the tools made of meteorite iron. Qi Zhentao even said that he would come to Danyang to see what was going on and how much business opportunity it contained.

For an old and spicy character like Qi Zhentao, for those concerned reminders, although Ye Tao didn't know much about these principles of life as Qi Zhentao imagined, he still felt a burst of warmth. These experiences, if they are not close to a certain extent, it is impossible to say, especially some of them explain the relationship between domestic and foreign business circles and large businesses, introduce some people who can go to ask for help, etc., which shows Qi Zhentao's importance and expectations for him.

In the five days, in addition to resting well, Ye Tao did not apologize for the absence of the last exhibition of his works as Lu Dan said, but concentrated in the workshop, taking out some of the technologies that had been trial-produced, pre-researched, and prepared in the workshop to study and discuss them, and took out a lot of technologies that were originally planned to be taken out in a few years before making money, at least to let the core employees of Ye's Workshop have an understanding. In the current situation, he had to win the last bet, and the current situation did not allow him to lose. Once he lost, the previous two victories were meaningless, and losing face in front of the people of Chunnanguo was something he felt he couldn't tolerate. However, he didn't know at all now that Shang Baotang would come up with something amazing after that.

When the five days flashed by, the last round of gambling finally arrived. The Pavilion is not a restaurant, nor is it a guild hall, and by modern standards, it is actually more like a private club for a small circle of friends to gather and drink. And those who yearn for this place and yearn for such a small circle are not those officials and eunuchs in Danyang, but those businessmen who specialize in running the trade route between Chunnan and Dongping.

The Treasure Seal Pavilion, which had never entertained so many people, did not make any mess in terms of hospitality. On the top floor of the Treasure Seal Pavilion, the place where Shang Bao Tang's final trick was finally displayed, could accommodate more than thirty people, and the others could only wait for the announcement to take turns to visit.

After the first two "discussions", no matter what the result is this time, Lou Qingxi no longer dares to underestimate Ye Tao, a young master craftsman who is only fifteen years old. Although he couldn't do it himself, after exchanging and discussing with the three masters sent to Dongping, everyone was very surprised by the technology that Ye Tao mastered and the level of arts and crafts he showed. And after investigation, it was found that these were only temporary manifestations of Ye Tao, and he had not even shown even a hand in the woodware and wood tools that he was best at home. Of course, there are elements of wood that are not suitable for this kind of gambling content, but isn't it a better proof that Ye Tao is a master craftsman with a comprehensive technique? At the very least, if these masters of Shang Baotang were to make the furniture, there would definitely be something wrong with what they came up with.

Lou Qingxi said to Ye Tao very calmly: "Ye Gongzi, the time is almost up, ...... we are here?" ”

Ye Tao replied with a smile: "Boss Lou, please." ”

Lou Qingxi said politely: "Ye Gongzi is always so polite, if I had known that this was the result, I would not have been so reckless and provoked Gongzi without taking my own strength." In the past month, I have been an eye-opener.

In this kind of situation where neither Luo Qin nor Song Yu appeared on the stage, Lou Qingxi was not afraid to say such things. There was no one around who could hear these words except the two of them. This kind of sympathetic attitude is what he usually shows most often as a businessman. Of course, there is also a kind of arrogance and self-confidence in his humility and calmness, he thinks that the final victory will still belong to him, and only with this understanding, what he said to Ye Tao does not prove that he is weak and can be bullied.

Lou Qingxi cleared his throat as usual and said, "The third treasure of Shang Bao Tang is called the Bihai Chaoyin Book. This treasure is not only the masterpiece of my Shang Bao Tang, but it also originates from Tiancheng, so please appreciate it. ”

The red silk covering the huge screen-like thing that had been placed on the edge of the windowsill on the top floor was removed, revealing the true face in the middle. It turns out that this so-called blue sea tide sound book is a set of screens made of coral, and the outside is equipped with exquisite mahogany shelves.

"Corals are not unusual, but when these different coral screens are combined, they make a different sound when the wind blows, and this sound is like listening to the tide on the shore in different weathers. Please be quiet and listen to ......."

Is there really such a thing in this world? Watching Lou Qingxi command the two servants to unfold and assemble the screen and put it on the tuyere, looking at Lou Qingxi's calm appearance, Ye Tao finally understood why he was so generous today, and actually said that friendship first competition and second type of words before starting, it turned out that Lou Qingxi felt that the victory was in his hands.

When the wind drills through the coral gaps, it appropriately emits a low and beautiful, wave after wave of rustling sound, which is exactly what Ye Tao is familiar with as a person who grew up by the sea. Maybe there are some differences, but the difference between them is not big, this blue sea tide sound book, is indeed quite a good reproduction of the sound of the waves.

Is there anything you can do to fight it? Is this something that human beings can fight against? Could it be that after working hard for so long, you still end up failing?

Ye Tao gritted his teeth. did not accept fate, but said with the same generosity: "I really didn't expect that this natural world could be so created." There is such a magical book that records the sounds of the sea. It was really an eye-opener. ”

Ye Tao had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he bowed down and said, "Boss Lou, wait a few days, and see my methods." The tone suddenly disappeared from the melancholy just now, and it seemed brisk.
