Chapter 85
The sun shines in the evening, the dark wind comes, this is the most sleepy time of the day, and there is no place to have a pastime, you can fall asleep with your head on the pillow; It is said that there is a Yue Guo generous in the Nulu Pavilion in Liyang Guan City, Yale sings, Zheng Wei also sings the sound of the beautiful voice, and can also dance the sword, but the value is too high, it is said that the proton of the Wei State ran to the pastime, and he threw three thousand gold in two days and did not meet, so forget it.
On a hot day like this, young people can't resist resting early, let alone the elderly, but Gan Long is an anomaly, sitting in the slightly stuffy study, still sitting with a high crown and a wide belt, sitting in a precarious position, pressing a bamboo slip in one hand and holding a carving knife in the other, and is working on his "Theory of Self-Rest".
"The way of learning, the hope of resting oneself, the hope of stretching, is to learn and govern, no learning is lost, for the way of the country, rest oneself, even if there is no more Zhou ceremony, still have a great success, non-Confucianism can be, the Tao can be seen".
After writing a paragraph, Lao Ganlong will read it from the beginning, and then smile with satisfaction, he is a doer who studies the art of governing the country, writes his knowledge and experience, and never disdains Lu Shang Laozi's writing of the Yin Fu Sutra, how can ambiguous things be passed down to the world? It is said that it makes the benevolent and wise see each other, but it is just an empty and exaggerated thing, and the old Qin State does not need those things.
Speaking of studying, I unconsciously thought of the story that has been circulated among the nobles of the Qin State recently, the little girl who sells flints? Although Bai Dong told this story too plainly, it was not in line with the demeanor of my generation of scholars, but it was quite evocative, and it could be regarded as a serious method that could be used by learning, I was not mistaken, this son is not good, one day, it will shake my Great Qin Court again.
When you are old, you are old, and when you carve dozens of words, you will feel a sore numbness in your wrist, stop and turn your wrist a few times, and take a sip of the 'Baijia Tea' that has recently swept Liyang, and suddenly feel refreshed. Good thing, now there is a kind of atmosphere in Liyang City, and if you don't drink tea, you are embarrassed to call yourself a nobleman, and this atmosphere has gradually spread to the six countries of Shandong. This kid Lao Ganlong smiled unconsciously, he was troubled by Bai Dong, and now there are no raw tea leaves sold in the pharmacy, fortunately, it is just a cultural auxiliary, otherwise there will be a big mess.
"Father, the child is back"
"Come in." Glancing at Gan Sheng, who was obviously unable to learn and write, but was a good hand in business, the old Gan Long sighed secretly: "Have you seen that kid?" ”
"As my father expected, the large purchase of yam shops is exactly what Bai Dong meant, he is going to show his strength in Liyang Guan City."
"Well, in fact, it's a vain question to ask, with that kid's temperament, if you don't do business, it's really a waste, what? He is also going to open a tea shop? "The tofu of the yam family has not been placed in the eyes of Lao Ganlong, and it is just a coarse food, how can it be compared to the tea that is born in line with the style of a scholar? If you guess correctly, Bai Dong must be going to make a lot of money by relying on 'Bai Family Tea', this kid is clever and changeable, but he is very greedy for money, how can he not see such a big bargain?
"Well, my father guessed wrong, although Bai Dong asked for yam to buy a shop, he didn't think about selling tea, and said that there was a lot of business in the world, how could the Bai family take care of it all. The child is stupid, he really can't guess what he wants to do, the shop has bought more than ten or twenty stores, but he stays in the ancestral hall all day to be a gentleman, the child of the enlightenment clan, etc., the child understands! What business would require such a large number of shops? Most likely, he is also going to open a women's hall! This is the most profitable business; The child heard that there is a Yue Guo generous person in the women's hall today, who can play elegant music and dance swords, and as soon as she moves to shake the Quartet, she will occupy the whole courtyard alone. If Bai Dong brought in such characters from all over the world, it would be reasonable to buy a dozen shops."
"Phew! Are you really getting stupid and open a women's hall? Who are you as Bai Dong? That's also a nobleman of the seventh rank! Who are the people who open women's pavilions in all countries around the world? They are all lowly people from pure merchants, etc. Do you think there are a few Fan Li in the world, all of whom can bring beauties to retire after achieving meritorious deeds? ”
Old Ganlong glared at his son with hatred: "Don't speculate, my father told you that those who criticize will suffer very hardship, remember, remember!" ”
"No, my son wrote it down."
Gan Sheng felt more uncomfortable in front of his father than in the sun, hurriedly wiped his sweat, and took out the ink and inkstone given by Bai Dong: "Father, Bai Dong has made a new 'turtle gum and rosin ink', saying that it can be used at any time, the ink is pure, and it is not easy to fade, you might as well give it a try, if it is really as good as he said, my father will not have to work hard every day to engrave." ”
"Forget it, write a book and say, where do you need to use this kind of quick thing?"
"The child has tried it, it's really a good thing, the ink rhyme is fragrant, it is in line with the father's style, I'll show you"
Gan Sheng diligently put the inkstone on the desk, poured some water into it, held the ink block with one hand, and lifted the sleeve with the other hand.
Gan Long's eyes lit up unconsciously, this set of ink grinding actions is Bai Dongji's collection of various costume TV series in later generations of masterpieces extracted, the hand holding the ink is the method of holding the pen after the passage of the brush, pointing to the orchid palm if it contains eggs, the hand that lifts the sleeve is empty and outward, and the combination of the two hands is based on the way of Fang Yuan, such a posture is the most lethal to the reader, and it is strange that the old man doesn't like it.
The inkstone made of Baidong grass is actually a hollow green brick that is fired more rigorously, and the corners are trimmed into the appearance of an inkstone, and then after fine grinding, it can barely be used, but it does not meet the standard of the famous inkstone of later generations; But the best thing in life is the first time, seeing that with the rotation of the ink block, the clear water gradually turned into rosin-scented ink, and the cultivation of Ganlong was also childlike, and he grabbed the ink block and said: "Let the father come, this matter is a little elegant, wonderful."
Not long after the inkstone has been full of black and bright ink, take a closer look at the ink color, smell the ink fragrance, Lao Ganlong smiled, took a branch of fragrant wood pen resting on the shelf, tried to dip it in the ink, wrote a word on the empty Jane, only to see that the ink color is deep, the shade is appropriate, soon infiltrated into the peeled bamboo strips, blow a few breaths, and then try to touch the word with your hands, there is no ink on the fingers, and suddenly Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed: "Good ink, good ink!" This kid is really a genius, so fragrant ink, just in line with the elegance of my generation of readers! Sheng'er, what's the name of this ink? ”
"I heard Bai Dong say that this is the best ink, but before the name of the product is engraved, its name is 'Ink Rhyme Fragrance'"
"Ink rhyme? It's not bad, but it's just frivolous. Such a treasure of the writer's family, it should be more dignified."
The overjoyed old Ganlong pondered for a moment before saying: "It's good to change one word, it's called 'ink rhyme and fragrance'." Gan Sheng, quickly go and tell Bai Dong that this thing is also a treasure, and you must not use the wrong name. By the way, the old man named the ink, and that kid was embarrassed to bear it in vain, right? You just want more, dozens of yuan, hundreds of yuan is not too much, the old man likes Ah Sheng'er, you did a good job this time! ”
"No! The child will go to the Bai family, or he will buy it, who will make his father like it? ”
Gan Sheng was overjoyed, he had grown so big, it was the first time he had been praised by his father like this.
