"Lao Yan, others don't say it, you don't have to worry about this kind of thing in your name......"

"Hugh is going to talk nonsense, I haven't recited the meaning of the owner yet." Yan Chaofeng frowned, scolded, and raised his eyes to look at Chu Feng again.

Zhang Chaofeng, who was opposite, suddenly remembered the intimate relationship between Chu Feng and the owner, and suddenly understood the loophole in his words, and hurriedly smiled: "Haha! It's just a joke. Our owner's operation of this calligraphy and painting shop is also about to be a hundred years old, where is it so easy to be shaken! Let's talk about this here, it's just okay to chew the root of the tongue, it's just a joke, you can't do it really, haha! ”

Zhang Chaofeng snorted and arched his hand at Chu Feng and the others: "I still have some things over there, I'll go and get busy first." Farewell, farewell. ”

Almost as if he was running away, Chu Feng looked at Zhang Chaofeng's back, thinking about what he said, I am afraid it is not unreasonable.

Chu Feng is not a person who shirks responsibility, no matter what, when the boat of calligraphy and paintings was lost, he himself was on the boat, and he always felt that he couldn't pat his ass and say that it had nothing to do with him.

Not to mention Fan Qiubai's love affair with himself, after that, the owner let him come to the store to do a pilgrimage, at his current age, this matter itself is already a big face.

If something really goes wrong with the Fan family, if I can help, I will definitely help.

It's just, how can I help......

"Chu Lang, don't think too much." Yan Chaofeng looked at Chu Feng, who was deep in thought, and sighed slightly, "Lao Zhang at least has a good sentence, this Fan's calligraphy and painting shop is also the foundation of nearly a hundred years, I haven't seen anything in the ups and downs, wind and waves, and I won't suffer because of a boatload of calligraphy and painting." What exactly happened. We're just guessing right now. Lao Zhang's words can't be really. ”

Chu Feng nodded when he heard this, and was about to say something, but saw a servant in the front hall rushing over in a panic.

"Chu Chaofeng! Chu Chaofeng! "Seeing Chu Feng standing here, the little servant hurriedly rushed over as if he had been pardoned." That father-in-law Ma is here, in the front hall, and he wants to find you by name! I wanted to ask for a shopkeeper, but I couldn't find a shopkeeper at all......"

"Don't worry." Chu Feng smiled slightly, "The shopkeeper just went out, this father-in-law Ma discussed coming yesterday, don't be afraid." ”

The little servant was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and when he saw Chu Fengyun's light and breezy appearance at this time, he also breathed a sigh of relief. Raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve: "I'm scared to death." The shopkeeper was not there, and the steward in the front hall had just left. I've never received a person of that status myself, but fortunately, there is Chu Chaofeng! ”

Chu Feng stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, and smiled and confessed to Yan Chao beside him: "Brother Yan......"

"Chu Lang is busy himself." Yan Chaofeng nodded, smiled admiringly, "This person, in the end, it still depends on luck." Why did that noble man take a fancy to you at a glance, my old Yan has been on duty here for almost twenty years. I've never encountered such a good thing! Ha ha! It seems that being handsome is popular! ”

"Why is Brother Yan making fun of me!" Chu Feng shook his head with a smile and went to the front hall with the little servant.

Turn the cloister and enter the vestibule through the side door. As soon as he lifted the door curtain, Chu Feng saw Ma Gonggong who was looking at the calligraphy and painting on the wall with his back to him.

Ma Gonggong was accompanied by four guards, plainclothes and swords, and only one stop there provoked the other guests to avoid it.

"Grandpa Ma, I'm really sorry. Our shopkeeper has something to do. The servant inevitably neglected a little. Chu Feng stepped forward to give a salute and said with a smile, "Let's talk upstairs?" ”

"If there is nothing to do today, the old slave will definitely have a few drinks with Chu Langjun." As soon as Gonggong Ma saw Chu Feng, a smile appeared on his face. took a few steps forward, held Chu Feng's hand, and smiled earnestly, "But the old slave is a hard worker, and he can't be idle for a moment." After sending these said things to you, I have to go to the other end of the North City, and I can't talk to Chu Langjun. ”

With that, Ma Gonggong smiled and waved his hand to the guard behind him, and the guard walked up with a bag of things.

Ma Gonggong personally unwrapped the small package and said, "According to the instructions of my family Ah Lang, this is the "Thousand Character Text" transcribed by Cai Xiang, as well as yesterday's thank you gift of sixty yuan. Sixty yuan is not free to hold, I have folded the official silver, it is all here, Chu Langjun will count it! ”

With Cai Xiang's "Thousand Character Text", Chu Feng was very pleased, his face was happy, and he immediately picked up the scroll and unfolded it to see, he couldn't put it down.

Father-in-law Ma couldn't help but smile when he looked at Chu Feng's appearance, and said: "It can be seen that Chu Langjun is a real person who loves calligraphy and painting, which is completely different from those who are vassals and elegant. ”

Chu Feng looked at the money in the cloth bag, his heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "It's enough for me to have this handwritten book from Cai Xiang, this money ...... Presumably, Grandpa Ma is also unsightly, but in this hot summer, it is really not easy for the few big brothers who came with you, let the big brothers stay for drinking! ”

Chu Feng doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking now, and he doesn't go to places like those Fengyue Treasure Land Sales Golden Caves, he really doesn't know why he wants so much money, so it's better to be a favor.

It's just that his hand is really stiff, but fortunately, Chu Feng's face is sincere, and it won't make people feel so uncomfortable.

Ma Gonggong smiled when he heard this, and he didn't dare to accept it, but smiled: "Chu Langjun, this is something that my family Ah Lang personally ordered to give you, how dare we take it?" Even if you don't have such an old face, you still have to worry about your own life! If Chu Langjun really feels sorry for us who are subordinates, Gai Ming'er will accompany us to have a drink, and tell us about these elegant things such as calligraphy and painting, ink and painting, etc., it can be regarded as giving us face and letting us see each other for a long time! ”

"Ma Gonggong's words are really too humble. The painting skills of the nobles, hey, there are few painting scrolls in this calligraphy and painting industry that can be compared. With my vision, how dare I fight with Ma Gonggong. Chu Feng recalled all the things he saw last night, sighed sincerely, looked at the sixty yuan again, took it with both hands, and nodded, "Then thank you very much, I will invite everyone to eat and drink another day." ”

It costs 20 yuan to make a tea circle in Fan Lou, and these 60 yuan is really nothing to them.

"Then thank Chu Langjun first. Leave. Ma Gonggong smiled slightly and left with the guards.

"That's right, Grandpa Ma." Chu Feng suddenly remembered something, and put a letter in the other party's hands, "The half of last night's "Tasha Xing", after I came back, I remembered the second half and wrote it on it. If you don't think it's ridiculous, but please take a look. ”

Ma Gonggong heard this. took the letterhead and said with a smile: "My family Ah Lang kept chanting this poem last night, 'Wrong teaching the temples to be affected by the east wind, and watching the green shadow become silk early'." Scold! What kind of rhetoric should be used to reconcile such a delicate sentence? ”

Seeing that Father-in-law Ma didn't dare to open the letterhead directly, Chu Feng smiled and said: "It's nothing more than 'Xiaolou Mingyue Town Mayor is idle, what is the matter in life'." ”

Grandpa Ma listened, savored it for a moment, and sighed. patted Chu Feng on the shoulder and turned around.

Chu Feng sent Ma Gonggong to the door, and watched him board the inconspicuous carriage and enter the bustling city.

From the prosperity, to the prosperity.

For many people, this may be their fate.

……

……

In fact, there is not much work that needs to be done in the Fan painting and calligraphy shop.

It is the work of the servants to serve tea and pour water, and it is the work of the guests to entertain the guests, and the courtiers are superior to them. Unless it's something important, the problems of the general front office are unlikely to bother them.

For the courtiers. The most work is to identify the two words.

As one of the best calligraphy and painting shops in Tokyo, this is the place of choice for many literati and artists who need to exchange some money.

Fan's calligraphy and painting shop has always left a good reputation, there is no past of shopkeepers bullying customers, and there is no suspicion of suppressing prices, but it is very polite and friendly to these people who come to sell paintings and calligraphy.

People in the circle even vaguely take the price of Fan's painting and calligraphy as the standard. What kind of price your calligraphy and paintings can sell here represents a certain status of your own.

The position of Fan's calligraphy and painting in the entire city of Tokyo can be seen.

Being able to do worship in such a place is indeed a very good thing for Chu Feng.

He followed Yan Chaofeng to learn things for a month. Now he can probably recognize the prices of various types of calligraphy and paintings, and as for the eye for appreciation, Chu Feng has always been very good in this regard.

After all, the things of the future are in the mind, and the horizon is there, and it is easy to learn these things.

It's just that there are some tricks and the like in the store, such as how to judge the old and new from the ink color, and the authenticity from the paper, this kind of knowledge needs to be learned and absorbed by Chu Feng little by little.

True and false, old and new, every time he came into contact with these things, Chu Feng couldn't help but think of Li Liangchen from Hangzhou City. I don't know what kind of level it is for her......

After all, she is also a very powerful character, and if possible, it is best to be able to get Fang La to leave Hangzhou before she makes trouble. It's just that he can't even persuade Liu Zhengqing's kid, wouldn't it be more difficult to persuade someone who doesn't have much intersection with him?

Laughing at himself, Chu Feng took advantage of the afternoon to write a letter to Liu Zhengqing, talking about the trivial matters in recent days, and once again invited him to come to live in Tokyo City as soon as possible.

Things must be done slowly, and Liu Zhengqing will at least wait until the government examination is passed before coming to Beijing. Chu Feng was not in a hurry, but as soon as he had the effort, he infiltrated this idea in the letterhead. Every time I finish writing, I can't help but feel that I have a bit of a mother-in-law, but after thinking about it, I feel that this is a big matter involving the life of my friend's net worth after all, and it is necessary to repeat it.

Liu Zhengping's letterhead has also been exchanged a few times, and it seems that the disaster in Hangzhou has gradually subsided, and the ideas that came out before have probably had some effect.

Last time, Liu Zhengping's letter said that Lord Zhizhou and Lord Fushi seemed to have received a lot of awards and comments, all of which said that they had a good way to relieve disasters and so on. Some of the methods of mobilizing the people to cooperate in disaster relief in Hangzhou have also been absorbed and adopted by other places, and now they are being continuously promoted in Jiangzuo, and the effect seems to be very good.

These methods were not only those mentioned by Chu Feng, and later, the people in the yamen gradually thought of some better methods. For example, families with outstanding disaster relief donations will be directly exempted from one year's harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes by the government; The family of the person who donated how much grain has been donated can be recorded in the county chronicle and sing the praises of merit...... There are all kinds of small methods, but it is obvious that they are better and more practical than the methods that Chu Feng originally thought of.

Just looking at the meaning of Liu Zhengping's words, there are some resentful emotions hidden in it. Roughly speaking, these methods were originally thought of by Chu Feng, but now when it comes to rewarding meritorious deeds, Chu Feng has no part in it, and everyone doesn't even know what contributions he has made in them.

Liu Zhengping is holding grievances for Chu Feng.

Chu Feng only laughed when he saw this. When he first came up with these ideas, he didn't have the intention of asking for credit, but he was used to the peaceful and leisurely world of the later generations, and he couldn't see the suffering of the victims in front of him.

As for the feelings of compassion for the heavens and people, after all, Chu Feng is at this age, and he is engaged in art, more or less, but it is not heavy.

If he is really the kind of person who takes the world as his own responsibility, what Chu Feng needs to do now may be to hold the sky with one hand and try his best to save the decline of the Northern Song Dynasty.

But Chu Feng asked himself that he didn't have that kind of thought, even if he had a little thought, he didn't have that kind of ability.

If it had come earlier, for example, in the days when Huizong had just ascended the throne, the Northern Song Dynasty might still have some hope. But now...... A lot of things have been corrupted to the bone, and it will take time to rebuild them. And what the Northern Song Dynasty lacks most now is time.

In such a situation, there were very few things that Chu Feng could do. Ensure the safety of yourself and the people around you, and help as many people as possible.

Such an idea may seem too subtle to some people. But Chu Feng asked himself, I am afraid that this is only what he can do.

If you have the ability, you may be able to learn from Li Qingzhao, and don't forget to collect gold and stone calligraphy and paintings in the process of fleeing south, so as not to let these quintessences die out in the war. I'm afraid that "Jinshi Lu" can't be done, but at the very least, you can save as much as you can!

Thinking like this, I vaguely have some thoughts in my heart, but I am not in a hurry, and things have to be slow step by step.

It took more than an hour to carefully transcribe Cai Xiang's "Thousand Character Text", and Chu Feng only felt that his mind was refreshing and quite enlightened.

It's just that there are inevitably some things hanging in the air in my heart. For example, Fan Qiubai's illness, as well as the reason for the quarrel between the owner and the shopkeeper, etc., these things are piled up there, which makes his heart a little difficult to rest.

Looking at the sky outside, it was almost time to get off work. Chu Feng thought silently, do you want to take a leave tomorrow and go to Fan's Mansion to pay a visit.

At this time, the little servant hurriedly came over again, his eyes widened: "Chu Chaofeng!" Chu Chaofeng! Five or six people came out there and said they were looking for you! (To be continued.) )
