A day later, Tang Zhou's paintings had spread among some powerful people in Chang'an City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It's just that although the spread spreads, there are not as many people who come to Tang Zhou to paint, because in the eyes of these people, although Tang Zhou's paintings are very similar, a painting is still too much to sell for 2,000 yuan, and as long as there is money, the paintings are still too vulgar in the eyes of these powerful people and families.

Things did not go as smoothly as Tang Zhou imagined, and among the fireworks alley and some people who often go to fireworks alley, what is more and more widely spread is what happened between Tang Zhou and Lian Hongyao, after all, the matter of talented and beautiful women is still very popular in this era.

After seeing this situation, Tang Zhou had an urge to reduce the price, but after thinking about it, he still held back, in his opinion, his paintings are indeed not worth so much money, but if the price is low, it will give people a feeling of worthlessness, which is not good.

He still has to have the attitude he should have, his Tang Zhou's paintings are unique in the Tang Dynasty, and they must not be compromised.

The sun was quiet in the early autumn afternoon, all kinds of news in the capital were spreading, Tang Zhou sat alone in the study to color the sketches of those people before, he felt that if he could send these paintings to those magnates, after they saw the real paintings, they should come to him Tang Zhou to make an appointment with the painting, after all, the magnates had only heard that if they wanted to see the paintings, they had to go to Jiangnan Pavilion to find Lian Hongyao, but for some magnates, they disdained to go to that kind of place, and if they didn't show Lian Hongyao, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?

Just when Tang Zhou was busy in the study, Xia Fan suddenly hurriedly came to report: "Little Marquis, Yan Li originally wanted to see you." ”

Xia Fan's words were filled with excitement, because Yan Liben's three words had already swept Chang'an City, even if Tang Zhou's reputation was not as bad as Yan Liben's, Xia Fan still felt an indescribable sense of pride.

After listening to Yan Liben, Tang Zhou couldn't help but be a little curious, although Yan Liben was painting for the heroes, but he Tang Zhou and Yan Liben didn't have much intersection, Yan Li originally saw himself, what was the matter, could it be because of his own painting?

Thinking like this, Tang Zhou suddenly had an idea, so he hurriedly ordered: "Please ask him to stay in the living room later." ”

Yan Liben is in his forties, with beautiful hair, probably because he has not suffered much since he was a child, he gives people the feeling that he is white and tender, like a middle-aged beautiful man.

When Tang Zhou saw him, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Mr. Yan has arrived, and the plug is really shining." ”

Yan Liben hadn't looked at Tang Zhou particularly carefully before, but at this time, he looked Tang Zhou up and down, and felt that Tang Zhou was really a handsome young man, he Yan Liben was a painter, and he had an obsession with beauty, no matter what kind of beauty it was, now seeing Tang Zhou's demeanor, he hurriedly smiled and said: "Little Hou Ye is polite, I came here today, I just want to take a look at Xiao Hou Ye's paintings." ”

Hearing Yan Liben's words, Tang Zhou was taken aback, because in his concept, two people who are not particularly familiar with each other always have to be polite before explaining their intentions, why did Yan Liben speak bluntly as soon as he came, could it be that secular concepts are not suitable for him?

Tang Zhou thought like this, and he could understand a little bit, Yan Li was originally a painter, but he was an artist in later generations, and artists are more or less different from ordinary people, if you look at them from the perspective of ordinary people, you will definitely feel that they are a little neurotic.

After understanding, Tang Zhou didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "The younger generation is clumsy, it is really difficult to get into the elegant hall." ”

As soon as he heard Tang Zhou's modesty, Yan Liben condensed his eyebrows slightly: "Whether the painting is good or not, you will know after you see it." ”

Tang Zhou shrugged helplessly, thinking that he really couldn't be too modest with him, so he bowed his hand slightly and said, "Then please ask Mr. Yan to move to the study." ”

When the two came to the study, Tang Zhou took out a few sketches, and finally took out a painting of Cheng Yanjin that had been colored, and the reason why he colored Cheng Yanjin's painting first was mainly requested by Cheng Yanjin, and Tang Zhou couldn't refuse.

Yan Liben first looked at the sketches, and after reading them, he couldn't help but exclaim that the brushwork was good, and then he went to see Cheng Yanjin's painting, and was suddenly shocked, and said: "Like, really like, eyebrows and eyes are expressive......

Yan Li was originally a painter, and he also had a lot of words to depict self-portraits, and after he saw Cheng Yanjin's painting, he muttered a lot of such words, and Tang Zhou became more embarrassed the more he listened to it, and finally had to smile bitterly.

"Presumably, it is still a little worse than Mr. Yan's paintings, and these of the younger generations are just handy graffiti."

"Self-portraits are meant to convey the spirit, and if you scribble with your hands, then mine can't be called a painting." Yan Liben was a little angry, but Tang Zhou couldn't help but want to slap his mouth, how could he be cheap again, how could he be modest here in Yan Liben?

But if he is not modest and says yes, yes, I do draw better than you, he Tang Zhou really can't say this, and in the end he can only stand aside and let Yan Liben evaluate.

When Yan Liben evaluated these paintings, he also had a lot of questions, and Tang Zhou had to answer them when he asked a question.

Yan Liben stroked his beard and said: "The painting of the little marquis is really exquisite, I admire it below, and there is a reluctant invitation below, I don't know if the little marquis will agree?" ”

As soon as Tang Zhou wanted to be modest, thinking of Yan Liben's attitude, he immediately smiled: "Mr. Yan, it's okay to say it. ”

"I want to apprentice."

Hearing that Yan Li was going to apprentice, Tang Zhou was stunned for a moment and said, "This ...... How can this be done, it must not be ......"

"Does the little marquis think I'm stupid? Or are you afraid that I will steal your craft? ”

Poof, Tang Zhou is really a little speechless, and he won't be able to communicate with this Yan Liben in the future.

"Mr. Yan's paintings are unique in my Tang Dynasty, how dare the younger generation be your master, if Mr. Yan wants to learn sketching, let's learn more in the future, why bother to apprentice......"

Before Tang Zhou finished speaking, Yan Li already shook his head: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye, we are painting a subject, and we pay the most attention to the inheritance of the teacher, have you ever heard that painting without a teacher is very good?" So if you want to learn painting, you must apprentice, and you must have a very grand apprenticeship, don't say anything about the little marquis, you just say whether you are willing to accept me as an apprentice. ”

Tang Zhou was confused by Yan Liben's words, originally he thought that Yan Liben was original, he asked Yan Liben to help himself publicize some, Yan Liben is a master in this regard, he said a sentence to withstand the hundreds of thousands of words of propaganda of those powerful people, in this way, there will be more people who come to paint by themselves, and the matter of painting and making money by themselves will be spread more widely.

But who would have thought that Yan Liben was going to apprentice alive or dead, what should he do?

Seeing that Yan Liben's apprentice was still arrogant, as if he was blind if he didn't accept him, Tang Zhou had to reluctantly nodded: "Okay." ”
