Chapter 224: Setting up a stall
"This is easy to write!" I was about to pick up the pen to write, and then I saw that the drizzle was gone, and then savored that sentence, this fucking kid scolded me for being a toad! Immediately swept the pen, and the tip of the pen was soaked in a large cloud of black ink on the rice paper, and it was soaked in several layers of paper!
Now I felt sorry for the Taoist, so I hurriedly put away the broken rice paper, looked at the ink stains and shook my head helplessly, it seems that this is unusable! He scolded angrily in his heart: "Where did the dead boy come from, dare to entertain me!" Dare Ming'er, let me meet, I won't pump your tendons, I will peel your bones, so that you will never be able to live beyond your life! Be a lonely ghost all day long, wandering around! ”
Through this incident, Mao Yuyang understood a layer of truth, it turns out that this writing can also make money! So I ran to a rice paper shop with great ambition, stood in front of the store, looked at the people who bought rice paper inside, and had mixed feelings in my heart, but I touched a few pieces of broken silver in my pocket, which was all my family property!
If this is not successful, I will really have to live on the streets, begging for a living!
A very elegant old man inside, seeing the drizzle at the door, walked out with a wide heart and a fat body, lowered his head and asked, "Young man, you want to buy rice paper!" ”
Mao Yuyang nodded!
"Then come in and have a look! I have the best rice paper here, all of which are specially offered to the literati, seeing that you are so gentle, I will sell you some cheaply! "The old man laughed!
Mao Yuyang buried his head completely in his chest, and he didn't know how to answer!
When the old man saw that he had not come in, he asked again, "Why are you doing this?" ”
Mao Yuyang took out the broken silver from his bosom and asked, "This is all my family property." How much can you buy! ”
The old man took the broken silver from Drizzle's hand. I put it in my hand and checked it. replied: "You have a lot of money!" You can't buy much! ”
This time, the drizzle is going to be completely low to the ground!
"But seeing that you are so pious, I will give you some at a loss! Let's help future generations! ”
Mao Yuyang suddenly looked radiant, looked at the old man with a smile on his face, and asked, "Really! ”
"It's still fake!"
Mao Yuyang took a bundle of rice paper from the old man's hand, there were almost a hundred sheets!
Jumped for joy!
Mao Yuyang took a bundle of rice paper, came to the old grandmother's firewood room, unfolded it, and looked at the tender white paper. And that inkstone! What do you think you should write?
At the beginning, I didn't know what to write? I remembered that I saw the Taoist priest on the street during the day writing some couplets and some ink paintings! Thinking that ink painting is not a matter of one or two days, I still want to write some couplets!
Write some auspicious words and Wishing you prosperity! Those business owners who want to get a good fortune may be happy and buy a few! If you have an idea, you can write it down!
At this time, it was one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, and the old grandmother called the firewood room a bright light. Thinking about it, what is this young man busy with! It's so late. I don't sleep either!
So he walked over and was about to knock on the door. Remind him to go to bed early, don't be so discouraged if you don't find a job, tomorrow will be early! But in front of the window, I saw him writing on a broken table, surrounded by couplets that were tied here and there with pebbles!
Suddenly relieved, it seems that this kid has finally started stealing! Slowly knowing how to make a living, I slowly walked back and went back to my room to sleep!
Mao Yuyang heard a knock on the door, and thought to himself that it was so late, who would knock on the door! Could it be that he is so late, holding the candle must be for the grandmother to see, how is this good, thinking about how to explain it! Slowly walked to the door, lowered his head and opened the door, but did not see the figure of the old grandmother!
Looking up again, the grandmother's distant back slowly walked towards her room, but there was a fragrance overflowing from below, and she looked down again! It turned out to be two steamed buns and a bowl of hot porridge, and when I held it in my hand, I was suddenly overflowing with tears, and my hands trembled!
Mao Yuyang lowered his head and said, "Grandma, I will definitely be angry, you wait and see!" ”
……
Early the next morning, the market!
The Taoist priest got up a little late on this day because he drank a little more last night, but he came to the street! But I found that the place where I used to set up a stall was occupied! And it's still the same calligraphy and painting as himself, and a green-headed young boy comes out of it!
So I don't know where the anger comes from! This is really unreasonable, grabbing the job and grabbing my head! So he rushed over, grabbed the calligraphy and asked, "Whose is this?" ”
"Mine!" A human head emerged from the pile of calligraphy and paintings, and this person was Mao Yuyang!
"Who wants you to set up a stall here!"
"Isn't this the street? Everybody can put it up! ”
"You don't go out to inquire, these ten miles and eight towns, I, Huang, have been doing business here for ten years, and no one has ever dared to break my platform! This is my territory, do you know the rules! After the zodiac man finished speaking, he picked up the couplet and tore it up!
Mao Yuyang was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped it, and kept pushing his hand, but after saving one piece, he tore another one! In the end, under his desperate escort, only a third of them were rescued!
Mao Yuyang took a handful of tears and snot, and looked at the zodiac man: "This is your place, you have to tell me!" I can give it back to you, but you can't tear up all my couplets! I'm counting on it to sell for two bucks and survive! ”
"Go, go, don't pretend to be pathetic to me! If you don't teach you a lesson, you won't know how powerful! I thought it was your home, and I could do whatever I wanted! ”
"What a pathetic young man!"
"This person really shouldn't be! Talk to this guy well, isn't it! Why tear up someone else's eating guy......"
"This person shouldn't be!"
The crowd around them talked in groups, and some said good things about people, but there were more condemnations, and more pity for the miserable situation of the young man!
At this time, the Taoist can be angry, and he shouted: "What is there to see, go and ......"
With a burst of explosion, the onlookers dispersed!
A few people couldn't stand it, so they stuffed a few small coins for Mao Yuyang, and 'spit' at the Taoist: "It's great to be educated!" It's really talented, so I'm going to be a big official in the court! It will be reduced to this, setting up a stall on the street! ”
"Go, go, go!" The Taoist scolded for a while!
The onlookers are scattered!
Mao Yuyang came to the opposite side of the street with the remaining couplets in his arms, watched the man stand up, erected his calligraphy and paintings one by one, and greeted passers-by with a smile to do business!
I looked at my broken couplets again, and some rescued couplets, and suddenly the unstoppable tears flowed down! He was grief-stricken, this was the hard work he had spent a night writing, and he had hoped that he could exchange it for two dollars, but he didn't expect that all this terrible Taoist people would be torn up!
How is he not in a hurry! Watching the Taoist look at himself with a smile on his face, and unfolding the fan, slowly fanning the wind, what a pleasure!
Don't let this anger out! Fuck, I don't believe it, I can't do him yet, isn't he just a bull-nosed veteran, what kind of ability does he have! But I can just write a few words, and I can do this too!
So across the street, the remaining calligraphy and paintings were re-erected! Then he stared at him with wide eyes, then pointed at him, and said with arrogant contempt in his heart: "What do you see, Lao Tzu is going to fight against you today!" I don't believe you can overshadow Lao Tzu! ”
This provocation can make the Taoist so angry that he got off the Taishi chair, Huo Di stood up and put away the fan! Yili pointed at the drizzle, as if to say, boy, you are dying! If you want to die, I won't stop you! I'm here to see how you died!
Mao Yuyang watched the Taoist finger fan fly sideways, and also pressed against him viciously, "Why, I'll carry it with you!" ’
At this time, the Taoist was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he kept fanning himself with a fan!
Mao Yuyang ignored him anymore, set up a table, and began to write!
But it was one morning, and no one came. Occasionally, two people watched from a distance, but shook their heads and walked away! Looking across the street, there was an endless stream of customers in front of the stall!
At this time, the man took the pen and received a big hook!
"Wong Tai Sin, you really did a good job of drawing a hook! Powerful, the pen is strong, the hook is domineering, and I will be lucky at a glance! A rich man in cotton satin next to him laughed!
"Master Rong, good eyes! Write for you, how can you not care! This couplet is a good intention, which means that Master Rong will have a lot of money in the coming year! ”
"Thanks! Thank you! Master Rong took the painting from his hand, and watched his subordinates hand over a large piece of silver!
The zodiac man took it, immediately put it in his sleeve, and waved his hand at Master Rong with a smile!
In this way, the zodiac sent away another plucking guest, and there were already four or five such guests! Plus some others who come to ask for words, there are more than a dozen pulls!
The zodiac man put away the pen and paper very happily, looked up at the other side of the street, and looked at Mao Yuyang's side coldly, and Mao Yuyang looked at him like a long drought and nectar!
The zodiac man smiled at the drizzle: "Boy, your writing is still a little tender!" It's better to go back and practice for ten or twenty years before you come back and grab business with me! The zodiac man laughed so much that his stomach hurt, and then pointed to Mao Yuyang and said: "I don't make trouble with you, you look at my belly, I was hungry after only one morning." I won't delay you either, I'll go eat some before I come! You're going to eat some wind here, which will make your face a little more vicissitudes! That way, you can't be sure that someone will buy your paintings! ”
The zodiac man simply cleaned up the calligraphy and paintings on the table, and went to buy something to eat! (To be continued......)
