7 The importance of praise
A few days later, the Lu family workshop.
Lu Zhi has been supervising the work for the past few days, urging the craftsmen to complete the orders at hand as soon as possible, and the workshop has not continued to take orders.
The apprentice is still cleaning up, Lu Zhi and a few craftsmen are squatting at the door, all of them have their ears pricked up and have a match to speak, the majority of people who cross are very qualified, used to everyone being equal, and there is no shelf.
"You said it's almost the New Year, who doesn't have some new furniture, it is said to be the peak season, but this Lu family workshop doesn't do business, don't you want to do it?"
The guys from a few nearby shops and some passers-by got together to gossip, and the one who spoke looked at the workshop while talking, Lu Zhi and a few craftsmen didn't have to listen to it, this was not a hint at all, and they almost said that they wanted to make furniture.
"You don't know this, the Lu family is not quitting, they are preparing to do it."
"Huh? I don't even know about the door, how do you know? ”
"Hey, it's all spreading, the old man of the Lu family drank too much, and he didn't hold his breath."
"Shhhh The craftsmen and masters were obviously listening to the root of the wall, and a shrewd reminder came closer and said that a group of people had gathered together, and the center was the one who broke the news just now.
"Yes, yes, yes." This one spoke even more excessively, stood on tiptoe and looked vigilantly at the Lu family, and nodded the craftsman's head with his hand, "One, two, seven, eight, a total of eight are all here, go on, I'll help you watch." That being said, he had squeezed into the crowd for a while.
The whistleblower felt that someone was dragging him, "Don't drag it, just watch the sea building, say what to get the ancestral inheritance, there will be a god craftsman in the future, no, I think the temple is small, this is to be expanded." ”
"Ahem, it's all a trifle, do you know anything else?" The interrogator covered half of his face with his sleeve and coughed twice from time to time.
"Why don't you know? Isn't it about the third son of the Lu family, I heard that Lu Gongzi drank too much at that time, and halfway through the meal, he improvised a poem in the No. 1 room of Tianzi with a wine jug. "Tianzi No. 1 room is the highest and best room in Guanhai Building.
"What's so strange about that?"
"Listen to me, that poem is nothing, the rest is exciting, maybe a poem is not enough to vent the emotions in my heart, Lu Gongzi later pushed open the window and yelled outside."
"Wow, drunk? There are so many people on the street, and the Lu family didn't pull a little? ”
"Who said that it wasn't pulled, it wasn't pulled, let me tell you, at that time, Lu Gongzi's face was red, his eyes were foggy, but his legs and feet were not slow, he kicked a few steps to the window and pushed it violently, and he went to the sea view upstairs to stop like this."
"Oops, that must have caused onlookers!"
The whistleblower was very comfortable, "You are right, I saw that Lu Gongzi first pulled his clothes and took a breath, and then shouted hundreds of words, and finally fell upstairs drunk, if it weren't for his second brother's quick eyes, maybe Lu Gongzi would have fallen." ”
I'll go, drama spirit! Lu Zhi was a little distressed, what was the urgency of the workshop, why didn't he go with him at that time! "It's a shame that I wasn't there."
"That's not it, hey, don't interrupt, there's more exciting, just a few hundred words, the people inside and outside the building are stupid, the guests in the sea viewing building are amazing! It is said that at that time, several talented people in our Xuanwu City were partying, and they were fascinated by what they heard. ”
"Especially the sentence 'the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world' came out, one by one they all admired this Lu Gongzi so much that they went to visit the Tianzi No. 1 room together, but unfortunately Lu Gongzi was drunk at the time, and later shirked studying at home, and he didn't see anyone until now."
"Really?"
At this time, another person stood up, "It's true, I was at the scene at the time, as soon as Lu Gongzi's "The Story of Guanhai Tower" came out, I am afraid that it will be famous in the entire Yue Kingdom, and maybe someone in the Wu Kingdom will spread it." ”
"You don't know yet, now those young ladies have a share, and they are all talking about it, saying that our Xuanwu City is finally going to have a champion."
"Just one article can win the top prize? How can it be so simple, we have many talents in the country, so we say that there are four great talents in the capital...... "This is a writing gentleman, he failed the imperial examination, and when he is old, he helps people write letters to make a living."
"Old gentleman, you don't want to grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige, I have a manuscript of "The Story of Guanhai Tower", don't you believe it?"
"Come, the old man wants to see what level it is, and he is still the champion?" The writer held the manuscript in his hand and carefully flipped through it, and the literati were only light on the verbal light, and the true literati of a good work were often regarded as treasures.
"Good, good!" The old gentleman's blood surged, and he felt that he was several years younger, and recited a passage in the street, "Husband! To taste the heart of the ancient benevolence, or the difference between the two, what is it? Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself; The height of the temple is worried about the people; Far away from the rivers and lakes, you are worried about it. It is a worry about advancing and a worry about retreating. But when will it be? It must say: "The worries of the world are worried, and the joy of the world is happy." Belch! Weisi people, who am I with? ”
"Okay, what a good Lu Gongzi who worries about the world, where is this Lu Gongzi now?"
"Of course it's the Lu family!"
Mr. Writing was about to leave, but he was pulled by someone, "Hugh has to rely on my "Guanhai Tower". ”
"Give it, give it, give it all to you!" The old gentleman stuffed the money bag into the man's arms, and he had already seen that this was a book seller on the street, and if it wasn't for the urgency of time, he must bargain well.
"If it's not so much, ten cents a piece, we don't want more, we have to talk about a child who is not deceived when doing business, how about it? Get a copy? This is the article of the future champion! ”
"My manuscript is good in pen, ink and paper, and I don't suffer a loss when I buy one, maybe it will appreciate in the future, but I can't sell it for more money, and I keep it at home, so that the younger generations can follow it, and I can't say that I can become a talent."
This is to start trading on the street, but there are few responders, regardless of what you say, there are all businessmen here, listen to the excitement, and want to take money out of their pockets? That's a never-ending no.
The craftsmen of the Lu family's workshop returned to the workshop, they didn't care about any shocking articles, they were all carefully looking at Lu Zhi, the other sons of the Lu family never came to the workshop, the only possibility was Lu Zhi, but this left and right didn't look like a god craftsman, and he was sneaky like a thief.
With a rhythm and a good addiction to teasing, Lu Zhi returned to the door of the workshop and squatted down again, squinting his eyes and nodding secretly, it seems that whether it is another world or not, the hearts of the people discussing gossip are equally hot.
The people who eat melons will always be there.
