Chapter 42: Buying a Painting

This question made Ji Qingran scratch his head, "I don't know, I don't know anything about martial arts, but the eldest brother loves to draw, and the eldest brother's painting is very good, you can ask him." ”

I asked, and he said he didn't know him, so depressed. ”

"If the eldest brother doesn't know each other, then he shouldn't be famous, what are you looking for this person for?"

Chu Ge said disappointedly, "It's not famous, won't it?"

If you don't have a reputation, it's hard to do, the world is so big, how to find it?

But on second thought, the tasks are all treasures, and it's impossible to find a garbage painting that is not famous.

"If I want to buy paintings, where should I go?"

Ji Qingran said with a smile, "Of course it's the painting street, it's full of famous paintings, and the good paintings of the whole country are there, and you can buy whatever you want!"

"There's such a nice place, I want to see it!"

Ji Qingran looked at her expectant eyes and said in surprise, "You won't, you want me to take you there, right?"

"Uh-huh, that's what it means, are you busy right now?"

"It's not busy, it's just ......" Ji Qingran scratched his scalp wildly, "I'm afraid that my eldest brother will be unhappy." ”

"What are you afraid of, if he asks, you will say, I forced you to take me there, I don't know the way. ”

Ji Qingran was a little shaken, "That's it, in fact, the eldest brother didn't say that he wouldn't let him out, but can you do it physically?"

"It's good, he just said that there is no need for internal strength again, a bowl of medicine every day, just hold on for a while, my body is recovering well, because I am young." ”

Ji Qingran nodded, "That's fine, if you really want to go, I'll accompany you." ”

"Okay, let's go now. By the way, I'll change to men's clothes first. ”

Chu Ge found the men's clothes he used last time, changed them, took care of his hair again, and followed Ji Qing to dye them out.

Painting Street is a street that mainly sells calligraphy and painting, brush and ink, and in modern terms, it is the largest calligraphy and painting market in the country!

Chu Ge shook his head and fanned, listened to Ji Qingran's introduction, and nodded from time to time, "Yes, if all the best works in the country are here, you will definitely be able to find Si Rong'an's paintings, but there are so many shops, if you ask one by one, when do you have to ask?"

"You don't need to ask one by one, just find out the one with the best business, their family has the most goods, basically what others have, he has it, and what others don't have, he also has!"

"Okay, do you know which one?"

Ji Qingran nodded, "It's not far ahead, and my eldest brother often comes over to buy pen and ink, so I know a little bit." ”

"Hehe, yes, yes, you are really reliable, whoever marries you in the future will be blessed. ”

Ji Qingran was praised by her and blushed for a while, and he was a little fluttering, and his heart was full of joy, but the reality made him unhappy, and the woman he was excited about was actually his sister-in-law, which was not in line with etiquette.

Put away your mood and take Chu Ge to a shop called Famous Painting Workshop, the store is really super big, from the inside of the house to the outside of the floor, there are all kinds of famous paintings hanging on top of each other, and the people who come to buy pen and ink calligraphy and painting are also endless, and several juniors are so busy that they fly.

Chu Ge shook his head and walked in, only staring at the payment to find it, at this time, a clever junior ran over, "This son, what kind of painting do you want? As long as you say it, we have all the famous painting workshops!"

"My son is looking for a painting signed for Si Rong'an, do you have it?"

Xiao Er frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Si Rong'an, this person's painting is not easy to find." ”

"What? Is it famous? Is she closed? Or is she dead?"

"No, this person is quite mysterious, a legendary figure, no one has really seen her, but as long as anyone has seen her paintings, they are amazed, therefore, for a while, many people came to ask about her paintings, but the real works are hard to find, this son also heard what people said, right?"

"Yes. It's so suspenseful, of course this son wants to see the real face and see if it's like a legend, so it seems that there are no paintings of her in your store?"

Xiao Er was just about to speak, but the boss answered, "Yes, yes, why not? As long as the son wants, there will definitely be!"

Chu Ge smiled, "Is there really one?" ”

The boss smiled and said, "Yes, but her paintings are too expensive, the price is high, and it is difficult to get them, so there are no them in the store, if you want, you can make a deposit first, and come to get them in a few days!"

"Well, how much deposit do you need?"

The boss replied, "At least 5,000 taels, you pay 2,000 first, and then make up 3,000 when the goods arrive!"

Chu Ge was furious, "You robbed five thousand taels, do you dare to say higher?"

The boss sneered, "This famous painting is expensive, this is still valuable, more famous paintings are priceless, you can't buy it with money, girl, if you sincerely want to buy it, then don't say it's expensive, if it's too expensive, you can't buy a good painting." ”

With that, he ignored her.

Chu Ge gritted her teeth angrily, but in order to complete the second task, she could only buy it, but five thousand taels was too much, she couldn't take out so much money, and thought that at most a few hundred taels, she would bring fifty taels of silver with her.

In fact, fifty taels is really a huge amount of money here, but I didn't expect that I couldn't even buy a painting.

However, things like famous paintings have always been very expensive, and in modern times, a piece can cost millions of dollars, and a good painting is indeed expensive.

Ji Qingran looked at her disappointed face and asked, "Is it because of money?" If you want, I'll buy it for you." ”

Chu Ge blinked his eyes and asked, "Really? Five thousand taels, it's not a small amount!"

"It's okay, it's hard to buy you happy, as long as you're happy. ”

"When I borrow yours, I'll save the money and pay you back." ”

Ji Qingran smiled, "Am I the kind of person who cares? You are my sister-in-law, buy things for you, and still need to pay back?

After the words fell, Ji Qingran called directly, "Boss, let's pay the deposit, can we come to get the goods in about a few days?"

"Three days!"

Ji Qingran took out the silver ticket from his arms and slapped it on the table, "This is two thousand, we will come back in three days!"

The boss happily accepted the money, "Okay, what else do you need?"

Ji Qingran looked at Chu Ge, and Chu Ge waved his hand and said, "No need." ”

Walking out of the famous painting workshop, Chu Ge still felt a pain in his flesh, "It's so expensive, a broken painting is worth five thousand taels, and many people can't make so much money in their lifetime." ”

"Most people don't earn that much in their lifetime. ”

Ji Qingran accompanied her to walk slowly, walked slowly, he liked this feeling very much, being able to accompany her like this, it could make her happy, five thousand taels was worth it!

"Wow, sugar gourd!" Chu Ge suddenly looked at the sugar gourd on the side of the road, and screamed happily, the first day she came here, she saw it, and she didn't have money to buy it at that time, so she felt that it must be super delicious.

Ji Qingran smiled, "You wait, I'll buy it for you!"

After the words fell, the person had already passed through the layers of crowds and walked towards the vendor selling sugar gourds, Chu Ge obediently stood in place and waited for him, looking at him expectantly, smiling happily.
