Chapter 234: The Daughter Is Not Selling

"You just look at it, you don't have to ask her." Lu Jingshuo said with a sincere face:

"It's not the first time we've dealt with each other, so why bother like this?"

"Then I'll give you 1,700 taels of silver to buy your two paintings, are you willing?" After the shopkeeper said this, his appreciative eyes fell on the "Pine Crane Picture", which is indeed worth more than a thousand taels of silver.

When Lu Jingshuo heard this, he was very happy in his heart, but he still held back and didn't show it on his face. Faintly said:

"For the sake of how much you really like these two paintings, I'll sell them to you for her."

The shopkeeper thanked him, took the two paintings, and put them in a quaint wooden box. After paying Lu Jingshuo, he put it in the inner room.

Lu Jingshuo walked out of the bookstore and remembered what the shopkeeper said:

"Sixth Prince Jing, please forgive me for not being able to speak, don't be angry. But I'm telling the truth, for these two paintings painted by your relatives, you just asked me to pay ten taels of silver for one piece, and I don't want to buy them. ”

Lu Jingshuo's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of embarrassment.

Although the shopkeeper is telling the truth, his relative is his uncle after all.

The shopkeeper may have realized that he himself was not tactful enough when he spoke. He glanced at Lu Jingshuo awkwardly and explained:

"You and I have known each other for so long, and we have only known each other for three or two days. You know, I'm not too harsh. And I am not a man who will say things against his will in order to make anyone happy. ”

"That's it." Lu Jingshuo nodded knowingly and said:

"Of course you're not that kind of person, you're a very sincere person."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled lightly and said:

"I don't think you went to the next few bookstores, and you didn't ask the shopkeepers in other shops. It can be seen that you trust me very much. I spoke a little straighter......"

"That's how it should be." Lu Jingshuo saw that the shopkeeper was so cautious, and he felt a little embarrassed.

Aren't they just two paintings?

If you can't sell it for thirty taels of silver, you won't be able to sell it. It's really nothing.

The shopkeeper in this shop said so, and the shopkeeper in the other shops, he wouldn't ask. Because he knew that a few shopkeepers over there would not give a high price.

He had been to several other shops before, chatted with the shopkeepers in those shops, and purchased things in those shops.

He almost knows a little bit about the shopkeepers of these shops. Counting, among the shopkeepers, the shopkeeper of this shop is the most generous.

The shopkeepers of this shop can't afford to pay a high price, let alone the shopkeepers in those shops?

Lu Jingshuo put away the two paintings painted by Lu Juncheng, and thought about a question in his heart: Of these two paintings, none of them is worth thirty taels of silver.

The person who spent thirty taels of silver before to buy his uncle's painting was a little different in appreciation? Or is it because that person and his uncle have known each other for a long time, and it was just because it was not easy for his uncle to see that he took the opportunity to buy paintings and give his uncle a lot of money?

Lu Jingshuo frowned slightly.

He's been too busy lately to care about his uncle and them. Now I can find time to care, but I found a problem, some things, it is not very simple.

Lu Jingshuo heard a soft laugh, raised his eyes, and saw several women walking to the door of the bookstore.

The woman at the head was dressed in crimson and wore a white veil. Only a pair of thick eyebrows and a pair of large deep eyes are exposed.

Before the woman walked into the bookstore, she glanced back at him, and her eyes revealed infinite charm and tenderness. He was sick when he saw it!

He didn't know the woman, but she was too unreserved.

Lu Jingshuo held back the discomfort in his heart, calmly stepped forward, and rushed to the place where he had tied his horse before, so that he could meet Lin Yue there.

The veiled woman took several women with her, and only walked into the bookstore after Lu Jingshuo left the bookstore.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore saw a woman wearing a veil again, and she didn't want to say hello.

But the woman walked to the counter and told the shopkeeper straightforwardly:

“…… Sell me all the calligraphy and paintings that the boy sold you. ”

When the shopkeeper heard the woman's words, he couldn't help but look at the woman suspiciously, and asked, "...... this guest officer?"

The official dialect of the imperial city spoken by the woman was mixed with the accent of Quezhou dialect. It seems that this woman is from Quezhou.

This Yanzhou and Quezhou are at least thousands of miles apart, can the aesthetics of the people in the two places be the same?

The people of Yanzhou like pictures of pine cranes, because the pine cranes prolong their lives, which are not only auspicious, but also can be used as a symbol of longevity.

But he knew that the people over there in Quezhou generally liked eagles. The people of Quezhou regard the eagle as a divine eagle, and the degree of worship of it can exceed the imagination of ordinary people.

The shopkeeper didn't want to sell the two paintings, because he bought them for a lot of money and collected them. But in front of this Quezhou woman, she still tried her best to be tactful.

When the woman heard this, she asked unhappily:

"Didn't you buy it for 1,700 taels of silver? I'll give you two thousand taels of gold for the two paintings that the boy brought and sold to you. It's not going to hurt you. ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he only felt that the air in the room had become stinky, and it was full of copper stench. So he frowned in disgust.

The veiled woman didn't care what the shopkeeper thought, but only thought about buying the two paintings, so she turned around and waved at the women standing behind her. As a sign to them:

Why don't you go and bring the gold!

Two of the women standing behind the woman quickly understood what the woman meant. So they all walked out of the shop quickly, and when they got out of the door, they trotted to the side of the carriage.

Opening the carriage of the carriage and quickly getting into the carriage, the two of them worked together to carry out a large box of gold.

Soon, the two women carried a box of gold into the bookstore.

The shopkeeper didn't look at the chest of gold, or even ignored it. Those two boxes of gold, where is the calligraphy and painting in his collection important?

How can his ideological realm be understood by those who are ordinary people?

The veiled woman saw the shopkeeper, and after seeing her big box, she was a little unmoved. While laughing at the shopkeeper's lack of vision in his heart, he didn't forget to ask the shopkeeper:

"Why, with so much gold, you don't have enough?"

The shopkeeper held back the unhappiness in his heart and explained to the veiled woman:

"This little lady, I have just explained, the two calligraphy and paintings I bought from that son are used by me to collect. I don't sell! ”

When the woman heard this, a trace of sarcasm crossed her eyes, and then she raised a pair of thick eyebrows and said to the shopkeeper:

"If you keep that painting until the day you die, I'm afraid it won't be worth so much gold. Why did you open a bookstore, not to make money? So why do you have to get along with money? ”

The shopkeeper glanced at the woman coldly, and warned the other party with his eyes:

Don't think you're going to have a lot of bad money.

I really didn't open a bookstore to make money.

The shopkeeper tapped the counter with his index finger and said:

"Everyone has their own aspirations. Do all the people who open shops do it to make money? Of course not. There is a way that is not speculative for more than half a sentence, little lady, forgive me for not explaining. ”
