Chapter 12 Competition?
Ye Qiyun is the brother of Ye Ying, the legendary short-lived fiancΓ©e of Lian Baitang. There was surprise and a little embarrassment in his expression, and he reluctantly smiled: "Bai Tang? I heard that Songchikuzhai has been doing good business recently, congratulations. β
"It's just a little bit better." In front of the future brother-in-law, Bai Tang naturally has to be humble. He saw that Ye Qiyun had fair skin and good appearance, and he thought that Ye Ying's appearance should not be bad.
Ye Qiyun was even more shocked, this bastard boy has really grown?! Don't be pretending, right? The parents were grateful to Lian Baitang, and always felt that if he was not willing to marry the dying sister at the time, the sister would not have turned the corner. It was because of Lian Baitang's previous reputation, no matter how ridiculous it was, his parents were patient, waiting for his prodigal son to turn back. Now that I heard that he worshiped the famous teacher, when he saw a hint of morning light, he was a sister - he frowned slightly, and the man who came with him had already laughed: "Yo, this is the clothes that Young Master Lian picked?" What a change of character! β
Ye Qiyun gently pushed him with his elbow: "Jianming!"
Gao Jianming is the descendant of the Gao family, a family of engraving that is as famous as the Lian family.
This time the relief paper was born, and Gao Jianming was anxious to seize the market, and he also followed the trend and carved several editions. The engraving master of the Gao family has good craftsmanship, and the flower notes produced are exquisite and refined.
When he heard that other shops were forced to come to the door one by one to apologize, he was full of disdain in his heart.
Unexpectedly, after Songzhu Zhai finished cleaning up those small shops, he would start with his Gao family's Baogu Zhai with his hands free! The Gao family came out with a new pair of flower notes, and it didn't take long for Songzhu Zhai to imitate a similar version of flower notes. The most hateful thing is that the imitation of Songzhu Zhai is more exquisite and newer, and the price is cheap! As a result, their own embossed flower notes are gradually uncared for!
How could Gao Jianming swallow this breath?
He hated Lian Baitang in his heart. I happened to meet today, how could I let it go easily?
"Are you sure Young Master Lian didn't buy the wrong clothes?" Gao Jianming smiled and asked the junior in the store, "I think the ones upstairs are suitable for him!" β
On the second floor of the clothing store, women's clothing is sold. Xiao Er didn't dare to talk when he boarded. Ye Qiyun's face was slightly gloomy, and he opened his mouth to persuade, but he pursed his mouth tightly.
Bai Tang stared at him sideways.
The oblique phoenix eyes instantly shone with cold light, Gao Jianming's heart trembled, and he unconsciously felt a little empty.
As if hearing a soft laugh, Lian Baitang didn't pay attention to him, and only said goodbye to Ye Qiyun.
Gao Jianming's face was pale: Is he despised by the infamous practitioner who has no learning and no skills? ! remembered that Lian Bai Jin praised Bai Tang's ability and ingenuity in front of him, as if he could surpass him and the Gao family with a relief technique! Disgusting!
Ye Qiyun was also secretly frightened: Identifying the Taituo is big, practicing Baitang's kindness!
"Lian Baitang!" Gao Jianming chased after him with a blushing face, "You stop!" β
"Identification?!" Ye Qiyun hurriedly grabbed him, "What are you doing?!" β
Gao Jianming laughed angrily: "Lian Baitang." Don't think that if you get a master, it's great to make a relief letter. Nanjing City Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, master like a cloud. What's your little trick? β
Lian Baitang said lightly without looking back: "It's really nothing." β
Gao Jianming punched the iron plate and punched the cotton, which aroused his anger that had been accumulated for a long time: "Lian Baitang, do you dare to compare with me?" β
Bai Tang frowned, looked him up and down, and didn't say a word, but the emotions in his eyes were clear, as if to say: By you?
Gao Jianming clenched his fists and said loudly: "Your grandfather is the benchmark of our engraving industry, and we sincerely worship him." Lian Baitang, you are a person who practices the family, and you worship a famous teacher. Whether it's painting or carving, it's hard for you. β
Lian Baitang secretly thought, this guy's grudge against himself seems to be a little thick. Just because of the previous flower note?
Gao Jianming saw that he was silent, thinking that he was weak-hearted, and he was more confident: "You don't even know how to hold a paintbrush or how to hold a carving knife, right?" β
The corners of Bai Tang's lips hooked slightly, and his eyes were still cold: "Since it's a competition, there must always be a colorful head, right?" β
"My Gao family has a set of "Hugu Zhai Picture Book". It is the painstaking work of Gaojia painters for many years! Gao Jianming's face showed pride, "If I lose, I will give you this set of paintings!" But if you loseβ" he defiantly defied, "what do you have to lose to me?" β
Lian Baitang let out a long sigh, quite excited. The hundred-year-old store of Baoguzhai, his family's painting collection, is also the most envied thing in his peers. He half-lowered his eyes and pondered, and said as if it were true or false: "I practice Baitang and I am poor and white, except for the Songzhu Zhai under my name, there is probably no thing that the senior brother can see." β
Gao Jianming squinted his eyes and said in a long voice: "How could it not be? Songzhu Zhai has been producing good works recently. Your master, Mr. Xu, also has a lot of albums, right? β
Bai Tang is secretly funny! This is the real purpose of the other party - the idea of beating his "master"!
He smiled slightly: "That's it! My master's collection of masterpieces is innumerable. He also specially traced a set of pictures of flowers and birds for me. Record the works of famous teachers in the world. Even Song Huizong's "Crane Picture" and "Five-colored Parrot Picture" are also among them. My master's pen power is extraordinary, and all kinds of fine subtleties are like real works! β
Gao Jianming and Ye Qiyun were shocked!
Lian Baitang doesn't talk nonsense, right?
Well, this son is just talking nonsense! Bai Tang snickered, as if he was afraid that they would not believe it, and added seriously: "When my master copied the "Five-colored Parrot Picture", the parrot's eyes were always empty and undrawn. It wasn't until the whole picture was drawn that the finishing touch was made with raw lacquer. The parrot bird, no matter how far or near, has eyes that move as if they were alive! β
Lacquer finishing touch! This kind of painting skills, how can you know such waste wood as Baitang? It must have been Xu Danling who taught him! Gao Jianming's face was so excited that his face turned red!
"This album will be your color head!" Gao Jianming hammered the final word.
Bai Tang hesitated for a moment, and responded: "Okay! β
Seeing Bai Tang fall into his trap step by step, Gao Jianming was even more proud. "I've been waiting a long time to hear your master's name. Why don't you ask your master to come with us and make a judgment for us? β
The peers in the capital, who don't know that Lian Baitang has won the favor of a master. However, everyone searched openly and secretly, but they didn't find any trace of the master! For the Gao family, Xu Danling's existence is a great threat: the Lian family and the Gao family are now quite comparable, but if the Lian family has Xu Danling's help, it is tantamount to adding wings to the tiger. Therefore, the Gao family had to seize every opportunity to find out the news of this Master Xu.
Really TMD greedy insufficient! Bai Tang sneered, can Lao Tzu still lose to you, a hairy boy?
"A little competition, how can I work my master?" Bai Tang said loudly, "Thanks to the son of the Qin family in Jiangnan, he can afford it, and invite me to the meeting in half a month to enjoy the carved solitary painting." β
Gao Jianming and Ye Qiyun were incredible: "You? You were also invited? "This can't be! Is the son of the Qin family blind?
"Why don't you and I have a showdown at Gongzi Qin's tea party?" Since you want to play, play big! In front of the public, the Qin family's house in Jiangnan is not afraid that your Gao family will dare to do anything!
How can Gao Jianming allow him to be anti-customer-oriented? Knowing that this matter is a big problem, he can only bite the bullet: "Okay! β
Ye Qiyun was stunned and swallowed his saliva: "You, you, seriously?" β
Lian Baitang's long sleeves were lightly brushed, and his voice was like a rock: "A gentleman is a promise, and the five mountains are light!" β
For some reason, a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on Gao Jianming's back.
Ye Qiyun asked hesitantly: "Then what do you plan to compare?" β
Gao Jianming had already calculated that Lian Baitang would only work hard with the master for a year at most, how could it be compared with his many years of skill?
"To do our engraving business, one is copying, and the other is carving! Lian Baitang, don't say that I Gao Jianming bullied you. You choose one of your own. β
Bai Tang shook his head lightly: "Since I know that I have worshiped a famous teacher, Gao Gongzi still dares to trust me like this!" Courage is commendable. β
Gao Jianming's heart moved: "I won't bully you either!" Since your family is good at making paper, let's compare Xue Tao's paper! β
Lian Baitang couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, and there was indifference and ridicule on his face: Xue Tao's notes are particular about materials, and the process is complicated. So far, it is still the most prestigious area in Shuzhong where Xue Tao lives in seclusion and makes paper. The capital is not unimitated, but the color is not as elegant as Shu paper, and the paper is not as crystal clear as Shu paper. As for his Songzhu Zhai, what he did was just a business of reselling the four treasures of the study and books, Gao Jianming took this as a competition, and said not to bully himself, this cheeky, tsk. A whole mille-feuille cake (high) - thick skin!
Gao Jianming didn't know that Lian Baitang secretly gave himself a nickname. My heart is already nervous!
"That's it, goodbye to our Qin Mansion!"
Ye Qiyun is still like in a dream, how did things become like this? He hurried home, and he must tell his father about this, so that he can make a decision as soon as possible, and he must not be indecisive again!
