Chang Le sat in the room, his chin propped up, facing the candle flame, his brows furrowed.

"Madame, what do you want?"

Ten miles distressed and leaned over.

"I'm wondering, what kind of temperament are you ancients, and how can I do what I like." Chang Le said plainly, and his heart was not good for a long time, he touched his chin, suddenly turned his head, and stared at Shili, "Have you noticed in the past two days that in those art shops, what paintings sell the fastest and most expensive?" ”

Shili tried to recall and said happily: "Madam, it's a landscape painting." Today, a man bought a landscape painting for 30 taels. ”

Chang Le sank, patted his hands on the case, as if it took a lot of strength to drag his heavy body up, blinked his eyes, and said unadmittedly: "Then let's try again!" ”

The topography of Taishoufu is considered to be the height of the thirteen counties. Chang Le climbed on the roof, overlooked the peaks and mountains, sat in the cold wind, and painted for several hours.

After the painting, Chang Le was already cold and stiff, and almost rolled off the room.

"This time, Lao Tzu is desperate, and he has to earn a lot of money!" Chang Le hid in the quilt and couldn't stop shivering, and when he looked up, he scolded the sky, "If you don't let me sell the painting again, then you will be too ruthless!" ”

Chang Le has been sitting on the bed, tightly wrapped in the quilt, pricking up his ears, and listening carefully to the movements in the courtyard. At the slightest movement in the courtyard, she ran out to see. The whole person was startled, and ran back and forth in front of the bed door.

When Changle was about to have a nervous breakdown, Shili came back.

This time, she returned empty-handed.

Chang Le suddenly looked forward to it, jumped out of the quilt with a "whoosh", swallowed his saliva to moisten his throat, and asked in the first sentence: "How much did it sell?" ”

Shili's expression was also a lot more relaxed, and he smiled and stretched out two fingers towards Chang Le.

Knowing that she was not comparing "yes", Chang Le's eyes lit up and blurted out: "Twenty taels? ”

"Madame really dare to think, guess again."

Chang Le twisted his eyebrows: "That's ...... Two two? Seeing her smile and stretch into her arms, she thought she had guessed right, and couldn't help but wait with her eyes wide open.

Shili's expression was mysterious and exaggerated, his hand reached into the money bag, touched and touched it as if he was digging out his heart and lungs, and slowly took out his hand from his arms, giving people a feeling of magnifying his moves.

She stretched out her hand in front of Chang Le, who was full of anticipation, and with a twist of her wrist, she spread her palm suddenly. The two copper plates in the palm of his hand suddenly saw the light and emitted a crystal brilliance.

Chang Le was a little confused in an instant, and he felt like he was being played, but his ears were full of satisfied voices.

"Madam, it was sold for two cents. It's small, but it's finally the money. ”

Chang Le didn't know the joys and sorrows, but when he heard her say this, he cherished the two copper plates from her hands, and sighed pitifully: "Two pennies are also money." ”

"Yes." Shili looked at the two pennies, and felt more comfortable in his heart, and after a while, he began to worry again, "But madam, we sell embroidery more than this." ”

It's okay not to mention it for ten miles, but as soon as he mentioned it, Chang Le's eyelids jumped, and the anger that he had been holding back for a long time finally couldn't help but spill out.

"That's not how I sell comics!"

Seeing that Shili was frightened, Chang Le stabilized his emotions, held his forehead very painfully and sighed, and comforted himself: "That life is so oppressive, you can't hurry up and put it away if you have some sweetness...... Oh my God, have I been so desperate for being suppressed by life? ”

"What slow drawing? Ten miles away, it's still easy to fight concubines. Or, let's change careers? Otherwise, this will have to be sold until the Year of the Monkey, and your hands will not be able to hold it. ”

"What's there that can't hold your hand?"

Chang Le was unhappy, so he subconsciously took the yellow cavity and diverted his attention. Seeing that Shili didn't react, Chang Le realized that the times are different now. I secretly sighed that I also drew rotten cartoons too much.

Rotten?

Shili didn't know what Chang Le was thinking, but when she saw that the corners of her mouth suddenly sparkled with an evil smile, she felt a chill on her body. I always feel that Chang Le wants to do something amazing.

Chang Le crawled out of bed with a grunt, as if he was reborn, and he was not afraid of the cold. He put on a thick cloak and ran out in the dark of the night, and he didn't let Shili follow.

In the middle of the night, Chang Le came back with the frost, exhaling white air, his cheeks flushed, and he was still so frozen. Ten miles was anxious, and when he saw this, he immediately found a thick dress for her to drape, carried her into the house, and helped her to the brazier.

"Madame, where have you been?"

Chang Le huddled up, looked at the brazier and thought about his own business, not only ignoring Shili but also smiling maliciously, as if he had thought of something strange.

When she came to her senses, she went to sleep without saying anything.

The next night, Chang Le went out again at night, and then came back with a red face and a cold body. After repeating this for a few days, Chang Le suddenly asked Shili to prepare a pen and paper and charcoal, and then drove her out, telling her not to enter without listening to the call.

Two days later, the unkempt Chang Le suddenly opened the door. The cold wind outside the door blew in, blowing her clothes and hair indiscriminately, and her domineering appearance made Shili get up quickly.

Only for a moment, I saw Chang Le retract back into the room and close the door halfway.

"It's really not suitable for being handsome on such a cold day. Ten miles, you come in and get it. ”

This time it's not a single drawing, it's a thin booklet, about five or six pages.

Chang Le's eyes are blue, his clothes are untidy, he presses the book tightly, and he laughs treacherously and mysteriously, like a female ghost who wants to kill people.

"You sell it again, this time to some small alleys. Remember, you must never open it! Let the shopkeeper take a look at it himself! ”

Shili was curious, but obediently took out a handkerchief and wrapped it seriously and put it in his arms.

At the east end of the city, there is a clean water alley, an alley of calligraphy and painting, and even the façade is dressed up in the same way, except for the name on the door.

Here, the buyers are basically ordinary people, and the sellers are also selling some miscellaneous books and paintings, and there are almost no exquisite works.

Ten miles into the alley, walking briskly on the fine brick and stone road, the drainage channels on both sides of the water gurgling, under the feet is melted snow mixed with dusty dirty water. It wasn't until I got to the depths of the alley that I stopped in front of a shop called "Baguizhai".

Eight return to fasting, on the recovery of her landscape map.

Shili took a deep breath, raised his foot over the threshold, and glanced around. The shop is not big, there is no one at this time, it is dark today, and the store is also dim. There are bookshelves on the left and right, and paintings on the walls. Baguizhai is not as exquisite and luxurious as the painting workshop she has been to, but it is neater and more elegant than the small calligraphy and painting grocery store she went to.

As soon as he passed through the corridor to the counter, the owner of the Eight Returns came out of the back room. is still wearing an ink-colored green shirt, with a plum blossom hairpin in his hair, and a folding fan in his hand. When she came before, she overheard that the name of the fasting master was Liu Chengyan.

Shili likes this lord very much, and thinks that he is very talkative, and he is always smiling, which makes people feel like a spring breeze. In particular, his hand holding the fan looks good.

When Liu Chengyan saw her, he couldn't help frowning: "The girl sent the painting again?" ”

"Yes, this time I brought a good painting, why don't you take a look at it?"

Shili said and took out a handkerchief from his arms, opened it carefully, and put it on the counter. Inside is a blue-skinned booklet, not a single painting as before.
