Chapter 149: A big loss
"Okay, yes, dad won't ask. As long as you are good, let him do whatever he wants. Ye Yuan said good-naturedly, as long as the family is harmonious, it is better than anything else.
"You sit and read a book first, how tired it is to stand and read, Dad will have to wait for a while."
"Okay."
Yunxi is still very willing to read books, Ye Yuan did not participate in the imperial examination, so there are not many boring books in his study, such as the subset of classics and history, and the examination guide, most of them are travelogues and the like.
Yunxi found a travelogue and looked at it with relish. The ancients were very fond of study tours, so there were many people who wrote travelogues, and they were also very interesting. All the landscapes, customs, local specialties, eating habits, etc. seen during the trip are recorded in detail. It can be said to be very useful non-fiction literature.
However, travelogues are not history, and in order to attract readers, the writers will also record a lot of hearsay, or bizarre stories made up by themselves, etc., just like a script, as a selling point, so they cannot be taken seriously.
When Yunxi first started, she thought about whether to earn her first pot of gold by writing a script, and there were still a lot of stories she had read. But after thinking about it, forget it, and don't plagiarize before the mountain is exhausted. It is better to earn money by labor, and to have peace of mind.
"Come and see, is this okay?"
After reading more than half of Yunxi's words, Ye Yuan finally finished drawing.
It's really good at first glance. Simple but not simple, carved on the basin must look good. However, it is not enough to have pictures, but also to have words, which are more elegant.
"Dad, write a few more words!"
"Write Meilan Bamboo Chrysanthemum?" Ye Yuan asked.
"It's simple, this should be able to write more points." Yunxi said, "Why don't you write down their characteristics?" ”
"It's okay," Ye Yuan nodded, "Then write 'noble and proud' corresponds to plum blossoms, 'elegant and ethereal' corresponds to orchids, 'humility and knots' correspond to bamboo, and chrysanthemums correspond to 'cold and glamorous'." How is it?
"That's good." Yunxi has no opinion at all, the combination of painting and writing complements each other!
"That's it." Ye Yuan put down the brush, "It's done, my neck hurts." ”
"I'll give my dad a beat, I'm pretty good." Yunxi hurriedly turned the bookcase and gave Ye Yuan a shoulder beat, not to mention that Ye Yuan was so good to her, but he didn't treat her well, as the big boss of the Ye family, Yunxi couldn't be sloppy.
Yunxi was pounding the words and paintings on the case, and he always felt that something was missing. After pondering for a while, I suddenly remembered that there was a lack of trademarks.
"Well, Dad, I suddenly had an idea, should we add a mark to the flower pot," Yunxi said, "it can mean that this flower is planted by us." ”
"It seems that Yunxi is very confident!" Ye Yuan smiled, "You don't have a pot of flowers that meet the conditions for sale yet." ”
Ye Yuan didn't ask Yunxi what he was doing, and then he seemed to be nothing more than like those literati and famous craftsmen, painting a painting and making an object, and they had to mark the name of the font, so that people could know who did it.
"It's not important," Yunxi shook his hand absently, "It's going to be autumn when it's coming, so you have to take precautions." ”
"Is that to put your number on it? Or is it a table word? It seems that you have neither a table nor a number, right? Ye Yuan asked, "Why don't I call you two now?" ”
Table? Number? Yunxi didn't understand a little, there was no need for this on the flower pot, right? Although planting flowers is an elegant thing, she is not only to keep it for her own appreciation, but also to do business, marking her own table or number, isn't it a little too much?
Yunxi shook his head and said: "No, Dad, I'm not a famous Confucian hermit, what's the name, it's not too late to talk about this when the flowers I raise go to all parts of the country in the future, and now there is no need for that." ”
"You're really not modest, Yunxi, and go all over the country?" Ye Yuan listened to it and twitched, this girl really doesn't know how to write the word modesty, and she is still going to the whole country, and it would be good to be able to go to all parts of Youzhou.
"Haha, imagine it." Yunxi smiled and said, "I mean, it's like Duobao Pavilion and Linlang Study, so that people can know who made it when they hear it, such an imprint, words or pictures, or a combination of words and pictures." ”
"Anyway, it's a special mark, which means that this is the potted flower that my Ye family uses."
Ye Yuan thought seriously for a while before he said, "Yunxi, isn't it a bit troublesome to get this, is it really necessary?" ”
"Is that a hassle?" Yunxi really doesn't know if it's troublesome or not, anyway, no matter what she bought in her previous life, unless it was a stall or a small shop on the side of the road, it generally had its own mark. The concept of trademark is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and she really feels that she is at a loss if she sells flowers without being a mark.
Ye Yuan frowned and said: "I don't know much about this, but the patterns used to make the flower pots seem to have been painted by themselves!" ”
"It shouldn't be troublesome, we can make a small seal, engrave our trademark on the small seal, and then when they fire to a certain program, don't you just use this small seal to cover it, it should be very simple, right?" Yunxi thinks this idea is feasible, although she doesn't know anything about firing ceramics, but since it is fired in mud, it should be soft before it is fired, and it is not a trivial matter to stamp it.
"It should work." Ye Yuan nodded, "But what kind of markers are you going to use?" ”
"I don't know, I didn't think about it!" Yunxi replied honestly, she just thought of this idea, where did she have time to think about what to use?
"The Ye family's flower garden? Yip Kee Flower Garden? ”
"Too ordinary!"
"The garden is full of flowers, and the garden is full of fragrance?"
"No ideas!"
"That dark incense, this is poetic enough, right?" Ye Yuan said, "Dad thinks this will be done." ”
Yunxi shook his head, "It feels a bit like a shop that sells fat powder, it's not good or bad!" ”
"Then Baihui Garden, Qinxiang Garden, Manting You, Orchid Garden, Fanjin Garden, Drunken Butterfly Garden?" Ye Yuan is also a master of naming, and he said several in one breath.
"Let's take the Hundred Garden! Simple, straightforward, and unambiguous. Yunxi said, "But Dad, do you want to discuss it with the eldest sister?" ”
"Then set the Hundred Flower Garden." Ye Yuan said, "There's no need to discuss, anyway, in the future, even planting flowers will have to worry about Yunxi, and you won't be able to use them." ”
Yunxi nodded, that's right, don't say it in the future, it's now, just Yuanyuan will help her, Yunjin and they are all responsible for looking at the flowers, so she has the most right to be famous.
"Then let's use this, and turn around and engrave a chapter for my father, so that it looks good." Ye Yuan was full of confidence, "When it's done, I'll go and order the flower pot." But not in the next few days, you have to prepare for your brother's full moon feast. ”
"Understood, the Full Moon Feast takes precedence." Yunxi said, "Are there a lot of people coming that day?" ”
Ye Yuan smiled and nodded, "It shouldn't be less, Yunkai is a few years old, I have only given gifts in the past few years, and now I finally have the opportunity to return to my roots." ”
Oh, it turns out that the ancients also had the trouble of giving gifts, saying that she didn't eat less high-priced meals after she went to work, and I thought that I could return to blood one day, but I didn't want to cross over to this place once, what a big loss.
