Ye Baozhu listened to Liu Ye's words, and couldn't help but light up in her eyes, she has always been lazy and lazy, this will listen to Liu Ye's method of waiting for the rabbit to pick up the rabbit, and immediately thought that she would do the same, such a good thing as picking up rabbits for nothing, but you can't let Liu Ye get it all alone.

So, Ye Baozhu said to Liu Ye: "I know, isn't it just waiting for the rabbit?" What is not understood. Don't look down on people just because you know a few words. ”

Liu Ye couldn't help but smile when he saw that Ye Baozhu seemed to really believe it.

Then, Liu Ye went back to Ye Yixing's house and put the history book back in its place.

This time, when Liu Ye came over to eat at noon, Sun didn't say a word.

Because of the rabbits that Liu Ye gave Ye Duoduo, Liu Ye's meal money is more than enough.

Sun felt that his family had earned it, and he was a little complacent.

After lunch, Liu Ye took a few more history books and went to the mountains.

Ye Baozhu saw that Liu Ye was gone, and not long after, he also came out of Ye's house and walked to the mountain.

At the same time, Ye Yixing, who entered Longquan County, was also walking on the road.

He first went to the county government to hand over the marriage card with Liu Ye, and since then he and Liu Ye have been a legal husband and wife in Qingguo.

Qingguo's marriage regulations are also very strict, Qinglu requires that it must be monogamous, and the equal wife system of the previous dynasty was abolished.

Concubines can marry more, but there is no marriage certificate, and there is no need to go to the government for the record, and there is no qualification to divide the family property.

After Ye Yixing handed over the wedding card in the county office, he went back to the county school, took a small burden, and then went to Shuiyunxuan, the largest calligraphy and painting shop in Longquan County.

Shui Yunxuan specializes in all kinds of calligraphy and painting, including famous paintings by famous artists and excellent works of unfamous calligraphy and painting authors, which can be said to be eclectic.

Ye Yixing came into the store, and Shui Yunxuan's buddy saw that Ye Yixing was a scholar, so he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Guest officer, do you want to buy calligraphy and paintings?" My calligraphy and painting in Longquan County is second to none, what style you want to choose, I can help you introduce. ”

Ye Yixing listened to this guy's words, and said, "Where are you shopkeepers?" I'm here to sell calligraphy and paintings. ”

That guy listened to Ye Yixing's words and couldn't help but look at him several times.

Although Ye Yixing is young, he has an outstanding demeanor, this guy has been rolling in the calligraphy and painting circle for a long time, and he still has some eyesight.

There are often some children of the family, because the family is in the middle of the road, dressed plainly, and comes to the calligraphy and painting shop to sell ancestral calligraphy and paintings, this looks like Ye Yixing is a bit like that.

So, the guy said to Ye Yixing: "Wait a minute, guest officer, I'll go to our money shopkeeper." ”

"There is labor." Ye Yixing said.

Soon, the guy brought in the money shopkeeper.

When the money shopkeeper saw Ye Yixing, he also had an idea with that guy, so he said to Ye Yixing kindly: "I heard that the guest officer has calligraphy and paintings to sell, can you show me?" ”

Ye Yixing said: "Okay. ”

Then Ye Yixing took out the calligraphy and painting of the small burden and handed it to the money shopkeeper.

The money shopkeeper took the calligraphy and painting and looked at it, and couldn't help but gasp.

This painting is a freehand landscape, painted with two lines of cursive characters "spring", which is obviously the title of this painting. There is no inscription on the painting.

However, according to the money shopkeeper's many years of experience, this painting is very similar to the work of the old man who bouldered stone, a master of landscape painting in the previous dynasty.

The old man of bouldering is casual all his life, and he is fond of the landscape, and sometimes he comes to paint after the painting, and he does not even mention the payment, and he goes away with all his heart, which is very the style of Wei and Jin celebrities. Therefore, the landscape painting of the old man of bouldering is also highly regarded among the scholars of Qingguo, and it is said that a few days ago in Kyoto, it is a landscape painting of the decline of the old man of bouldering, the size is not as large as the current painting, and it was sold for 50,000 taels of silver.

So, at this time, the money shopkeeper hurriedly asked with excitement: "May I ask the guest officer, this is the work of the old man who bouldering?" ”

Ye Yixing listened to the words of the shopkeeper Qian, smiled faintly, and said: "I don't know if it's the work of the old man bouldering." This is a friend of mine, who has been short of money lately and needs money to turnover, and it is inconvenient for him to come forward, so he entrusted me to sell it for him. ”

Ye Yixing's words confirmed the conjecture of the money shopkeeper, and it was indeed a child of a family who came to sell the collection of calligraphy and paintings.

As for whether the person who sold it was Ye Yixing or someone else, the money shopkeeper didn't care.

In their business, he comes into contact with all kinds of people every year, and he is there to make money, and he can't control the affairs of other people's families.

So, the money shopkeeper carefully looked at the painting again, and after confirming that it was the authentic work of the old man bouldering, he continued to ask Ye Yixing: "I don't know how much does your friend want to sell this painting?" ”

"My friend said that a few days ago, there was a calligraphy and painting similar to a bouldering old man in Kyoto that was sold for 50,000 taels of silver, but because he was not sure if this was painted by the bouldering old man, but it was indeed treasured at home, so he asked the shopkeeper to make a price and let me make the decision for him."

The shopkeeper pondered for a while, and then said tentatively: "It is indeed the style of the old man who boulders, but no one can say whether it is genuine." Since that friend of yours really wants to sell it, I took it for 1,000 taels of silver, what do you think? ”

"Isn't a thousand taels too little? Even if it wasn't painted by the old man bouldering, this painting is a masterpiece. I think it's at least five thousand taels of silver, so that I can confess to my friends. Ye Yixing replied.

"Then three thousand taels of silver, I gave it no less. After all, Longquan is not Kyoto, and even if it is a good calligraphy and painting, the buyer does not have the grandeur of Kyoto. The money shopkeeper hurriedly said with a hot iron.

"This," Ye Yixing deliberately looked embarrassed.

"That's three thousand five hundred taels, no more. I've got the highest price I can give. The money shopkeeper hurriedly said.

Ye Yixing deliberately made up his mind and said to the money shopkeeper: "Okay then." My friend was really short of money and anxious to sell. Since the money shopkeeper is sincere and gives the highest price, it will be 3,500 taels, and I will make the decision for him. ”

"Good. Then we're done. The money shopkeeper said.

Then, as if he was afraid that Ye Yixing would regret it, the shopkeeper hurriedly put away the scroll.

Then he said to his fellow man, "Go quickly to the account office and pay three thousand five hundred taels of silver to this guest officer." ”

The guy left in response, and soon took the silver ticket from the account room and handed it to Ye Yixing.

"Guest, you order." The guy said to Ye Yixing.

"No need to order, Shui Yunxuan's font size, I can still trust it." Ye Yixing said.

Then, Ye Yixing said goodbye and left Shui Yunxuan.

As soon as Ye Yixing went out, the money shopkeeper immediately became excited.

He said to his man: "The newly appointed county commander is from the Cui family, which is a first-class family in Qingguo. Our owner has always wanted to make friends with Cui County, he has long heard that the newly appointed Cui Jinxing Cui County Commander loves the calligraphy and painting of the old man who boulders, which is famous, let us find a painting of the old man with bouldering. If this painting can be dedicated to Cui County, the owner will be happier than earning 50,000 taels of silver. There will be a great reward for us. ”
