Chapter 216 Iris Gallery

Liang Beiyao opened his eyes and found himself in a familiar and unfamiliar room.

She rubbed her eyes vigorously and sat up from the bed. She's still wearing yesterday's clothes.

After looking around the room, she remembered that this was Wu Yuhong's home.

The things in the room are a bit messy, and the blue-gray tones look like a man's room at first glance.

Last night they went to a Sichuan restaurant to eat boiled fish, and after eating, they began to sit and chat, and Liang Beiyao ordered several bottles of beer because he was in a dull mood.

She rubbed her temples, which were still swollen.

After she got drunk last night...... I don't remember what happened again.

The clock on the wall shows that the current time is 8:40 a.m.

She is the only one here, what about Wu Yuhong?

Liang Beiyao got out of bed, opened the door and looked for Wu Yuhong in the room.

Eventually, she found him on the couch in the living room.

Wu Yuhong's sleeping posture was very poor, hanging on the sofa with swaying, and there was saliva at the corner of his mouth.

"Hey, get up." Liang Beiyao poked Wu Yuhong's shoulder with his index finger.

"Huh? What the? Wu Yuhong woke up from his dream suddenly.

"It's me." Liang Beiyao sat on the sofa, "How did we come back last night?" ”

"Huh?" Wu Yuhong touched his neck and yawned loudly, "You yourself said you were coming." You were drunk last night and I would have wanted to send you back to your house. As a result, you had to go back, saying that even if I sent you to your door, you would not enter the house. ”

"It was still raining outside, so I had no choice but to take you back to my house."

Liang Beiyao: "Oh. ”

Wu Yuhong got up from the sofa sleepily and went directly to the bathroom.

When he came out of the bathroom, he saw Liang Beiyao sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.

"That ......" Wu Yuhong was a little overwhelmed, "I'm off duty today, if you want to go home, I'll drive you back." ”

"I don't want to go home." Liang Beiyao buried his face in his knees, "A little impersonal place, whoever likes to go will go." ”

“…… Are you hungry? I'll go out and buy some breakfast. ”

"No need," Liang Beiyao stood up, "No need to go out to buy it, I'll go to the food stall outside with you to eat something." ”

Lu Jisheng drove Sheng and Xiao Yu to the Iris Gallery.

It's the weekend and there are a little more people in the gallery than usual.

Most of them are customers who come to pick out their favorite paintings and prepare to hang them at home.

Of course, there are also works by some well-known modern painters in the gallery, which are usually expensive and require a gallery membership card to buy.

Xiao Yu himself is also a little interested in painting, he held Lu Jisheng's hand with his left hand, held Sheng's hand with his right hand, and jumped into the gallery.

As soon as they entered, they were greeted by a staff member, dressed in the uniform of the gallery, and greeted them warmly: "Good morning, you three, what style of painting do you want?" ”

Lu Jisheng and Sheng glanced at each other, and Sheng asked, "What kind of people are here?" Can we take a stroll around first? ”

"Yes, please come with me."

Iris Gallery is the largest gallery in the city, and it is divided into a Chinese pavilion and a foreign pavilion.

The Chinese Pavilion is divided into modern paintings and ancient style paintings. There are even some exquisite one-to-one reproductions of ancient famous paintings.

They first went to the China Pavilion.

It just so happened that the owner of the gallery was personally wiping the frame inside, and he was very surprised when he saw Lu Jisheng walking in with Sheng and Xiao Yu:

"Isn't this Mr. Lu?" The manager hurriedly put down the wet cloth in his hand and greeted him, "Why are you free to come over today?" ”

After Lu Jisheng bought the gallery, he became the de facto owner of the gallery. The shopkeeper also needs to report to him on time.

The staff member hadn't reacted for a while, she looked at Lu Jisheng in surprise, not understanding why the shopkeeper was so enthusiastic about this customer.

Lu Jisheng: "Well, bring my wife and children over today to have a look." ”

"Oh, it's good, it's good." The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, and he said to the staff, "You go back first, I'll receive you." ”

“…… Good. The staff left with a blank look on their faces.

The owner then led them on a tour of the gallery and gave some explanations from time to time.

Sheng is more interested in modern paintings, and she usually likes to paint modern style.

Most of the customers who come here come to choose home decoration paintings, so there are many decorative paintings in the modern museum.

Xiao Yu's interest was very high, he picked out a few paintings that he liked very much, and pestered Lu Jisheng to buy them for him, saying that he wanted to hang them in his room.

Lu Jisheng: "Okay, I'll buy it for you." ”

"Yay!" Xiao Yu jumped up happily, and he pulled his hand, "Sister, you can also quickly pick a few and let Dad buy them for you." ”

The shopkeeper was slightly stunned when he heard Xiao Yu call him "sister", but he immediately returned to normal.

"Okay." Sheng picked up Xiao Yu, "Let's go, let's go over there and pick a few more." ”

Xiao Yu lay on Sheng's shoulder and said to Lu Jisheng, "Won't Dad come along?" ”

Lu Jisheng: "I'll talk to my uncle here for a while, you can go and pick it." ”

After Sheng and Xiao Yu walked away, the shopkeeper Huang Gongwang took Lu Jisheng to the rest area to sit.

Huang Gongwang started talking first: "Mr. Lu, the one just now is your fiancée, right?" ”

Lu Jisheng: "Hmm. ”

Huang Gongwang: "When are you going to get married?" I'd like to give you some gifts. ”

Lu Jisheng: "It's not decided yet, I've been a little busy lately." ”

Huang Gongwang had an expression that I understood: "Oh, don't worry, don't worry." ”

"Excuse me, this is tea for you." A uniformed staff member came up with two cups of tea.

Even the teacups have delicate patterns and the logo of the Iris Gallery.

Lu Jisheng took a sip of tea and said, "My wife also studied painting in college. ”

The store manager, Huang Gongwang, understood in seconds: "That's great, you can ask your wife to draw a few more pictures, and we will be responsible for helping her sell them." ”

"Hmm. I want her to try to come here and run it herself. ”

This sentence made Huang Gongwang's face change, he had been a store manager here for many years, and he didn't want to let go of the management rights at all.

But Lu Jisheng is the actual owner of this shop now, so Huang Gongwang can only say in a roundabout way: "Hehe, if Madam wants to come, then I am naturally welcome." It's just that she doesn't have much experience now, and I believe that Mr. Lu, you don't need her to work at all, so we can slow down this matter for a while. ”

"We're back!" Sheng walked over with Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu still had a bunch of receipts issued by the staff in his hand.

Huang Gongwang immediately stood up: "I'm back." Yo, you have chosen a lot, do you want to take the painting away today or we will deliver it to your door? ”

"Hmm......" Sheng looked at Lu Jisheng and said hesitantly, "Do you want to deliver it to the door another day?" Some of the paintings are still quite large, and you may not fit in the car. ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Huang Gongwang agreed with a smile.

Lu Jisheng: "Well, I can do it." ”

Coming out of the gallery, the three of them drove to a nearby restaurant for lunch.

While waiting for the food to be served, Sheng couldn't help but ask Lu Jisheng: "Jisheng, what did you say to the gallery owner?" ”

Lu Jisheng replied truthfully: "He agrees that he can help you sell your paintings, but if you want to take over the management of the gallery, I'm afraid it won't be so easy." ”

"Before I bought that gallery, the owner, Huang Gongwang, had been in business for more than a decade."

He frowned worriedly: "Actually, I've thought about it myself... If I were to rely on your connections and take over such a large gallery, I wouldn't be confident that I would be able to do it well. ”

Xiao Yu sat next to Lu Jisheng and played with chopsticks, quietly listening to the two adults talking.

Lu Jisheng raised his eyebrows: "Do you think you can enter the gallery because of me, so there is psychological pressure?" ”

Sheng pursed his lips and whispered, "Mmmm......"

"It would be a shame if you missed the opportunity to make a big impact just because of the psychological burden." Lu Jisheng said with a glance, "Since you have this advantage now, you must take advantage of it." ”

"But...... I don't know how to run it at all......"

Lu Jisheng: "Then go and learn." ”

Sheng gradually clenched her hands, she knew that if she wanted to improve, she couldn't blindly rely on Lu Jisheng.

"Good! I... I'm going to learn how to run a business! "Sheng has a scrappy look.

"In that case, let's go to class." Lu Jisheng said, "I'll help you find a professor who specializes in this field, and go to her every week according to the class schedule she gives you to attend classes on time." Then I draw some pictures at home and put them in the gallery in my spare time. ”
