Chapter 330: The Value of Talent, the Value of Painting
"Moonstone, what I need is moonstone, not moonchip. ++++ They are different, two completely different things. Do you know how big the moon is on the 'Moon Dance', and that master only sketches a semicircle, you know? I don't want the powder of the moondust stone to color, as long as the powder of the moonstone, otherwise it will be a desecration of this 'moon dance', you know? β
"Money? Stop talking to me about money. β
"This is a masterpiece that can make people dance, this is a masterpiece that can make people fall into the painting...... Don't look at it through the eyes of a mortal. β
"Listen, if you want money, you can find a river steward or a sea steward or something, don't bother me. All I need is moonstone, no matter how valuable it is. And that Tears of Alberion, I said I wanted the Youquan Tearstone to be powdered, but you found the White Spring Stone, what the hell does this mean? It's 'I want a gold brick and you give me a copper stone', you know, are you all deaf? Don't give me another quote, I don't want to know how much the Youquan Tearstone is worth, just go find it for me. This painting is different, your millions of masterpieces will be able to wipe your ass in a few decades. It can be passed on for generations, you know, idiots! β
Admiralty Flower City, private jade building.
A group of magnates whispered about the 'battle for imperial robes' in the imperial capital, while another thin-looking old man was yelling loudly.
There were rare stones worth 10,000 gold in front of him, but he didn't care about them.
"I don't want ink stone, you bastards, I want the ink heart water emperor stone. It's used to dye the shadows in the water of Moon Dance, not just a black stone, damn idiots! Meng Gong. What the hell is going on? If you can't afford the money, then don't waste the old man's time. These two paintings leave them in their original state. Now get a bunch of garbage paint, do you want the old man to destroy them? β
Hear a roar. A group of powerful princes were slightly dissatisfied.
The duke, known as Duke Meng, stepped forward and said with an unchanged face: "Old Ji, don't be angry. It's just some paint, and it doesn't affect your old magic brushwork. You've always said that those things are a bit hard to get, why don't you make do with them and use these paints to complete the scroll? β
Ji Lao was stunned when he heard this.
Shake oneβs head.
sighed: "Meng Gong is so elegant and builds his own private jade building." It seems that nothing more than that. The old man is here by mistake this time, so please do it. The master of the pen is a strange man. He knows that he can dominate the whole painting with a few brushstrokes, and he is not the kind of painter you think. The old man only wants to say one sentence now: these two paintings have been painted, and they are only about to be colored, even if you invite the old man from Kuai Muxiang, you can't change half a point. β
"Elder Ji, the original painting is just a painting by a young teacher of the Tielan Painting Academy, you only need to modify the original painting ......" Meng Gong was slightly displeased when he heard this, and was about to persuade.
"This old man already knew. It's because you don't know how to paint and don't be reasonable. That master has the ability to 'turn decay into magic', and this Tear of Aberion is enough for him to click on it. If you have restored the portrait of Madame Alberion perfectly. The whole painting does not have this effect. It's like a little star in the dark night sky, and you want to make it full of stars. Well, I don't understand it to you. The old man went back, you can do whatever you like. β
After Ji Lao finished speaking, he ignored everyone's reactions. Walk briskly out of the hall.
"Ji Lao...... Ji Lao ......"
Everyone was stunned, and Meng Cheng wanted to catch up. At this time, a group of old men with swords suddenly broke in outside the door.
They don't say hello either.
Straight asked: "Excuse me." May I ask who is Ji Baifan? β
"Who are you?" The magnates of the private jade building were shocked, but the guards were afraid to move. They have been identified. Any one of these people in this group can kill them in seconds. To provoke them is to ask for trouble.
Meng Gong and the others were also stunned and speechless.
This group of old men. Any one of them is a great god who they can't invite into their homes.
Now they are all in the court?
"The old man is Ji Baifan, you are...... A master craftsman in the sword training field? Ji Lao said strangely.
"That's right, we're the ones in the fencing field. Hello Mr. Ji, we have a painting in our hands that is at the level of 'Viewing Paintings and Leaving the Soul', but someone has added a painting and made it messy. Mr. Ji, can you please fix it? The old man stepped forward and said.
When everyone heard that 'watching the painting left the soul', they didn't know why at all.
Ji Lao jumped up: "What did you say? You let others graffiti this kind of painting, is your sword a piece of iron, won't you kill him? Bring the old man over, right away! β
"Please!"
"By the way, if you want to repair this kind of masterpiece, I'm afraid you need a lot of Zhenxi materials, and it will ...... when the time comes."
"As long as there is zΓ i in this world, whatever will be found for you."
"Very well, you are people who understand." Elder Ji smiled with satisfaction and left with a group of old men with swords. The guards of the private jade building retreated and avoided it, not daring to stop this group of heroes who were in a hurry. Seeing the eyes of this group of sword elders, they knew that they couldn't be provoked, and it was definitely the consequence that you would slash your Yan zhΓ²ng with one sword.
Meng Gong and the other nobles blushed slightly.
They just thought that Ji Lao was wasting money and deliberately exaggerating the facts.
Unexpectedly.
In the blink of an eye, a group of old people with a status ten times higher did not hesitate to repair a painting.
Half an hour later.
"Gong Meng, Madame Alberion has something to ask for."
"Oh, don't you dare, Butler Lan, I don't know what Madame commands?" Duke Meng was also a duke, but he did not dare to pose to Madame Alberion.
"Madame is now a guest in the sword training ground in the city, and there is a Master Ji at the same table, who is very good at repairing works of art. Madame was asking for two paintings, 'Tears of Alberion' and 'Moon Dance', to be repaired by the Master Ji. Since thousands of masters and craftsmen in the sword training ground were all at the table, it was inconvenient for the lady to walk away. I couldn't come in person, and I ask Meng Gong to forgive me. Butler Lan said.
Meng Gong and the others were collectively speechless.
"Meng Gong, is there anything inconvenient?" Butler Blue asked strangely.
"I didn't ...... No. Someone came, took the painting, and handed it over to the blue butler to take away. Meng Gong shouted lightly. At this time, my heart was bitter. He knew very well that it was not Madame Alberion trying to humiliate him. It's a coincidence. Madame Alberion was invited by the swordsmith, and Ji Baifan was also invited over just now. See the level of Ji Lao. Madame must have felt that his craftsmanship was the best.
The powerful people are also smiling bitterly.
I knew it early.
No matter what the cost is to satisfy Master Ji, you can also achieve a good story.
Now, it can only turn into a joke.
"Meng Gong, I don't know what the swordsmiths invited Ji Lao to repair. If the value of that thing is very high, I'm afraid that our mistreatment of Master Ji will become a joke. Next to him, a marquis who was familiar with Duke Meng said.
Meng Gong shook his head gently.
Sighed and said, "This face...... We're lost. Something that can get the attention of so many swordsmiths is certainly not something simple. Even if Master Ji doesn't repair well, we will be responsible for the name of treating him lightly. Someone, use my name to send a gift to the sword training ground. It is said that the prince did not treat Master Ji well, and was willing to invite all the painting teachers and students in the city to feast in the Admiralty Tower for a month to show his guilt. β
"Yes, Gong Meng." The chief of the guard withdrew. I thought to myself, Meng Gong was 'bleeding' this time.
Just a thought, and now I have to slap myself in the face.
The next day.
Sun Gong came to the guest building early and waited in front of Dunant's apartment.
"Assistant Sun, do you have something?"
"Mr. Du: early. Yes, Meng Gong had no intention of snubbing a master last night. Today, I would like to ask all the artists for their guilt. Meng Gong has already chartered half of the place in the Admiralty Tower to feast all the painting teachers and students in the Admiralty Flower City, please have a full month. Dean Zhang asked me to ask, is Mr. Du interested in dining at Admiralty? Sun Gong explained.
"Is it free? Of course. Don't eat for nothing, don't eat. Dunant laughed.
Sun Gong also laughed and didn't dare to say anything.
But I thought to myself.
With your status as 'Fighting Grandmaster', you want to eat a free meal...... The powerful businessmen of the entire Admiralty Flower City lined up for a banquet. As long as you are willing to go. Let's not talk about others, just Luo Di's group of powerful sons want to lean over all day long. If you look at your faces. Free white food for a hundred years, they are happy. At this time, needless to say, even Xiao Jing, who has been the anchor in a few competitions, has become a sweet spot in the upper class.
Dunan and his entourage followed Tielan's teachers and students to eat and drink.
In the fencing field.
The other group is busy.
Madame Alberion stopped in front of the painting titled 'The Sword of Rock Cuttering'. His eyes were a little misty. Intuitively, she felt that the painter's brushwork was somewhat familiar. The tears of the 'Tears of Alberion' are the most visible, almost identical to the ink circle. The difference is that this ink circle is 'sharp', and the tear point is 'soft'.
"Tie Lao, this painting is very important to you, how important is it?" Alberion asked.
Tie Baixuan pondered when he heard this, not knowing how to respond.
At this time.
An old man in a snow-robed and white-bearded robe stepped forward and said softly, "Lady Alberion, have you heard of the storm of 'Wind Chopping Wood Carving'? β
Alberion chuckled: "Old man, anyone with long ears has heard of this. β
The old man in the snow robe also smiled: "Since you know, the old man doesn't need to say much." Its value is similar to that of a chopping wood carving...... No, it may be more valuable than a Chopping Puppet for its applicability. Because the wood carving carved by Mr. Nie with the Wind Chopping Sword is only suitable for a few people who know how to chop the water sword. And it is suitable for anyone who likes to practice five-wheel sword skills. β
Hearing this comment, Ji Baifan at work was also stunned.
He couldn't believe it.
This divine painting in his hand can be compared to the small wood carving carved by the sword of Master Nie Daoxing. Moreover, the old man seems to think that it is more practical.
"Tie Lao, this ...... Is it really as the old gentleman said? Ji Baifan said suspiciously.
"Of course." Tie Baixuan nodded seriously and explained: "This is Si Muhua, Si Lao, one of the apex masters in the chaotic universe who really knows how to cut the water sword. Si Lao is still Nie Lao's personal disciple, if this painting is not as good as the wind cutting wood carving, Si Lao would rather die than depreciate the work of the master. Ji Lao, you understand its preciousness, and it will trouble you as soon as you get it. β
"Oh...... Good ......"
Hearing the words 'Water Chopping Sword', Ji Baifan was completely shocked. There are less than 100 exquisite swordsmen in the Chaos Universe, and the person in front of him is one of them.
At this moment, Ji Lao also completely believed his words.
has no real value, this old man will definitely not despise the works of 'Master Nie Daoxing'.
"It's strange for Si Lao to say this, this drawing paper is the paper used for the entrance examination of students, right? Dean Zhang, I don't know where the master of painting this painting is, is it related to the master of Teacher Yizhu Mu? Aberion asked with a smile. (To be continued!)
