Chapter 5 Moon Spring Diagram
Boss He came to visit the stranger for something, and I happened to be short of money, so I wanted to take the opportunity to slaughter him. So he threw out the bait and waited for the fish to take the bait. Unexpectedly, Boss He couldn't bear it all of a sudden, and immediately bit the fish hook and said to me: "Brother Sven, I have a lot of money." You open your mouth, and it doesn't matter how much you want. ”
When I heard He Fatzi mention money, I smiled hypocritically and waved my hand and said, "Boss He, you and I have known each other, how can I be embarrassed to accept your money, this is not good." I knew that the more I refused, the more anxious Boss He became, so I saw him immediately take out his checkbook and say to me: "Brother Sven, don't be polite, I'm ready, you can open your mouth as much as you want, don't be polite to me." I know that you have to pay a deposit first, and you will receive this check for 500,000 yuan first. After saying that, he hurriedly wrote the check, stood up and stuffed it into my hand, for fear that I would refuse.
I first politely excused myself, and then put the check in my jacket pocket, thinking: This fish has bitten the hook, of course it is good to drop a big fish, who knows whether this haunted incident is true or false, we have to negotiate the conditions first, so I asked tentatively: "As far as I know, Boss He has a good relationship with Fifth Master Cha, why didn't he ask him to help?" ”
He Fatzi smiled awkwardly and said, "Fifth Master Zha said that he is not good at anything other than the inverted fight, and I came to Yishiju to find someone to help." ”
I heard this and secretly scolded this cunning old ghost in my heart, I have already been to the fifth master of the first place, after being rejected, there is no way out before I was forced to run to me, it seems that I am now the last life-saving straw in his hand, now I have a chance to knock him a bamboo pole.
I first said "oh", which means a lot of things, including "You guy came to me when he was desperate, so don't blame me for hacking you." Then he still spoke in a calm tone, and said to him unhurriedly: "Boss He, do you know the rules of our foreign residence, that is, no matter whether you "find someone" or "entrust things", you will not accept cash after the matter is completed, but accept some antique calligraphy and painting gadgets depending on the situation, as a reward. This is also the old rule set by the stranger for thousands of years, and we can't break the rules when we come to me. If I break the rules, the ancestor of the alien residence will no longer bless me as a successor, do you know the seriousness of the matter? ”
He Fatzi naturally understood the meaning of my words, first wiped the sweat on his forehead, and glanced at me inadvertently with his small eyes, and then asked the young man behind him to open the box he brought, took out an old raincoat folded into a square and put it on the tabletop mountain, and then slowly opened the raincoat layer by layer with very careful and light feet, and finally revealed a yellowed and somewhat damaged calligraphy and painting wrapped in the innermost. Sitting on the Taishi's chair, I just glanced at it quickly, and my heart almost stopped beating without excitement.
I hurriedly walked to the front of Boss He, and my eyes quickly scanned the calligraphy and paintings in front of me, and the inscriptions on them were "Wu Jun Tang Yin and the signature made for Yuequan, the font name Tang Bohu, Tang Ziwei and Liuru Jushi and other seals." With great excitement, I carefully turned over the calligraphy and painting, and saw that the inscription on the back of the painting was Zhu Yunming, Wen Zhengming. I couldn't help but cry out with ecstasy in my heart: yes, it's my favorite great painter "Tang Bohu" of the "Moon Spring Picture", I have seen countless times the fakes and copies of calligraphy and paintings of this picture, and the one in front of me is absolutely genuine, the whole painting is full of strong antiquity, it is definitely a trace that has been handed down for thousands of years and cannot be copied and imitated.
Tang Yin, the word Bohu, the number six such as layman, the peach blossom master, Hangzhou people, the Ming Dynasty famous painter, poet. Tang Yin's personality is cynical and talented, and he is famous for his poetry and writing, and is known as the "Four Talents of Wuzhong" (that is, the "Four Talents of Jiangnan") together with Zhu Yunming, Wen Zhengming, and Xu Zhenqing; The name of the painting was changed, and Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming, and Qiu Ying were called the "Four Families of Wumen", also known as the "Four Families of the Ming Dynasty".
Tang Bohu has been smart and clever since he was a child, but he is not long-lived, his parents died in his early years, his sister died and his wife was mourned, and he was only able to get the "Xie Yuan" in the year of his establishment, but he was punished for being an official forever because of officialdom fraud. Later, because he noticed that King Ning was plotting rebellion, he pretended to be crazy and ran naked in the city, so he avoided a difficulty, and his life was difficult in his later years, and he said goodbye to the world forever in the year of the black-haired cane. His life was full of ups and downs, and his poems were mostly works of nostalgia, in order to express his wild and arrogant state of mind, as well as his feelings of the hot and cold world, I really like the heroic feelings revealed in his sad poems. His painting style and composition are concise and clear, and the brushes are mostly delicate and powerful, delicate but not weak, powerful and rhyme, with the beauty of rigidity and softness, and he is also my favorite and admired outstanding painter. Looking at the moon spring picture of Tang Yin's authentic works in front of me, my saliva was about to flow down.
When Boss He saw my eyes shining, he said to me at a good time: "Brother Sven, with your eyes, you can definitely see that this painting is genuine." In the special period, the owner of the collection risked his life to wrap it in a raincoat and build it into the wall, and it survived. I know that the little brother Sven is a cultural person, and he likes these celebrity calligraphy and paintings very much, so he specially took two porcelain vases and exchanged them with others. You see, like it or not? ”
The word "like" almost blurted out, but I immediately thought that the sky would not worship the truth that pies would fall, and I inevitably hesitated in my heart. He Fatzi, a fox as cunning as an iron rooster, was willing to make such a big deal all of a sudden, which shows that the haunting of his garden villa is by no means simple. So I steadied my excitement, sat back in the chair with a calm expression, squinted at He Fatzi, and said in an unkind tone: "Boss He, we understand that people don't say dark words, you are so generous, is it because your haunted things are not simple?" I don't want an octogenarian to push a cart up the wall – it's a waste of effort if I don't have the ability, and if my life is in danger, then I won't lose more than I gain. ”
Boss He, a Hong Kong guy, probably didn't understand what I said, but I saw the secretary behind him whispering to him, and He Fatty's little eyes couldn't stop rolling, he knew that I was a smart person, and I couldn't fool if I wanted to. Even if he tricked me into going to Hong Kong, and when I slapped my ass and left, he couldn't stop him if he wanted to, wouldn't it be a loss to his wife and a soldier, and he would definitely not do such a stupid thing.
He Fatzi first carefully wrapped the moon spring map from the new, and then said to me with a smile: "Brother Sven, I can't hide it, the problem of the haunting of the garden villa is not strict." It's just that I want to solve the problem as much as possible, this haunted villa where my family lives, just in my newly developed high-end garden villa park, because of the rumors of haunting, the houses in my park can't be sold, and there are a lot of people who come to collect debts every day, which really forces me to have no choice, of course, I don't hesitate to spend a lot of money to solve this matter as soon as possible. ”
I scolded in my heart, this old fox is really shrewd, although a piece of Tang Yin's calligraphy and painting is precious, how can it be compared with a garden villa area in Hong Kong, it is just a drop in the bucket. And he said that the haunted thing is not strict, and it is certainly not true. There is no shortage of talented people in Hong Kong, if it is an ordinary haunted incident, how can no one solve it? Now that I have 500,000 yuan in my pocket, I am not afraid that the business that comes to my mouth will run away, so I have to make the conditions as favorable to me as possible in advance.
I smiled and said to He Fatzi: "Boss He, Taoism has always been very popular in Hong Kong, and many masters are the descendants of Maoshan Taoism, why can't you solve the haunting problem that you don't have a strict reputation for?" ”
When He Fatzi heard me say the words "not strict", he deliberately accentuated his tone, so he said to me with a greasy smile: "It's really a small problem, it's just that those so-called masters are all in vain, and they can't be compared with you real Taoist heirs." You can rest assured that you can go on a trip with me, and easily collect the little ghosts, this Moon Spring Diagram is yours Brother Sven. ”
I don't eat this set of fat man's sweet words, usually I and the fat man fool others every day, who can fool the two of us.
As soon as I thought of the fat man, I couldn't stop complaining in my heart, why did the dead fat man stay in the antique shop in front of him at this time and not come back, what was there to talk about with the dumb man who couldn't see his face. It's better for him to be lazy and idle, leaving me alone here to sing a one-man show with red and white faces, I can't count on him at this critical moment, he is too unreliable, and he has to educate him well for a while.
I saw Boss He's understatement, so I stared at him and kept blinking and said, "Boss He, I'm not my master, I'm not an old man, and I don't have his big ability, I know very well how many catties and taels I have." If I go to Hong Kong and fail to help you catch ghosts and demons, it doesn't matter if you run away in vain, it won't be good to delay your business. ”
What kind of character is He Fatzi, who has been rummaging and rolling in the treacherous and sinister shopping mall for many years, it is estimated that he has to calculate the price in advance to buy an apple, and then he heard that I had something to say, and he did not pretend to be confused, and said to me directly: "Brother Sven, you can rest assured, you will never let you run in vain, as long as you go to Hong Kong with me with peace of mind, whether it is successful or not, the benefits are naturally indispensable to you, but I am very confident in the ability of Brother Sven, and I will definitely be able to win and succeed." ”
I didn't expect Boss He, a cunning old fox, to jump into my mouth in the end. And I originally meant to let him say: even if the ghost collection is not successful, he will give me the moon spring map. As a result, he didn't say anything to death until the end, but I'm not afraid that after the failure to catch ghosts, he won't give me the moon spring map. If the ghost is not successful, I will also find a way to let him obediently spit out the picture, if it succeeds, I will hack him again at the critical moment, who let him be clever and not say it to death, don't blame me for stretching my legs at the next turn and waiting for him, falling on his heels, is a punishment for his own cleverness.
This is called one foot high, and the magic is one foot high.
But I can't help but be a little worried, first, I am afraid that the haunting of He Fatty's villa is not as simple as it seems on the surface, and it may be a trap to lure me into being deceived, or there may be a conspiracy in it; The second is that I am worried that if the haunted incident is true, but the situation is strict, I am afraid that I will become a sorghum pole carrying water - I can't afford it, and if I can't take office at that time, it will be a loss of face for a stranger.
