Volume 1 Looking Northwest and Shooting the Wolf Chapter 25 The Colorless Embryo Part I
On the way back, Chai Tiannuo slipped all the way back to the small courtyard in the corner, and the streets and alleys were full of voices abusing and lacking morality, and there was a woman crying there.
The two of them were walking on a major matter, and the roof leaked with a bang, which scared the man and immediately shrunk the sun, and Lang Zhong treated him for a long time, and finally led the snake out of the hole.
But it's not a year and a half to be able to raise it.
As soon as he entered the small courtyard, Chai Tiannuo heard Chai Man'er's snoring, and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, this girl is simply heartless!
But after listening carefully, the snoring was mixed with a faint cry, Chai Tiannuo quietly entered the house and found that Chai Man'er was not asleep, but covered with a quilt and pretending to snore.
Chai Tiannuo's heart ached slightly for a while, how could this girl be so sensible.
"Don't cry, I'm back."
Gently rubbing the little girl's hair, Chai Tiannuo said softly.
"Young master, woo woo!"
Chai Man'er plunged into Chai Tiannuo's arms, hugged his neck and cried, persuaded for a long time but did not get better, and when it was dawn, he curled up in his arms in a daze and fell asleep.
The master and servant slept soundly this time, and when they opened their eyes, the sun was high and it was nearly noon.
After eating a steamed cake for 20 wen and drinking a bowl of light mutton soup for 50 wen, Chai Tiannuo called a meat pain, this is not rice, but a clanging big son.
Your own calligraphy and painting shop must be opened as soon as possible!
"Young master, didn't you say that you sold words before, why did you become a calligraphy and painting again?"
Chai Man'er asked curiously while packing up the things in the front room, Chai Tiannuo took a wooden ruler and gestured on the wooden board found in the courtyard, and said with a smile:
"Calligraphy and painting are not separated, your young master not only writes well, but also paints quite expressively, and when our shop is finished, I will show you a good hand!"
Yesterday's sanitation has been almost cleaned, and today there is a purpose, to open this calligraphy and painting shop, only the flowing water has no source, that is certain death.
Chai Tiannuo originally happily looked for a carpenter's shop, wanting to make a plaque and a pair of wood, but when he heard that the labor fee was ten taels of silver, he turned around and left, are people in the capital crazy? !
Three pieces of rotten wood cost ten taels, is silver not silver, used as a discus?
Back to the yard, I found a board in the garbage I cleaned up yesterday, it was just enough for half a day, Chai Tiannuo almost jumped up, this is ten taels of silver!
Draw a line, with the cooperation of the little girl, a pair of longboards and a plaque were sawed out crookedly, and the master and servant looked at the results of the battle for a long time and were speechless.
After a while, Chai Man'er opened his mouth like a toothache:
"Young master, what do you think, how is this board doing?"
β...... It's me who is talking about the big hands. β
Chai Tiannuo scratched his belly and grinned and said, he is not a shaft, what should he be, and he has the courage to criticize himself.
"Isn't there a shame in hanging out?"
"This, shame is also a means to attract customers."
Chai Tiannuo scratched his belly again, still talking with his teeth in his mouth.
Since it has been made, and I am reluctant to give up the ten taels of silver, this board and plaque are naturally going to be hung, but before hanging, this word still has to be written.
Man'er grinds ink, Chai Tiannuo took out a sheep's hair and covered it with ink, thought about it for a while, and decisively put pen to paper on the opposite board:
"Thousands of troops with pen power, ten thousand horsemen with etymology!"
"Young master, we're a little too much, aren't we?"
Chai Man'er grinned, Chai Tiannuo picked up a shengxuan and wiped her mouth, this girl didn't know what was wrong, she liked to steal ink.
"It's okay, when you do business, you have to add some skills to yourself, otherwise how can others come to the door?"
"Oh, what's the name of this shop?"
The little girl asked curiously, Chai Tiannuo thought about his current poor and declining appearance, and said with a serious face:
"All the money is gathered in my hands."
β...... Is this the name of the calligraphy and painting shop? β
"Then it's called Guangshengfa, all the way!"
"Young master, are you joking?"
Looking at the big round eyes of the barbarian, Chai Tiannuo was deflated:
"You asked, I feel like I'm also joking, I'm crazy about money these days, it's really a bit of a magic barrier, otherwise you think about it, in my mind, there is nothing but white silver."
Chai Man'er thought for a long time with his fingers against his chin, and his eyes suddenly lit up:
"How about Mo Xiangju, this ink is old and fragrant, you can smash it in your mouth for a long time!"
β...... When you earn money, you have to buy some anti-insect medicine, so you like to eat ink, eighty percent of you have worms in your stomach. β
Shaking his head, Chai Tiannuo seriously wrote three big characters on the plaque, Moxiangju.
After a while of busy hanging the plaque on the board, Chai Tiannuo smiled after looking up and down a few times.
The original crooked plank, with the words, has changed greatly, revealing a kind of quaint wild fun, in the final analysis, or their own words are good.
"Next, you have to prepare some samples, you can't see the real thing, and the customer can't know what a certain person is capable of."
Chai Tiannuo said with satisfaction, Chai Man'er nodded again and again, and by the way, he secretly dipped some ink with his tail finger and stuffed it into his mouth, this taste is really fragrant!
"The spring breeze caresses the green of thousands of mountains, and Nanyan returns to ten thousand households in spring."
"Barbarian, how is this pair?"
"Uh-huh, good!"
"The mountain spring on Jingquan Mountain is quiet, and the pond water in the clear water pond is clear."
"Barbarian, what about this pair?"
"Hiccup, awesome!"
The voice was a little wrong, Chai Tiannuo looked up, and was speechless, the little girl smeared half of her face with ink, and kept hiccups, this is eating ink!
Reprimanded, Chai Tiannuo painted two more landscapes with deep artistic conception, and after drying, he went out to find a framing shop to frame, which is a thing that supports the faΓ§ade, and it must not be saved.
The shopkeeper of the framed shop unfolded the calligraphy and painting, his eyes immediately lit up, and his mouth praised repeatedly, he had not seen such a seductive work for a long time.
Chai Tiannuo's eyes rolled and said with a smile:
"The shopkeeper, leave a calligraphy and painting with you, and the framing fee will be waived for me, right?"
He can save as much as he can, and his family has so much, and if he doesn't get into the account, he can only drink the northwest wind in a few days.
"Mr. Chai, these are all your masterpieces?"
Ma Wenxuan asked in surprise, the two had exchanged names before, and it was much easier to talk.
As an old man who has been rolling in the calligraphy and painting circle for decades, Ma Wenxuan's eyesight is not comparable to ordinary people, Chai Tiannuo's calligraphy and painting really make him feel like picking up shells in the sea.
"I can't call it a masterpiece, it's all a game, I opened a calligraphy and painting shop in the east courtyard, called Moxiangju, the horse shopkeeper can find me if you have a demand, and there will be a lot of discounts!"
Chai Tiannuo took the opportunity to pull customers, Ma Wenxuan couldn't help grinning when he looked at him, he couldn't believe that such meaningful words and paintings came from this person's hands.
After thinking about it, Ma Wenxuan lightly clicked on a picture of a landscape painting, and said with a chuckle:
"I chose this painting, and the other works were framed with the best materials, and the framing fee was free."
"The shopkeeper is benevolent!"
Chai Tiannuo thanked him, his happy mouth couldn't close, and Ma Wenxuan waved his hand:
"But I have a small request, I hope Mr. Chai can add verses to this painting, I don't know if it's okay?"
