I didn't want to apply for a job, and when I saw this shop called "Cuinong" on Caomen Street, it was just a chance to come by.

Obviously, Guan Cuinong didn't expect that I had been in the store for so long to "find a job".

"Okay, Xiaoyu, I don't think you know this friend too well, how can you recommend it to me? What's going on between him and the black skin? ”

Guan Xiaoyu told me what happened on the side of the road, it turned out that after she gave up the position of "Zhengjiang", she did not leave, but went up to the second floor of the teahouse opposite, and watched me condescendingly against Heipi.

I won, and Blackskin became angry and stalked me to make trouble, and she kept watching.

Heipi was violently beaten by Monk Sun, she didn't come forward, and patiently followed until now.

"I think of a person and call your second sister." Guan Cuinong commanded with a smile.

Guan Xiaoyu was puzzled: "Looking for my second sister?" Did she recommend someone for you too? The second sister has a good temper, I must find you a man like an old sheep, if you don't use it, you can't use it......"

She called with a smile, and as soon as the other party spoke, I immediately understood what Guan Cuinong meant.

The person who answered the phone was the female owner of the shop that bought my golden inkstone.

At that time, I heard the old man who entered the door call the other party "Xiaoguan". Now, all the details are in place.

Guan Cuinong is the eldest sister, the boss Guan is the second sister, and Guan Xiaoyu is the third.

"Second sister, I'm in the eldest sister's shop. She said, you recommended someone to her and help her sit in the restaurant. Where are the people? ”

The other party said two words, and Guan Xiaoyu shouted: "What? That person - also called Ye Tian? ”

She turned her head and pointed her right index finger at me, her face full of astonishment.

I don't know what the other person said, but I understand it.

When I received the money from Jin Siyan, the other party saw the full name on my bank card, and naturally knew that my name was Ye Tian.

Guan Cuinong has been seeking talents, and the boss Guan only dealt with me once, so he remembered me and wanted to recommend me.

It's such a coincidence, I shot twice in Bianliang City, both of which were related to the three sisters of the Guan family.

Guan Xiaoyu hung up the phone, her expression was a little depressed, and she only said: "Second sister will come over immediately." ”

Guan Cuinong smiled: "Xiaoyu, your guests are coming, how can you do ordinary tea?" It's too sluggish. You go, go to my safe to get the tea, re-wash the pot three times, and make a pot of 'Han's Sparrow'. It just so happens that Mingzhu is also here, and the four of us drink this pot of tea, which is not a tyrannical thing. ”

Guan Xiaoyu stood up with her head down, held the teapot, and went to the depths of the store.

"Mr. Ye, it's really presumptuous, I didn't know before, you are a young talent recommended by the second and third sisters, you are sluggish, you are sluggish. My shop, which has been open on Caomen Street for 30 years, was handed down by my father. Earlier, during the Central Plains War, my seventh, ninth, and fifteenth grandfathers opened stores on Caomen Street. It's a shame that although our three sisters inherit the family style and family business, they have no talent. Dealing in antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and jade requires talent, right? ”

Guan Cuinong is not in a hurry or impatient, and still only talks about homely things.

The Central Plains War was a battle in which the people of the world survived, and Bianliang City, as the ancient capital, bore the brunt of the catastrophe.

Buy gold in troubled times, and hide antiques in prosperous times.

The small rich rely on struggle, the big rich rely on opportunities, and the huge rich rely on life.

Of course, the Great War of the Central Plains was a troubled time, and at that time, there must have been opportunities to buy peerless treasures at low prices. In the peaceful and prosperous era, the price has risen a thousand times or ten thousand times, and that is all due to fate.

How bold is man, how fruitful is the earth.

Hold up the bold, starve the faint-hearted.

People who are really good at business must do the opposite.

I can guess that the Guan family has the courage and knowledge to have today's status, and they can do business with millions, tens of millions, and hundreds of millions of dollars, and they also have a relationship with officialdom and nobles like the three divisions and twelve officials in the capital.

"Mr. Ye, 'Han Family Tongue' is an ancient method of making tea, and the tea, techniques, tools, and brewing used are all extracted from the "Han Xizai Night Banquet", which is unique to the Bianliang Guan family. Only when the real good friends arrive, we are willing to drink a little. Wine is less than a thousand cups of confidants, drinking tea and tasting tea, the same should be the case, what do you say? ”

Guan Cuinong's tone of speech is elegant and gentle, which is completely different from the conversation of modern people.

Only a person like her can afford the words "My Fair Lady" in the Book of Songs.

"Thank you, it's an honor."

I didn't respond much, I was already getting drunk before I drank a drop of wine in front of such a stunning beauty.

However, no matter how beautiful the "Han Family's Tongue" is, it may not be as good as the famous Hong Kong Island tea "Pearl of the Orient", which is also taken from "Han Xizai's Night Banquet".

There are thousands of "sparrow tongues" in the world, and the "Pearl of the Orient" is also a well-deserved first place.

Because it was developed and created by the descendants of the Han family, at the return feast in the past, the big names of the two countries drank the "Pearl of the Orient".

When I traveled to the rivers and lakes, I tasted it on Hong Kong Island, and I will never forget it in my life.

"Big sister—" Someone called out outside the door, and the voice was soft and beautiful.

As soon as the door opened, a young man in a white crisp suit, with neatly combed hair, carrying a purple-gold rectangular gift box in his hand.

After he pushed the door open, he turned around in a dashing manner, waiting for the beautiful woman behind him to come in.

That is the boss Guan I dealt with once, and she accepted my Wang Xizhi's remnant inkstone, which proves that she has a sharp eye and accurate judgment.

"My sister, Guan Mingzhu." Guan Cuinong introduced.

I stood up, and the young man, frowning, strode over to the table and placed the box on the table.

"Ye Tian, Mr. Ye, meet again? What goodies did you bring this time? ”

Guan Mingzhu smiled, and two clear eyes quietly fell from my face to my hands.

I sensed that she was smiling, but with wariness in her eyes.

The young man snorted: "Mingzhu, this is the friend who is good at picking up leaks?" ”

"Wang Xizhi's purple gold inkstone...... Although it is broken, Bianliang City appears for the first time, and the five directions, the value, the value, the value, the value ......"

The young man's facial features are sharp and angular, and the ten knuckles of his hands are slightly protruding, he must be a martial arts practitioner, and he has a little kung fu on his palms.

"Mr. Ye, did you pick up Caomen Street this time? What's the good thing you like again? ”

Guan Mingzhu said this for the second time, I understand that the comer is not good.

I shook my head, and Guan Cuinong spoke: "Mingzhu, this is the person recommended by you and Xiaoyu, I think, Mr. Ye must be a person with real skills, and it should be more than enough to sit in my shop——"

The young man raised his eyebrows sharply, his eyes like two swords, stabbing me in the face.

"He? Sitting in a museum? ”

Guan Cuinong nodded lightly: "Yes, the Guan family is thirsty for talent, Bianliang City is the great god of Zhongzhou, coming from the south to the north, there are many masters, I believe Mr. Ye is one of them, right?" ”

Guan Xiaoyu came back with a teapot, put it on the tea tray, and then turned on the switch of the electric kettle.

"Being able to sit in Sister Cuinong's shop, you can't do it without any real skills-"

The young man said, lifting the lid of the box.

The length of the box is one foot five, the width is one foot, and the height is half a foot.

If there are antiques in it, it must be flat plates, inkstones, etc.

The color of the box is purple and gold, ordinary playthings, only with black, beige, cyan boxes, only with the royal and court-related items, deliberately with this kind of box.

As I expected, the box was lined with thick gold velvet with an inkstone on top.

No one spoke, and the young man was clearly trying to consider me.

The inkstone is rectangular, blue-black, with an old appearance, heavy grinding marks in the middle, and exudes a very strong miscellaneous ink fragrance.

This is an inkstone, judging from the thin gold inscriptions on the four sides, it must have come from the two Song Dynasty.

"Do you see clearly? Let's talk about it? ”

The young man was arrogant, but I didn't answer, just shook my head.

There is no point in analyzing an inkstone in front of these people.

There are so many antique connoisseurs in Bianliang City, for the appreciation of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the best in the country, I say more and say less, and I can't show my superiority at all.

"Don't understand? No way? The young man sneered.

I pointed to the back of his hand and didn't say much.

This time, the three sisters of the Guan family were also stunned, not knowing what I meant.

"If you don't understand, get out...... If you don't understand, hurry up, don't pretend to be deep here! The young man cried out.

Guan Mingzhu frowned: "Young Master Wan, pay attention to politeness." ”

That Young Master Wan sneered again: "Want to sit in Sister Cuinong's house?" Hmph, is it that easy? How many people in Bianliang City want to enter this door? As long as Sister Cuinong speaks, hundreds of people will line up! ”

I sighed: "You, you practice too diligently, both inside and outside, the idea is good, but the way of both civil and military communication is very complicated, and if you practice miscellaneous, people will be wasted." ”

"What?" Young Master Wan glared and rolled up his sleeves suddenly.

Now, I can see it more clearly.

There was a faint flush of blush on each of his hands and wrists upwards.

"Young Master Wan, how long has it been since you had a good rest? It's cold at noon, and it's hot—"

"Huh?"

I hit his key points, these are the harms of ordinary people's "dual cultivation of civil and military".

Wen refers to the cultivation of the four treasures of the study, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and other ideological qualities.

Wu refers to martial arts.

I judged from the protruding features of his knuckles that he practiced kung fu such as fierce and domineering foreign grapplers.

The two clusters of redness on his wrist mean that the blood stasis and poison in his body have accumulated a lot, and the yin and yang have reversed to the point where they can no longer bear it.

"At noon, when I feel cold, I will drink hot tea, hot wine, etc., and use external heat to resist the internal cold, and forcibly suppress it, which is very wrong......"

Young Master Wan took a step back, sweating on his forehead.

"In the middle of the night, I don't know how hot you used—"

"Don't say, don't say!" Young Master Wan shouted.

I know very well that he adopted the method of yin and yang acacia to offset the heat, which is simply a salary from the bottom of the kettle and a dead end.

"I just said it casually, don't be surprised if it's wrong."

Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to the four-character formula of "looking, smelling, asking, and cutting", and I don't judge how the inkstone is, but I point out his physical illness as soon as I look at it, which is what he values most.

The suit he wears is a Hermes brand, his hand is wearing a Rolex anniversary diamond starry watch, and his feet are wearing crocodile leather shoes, which shows that he is the rich second generation of a super-tycoon family.

A piece of famous inkstone, the highest is not more than five million.

In the eyes of these people, it is just a drizzle, but if there is a big problem with his body, billions of dollars can't be exchanged.

"Do you know Chinese medicine? Are you a TCM practitioner? Young Master Wan was stunned.

I shook my head: "It's not a Chinese medicine doctor, I just saw the redness on your wrist and thought of it by chance." Quacks kill people, often using the medicine of tigers and wolves. Your Excellency is a rich man, a lady in the city, and you will come and go as soon as you are called—"

"Don't say it, don't say it, I told you not to say it!" Young Master Wan slammed his hand and grabbed my shoulder.

He really practiced the Mighty Eagle Claw Technique, and his ten fingers were on my shoulders, like eagle claws, digging into my flesh.
