Chapter 13: 013 Buying Paintings
013 Buy a painting
"Cut, I don't know about your little ninety-nine. Although he turned into a fox, his disdainful eyes were too obvious.
I shook my head, regained my spirits, maybe in a few days Yuan Jing will be fine, "Let's go!"
Today's daughter country is really rich in land and resources, and it was not so lively a few years ago. I was dressed in a white robe, and I had been standing on my shoulders with a fox spirit, which inevitably attracted the burning eyes of everyone.
"Little fox, am I ...... Too... Isn't it low-key?" I asked softly, suddenly feeling very embarrassed, and it was very uncomfortable to have so many people looking at me wherever I went.
The little fox snorted dissatisfiedly, "You just pretend! Isn't that good! Our fox is naturally beautiful, and we are like this everywhere." "Is this girl praising himself or me?" But it's really not safe to come out like this as a man in the daughter country. ”
yes, I forgot, except for the demon way, no one knows that I am a woman. And in the daughter country...... Then I'm really in danger.
"This son, is he from out of town?" asked a well-dressed old man, cautiously approaching me.
I looked at him suspiciously, and after thinking about it, I shook my head, "No, it's just that I rarely go out because I'm not feeling well." ”
"Hehe, no wonder Childe looks like a firework that doesn't eat the world, I wonder if Childe can go upstairs to talk to our master?"
"Your master?" I followed his hand to look, and it turned out that I had unconsciously walked to the most famous Wanxiang Building in my daughter country.
Not everyone can come to Wanxianglou, not people with money, power, and status in the capital, and no one can enter at all. On the surface, it is a brilliant restaurant, but in fact, hehe, everything is done inside. As far as I know, the inside story of Wanxiang Building is comparable to the palace, secret passages, secret passages, and mechanisms......
"Hehe, is the son hesitating? No one in the capital knows our master, and everyone else is eager to strengthen our master. ”
I frowned, I have always despised this kind of person, but as a man, I can't afford to offend these rich people, I will smile, "Go back and tell your master, I will sneak out of the house today, don't stay out longer, come out and take a breath and leave." ”
Lao Su was reluctantly sent away by me, I continued to walk forward, Xiaohu snorted disdainfully: "I didn't expect you to be quite powerful." ”
"Well, I don't want to get out and cause trouble. ”
"Maybe it will be good for you to have that person, and it will be good for your revenge. ”
My eyes sank, I had enough troubles today, and Xiaohu always stimulated me to take revenge, which made me start to dislike him a little. But when I think of him, he also treats me as a friend to care about my affairs, after all, he is a demon who is not deeply involved in the world, love is love, hate is hate, and revenge is his character.
"Little fox, let's not talk about revenge first, I have a sense of proportion, since it has become bigger now, and the demon path is not just as simple as unlocking the seal on my body, I can't explain it for a while, I have more curious things. ”
The most curious thing is, of course, that my painting has been sold for a market price. I ran to the future calligraphy and painting shop for a long time, pushed open the door, and was a little surprised, there was actually a little more bookish smell here than before, and a few wisps of fragrance wafted from time to time. Is this really the store I came to five years ago? By the way, what about the boss who was smiling so obscenely?
"What does Childe want to buy?" A voice came from the inner room, which surprised me a lot, and the elegant atmosphere made people a little frightened and inexplicably nervous.
"Buy... Draw..."I said.
The curtain of housekeeping was opened, and in the middle sat an elegant man, saliva flowing in his mouth, and he secretly said in his heart, beautiful~
"Since Childe is here to buy paintings, why are you stupid, please come into the house. ”
Suddenly, I walked into the back room and looked around, and the setting here gave people the illusion that they could only be viewed from a distance, not played with.
"Childe sits, don't be restrained. The man spoke slowly, flicking his sleeves in his blue and elegant clothes, and retreating from the two male servants at the door.
I found myself stunned again, and smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I rarely go down the mountain, I really don't know how much has changed here." I remember when I was ...... The owner of this calligraphy and painting shop seems to be an old man......"
"Hehe, what Childe said is good, I bought this store a few years ago. ”
"Huh?" Why haven't I heard Yuanjing say it?
"Huh. The man smiled, "Whose painting does Childe want to buy?"
"I ...... I want Qin Luo's. "When I looked around, I didn't see my paintings in this room, because my painting scrolls are quite special, so I can see them at a glance, but there are no paintings of mine hanging or rolling in this room. I thought to myself: It doesn't make sense, my market price has been rising in the past few years, how could it not be? I should have hung up my paintings as treasures in the town! Okay, I'm narcissistic, but it's not like there aren't any of them, right? Are they all sold?
"Qin Luo?" the man raised his eyebrows, "You want his paintings?"
"Well, I'm going to see his paintings!"
"Oh?"
I don't know if it's my delusion or what, but a mysterious smile appeared on his face, which made people depressed.
"Then you wait a minute, because this Qin Luo only paints two landscape paintings a year, and each time he sells them at a high price, I don't take it lightly to show ordinary people, his painting style is really rare, to be honest, I am not willing to sell." ”
I was a little proud of him.
But I was still very calm, "In this case, I don't want to be difficult, just come and see Qin Luo's paintings." ”
He got up, took out a painting from a delicate cabinet in the back, and carefully spread it out in front of me. It seems that he has preserved it very well, this painting was painted by me three years ago, but it is still preserved as new, and it also has a faint fragrance, which is the smell of Yuanzhu giving me a specific painting scroll.
I watched with a deep heart, a rare confidant in life, and I felt a sense of accomplishment when I saw this man cherish my paintings so much.
"This painting is actually lacking, the landscape is indeed beautiful, but it has lost a little aura. ”
"What do you say?" I was curious about his assessment.
"Each of his paintings always has a faint sadness, even resentment. ”
I sighed, you can feel this too? sighed: "How can you not complain ......?"
"It seems that Childe is also a person who knows paintings, and this painting will be given to Childe, but can you tell the honorable surname, in the next book. ”
"Yi Shu?" I secretly sighed, there are very few people with the surname Yi in the daughter country, but the adjacent Shun country, the surname Yi is a symbol of the royal family, and the Yi book in front of me will ...... Maybe I'm thinking too much, and if it really is, I won't sue me so lightly.
I glanced at the little fox who was already dozing off my shoulder, held it in my arms, and looked at him seriously, "Brother Yi, since we have a fateful acquaintance, I will offer you a painting and give you a painting." I picked up the pen and ink on the table and carefully drew his portrait.
Actually, what I'm best at is not landscape painting, but portraits.
When I'm painting, I'm so engrossed in it that I completely ignore the surprise in the look in the eyes of the person next to me. Until he finished painting, he stared blankly, his gaze ranging from surprise to surprise.
"You......! The style of painting is so similar to Qin Luo......'s!
I answered, "But Qin Luo never paints portraits. ”
"Right...... Could it be that you and Qin Luo are brothers?"
Squirt! I almost spurted blood! This Yi Shu doesn't look like a person with a sick brain! It's so obvious that I'm Qin Luo's question, and I actually asked such a low IQ question! Laughed dryly, "Hehe, it's okay if you think so, but I think if I were Qin Luo's senior brother, there would be no need to come out and buy his paintings." ”
