How is civilization inherited?

It may be through blood, or it may be from culture.

More likely, one or the other is indispensable.

The last and seventh of the Super Challenges is related to the traditional culture of the Dragon Kingdom.

Writing is an important tool for recording the course of history.

It is precisely because of the history books that future generations can understand the deeds of the ancestors.

Only those masterpieces with a great core can transcend the boundaries of mountains and seas and time and influence generations of young people.

Xiao Yi is not going to make words, nor is he going to publish a book and establish a biography, but to engage in the four treasures of the traditional study of the Dragon Kingdom.

There was a time when fountain pens were all the rage in the Dragon Kingdom.

Later, ballpoint pens, fountain pens that required repeated dipping in ink, were withdrawn from the mainstream market.

The wheels of the times roll forward and never stop for anything.

If you can't follow the trend, you will be abandoned by the times.

The traditional Four Treasures of the Scholar's Office are still preserved today and are more used in the calligraphy industry.

Scolding Fang Xuan between the tables, writing a strong book, or a thin gold book that is more than elegant and lacks a sense of strength.

The works of outstanding calligraphers, because of their artistic value, can also fetch high prices.

Measured by money, it is only the most superficial surface.

The significance of traditional cultural inheritance is far greater than the monetary profit created.

The content of the seventh challenge is to invest in a company that manufactures the four treasures of the study.

Pen, ink, paper, inkstone.

Paper mills are relatively common and not very difficult to invest in. Even if they are allowed to switch to the production of traditional rice paper, as long as the money is enough, they will gladly agree.

The inkstone is related to stone carving, not only must have a good stone, but also have a good production process.

The quality of ink has to be judged from many aspects, which can be summed up in a few words: fine smoke, light glue, black and bright, and clear sound.

The production process of the brush is equally complex, and there are also four-character judgment criteria: pointed, qi, round, and healthy.

Xiao Yi has completed six challenges, and only the last one is shivering.

He didn't practice calligraphy, and he didn't know much about the traditional Four Treasures of the Study. Even if you know the superficial judgment method, you don't know which pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are better.

When encountering this kind of thing, the most taboo is not knowing how to pretend to understand, but you still have to consult relevant experts.

Open the phone address book and find Lin Jiqiu's contact information.

A literati of his age has the habit of writing calligraphy to some extent, and it is completely reasonable to know one or two calligraphy masters.

Xiao Yi explained his demands, and immediately heard a hearty laugh on the other end of the phone.

"I didn't expect you to set your sights on the four treasures of the study so quickly. I thought it would take a while for you to feel this way. Lin Jiqiu trusts Xiao Yi's character very much.

I feel that he has a rare sense of family and country, and sooner or later he will tilt his resources to projects in the field of cultural inheritance.

I just didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

"I'll recommend you a master, you go to him, and you're sure to get the answer you want." Lin Jiqiu's answer is very similar to the dialogue in a martial arts novel.

Xiao Yi received the master's contact information.

Immediately save it to the address book and contact this calligraphy master named Gu Qiuyu.

learned that it was Lin Jiqiu who recommended him, and readily agreed to meet Xiao Yi.

……

If you are talking about business, the best place is Baiyun Restaurant. After a few glasses of wine, the other party will be drunk until they lose their minds, and the chances of negotiating a business will increase.

Make an appointment with a calligraphy master, obviously not suitable for drinking.

Intellectuals.

Or is it more appropriate to have a tea ceremony.

The tea tasting room of Baiyun Restaurant is just a side business after all, and its main responsibility is to facilitate business negotiations.

There was a copper stench everywhere.

Not urbane enough.

Mizuchado is a long-established shop that has been in business for many years, and it is full of experienced tea masters.

A pot of tea with precious tea leaves can be sold at a sky-high price.

If it weren't for seeing the master, Xiao Yi would not have thought of coming to this kind of place to consume.

Gu Qiuyu pays great attention to her appearance, and at the age of 50, she still keeps her hair black and shiny from time to time. As soon as the white hair grows stubble, it will immediately dye it black.

The meticulous attitude led to the Mediterranean.

When I looked in the mirror, I felt really unsightly, so I simply shaved my head.

He is about 1.75 meters tall, relatively thin, and wears the traditional costume of the Dragon Kingdom, the Tang coat.

Strip buttons, meticulously fastened.

There was also a young woman behind him, also wearing a white Tang coat, ponytail, goose egg face, and willow eyebrows, a bit like a woman who jumped out of an ancient painting.

Gentle and atmospheric, there is a kind of traditional beauty.

"Hello, President Xiao. I am Gu Qiuyu, the president of the Longcheng Calligraphers Association. Gu Qiuyu took the initiative to stretch out her right hand and introduce herself at the same time.

"I'm Xiao Yi." Xiao Yi held Gu Qiuyu's hand and briefly introduced himself.

"Let me introduce you, this is my apprentice and my daughter Gu Ruonan."

"Fortunately."

Xiao Yi simply shook hands with Gu Ruonan.

The thought in his heart was not how beautiful she was, but that he was happy that she was a girl, otherwise he would join the bald army like his father.

The idea is a little crooked.

Xiao Yi realized that this thought was rude, and hurriedly withdrew his thoughts and summoned a senior tea master.

The skillfulness of the technique made Xiao Yi breathtaking.

"President Xiao, I guess you come to this place from time to time." Gu Qiuyu looked at Xiao Yi with a smile.

"To tell you the truth, it's the first time I've patronized the water tea ceremony."

"It shouldn't be. Isn't the level of consumption here just a sprinkling of water for you? Gu Qiuyu was talking about Xiao Yi's spending power.

The reason why Xiao Yi didn't come was not all because of money, but also for more important reasons.

Time.

You have to calm down and savor the tea.

Only in this way can you appreciate the wonders of gongfu tea.

Xiao Yi, an enterprising who wants to increase his assets all the time, can hardly have a full few hours of calm time to experience this traditional tea art.

explained the reason in detail and solved the confusion in Gu Qiuyu's heart.

"It turned out that it was because I was too busy. I'll just say, a big boss of your level is not short of this money at all. ”

When Xiao Yi was communicating with Gu Qiuyu, he could always feel Gu Ruonan's gaze.

She is a very beautiful girl, but like Tang Shiya, she tends to be gentle and elegant.

Xiao Yi is a rough man.

I like to drive and tell jokes, do some novel flower work, and don't have much in common with this kind of girl.

Even though he felt her gaze, he deliberately pretended not to see it.

The tea master brewed the big red robe, put the three purple sand cups in front of the guests, and said softly: "Three of you, please use tea." ”

Xiao Yi picked up the small purple sand cup, put it under his nose and smelled it, and suddenly felt a strange fragrance.

In the end, it is a good tea, and it feels different.

Take a sip, only to feel the rich fragrance and fragrance, which is endlessly memorable.

"Good tea, good craftsmanship!" Gu Qiuyu is a middle and high master, not only knows how to taste tea, but also tastes the craftsmanship of the tea master.

Even if you have a little bit of temperature, you can't be considered a master.

Gu Qiuyu is a calligrapher who knows how to master the heat best.

What Xiao Yi wanted to ask was not how to write good calligraphy, but where to buy good pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

When Gu Ruonan heard Xiao Yi's question, she almost squirted out the tea in her mouth. Hurriedly swallowed, so that he did not lose his temper on the tea table.

Xiao Yi's eyes were very keen and captured her action.

Gu Qiuyu said with a smile: "Beginners don't have to care too much about the material of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, first practice the shape and spirit, and then pursue high quality." ”

In short, don't do equipment party when the basics are rough.

As a result, when I looked up, I remembered that there was a big boss worth billions sitting opposite.

It is impossible to run out of money.

"Xuan paper is the easiest to buy, whether it is Chunfeng rice paper in Suhe Prefecture or Jing'an rice paper in Longdu, the quality is excellent."

A good memory is better than a bad pen.

Xiao Yi took out his mobile phone and recorded the two good rice papers mentioned by Gu Qiuyu.

Whoever needs the money more will let the money flow to.

Look at fate.

"You're pretty studious." Gu Qiuyu didn't know what was going on, so he praised casually.

Gu Ruonan is the same age as Xiao Yi, so it is easier to guess the entrepreneur's thoughts, but he feels that his father is a little cute.

People are clearly looking for a new industry, but they think that they want to learn calligraphy seriously.

"Where is the best brush?"

"There are many good brush manufacturers, and there are a few in Longcheng. It's not the brand that's important, it's the comfort of the user. I can't recommend this kind of thing to you, but you have to experience it yourself. ”

Gu Ruonan really couldn't look at it, and said with a smile: "Dad, Boss Xiao wants to invest in related industries. Just tell him a few good companies. ”

Gu Qiuyu looked surprised, then looked at Xiao Yi and asked, "President Xiao, did you invite me over this time, is it really for this matter?" ”

"I want to inject capital into the four treasures of the study to make their product quality to the next level." Xiao Yi replied truthfully.

Gu Qiuyu said with a smile: "You don't need to ask my old man about this kind of trivial matter. Drink tea first, and then let Xiao Nan introduce you. ”

Xiao Yi had no choice but to wait to ask this intellectual girl for advice.
