The early morning sun is exceptionally bright, dyeing the streets a golden color, and people start to get busy early.

"Is Hu Panpan's house on the streets and alleys of Hu Ming here?" Chen Yuanyuan, a road idiot, asked while walking, and finally found the right place and arrived smoothly.

Hu Panpan also got up early, put on makeup, and hung his throat in the yard. When she opened the door, Chen Yuanyuan almost didn't recognize her, she was already beautiful, she put on Xiao Dan's makeup, and there was a trace of tenderness between her hanging eyebrows.

"It's so beautiful, if I were a man, I would definitely marry someone as beautiful as you", Chen Yuanyuan sighed.

Hu Panpan enthusiastically pulled Chen Yuanyuan into the house, and the warm atmosphere was filled with the fragrance of tea. She gently poured a full cup of tea for Chen Yuanyuan, "Sister, don't make fun of me, I'm just a thing in the garden for fun, how can I compare with the daughter of a good family." The words revealed a trace of self-deprecation and helplessness, although she was gorgeous, but she was still unmarried at the age of 19 this year, because of this identity, there is no son of a good family, she can marry a drama as a wife, and she is not willing to be a concubine for a lifetime.

"Sister Panpan, don't be presumptuous, what's wrong with singing, is it wrong for a woman to know a craft?" Chen Yuanyuan was indignant, "They just don't want women to be too good and surpass those men."

Since ancient times, wrapping small feet is wrapped in the steps of women.

Use all methods to imprison women, in order to make women willing to stay at home.

"You're so good, no one has ever told me this" Hu Panpan's eyes flashed with some crystals, since she was sold to the drama troupe by her father at the age of 10, she has been learning to sing with the class master, debuted on stage at the age of 12, and became the top pillar of the class at the age of 18. During this period, it was not that there were no men who pursued her, but most of them only wanted to take her as a concubine, and never dared to promise the position of the main wife. She had long looked down on her feelings, and she had been making money to redeem herself and buy this mansion.

"Oh, don't mention these unhappy ones, look at the tool I brought, I will give you a beautiful portrait today" Chen Yuanyuan held up the rice paper, pen and ink in his hand and the paint he gave her yesterday, his eyes full of enthusiasm.

Chen Yuanyuan spread the paper on the table, Hu Panpan sat sideways on the chair, the costume set off her unique temperament, cold and elegant, with slender and distinct fingers.

After about a quarter of an hour, the painting was finished.

"Ah, so fast"

Hu Panpan didn't have much expectations, but when she stood up and picked up the scroll, she was amazed, this is her?

The woman in the painting, her moon-like starry eyes are moving, and her orchid fingers are cocked, sitting on a chair and staring into the distance.

The most important thing is, how can you paint people so vividly? Obviously, she only gave her three boxes of paint yesterday, but the person on the painting has fair and translucent skin and a healthy halo. The sapphire beads sparkle on the head, and there is a faint pink between the eyebrows.

"It's so good, I've never seen a painting with such bright colors"

"It's just three boxes of paint, how can you paint such a color?"

Her gaze fell on the delicate branches of the vase on the table, and every detail was exquisite.

"You only need the three primary colors of red, yellow and blue to adjust the world's colors"

Chen Yuanyuan demonstrated to her that in a small container, a variety of beautiful colors can be concocted.

"Ah, actually, it's so magical, it's even better than those famous painters in Bianjing!"

Hu Panpan was amazed and couldn't put it down when he picked up the portrait.

"Can you draw bigger? I want to hang it outside the troupe," Hu Panpan thought, so that when the guests order the play in the future, they can clearly see the final effect.

"As for the price, how much do you think is appropriate? I'll discuss it with the class master and let him pay for you, if the other sisters in the class see such a beautiful painting, they will definitely rush to ask for it" She knew that Chen Yuanyuan was shy and wanted to help her, besides, with such a beautiful painting, she couldn't wait to show them it.

"Of course, the price, I don't know how to set the right one"

Chen Yuanyuan replied frankly that it was also her first time to sell paintings.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone used in painting don't cost a few dollars, and the most important thing is the painter, the painter is famous, worth a thousand gold, and she also understands that in Meizhou, now she will definitely not want a thousand gold.

Hu Panpan thought for a moment, "I'll give you a price, you can listen to it and see if it's reasonable"

"Because I have also been in contact with other artists before, their simple painting costs about 500 copper coins"

"And your painting, I feel that it is worth at least two jiaozi" In fact, she said that she had to sell a gold ingot, but she couldn't eat a big fat man in one go, and if the price was too expensive, the class owner would not agree to let her paint, "Of course, the price can be set higher in the future, and it can be slightly lower at the beginning." ”

It can be worth 2 jiaozi, which Chen Yuanyuan didn't expect, she originally planned to set up a stall at a relatively low price and sell it for 500 copper coins a piece.

Both Jiaozi can buy the kind of good-looking silk I saw yesterday, not to mention that this kind of portrait painting is very simple, she can draw a picture in 15 minutes, if you need to be more detailed, then add money!

"Okay, then let's press two Jiaozi for a picture"

After deciding the price, Chen Yuanyuan was eager to try, wanting to make money quickly, eating, drinking and having fun, all of which needed a gross ticket.

Hu Panpan admired the picture of the beauty drawn by Chen Yuanyuan, and was in a happy mood, and suddenly felt that something was missing

"Yuanyuan, do you have a seal?" Generally, regular painters will print their own private seals on the side.

"No," Chen Yuanyuan thought, he really needed one.

I vaguely remember that in ancient times, paintings were often accompanied by seals and a poem attached to them, especially in landscape paintings, which could give the paintings more cultural connotation and artistic value.

"I'll help you customize a seal" Hu Panpan took care of this job and stuffed two Jiaozi in her hands.

"What is this for, I said okay to thank you for buying paint for me, this painting doesn't charge any money." Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly excused himself.

Hu Panpan smiled and pressed her hand, "Oh, don't you want to help me draw a bigger picture?" And if you go to the theater to paint, you still need to buy more paint, so take it."

Chen Yuanyuan could only accept it, because she really didn't have any money in her hand and needed this money as start-up capital.
