Through the recent few chats, Wu Yuan knew that her sister-in-law was unreliable.
She woke up once due to thirst around eight o'clock. After drinking the honey water placed by the bedside, she fell back to sleep until 10:30 in the morning.
When I woke up again, I was still feeling lazy, not even wanting to move a toe. Not only were the bones in my body soft, but even my own bone marrow had a lazy atmosphere.
After brewing for a long time, I got up from the bed and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
After taking a shower, she looked at her body in the mirror and felt something in her heart.
"How many men want it...but now I just want to be with Teacher Li."
She thought softly, she was nothing like the strong woman outside who had been working hard in the mall for many years.
She was smart and fierce in the shopping mall, but now she looks like a little girl who is not very smart, but very paranoid.
In recent months, she feels that her life has been extremely fulfilling and happy. She usually devotes herself to her career, making money, and realizing her social value. For the rest of the time, she hoped that Teacher Li would think more of her, a student who loved taking pictures, and call her to attend classes more often.
After putting on her bathrobe, Wu Yuan slowly walked out of the bathroom and came to the floor-to-ceiling window of the bedroom.
Looking at the sofa chair, she couldn't help but smile when she remembered that Li Shi liked to sit here reading books, playing with his mobile phone, and holding herself while chatting.
Lie on it with your phone.
After staying quietly for a long time, he took his mobile phone to edit WeChat and sent it to Li Shi.
Then he followed the lazy aftertaste in his body and continued to be in a daze.
She kind of enjoyed this kind of confusion where her head went blank, like she was falling into the clouds.
After a while, the WeChat alert sounded. Wu Yuan's body trembled subconsciously, and she quickly picked up the phone next to her to unlock it and check it.
Li Shi: "Of course."
Seeing the satisfactory reply, Wu Yuan's face immediately burst into smile.
She just felt a force rising up out of thin air in her body, which instantly restored her vitality. Inexplicably, her laziness faded away, and her drive to do work and career once again occupied the high ground of her thoughts.
After quickly typing back "Hmm," Wu Yuan immediately found her assistant's number and dialed it.
The phone rang twice and was answered.
She explained her work vigorously and resolutely: "You will inform the store manager and deputy store manager again about the meeting in the afternoon, so that they must arrive on time at three o'clock. No one can ask for leave or be late. Besides, it is not convenient for me to drive today. You must arrive before two o'clock." Come pick me up at Weini Community.”
"Okay, Mr. Wu, I'll do it right away."
The assistant hung up the phone, doubts arose in his heart, and he couldn't help but mutter: "Mr. Wu's relatives should be here some time ago. Did I remember it wrong?"
Quickly flip to the memo on your phone and check it.
"I remember correctly, it's strange."
…
Stephen Wilshire is a special painter. He has been autistic since he was a child, but his memory is amazing. He can remember the whole city in a short time and then draw the details, so he is called "human flesh". camera".
When Li Shi studied this painter, he directly ignored other aspects of the artistry of his works and only focused on his treatment of spatial layout and interweaving relationships.
After using several pieces of sketch paper to copy the entire painting, Li Shi stared at the "masterpiece" with hundreds of buildings and fell into deep thought.
"He is equivalent to copying the world he sees with his eyes on paper."
"My memory is not as perverted as his for the time being, but my copying ability is stronger than his."
"He is called a 'human camera', and if I continue to practice like this, I may really be able to be a 'human printer' in the future."
Li Shi smiled, packed up his painting tools, carried a bag, and went out with his car keys.
When you arrive at the hotel, take the elevator to the concierge on the fourth floor, then transfer to the 93rd floor.
While I was still checking in at the front desk, Xiang Zi, who I met at Wu Yuan’s place yesterday, sent me a WeChat message: “Li Shi, you can draw, can you help me design a logo for my future studio? I’ll treat you to dinner!”
Li Shi took the room card from the waiter, typed with one hand and asked: "What studio?"
Xiang Zi: "As I said yesterday, I plan to shoot ancient style videos, and I plan to set up a studio to operate it."
Li Shi: "That's good. I hope your video will become popular in the future, but you'd better find a professional to design it. I haven't done this before, and I've been busy recently and don't have time."
Design requires a lot of brainpower, which he finds troublesome.
And he is indeed very busy. There is so much knowledge and skills waiting for him to learn and explore in all mankind and all civilizations, so there is no time to waste on someone he just met.
He doesn't lack her meal.
Xiang Zi: "Oh, okay (pouts)"
Li Shi glanced at her reply and didn't care. He put away his phone and took the elevator to the 91st floor.
After entering the room, Li Shi looked at the large floor-to-ceiling windows composed of two sides of 90-degree glass, and was a little surprised. In this way, he could observe the city scenery outside from multiple angles, and he could use different perspectives to create when sketching.
After visiting the room for a while, he took out the things in his backpack and started painting.
This painting lasted a whole day and night.
It's not that Li Shi was thinking about it all night, maybe the fire in his body has been greatly relieved recently, or something else, and his study status is particularly good.
Moreover, the viewing angle of this room is just right to see the best night view of Tanzhou's urban buildings. Painting such a complex building complex with a wide viewing angle is also a large painting among large paintings. There are so many details in it that without even realizing it, it changes from day to day. I painted until night, and then painted from night to early morning.
On the second day, he finished drawing the entire sketchbook he brought, then put down his pen and stood up, stretching. He felt not tired at all, and even felt very comfortable physically and mentally. He felt that he had gained a lot. Very fulfilling.
"This time, the ability to handle spatial layout has been sufficiently strengthened."
Li Shi picked up his phone and checked the time. He found that it was already 10:30 in the morning. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect time to fly by so fast. It seemed that not long after, he had been painting for twenty hours continuously. .
After checking out of the room, Li Shi found something to eat at a nearby restaurant and drove back to Phoenix Bay.
Although his current body didn't feel like staying up all night and he was still full of energy, he still took a shower and went to bed to sleep.
Two hours later, I woke up naturally feeling refreshed.
In the afternoon, he painted at his home.
Whether it is the living room or the master bedroom study, the river view outside the window is a good view of the city.
At 6:30 in the evening, he packed his things again and went out with his bag on his back.
In the next few days, except for completing the agreed deal with Chen Yao who drove to Tanzhou again, Li Shi spent the rest of the time traveling through the streets and alleys of Tanzhou, looking for unique products. Realm sketching.
He seemed to have entered a special state. He was immersed in studying. His mood was extremely stable and calm. He painted and looked at paintings every day... Even the transaction with Chen Yao did not make his mood fluctuate too much. .
In this way, Li Shi painted the buildings and people of this city one by one.
The drawings gradually filled a cardboard box.
Until this morning, when he was painting an old alley in Wenmiaoping next to Changjun Middle School, he suddenly received a call from his studio teacher Gao Mei.
Gao Mei urged him with a smile on the phone: "Li Shi, my classes have been prepared for a long time. When do you plan to complete the last thirty lessons? I'm telling you, if you don't come to study, , tuition fees will not be refunded.”
Li Shi also smiled and said: "Teacher Gao, I'm sorry, I've been busy doing urban landscape sketches recently, and I forgot about class while doing it. So, I will make adjustments and try my best to go back to Zhaoyang County for classes in the next two days. "
After hanging up the phone, I looked up and looked around. Suddenly I felt a slight trance, as if the past few days had been a bit dreamy.
He called up the learning panel and took a look.
"Although I am still (proficient), after these days of sketching like crazy, I have made rapid progress in sketching urban architecture and urban humanities, and I have also accumulated a lot of practical experience based on my hand speed!"
"As long as I complete the practice of sketching natural landscapes and human figures, my promotion to (Proficient+) will definitely be a sure thing."
Li Shi took a look and decided to go back to his hometown now.
He picked up his mobile phone, opened 12306, checked, and found that there were no business seats, so he bought a first-class high-speed rail ticket back to the county seat.
Then he called his assistant Zhang Huijing: "I will send you the location later. Come over right away and drive me to the high-speed rail station."
When he went out to sketch recently, he went wherever he went, so he didn't drive. When necessary, he would call for a taxi online, or like now, ask Zhang Huijing to come and pick him up.
The Volvo xc90 was temporarily left to her to drive.
"Okay, boss, I'll be right away."
After hanging up the phone and sending the location on WeChat, Li Shi continued to finish the unfinished paintings in the sketchbook.
More than twenty minutes later, Zhang Huijing came over according to the location.
Li Shi did not return to Phoenix Bay. He sat in the co-pilot of Volvo XC90 and asked his assistant to take him directly to the high-speed rail station.
On the way, after the car turned right from the airport expressway onto Yuhua Avenue, Li Shi was browsing the latest news on his mobile phone when a text message notification suddenly popped up on the screen. When he clicked on it, he became very excited.
It is an ICBC account arrival reminder text message: ICBC (95588): Your bank card with the last number 2588 has received (transferred) 22,896,000 yuan from ICBC at 10:26 on December 22, and the balance is 555,16096.80 yuan...
"This is Chen Yao's payment after tax withholding!"
Li Shi quickly counted the numbers on the text message, and a smile appeared on his face.
He had never seen cash before, and he had been in a special state of study, so he was quite calm. Now that the money has arrived, he has come out of the study state and saw such a large amount of income. , couldn't help but get a little excited.
Just as he was about to log in to the bank's app to check again, Chen Yao's phone called.
The two chatted briefly.
After such an interruption, Li Shi's mood calmed down a lot - after all, it was not the time when he had just gained wealth through the learning panel half a year ago.
But he was still very happy. He still checked on the app, and immediately transferred some money to other bank accounts, as well as Alipay and WeChat wallets. In the end, the situation of his several accounts became: ICBC 55.17 million, CCB 1022 Ten thousand, Bank of China 9.3 million, Agricultural Bank of China 2.1 million, total 77.01 million.
"Over seventy-seven million, which is only over twenty million away from a 'small goal'."
Li Shi thought for a while. The domestic cultural and art centers and academic centers are all in the capital. There is a high probability that he will go to the capital to study in the future.
In this case, you can consider buying a property in Beijing and make preparations in advance.
He remembered that he had seen on the news that there were restrictions on buying houses in the capital, so he used his mobile phone to search for requirements for outsiders to buy houses in the capital.
"For foreigners who want to buy a house in Beijing, they need a tax payment certificate (referring to personal income tax) in Beijing for five consecutive years or a social insurance certificate in Beijing for five consecutive years..."
Li Shi raised his eyebrows when he saw the first one.
"If you want to buy a house in Beijing within five years, it seems that you can only buy houses with no purchase restrictions, or open a company, buy it in the name of the company, and then pay the property tax."
He checked the situation in Shanghai again.
Purchase restrictions are also imposed in Shanghai, but they are not as strict as those in Beijing.
Li Shi thought for a while and decided to find a local agency to find out the specific situation if he had time.
Twenty minutes later, we arrived at the high-speed rail station.
After finding a seat in the waiting room and sitting down, seeing that there was still half an hour left, he took out a book from his bag and started reading it carefully.
This is the book "Twenty Lectures on Masterpieces of World Art" by the famous translator and art critic Fu Lei.
Some time ago, when Li Shi was copying some world-famous paintings, he suddenly became curious about how others, especially other painters and critics, viewed these handed down works.
I found several books online, and this is one of them.
Half an hour later, I got on the high-speed rail.
His seat was next to the aisle, and there was an aunt in her fifties sitting inside, dozing off.
Two seats on the other side of the aisle were occupied by a father and son. The boy was sixteen or seventeen years old. He was watching a video on his mobile phone. From the sound, he could tell he was scrolling through TikTok.
Li Shi put his backpack on the luggage rack, sat down and continued reading.
In the book, Fu Lei comments very delicately on the world art masterpieces he cited. He not only talks about the works, but also talks about the authors of these works.
"As the saying goes, the writing is like the person, the words are like the person, and the painting is like the person. In fact, it is not the case. Some writers' articles are upright and awe-inspiring, some calligraphers write upright and majestic, and some painters' paintings are sunny, but they themselves are..."
Li Shi was reading with great emotion when suddenly the conversation between father and son came from beside him.
"Why don't you stop using Douyin? Does the noisy person know?"
"It's boring, we have to sit for so long."
"Look at Shusha, look at the handsome guy next to you. He is reading a book as soon as he gets in the car. What is the use of reading these girls on the Internet? No matter how much he reads, he will not become your girlfriend. It is a waste of time, but reading books is It’s different, the knowledge you learn is always yours!”
"Shit, that person is reading a mao book. I just saw it. The cover of that book is a woman with a bare butt."
"..."
Li Shi, who had good hearing and understood the content of their conversation, was embarrassed.
He closed the book, looked at the world famous painting on the cover, and touched his nose.
My hand was injured today, so updates are a little slow, sorry.
