There are three to five painting galleries in Xinfeng County.
Because of the prosperous times, from the imperial capital of Luoyang to the roads, prefectures and counties in various places, no matter there was a good harvest or a drought, music, chess, calligraphy and painting were all elegant things.
But even the best painters' copies are very abstract and cannot be lifelike.
Not long after, Yu Tiance and Shen Jing brought their paintings to the Yanyun Painting Gallery, the largest painting gallery in Beicheng.
"Boy, where's the shopkeeper? I'm here to sell paintings."
oh?
The waiter glanced at Yu Tiance up and down. Seeing that the two of them were well dressed, he smiled and said, "Did you paint it yourself, or is it an ancient painting that has been collected?"
"I drew it myself."
this……
As we all know, drawing is different from memorizing, and it requires many times of practice to master the skills.
The boy in front of him was only eighteen or nineteen years old.
The waiter took it for granted that there were no good paintings on the opposite side, so he pointed to the paintings on the wall and said: "Young Master, these paintings behind me are basically sold for ten taels of silver. It is not convenient to disclose how much they were collected. "
oh?
Yu Tiance glanced at the paintings all over the wall.
Basically they are landscape paintings, a few depict prosperous markets, and some depict beauties singing and dancing.
Although all painters have painting skills, there is no comparison with his paintings.
"Master, if your paintings are better than these, give me a look. There are too many people looking for our shopkeeper, and we can't just mess with him."
Right……
"Hey, isn't this my son-in-law?"
It can be said that the world is small. The people you miss are only so close that you will never meet them in your lifetime.
The world is so big, the less you want to see someone, the more likely you will be able to meet someone.
As soon as he took off the painting tube he was carrying, Shen Kang came in with his servant.
"So it's Mr. Shen. Are you here to buy paintings? Please sit down first and I'll call the shopkeeper!" When the waiter saw Shen Kang, he quickly bowed and brought a stool.
Who doesn’t know the big landowners in Beicheng?
Xinfeng County, one of the Four King Kongs!
Shen Kang sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and looked at Yu Tiance with a proud face: "Do you have no money to eat? You are still selling paintings. Do you have such skills?"
Yu Tiance didn't bother to argue.
There are too many people here, and he is still his father-in-law. No matter how dissatisfied he is, he must give him enough face. Etiquette, morals, and ethics must not be messed up.
Shen Jing stepped forward quickly, held Shen Kang's arm with her little hand, looked around and said, "Dad, there are so many people, why are you making fun of him! Besides, you know that Lang Jun can't paint?"
snort!
Shen Kang raised the corner of his mouth, looked at Yu Tiance with disdain, turned to his daughter and said, "If he has that ability, he can't even afford food since his father died? Can he take you to starve with him?"
no……
"Dad, why don't you blame me? After his father died, you always pulled Lang Jun to play mahjong. Lang Jun has always been short-sighted, and you still teamed up with your brothers-in-law to calculate his money!"
snort!
Shen Kang instantly became unhappy and reprimanded: "Little girl Pianzi, who do you belong to? I am your biological father, and you are talking to him?"
"This is all true~"
Shen Jing pouted and retorted dissatisfiedly.
Shen Kang despised this son-in-law. As soon as the young couple saved some money, he had to try to cheat the young couple out of it, hoping to make the young couple unable to survive and then break them up.
She had seen through it a long time ago, so she always went home to borrow money.
snort!
"I'll train you when I get home. There are too many people here!"
Shen Kang suppressed a blush and rolled his eyes at Yu Tiance: "I happened to meet you today, and my father-in-law scolded you a few times. Since your father died, Xiao Jiu has borrowed twenty pieces from me. It's time It’s time to pay it back! If you can’t afford it, you two should make peace!”
"Dad!" Shen Jing stamped her feet angrily.
This father is determined to tear them apart.
Twenty strings, could it be that you took it out just for a reason?
"Father-in-law, do you know that I can't afford to pay you back? Isn't it embarrassing for such a rich man to chase after twenty taels of silver?"
Only then did Shen Kang realize that the onlookers were all looking at him, covering their mouths with their hands, whispering to each other, and laughing in weird ways.
Bastard, he's choked up again!
Not long after, shopkeeper Sun Gang came out of the back room and bowed: "Mr. Shen, I heard from the waiter that your son-in-law is here to sell paintings?"
"right!"
Shen Kang stood up and patted Yu Tiance on the shoulder: "He is my son-in-law who is not good at anything and eats nothing. The family has no money to eat again, so I want to learn to paint. Old Sun, don't hit me either. He, give me some face, count as many coins as you can..."
Haha~
"Could it be that you are Yu..."
No matter who is in front or behind, Shen Kang curses wherever he goes. Who knows in the streets and alleys?
As soon as Sun Gang heard this description, he thought of who it was.
"Exactly, Uncle Sun, let's look at the painting first."
Yu Tiance opened the lid of the bamboo tube, took out a scroll, and carefully brought it forward.
Yanyun Painting Gallery is the largest painting gallery in Xinfeng County. How can it accept paintings from all three religions?
Shopkeeper Sun didn't want to read it, for fear of damaging Yu Tiance's confidence, but he had to give Shen Kang face, so he could only reluctantly accept the scroll.
"Biaozi, reciting poems and painting is not a day's work. Since you have an idea, you can't give up. The next judgment of Uncle Sun does not mean that this thing has no value..."
However, the moment Sun Gang opened the scroll, his expression was all kinds of strange.
First he frowned, then stared, then opened his mouth, then raised the corners of his mouth, finally laughed, and after a moment it turned into a surprised expression...
Hahaha!
Shen Kang stood aside and said proudly: "Biaozi, I laughed out loud when I saw how angry you were with shopkeeper Sun! I can't afford to pay back twenty taels of silver, so don't delay my daughter..."
Don't don't!
Unexpectedly, before Shen Kang finished speaking, he was interrupted by shopkeeper Sun, who turned the scroll over.
Oh My God!
All the literati and poets present were involved in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. The painting in the hands of shopkeeper Sun had an artistic conception that they had never seen before!
The woman in the painting is lifelike, just like Chang'e from the Nine Heavens coming to earth, with her fairy spirit floating in the air!
It is no exaggeration to say that she is even more beautiful than Shen Jing herself!
Shopkeeper Sun asked doubtfully: "Biaozi, no, Yu..."
"Uncle Sun, my name is Yu Tiance."
"Oh, Tiance, did you paint this painting?"
right!
Yu Tiance nodded and said, "Uncle Sun, how much do you think this painting is worth?"
"This is too precious. How much do you want? Just give me a price!"
"Fifty taels!"
Hahaha!
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, all the literati present laughed.
Love is so poor that a painting has to be so expensive?
Shopkeeper Sun was a royal painter. He lost his job because he failed to remove the scab on the imperial concubine's face when he was painting for her, so he returned to his hometown and started a painting studio.
How dare you ask for so much from someone who has been a royal painter?
However, Shen Kang and this group of literati were not proud for long.
only because……
Shopkeeper Sun bowed and said with a loud smile: "Mr. Shen, for your sake, your son-in-law sold me such a good painting for fifty taels. Sun owes you a favor!"
