Fang Yi listened to Wang Hongqi chatting for a few words about painting, but his main attention was still on the two little dolls. It is true that the children of the poor have already taken charge of the family, and such a small and older girl baby knows how to take care of her younger brother.
After looking at the child for a while, Fang Yi suddenly felt interested. He turned to Wang Hongqi and said: "Come to my place when you have time in the future. My studio is at No. 19 above the slope! In the studio
There are still guests here, so I will stay soon."
After listening to Fang Yi's words, Wang Hongqi thought about it and said, "Are you Mr. Liu Hongshuo's disciple?" Seeing Fang Yi nodding, he smiled and said, "Then I must bother you when you have time."
Smiling and nodding to Wang Hongqi, Fang Yi heard two children's voices as soon as he walked to the door: "Goodbye, uncle!".
"Goodbye! Let's go and play with uncle when we have time." Fang Yi waved to the two little carrot heads and left Wang Hongqi's home.
After arriving at the supermarket, I bought a few packs of instant noodles, then turned around and walked back to my studio.
"Why have you been gone for so long! If you don't come back, I'm going to go find you." Mu Jin said as she watched her boyfriend enter the house carrying the bag. After saying that, he stood up from the cardboard box, took two steps and took the box.
The bag in Yi's hand.
Fang Yi said with a smile: "I met a furniture seller, so I followed him to have a look. At this glance, I encountered something!".
"Huh? Have you eaten?" Wei Jin, who was lying on the cardboard box, heard someone talking and opened his eyes in a daze while sleeping and looked at Fang Yi and asked.
"Wait a minute, I just came back and haven't done it yet!" Fang Yi said, sitting on the cardboard box with his butt tilted. Then he told the story of meeting Wang Hongqi's family.
Mu Jin listened to Fang Yi's words. She was about to cook noodles but stopped. After listening to her boyfriend finish the whole story, she opened her mouth and asked loudly in the kitchen: "He left the two children at home like this when he went out? What's wrong?"
It's dangerous! If something happens, he won't be able to cry in a good tone! How can this person be so irresponsible? You should find someone to watch over the child no matter what! If the father doesn't act like a father, then the child's
Where is mom?".
"How could I know this? The first time we met was not to check household registration," Fang Yi said, shaking his head.
Wei Jin lost his sleep after hearing this, sat up from the cardboard box and asked Fang Yi, "How about Wang Hongqi's painting?"
"It's just so so! There's nothing special about it, it's just stable!" Fang Yi said.
Wei Jin sighed after hearing this and said: "What a portrayal of Tao Yong and I's future life!".
Mu Jin then washed the pot before starting to start the fire. He touched it a few times and asked Fang Yi, "How do you turn this thing on?" Mu Jin didn't know how to use the stove switch installed.
Fang Yi stood up and taught his girlfriend to turn on the gas switch, then lit the fire and turned back to Ke Li's cardboard box.
"How can you and Tao Yong be so poor? Don't bullshit me!" Fang Yi said to Wei Jin. Although the family conditions of these two people are not as good as those of his own family, they are no worse than riding bicycles for more than 20 years.
When you go to work, a pair of sunglasses costs hundreds of dollars. How can your family be so poor?
"Life has been like this, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your two children!" Mu Jin said while cooking in the kitchen: "Now I hear how you painters are so unreliable! Rich people
When the rich die, this is what the poor will look like!”.
Wei Jin said to Mu Jin: "Every country that engages in pure art is like this. Only a handful of people can become famous. Looking at a painting worth tens of millions, how many can there be? Some masters were alive.
The stories are all so tragic! Not to mention the unknown and poor family. Artists in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, have suffered the same way, and their suffering is about to get out of hand! Wang Hongqi is considered good now."
"That's fine! A grown man can just go to the construction site to carry bricks and push cement and he can support a family in a decent way! Still thinking about painting after living like this? No responsibility!" Mu Jin said.
Fang Yi sighed after hearing this and said: "It's really good. At least Wang Hongqi still has a stable job as a school teacher, and he can earn a lot of money! If he didn't have this job, look at it! He has painted hundreds of dollars for others.
A piece of painting, the cost plus the time, is really not as much as what you can earn by pushing a trolley at the construction site!"
"As the old saying goes, the poor learn literature and the rich learn martial arts! If you don't have money and want to learn martial arts, you can raise two or three chickens at home to get some eggs to add a little nutrition. How can you save money on studying art? Paint and paper.
It’s free like that? Plus training classes and so on, 99% of those who learn painting will probably not be able to get the money back by painting in the future!” Wei Jin said.
Mu Jin said: "This man has some perseverance!" After saying that, he looked at Fang Yi outside the glass door and asked: "You think he will never be famous?".
"It can't be said that if there are paintings that are highly praised by galleries, they can also bring fame! But there are so many poor painters who are not relatives or friends. Why do people spend money to praise Wang Hongqi so casually?
"?" Fang Yi said: "If there is no special opportunity, or if he suddenly realizes it, then that will be the case for Wang Hongqi! But such an opportunity is almost the same as winning the lottery."
Wei Jin said: "This is not called perseverance, it's called being over the top! It sounds mean, but it is reality! If you don't have the talent to eat this bowl of rice, the harder you work, the more you will die! And you will die more thoroughly, and then you will disappear in this world.
Among all living beings, no one will remember your efforts, nor will
Some people will remember your deeds, and no one will use your deeds to inspire future generations. Because no one has seen your success, your efforts are meaningless to the world! You can't even make a living as a poor person.
A painter is not even qualified to make footnotes!"
When he said this, Wei Jin's face was filled with indifference, and he seemed to be talking to himself at the end. He couldn't help but think about what he would do after graduation? Don't look at the carefree life now, he is really going.
What can you do in society? How can you support your family? Although your family has a little money, you can't rely on your parents to support you all your life. Doing this would be too hard for your parents. Not only do you have to raise your son, but you also
Want to raise grandchildren!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Fang Yi. Now Fang Yi has steadily eaten this bowl of rice. Fifty thousand yuan for a painting is really a lot! Where is Qu Gu? It can also be said that it is served.
It's next to the bowl, but I haven't even seen the bowl yet!
Seeing the disappointment on his friend's face, Fang Yi couldn't help but patted his shoulder: "Okay! Stop feeling sad for others! You are different from him. You have the talent to eat this bowl of rice. Let's hurry up.
Let’s finish our meal and then go look at the furniture!”.
Whether it is Wei Jin or Tao Yong, since they were specially assigned to the same dormitory as Fang Yi by Liu Yuchan, they are both talented enough to eat this bowl of rice! As for how to eat, it will depend on personal opportunities and diligence.
A smile appeared on Wei Jin's face: "Yes! We still have a little talent!" After saying that, he jumped up from the carton and shouted to Mu Jin in the kitchen: "Chef! The meal is ready. No! I'm starving to death!" But I said to myself secretly: I want the world to see my efforts, and I want my efforts to be meaningful.
Seeing the familiar smile return to his friend's face, Fang Yi also stood up, and the two walked towards the kitchen together. Watching Mu Jin cook the noodles, after the noodles were cooked, the three of them stood directly on the counter and started cooking. eat.
After finishing their meal, the three of them got into the car and drove towards Dongji Town.
When I got to the town, I asked Fangfang, and sure enough I found the location. Twenty or thirty meters away, I saw a small shop with a small amount of furniture at the door.
The car stopped on the side of the road, and Fang Yi and the other three walked towards the store.
"Is there anyone there?" Fang Yi stood at the door of the store and called inside.
"Yes! Yes!" As soon as Fang Yi finished his words, he heard the cloth curtain in the room being put up. Wang Hongqi met a man coming out of Wang Hongqi's house carrying a big bowl. When he saw it was Fang Yi, he quickly said: "It's here so soon! I'll put the bowl back first and then show you!"
"No! There's no better place to eat than anything in the world! Boss Zhang, you eat first, and we'll take a look first." Fang Yi smiled and said to Boss Zhang, who was just eating now.
"Okay! You guys take a look first," Boss Zhang said to Fang Yi, "My name is Zhang Youfa, you can just call me Lao Zhang! Call me whatever you like!" After saying that, he smiled honestly at the three of them and turned around. His head went back behind the curtain.
Fang Yi and the other three began to turn around and look at the furniture.
After opening two or three closet doors, Wei Jin opened his mouth and said: "This furniture looks honest. It is much stronger than what I saw in the morning. Look at the wooden corners inside, which are all mortise-and-tenon, and there are two It’s a square hole with a tenon!”
Mu Jin said: "It's strong, but it's a bit old-fashioned like this. The corners of the cabinet are all Western-style corners, and there's also a circle of corners around the top, which doesn't match the style of your studio!" .
After listening to his girlfriend's words, Fang Yi thought for a moment and said, "That's right. Let's wait until he comes out and ask if we can order some cabinets or something! I think the style of the bed looks good! What do you think?" After speaking, he pointed to a large stacked wooden bed not far away and asked.
"Yeah! It's okay now!" Mu Jin looked at it and nodded: "But the head of the bed in the master bedroom needs to be a little higher, and the low shelf at the end of the bed can be removed!".
"Okay! Let's ask the boss when he comes out." Fang Yi nodded and said.
Not two minutes after Fang Yi said this, Zhang Youfa opened the curtain and walked out, walked up to Fang Yi and asked: "What does Boss Fang like?".
"Call me Fang Yi," Fang Yi said quickly, "Can you order a batch of furniture here?"
"We can make a batch of custom orders, but we can't make them if they are too complicated! We don't have the machines in big factories to make small imitations at home, so we really can't make plate flowers. It's too expensive to hire a master, and you might not be happy with it either! ”.
Fang Yi smiled and waved his hand and said: "It's not that complicated, it's all straight up and down." After that, he said to Zhang Youfa: "Do you have any paper? I'll draw it for you!".
"Yes! Yes! I'll get it for you!" Zhang Youfa smiled and turned around and entered the house.
After taking the paper and pen, Fang Yi started to draw directly on the paper. While drawing, he said: "Everything should be straight up and down. Keep it simple and remove the lines on the furniture!".
Zhang Youfa watched Fang Yi draw a cabinet and a bed, and said: "This is no problem!". Looking at what Fang Yi drew, it was really easy! Just install the straight boards. For someone who has been doing carpentry for decades, It was not difficult at all for Zhang Youfa. Zhang Youfa immediately agreed. (To be continued.)
