Chapter 234 In the diary, I will definitely give you a strong record
Chapter 234 I will definitely write something down in the diary for you (please give me a monthly ticket recommendation)
Li Ke tried hard to maintain the demeanor of a disciplined scholar and smiled reservedly. "Okay, we'll talk about those things later."
"Cheng is here today because he wants to specially order some paintings. I wonder which of the three masters is here?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. Sure enough, this generous Mr. Cheng was a big spender.
You know, those three masters would charge a lot of money to do it themselves.
However, as an excellent professional businessman, the shopkeeper did not forget the tall and majestic young man standing next to Mr. Cheng.
"Master Cheng's request will not be a problem for our store. I wonder if this Master..."
Cheng Chubi's face had long been as dark as the bottom of a pot that had been fried for three years, and he glared angrily at Li Ke, a bitch.
Li Ke was also helpless. He was a prince after all, and he was also a prince. He couldn't use his real name in such an improper place, right?
"My surname is Li." Cheng Chubi answered directly unhappily.
Li Ke's face immediately turned dark, and he glared over with a faint look. Cheng Chubi stared back without showing any signs of weakness.
Why can’t your last name be Cheng? Why can’t my last name be Li?
"It turns out to be Mr. Li. One look at Mr. Li's beautiful trees and his talent. He must be a talented person with great taste."
Cheng Chubi chuckled. "Well, Mr. Cheng and I are life-and-death friends. His request is my request. Just ask him."
Cheng Chubi deliberately gritted his teeth and squeezed the words life and death out from between his teeth.
The shopkeeper, who nodded and bowed, did not notice the strangeness of the two young men. He walked out of the shop with a smile and led the way.
"Well, I invite you two to come with me...the three masters are not in the shop, but in another house."
#####
Li Ke's face was a little shy, and he explained in a low voice to the unhappy Cheng Chuqing.
"Brother... I can swear to you that it was an unintentional act at that time and it was definitely not intended to target you."
"Do you think, little brother, I can use my real name when I come to a place like this?"
"It makes sense. Then I said my surname is Li, why are you glaring at me? I subconsciously just thought of something wrong with such a surname?"
"Speaking of which, you only told the shopkeeper your last name, not your first name?"
"Haha... Of course, caution is a must. If I reveal even my name and surname, then the shopkeeper is not stupid."
"Brother Xian is indeed as Your Majesty said, and he is as good as a fruit. Brother Yu is so impressed that he falls to the ground."
"Hehehehe...Brother Chu Bi, we two brothers are close friends of life and death. Please don't spread this matter."
"You are happy to spread the word, but I am not happy about it." Cheng Chubi said angrily.
The two of them muttered behind each other, followed the shopkeeper into a small alley, and knocked on the courtyard door.
Then I saw an old man with gray beard and hair, leaning under the big tree, sipping tea to rest his mind.
Hearing the door knocking and seeing the shopkeeper and the two young gentlemen, he curved his lips playfully and stood up.
"This is Master Xu. At least half of the treasures in the old shop are from this man's hand."
"He is best at painting men and women. If you want animals, you have to find..."
"Shut up, it's just him." Cheng Chubi's face turned dark.
What a god-like animal. I am an expert in human medicine, not a master in studying animal behavior.
If it hadn't been for the fact that the shopkeeper with such a bad mouth didn't take any beatings, he might have shot him with all his heart just now.
Sigh... I never expected that for the development of Datang's medical career, I would need to come to such an unorthodox place.
Well, it's all to blame on a certain bad prince. Just wait, I will definitely write down a lot of things for you in my diary.
Master Xu looks very sanctimonious and has an air of immortality.
This magnanimity, this style, this means that he is a master in a certain industry, which can definitely make people believe him.
After hearing the shopkeeper whispering in his ear, Master Xu stroked his beard and smiled, looking at the two brocade robes and jade belts.
The extraordinary young master handed over his hand as a gift. "The two young masters are able to come here. It seems that the Fang family is striving for excellence."
"I don't know, have you ever appreciated old paintings?"
Upon hearing Master Xu's words, Cheng Ke, the crooked prince, immediately raised his eyebrows and began to show off his profound experience.
"It's natural. Master Xu's Moon Night Tower Boat Atlas is definitely a personal masterpiece. It's really, well... very good."
Li Chubi glanced at this guy with disdain and didn't bother to say anything more. Anyway, his purpose was very clear, which was to get serious.
"Oh..." Master Xu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at Mr. Cheng with admiration. "It seems that Mr. Cheng really has a unique vision."
"Among Lao Chan's paintings in recent years, the one I am most satisfied with is that set of albums."
When Cheng Ke was praised by Master Xu, he immediately got excited.
"Master Xu's brushwork is sophisticated and he depicts the characters' expressions with precision. He is truly the best in Chang'an..."
Li Chubi rolled his eyes as he watched these two crooked art circle people, old and young, getting more and more playful as they chatted.
Cheng Ke was even introduced as a confidant by Master Xu, and was no longer called Young Master, but was now called Cheng Xiaoyou.
Li Chubi finally lost his composure and darkened his face. "Friend Cheng, it's getting late now. Shouldn't you explain the purpose of our visit to Master Xu?"
"Ah, come on, look at my brain. I fell in love with you at first sight, Master, and almost forgot about the real thing."
"Haha, I am the same old man. It is a blessing to be able to make friends with my little friend." Master Xu straightened his beard and said with high spirits.
"I don't know what kind of picture album my little friend needs me to draw. Just ask."
"Thank you, Master Xu. Actually, what we need is a boy, a girl and a child..."
Master Xu's face was a little stiff, but it suddenly softened and he smiled confidently. "Of course I can draw this too."
Li Chubi reluctantly dragged Cheng Ke aside who was talking nonsense.
"No, no, no, Master, you misunderstood. What we need are images of three single people."
"For example, him." Li Chubi pulled back his hand, but Cheng Ke immediately stepped aside.
Li Chubi glared at this delinquent prince who was unwilling to devote himself to the cause of medicine, and raised his fingers at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took two steps forward with a confused look on his face, and was treated as a random tool by the strange and powerful man Li Chubi.
"We need his front, his sides, and his back. In addition, there is also the lower part, which is also best painted more accurately."
"???" Master Xu's beard-twisting hand froze in mid-air, and he looked at the tall and heroic Mr. Li with a confused face.
"Single? If you are alone, although it is not difficult, it seems... that's all. I dare to ask Mr. Li, what position is required?"
