Chapter 242 Flood washed away the Dragon King Temple
"That's fine! I've seen your illustrations, they're very good. Those people's descriptions based on words are definitely not as intuitive as illustrations. People with spare money will still buy it, they don't mind that little bit of money. We can make two editions in the future, just like this, to satisfy different groups of people."
Wen Ruyu nodded repeatedly, "Junior brother is still smart."
Jiang Youzhen couldn't help but glance at Wen Ruyu. Wasn't this person very noble before? It seems that money is really a good thing. Everyone has to bow down for a few pieces of silver!
Huang Xue Ning came in noisily, and when he saw both of them were there, he immediately came over.
"How is it? Does Junior Brother have any suggestions?" Huang Xue Ning asked Jiang Youzhen.
"Brother Huang's family is in business, so he naturally has more experience than us. Let's do as you and Brother Wen have planned! I have a private matter to ask you, Brother."
"What's the matter? Just tell me!" Huang Xue Ning said, patting his chest.
"I wonder if Senior Brother Huang knows He Shulin? He's from Hejia Village."
"Ah?" Huang Xue Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then you asked the wrong person. I am not familiar with him, but Senior Brother Wen is familiar with him!"
"Why do you say that? Could it be that he and Senior Brother Wen are also good friends?" Jiang Youzhen was a little surprised.
"He Shulin is my cousin. His biological mother is my mother's cousin."
Wen Ruyu was also very surprised, and then she remembered that her aunt had come to her house last time and said that Shulin had already arranged a marriage. But later, she was busy and didn't have time to ask in detail. Could this family be the Jiang family?
Jiang Youzhen was embarrassed. He was actually a cousin of Wen Ruyu. Didn't the flood wash away the Dragon King Temple? Didn't the family members no longer recognize each other? How could she ask about their cousins?
Even if there is something wrong, Wen Ruyu will definitely help to conceal it! After all, they are relatives, how can I help the right instead of the relatives?
"I heard from my aunt before that Shulin has arranged a marriage, but I didn't have the time to ask in detail. Could it be the Jiang family?" Wen Ruyu simply asked directly.
"Ah? Then you two are relatives, right?" Huang Xue Ning clapped his hands, "What a coincidence!"
Huang Xue Ning was very happy and felt like he and Jiang Youzhen were a family.
"What a coincidence! What a coincidence! We are not only classmates, but also relatives!" Huang Xue Ning said repeatedly.
We? Jiang Youzhen was speechless. He called us now. What does it have to do with Huang Xue Ning?
"Junior brother, do you want to know about Shu Lin's character?" He glanced at Jiang Youzhen who had fallen silent. "In fact, what you hear is not as good as what you see. Junior brother, why don't you get to know him yourself? How he treats people, his character and knowledge are all these things that you can't just listen to."
Jiang Youzhen's heart moved, "Senior Brother Wen is willing to introduce me? But I can't reveal my identity for the time being."
"Marriage is a big deal, isn't it? Junior brother, you are also planning for your sister. Although I am not a gentleman, I am definitely not a gossiper. Naturally, I will not tell you my identity, so you can observe it yourself."
"Then I'll leave it to you, Senior Brother. Let's choose tomorrow! I'll treat the three of you to a meal at Hongyun Restaurant."
Zhen believed that Wen Ruyu was not someone who would tell someone secretly. Since she had promised, there was no need for him to start a conspiracy theory.
"That's great, I'll have a free meal and drinks tomorrow." Huang Xue Ning said happily.
Time passed by quickly. Jiang Youzhen copied annotations for a whole day and was about to finish copying all the Four Books.
I touched the back of my neck and realized that it still felt a little uncomfortable after bowing my head for a long time.
"Jiang Youzhen! Someone is looking for you outside." The old man at the door walked in and waved at Jiang Youzhen.
When Jiang Youzhen came out of the yard, he found that it was Zhou Hai, but the second prince did not come this time.
"The Second Master ordered me to deliver the famous painting you requested. Please take a look at it."
Jiang Youzhen took it and opened the scroll. It was a landscape painting in ink, very artistic. Although Jiang Youzhen didn't understand this kind of freehand painting, he could still tell the good from the bad.
Looking at the signature below, Jiang Youzhen murmured, "Mr. Chunshan?"
I don’t know him! He is not a familiar ancient celebrity, but there are some differences between the history in the book and the real history. Maybe he is a celebrity!
"Mr. Chunshan is a contemporary master painter and is known as a painting maniac. This painting was made during his early years of traveling. He is now old and rarely paints."
Zhou Hai just wanted to remind Jiang Youzhen that the 100 taels of silver was not enough to buy the painting. His Highness was also generous. He sold the 500 taels of silver item to Jiang Youzhen for only 100 taels. How was this different from giving it as a gift?
"Ah? Isn't that cheap?" Although he is a contemporary painter, he is old and doesn't paint much now. In the future, this painting will definitely be valuable and worth collecting.
It’s good that you know! Zhou Hai felt much better.
"I don't know about that. I am just completing the task assigned by the Second Master. Since you have confirmed that it is correct, I will not accompany you any longer." Zhou Hai said as he mounted his horse, turned around and rode away.
"Ah, bah, bah, bah!" When the horse left, it stirred up dust on the roadside, which fell into Jiang Youzhen's mouth.
"Who is that? He must have done it on purpose." Jiang Youzhen raised his fist in anger. Without status, one cannot ride a horse in the market. It seems that Zhou Hai's rank is not low, otherwise he would not be so ostentatious.
Feeling very frustrated, Jiang Youzhen returned to the yard and went straight to the teacher's study.
Jiang Youzhen was a little reluctant to give away such a valuable item. But people with inferior items would not appreciate it, so it was better to be generous.
"Master! This is a painting I found. It is because I have troubled you with my affairs. This painting is my apology."
Anyway, it has been given to the Master, so how he gives it and what he gives is up to the Master himself.
"There is no need to do this!" The teacher frowned. This was not his original intention.
"It's just a painting, and it was bought by a student some time ago. The student doesn't know how to appreciate it, and just heard people say it was good. It would be better to give it to someone who knows how to appreciate it, so as not to disgrace the painting."
Mr. Jiang immediately became interested, and his heart felt as if it was being scratched by a cat's claws. He wanted to see what the painting looked like.
"School is over, I'll take my leave first!" Jiang Youzhen turned around and left the study without waiting for the teacher to speak.
If he didn't leave, it would probably take a lot of time. Anyway, the painting had been delivered, and it was up to the Master to decide how to deal with it. The Master also had to repay the favor.
After Jiang Youzhen left, Master Jiang quickly opened the scroll. When he saw the landscape painting, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. However, when he saw the signature below, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Mr. Haruyama?"
The carriage was swaying, and Qiu Zhong was on guard all the way. He was attacked here yesterday, so he had to be careful? Chen Yi felt bad about being punished when he returned, and he didn't want to follow in Chen Yi's footsteps.
But the journey was smooth and I arrived home safely.
"Please be alert at night, they can't hold back, they might take action late at night in the next two days."
When they returned to the Jiang family, Jiang Youzhen was about to go back to the house when Qiu Zhong reminded him.
