After buying the paperweight, the middle-aged man said to Yao Ting: "Your humble Yue Lun, I heard that Mr. Yao is a master sculptor. I would like to ask him to engrave a book collection seal. I wonder if I can meet Mr. Yao?"
"This... Please wait a moment!" If it was before, Yao Ting would not hesitate to help Grandpa out of the way, but now, Xia Yan is upstairs, and Grandpa just doesn't need to make a move, so it is appropriate for Xia Yan to engrave this square seal.
"Grandpa, there is a guest downstairs and I want you to engrave a seal." Yao Ting came upstairs and said to Yao Shigu.
"Okay, I just got tickled by Xiao Yan these few days..." Yao Shigu took a sip of tea and suddenly smiled, "Go down and tell him that my school is Yidaoliu, and the head of Yidaoliu happens to be in the shop right now , you can take the initiative to engrave him, but the conditions must be clearly explained to him... "
"The head of the one-knife style?" After listening to Yao Ting, Yue Lun opened his mouth in astonishment. He heard someone mention Yao Shigu's name, so he came here because of his reputation. He didn't expect to hear the "one-knife style" He couldn't get used to the two martial-arts-like nouns, and the head of the sect.
"It's not made up, is it?" the beautiful woman beside him couldn't help but said.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Seeing Yao Ting's complexion suddenly turned bad, Yue Lun quickly reprimanded her.
"Those who don't know are not guilty." Yao Ting's attitude became much colder, "Mr. Yue can think about it. If you agree to the conditions, you can start engraving."
"Your conditions are too much!" the beauty couldn't help but yelled again, "It's fine to ask for top-level materials, Mr. Yue brought Shoushan stones, but even the fees are so high, 300,000 engraved one piece The seal is too exaggerated!"
"Shut up!" Yue Lun's face darkened, and his tone of reprimand became heavier, "Mr. Yao is a famous sculptor in Rongdu. Since he is the head of his school, he must be a top master in the whole country. Let alone 300,000, 500,000 is not expensive!"
After reprimanding the little secretary, he turned his head and asked with a smile: "May I ask the name of this master..."
"Xia Yan, Sanhuoyan." Yao Ting said.
"It turned out to be Master Xia Yan. I wonder if I can meet the master so that I can describe my request to him face to face?" Yue Lun still asked gracefully.
"Of course." Yao Ting said.
"There is no such thing as a master sculptor called Xia Yan in China!" At this time, the beauty cried out again, after a while, she had already searched on her mobile phone.
"Mr. Yue, I checked on the Internet. There is no one named Xia Yan among the well-known domestic carving masters. It must be some incognito expert. This is not a martial arts novel." She shouted.
"Annie, don't talk nonsense!" Yue Lun frowned, but this time his tone was not serious. After all, the secretary had already searched the Internet, and it was not an unfounded accusation. He also wondered in his heart, is this really a scam? It should not be so, Yao Shigu is indeed a sculptor, this is beyond doubt, this kind of person will cherish feathers, and will never make such a clumsy deception.
"You're right, Master Xia did come out recently, and no one knew about him before." Yao Ting said with a smile, not angry about the reasonable question.
"This... incredible!" Yue Lun smiled wryly.
"Who would believe it!" Annie looked disdainful, "If Mr. Yao is willing to make a move, we will definitely pay according to the rules, but a person who has never heard of it charges more than Yao Lao, which is too fake !"
"The choice is in Mr. Yue's hands. If Mr. Yue believes in our Jiguzhai, then I will invite Master Xia out. If you don't believe me, you can go out now!" Yao Ting didn't explain much, still smiling said.
"you… "
"Jiguzhai is famous, so I believe it. It was just a moment of surprise and I lost my composure. Please forgive me!" Yue Lun interrupted the little secretary, and apologized to Yao Ting seriously, and said, "Master Xia, please give me a hand." See!"
Her boss had already made a decision, and Annie was sensible and dared not speak out, but she still didn't care about it in her heart, with disdain and suspicion on her face.
"Master Xia is in the work room, so I can't disturb you for the time being, please wait for Mr. Yue." Yao Ting said.
"It's okay, we'll just wait." Annie wanted to speak again, but Yue Lun waved his hand to stop her and said with a smile.
"Mr. Yue, please wait a moment." After speaking, Yao Ting turned and went upstairs.
Just as her front foot disappeared at the stairs, another person came in with her back foot, it was Jiang Wenchuan. When he came in, he looked around and punched, but he didn't find Yao Ting's figure. With a slight disappointment on his face, he asked Sister Li, "Sister Li, is Xiao Ting in?"
As he spoke, he handed over a box of exquisite candies: "For you."
"Thank you Young Master Jiang!" Sister Li beamed and put the candy under the counter. Of course, she knew why Jiang Wenchuan gave her the gift. At the right time, she didn't mind saying something nice about Jiang Wenchuan in front of Yao Ting.
"Mr. Jiang!" Yue Lun recognized Jiang Wenchuan when he came in, and his face was full of surprises. After Jiang Wenchuan and Sister Li greeted him, he stood up and called out.
Jiang Wenchuan turned around, stared at Yue Lun for a few seconds, and then smiled and said: "So it's Mr. Yue, what a coincidence!"
"What a coincidence!" Yue Lun stepped forward to shake hands with Jiang Wenchuan, and said pleasantly, "Mr. Jiang also came to Taobao?"
"I'm here to find a friend, but if you come across something good, it's okay to buy two. Did Mr. Yue find something good?" Jiang Wenchuan asked.
"I'm here to buy two gifts for others. I don't know much about antiques. I'm an amateur, haha!" Yue Lun laughed.
"Jiguzhai has a lot of treasures, Mr. Yue, don't miss them." Jiang Wenchuan said.
The two sat down, exchanged some pleasantries, and talked about the weather. Yue Lun asked again: "By the way, Mr. Jiang has friends in Jiguzhai. Do you know about Yidaoliu?"
"Of course I know, Mr. Yao is the successor of the Yidao style. He also has a senior brother named Han Yidao, who is so skilled in craftsmanship that his works are hard to come by!" Jiang Wenchuan said.
"Mr. Han Yidao is the master of Yidao Liu?" Yue Lun asked again.
"I don't know, maybe it is." Jiang Wenchuan said.
"Then, does Mr. Jiang know that there is another person named Xia Yan who is also a disciple of Yidao Liu, and he may still be the master?" Yue Lun asked.
"Xia Yan?" Jiang Wenchuan was taken aback, "What do you ask him for?"
"I..." Yue Lun was about to speak when there was a sound of stairs, and Yao Ting came down. Jiang Wenchuan hurriedly stood up and said, "Xiaoting, are you busy today?"
"Mr. Jiang, please call me by my full name!" Yao Ting protested helplessly.
"Uh... okay!" Hearing her bad tone, Jiang Wenchuan didn't dare to insist, and quickly changed his words, "Yao Ting, I bought two concert tickets, the world's top orchestra is performing, do you want to go to listen together tonight?"
With that said, he took out two tickets and waited expectantly for Yao Ting's answer.
"Sorry, I have something to do tonight, let's do it another day." Yao Ting declined, and Jiang Wenchuan immediately showed disappointment.
Yue Lun already understood that the "friend" Jiang Wenchuan mentioned should be this beautiful woman, but it is a pity that others don't seem to regard him as a friend, otherwise they would not call him such an unfamiliar name as Mr. Jiang.
"Mr. Yue, please come upstairs with me, Master Xia is ready." Yao Ting walked towards Yue Lun and said to him.
"What Master Xia?" Jiang Wenchuan was startled, thinking of someone.
