The Philosopher's Dandy Dream

Chapter 94 Selling Paintings

Liu Duxing followed Master Luo to the meeting place, where someone was already waiting.

Seeing that Prefect Luo had arrived, the man hurried up to meet him, his face flushed red.

"Lord Luo?"

"En!" Prefect Luo sat down on the chair in the hall after humming, and winked at Liu Du, "Sit down!"

After Liu Duxing took his seat, Prefect Luo picked up his teacup and took a sip, "Master Sun, this is my son, Luo Ji!"

"Ah? It turned out to be the young master! You can't see Mount Tai! This is the first time we meet..." Shopkeeper Sun walked towards Liu Duxing's seat as he spoke, and began to take out the silver ticket from his cuff, "It's just a wish, don't take it mind."

"No way, no way!" Liu Duxing pushed Shopkeeper Sun's hand and said with a smile, "Treasurer Sun is a rare visitor to the house, so... Daddy is afraid..."

"Oh! That's right, shopkeeper Sun is a rare guest in the house, and this money can't be used!" Taishou Luo followed Liu Duxing's tone, but his face was full of arrogance.

"Ah, my lord, my little one, my little one is...so loyal to my lord..." Shopkeeper Sun's anxiety was beyond words.

"Hehe!" Prefect Luo put the cup heavily on the table with a smirk, "you can eat more, but you can't talk nonsense! My family is serious and clean! They are loyal to me ? That should be the home of heaven!"

"Yes, yes, yes! What your lord said is right!" Shopkeeper Sun said yes repeatedly, with a headache.

Glancing at Shopkeeper Sun's posture, he guessed that the heat was almost ready, and Governor Luo raised his teacup again, "However, this Yanzhou is an important place for the country...My lord..."

"Your Excellency loves the people like a son! Do things for the heavens! Of course you should..." Shopkeeper Sun flattered him with a pale face.

"What should we do?" Prefect Luo's expression turned pale.

"You should accept the filial piety of villains!" Shopkeeper Sun quickly took out a sum of money from his pocket.

"What is the money for?"

"The villain heard that the master's painting is amazing, and I want to ask for a calligraphy!"

calligraphy?Liu Duxing frowned. Wasn't the surname Luo Mo accepting bribes in the name of selling calligraphy and painting?Look at the appearance of that surnamed Luo who is not doing his job for a day, he doesn't look like a person with a strange picture.

Unexpectedly, Prefect Luo didn't intend to move away, but instead called out the door, "Luo Cai!"

"Hey! Master!"

"Pen and ink wait!"

"Yes!"

……

After a while, Liu Duxing was a little dumbfounded. The servant of Luofu was really efficient in handling affairs, but in the blink of an eye, he had prepared all the desk, pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Shopkeeper Sun stood beside the book case in a very sensible manner, and Governor Luo lived up to expectations, and stood up neatly.

Liu Duxing stared at Prefect Luo intently, and saw that when he came to the case, he picked up the pen, and there was a sudden momentum, and then he swiped the pen, regardless of the rope and ink, faintly detached from the six worlds.

When a painting is finished, it is not enough time for a stick of incense.

At that time, Prefect Luo had a Confucian demeanor, which made people unable to turn their eyes away.

But shopkeeper Sun didn't have time to look at these.

Shopkeeper Sun saw that Prefect Luo had stopped writing, so he couldn't wait to compliment Prefect Luo a few words.

Then he couldn't help shouting repeatedly, "Good painting! Good painting! Good painting!"

At the end, shopkeeper Sun smiled happily, staring at the painting, and circled around the table a few times, reluctant to accept it.

Liu Duxing was secretly amazed that this prefect Luo still has such a unique skill, and then think about the style of prefect Luo's painting just now.

Liu Duxing was speechless.

As for Prefect Luo, after finishing the painting, he stopped looking at the shopkeeper Sun's face, and just said, "The money goes to the cashier."

Then he took Liu Duxing and left the meeting place.

……

Walking on the path dotted with some spring flowers, Prefect Luo asked Liu Duxing with a smile, "Can my son gain something?"

"Yes! This housekeeping ability has increased by a few percent." Liu Duxing originally wanted to talk about making money, but thinking about his current status, he changed to a housekeeper.

Listening to Liu Duxing's words, Governor Luo was very satisfied.

"Well! It's good if you have progress! If you don't have progress! Hehe, I won't take you with me, Daddy!"

Luo Taishou hid words in his words, which made Liu Duxing move his mind.

"Please Daddy teach me!"

"Teach you? What can you see from just now?"

"The way?" Liu Duxing pondered for a moment. Just now, it was Luo who slapped Shopkeeper Sun sideways and asked for bribes. The later shopkeeper contributed money and bought a painting surnamed Luo... What a bunch of moths... But, asking him about the way at this moment, Liu Duxing rolled his eyes, "An official should act for the Tian Family."

"What else?" Prefect Luo smirked a few times, "Hehehe. Boy, you are still far behind!"

Hearing that 'my son' became a 'boy', Liu Duxing knew that he didn't speak to Governor Luo's heart, but what did Governor Luo wait for him to say?

Liu Duxing was a little confused.

"Aren't I still painting, my lord?" Prefect Luo felt a little disgusted by Liu Duxing's lack of understanding.

"Painting?" Liu Duxing couldn't keep up, so it's natural to paint when selling paintings, right?

Looking at Liu Duxing's confused look.Prefect Luo clicked on him again, "Why did the surnamed Sun buy my painting?"

"This..." Liu Duxing couldn't answer, saying it was for the sake of power is really vulgar.

Seeing what Liu Duxing meant, but Governor Luo insisted on asking Liu Duxing to speak, "Say it bluntly, it's fine."

"This..." Liu Duxing opened his mouth, "I'm afraid he wants to curry favor with father..."

"Well, why do you want to curry favor with me?"

"I'm afraid I want to rely on my father's official position."

"Then why buy paintings?" The question came back again.

"This..." Liu Duxing knew that the prefect Luo was asking why he wanted to bribe him by buying paintings, but there are many reasons for buying paintings. It may be that the purchase of paintings is relatively hidden, or it may be that Luo likes to be bought by others. painting, or maybe...

Liu Duxing felt that this was an unproblematic answer, so he had to shut up and wait for the surname Luo to say it himself.

Seeing Liu Duxing's silence, Governor Luo felt a little proud again, "Because my lord, my calligraphy and painting are unique in Yanzhou City."

"A must?"

"That's right! When I was young, I studied under famous masters, and then I became a self-contained individual. The price of my paintings is not low."

"That?"

"Why do you still want to be an official? It is to increase your social status. How much is the painting price of a poor scholar? How much is the painting price of a feudal official? Don't underestimate a Yanzhou prefect. In comparison."

"..."

"Power is important, but ability is also important, kid!"

"Ok?"

"You said that my painting skills are superb, but someone can slander and ridicule me for selling paintings? Such a bribe..." Prefect Luo gave Liu Duxing a meaningful look, "Study hard!"

"Then why is it still like this, selling the paintings directly..." Liu Duxing didn't understand why the prefect Luo had to work so hard to earn money for an official position since the price of the paintings was not low.

"Hehe, how many people in the world like your paintings? How about using your power to forcefully sell them..." Luo Taishou continued to walk forward.

"Then this matter..." Liu Duxing was still a little uneasy. Although his surname Luo meant that his paintings were worth that price, but shouldn't he help others if he took money from others? This is obviously damaging the foundation of the country... …

"I just agreed to help shopkeeper Sun solve a case." Prefect Luo waved his hands indifferently, and he would not do anything too outrageous, after all, there is a general in charge here, and he has to keep the black yarn on his head.

"case?"

"The man surnamed Sun married a young lady for his son, who would have thought that the lady died shortly after marrying, and the little lady's family property is quite rich..."

"Take money?"

"No! Take your life."

"Death?" Liu Duxing was taken aback. Is this trying to disregard human life?

"The little lady's parents love their daughter very much, how can they bear to let her die inexplicably, they hope that the son surnamed Sun will pay for his life." Prefect Luo's voice was somewhat mocking.

"Then, what should I do?"

"Hehehe!" Prefect Luo laughed a few times, "The little lady's father came to buy a painting yesterday..."
