Chapter 108 The Yan Family of Lacquerware

Through the bead curtains woven by rice beads is the lounge, where there are mahogany tables, chairs and cabinets. The curtains of the large windows are light yellow, which dilutes the heavy oppression of mahogany.

There is an old laptop on the table, playing the classic cartoons of Porcelain Kingdom.

Lin Baike glanced at You Xingyue secretly: I didn't expect the little boss to be quite childlike.

The windows are open in the lounge, and the soft aroma from the outside is even weaker through a bead curtain, filling the entire space seemingly without a trace.

There was still a teapot on the small stove by the table.

You Xingyue gestured: "The place is relatively small, please sit where you want."

Lin Baike sat down with a teacup in his hand, and looked at this elegant small lounge.

The atmosphere in the lounge was different from that of the outside room, the sense of mystery was weakened, and it was much warmer, which made Lin Baike couldn't help relaxing.

You Xing walked to the cabinet and took out three lacquerware.

Ruyi Tangzhi is still young, so she stays in the shop and slowly nurtures Qi Ling.You Xing was more afraid that people outside would frighten them, so he kept them in the lounge for the past few days, taking them out for a walk from time to time to get used to the human breath.

In addition to Ruyi and Tangzhi, there is also a plum blossom holding box made of rhinoceros.The latter has no spirit, and is Yan Qizhi's work.Because You Xing was more worried that Ruyi Tangzhi suddenly left Yan Qizhi and couldn't get used to it, so he put the plum blossom holding box next to his siblings.

It is convenient for two little gadgets to see things and think about things... well, think about things.

When she is free, she will play cartoons for Ruyi Tangzhi, and sometimes if she doesn’t stay with customers, if she doesn’t go out to play, she will hold two small gadgets and watch them together.

When it was taken out of the lacquerware, Lin Baike's eyeballs seemed to be glued to the lacquer box with lacquer glue.

Ruyi hugged her younger sister and bravely met Lin Baike's gaze.

Brother, brother said that they will get married in the future, so they need to be more lively.

Lin Baike couldn't control it anymore, and stretched out his hand to Ruyi: "It turned out to be Baibao inlay and rhinoceros lacquer..."

You Xingyue coughed lightly: "I can't use Baibaoembed."

The two spirits are mentally young and have been isolated from the world for a long time. You Xingyue hopes that their communication with people will be gradual so as not to scare them.

Lin Baike stretched out his left hand, grabbed his right wrist, and pulled it left and right to the limit, his eyes still glued to Ruyi, muttered: "Such a small jewelry box can be inlaid with such a detailed picture of shepherds. The Ruyi pattern on all sides is Hetian. Jade and gold filigree inlaid with turquoise, right? This... this is a wonderful workmanship!"

Baibao inlay itself is an extremely rich inlaying process. It is difficult to decorate lacquer boxes with expensive gemstones, how to be gorgeous and not vulgar, so majestic and extravagant.

And this Hundred Treasures Inlaid Lacquer Box is obviously small and cute, but it exudes extravagance in its exquisiteness, both in terms of skill and aesthetics, it has reached the peak.

No wonder the little boss is reluctant to put it out!Who is not confused?Lin Baike asked himself that if there was such an exquisite lacquer box inlaid with hundreds of treasures, let alone exhibiting it outside, he would free up a whole room to collect it on the spot!

Lin Baike was lying on the table, trying to appreciate the Ruyi pattern lacquer box from every angle.Then he watched You Xingyue open the lacquer box with his own eyes. Lin Baike thought that You Xingyue wanted to show him the inner craftsmanship, but unexpectedly, You Xingyue took out another Baibao inlay from the lacquer box!

Lin Baike's eyes widened, and the words of praise in his mouth stopped abruptly. His eyes moved with the movement of Tang Zhi. After a long time, he choked out a sentence: "Boss, are you really not selling?"

Who would have thought that there was a smaller Baibao inlaid in the Ruyi pattern lacquer box?It's like carving a boat with a peach core, which is as amazing as it is!

Two lacquer boxes, one big and one small, are put together, just like a pair of brothers and sisters.

The two little spirits were close together in a place where humans could not see, sticking to You Xingyue's arm, You Xingyue couldn't help but smile.Among the Qi spirits he has seen, the two Ruyi Tangzhi are the most shy.

Ruyi whispered: "Are you afraid, come behind brother!"

Tang Zhi replied softly: "He likes us, I'm not afraid."

The two siblings quietly observed Lin Baike.

The little Qiling who has always been cherished by her brother is so sensitive to love.

"Is Baibao inlaid for sale?" You Xingyue touched Ruyi and Tangzhi reassuringly, and said with a smile, "They are still young."

Lin Baike scratched his heart and liver greedily, and after a while, he choked up and said, "You can only see but not own, what kind of human suffering is this. I have never been so wronged when I kneel on the washboard at home."

You Xingyue: "... Can this be said?"

Lin Baike: "Why can't you say it? If you don't say it, do you know how wronged I am?!"

Tang Zhi said softly: "Boss, brother, he is a good man."

Ruyi hugged her younger sister: "Well, we will find a good family in the future!"

You Xingyue's eyes were soft, and he glanced at Lin Baike: "Mr. Lin, do you only like antique lacquerware or all lacquerware?"

Lin Baike got off his chair, looked at Tang Zhi from the side, and said, "Of course I like them all! To be honest, I held a private lacquerware exhibition before, and I also collected some modern lacquerware works."

You Xingyue: "That's really great."

Lin Baike didn't understand, so he said, "What's so good? Don't you sell these two treasure inlays? Hey, do you sell this rhinoceros lacquerware? It's also a first-class good thing."

Just kidding, this rhinoceros skin plum blossom holding box is only slightly inferior in front of the two hundred treasure inlays. If it is placed elsewhere, it can be called the treasure of the town hall!

The rhinoceros skin plum blossom holding box was a tribute that was to be offered in those days. It was made by Yan Qizhi himself. It is relatively old. At that time, Yan Qizhi's technology was still immature, but it was still a treasure.

You Xingyue showed Lin Baike's most sincere smile since he met him: "I know the master who made this plum blossom holding box, do you want to meet him? Maybe he has some works that Mr. Lin is interested in , are at such a level, it is enough to buy home as a family heirloom."

While Lin Baike was excited, he felt as if he had fallen into some kind of trap: "Of course I want to see you! The one who can make this level of lacquerware is a master of the world. How could I not want to see him?"

The more You Xing smiles, the more obvious it is.

After Yan Qizhi and Mr. Yan returned home, they never sent him a message.Maybe it's because I'm busy adapting to this society, or maybe it's because I'm not feeling well.

If you are fully busy, it is impossible to be so busy that you don’t even send a message. After all, if you are in a good mood, you will be energetic when you are busy.There is a high probability that it is very unpleasant, and I don't want him to worry, so I haven't sent any news for a long time.

Although the General Administration will definitely provide help, some difficulties cannot be resolved by persuasion.

Yan Fubai and Yan Qizhi hope to continue to promote lacquerware. This joint exhibition is actually a good opportunity, and Lin Baike, as a lacquerware lover and a well-known lacquerware collector in the city, can also help Mr. Yan regain his reputation.

Ultra-thin turned the camera silently: Boss, have you planned this for a long time?

Lin Baike said: "When will Master be free? Can we meet today?"

You Xingyue picked up the phone and said: "I can send a message first to ask, Mr. Yan is in Yingjiang City, but it's a bit far away, a few hours' drive."

Lin Baike's voice raised uncontrollably: "Master Yan? The Yan family of lacquerware? Hasn't their family stopped making lacquerware a long time ago?"

Anyone who collects lacquerware, who doesn't know the Yan family?That is a family of lacquerware that is well-known in history books. At its most glorious time, there were plaques and official positions bestowed by the emperor, but it gradually declined. Until the past few decades, the reputation of the Yan family of lacquerware has hardly been heard.

Lin Baike held You Xingyue's hand tightly: "Please contact me! I can wait!"

You Xingyue said softly: "I'll do my best. The old man is getting old and living with his family. If we can make an appointment, we may have to go there by ourselves."

Lin Baike nodded again and again: "It should be. The old man is old, so I, a junior, should be the one to visit."

Ultra-thin emotion: Look at the boss's mouth, obviously there is no lie, but he insists on creating a semi-reclusive artist image for Mr. Yan who is in trouble, and he also pulls up the style.

Awesome, boss.

Black belly, boss!

It is recommended that you divide your mind into two back and forth.

You Xingyue clicked on the address book, found the account with the note of "Heirloom", and dialed the number.

……

The situation of Yan Qizhi and Yan Fubai is indeed not very good, after all, they are dependent on others.

Although the house is owned by the elder brother Yan Jianan, Yan Jianan's youngest son who is not married also lives at home. On weekends, the eldest son's family will bring their children back, making the house even more crowded.

There is not enough room to live, let alone a place to work.Most of the lacquerware in hand was made by Yan Fubai, which was beyond the scope of antiques, and there was no way to sell them.

Yan Youwen and Yan Youwu didn't welcome this uncle. Although they looked decent, they closed the door behind their backs, always muttering.

However, the house is small and there are not many private places, some words inevitably reached Yan Fubai's ears.

Yan Qizhi heard more, and was so angry that he wanted to pretend to be the ancestor of the Yan family to threaten Yan Youwen and Yan Youwu at night, but Yan Fubai stopped him.

Yan Fubai sat in the park of the community, and said slowly: "Forget it, after all, I'm renting at the elder brother's house. It's normal for people who are civil and military to be unhappy."

Yan Qizhi was furious: "What right do they have to be unhappy?! When we were still at home, [-] to [-]% of the lacquerware sold were made by the two of us! Yan Jianan's house was given to Yan Youwen. Isn’t the house you bought all the money you saved back then?”

Yan Qizhi stayed for a few days and almost figured out what happened in the past 20 years.

In addition to Yan Jian'an, Yan Fubai's elder brother, he also has an older sister who was married more than 50 years ago and received no property except a dowry.

As soon as Yan Fubai disappeared, the remaining family property was sold, and the workers and relatives were repatriated. Didn't they all fall into Yan Jianan's pocket?Yan Fubai didn't get any money, so it's only natural to live at home now!

Wrapped in a jacket, Yan Fubai stared at the swaying tree shadows for a while, "Why don't I send you to Buliugu? Where you are, you can still reunite with Ruyi and Lianzhi."

Yan Qizhi felt like he was going to explode: "Should I stay with you or not? What should you do?! I watched you grow up, and I will watch you go! I can take care of you when you die, so worry about yourself !"

It’s not that he never thought of seeking help from the General Administration of Inhuman Planning and No Customers, but Yan Fubai took a pill and got some compensation. He is a simple and honest person, and he will never take advantage of it. He feels that he has already compensated too much. Yes, I don't want to trouble others.

Yan Fubai smiled embarrassingly: "I'm old, half of the loess is buried, I don't care anymore. It's a pity that this craft... I don't have a reputation, and I can't recruit apprentices. Alas... Fortunately, I still have you."

Yan Qizhi was silent for a while, then urged: "It's windy outside, go back and sit down."

Under the conditioning of the elixir, Yan Fubai became stronger day by day, looking ten years younger than his actual age, Yan Fubai walked back holding Yan Qizhi's body.

When he got home, Yan Jianan went out to play chess.Only Yan Youwen and Yan Youwu were watching TV in the living room. Taking advantage of Yan Fubai's absence, Yan Youwu complained to his brother that there were too many people in the house, which was crowded and troublesome.

When Yan Fubai pushed the door and came in, the complaints stopped abruptly, Yan Youwen forced a forced smile at Yan Fubai, while Yan Youwu lowered his head and remained silent.

Yan Qizhi was mad with anger: "I..."

Yan Youwen pointed to the room: "Uncle, your phone seems to be ringing, is someone calling you?"

Yan Fu Bai said softly: "I'll go and have a look."

As he spoke, he walked into the room with strides and closed the door so that the two brothers Yan Youwen could continue talking.

Yan Youwu suppressed his voice: "Look at him! He closed the door when he made a phone call, lest we eavesdrop. How much money does he have? He lives in our house and guards against us! Why doesn't he move out if he has money?"

Yan Youwen said irritably: "Okay! Stop talking nonsense."

What he was worried about was this house. What if his father got confused and gave it to his uncle?

In the bedroom, Yan Fubai connected to the phone, and the gentle voice of the boss who didn't leave customers came from the other end: "Hello, is this Grandpa Yan? I'm Xiaoyou who doesn't leave customers. I called you suddenly, did I disturb you? ?”

Yan Fubai didn't understand why, and exchanged a glance with Yan Qizhi.

The eyes of the two technically minded craftsmen were blank, Yan Fubai said: "No disturbing, I'm idle."

"It's like this. I have a friend who is a lacquerware collector. I saw the rhinoceros skin plum blossom holding box you gave me. I like it very much, so I really want to meet you. If you are free, we will come here now, okay?"

Some people are willing to collect lacquerware!

Yan Fubai was a little excited, and reported the address: "When I'm free, I'll be right here..."

After hanging up the phone, both Yan Fubai and Yan Qizhi were in a state of excitement.

Yan Fubai took out all the lacquerware he brought back and placed them in the bedroom.

It was not until the meal that Yan Fubai was busy, washed his hands and went out to serve the food.

Yan Jian'an also came back, looking at the smile on his younger brother's face, he couldn't help but said, "I'm very happy today? Why don't you go out to play chess with me this afternoon?"

Yan Fubai smiled and shook his head: "There is a collector coming to see lacquerware in the afternoon, I will take the lacquerware down and wait for them later."

Yan Jianan said in astonishment: "Collector? You are not being cheated, are you?"

Yan Youwen also said: "Nowadays there are a lot of phone scams, especially for the elderly. Uncle, you have to be careful, don't fall for it."

He was really cheated out of money, and his dad can't afford to go in again?

Yan Fubai grabbed the chopsticks, did not argue, but insisted: "It's not a liar, it's a call from my benefactor who saved me."

Yan Youwen turned around and rolled his eyes, Yan Jian'an persuaded him again, seeing that his younger brother really didn't listen, he sighed and didn't continue.

After three o'clock in the afternoon, Yan Youwen and Yan Youwu were still sitting at home, waiting to see what kind of "collector" would come to this kind of community to find a "master".

Yan Fubai didn't care about them, and went downstairs with the box after receiving the message from the boss who didn't stay.

Under the signal of his father, Yan Youwen reluctantly carried the suitcase for Yan Fubai, and they went downstairs together. Now he regretted it: "Why don't you ask someone to come up and sit down."

Yan Fubai insisted, "I said I would go down."

A mess in the home will disturb the interest of the collector.

Yan Youwu also came out, and the family waited downstairs for a while, when a black car drove in.

Inside the car, You Xingyue pointed to Yan Fubai and said, "That is Master Yan."

Lin Baike said with emotion: "You said he is more than 70 years old? You can't tell at all. He is really energetic and has an outstanding temperament. He is worthy of being a master! Yan's family is also very friendly, and they all come down to accompany Master Yan!"

You Xing smiled more, his eyes were not very friendly.

Yan Youwen took a look: "Hey, isn't this the classic model of Ruifeng? A luxury car!"

Rich people can afford to drive a car, which one of their communities is developed?

Under the watchful eyes of Yan's family, the black car drove straight towards them and slowly stopped in front of them.

The car door opened, and Lin Baike rushed out, grabbed Yan Fubai's hands, and shook them vigorously: "Hi, Master Yan! I am Lin Baike, and I have long admired the name of the Yan family of lacquerware! Would you like to sign for me first? "

Yan Youwen was carrying the suitcase, looked at the young man who came down from the back seat in astonishment, and said in disbelief, "Are you...the owner of that famous antique shop?"

You Xingyue had a meeting today, and he deliberately wore a formal shirt and trousers with a thin windbreaker, looking elegant.

He nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Yes. I'm here suddenly, so I'm sorry."

Yan Youwu stared blankly at the black car, then slowly shifted his gaze to Yan Fubai, finally realizing that his vision might not be too far-sighted.
