However, the furniture in the central hall is ready for use.

Zhang Junping asked Scarface to clean up the courtyard yesterday, and the tea sets and tea leaves were also prepared.

When Zhang Junping rushed to the Dashilar Courtyard, Scarface had already arrived and lit the small boiler.

This small boiler is a rustic heater that Zhang Junping had someone modify.

The boiler is a modified one of the larger tea boilers in the factory.

Weld two water inlet and outlet pipes on the tea stove and connect them to each room.

For the sake of appearance, all pipes and radiators have been concealed.

You can't tell if you don't look carefully.

When Zhang Junping and others arrived, they could already feel the warmth in the main room.

Li Wenjuan and Xia Guoxiang have not arrived yet.

Zhang Junping accompanied Wu Xinping to drink tea and chat in the main room.

"Master, I wanted to remind you when I was in the first year of junior high school, but in front of so many senior brothers and sisters, I couldn't refute what you said." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

Just now, Zhou Yuzhen complained to Zhang Junping on the road that during the past few days of the Chinese New Year, there had been no interruptions at home, and a large number of people came to the house every day to look for Wu Xinping.

It would be fine if they just wanted to pay New Year's greetings, but everyone came and couldn't leave, so they had to stay and drink.

At the wine table, after two glasses of wine, the topic immediately turned to the world tour exhibition.

The implication behind the words is that the world tour exhibition of art works, if it is not for him, then we will break off our friendship in the future.

Zhou Yuzhen has been responsible for cooking and serving Wu Xinping these days.

Wu Xinping's drinking capacity, one glass is just right, two glasses is just too much.

Of course I get drunk every day.

Wu Xinping stroked his beard and said with a smile: "These guys are really annoying.

But, there is no way!

In order to complete the task you entrusted to Master, this is the only way."

Zhang Junping was stunned, what do you mean?

What does it mean to complete the task assigned to him?

"These old guys, if you want to collect their works that are at the bottom of the box, it's not that easy.

Their works are worth thousands of dollars per square foot when sold internationally.

Paint shops only give them a few yuan for a painting, which is barely enough to cover the cost of production.

You said they would be happy to sell to a painting shop?

Over the years, they have indeed sold a lot of calligraphy and paintings to art shops, but it was all for reputation and to obtain certain resources.

Therefore, if you want to collect the works they have hoarded, you cannot play according to normal routines.

Artists are also human beings, and as long as they are human beings, they cannot escape fame and wealth." Wu Xinping stroked his beard and smiled like an old fox.

After saying this, Zhang Junping immediately understood.

On the first day of junior high school, saying those words in front of all the disciples was digging a hole.

Waiting for the artists to jump in.

This is a conspiracy.

I show you the chariot and horses, tell you there is a pit ahead, and ask you if you want to jump.

One hundred artists are qualified to participate in the world tour exhibition, but I only have twenty places.

We all have a good relationship, but who should I give it to and who should I not give it to?

Our art shop can't be busy in vain, right? We can't show your previous works, right?

If you want to go, please send over your latest works first.

Whoever goes there will depend on who has more works.

World touring exhibition, selling while on display. For an artist as big as you, with more than ten or twenty works, you still have the nerve to occupy a quota.

Maybe, one place in Xiangjiang will be sold out.

Don't mention participating in the touring exhibition to me if you haven't given Bai Shi a pair of works.

As for the works that were sold to art shops in the past?

Can your previous works represent your current level?

"Master, you are still cunning!" Zhang Junping smiled and gave Wu Xinping a thumbs up.

"You brat! Have you ever said that about your master?

I'm so cunning, isn't it all because of you?

Arranging tasks for Master is simply an unfilial person!" Wu Xinping scolded with a smile.

"Master, thank you for your support!" Zhang Junping said sincerely.

"I didn't care. After drinking two glasses of wine, I was drunk. I didn't know what they were saying.

It's just that I have worked hard for you, my wife, these days." Wu Xinping looked at Zhou Yuzhen with an apologetic face.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master! I will definitely be filial to Master.

Master, I have brewed some medicinal wine myself, which is good for your health. I will take it home to you later.

There are two kinds, one is for you to drink, and the other is for the mistress to drink.

If the master's wife drinks my medicinal wine, she is guaranteed to become twenty years younger.

From now on, if you stand next to Xinxin, people who don’t know you will definitely think they are sisters." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Is the medicinal wine you mentioned so magical?" Wu Xinping asked with great interest.

"You kid, you know how to talk nonsense." Zhou Yu said with an angry smile.

"It's necessary. You will know how effective my medicinal wine is after you drink it.

Adhere to a cup of medicated wine every day to ensure that you regain the vitality of your youth." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

At this time, Scarface came in and reported: "Master Zhang, Sister Tian is here with the child."

"oh!"

Zhang Junping did not expect that the first person to arrive was Tian Shumei.

Zhang Junping, Wu Xinping, and Zhou Yuzhen said hello and took Qiu Wenyan out to greet them.

"Hey! Uncle Liu, Mrs. Zhou, you are here too!" Zhang Junping stood in the courtyard of the central courtyard and said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law Zhou insisted that I come over to be a witness.

Is this the yard you bought?"

"Yes! Just in time for the opportunity, the owner of this yard wants to sell it.

The price was not expensive, so I scraped together some money and bought it," Zhang Junping said with a smile.

“The yard is well kept!

I just feel like there’s something wrong with your courtyard gate!” Uncle Liu looked around the courtyard and asked with some confusion.

"Uncle Liu, you have a good eye.

I renovated this Guangliang gate myself after I bought it." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"I'm just telling you! How can there be a courtyard with a wide gate in Dashilan?" Uncle Liu said with a sudden smile.

"Mrs. Zhou, Sister Tian, ​​have you made up your mind?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

"Think about it! It's a blessing for these two children to have you as their teacher.

No, I asked him, Uncle Liu, to write the apprenticeship invitation." Mrs. Zhou said as she took out the apprenticeship invitation.

"Yes!" Zhang Junping did not accept the apprenticeship invitation, but just nodded.

He smiled and invited: "Uncle Liu, Mrs. Zhou, and Sister Tian, ​​let's do it in the house first!"

"Master, we are here!" Before Zhang Junping could enter the room, Li Wenjuan jumped in and ran in.

Followed by Xia Guoxiang and two pairs of middle-aged men and women in their thirties.

It seems that Li Wenjuan and Xia Guoxiang got together.

"Happy New Year, Mr. Zhang!"

"Master, this is my dad and this is my mom!" Li Wenjuan introduced from the side.

"Brother Li, sister-in-law, happy New Year!" Zhang Junping said with a smile and cupped his fists.

"Mr. Zhang, happy New Year!" Xia Guoxiang's parents also came up to say hello.
