Chapter 441 Tacit Understanding

Zhao Mo tilted his head and looked over with confusion: "What's wrong with my cousin?"

Qin Hanzhen smiled dryly and put down his fist: "It's okay, it's okay." It's better to keep this plan secret for the time being, so as not to let the word out early and fail in the end, which would be too shameful. What's more, if you want to convince your grandparents, you also need to

A little strategy.

Qin Hanzhen changed the subject: "Cousin Zhao, your paintings are so wonderful, they are almost like Jiangnan style paintings. If you bind these paintings into a book and add the explanatory text, they can be used as

I’ve read the travelogue.”

Zhao Mo's face turned red when he heard Qin Hanzhen praising him: "My cousin deserves the award, but I don't dare to accept it. Mine... can only be regarded as graffiti at best. It's all drawn casually, and it's not good at all. I just want to

Let you see the scenery of Jiangnan and the terraces and streets there. This is what I mean

, compared with the real scenery, it's far behind. If my cousin has the chance in the future, she'd better go and see it for herself." After finishing speaking, I felt a little uneasy, worried that my third cousin would be sad after hearing this, because

She is far less free to move now than she is, and she can't just go out and play whenever she wants.

Qin Hanzhen was not as sensitive as he thought, but smiled and said: "This is not a painting by a famous artist. It is rare for my cousin to be able to paint all kinds of scenery, houses, and people so clearly. I also saw it at my grandfather's place."

There are one or two ancient paintings that depict ordinary people in the market, but it is really rare for you to paint so many people, houses, stalls, and livestock on one piece of paper at the same time.

It's rare that you can draw so vividly. Although the lines are simple, the personality characteristics of the characters are revealed, the layout is good, the priorities are clear, and the details are not ignored. If you put your paintings at the same time,

Pick out everything in one place and piece it together into a big picture. If you make it a little more detailed and better, it will be a rare masterpiece. Anyway, I don't think your painting is bad."

The smile on Zhao Mo's face couldn't be suppressed, but his tone of voice was still quite modest: "My cousin said it makes me feel embarrassed. My painting skills are only mediocre, and these paintings look like they were done in a hurry.

It's too rough. I watched my cousin learn painting from my uncle and grandpa before. I only studied for two months and she seemed to be better at painting than me. My cousin praised me so much, which really makes me ashamed."

Qin Hanzhen waved his hand and said seriously: "I am seeking truth from facts, but I don't mean to exaggerate on purpose. Your painting is just good. Although the lines are thick because you painted them in a hurry, as long as you paint again slowly,

If you modify it more carefully, the effect will be

It's definitely not bad!" She thought for a moment, "How about... let's do this together in our free time? Can I help you? I just happen to be learning painting recently. I should be able to help with some simple patterns.

I can also help polish the description text."

Zhao Mo painted these paintings just so that Qin Han could really see the scenery he saw. He did not expect that she would suggest to paint all the paintings again. He hesitated for a moment, and immediately decided to agree. Being able to communicate with Qin San

My cousin works together to do something, and it takes a long time and a lot of thought to do it well. Why should he refuse?

He also said to Qin Hanzhen: "My cousin's suggestion is really good. Let's do this. When the painting is finished, we will show it to my uncle and aunt. When we return to the capital in the future, we can also paint the painting in our free time.

Take it out and recall the scenery you saw in Jiangnan."

Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "That's great. Not only are there paintings, but there are also words. It's much more intuitive than just listening to what you say. Grandma will definitely like it!" And as long as Niu likes it, he says he wants to travel.

, are you still afraid that your grandfather will not agree?

The two made an agreement and took action immediately.

First, he had to decide which small pictures should be used to put together a big picture, and then he had to rearrange the layout and let Zhao Mo add details based on his memories. And because Qin Hanzhen was studying painting and had not yet learned how to draw figures, Zhao Mo's characters

Their painting skills were very ordinary, so the two of them had to secretly read the painting manuals given by Qin Bai, learn from the demonstrations of famous artists, and practice in private. Because they were afraid of being blamed by Qin Bai and saying that they were not doing their jobs properly, they did not dare to follow their elders.

they said.

Even Qin Jian didn't know because he was busy copying books.

However, the feeling of secretly working together to do something is quite interesting. Qin Han really felt the excitement that he had not seen for a long time, while Zhao Mo felt that his life was more interesting.

When they were practicing painting and discussing, Qin Hanzhen would often point to a small part of a painting and ask Zhao Mo about the details in reality. Zhao Mo explained to her while recalling, and slowly, he also

Everything he experienced along the way was told to Qin Hanzhen. Naturally, this journey could not be all interesting and happy experiences, and there would also be some not-so-pleasant things. Zhao Mo originally did not want to

The Qin family was worried, so they never said anything, but now they couldn't hide it anymore.

However, his thoughts were a little different now. He began to feel that letting Qin Hanzhen know his experiences and thoughts more clearly seemed... not a bad thing. Because Qin Hanzhen rarely had the same feelings as him.

He never dared to tell others his opinion, even if that opinion would be shocking to others, but Qin Hanzhen could always agree with his hero. Isn't it gratifying to have such a tacit understanding?

For example, he once met a man who loved gambling and was cruel. In order to satisfy his gambling addiction, he was willing to sell his own children to do hard labor in exchange for a few taels of silver to "make money". His wife and children cried and begged him on their knees.

Stop gambling, but he kicked his wife and injured her.

He left without looking back. Such human tragedies made him angry and self-inflicted. Thinking of his own experience, he realized once again that not all fathers in the world will cherish their children. There are always some.

What would he be willing to trade with his own flesh and blood for?

Zhao Mo thought at that time that if his gambling father died early, maybe his family would be better off. But he couldn't say this, so he could only silently order Ah Shou to send some money to help the man who almost cried.

The mother who fainted saved her children from being reduced to human slavery.

He also asked Ah Shou to quietly ask the mother and son if they were willing to live in other places. They had hands and feet, so they would not be unable to support themselves. At that time, they would only need to arrange for them to work in their own property. But

The mother refused because she couldn't let go

Her husband, her husband's family, her husband's family, her husband's family who were also poor, the leaky house she had lived in for more than ten years, and the chickens she secretly raised in her own yard. She said she had no money to pay back to her benefactor, so she could only pay it back to her benefactor.

Pray that my benefactor may live a peaceful and happy life.

Zhao Mo thought to himself that his peace and joy had never been prayed for by a strange village woman. He could only rely on himself. He could help the woman once, but he could not help her forever. Now that she had made a decision,

He just walked away silently.

When he told Qin Hanzhen about this, Qin Hanzhen was very angry. She said: "Can't this woman cheer up a little in order to protect her children? There is no hope for this bad gambler. She should stop it in time."

Loss! Since that man didn’t want a child for gambling money, then why did she and the child want him? If you can provide a new life for them, mother and child, they should go with you. Not only do you get rid of the gambler who will only hold you back, but you also have

a stable life and economy

With the income, she will live a good life in the future, and her children will benefit from it. If she is willing to come back, she can also help other relatives. But she still wants to stay? Even if you don't ask her to pay back the money, at least she must come up with a practical solution.

Is there some way to repay her kindness? Even if she is selfish and doesn't repay her kindness, she should think about what she and her children will do in the future, right? If her husband can sell his children for the first time, he can sell them for the second time and the third time! Is it possible that every time

Can she find a kind-hearted rich person to help her?!"

Qin Han felt really sorry for him, and she hated the mother so much, but from the beginning to the end, she never said the words "filial piety is the most important thing". She didn't seem to think that a father was ruthless, but a child was.

He had to be filial to his father unconditionally, but he felt that those children should leave their ruthless father. This made Zhao Mo feel more confident.

For another example, when he was passing through Songjiang with Zhou Changnian and He Xin, he found that the local fine cotton cloth was excellent, but the selling price was also very high. However, there was a new type of cloth that was not well-known, so the price was very affordable for the time being. This kind of cloth

Compared with other cloths, cloth has a special advantage, that is, the dyed color looks particularly pink. If

After washing it once or twice, the color will be more pink and tender, but the fading will not be serious. Compared with ordinary brightly colored muslin, it can withstand starching and can be washed ten or eight times before the color will fade slightly.

Some. This is not a benefit that can be seen in a short time. Zhao Mo only understood the truth by chance.

The owner of the cloth was in urgent need of a large sum of money because of a sudden accident at home, but all the money on hand was tied up in the goods. He had to sell the goods as soon as possible. He really didn't have time to build up the reputation of the new cloth. Zhao Mo did not hesitate at that time.

How long did it take before he made the decision to take over? He had plenty of money in hand.

He had enough money and spent three thousand taels to eat all the goods. It was no problem at all. But the people around him advised him not to take risks. If he liked the cloth, he could buy a few more pieces and give them away. After all, he

If he is a member of the clan and is not good at doing business, it will appear that his status is low.

After Qin Hanzhen listened to his account, he said: "What's the point? Just pick a smarter person from you and do the business in his name. From what you said, this batch of cloth is of little fame."

One point, in fact, the quality is excellent and the color is also very good. If you buy it for 3,000 taels and sell it slowly by opening your own cloth store, the profit may be higher, but the return of funds will be slower. You can definitely find a large store with a good reputation.

Shop, let the other party know this

Then you can set a higher price and sell it. You can make a fortune by changing hands without having to go through the trouble of opening a shop yourself. Isn’t it great? You have helped people and made a fortune, and everyone is happy. The descendants of the clan are happy.

What's the matter? Don't the children of the clan have to eat? Who among the princes, nobles and wealthy families in the capital doesn't have any property? The business is gone. It's just in other people's names, so they can pretend to be aloof.

That’s all.”

The corners of Zhao Mo's lips curled up slightly, and he told Qin Hanzhen: "I really bought all that batch of cloth. When I came back, I had two followers who followed me, who were responsible for escorting the batch of cloth. Ah Shou went out yesterday

, went to the city to inquire about cloth shops for me, and found one, and the price was negotiated. I want to take advantage of the end of the year, when there are many people coming to the city to buy, and sell all this batch of cloth."

Qin Hanzhen's eyes lit up: "Ah, that's great! Cousin Zhao is getting rich, so he wants to treat you."

A smile appeared on Zhao Mo's lips: "I'm sure, I'll listen to my cousin wherever I invite you!"
