Chapter 73

"In those days, the Pu brothers and a group of colleagues formed the Songfeng Painting Society. They often gathered in Pu Ru's Cuijin Garden to combine poems and paintings. They often had excellent works, appreciated and sang, and they also held a banquet with flowers and flying wine glasses.

And the drunken moon."

"The boy from the Qi family is also here. That boy has spiritual energy. Pu Ru fell in love with him at first sight. When he had the opportunity, he taught him step by step..."

After talking to himself for a while, the old man slowly looked back.

"This long scroll is the proud work of Puru after he lived in seclusion in Jietai Temple for three years. In Cuijin Garden, he and Songfeng gathered together to admire it. Everyone admired it in silence, and their high-pitched talks turned clear, and they all praised the inscriptions and postscripts."

He said to Chang Xian: "You are brother Jin Yu's proud disciple, and you got this long scroll by chance. As brother Jin Yu said, this is your destiny!"

Feeling sentimental for a moment, the old man asked: "Since you want to get into the antique business, what are your plans?"

Chang Xian sorted it out in his mind and said, "My plan for myself is to be a collector, not an antique dealer."

"oh?"

The old man asked: "Tell me, what is the difference between a collector and an antique dealer?"

Chang Xian said: "Pattern."

"pattern?"

The old man's eyebrows twitched, and this answer seemed a bit beyond the old man's expectations.

Chang Xian got out of his interview mood and spoke with all his energy: "The same thing remains true. The antique shop is also a business. It has similarities with business, so I will use the analogy of business."

"Whether it is history or today, business can be divided into three levels."

"The most junior ones can only be called businessmen. Why do you say that? You can understand it from the literal meaning. Our Chinese characters are broad and profound, and 'looking for a job' is also called 'looking for a job.' The dialect in my hometown simply calls it 'looking for a living.'

.The '生' of 'doing business' is actually the '生' of 'making a living'. In the final analysis, it is for livelihood."

"Small traders and hawkers are businessmen. They go wherever they can make money and do whatever they can to make money. They only see immediate benefits and lack long-term planning."

"The same is true for antique shops. Those shovels, brokers, and vendors who go to the countryside to count Buddhist beads are all antique businessmen, or antique dealers."

"They weather the storm and make a living by buying and selling antiques. Their biggest wish is to buy a store in Shenyang Road or Liulichang and become antique merchants."

The old man asked: "What then?"

Chang Xian said: "Those with higher levels can be called businessmen. Such businessmen no longer have to worry about making a living. They have more energy and confidence to plan more complex problems."

"Businessmen will consider the ratio of investment to income, make trade-offs based on profit size, consider long-term brand management, and focus on a larger market. But in the final analysis, what they consider is money and huge profits."

"In the antique shop, those time-honored brands in Shenyang Dao and Liulichang are antique dealers. They formulate and maintain the rules of the industry. They buy when the poor are rich and sell when they are rich, and speculate on the rise and fall. What they want to pass on is to inherit their own brands and craftsmanship.

Keep eating this bowl of rice forever."

The old man asked: "Then collectors don't care about profits or money?"

Chang Xian said with emotion: "Of course you need to consider profits. Whether you are an entrepreneur or a businessman, you are actually a businessman, just a more advanced businessman, and the foundation of a businessman is money."

"The economy determines the superstructure. If a country has no money, it will perish. If an enterprise has no money, it will go bankrupt. If a family has no money, everything will be miserable."

"But small traders focus on livelihood, businessmen pursue short- and medium-term profits, and entrepreneurs care more about the business they create."

"Entrepreneurs take doing business as their goal, capital is a means, and profit is the result. Businessmen take making money as their goal and result, and everything else is just a means."

"Collection is a bottomless pit for burning money. Without wealth as a foundation, there is no way to collect."

“Collection is different from general commerce because the goods it handles are works of art, cultural relics, and the carrier of national civilization.”

"Therefore, collectors are different from ordinary entrepreneurs. They not only use money as a means to achieve their careers, but also use the economy as a basis to achieve their mission of inheriting national civilization!"

"Mr. Ye Gongchao is like Mao Gongding, Mr. Zhang Boju is like "Ping Fu Tie" and "Spring Outing", and Mr. Sun Yingzhou is like Doucai Sanqiu Cup!"

The old man's long eyebrows flew up, and some complicated emotions seemed to pass over his face.

But his wrinkles were so deep and he calmed down so quickly that it disappeared before he could even notice it.

The old man was silent and sighed for a long time: "This will be difficult."

Chang Xian smiled and said: "It is indeed not easy, but no matter how difficult it is, I will not feel sorry for Mr. Ye Gongchao. They are Japanese pirates who are fighting against each other. The most I can do is lose everything."

"I am a descendant of the Han family, so what should I be afraid of? This place in Jinmen has the hidden saint in front of me. I cannot reach it physically, but I yearn for it in my heart."

"Xiao Chang's words deeply touched my heart."

Nan Shi, who had been sitting for a long time, said: "From a historical perspective, most people's time coordinate system is three years and five years, ten or eight years at most, but Zhang Boju is an outstanding person, viewing honors and honors as dross, and power as dust. His time

The coordinate system will be thousands of years old!"

"You have a great husband in Nankai!"

The old man sighed to Master Nan: "Back then, there were young people studying for the rise of China, but today there are young people studying for the civilization of the nation!"

He nodded and said: "Brother Jinyu, as you wish, I will accept this disciple!"

Chang Xian waited aside, secretly happy when he saw that the old man finally agreed to accept a disciple.

Just as he was thinking about how to become a disciple, he saw the old man getting up slowly and picking up pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the ground.

He slowly unfolded a piece of rough-edged paper, pondered for a moment, and began to write.

It is an extremely beautiful small regular script with hairpin flowers. It is based on the "Huang Ting Sutra" and has a bit of a temple atmosphere like the "Ling Fei Sutra".

Chang Xian boasted that he had some attainments in calligraphy, but in front of the old man, his eyes suddenly became dirty and he couldn't stand up to the stage.

"It's the first day of August in Jiashen. The dead trees are falling, and the letter from Qiu Hong comes."

"Nanjun Jinyu and his best brother come to visit you often. You don't think that Yu has little knowledge and knowledge, and is lonely and ignorant. He wants to ask Changjun to go to Yu's hall and enter Yu's room. I have been favored by Nanjun for a long time.

, although it is not as good as Ji Bu, it is certainly its promise."

"According to the old saying about cutting candles in front of the window forty years ago, now that I have received Chang Jun at his door, Nan Jun's love has been fulfilled. This note."

It only takes a cup of tea, and the old man can do it with just one wave of his hand.

The old man sat at the table and read it softly from beginning to end. When he felt that there was no problem, he blew lightly on the paper.

He reached out and put the brush on the pen holder, stood up and stretched out his hand to greet Master Nan.

"Brother Jinyu, please!"

Chang Xian on the side was dumbfounded. In order to repay the favor forty years ago, he accepted an apprentice and wrote a word that had no legal effect to prove that this karma had been fulfilled.

Could this be the style of celebrities?

If this calligraphy is passed down, can it be called "Human Love Note"?

Master Nan smiled bitterly, with complicated expressions in his eyes, as if he was reluctant to give up: "Brother Xue Monk, how can a man have the word "benevolence" in his heart? Why should he do this?"

The old man pointed stubbornly, with a determined look on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Jinyu, have you ever had the word "ungrateful" in your heart? Please!"
