Topics that are heavy and need thinking always need their own space.
Verrocchio took Anno into the carriage and dismissed the coachman.
Annuo looked at this high-spirited artist in his thirties quietly, silently waiting for him to speak.
Verrocchio did not speak immediately, but looked at Anno with exploratory eyes.
Anno was not embarrassed or afraid, and looked at Verrocchio calmly.
Verrocchio discovered an interesting soul.
He suddenly stopped laughing and laughed heartily.
He extended his invitation.
"Mr. Laurence Annoy Falgault."
"Um."
"Would you like to come and work in my studio?"
"Have Uncle Fedino and Aunt Anna agreed?" Annuo understood that the three of them must have been talking about something in the room just now.
Verrocchio leaned back, leaned on the gorgeous backrest, and smiled calmly: "Of course, that's why I want to talk to you."
An Nuo lowered his head and looked at the toes of his shoes.
"I heard you are a very good artist, so what kind of work do I need to do for you?" He agreed.
Verrocchio had already planned: "Well... for the time being, you can be responsible for the purchasing and sanitation in the studio, and you also need to organize the works of the studio members."
After saying that, he thought about it and felt that it was overkill: "In addition, sometimes I need you to be a model."
An Nuo smiled and nodded: "I can do all these jobs, so how will my remuneration be?"
Verrocchio opened his fingers and made a sign of seven: "I can pay you seven floras a month. If you still want to learn from me, I can only pay you five."
"If I can learn, I only need five." Annuo thought for a few minutes and chose the latter.
"A wise choice." Verrocchio smiled with satisfaction.
In fact, he threw out the first choice just to let Annuo choose the second one.
Anno has nowhere to go in Florence, so he will definitely stay at Verrocchio's house temporarily. If he doesn't need to buy a place to live, Anno's expenses will be very small, and five floras are completely enough.
When Anno arrived at his studio, his actual status would be more like an intern. By the time Anno could paint by himself, Verrocchio's salary might not be as much as what Anno could earn from painting by himself.
Under normal circumstances, the acquired knowledge and skills are always greater than the vested interests.
What's more, today's kings and churches rarely like art, so artists are very valuable now.
If Verrocchio's intuition hadn't told Verrocchio that Anno was a special person, Verrocchio would never have easily recruited anyone into his studio.
Why do we have so many people? Are we trying to grab a job?
He patted Annuo's shoulder with his broad palm: "Then, go and pack your things, little sir."
"I understand, Mr. Verrocchio." Anno stepped out of the carriage with one foot and turned his head, "Can I call you teacher now?"
"certainly."
"Then Mr. Verrocchio, can I come back in the future?"
Verrocchio patted Anno on the back: "Every time I come to buy candy, I will take you with me."
He saw Annuo's performance in his eyes.
Interesting soul, unique temperament, beautiful character, and smart mind.
