Chapter 16 is a thousand gold
Liao Haode's father was originally born in a scholarly family in Jiangnan, and before liberation, he worked in the Ministry of Education of the Nanjing Government, and he also had some contacts with these celebrities in the calligraphy and painting industry of the Republic of China.
In the 70s, he also visited him with his father, and he admired this old man who was called "Picasso of the East" by Westerners.
It's just that Zhang Daqian was already suffering from eye disease at that time and could no longer paint, and after the death of the old man Daqian in 83, Liao Haode sighed.
No matter what era it is, the calligraphy and paintings of Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian are hard to find, and even the calligraphy and paintings that are living among the people are mostly cherished and collected.
So Liao Haode never expected that he could actually see the calligraphy and paintings of the two in this remote mountainous area, and it was also famous for the old Taoist priest in front of him.
You know, it is not very difficult to ask for calligraphy and painting, Zhang Daqian and Qi Baishi have both made a living by selling paintings, but it is not easy to ask them to write postscripts.
Not to mention anything else, based on these two calligraphy and paintings alone, Liao Haode can conclude that the old Taoist in front of him is definitely not an ordinary person, and I am afraid there are not many people in this world who can call those two brothers.
Seeing Liao Haode's knowledge, Lao Dao couldn't help but shudder again, glanced at Ye Tianhou, and said: "This word was written by that kid Zhang Daqian, I don't want to force it on me, these poor literati, give calligraphy and paintings at every turn, in those days, why not give some ocean benefits......"
As the saying goes, things gather people in groups, otherwise he would not have been able to become close friends with these two.
"Ocean? This old guy is really a violent creature......"
After hearing the old Taoist priest's words, Liao Haode held the cloth curtain of Daqian calligraphy and couldn't help but tremble a few times, almost not dropping it on the ground.
You must know that in 1925, Zhang Daqian could sell for 20 yuan in a painting, and now if it is placed overseas, such a word can be worth at least tens of thousands of dollars, and it is not an exaggeration to call it "a word worth a thousand dollars".
"Okay, Xiao Yezi, let's pack all these things......"
Seeing Ye Tian still tossing and turning in the box, Lao Dao couldn't help but say: "When Lao Dao drives west, these objects are all yours, what are you tossing about?"
"Hey, Master, dare you really change houses with this thing? Since Ming'er, I have been learning calligraphy and painting appreciation from you......"
Ye Tian is a clever person, after seeing Liao Haode's expression, he didn't know that these calligraphy and paintings that looked some years old were treasures, so he asked Liao Haode if he wanted that word, and carefully closed the box.
After hearing Ye Tian's words, Lao Dao glanced at Liao Haode, who was reluctant next to him, and laughed and scolded: "Stinky boy, you don't have time tomorrow, solve the trouble you caused, solve it yourself......"
"Hey, Master, I don't have that much ability, you have to take the lead in this matter......"
Ye Tian's little head shook like a rattle, and before he figured out the side effects of the compass-like turtle shell in his mind, Ye Tian didn't plan to use it anymore.
Hearing the conversation between Ye Tian's master and apprentice, Liao Haode, who was originally thinking about Zhang Daqian's calligraphy, finally thought of his intention, and when he saw the two shirking each other, he couldn't help but ask: "Master, do you know the purpose of my coming here?"
Liao Haode's return to China this time to bury his parents together, except for a few relatives in the family, no one else knew, although he knew that Lao Dao was Ye Tian's master, this ability was naturally higher, but he still couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe, the old Taoist has seen one or two, but I don't know if what he said is right......"
Although the old Taoist didn't talk to Liao Haode much just now, he still secretly looked at his face, and from Liao Haode's words, he also guessed a few points, and then said: "Liao Jushi, I see that your sun and moon are in a state of unevenness, it must be because of the weak fate of your parents, and your mother died before your father.
After hearing Lao Dao's words, Liao Haode showed an excited look on his face, and nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, Master, please take action, as long as I can find my mother's coffin, I ...... I must thank you very much......
Seeing Liao Haode's chick nodding like a chicken pecking rice, Ye Tian couldn't help but scold in his heart: "Right fart!"
As the saying goes, the layman watches the excitement, and the insider looks at the doorway, Ye Tian can see that Liao Haode revealed a lot of flaws and information when facing the old way, if the old guy can't see his intentions anymore, then he will live for more than a hundred years in vain.
Moreover, the phrase "mother dies before father" said by Lao Tao is a panacea, which can be understood as "mother is alive, father dies first", or "mother dies before father, dies", anyway, no matter how you say it, it will not be wrong.
"The old Taoist is old, and this feng shui is long gone, Liao Jushi, please go back......" Just when Ye Tian and Liao Haode both thought that the old Taoist would agree, they didn't expect him to say that he would directly refuse.
"Master fooled people again......"
After hearing Master's words, Ye Tian almost didn't laugh out loud, he had just shown Feng Shui to Miao Lao a few days ago, and now he actually washed his hands in a golden basin.
Liao Haode didn't know the truth, and really thought that the old Taoist would no longer show feng shui to others, so he hurriedly took a step forward and begged with a panicked face: "Master, old immortal, please help me fulfill my father's last wish for Liao's filial piety! No matter what you ask, as long as Liao can do it, he will definitely agree to ......."
In Taiwan and Hong Kong, there is a large market, from moving to a residence, getting married and having children, to choosing a location for a company to open a market, all of which are inseparable from Feng Shui.
Therefore, in these two areas, the status of Mr. Feng Shui is still very high, and some master-level Feng Shui masters can scare people to death at the price of a single shot.
And the Taoist practice of the person in front of him seemed to far exceed those masters that Liao Haode had seen, so he said that he was free to let the other party set his terms.
For cultural people, talking about money may be an insult, but Liao Haode has become a businessman in his bones.
In fact, Liao Haode can also invite people from Hong Kong and Taiwan, but now that the mainland is not fully open, it may take a year and a half to go through the procedures, he can't put his father's ashes in front of the hall, right?
"The old Taoist is alone, what use is he in asking for money?"
The old Taoist shook his head, and when he saw Liao Haode's disappointed face, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Liao Jushi, the old Taoist is old and doesn't want to get involved in the rivers and lakes anymore, if you can trust my lineage, let the little disciple go and take a look......"
"Master, my illness is not cured yet, what if I hurt my vitality again?"
Before the old Taoist finished speaking, Ye Tian protested, he brought Liao Haode here, he originally wanted to move the water of disaster eastward, this...... Why did he go back to himself?
"That's right, Master, Ye Tian is still young, and he is sick again, so please take a look......"
Liao Haode also persuaded from the side, as the saying goes, if you don't have hair on your lips, you can't do things firmly, just like people go to the hospital to see a doctor, the old doctor's outpatient clinic is always crowded, but the front of those young doctors is deserted.
The same is true for fortune-telling feng shui, if you don't believe that Ye Tian and Lao Dao each hold a sign and stand on the street, no one will pay attention to Ye Tian.
"It's okay, Xiao Ye broke the taboo before, but now it's not in the way......"
The old Taoist waved his hand, turned his face to look at Ye Tian with a smile, and said: "Xiao Yezi, Master has already taught you all this feng shui skills, if you want to truly become a feng shui physiognomic master, you need to practice a lot, isn't it a good opportunity now......?"
"I...... I didn't say I wanted to be a feng shui physiognomy......"
"You are a closed disciple of your master, and you are destined to embark on this path in the future!"
Lao Dao didn't take Ye Tian's words seriously, this kid is amazingly talented, even if he doesn't deliberately do it, he will shine in this industry in the future.
After hearing the master's words, Ye Tian wanted to cry without tears, this old man was probably not sure to find the burial place of Liao Haode's mother, and he actually pushed it all on his own child.
In fact, Ye Tian was not wrong, the old Taoist was unwilling to go down the mountain, and he was indeed not very sure.
You know, the ancients said that looking for dragons in three years and acupuncture points in ten years, feng shui is far from a simple matter of holding a compass and chanting a few spells, let alone as easy as helping Boss Miao look at the feng shui yang house, but it takes a lot of effort.
As for helping people find a place for their relatives to live in many wild graves, it is even more necessary to deduce the date of birth and death of the person concerned.
If it hurts the body like this, and secondly, if it is something that is not certain, the old Taoist will naturally be unwilling to take action.
And letting Ye Tian go is just an excuse for the old Taoist, although Ye Tian is extremely talented, but the old Taoist estimates that he can't calculate the burial place of Liao Haode's mother, so naturally he won't hurt himself.
After hearing Lao Dao's words, Liao Haode stopped calling any children, looked at Ye Tian and said: "Ye Tian, you can help Grandpa Liao with this, whatever you want, Grandpa Liao will buy it for you......"
If Liao Haode's domestic visa is about to expire, if he can't find his mother's burial place, he can only bury his father's ashes alone.
"Okay, I'll try, but Grandpa Liao, if you can't find it, you can't blame me......" Ye Tian tilted his little head and thought for a while, and finally agreed.
