Chapter 114: Cattle illustration

Xie Zhonghua's gift for his old father was packed in a long gift box. After Xie Zhonghua's hands were presented, two ritual ladies in cheongsams took it forward and took it apart on the spot ...

Generally, in such occasions, gifts given by others are rarely taken apart in public, after all, it will appear that the owner has no protection.

However, the rules of the Xie family are a little different ... It is said that when Xie Jiazu went up, he was once a family of wealthy merchants in the Qing Dynasty. day.

In other words, let the juniors in the family present a gift that you think will move the owner most. This gift may not be the most expensive in the market, but it must satisfy the owner! Every time the homeowner will give a private ranking to the gifts given by the juniors, if the birthday gift that can also move the homeowner, the lower value one wins.

In fact, this is also to let the children of the family learn to try to understand people's hearts through this ceremony. Xie's family, as a wealthy businessman inherited from generation to generation, has been doing business all over the country. Because the communication of ancient times was extremely slow, this required the children in the family to have sufficient decision-making ability to seize business opportunities at the appropriate time. So ... The link of this birthday gift is tantamount to testing the eyes of the family children.

If you want to seize business opportunities, you naturally need to understand the real needs of consumers, and the owner is their own family. If you ca n’t even grasp the owner ’s preferences, how can you cater to the needs of others?

Or it is precisely because of this seemingly strange way of selecting talents that the Xie family has been adhering to for many years that the Xie family can continue to prosper. Until the founding of Xinhuaxia ... the rules passed down by this ancestor have never been interrupted. Even in those special eras, even people like them who are in the business world are afraid to do business anymore, but they still use the The rules of this birthday gift have continued.

After decades of policy changes, the Xie family, which has always maintained this tradition, immediately took advantage of the trend, and soon became the first wealthy people, and these years are growing stronger and stronger. !!

The rules of life-giving gifts have also been valued more and more by the Xie family, but in the early years, they were sneaky. Basically, the Xie family had locked themselves up for this ceremony. Until a few years ago, the Xie family's influence became more and more Big, when the grandfather Xie family celebrated his birthday, more and more big men came to participate, and everyone basically knew that Xie family had such rules, and even some people repeatedly suggested that they wanted to observe the ceremony. After Mr. Xie's family thought over and over again, he agreed. From then on, no longer taboo, as long as those who are qualified to participate in the birthday feast of Mr. Xie, you can watch the ceremony at the scene.

Miss Etiquette opened the gift box, and she saw a scroll of calligraphy and painting inside. After the two etiquette ladies unpacked the brocade painting bag again, they unfolded the scroll slowly in public ... and immediately saw an antique watercolor scroll showing.

This picture depicts a valley in which a large green cow and two young calves are grazing leisurely, and there is a little shepherd boy, about seven or eight years old, in a stream not far away. Playing piccolo on the side ...

Similar pictures of herds of cattle have appeared a lot in the history of Huaxia. Many well-known painters have painted pictures in this style, but ... this one is obviously giving a fresh and refined feeling.

However, for most tasting pictures, only laymen who use "like" and "not like" as the standard, naturally cannot see the beauty of it. But everyone knows that ... with Xie Zhonghua's background, the paintings he can come up with are certainly impossible. However, at the lower corner of the painting, it should have been nominated by the artist ’s seal, but it was blocked by a piece of red silk, so it is naturally difficult to guess the painting from the face painting alone. The true origin.

At this time, always sitting on the teacher's chair, Mr. Xie, who had always been debilitated, suddenly stunned, Huo Di stood up, pointed at the scroll unfolded by the two etiquette ladies, exclaimed: "This ... this Could it be the true story of Castiglione by Castiglione! "

People who have no interest in painting and calligraphy and history, at this time Wu Wu did not understand what excitement the old man was excited about! Generally, there are only a few famous painting and calligraphy artists who know this, such as Qi Baishi, Tang Bohu, and Zheng Banqiao, Xu Beihong ... no more knowing!

Who is Castiglione? Never heard of it! Lang Jiu has heard of it ... a little bit of stamina!

At this time, Xie Zhonghua smiled slightly and said, "Yeah ... this is the true trace of Castiglione. I took a trip to London in the last month and participated in an underground auction for $ 150 million. I finally got this painting in my hands, and you will like it if you want to come to my father! "

Mr. Xie didn't speak first, but walked forward slightly, uncovered the red silk cloth covering it, and then took out a magnifying glass with excitement and watched it carefully. Cai reluctantly looked back and said, "Like ... Of course I like it! What is even more rare ... This should be the Chinese treasure that was left overseas during the Eight-Power Allied Forces. You can buy him back in China and let the national treasure go home ... ... this is the most important thing! OK ... your kid is really good! "

Hearing Mr. Xie ’s sincere appreciation, Xie Zhonghua did n’t know whether to cry or laugh!

It seems that he is now in his fifties and running towards sixty, but he was called a kid by such an old father in front of so many people. This is too ...

However, Xie Zhonghua was speechless in heart and did not dare to protest with his father, so he reluctantly bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your father's compliment. I wish my father a blessing like Donghai and Shoubi Nanshan!"

After all, Xie Zhonghua turned on his own, and the old man returned to the Taishi chair again, and the life-giving ceremony continued ...

With Xie Zhonghua's bead jade in front, the birthday presents given by Xie Zhonghua's younger brothers and sisters seem a little ordinary. Basically, they are some jade articles, calligraphy and paintings, antiques and other things, but in terms of value, they must be far less than that of Lang Shining's "Cattle Cattle Picture".

But there is no other way. They don't want to present a gift that can surprise Master, but ... where are the real treasures and antiques so easy to find! It's either in some museum collections or in the hands of some big collectors, but you can't buy it with money.

Throughout this life of Father Xie, it seems that the elderly have only one such hobby. If they want to do what they like, they can't find any directions at all!

Fortunately, in the present era, the form of birthday gift can only be regarded as a form. It rarely happens that someone will affect the status of Xie family because of the quality of a birthday gift!

After all, electronic communications in modern society are very developed, and once the personnel in charge of the expatriate party encounter a major business opportunity, it will cause irreparable errors due to misjudgments! Although in Xie's family, the business ability of the family children is also valued, but it is no longer as strict as before!

So ... many children in the family ca n’t find a gift that pleases the old man, so they just buy one to deal with!
