"Mr. Li, what do you think of the level of the works here?" Wang Yifu asked Li Shaofeng in a low voice.

Li Shaofeng did not answer his question directly, stretched out his finger and pointed to Li Keren's two paintings, and said meaningfully: "Graceful, delicate, and smart." ”

Wang Yifu nodded knowingly, moved over, looked at Li Keren's painting, and said with a smile: "This little bird's painting is lifelike, vivid, and indeed very deep." I also have one at home. ”

A discerning person can understand that he is interested in these two paintings as soon as he looks at Wang Yifu's actions. Wang Baoyu didn't understand the hobbies of the leaders, Jin Yongtai likes to raise dogs, and Wang Yifu likes to raise birds. When it comes to raising birds, Wang Baoyu is a little distracted, vaguely remembering that his biological mother also loves all kinds of birds, and prefers their crisp calls. Thinking of this, Wang Baoyu's dislike for birds turned out to be a little more.

Besides, Wang Yifu praised the painting affirmatively, if it was someone else, he would definitely take it off immediately and offer it respectfully, but Li Keren pretended to be confused, she stepped forward and said: "Secretary Wang, this is my clumsy work, give me a lot of advice." ”

"Hehe, beautiful artist, I can't talk about pointing, these two works are really talented!" Wang Yifu smiled and praised.

"Thank you, Secretary Wang, for your compliment." Li Keren just didn't let go and gave it to Wang Yifu, the people around him wanted to send it, but Wang Yifu didn't need it, he had to do it in a hurry.

Wang Yifu simply asked some questions, such as how many years he has been painting, what he is good at, etc., Li Keren has to answer all questions, but he does not mention the matter of sending paintings.

Wang Yifu naturally didn't want it clearly, and looked at a few other people's calligraphy and paintings, and then he said that something was wrong, and his eyes glanced at the painting with a little reluctance, and left with regret.

Wang Baoyu suddenly felt that Wang Yifu's expression was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he didn't remember it after thinking about it for a long time.

After a while, a staff member came in and found Li Keren to buy these two paintings, saying that he could buy these two paintings for as much as he wanted, Li Keren was a little tempted, Wang Baoyu said to Li Keren with a smile: "I remember that the eldest sister said that she never sold paintings." ”

"Not for sale! My work still needs to be reworked. Li Keren rejected the staff member.

The staff glared at Wang Baoyu unhappily, and then said: "***, we are very sincere in buying your paintings, even if you open your mouth at the price, everyone can be regarded as making friends." ”

Li Keren shook his head stubbornly and said: "These two paintings are just a preliminary product, and as an artist, you can't sell such a rough work to a friend." We'll get in touch when I'm done with it, okay? ”

The staff smiled awkwardly, and when they saw Li Keren so persistent, they had to leave disappointed.

"Eldest sister, I'm really beginning to admire your character." Wang Baoyu hugged his fist.

"I thought I didn't know, Secretary Wang just wanted to take my paintings without spending money, I've seen a lot of this person." Li Keren said disdainfully.

"Huh! Didn't the eldest sister praise him for being handsome just now! Wang Baoyu asked in surprise.

"Go, handsome can't be eaten." Li Keren scoffed at Wang Baoyu's statement.

Li Shaofeng turned around a few times, a little tired, he decided to eat here at noon, this is a rare honor, Cai Guangde, the principal of the party school, heard about this, and quickly put down the matter in his hand and came to accompany him in person.

Needless to say, the wine and food are very rich, but eating with a group of artists, Wang Baoyu feels uncomfortable, not only because of his young age, but more importantly, in terms of seniority, he is not worth mentioning at all, many artists here are old revolutionaries, and their positions are not low when they are in power, and the lowest is also a department-level cadre, if they don't follow Yang Hongjun, I'm afraid they are not qualified to go to the table.

The artists toasted Li Shaofeng one after another, and Cai Guangde even toasted Li Shaofeng one after another, Wang Baoyu could guess that in their hearts, if they had a good relationship with Li Shaofeng and got the calm of Li Shaofeng's words, their artworks would immediately appreciate.

Li Keren was sitting next to Li Shaofeng, and it was really a little red from the green, which was particularly eye-catching. She behaved very generously, whether it was toasting or drinking, her movements were very elegant, and for the people present, she was also called a teacher, coaxing this group of old people, all of them were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.

"Eldest sister, I really didn't see it, I didn't have stage fright at all! Admire, hidden deeply. Wang Baoyu said with a smile.

"Kid, there's so much you don't know! You'll have to be honest with me in the future, understand? Li Keren said with a smile, and the mood was very good.

"Xiao Wang, be serious." Yang Hongjun, who was sitting next to Wang Baoyu, reminded, because he found that Cai Guangde, the principal of the Party School of the Municipal Party Committee, was frowning and looking at Wang Baoyu, after all, this young man didn't look like an artist.

Wang Baoyu obediently shut up, he was afraid that Yang Hongjun would knock him on the head, and at this moment, Cai Guangde, the principal of the party school, received a phone call, and his face became ugly.

Li Keren didn't have any fear of this principal, she asked with a smile: "Principal Cai, why are you so unhappy!" ”

"In front of all the old-timers, I have nothing to hide, and I just want to ask you to help me!" Cai Guangde arched his hand and said.

"Principal Cai, you have contributed money and efforts to this activity, and those of us, as long as we can help, will naturally spare no effort." The old horse, whom he met when he came yesterday, spoke.

Cai Guangde looked around and said: "It's not a big deal, this afternoon, I originally arranged a class for the leaders of various departments and bureaus in the city, but who knew that the teacher who taught the I Ching couldn't be found." Time is very urgent, and all of you here, who understand ancient culture, hope to be able to come to the rescue. ”

The old artists present looked at each other, if they talked about calligraphy, painting, and even ancient literature, there must be no shortage of heavyweights, but the "Book of Changes" was a science, and they did not dare to be teachers in vain.

Seeing that none of the people present dared to take a stumble, Cai Guangde looked disappointed, so he could only pick up the phone and plan to tell his subordinates that the afternoon lecture would be cancelled, and of course the consequences of doing so would be bad. The leaders have a full schedule, and they will disrupt their plans at will, and there will be trouble in the future.

At this juncture, Yang Hongjun suddenly said, "Principal Cai, I will recommend someone to you." ”

Cai Guangde hurriedly put down the phone and asked with surprise: "Teacher Yang, please speak." ”

"This young man next to me, he is very proficient in the Book of Changes." Yang Hongjun patted Wang Baoyu on the shoulder and said.

Before everyone had time to turn their heads to look at Wang Baoyu, they heard a burst of crisp laughter, and they looked for the sound and left, it was Li Keren who laughed out loud. Li Keren suddenly heard that Wang Baoyu could give lectures, or lecture on the Book of Changes, and couldn't help laughing, thinking that this Yang Hongjun was not old and confused, a child who was not dry and full of swear words, and often drank too much, what kind of I Ching could he say! Impossible.
