Generally speaking, there are piano shops only in provincial capitals. After all, this thing belongs to the high-end, and the storehouse knows the etiquette. Only when you are full of food and drink can you appreciate elegant music.
Therefore, the piano shop in Anping County usually sells very few pianos. Fortunately, Liu Daquan, the owner of the piano shop, not only sells pianos, but also is a craftsman who makes pianos. He chose Anping County because of the production in Anping County. An old cedar wood, hundreds of years old cedar wood, is simply the most high-grade wood for making pianos, so he chose to open a piano shop in Anping County, and then he stayed here. In a blink of an eye, the past For more than twenty years.
In the past 20 years, he has witnessed too much history. There have been famine years, people starved to death outside the city, and he has also seen warlords fighting, and the king's banner on the top of the city. He just quietly, To be his guqin, the whole world is the same, if you leave here, where can you go? If something unexpected happened one day, it was fate.
Because of his reputation and good materials, the pianos he made are still not worried about selling.
For Liu Daquan, this was the most ordinary day. His piano shop was in front of the storefront. At this time, there were no customers inside. In fact, there have been very few customers in recent years. Liu Daquan is usually regular customers. He was introduced from the provincial capital.
Liu Daquan is in the store, and he is tuning a piano. He plucks the strings with his fingers, closes his eyes, and listens carefully to the sound. As a luthier, one must have a pair of dexterous hands and a pair of keen ears of.
As he plucked the strings, the sound came out intermittently.
Beside him, there are several violins being made, with paint on them, and some of them have just been polished and are going to be painted for the second time.
"Hey, Master Liu, are you busy?" Just then, a voice came from outside.
Liu Daquan turned his head and saw a young man he had never known, dressed in tatters, he did not look like a rich man who could afford a piano.
"Who are you? What are you here for?" Liu Daquan asked.
"Master Liu, I'm here to find some business." After speaking, Qin Baoshan took out a piece of ocean from his pocket, put it in his mouth and blew it, and listened to it in his ear.
"The cheapest piano is five oceans." Liu Daquan said, although he didn't know how the other party looked poor, how could there be oceans, but one ocean is far from enough.
"What I want is not a qin, but a raw material for making qin here, Fanlishui." Qin Baoshan said: "To be precise, it is the shellac in the Fanlishui."
Hearing Qin Baoshan's words, Liu Daquan stood up suddenly, and swung the broom from the side in his hand: "Go, go, go, people like you are not welcome here, let me go immediately."
Liu Daquan's eyes were full of vigilance, and his face was also displeased. He just wanted to drive Qin Baoshan away immediately.
"Hey, hey, for business, what is sold is not sold, do you need to be so rigid?" Qin Baoshan said quickly.
Many craftsmen in this era have a bad temper. Take apprenticeship as an example. Most apprentices have to survive a period of abuse by their masters before they learn something useful.
Liu Daquan is obviously one of the more eccentric masters of this kind. He was chased away by the other party as soon as he explained his purpose. Qin Baoshan quickly took out a stack of oceans from his pocket: "Ten Yuan Datou is very good-looking. , sell me as much as you want, it¡¯s okay, right?¡±
"Not for sale, not for sale." Liu Daquan said, "Go quickly."
"Uncle Liu." At this moment, Gao Lili walked in and said to Liu Daquan: "Uncle Liu, don't worry, I brought him here, I am Gao Lili."
As he spoke, he took off the turban on his head and wiped his face with his sleeve.
In fact, it is quite dangerous for Gao Lili to come, so I don't intend to let Gao Lili show up unless it is a last resort. It would be better if you can buy it with money.
But now, Qin Baoshan came over and took the liberty to buy it. Liu Daquan didn't buy it, and wanted to drive him away. If there was a commotion and people around noticed it, it would be bad.
In this case, Gao Lili finally appeared.
Liu Daquan's face changed: "Lili, you, you are causing trouble for me. Come on, come in."
He said, looked around to see if there was no one there, closed the outside door, walked through the middle yard, and came to the back house.
Not long ago, the affairs of Gao's family caused a disturbance all over the city, and dozens of people died! Liu Daquan had a good relationship with the Gao family, and was implicated. The devils came to him to investigate several times, but they couldn't find anything to blame, so they let it go.? him.
Unexpectedly, Gao Lili came back again.
"Where are your parents?" Liu Daquan asked.
"They have already gone back, and I stayed and joined the guerrillas." Gao Lili said: "Uncle Liu, in this world, there is no way for ordinary people to survive. We, descendants of the Yellow Emperor, must stand up bravely and defend our motherland. Defeat the devils"
"Okay, okay, you want to hurt your Uncle Liu." Liu Daquan hurriedly stopped her.
At this moment, Qin Baoshan was standing aside, looking at Liu Daquan.
He is not a bad person. When he found out that Gao Lili was here, he was very nervous, for fear that she would be discovered. This shows that he still has a Chinese conscience.
But that's all. Although he is dissatisfied with the status quo, he dare not resist, dare not stand up bravely. In fact, many people have this attitude. They will only remain silent in the face of everything. Or erupt in silence, or perish in silence.
"The city is too dangerous, so hurry up and leave," Liu Daquan said.
"Uncle Liu, we are here to buy shellac." Gao Lili said, "We can only leave when we get shellac. This thing"
"What do you want this kind of thing for?" At this time, Liu Daquan was not as hostile as before. Could it be that the guerrillas wanted to change their careers to become carpenters? Or a carpenter who pursues the ultimate?
"Moisture-proof." Qin Baoshan said: "This thing is very important to us. If you give it to us now, it will make a great contribution to our resistance against Japan. The motherland and the people will thank you"
"No, I can't bear your words. Besides, I still have this thing, but"
But before he finished speaking, a voice came from outside: "Boom, boom, boom!"
"Damn, what kind of door is closed in broad daylight, Liu Daquan, you are inside, what kind of moth is there?"
Hearing this, the faces of several people changed.
"You are inside, no one should go out." Liu Daquan hurriedly greeted the two of them, then closed the door, ran out in a few quick steps, reached the store outside, and pulled the latch.
"When I was making a piano, I was most afraid of being disturbed, so I closed the door." Liu Daquan said, "Master Zhao, what advice do you have for visiting the piano shop? Do you want to buy a piano?"
"Liu Daquan, don't come here to mock me, and don't pretend to be confused." The person who came was Zhao Jinyin! Behind him, a puppet soldier with a gun on his back stood there.
Zhao Jinyin's face was full of dissatisfaction: "My coffin is just about to be painted. The carpenter said that the varnish you have here is the best primer. Give me what you have!"
Hearing what Zhao Jinyin said, Qin Baoshan, who was hiding inside, suddenly showed a smiling face, Nima, the enemy's road is narrow! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
