    Tang Ye had already undressed and gone to bed, hugging the pillow and watching "Tokyo Love Story". Perhaps only with her experience would she cherish the innocence on TV. While she was fascinated by it, she received the call  Wen Liang's call was not from a mobile phone, but from a public phone. It was difficult for him to find the phone booths on the streets that were still open at such a late hour.

    After saying a few words briefly, Tang Ye got up to wash up, came out of the bathroom, walked to the living room, opened the window and felt the temperature outside, and found a purple pure woolen windbreaker from the closet. Guanshan in October was already a bit warm.  The coolness of early autumn.  After driving for more than half an hour, he arrived at a clean but deep alley in Sanqiu District. He parked the car against the five-cornered maple tree on the side of the road. Tang Ye looked around and put his hands in the lap of his windbreaker.  In her pocket, the heels of her fawn leather Martin boots with thin straps clicked on the ground, making a clicking sound. Occasionally, a gust of wind passed by, and a few lavender maple leaves fluttered down from behind her back, freezing the scene on her clothes.  Between the flying corners.

    Taking advantage of the dim street lights in the alley, Tang Ye came to a small iron gate, picked up the tiger head ring on the door and knocked it five times quickly, three slowly, and slowly. The door opened quietly from the inside, waiting for Tang Ye to get out of the way.  Go in.  It closed quietly again.

    It was still the secret private room where we met last time. The wall lamps on the surrounding walls were bright. Wen Liang was sitting on his knees next to the coffee table, holding a brush in his right hand and writing something on the rice paper spread out. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he didn't even raise his head.  He smiled and said, "It's so late. Is it disturbing your rest?"

    The temperature in the room was moderate, and Tang Ye took off his windbreaker.  Hanging on the clothes rack at the door, the pale white short skirt that tightens the waist and covers the hips is exposed, and the slender and undulating figure is clearly visible.

    "No. I'm watching TV at home and it's still early before going to bed!"

    Wen Liang seemed to have completed the work in his hand. He looked at it with satisfaction and waved to Tang Ye: "Come and see, how do you write these words?"

    Tang Ye walked up to him slowly, looked down curiously, and saw eight words written on the paper: The Way of the Saint.  One dragon and one snake.  She has worked as an editor and reporter for a provincial newspaper for many years. Calligraphy is a basic skill, and it is good to be able to read gentle and considerate handwriting.  But although the shape and quality are sufficient, the expression is a little inferior, and it is not a first-rate good calligraphy. He immediately pursed his lips and smiled.  Said: "A little bit of loss is like the disease of a beautiful woman. A bit of loss of integrity is like a broken arm of a strong man!"

    The meaning of this sentence is that if a word is not written well, it is like a beauty who has a bad eye, and a horizontal line is not written well, just like a strong man has a broken arm. Wen Liang laughed and said: "Although I have never heard the words  , but I guess it¡¯s hurting me! You literati criticize when you criticize, and correct when you correct. You have to say it in such a formal way, how can a big boss like me understand it clearly?"

    Tang Ye pretended to be angry and said: "Boss, you are being unreasonable. You asked me and I answered truthfully. Isn't it that I can't listen to offensive words and can only flatter you?"

    Wen Liang is naturally not a coward. Most people who practice calligraphy have read Wang Xizhi's "On Writing Style". It is still controversial whether the author of this famous book is Wang Xizhi, but it is generally believed that it should be a calligraphy theory of the Wang School.  This sentence comes from Chapter 12 of "The Theory of Brushstrokes". Wen Liang understood immediately when he heard it. When he saw Tang Ye making a joke with him for the first time, he felt very interesting. He handed over the brush and replaced it with a piece of rice paper.  Said: "It's just talk, if you don't show some real skills, I'll deduct your salary!"

    Deduction of wages is the only way to deal with Chang Cheng. Wen Liang, the boss, is so lazy that he only wants to succeed with one trick.  However, Tang Ye didn't accept this trick. He rolled his eyes at him and said, "Have you ever paid me a salary?"

    Wen Liang thought about it and said awkwardly: "This is not important anymore. Come on, I see you are acting arrogantly. You must be really capable. Write a few words for me to review!"

    Tang Ye took the brush, glanced at it lightly, and praised: "The Shanlianhu brush from Dai Yuexuan in the capital does not fall apart when you pick it up, and it does not become soft when you lay it down, but it is very valuable!"

    Wen Liang really didn¡¯t understand this. He was slightly startled, pointed to the inkstone next to him, and said, ¡°Experts, where is this from?¡±

    "Thisshould be Tao Inkstone, with a silky texture and a beautiful complexion. What's especially valuable is that it has very good thermal insulation, so it is very popular in the north!"

    Only then did Wen Liang realize that he had previously ordered Cai Lian to get a set of pens, inks, paper and inkstones, but all he got were top-quality goods. It was really hard for him to do it so late and in such a short period of time.

    Cai Lian is the new person in charge of this tea house, and he is actually not a complete newcomer, because he has been stationed in Guanshan with Ye Zhiwei since the establishment of the tea house. During this period, Ye Zhiwei had to take care of Su Hai, and almost all trivial matters were left behind.  on his head.  When the tea house opened, before returning to Suhai, Ye Zhiwei recommended Cai Lian to Wen Liang, so he naturally became the general manager of the tea house, and was also Wen Liang's spy and intelligence leader in Guanshan.

    ¡°For such a person to show such intelligence is actually part of his job!

    "This feelingGood feelings are all good things. When you write ugly words later, you can't complain about the tool!  "

    "Stingy man!" Tang Ye muttered, rolled up his cuffs, his white jade wrists flashed with crystal light spots, and he held the pen and wrote the same eight words like flowing water. While writing, he said: "Ping Wei  Horizontal means horizontal, straight means vertical, uniform means between, dense means boundary, front means end, and force means body!"

    As soon as she finished speaking, her hand stopped writing, and when she spoke words of gentleness and kindness, her bones were strong and exuded masculine beauty, while Tang Ye's words were concise and delicate, with a soft and elegant meaning, but just like the Zhong she recited just now.  As mentioned in Yao's Twelve Meanings of Calligraphy, Wen Liang's calligraphy has no sharp edges and is a little draggy, which is indeed a bit inferior!

    "Good words!"

    Wen Liang admired it, put the rice paper to one side and waited for the ink to dry, and said, "How about just giving this word to me? I'll frame it tomorrow and hang it in this room to add some taste to me."

    This is a place where guests and friends are warmly welcomed. If it were really hung up, wouldn¡¯t everyone else be able to see the words I wrote?  Although she couldn't sign the signature, and it was impossible for unrelated people to know that it was made by her, Tang Ye was still a little inexplicably shy. This kind of mood was a rare experience for her. She made a gesture to snatch it and said: "No  OK, I¡¯ll tear it up now.¡±

    "Don't!" Wen Liang crossed his hands, blocking her way.  He yelled: "I'll give you money, why don't you just give me money?"

    Tang Ye was angry and funny when he saw Wen Liang acting like a rogue.  Said: "Okay, you make an offer!"

    Wen Liang asked tentatively: "Fifty cents?"

    Tang Yeliu frowned, her beautiful eyes turned into ice, Wen Liang hurriedly stretched out five fingers and said: "Five hundred thousand!"

    Five hundred thousand?

    How many works by famous contemporary calligraphers can this price buy? Tang Ye deliberately teased him and said with a smile: "Okay. The deal is done, bring me the money!"

    Wen Liang licked his face and said, "I owe it now, and I will pay it when I have money."

    Tang Ye stared at him.  As if to see how thick-skinned this person was, Wen Liang quickly put on an innocent and cute expression, making her smile like a flower blooming on the earth.

    Since the two of them have known each other.  From testing each other.  When they get to know each other, they usually talk about work mostly and rarely chat casually. They are gentle and considerate of Tang Ye's past. They pay attention to propriety and scale in their words. If she hadn't seen her in a good mood tonight, she wouldn't have been so casual.  But occasionally getting along in such a relaxed and comfortable way is also the only way to maintain loyalty and friendship.  After all, women are emotional animals, and they only value both kindness and power.  It is not enough to guarantee that it will remain unchanged for a long time!

    After the small talk, we started talking about business. Wen Liang first told Tang Ye everything that happened tonight in detail, and then asked seriously: "Do you think it is feasible?"

    Tang Ye¡¯s mind was spinning rapidly and she didn¡¯t answer for a moment because she had too much information to digest, and she had to find the flaws and loopholes in the entire operation in an instant, fill in the gaps for Wen Liang, and improve the plan.

    Wen Liang waited quietly. After an unknown amount of time, Tang Ye suddenly raised his head and asked, "I have a question!"

    "speak!"

    "I remember the last time, it was also in this place. The boss told me personally that Gao Tianfang had come over and promised to help us, right?"

    "Yes, this is the case!"

    "But in tonight's plan, Gao Tianfang will become an abandoned son. Once he is bitten by Liu Jiang, he will become the target of the Discipline Inspection Commission, and then report Chen Zongzhi In this way, not to mention his career, it will be personal freedom.  Not being protected is a choice between two things"

    Wen Liang's eyes slowly narrowed, and he said softly, "You mean, not only did I lie to him and take advantage of him, but I also completely ruined his life?"

    Tang Ye was startled, noticing Wen Liang's expression, he felt a little fearful in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "That's not what I meant"

    It doesn't matter whether Tang Ye means this or not, but the important thing is that, like Gao Tianfang, she is also a member of Wen Liang's subordinates. Although one is voluntary and the other is forced, the nature is different.  What a fundamental difference.  Today Gao Tianfang has no use value, or after being squeezed out of all value, and then cruelly abandoned by Wen Liang, if tomorrow, Tang Ye has no value, will he suffer the same fate?

    ??The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Especially for Tang Ye, an insecure person, even if she can't think of this now, it won't be long before suspicion and fear begin to sprout in her heart!

    Wen Liang sighed and said: "Tang Ye, you will know what kind of person I am in the future. Now I need you to do one thing. Take this calligraphy to see Yin Qingquan tomorrow and ask him to criticize and correct him. It's best  If you can copy these eight characters, give me another calligraphy painting!"

    Tang Ye felt aggrieved,She really didn't have such thoughts, but since Wen Liang didn't listen to her explanation, he silently said in his heart, you will naturally know what kind of person I am in the future, and then he calmed down and listened to his instructions carefully.

    Seeing him hand the earliest calligraphy to him, Tang Ye suddenly understood Wen Liang¡¯s intention:

    The way of the saint is one dragon and one snake!

    This is a quote from Dongfang Shuo's "Book of Commandments" in the Han Dynasty. Wen Liang used this to express his goodwill to Yin Qingquan, who had excellent calligraphy.  Please give him calligraphy treasures, which means that he lowers his attitude and regards himself as a junior, and also means asking the elders to give guidance to the juniors; and these eight words mean that one should act in accordance with the times and move with the situation, and it is to advise Yin Qingquan not to  The metaphor of being rigid and unreasonable and supporting the attack on Chen Zongzhi also fits the word commandment in "The Book of Commandments"!

    Seemingly simple things actually contain a lot of knowledge. Unless you have been honed in society for many years and have a clear understanding of the world, it would be difficult to do it so easily and without leakage.

    Tang Ye folded the words, but thought in his heart, if such a person is a big boss, who else in the world can be called an elegant scholar?  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
