Chapter 18 18, Poor Doctor
After achieving her goal, Ye Jiaorui smiled and said, "Then call Senior Sister Luo quickly..."
"Tsk." Fu Yan leaned forward and played with the printed lighter with his long fingers, "Since our Zhizhi has agreed, she will definitely help with this. Isn't it a good idea for Miss Ye to urge her like this?"
Sheng Congzhi added, "Since you don't trust me so much, then forget it."
Ye Jiaorui's teeth were almost broken.
Sheng Wanrou apologized and said, "It's okay, Jiaojiao is just too impatient. After all, that painting is very important to Dongting..."
"Since it's so important," Fu Yan said thoughtfully, "our family Zhizhi has helped so much, what's the benefit?"
The smile on Sheng Wanrou's face almost failed to stop.
Ye Jiaorui's eyes widened even more, as if she didn't expect Fu Yan to be so... shameless!
Quiet indoors.
After a stalemate for several seconds, Sheng Wanrou finally said, "Let's do this. The car Zhizhi had before broke down. I'll buy you a new one later, okay?"
"Don't bother so much." Sheng Congzhi curled her lips, "That car is too old. In fact, I don't like it. Just give me the money for the car and I will choose it myself."
**
Back in the car, Ye Jiaorui started to lose her temper, "Mom, look at her, she's going too far! She obviously did it on purpose. She smashed the car herself, and she actually asked you for money to buy a new car..."
Sheng Wanrou was forced to bleed, and her heart was beating with anger.
After letting the driver drive, she sighed, "Forget it, let's just help them."
Relief?
Ye Jiaorui: "Is Dr. Fu very poor?"
"If he was rich, how could he ask for that benefit from us?" Sheng Wanrou asked, "He drives a domestic car. As for this villa, it must have been given by the Fu family. He is just an illegitimate son and has no inheritance rights from the Fu family.
And as a doctor, how much money can you make in a month?"
It turned out that he was just a poor doctor! Ye Jiaorui felt more comfortable.
As for the villa.
Sheng Congzhi said, "I'm going upstairs first."
As he spoke, he stood up...
"Wait a minute." Fu Yan moved his fingers down and held her waist, "Do you still know the cultural relic restorer?"
Sheng Congzhi's body tensed slightly, "...I knew him when I studied painting before."
Fu Yan nodded, "What about Uncle Lu? He also studied painting and met him?"
Sheng Congzhi asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Just asking." After saying that, Fu Yan let out a low laugh and pinched her waist with his fingers, "Your husband just helped you ask for the money for a car. I want to ask you a few words. As for being so disrespectful?"
Patience? Huh?"
Sheng Congzhi took a deep breath, then stood up suddenly, "Thank you."
After saying that, he quickly turned around and went upstairs.
Fu Yan sat there, with a pair of red phoenix eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
This girl...
Running so fast?
Put your pants up and don't recognize anyone?

Fu Dongting soon received a call from Luo Yuanjiu.
"Mr. Fu, senior sister called me. She can repair your painting, but there is a condition."
"What conditions?"
"She wants a ten percent commission."
In the art world, good restorers are hard to come by, so the more powerful the restorer, the more expensive the commission will be.
Fu Dongting had already had this hunch, and he agreed readily, "No problem."
…
The next day, early in the morning, Fu Dongting sent the painting to Luo Mansion.
Looking at the deserted store, "Senior Sister Luo, are you coming today?"
"I'm not sure about this." Luo Yuanjiu smiled, "Senior Sister, she has always been like a dragon, but don't worry, since she has agreed, she will definitely restore the painting."
"Oh well."
"Mr. Fu." Luo Yuanjiu handed over a contract, "This is a commission contract. Take a look at it and sign it if you have no problem."
Fu Dongting was speechless, "Do you still want to sign?"
Luo Yuanjiu continued to laugh, "This is what Senior Sister ordered. Don't worry, the terms above are very clear: after the painting is restored, she will charge a commission of 10% of the value of the painting; if you are not satisfied,
She will also compensate you double the price of the painting."
It does sound worthwhile.
Fu Dongting thought for a moment, then signed his name with a pen.
Shortly after he left, Sheng Congzhi came to the store.
"Senior Sister!" Luo Yuanjiu came forward, "Mr. Fu has signed the contract and the painting has been sent to the restoration room upstairs."
Sheng Congzhi was very satisfied, "Well done."
…
Repair interior.
"Luo Shen Fu" is placed flat on the square table with four corners.
On the table on the other side are various repair tools: workbench, mounting board, brown brush, book cutter, bamboo scraper...etc.
A dazzling array of items, everything is available.
Among them, there is a whole row of complementary color brushes alone.
Restoring ancient calligraphy and paintings requires four processes: washing, unmounting, leak repairing, and full coloring.
Sheng Congzhi tied her long curly hair into a ball, put on her work clothes, and started working!
First dip a brush into hot water, apply it little by little on the stained area, let the water slowly penetrate downward, and then use a sheep belly towel to suck out the dirty water inside.
The work of restoring calligraphy and paintings is very grueling. It requires full concentration when doing it. Patience and meticulousness are the most important.
In addition, you need to have a solid foundation in painting, and even master the knowledge of various history, literature, and even physics, chemistry and other materials and materials...
For example, this painting "Ode to the Goddess of Luo" uses mineral colors, so the water volume and temperature need to be strictly controlled, otherwise the image quality will be easily damaged.
Luo Yuanjiu stood aside, not daring to disturb her at all.
But I soon discovered——
Although the senior sister is young and has not been exposed to this job for almost four years, she is still very skillful in doing it, very sophisticated and calm.
…
In this way, for the next five days, Sheng Congzhi canceled all activities and worked in the store every day.
On the afternoon of the last day, the entire painting was completed in full color.
Luo Yuanjiu looked at the brand-new "Fu of the Goddess of Luo" and was astonished, "Senior Sister, you are so amazing. It's as if it was newly painted."
"Call Fu Dongting and ask him to pick up the painting tomorrow."
"Senior Sister." Luo Yuanjiu was curious, "Can I ask you a question?"
"explain."
"Why did you suddenly agree to repair this painting again? Just to get more of the commission?"
Sheng Congzhi did not deny it, "Of course, the more money, the better."
Luo Yuanjiu: "..."
"By the way." Sheng Congzhi reminded, "Tell Fu Dongting that the commission will be paid after he finishes the auction."
"auction?"
Sheng Congzhi smiled but said nothing.
Two days later, there will be a charity dinner in Yuncheng. If the guess is correct, Fu Dongting will trade this painting.
