Chapter 54 Accepting Apprentices
"Your image is almost a problem."
Jing Shizhen looked Su Xiaofan up and down, then shook his head.
Su Xiaofan always puts comfort first in his clothes.
The weather in Yanjing is quite hot now. He wears a T-shirt costing tens of dollars, a pair of sweatpants, and sneakers of a brand he doesn’t know. hundred dollars.
"Old Liu, come here."
Jing Shizhen called shopkeeper Liu, pointed to Su Xiaofan, and said, "Bring me some clothes, it's similar to him."
Jingxintang’s work clothes are the double-breasted long gowns, available in various models. Shopkeeper Liu quickly brought out a navy blue one.
"Neiliansheng is next to him, go buy a pair of cloth shoes by yourself." Jing Shizhen pointed outside.
"Huh? Uncle Jing, don't you cover everything?"
Su Xiaofan smiled cheekily.
"Success, I'll just give you half of your appearance fee later on."
Jing Shizhen smiled happier than Su Xiaofan.
"Okay, I'll go buy it myself."
How much is a pair of shoes, Su Xiaofan can figure it out.
Not to mention, Su Xiaofan seemed to be several years older when he stepped on cloth shoes with laminated soles and wore a navy blue double-breasted gown.
"Well, if you get some glasses and wear them, you will look a bit like a cultural person."
Jing Shizhen looked at Su Xiaofan, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "You and I will go to Yanjing Terrace in the afternoon."
"Isn't it starting tomorrow?"
Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, he wanted to continue shopping for some antiques in the afternoon.
After deciding to open an antique shop, Su Xiaofan will change his previous thinking.
He was thinking of picking up seven or eight leaks before, and then he will take it slowly.
But if you open an antique shop, it will be different. The more authentic products, the better.
As long as it’s not stolen goods or non-circulating cultural relics, no one cares about the origin of those antiques. If it were you, would you tell others the channel you purchased them from?
"Interview, understand?"
Jing Shizhen stood up and said, "I just recommend you to go, the people from Yanjing TV have the final say on whether it will work..."
"There is still such a thing."
"What's the matter? Scared?"
"Hey, Uncle Jing, I have nothing else but to be bold."
Su Xiaofan rolled up the sleeves of his gown, "I was twelve years old and I rode a bike over the graveyards alone. I have never been afraid of anything in my life."
"Oh? Are you not afraid of a ghost crawling out of that messy grave?"
Jing Shizhen was taken aback when he heard the words, he really didn't know about Su Xiaofan's experiences.
"The male ghost twisted his head off and kicked it as a ball."
Su Xiaofan curled his lips, "The female ghost depends on how she looks? She looks good and takes her home to warm her bed."
"Just blow it up, kid."
Jing Shizhen had a look of disbelief, there are many people who are good at Mr. Ye, and they say it nicely, but when they really come, they are discouraged.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Brother Gang, the last time I saw that ghost hit a wall, I didn't break it."
Su Xiaofan is telling the truth, he is naturally courageous, or he has a good psychological quality.
Not to mention being mischievous when I was young, when I was in junior high school, I fought with my classmates in the town and asked my parents to deal with it.
Su Xiaofan rode his bicycle and took the silly second uncle from the village to school.
In the end, it was the teacher who invited the silly second uncle to have a meal before sending him away, because Su Xiaofan told the silly second uncle to take him to a restaurant in the town.
Growing up so big, Su Xiaofan has never been afraid of anyone, he respects his elders, but it has nothing to do with fear.
"Then why did you throw the Yin stone?"
When Jing Shizhen thought of this, she felt angry.
"I'm afraid of affecting my sister."
Su Xiaofan came here as soon as he opened his mouth. In the past few years, he has done nothing else in the antique market, just practicing his words.
"Don't be poor, let's go, if the other side agrees, you have to take a few promotional photos."
Jing Shizhen walked out, he had already arranged a car just now.
"Xiaofan, when you go to the TV station, just say you are my apprentice."
When approaching Yanjing Terrace, Jing Shizhen suddenly spoke.
"Uncle Jing, are you kidding, or is it true?
Now I’m not happy to be a child, and my age is not suitable..."
Hearing Jing Shizhen's words, the smile on Su Xiaofan's face restrained.
Su Xiaofan could tell that Jing Shizhen's words were not casual, but serious.
Moreover, he declared that he was Su Xiaofan's master in public. Leaving nothing else aside, the name of master and apprentice cannot be changed.
It was precisely because of this that Su Xiaofan was a little surprised.
The Antique Shop inherits traditional culture and attaches great importance to accepting apprentices. It is really the kind of teacher for one day and father for life.
That is to say, in modern times, the admission of apprentices in antique shops has been simplified a lot.
If it was placed before liberation, the apprentice brought by the shopkeeper of the antique shop would first have to work for the shopkeeper for free for three years.
The three-year work is not just working in the store.
Anything in the master's house, including washing, cooking, and washing the urinal, the apprentice has to do, and he only cares about the food and has no money to pay. At this time, he is usually called a disciple.
In the past three years, the apprentice has finished working and has been promoted from apprentice to apprentice before the master begins to teach skills. This teaching is also very particular.
Usually the master will not teach by hand, the apprentices have to listen more and watch more, and the master will only remind a few words when it is critical.
After another 3578 years, according to the level of the apprentice's own learning, he can become a teacher.
The apprenticeship mentioned here is just the mastery of crafts, but you still have to work with the master, and usually work for five or ten years for nothing before you can go out and start your own business.
So when Su Xiaofan heard that Jing Shizhen asked him to call him Master, he immediately asked.
Su Xiaofan has never eaten Jing Shizhen's meals, and Jing Shizhen has never taught himself a craft, this master's name is a bit misleading.
Of course, Su Xiaofan also understands in his heart.
Calling this master is very beneficial to him, but Su Xiaofan still doesn't have the habit of taking advantage of others.
"You are brave and careful, but you are suitable to learn some things from me."
Jing Shizhen obviously didn't come up with it temporarily, compared to Zheng Dagang, Su Xiaofan is more pleasing to his eyes.
After these few contacts, Jing Shizhen discovered that Su Xiaofan has a good grasp of things.
Sometimes it looks shameless, but in fact Su Xiaofan's words and deeds have not crossed the line and will not attract people's disgust.
Just like when Su Xiaofan bought meteorites before, bargaining was a business.
But after negotiating the price, when Su Xiaofan didn't have enough money to pay the IOU, he didn't say a word of nonsense.
Didn't ask Jing Shizhen to erase a fraction of the 300,000 yuan just because it was a big deal of more than 16 million yuan.
Of course, if Su Xiaofan brings it up, Jing Shizhen will also erase the odds for him, but the matter of recruiting apprentices will be gone.
"Uncle Jing, have you accepted students before?"
Su Xiaofan asked: "If I become your student, what can I learn? What else do I need to do?"
Apprenticeship and apprenticeship are also two-way choices.
Su Xiaofan will not be a teacher because of Jing Shizhen's fame, he will be able to gain fame in the future, he wants to see if he can learn something from Jing Shizhen.
"Confiscated, I taught some people how to identify antiques, those students who are not my students..."
Jing Shizhen shook his head, he knew what Su Xiaofan was thinking, and immediately said: "Don't think so much, kid, I accept you as an apprentice, because there are some things I don't want to lose, and I want to find someone to pass them on, and I don't want you to come and give them to me." I work for nothing."
"Okay, learn something from Uncle Jing, that's my luck."
Su Xiaofan thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Uncle Jing, if you really think I'm suitable, then I'll take you as my teacher!"
The benefits of worshiping teachers and respecting uncles are obvious.
Su Xiaofan himself was born in Yeluzi, now he relies on the repair system to tell the truth from the fake, but he can't say one, two, three.
But from Uncle Jing, Su Xiaofan can systematically learn the theoretical knowledge of antique appraisal.
In this way, Su Xiaofan can make up for his shortcomings.
What's more, with Uncle Jing's reputation in the antique shop, as long as he plays the banner of Uncle Jing's disciple, it will be difficult for him to open an antique shop in the future to do bad business!
Su Xiaofan is not so pedantic, since he will become the disciple of Uncle Jing in the future, with the resources of such a great Buddha, why not use it.
"Let's not talk about apprenticeship or anything, we'll talk about it after this appraising program is over."
Jing Shizhen laughed, he was in a good mood.
Jing Shizhen also noticed Su Xiaofan's hesitation just now.
The kid in front of him is not someone who rushes up as soon as he hears something good, he can think.
Some people may think that individuals can think, and those who cannot think are not human.
But what Jing Shizhen values is Su Xiaofan's thinking at the threshold of major interests. This kind of thinking excludes interests.
Given Jing Shizhen's reputation in the antique shop, he dared to say that as long as he proposes to accept an apprentice, any person whose seniority is lower than himself will agree without hesitation. He would not ask questions like Su Xiaofan.
While the two were talking, Yanjing Terrace had already arrived.
When entering Yanjing Terrace, you need to check your documents, because you have contacted in advance, and a staff member came to greet you.
It is said to be an interview, but it is actually a communication with the director of the program group.
Jing Shizhen didn't say much, and kept observing silently.
Jing Shizhen discovered that, just as Su Xiaofan himself said, he is really not stage frightened.
Whether meeting Yanjing TV’s leaders or directors with decision-making power, Su Xiaofan always talks with eloquence, showing a maturity that doesn’t match his age.
But Jing Shizhen didn't know that Su Xiaofan regarded them as customers in the antique market, and the objects he sold were only antiques instead of himself.
Seeing that the director and Yanjing TV leaders were very satisfied, Jing Shizhen revealed Su Xiaofan's identity as her apprentice in a timely manner.
The director of the program group is a person in the antique business, so he naturally knows Jing Shizhen's importance in the antique business.
So upon hearing about Su Xiaofan's identity, the director of the program made a decision on the spot to assign Su Xiaofan's identity as a guest.
Seeing that it was still early, the director called some people in and took a group of promotional photos for Su Xiaofan.
Su Xiaofan, who was calm and composed just now, was a little disgraced by this group of photos.
When he walked out of Yanjing Terrace, Su Xiaofan was still wiping the foundation on his face vigorously with facial tissue filled with mineral water.
It’s almost New Year’s Eve, I’m sad, but I don’t have a thousand monthly tickets yet
