Chapter 336 The first movement: Awakening Poem (13): The Sound of the Piano
The owner of the piano shop was faintly beaming with joy.

He can swear to God that although he likes the smell of money, he has never done any dishonest business of selling fake goods.

That is to say, the publicity is a bit exaggerated, and the price tag is a bit inflated, but for things like the transaction price, a slight cut is acceptable.

Generally speaking, I have the confidence not to be afraid of real experts. The higher the customer's requirements and the higher the level of matching, the more I will earn.

Luna stared intently at Fan Ning's movement of picking the piano, and her belief in dying generously became more and more firm in her eyes.

But being afraid is really being afraid.

The boss leaned forward in the next moment, and showed a heartfelt and admiring smile.

"This gentleman has a good eye. He picked the most representative models of each price range all the way, and the third one was the most expensive piano in the store!"

The most, the most expensive? ... The little girl held her breath in fright and pricked up her ears.

Fanning reached forward and plucked a red-brown string.

The material panel of the guitar is divided into three grades from high to low. The best is the "full solid xylophone" with the best resonance effect, that is, the entire body is made of a whole piece of solid wood, which is not a bright spot in high-end guitars. , it belongs to the bottom line, basically the price of advanced models already has this kind of workmanship.

"Don't you need to put the box first?" The boss was a little strange, but it was not a big problem. He picked up the piano that had been put away.

The figure that once made me quite confident, but now I have cashed in the gift of 50 pounds and bought a 100-pound guitar, only 10 pounds left!

"Your piano is quite cost-effective."

The music stopped abruptly after only about twenty bars.

"8 pounds, this piano is 8 pounds..."

"Mr. Shopkeeper, can I sell it for 90 pounds?"

There is a seedling in a pot in the shop, and the sun shines on it through the skylight.

"This, this is..."

How much he hopes that the customer is at least an advanced practitioner, after all, he almost thought he was a high-end professional before.

It's just that at this moment, the smile on his face is uglier than crying.

The price is probably in the single digits...

He gently stroked the extraordinary purple string, and then slowly stretched it, with a somewhat absent-minded tone.

"Mr. Shopkeeper is really a good man." Luna secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "In this way, I still have 20 pounds left, and there is always hope that I can slowly save it back..."

Before quickly catching up with Fan Ning's pace, he did not forget to take a look at the girl dressed as the little benefactor.

The boss felt a little sour in his nose, sadness is not the problem, the biggest problem is the joy and sorrow.

The boss's flamboyant introductions are endless.

The boss, the helper, and Luna followed his movements and watched.

The boss was overjoyed and took off the most expensive violin in the store.

Fanning walked to the cash register, pulled a woven wicker chair, sat down on it, and began to sway leisurely.

Thoughts from the past turned into hazy dreams, rising and shattering one by one.

A work full of strong oriental mysticism has an unknown and profound fascination for the audience in this world.

The helper in the store has prepared the piano case, and the boss put the high-quality, gorgeous and high-end guitar on the counter, and then waited with his hands behind his back with a serious expression.

This order is worth at least a month.

Everything is as if baked by the sun, so warm that it makes people feel dizzy, and makes people eager to go back to that dream.

He thinks he is a person with a bottom line, and the bottom price in his heart is around 60 pounds.

"The whole solid wood board is made of the famous Misin rosewood. Its tone is warm and full, fragrant and blue, especially the high-pitched area is extremely sweet and charming... Equipped with fox lily holy silver frets, surrounded by gemstones, elephant bone piano pillows and gold-plated tuners, the classical guitar master Tone of the last century spoke highly of its manufacturers”

The three of them were distracted——

just this prelude
Several people were dragged into the boundless darkness and mystery in an instant.

Unexpectedly, after a pass of operation, I finally chose the beginner's piano.

"Ah? I'm talking about that one..." Fanning emphasized again the direction of his hand.

The string-plucking sound suddenly flowed out from under Fan Ning's finger. At first, it sounded like ring fingers, and also seemed to break down chords quickly, but it was neither, but a strange sound with extremely dense and complex layers, but the sound effect was extremely transparent and ethereal. group.

The second is the "single-sided solid xylophone", that is, the front is made of a whole piece of solid wood, and the other back and side panels are made of glued spliced ​​wood;

I don't know how long it took to come back to my senses.

What a generous and wealthy little girl... This is the lightest bargain he has ever seen, and if you cut it, it means you didn't cut it.

Luna felt that her wallet had undergone a roller coaster of changes, which was a little exciting, and a little worried that Mr. Scheler lost his love, but finally she focused on Mr. Scheler's "cost revealing"
"You have a higher profit margin than our chamber of commerce." The little girl glared at the shopkeeper.

"Mr. Scheler must not let me feel that I am reluctant, otherwise the trip will be unpleasant..."

"That..." The boss took off his sunglasses and choked with difficulty, "Sir, the piano you tried just now is obviously that one, that one, and this one..." He was referring to 30 pounds, 50 pounds And advanced or high-end pianos priced at £100.

“Its custom-made models once cost as high as 500-1000 pounds, but now you only need 100 pounds to take them away. Of course, it is a mass-produced model, but it is also handcrafted by the family and has all the excellent functions it should have.”

There was a moment of silence in the air.

And it's the kind that beginners of classical guitar with a little more money will dislike...

As soon as Luna's eyes made contact with Fanning, they immediately changed into a childish smile.

Fanning withdrew his hand in a sigh, and walked straight to the cashier.

Just now the three are all "solid xylophones", but what Fan Ning is referring to now is a "plywood piano" that is the worst!
"Aren't you selling this violin?" Seeing that the boss hadn't replied for so long, Fan Ning felt a little strange.

I feel like you are playing with me! !The boss growled inwardly, but what he actually said was:
"...Sell, sell."

For a market store in a small port city, this quality echelon is really good.

"Ah, don't want it." Luna rushed forward at this moment.

"Mr. Scheler, you should choose the one you like, I have money!" She pouted and looked up at Fanning.

She started looking for money in the satchel.

"Give him 5 pounds." Fanning held the orange-red plywood guitar in his arms.

The helper boy was so shocked that he began to re-examine his wages, and he had the desire to run away after finishing the month.

Luna, who was already clutching banknotes and gold coins, froze.

Fan Ning stopped the strings, stood up slowly, and motioned for Luna, who covered her small mouth, to follow.

"Of course, of course."

Because she could see the guitar that Mr. Scheler was referring to, the wild and unruly workmanship, the crooked texture, and the faintly visible shavings in the piano hole...

"I didn't say I want to buy it?" Fanning looked bewildered.

"No problem." The boss agreed very readily, and the corners of his mouth under the sunglasses rose wildly.

What I'm missing is the profit margin? What I'm missing is the reserve price!The owner of the piano shop had no choice but to defend loudly in his heart, and secretly prayed that the customer's piano skills would improve quickly, so that he could choose an advanced piano as soon as possible.

... 100 pounds, Mr. Scheler, you have dealt with me very hard.Luna felt like crying.

Do you still have business?

The piano shop owner was stunned in place.

Luna plucked up the courage to speak to the back of the boss, trying to make a final struggle.

"There are quite a lot of good pianos in your southern country."

But 50 pounds is not impossible to sell.

"Mr. Shopkeeper, please pass me that guitar." At this moment, Fanning reached out his hand.

"Ding ding dong ding ding dong ding ding dong~"

Just as the boss wanted to reiterate his offer aloud, Fanning yanked the third D string off the guitar with a few "creaks" and then glanced at him:
"The cost is fully calculated at 2 pounds and 10 shillings, and the business can be doubled. Do you want to do it or not?"

Intense dizziness and hallucinations.

The last one is the "plywood piano". The body of the piano is all spliced ​​by leftover materials. Particle board...

Why is it 5 pounds again?

When he came back to his senses again, he felt that the inspiration had risen to the point where he wanted to fall, and the room was filled with rich floral fragrance, full of real champagne.

But the next moment his eyes fell into an even greater dullness.

Italian classical guitar master Carlo Dominicani's masterpiece: "Shepherd Suite" (koyunbaba, Op.19), the fourth movement, Presto.

The exact amount of her small treasury, which earns two gold medals a week and has accumulated more than three figures, is: 2 pounds.

Poor, weak and helpless tone:

Earn double? 100%?

"Do it, do it." The boss was still crying.

The ancient land, the mist at dawn, the vast forest, the awakening of creation, the rushing stream... The music unfolded impromptu, with a deep intoxication, the spiritual desire was to be swallowed by the tranquility, and to be torn apart by the vortex. Different repetitions and changes are tossed and pulled.

He looked at the seedlings, trembling slightly.

Among the branches above, an orange-red fruit with a strange halo emerged.

　Well, I may have to dove for another day. I have been driving too much during the day these days T^T. After the normal update at 11 o’clock tomorrow, the second update will start in the early morning. (Escape

　　In addition, in terms of classical guitar repertoire selection, due to consideration of the connection with later piano and vocal symphonies, and highlighting the "singing" attribute of troubadours, this volume will present more of the "art song" genre, guitar solo (Fingerstyle) is only used as an adjustment, and the proportion will not be too high, but if you have any recommended songs, you can leave a message~
