"It's this place, if I remember correctly, it's here." Li Weian could tell it was Xiao Wu's voice.

Followed by Tang Jun, "It's right here. This yard is full of molds. It's so easy to recognize."

"Here, come in!" Li Wei'an greeted him. He hadn't seen Tang Jun and Xiao Wu for many years, and he felt very cordial when meeting the brothers.

Xiao Wu still respectfully calls Li Wei'an "Master."

When he was called master, Li Wei'an felt ashamed, "It's been many years, so don't call me master, call me brother."

"Then you have to call me master."

"Hahaha, Xiao Wu still has the same personality as before." Li Weian said, inviting the two of them into the house, and then looked into the courtyard, "Xiao Guo...isn't he here?"

Tang Jun said, "I just called him and he said he was busy. But I sent him a seat and he will come if he wants to come."

"Okay, how about waiting for him?"

"Eat first, your pot is stewed." Tang Jun and Li Wei'an were not polite at all. The two were considered buddies, but they were busy with their own affairs over the years. Although the contact was not broken, they rarely contacted each other.

"Okay, don't be polite, I'll get the wine!"

As soon as he sat down and took a few bites, Tang Jun said, "To be honest, Brother An. I really didn't expect it. I thought you would stop doing this business after we broke up, but I didn't expect you to come back now. It's good, Among the four of us, you are the only one who is still doing this."

"After going round and round, I ended up in this business. I asked you to come here this time because I wanted to talk about it. Now there is a carving job for "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". If you are interested, please join us?"

Tang Jun's chopsticks holding the mutton stayed in mid-air. He had long expected that Li Wei'an came to see everyone this time to reunite the sculpture work.It's just that things are different now. Everyone has stopped doing silk sculpture for a long time. Tang Jun wonders, "I'm afraid it's not easy. Now everyone is busy with new careers. If you want to pick it up again, it will take some time to adapt." , I haven’t touched a tool for a long time, I don’t know if my hands are raw or not.”

"If I come here now, will I have to resign from the job I'm doing now?" Xiao Wu said, "My recent performance has been pretty good. I think the company will promote me as the sales manager next month."

Li Wei'an nodded, "What is Xiao Wu doing recently?"

"He is currently engaged in real estate sales, and he is doing pretty well. Xiao Wu has a good personality and is likeable in his words. He is suitable for this job."

"Oh." Li Wei'an didn't know how to speak, so he could only bless, "That's good, just do it well." "Brother An, you asked us to come over and make the sculpture of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" this time. This is a short-term project. Let’s live.”

Li Wei'an said, "It's not short-term. My idea is that after this life, I want everyone to stay in Jinghuafang. Now Jinghuafang is in its infancy, and there are many opportunities in the future. And now Jinghuafang is short of people. You also know that it’s hard to recruit people in this industry right now.”

"Oh, that's the plan." Tang Long picked up a glass of Erguotou and drank half of it. He slowly started to feel drunk, "Then count me as the only one, but I have to practice more on this craft when I go back. At that time, we were the masters of the sculpture workshop. Founded by two people, now you have picked up this business again, and I have become crazy again. I have only been focusing on collecting rent these years, and it’s time to change to a new way."

Tang Long has not done anything to make a living since the dissolution of the sculpture workshop.Because my family lived in the suburbs of Beijing and had two apartments, I rented out the house and lived a life of collecting rent all day long.

Seeing Tang Long's statement, Xiao Wu still insisted on his own idea, "Master Li, I would like to think about it again? In fact, I am not as interested in doing this as I was at first. The current job is very suitable for me. I am in this profession I have been working for several years, from the time we disbanded until now."

"It's okay, it's okay, Xiao Wu. It depends on you that you don't force it. Let's just get together today." Li Wei'an paused for a moment and then said, "Actually, we have experienced impetuousness over the years. I am the same as you. I also want to do something else. But after going back and forth, I still like to make silk figures. Intangible cultural heritage is not something that just anyone can do. We have a craft and don’t want it to go to waste. Especially this paragraph Time and Jinghuafang have come step by step. When each sculpture is recognized, I feel so happy when I look at my work. It can be said that my fighting spirit has been revived in Jinghuafang. . And now, unlike before, the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage needs to be developed in a diversified way. We can all participate in the subsequent original silk figures and training courses."

Xiao Wu didn't speak, and the food in his mouth was no longer delicious, so he simply put down his chopsticks and only cared about drinking.

"It seems that Xiao Guo is not coming, and there is probably no hope for him. If it doesn't work, you can talk to Jinghuafang. Let's go out for a walk. Our relationship over the years, we should look for the previous craftsmen. It's not difficult."

While chatting, Xiao Wu's call came in.When Xiao Wu saw it, he quickly wiped his mouth and picked up the phone. He didn't shy away from it and directly introduced the real estate information to people.

Li Wei'an and Tang Long continued cooking and drinking beside them, silently.

"No, Mr. Lu. Listen to me, we have been talking about this house for a month. Now before signing the contract, you have changed your mind. Are you dissatisfied with the price or something else, you can tell me, I can get you the biggest discount. No... Mr. Lu, I didn't mean that, I can get you..." After about 10 minutes, Xiao Wu hung up the phone and stopped talking.Seeing that his face was not very good, he sat down and said nothing. Li Wei'an would not ask more questions, and he understood why this happened.

Tang Long took this opportunity and said, "Your work doesn't seem to be going well either. Why don't you come over and join us to pick up the silk figures again. At least we can do it together and won't suffer from this cowardice."

Xiao Wu disagreed with what Tang Long said, "If you don't get angry now, just accept it. At least it will be stable every month. To be honest with the two masters, the most important thing for me now is how to make money. I bought a house in my hometown , I have to repay a lot of the loan every month, and I'm afraid I don't have the heart to do it when I pick up the silk figurine."

"Buying a house is also a good thing." Tang Long said, "It can be regarded as fulfilling a dream."

The topic disappeared while we were chatting. Xiao Wu couldn't sit still anymore, so he simply got up and left, "Brother An, the company will have a regular meeting tomorrow, so I'll leave first. I'm sorry."

This was originally a game between four people, but now it has become a game between Li Wei'an and Tang Long. Li Wei'an is indifferent to everything in front of him. After all, he knows that the path everyone chooses now is not what they want, but it must be inevitable. of.
