Manor Romance

Chapter 75 Silk Painting
What is displayed on the screen is an ancient painting, which is painted on silk. After years of washing, the paint on it has almost fallen off, which is very old, but it is still well preserved, and the outline is still clearly identifiable. Yunli couldn't tell the exact year.

The content in the silk painting is very rich, and it can be roughly judged that it is a celebration scene. In an empty hall, people are singing and dancing. The long tables around are full of various foods, and some common fruits can be discerned vaguely.The most central position of the silk painting is the main table, and the most conspicuous one is a woman in a Chinese dress, who is much taller than the others to show her lofty status. Women in Chinese clothes are worshiped as gods.

Judging from the structure of the main hall and the strange costumes of the people, Yunli can tell that the scene depicted in this silk painting does not belong to any dynasty in our country. The unique product, the story in it is intriguing.

"How, what can you see?" Wang Yuyao asked after Yun Li finished looking at the silk painting.

"Although the year can't be seen, it is certain that the content depicted in the silk painting is exotic, and it should be the scene in the southwest region in ancient times. The guys on this plate should be jackfruit, which was only here in ancient times. people will grow this fruit."

Yun Li expressed his opinion while gesticulating with his fingers, and finally focused on the woman in fine clothes in the center of the silk painting, and continued: "In order to show respect for this woman, the person who drew the picture purposely scaled her body according to the proportions. Zoom in and draw, from the clothing point of view, they look like a tribe, this woman's status is higher than the leader, the most interesting thing is that her hairstyle is a unique high bun in the Tang Dynasty, which is recorded in many pictures of ladies , only high-class women can comb, this person's identity is very unusual."

"The southwestern region in ancient times corresponds to the Southeast Asian countries now. Their ancestors lived in this area thousands of years ago, and then slowly expanded around, forming the current pattern." After seeing the silk paintings, After listening to Yunli's explanation, Lu Ci couldn't help but said that she was an excellent student in the Department of History, and she had this knowledge at her fingertips, and she was also very interested in silk paintings.

Yunli could see the point, Wang Yuyao wasn't surprised at all, but Lu Ci's performance made her eyes shine. Although she made jokes for a long time, she still couldn't figure out the relationship between Yunli and Lu Ci. Lu Ci's situation is even more ignorant, but now it seems that this glamorous woman is not just a manor employee.

"Didn't you have been looking for her before? The woman in the silk painting is probably the one you are looking for." Wang Yuyao thought for a while before regaining consciousness and explaining.

"She is Princess Gexian?" After seeing the silk painting, Yun Li already had some clues, and now that she was confirmed by Wang Yuyao, she couldn't help but asked anxiously.

Seeing Yunli's joyful and eager look, Wang Yuyao did not dampen his interest, and said frankly: "Yes or no, I dare not guarantee that this painting was taken from Mr. Ren. I will talk to him about it." Thinking of this allusion, he showed me this silk painting, although the original one is there, but this silk painting is Mr. Ren's favorite, so I couldn't ask him for it, so I took this photo."

"You elder, did you mention the origin of this painting, or the past about Princess Gexian?" Yun Li continued to ask.

This old man, Wang Yuyao had mentioned to him before, is one of her elders, with a lot of knowledge, especially fond of collecting antiques, and has a deep relationship with his father, Wang Chengyuan, so he is not a simple person.

Wang Yuyao spread his hands, and said helplessly: "He knows, it is similar to what you said before, this silk painting has a little history, it is said that it was first discovered in a Buddhist temple in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and later due to urban development , this Buddhist temple was forced to move, and most of the items inside were sold off, and this silk painting changed hands several times, and was finally met by Mr. Ren, who bought it from a foreigner."

Ever since he learned about Princess Gexian's deeds, Yun Li deduced that she also possessed similar abilities to himself. If he could find the relics of Princess Gexian, he might be able to peek into some secrets. big effect.

However, this Princess Gexian was a person thousands of years ago, so it is not easy to find clues related to her, but Yun Li does not want to miss any hope.Just like this time, the woman in this silk painting is very likely Princess Gexian herself. Although her appearance and shape are definitely not as depicted in the silk painting, from the outline of the lines, one can still appreciate The unique charm of this silk painting woman is compassionate to the world, mourning but not hurting, which is very consistent with the Princess Gexian that Yun Li knows.

Lu Ci didn't know about Yunli's pursuit of Princess Gexian. Although the two can talk now and live in the same building, facing each other day and night, most of the time, they are doing their own things , not disturbing each other, but based on her understanding of Yunli, it's rare for him to be so concerned about things. It seems that Princess Gexian is very important to Yunli, but she can't help much.

"What are you thinking about? Two living beauties are standing in front of you, but you are only thinking about the person in the silk painting, isn't it too disrespectful to us." Seeing Yun Li frowning in thought , Lu Ci was also wandering around, completely ignoring himself, and Wang Yuyao expressed his dissatisfaction softly.

"Um, sorry, bad idea, this picture is very useful to me, can you make a copy for me later?" Yun Li apologized after recovering.

Wang Yuyao flattened her lips, and said, "Take it casually. If you want to see the real thing, I can also introduce you to it. Although Mr. Ren has a weird temper, in my opinion, you, like my dad, should be able to If you like him, if you want to know anything, you can talk to him face to face."

Yun Li thought about it for a while, nodded his thanks and said, "Thank you very much, I must visit his old man's house when I have the opportunity, and I will inevitably trouble you to introduce him."

"Hehe, it's too early to say thank you. The silk painting is the first thing. I have another thing to say. I'll give you a chance to guess." Wang Yuyao said with a smile.

Yunli made several guesses according to his words, but still couldn't figure it out. In the end, Wang Yuyao came up with a suggestion: "In a short time, there will be earth-shaking changes here in the Southwest, and changes will become the main theme. Opportunities and crises coexist. As for what to do, I don’t need to say more.”

"Could it be that the country intends to focus on the development of the southwest region?" Yunli came to ask for confirmation after Wang Yuyao asked.

Wang Yuyao nodded heavily, and explained: "It's not a plan, it's already on the work schedule, but due to some reasons, it hasn't been announced to the outside world, and some preliminary projects are already in preparation, I believe there will be soon Regarding the relevant news, those who know the internal situation are already gearing up to put their focus on this land that is about to take off."

No matter where Wang Yuyao got the news, since she told herself so seriously, Yunli has no reason to doubt: "The coastal areas, the old industrial areas in the Northeast, and the great development of the West are now falling here in the Southwest. It is logical, not to mention the current global economy is weak, if you want to explore emerging markets, these countries in the surrounding Southeast Asia are indeed a good choice.”

"The industrial foundation here is very poor, the transportation is underdeveloped, and the human resources are not concentrated, so it is unlikely to build an industrial base here." Lu Ci also opened his mouth to analyze.

"I don't know the specific plan, but it should be in the direction of trade. The Southeast Asian market needs our industrial products, and we also need their high-quality agricultural products. In any case, this is a win-win choice." Wang Yuyao replied road.

"If it's in this direction, those large trade zones on the border should be the first places to be transformed, and maybe new trade zones will be opened up, which is indeed a rare opportunity." Yunli said thoughtfully.

"Probably like this. Several new main roads are already under construction, but the outside world doesn't know where they will be connected. My dad's company is also focusing on this. If you need help, don't be shy to ask. Although We are not a few hundred strong, but we still have some influence. For this reason, many traditional customs here in the Southwest will die out with development. During this period, several of our project teams have almost traveled all over the nearby Counties and towns, how many can be recorded." Wang Yuyao sighed.

This news is both good and bad for Yunli, and the construction plan of the manor needs to be adjusted accordingly, but he can get the news in advance, and he has enough time to plan.Then they talked about a lot of topics, and they didn't go back to their rooms until late at night to rest. For Wang Yuyao's selfless help, Yunli has nothing to repay Wang Yuyao for the time being.

Early the next morning, Yang Dong and Zhou Wenhao drove to Xiaolushan. The distance from the county center to here is not close. It seems that they set off before dawn. They felt relieved when they saw that Wang Yuyao was safe and sound. .

The work in Luzhen has been completed, and Wang Yuyao and his team have to rush to the next location. In fact, they found a very suitable guide before they came to Shan County. come with me.When he came to Luzhen this time, Wang Yuyao mainly wanted to meet Yunli and explain the two things properly. As for the matter of silk painting, he had to find another opportunity to talk about it. Send them away from Xiaolu Mountain.

Although he has heard about the development, Yunli will not change his original intention of building the manor, but there are some plans that need to be implemented in advance, and the first thing on his schedule is Spotted Deer Mountain.
