Chapter 1673: Throat Dry? Let Me Moisturize It For You!

~3 min read 593 words

Having said that much.

Qin Feng cleared his throat.

He looked as if he wanted to speak but held back.

He coughed and said, "My throat is a bit dry."

After all, the audio in the livestream room was already off.

Reba was perhaps too curious.

She quickly said, "Let me moisten it for you!"

On this side.

Da Mimi had already covered her ears.

She complained, "Yi Tuo, you two, stop being so shameless; there's an outsider like me here."

Yang Mi then said, "I'll go get boiling water; Reba, go get the tea leaves."

In this Huizhou-style courtyard.

Master Li had left Qin Feng a jar of Huangshan Maofeng.

Although it was authentic, top-grade, pre-Qingming tea tips.

To Qin Feng's careful tasting.

The tea aroma was not as good as Grandpa Zhang's off-brand tea~

Perhaps "Grandpa's Brewed Tea" came with its own tea-fragrance buff!

Glug glug~

Two cups of tea went down.

Qin Feng remained unhurried.

After all, there was nothing to do today.

No need to rush everything.

Yang Mi complained, "If I couldn't beat you, I'd really give you a beating!"

Reba nodded in agreement, "Me too!"

Qin Feng said, "Don't listen to her nonsense; your good sister is trying to sow discord between us as a couple."

Reba puffed her cheeks and said, "Speak up, speak up! Stop talking nonsense."

Perhaps because she and Qin Feng had gone to Northeast China twice before.

When Reba got anxious.

Her Northeast accent came out from the stress OvO!

Only then did Qin Feng begin to tell the story in detail: "The thing is like this... Previously.

The Master Li Erke Qin Feng mentioned.

Was actually not previously engaged in the 'Xipi lacquerware' industry.

As early as the late 1990s.

After he came into contact with Xipi lacquerware.

He fell in love with this intangible cultural heritage craft.

He then closed his antique shop, Gu Jin.

He became a disciple to learn the art, studying with great diligence.

For the following decades, Master Li worked exclusively on matters related to Xipi lacquerware, until today.

But due to the audience and market for traditional Chinese crafts.

They are actually not as popular as people imagine.

Time and again, Master Li's lacquerware business did not go smoothly.

Hearing Qin Feng narrate up to this point.

Reba and Yang Mi could roughly guess Master Li's situation afterward.

At the same time, they also somewhat connected the dots.

As to why Master Li would sell the courtyard his master gave him.

Presumably, sustaining this trade requires a lot of money.

Master Li might be out of money o

Da Mimi nodded and said, "Indeed, to be honest, before coming to Huizhou with you, I had never heard of Xipi lacquerware."

Reba nodded vigorously like a pestle pounding garlic, agreeing, "Ah yes yes yes, does that count as a niche culture?"

Actually.

People who follow lacquerware naturally know it well.

But the majority are ordinary people who have never encountered it.

Not to mention understanding the aesthetics of its appearance.

Or the history of its inheritance.

Just like Da Mimi.

She probably hadn't even heard the name Xipi lacquerware.

Before this.

At least in Qin Feng's view, it was somewhat sigh-worthy.

Reba then said, "We must help! Even if it's for the cultural continuation of Huizhou lacquerware, we must buy this courtyard!"

Yang Mi nodded repeatedly, "I must contribute some money, no matter what."

"It's not that I want to live with the two of you."

"I simply want to make some contribution to Chinese culture."
