no243 clay pottery "What are you doing in city a?" Cheng Jinyao is naturally sensitive to city a.

"There is a financial interview." Chu Nan said.

*.

a city.

When Gu Tianlan learned that Chu Nan arrived in City A, he still listened to what his colleagues in the same office told him.

A few years ago, when the Chinese stock market was still booming, that colleague made a lot of money. At that time, he followed financial websites every day, so he was naturally familiar with Chu Nan's name.

No, no, it's not only familiar, it's like thunder.

He has read a lot of Chu Nan's views and propositions. Compared with those veteran economists, Chu Nan's views are often bolder, but they are always very accurate.

To him, Chu Nan was like an idol, and now that Chu Nan was in City A, he was naturally extremely excited.Better than course.

At this moment, that colleague was telling the legendary story of Chu Nan, and his eyebrows were beaming.How about Mr. Chu, how about Mr. Chu...

Gu Tianlan doesn't know much about Chu Nan's glorious history on Wall Street and his amazing experience. However, since he is her savior and he is now in City A, as the host, she should at least treat him to a meal and have a good time in person. Thanks a lot.

It's a pity that Chu Nan didn't leave his phone number when he was in Italy.

Although Leng Yan had his contact number, Gu Tianlan made a comprehensive analysis of Leng Yan's attitude towards the Cheng family, and thought that it was unlikely that he could get the phone number from Leng Yan.

Since it was her job to invite Chu Nan to dinner and thank him in person, and Leng Yan was a big jealousy, then she didn't have much need to provoke him.

Before he knew it, Gu Tianlan had typed the word "Chunan" on the 60-degree search page, and then searched lightly, and sure enough, celebrities, thousands of pages of news about Chunan came out.

The mouse slid all the way down, and finally landed on his official blog. When she clicked on it, she immediately understood the reason why the colleague in the company admired Chu Nan.There are no recommendations for specific stocks or funds, but more analysis of the global macro economy and general trend forecasts, mixed with individual concerns about public welfare undertakings and vulnerable groups.

He's more of an economist than a hedge fund manager.

Looking across the page, sure enough, there is an external contact mailbox in a corner.

Generally speaking, this kind of published mailbox has a dedicated assistant to take care of it, but Gu Tianlan seems to have no other better way to contact her now, it's impossible to call the hotline at the live broadcast, it's not easy to be cold.

"Mr. Chu, hello. I'm Gu Tianlan. Thanks to your rescue in Italy, I learned that you are in City A recently. I wonder if you have time to have lunch together. I would like to thank you in person. Gu Tianlan."

The content of the email is simple and personal.

Normally, as long as his assistant is not his girlfriend, such emails will usually be transferred to his private mailbox, Gu Tianlan is not worried.

In fact, this email was quickly forwarded to Chu Nan, and Gu Tianlan received Chu Nan's reply about half an hour later, and it really wasn't the email address just now.

The reply was simple: "Miss Gu, you are welcome. I have something to do at noon today and noon tomorrow. I will have time at noon the day after tomorrow. See if it is convenient for you. Chu." Then his phone number.

Gu Tianlan was a bit unexpected about Chu Nan's straightforward agreement. Chu Nan and Leng Yan were not very friendly. Even Chu Nan didn't even leave a phone call at the beginning. promise.

Gu Tianlan looked at the calendar, at noon the day after tomorrow, Friday, she only needs to cancel one of Leng Yan's regular three meals a day.

"I'm fine. Then we'll meet the day after tomorrow. I don't know which hotel you're staying in. I'll order food near where you live."

"Okay, I live in the Hilton on Nanjing Road, and I look forward to Miss Gu taking me to eat truly unique food in City A."

However, the two emails went back and forth, and the two sides have already finalized the matter of having dinner together the day after tomorrow.

Next, Gu Tianlan began to ponder: Since it was a life-saving grace, besides eating, should she give him another gift?

*

When I saw that clay pottery shop, it was noon the day after Gu Tianlan sent an email to Chu Nan.She and Leng Yan had just had lunch, and Leng Yan sent her back to the company.

In the window of that clay pottery shop, bottles of various shapes are displayed on multi-treasure shelves.The car has been driving for a long time, but Gu Tianlan is still looking back.

Leng Yan was driving, and only followed Gu Tianlan's gaze to the side of the road for a quick look, but he didn't see anything strange.They have passed by this street countless times, and they have never seen Gu Tianlan with such a concerned expression!

"What are you looking at?"

"There is a clay pottery shop over there." The clay pottery shop was nowhere to be seen at this time, Gu Tianlan sat up straight and said casually, "I wonder if I can make things by myself?"

"So you want to make clay pottery yourself?" Leng Yan smiled, and called the bodyguards who followed him to ask. After getting an affirmative answer, he smiled and said to Gu Tianlan, "Let's bring Chao Chao over to make clay pottery together on weekends." , I haven't done that thing, it looks interesting."

"it is good."

After arriving at the company, Gu Tianlan only wandered around, then hurried downstairs, hailed a taxi and headed to the clay pottery shop.She wasn't sure how long it would take to make a pen holder by hand.

That's right, she plans to make a pen holder for Chu Nan herself.

I still remember that when she accompanied Cheng Jinyao to the antique market, Cheng Jinyao bought a pen holder and said it was for her brother. I don't know how many brothers Cheng Jinyao has, and whether the brother she gave the pen holder to is Chu Nan.

Try your luck!If it is of course the best, gift giving, it is best to match what you like.

Of course, even if Chu Nan doesn't like the pen holder, it doesn't matter, at least he made it himself, which is considered a kind gesture.

The business of the clay pottery shop is not very good at the moment, the things that are originally art are always high-spirited, and it is neither off-duty time nor weekend, the empty shop is only guarded by the owner.A large section of the crafting area's roulette wheels were empty, except for one, of course.

The shopkeeper is sitting in front of a roulette, which is spinning fast, and the vases under the shopkeeper have reached the bottleneck, and the movements are delicate.

Seeing a guest coming to the door, he immediately put down his work, washed his hands in the clear water next to him, and greeted him with a smile on his face: "Miss, do you want to buy ready-made clay pottery or make one yourself?"

"I want to do it myself, but I don't know how long it will take?"

"Clay pottery is different from painted pottery or soft pottery. It pays attention to one-time molding. That is to say, no matter what you want to do, you can't spend too long, otherwise, the mud will dry slowly over time, and you will have to change the shape again. Impossible."

Gu Tianlan walked up to the treasure shelf and looked at the rows of items of different shapes.Most of these items are mainly bottles, which are dusty and inconspicuous at first glance, nor can they be said to have much artistic value. When you look carefully, you find that the size, shape, and height of each item are different, which can be regarded as Unique in the world.

"Did you do all of this?" Gu Tianlan asked.

"I do it, and some customers do it."

"Why didn't they take it?"

"Some can't fit in the house, and some are dissatisfied. But in my opinion, every bottle is a work of art." The shopkeeper smiled, took down a bottle, and stroked the pattern of the bottle with some rough fingers, "Didn't you notice Is it? In addition to shape and size, their patterns are also different."

"I want to make a pen holder, can I?" Among so many items, she has never seen a pen holder.

"Of course, a pen holder is much simpler than a vase."

When Gu Tianlan heard that the pen holder was simple, Gu Tianlan was relieved, she should not do too badly!

"The higher the clay pottery, the more difficult it is. The pen holder generally only needs to be two-thirds of the height of an ordinary pen, so it is not difficult. The real difficulty is the turning point between the bottom of the cylinder and the wall of the cylinder."

"I gave it as a gift." It's too bad to do it, but I can't give it away.

"It's okay, I'll use tools to help later." The shopkeeper said, pointing to a large roulette wheel in the production area, "Choose one and sit down and wait for me, and I'll make mud for you."

In Gu Tianlan's impression, clay pottery should be the first step, just like writing with a calligraphy brush, you need to grind it first, there is no reason to write by yourself, and you need someone else to help you grind it? "Boss, shouldn't the mud be made by yourself?"

The owner of the store didn't even know how to do it. He took out a bag of mud from the corner and poured it into the basin: "That's in theory. If you mix all the mud, I'm afraid the clay pottery you make will break in a few days."

He took the basin, poured water from the faucet, stirred it for a while, and then tried the consistency, but it seemed that the consistency was not enough, so he poured some mud from another pocket, and then brought the basin to Gu Tianlan's side, She explained the production techniques in detail.

With the rapid rotation of the roulette, Gu Tianlan's white hands were already full of khaki mud. The back of her hand was always stroking the surface of the clay pottery, carefully holding the height and size, and the mud that was originally spread in the basin gradually took shape.

Probably because two different kinds of mud were used when making the mud. The color is one dark and the other light, and the texture is more distinct and smooth than the other items on the treasure shelf, just like the pattern of natural malachite.Of course, the color is far less dazzling than malachite, it is just a dark yellowish color.

"Not bad!" The owner's voice sounded from behind.

Gu Tianlan slowly and gently moved his hands away from the spinning clay pottery, and when he looked up, he saw the boss holding a long plastic object with small arcs at the corners.

"Do you know how to use it?" The shopkeeper handed the small object to Gu Tianlan.

Gu Tianlan nodded, took the small object, poked it into the middle of the pen holder she made, carefully controlled the strength, followed the turning force, and dug out the excess mud from the bottom and wall of the pen holder.

Finally, the boss lifted the pen container from the turntable for her and put it in the oven.

It was only then that Gu Tianlan realized that the half-finished clay pottery vase that the previous shop owner was working on had been crooked in the clay pot.

"Boss, are you done with this vase?"

"I can't do it anymore! Clay pottery is the most important thing to shape once. When I was talking to you just now, the clay pottery surface has already started to dry. When I go there again, I can't do it anymore." The owner is still happy, No pity for the discarded vases.

A few minutes later, the clay pottery pen holder was baked, and the soft mud had hardened. However, compared with the clay pottery products displayed on the shelves, it looked gray and without any luster.

The owner of the shop did not immediately pass the pen container to Gu Tianlan, but walked into a room next to it: "Wait a minute, I will glaze you."

When the shop owner came out again, the original dull pen holder looked even more shiny, but such things are simply incomparable with those colorful or thick pen holders in boutiques. The only difference is that most of those things are mass-produced. And this one is purely handmade by Gu Tianlan, with smooth lines and natural patterns like malachite, unique.

Although the shop owner is a big man, he is also considerate. When Gu Tianlan was admiring his work, he turned around and picked out an exquisite box from the drawer. After Gu Tianlan had seen enough, he put the pen holder in it, and stuffed it with stuffing around it. things.

For such a gift, Gu Tianlan was very satisfied. People with Chu Nan's status must have a lot of luxurious items on weekdays. Such a clay pottery product should not be too popular.

Holding the gift box, she walked out of the clay pottery shop and took a taxi to the advertising company. She didn't realize that when she left the company just now and returned to the company now, she was always followed by a familiar face in a certain corner.

Although the pen holder is relatively easy among clay objects, it still took more than 2 hours to make it once.

As soon as Gu Tianlan returned to the company, Leng Yan drove to pick her up.The pen container was delivered at noon the next day, Gu Tianlan put the gift box in the drawer and walked out.

Ever since Gu Tianlan and Xiao Naibao moved into the villa in the middle of the mountain, the two of them have always been together to pick up Xiao Naibao after school every afternoon.Leng Yan said that it's okay to miss work for a while, and he wants to make up for all the father's love that the little milk bag has lost due to his absence in the past few years.

Today's Leng Yan seemed to be in a particularly good mood, sitting in the driver's seat and smiling all the time.

"Laughing so happily, have you picked up gold?" Gu Tianlan asked.

"Well, it's almost there." Leng Yan smiled softly.In this world, no matter how big a piece of gold you pick up, you won't be as happy as a gift made by Gu Tianlan himself.

In the afternoon, he heard from the bodyguard sent to protect Gu Tianlan that Gu Tianlan went to that clay pottery shop, and then came out holding a gift box.

The bodyguard wanted to report what Gu Tianlan had done, but Leng Yan immediately stopped him. He didn't want others to tell him the result. He wanted to keep that expectation until he opened the box himself to see what Tianlan had done for him.

As for the recipient of the gift, Leng Yan doesn't do what he thinks, and now that Yuhuhu is not in City A, besides herself, who else can Tian Lan give it to? !Making clay pottery with your own hands, such a unique gift, such an interesting thing... I think it is beautiful to think about it.

Along the way, Leng Yan has been waiting, waiting for Gu Tianlan to take out the gift box and give it to himself.

It's a pity that from Gu Tianlan's company to the kindergarten, until it was almost at the gate of the kindergarten, Gu Tianlan still didn't take out the gift, Leng Yan finally couldn't help it:

"Tianlan, do you have something to give me?"
