I can feel that Lin Yi's father's breathing is a little short. Although he is trying his best to hide it, he can't escape my perception.
The old man's expression was calm, but he couldn't hide his excitement. But I feel that it is not the peach wood charm that he is excited about, but that he seems to have found the right direction of cultivation.
Taking this opportunity, Lin Yi's father and the old man got to know each other. Only then did I know that the old man was called Dong Yingdong.
The audition has already started at the seminar site, and the guests began to walk in one after another. At this time, a young man came over with a very delicate suitcase. The young man is about thirty years old, wearing a straight suit, very cool and handsome.
"Elder Dong, the money is here, five hundred thousand, you can check it." The young man said.
"Huzi, thank you for your hard work," said Mr. Dong.
Mr. Dong opened the box and handed it to Lin Yi's father, "Boss Lin, click on it."
Mr. Dong just opened the box a little, presumably because he didn't want others to know that the box was full of money, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Lin Yi's father carefully avoided the angle, opened the box and counted it, and nodded: "No problem. It's half a million."
Lin Yi's father was about to take the money out of the box and put it into his backpack. But Mr. Dong reached out his hand and stopped him: "A box is not worth much. It's a gift from me. It's too dazzling, so you have to be careful."
Lin Yi's father didn't refuse, and thanked him repeatedly, "Then I would like to thank Mr. Dong."
Although Lin Yi's father had Dong Lao's box, he finally gave Dong Lao an extra ordinary amulet.
"One more." When Mr. Dong counted the amulets, he found that the number was not less, but more.
"Elder Dong is our first customer today. This amulet is a thank you gift from Mr. Dong for our opening." Lin Yi's father smiled.
"Thanks a lot then." Elder Dong was also polite and accepted it.
Lin Yi's father closed the box and was not in a hurry to send the money to the bank to deposit.
It just so happened that there were people who knew Mr. Dong in the crowd. As soon as he saw Mr. Dong, he immediately greeted Mr. Dong.
"Old Dong, why are you here?" The age of the person who came was about the same as that of Mr. Dong, but his hair was gray and he had a faint sense of air. But I dress up like a wise man. There are many people coming and going, and I haven't found a real person with cultivation. People who practice Taoism like Daochang Zhao naturally didn't find it.
"Hey, today is a big harvest." Dong Lao immediately talked about our talisman.
"Really or not?" The person didn't quite believe it.
"I will lie to you Lao Yi?" Dong Lao said angrily.
"That's true. It's not enough. Is this talisman really as good as you say?" the old man surnamed Yi asked suspiciously.
Mr. Dong took an ordinary amulet and handed it to the old man surnamed Yi, "See for yourself. I don't even believe what I said."
"Huh?" The old man surnamed Yi had just received the amulet, so he could naturally feel the pure vitality in the amulet. Although they can sense vitality with their cultivation, it is very difficult to obtain such pure vitality.
The old man surnamed Yi felt the pure vitality in the amulet for a while, and asked excitedly, "Where did you buy it?"
"Well, it's right here." Mr. Dong pointed at our booth.
The old man surnamed Yi came over immediately, "Hello, my lord, Yi Dazhu, is Dong Yingdong's good friend. Do you still have this kind of talisman here?"
Lin Yi's father quickly introduced himself excitedly, "My name is Lin Jingwei. We still have a large supply of amulets here."
"As many as I have!" This Yi Dazhu was much more forthright than that Dong Yingdong just now.
"You want it all? Do you think it's Chinese cabbage?" Dong Yingdong laughed.
"How much is one?" Yi Dazhu asked.
"Ten thousand." Lin Yi's father said calmly.
"Ah, it's really not cheap. But this amulet is really worth the price." Yi Dazhu said the truth, this kind of amulet is not something that ordinary monks can make. And even if a cultivator with a similar cultivation level as me made this kind of talisman, the price would definitely not be lower than mine. I'm afraid it can't be bought with money.
"Actually, this is not their best talisman. They had a better one just now. But now, it's in my pocket." Dong Yingdong laughed.
"Show me!" As soon as Yi Dazhu heard that there was something better than ordinary amulet, how could he resist the temptation
"No, when it's in your hands, can I still get it back? One hundred thousand yuan. The most important thing is that there are only four in total. Don't even think about it." Dong Yingdong retreated as if protecting a baby After several steps, he avoided Yi Dazhu's outstretched hand.
"Old Dong, you are too boring. We have been friends for so many years, and you won't give me a little even if you get good things." Yi Dazhu said dissatisfiedly.
"Okay, you old Yi. I really can't help you." Dong Yingdong had prepared a portion of Yi Dazhu, and took out a peach wood amulet from his pocket. Hand it to Yi Dazhu.
Yi Dazhu took it in his hands, his eyes widened, "This, this... Xiao Lin, did you make this amulet?"
Yi Dazhu suddenly grabbed Lin Yi's father's arm excitedly.
"Ah? No, no, Yi Lao, you may have misunderstood. If I have this ability, do I still need to set up a stall here?" Lin Yi's father laughed.
Yi Dazhu let go of Lin Yi's father's hand and sighed: "Alas. What a pity. By the way, you should know where this senior is. Can you introduce me to this senior?"
Lin Yi's father glanced at me subconsciously, then quickly covered it up and said, "Well, it's not easy for me to see that master, but next time I see that master, I can convey to the two of you on your behalf. request."
Yi Dazhu glanced at me, and fortunately my age is very confusing. Although Yi Dazhu glanced at me, he didn't think I was that expert. In their impression, the image of this master might be grey-haired.
"Then please." Yi Dazhu didn't dare to offend Lin Yi. The masters who could make such a powerful amulet made them very jealous. Although Lin Yi's father is an ordinary person, but this is an ordinary person who is related to a master, so he is not an ordinary person.
Yi Dazhu and Dong Yingdong seem to be people with a certain social status, but compared with the cultivators, they can only be regarded as entry-level, and what is the status of the world in the world of cultivators? Unless it is the kind of monastic family. In today's world, there are not many real cultivating families. The cultivating world is in ruins, how much prestige can those cultivating families be left
From what Zhao Daochang said that night, I already had a certain understanding of today's monastic world. There are very few real monks. This is why I dare to ask for 10,000 yuan for an ordinary amulet. You must know that Jincheng is the provincial capital, even if the shops in the most prosperous area are only three or four thousand square meters. The average price of commercial housing in Jincheng is only more than 1,000. The purchasing power of 10,000 yuan is still very strong. After all, this is 2003.
Dong Yingdong and Yi Dazhu looked a little frustrated that they could not get the news from Lin Yi's father. Although Yi Dazhu did not sweep away our amulets, he still bought more than 20 vitality talismans. Buying more than 200,000 things in one go is a lot of money.
Although Yi Dazhu and Dong Yingdong did not clear all the vitality symbols, they also led many people who participated in Taoist culture seminars to snap up amulets. Although most of the people who came to participate in the seminar on Taoist culture were blank on the monasticism. But there are still a few winks. Although there is not one master, there are quite a few entry-level ones like Yi Dazhu and Dong Yingdong. Naturally, you can also see the benefits of the vitality charm. The price of tens of thousands of yuan has indeed retreated a lot of people, but there are always some that are not bad. After a while, we ran out of amulets.
At this time, a group of people came, surrounded by a Taoist priest. I immediately sensed the fluctuation of vitality in this Taoist priest, but his cultivation was not high, which was naturally much worse than that of Taoist Zhao. But compared to Yi Dazhu and Dong Yingdong, they are much stronger, and they can be regarded as successful in building a foundation. But looking at his glossy and powdery appearance, it is expected that he has spent most of his time outside of monasticism. Where is Zhao Daochang's leisurely cloud and Yehe's ease! His age is not much different from that of Zhao Daochang. He is in his 40s and 50s, and it is estimated that he does not expect to go any further in the path of cultivation.
However, his eyes are still there, and he can see the amulet on our booth at a glance. Squeeze out of the crowd immediately and walk to our booth.
"Your talisman production level is still very good. Did you make it?" The Taoist priest approached the booth and looked at Lin Yi's father from the top. Compared to him, he felt that Lin Yi's father was just an ordinary person, and he just asked knowingly.
"The Taoist priest is joking, how can I make the vitality charm? At most I can make a ghost painting charm." Lin Yi's father smiled.
"Haha, you are also a very interesting person. You have a good level of talisman. I have been busy practicing Taoism recently and have no time to make talismans, but there are too many people from my Taoist temple who come to ask for talismans every day. In order to meet the needs of these people, I will I don't have time to practice. Your talisman is decent, why don't you provide talismans for my Taoist temple in the future, what do you think?" said the Taoist priest.
"Oh, you have developed. This is Daoist Hongyi from Moshan Laojunguan. He is an expert. Since he likes your talisman, you won't have to worry about sales in the future." Someone immediately looked at Lin enviously. Dad Yi said.
Lin Yi's father calmly asked, "Of course this is a good thing. However, this talisman was not made by me, but by an expert in Taoism. Absolutely."
"Oh?" Daoist Hongyi sighed softly, and then said, "How much do you want to buy this talisman?"
"This kind of amulet is 10,000 each. There is also a peach wood amulet that costs 100,000. This is the price set by the master, and I don't dare to change it." Lin Yi's father said.
"No, you dare to ask for ten thousand for such a talisman? Are you sure you are not crazy about money?" Someone in the crowd immediately said loudly.
"That's right, even if you ask for a lighted amulet in a famous temple, it won't cost you ten thousand, right?"
"That's it."
This group of people just didn't notice that Daoist Master Hongyi's face was a little ugly. The so-called consecrated amulet in the temple has always been to compete for business with the amulet of the Taoist priest Hongyi. Although they want to help Daoist Master Hongyi to suppress the price of Talisman, they can't use such a method, right
"Shut up!" Daoist Hongyi shouted loudly.
The people around finally fell silent.
"Did I say that this talisman is not worth 10,000 yuan? Did I say that this talisman is too expensive? The production level of this talisman is as good as mine. A talisman can save a life when it is critical. Can you make the amulet you asked for?" Daoist Master Hongyi asked.
"Daoist, is this talisman really able to do it?" Someone asked.
Daoist Hongyi smiled disdainfully: "If you don't believe me, you can buy a talisman and go out for a test. You bring the talisman and let the car hit it directly. If you die, Pindao will lose your life."
"what?"
All the people exclaimed in unison.
"That. Can you give me a discount? Give me a wholesale price." What surprised people was that this Daoist Hongyi actually negotiated a starting price with Lin Yi's father. Is this still the Daoist who was immortal before
I couldn't help but chuckle.
Daoist Hongyi glanced at me and didn't care, the old face seemed to be a little red. But this is also an old face who has cultivated into an iron plate, and he can't see too obvious changes.
Daoist Hongyi hurriedly said again: "Why don't we do this. After I finish today's report, I will find a quiet place to chat with you. What do you think?"
"Then I'll wait for the Taoist master to drive." Lin Yi's father naturally hopes to catch the line of Hongyi Taoist master. Although Lin Yi's father could not see the cultivation of Daoist Hongyi, he could naturally see the position of Daoist Hongyi among these people.
After Lin Yi's father waited for Daoist Hongyi to leave, a smile appeared on his face, "Coach Xiao Huang, it seems that we don't need to worry about Fu Lu's sales anymore."
I nodded, "I'll go in and have a listen. Do you want me to accompany you to the bank first?"
So much money in a box, I'm a little worried. I don't know if anyone is watching here. If Lin Yi's father went out with so much money, it would be dangerous. In addition to the previous money that Yi Dazhu and Dong Yingdong bought for the talisman, the total amounted to almost a million. Such a large amount of cash is indeed very risky.
Lin Yi's father naturally understands what I mean. With me here, he is more at ease. Hearing me say this, he is really nervous. Started taking out a tissue and wiping the sweat off his forehead.
"Then I'll accompany you to the bank." I smiled.
Lin Yi's father was a little embarrassed: "Coach Xiao Huang, am I too useless?"
"It's okay, it's better to be careful about this kind of thing." I shook my head. Help Lin Yi's father lift the box. In the current state of Lin Yi's father, let him carry a box of so much money, I'm afraid he will tremble all over. (.)
