My Taoist Career

Chapter 77 That Day

Who is this old man?I, who was in a daze thinking about delicious food, was taken aback by his yelling, but I didn't want Yun Xiaobao, who was sitting peacefully like a mountain, to lose his composure. First, his mouth opened as if he was about to swallow a duck egg, and then , he quickly stood up and supported the old man who rushed through the door.

"Father, don't get excited, don't get excited, sit down first and then talk." Yun Xiaobao said with concern while supporting the old man.

It turns out that this excited old man is Yun Baochun, I looked at him curiously, he looks quite ordinary, but he looks very imposing, but average, not as imposing as when my cheap master did it, um, Not far.

"Sit down! You don't even know that the gods came to your door, have you neglected the old gods?" Yun Baochun slapped Yun Xiaobao on the back with a 'slap', and he was already a middle-aged man without giving anything away. Yun Xiaobao's face.

Yun Xiaobao was obedient and didn't dare to speak at the side, Yun Baochun turned his head, as if he was a different person, and asked respectfully and kindly: "Which one is Li Shenxian's disciple? I said that I would come to Chengdu. Definitely welcome in person, in person..."

At this time, old man Jiang stood up and said, "Lao Li is my master."

"Oh, sit down quickly, sit down..." Yun Baochun personally pulled old man Jiang to sit down while speaking, and sat beside old man Jiang himself.

"Excuse me, which immortal from Li Zi's generation are you? Is Old Immortal Li alright?" After sitting down, Yun Baochun couldn't wait to ask.

"I'm Jiang Lichun, I'm Jiang Lichun. As for my master, he has gone wandering." Originally, when I heard my master was mentioned, I pricked up my ears to listen. That was the most curious thing, but old man Jiang was too cunning. Yes, even a word to dismiss.

"It turned out to be Brother Lichun. I was only in my teens back then. When I saw you, you were three years younger than me. If it weren't for your master, our family would be in great trouble, and I wouldn't be able to have a son. Speaking of it this way, even though your appearance is much older, you can still vaguely see the shadow of your old friend." Yun Baochun unexpectedly began to gossip.

"It's easy to say, easy to say, these things are said to be done by my master, I didn't do anything, I can't be so polite to you, I came up this time to sell a piece of jade, the jade I raised myself, your son and this A horse can't come out alone, so I have to invite you to judge the value yourself." Old man Jiang didn't seem to talk about his interest in the past, and directly stated his purpose.

He said it lightly, but Yun Baochun's face changed instantly, surprise, disbelief, ecstasy and other emotions all piled up on his face at once, and he asked unsurely: "What do you mean?" Are you going to sell the jade you made yourself? This... What difficulties do you have? I am obliged to do so, this... this jade is too precious."

"No, what you ask will be rewarded. I don't take it for nothing. Take a look at this jade. If you think it's commonplace, then I'll go." Jiang old man rejected Yun Baochun very straightforwardly, insisting on Insist on selling only jade.

But Yun Baochun didn't even look at the jade, and said directly: "Master Jiang, don't look at it, just ask for a price."

At this time, Yun Xiaobao was also in a hurry. He didn't know who was Lao Li, who was from the generation of Li, this kind of businessman's personality was engraved in his bones, and he still had a little arrogance. In the border of Sichuan, there is no need to be afraid of anyone. Sometimes the old man talks too much about "the friendship between the rivers and lakes", which is not very good for business.

In fact, it's not impossible to talk about "friendship in the rivers and lakes". It's okay to help someone and be generous, but business rules can't be broken, let alone Ma Dudu here?

Thinking of this, Yun Xiaobao couldn't help but said: "Father, you can just look at that jade."

When Yun Baochun heard this, he didn't say anything. Originally, he was holding a walking stick, but now he stood up, picked up the walking stick and hit Yun Xiaobao, shouting: "You are ( You've got your heart covered with lard, and you've covered your eyes with money? I'll beat you to death, you don't have eyes or a heart."

Old man Jiang grabbed Yun Baochun, while Yun Xiaobao looked aggrieved.

"Let's take a look." Old man Jiang said calmly, and handed the jade to Yun Baochun while speaking.

Yun Baochun took a deep breath, pointed at Yun Xiaobao with some lingering anger, and then sat down, his hands were trembling, very respectful, it can be said that he had held the old man Jiang handed over to him. block jade.

Then, a strange thing happened, Yun Baochun didn't look at the jade at all, but closed his eyes at once, and pressed the jade tightly to his heart, as if he was feeling something carefully.

Yun Xiaobao was stunned, Ma Dudu was stunned, Cao Er was stunned, I was still lying on the table bored, because I knew the difference between the jade in Master's room, I just had to stare at the jade very seriously and close my eyes. With the naked eye, you can vaguely 'see' a layer of yellow light around the jade in the master's room, some are more dazzling, some are lighter.

Where's old man Jiang?Even more indifferently, he simply picked up a cup of tea and looked out the window with both eyes. I knew that he was looking at the eldest girl.

In just a short while, that Yun Baochun opened his eyes, the ecstasy on his face couldn't be concealed, his hands were holding the piece of jade tightly, the corners of his mouth trembling, he kept saying: "God bless my Yun family! .”

Then, he turned to the old man Jiang and said, "Master Jiang, I guess what you sold might be Lingyu. I didn't expect you to really sell a piece of Lingyu. This kind of thing can't be measured by money. You You have to pay respects to me!" As he spoke, he was about to stand up and bow to Old Man Jiang.

But was stopped by old man Jiang again, he said: "It's easy to talk, it's really easy to talk, everyone takes what they need."

"How about half of my family property?" Yun Baochun said proudly, directly beating his crutches.

Old man Jiang didn't speak, just took a sip of tea, God knows what he was thinking.

Yun Baochun was afraid that the old man Jiang would not sell it, so he said directly: "Master Jiang, I know your master's rules, the easier the money, the more he collects, and if the money is dirty, he doesn't even bother to look at it." The Yun family listened to Li Shenxian's persuasion in the early years, and stopped doing that underground business, and the money has been much cleaner. I think Master Jiang must have heard about it before he came to sell this thing. My family is more than Not to those Hong Kong businessmen, if they want to know this thing, the price must be higher than what I paid, but Master Jiang, I am sincere, and have done a lot of good deeds over the years, Master Jiang, so I only keep what the family needs for business The running money, and the rest will be used to buy this piece of jade."

As soon as his words fell, Ma Dudu almost spit out the tea from his mouth, and Yun Xiaobao even stood up with a 'huo'.

Old man Jiang didn't speak, but Ma Dudu yelled: "No, no, Mr. Yun, you must tell me about the name of this jade, do you think you want to buy a favor, or do you really want to buy this jade? "

Yun Xiaobao also said in a deep voice; "Father, I also participate in the family business, you have to convince me."

Yun Baochun held the jade and never put it down. He looked at the two of them and said: "Ma Dudu, I know you are a jade lover, Yun Xiaobao, do you want a reason? You two look at jade so well. For many years, don’t you know about the legendary jade? Lingyu! It’s also disaster-proof jade, something that can save lives at critical times.”

"You say this is Lingyu?" Ma Dudu's originally small eyes stared so hard that their eyeballs almost fell out.

Yun Xiaobao sat down on the stool in a daze.

Sometimes, when the money reaches a certain level, life becomes very important. They have known each other for a long time, so they naturally know how precious this kind of legendary jade is, but this kind of jade is illusory, and there is no way to identify it. What's up?

I heard that there is a kind of person who is born with heavenly eyes, or a person who cultivates with heavenly eyes. At the very least, people with strong spiritual sense can see through this spiritual jade at a glance.

"Do you know? People who have been in love with each other for a long time will have a very keen intuition for jade. There is a method of matching jade called the method of matching jade, which is called the method of matching jade with heart. This method of looking at jade has many limitations and is almost lost. Comparing this spiritual jade can make some famous figures. An expert who knows this mind reading method is extremely powerful. With his heart, he can even feel the inner texture of the jade when he closes his eyes." Yun Baochun said.

"I know this method of mind, I know! I also heard that you know a little bit, Mr. Yun, but it's too much, I don't know where to learn it if I want to learn it. Could it be just...?" Ma Dudu lost his voice.

"It's been so many years, Dad, this is the second time I've seen your love jade. I didn't expect it to be a piece of spiritual jade." Yun Xiaobao also sighed.

"Actually, I'm not hot enough, but you don't know the legend of Master Jiang's master and apprentice. It is absolute that they can use Lingyu. The Lingyu they raise is definitely better than ordinary Lingyu, just like the real eminent monk consecrated The object is the one you have seen once before, the kind of consecrated object made of a skull! This jade, you close your eyes and feel it. I once said that ancient jade is very evil, so you'd better find a piece to compare the feeling." Yun Baochun explained.

After 40 minutes, Ma Dudu looked at the two pieces of jade on the table with annoyed expression, while Yun Xiaobao looked refreshed.

Just now they found ancient jade for comparison, and felt it with their hearts. Holding the newly unearthed ancient jade and feeling it with their hearts, there is always an indescribable coolness that penetrates the heart. People feel uneasy.

But when he closed his eyes and held the piece of jade of the old man Jiang, he felt inexplicably calm, and a pleasant emotion rose from his heart inexplicably, and it turned out to be a kind of peace of mind that he could not control!

This is the feeling caused by old man Jiang's powerful skills and the strong effect of spirit jade. Ordinary spirit jade cannot achieve this effect. Anyway, it is impossible for ordinary spirit jade Ma Dudu and Yun Xiaobao to have such a strong feeling.

"Hey, Bao is passing by, if you can't catch it, you can't catch it." After staring at it for a long time, Ma Dudu sighed, clasped his fists, and was about to leave.

"Hahaha... Ma Dudu, you have earned a lot of money, not bad for this one, if you have a chance in the future, you will have a chance." Yun Baochun laughed happily in his heart.

"Father, this jade is for Baogen, right?" Yun Xiaobao's face was also full of smiles. In fact, although he gave a lot of money, he left running money, and with the connections of the Yun family, this business is not the same If you do it, the money won’t come as usual?It's a different feeling to have a life-saving talisman.

Baogen is Yun Baochun's only grandson, Yun Xiaobao's only son.

"Baogen has been weak since he was a child, of course it's for him, and I don't want to thank Master Jiang." Yun Baochun is a person who is very cheerful when it comes to happy events, and his voice is a bit louder.

"Wait a minute, I didn't say I'd sell this jade like this." Old man Jiang finally spoke, and I was sympathetic to that Baogener. With such a piece of jade on my body, wouldn't my classmates laugh to death?The baby hugs the potato, hahaha, I laugh so hard that my stomach is about to cramp.

If I had known it earlier, I might as well have sold the piece engraved with hot pot to his family.

"Master Jiang..." Yun Baochun became anxious.

Old man Jiang stood up, and slowly said: "The Yun family has indeed done a lot of good deeds these years. I have a heart, and I have heard a lot. It seems that your family also took my master's words to heart. It will be like this. I also understand that although it is not glorious for you to do this business, it is a network of contacts accumulated by your ancestors. It is not too harmful to say it, because you do not accept things that have just come out of the ground. I just want to ask , How much does it cost to buy a building in the county?"

The old man Jiang talked a lot and asked such a question.

Yun Baochun was a little unclear about what kind of medicine Old Man Jiang sold in his gourd, but he still said: "There are few private houses in the big cities, and most of them are owned by the state. It is not easy to buy and sell, but private houses in the county It’s more, for one building, for a better location, [-] is always needed, for an ordinary one, it’s still [-].”

"Well then, I'll charge you 3000 yuan for this piece of jade." Old man Jiang said.

Yun Baochun couldn't believe it, this price, this price is really cheap, he is rich, it should be said that there are very rich people in Chengdu City, he can afford thirty to fifty thousand, originally he planned to Take more, I didn't expect it to be only three thousand.

"This...Master Jiang, I'm afraid this is not good?" Yun Baochun said hesitantly.

"Of course not, I didn't finish my sentence! This is just the money I received, but I don't plan to sell this jade for this little money. From this year to the next ten years, I ask you to do business every year. One-third of the profits will be used to do good deeds for ten years." Old man Jiang said.

"Okay!" Yun Baochun and Yun Xiaobao agreed almost at the same time.

"Don't try to fool around, Brother Baochun, you know you can't fool around with me." Old man Jiang's expression became serious.

"Never!" Yun Baochun also promised loudly.

In the following time, I was very satisfied. The old man Jiang was very chic when he was rich. He took me around Chengdu and bought me new 'ugly' clothes, all of which were earthy red! !I also bought myself some 'ugly' new clothes, all of which were khaki.

It's a pity that I didn't have much appreciation ability at that time, and I felt that having new clothes was happiness.

What made me even more satisfied was that the old man Jiang took me to eat those legendary snacks, such as Zhongshuijiaoer, Lai Tangyuan and so on. I ate so much that my stomach was round.

I couldn’t forget those snacks, and I kept saying on the way: “Master, those Zhongshui dumplings are so delicious, they are thin, one bite at a time, and the condiments sprinkled on the dumplings are spicy but sweet. Taste, delicious."

"It's not a dumpling, it's a jiaoer, one jiao and two jiao, because it looks like a jiaozi, the earliest and earliest, it's called Zhongshuijiao, not Zhongshuijiao." Jiang old man explained to me.

The night wind was blowing, and it was very comfortable. I felt the wind with my full stomach, and my eyes narrowed comfortably. It felt good to be led away by Master.

After returning home, Master gave my dad 00 yuan, which was more than enough to buy a house or do business. For the education of my elder sister and second sister, my dad gritted his teeth and really moved.

In fact, there are not too many things to bring, and it was packed in a few days. On the day I left, I had a banquet for the folks, and then I found several tractors, and I left in a beautiful way. It's just that my mother cried a lot and couldn't worry about me.

I didn't cry at the time, but I remember that when the tractor drove away that day, the sunset was all over the sky, and with the sound of "chug chug", I watched my father, my mother, my eldest sister, and my second sister's figures getting farther and farther away from me .....

It wasn't until this time that I realized that they had all left and I was the only one left here!It was only then that I felt flustered, and then I felt a profound loneliness welling up in my heart, and I was a little helpless. After all, I looked at the backs of those children, squatted on the ground, hugged my head, and cried.

At this time, a big warm hand rested on my head: "What's wrong, are you still stingy? Can't bear it? Are you crying?"

I stood up, wiped away my tears, and said, "Who said that? Can't I go to the county to see them often?" But when I was talking, the tears kept falling.

"Yeah, so don't cry, boys don't like this." Old man Jiang comforted him with rare warmth.

I was silent for a long time, and said sadly: "Master, I always hear my mother talk about my parents' poor relationship, and when I think about it, I get scared, I'm afraid I miss them."

"I do. You need to rest assured that you miss it. You don't have to show it too much, as long as the feeling is deep enough."

"Master, you won't leave me, will you?" I asked, and suddenly, I felt that my family had left, and I felt lonely and almost angry.

"Let's go, we should go back to the mountain."
