In February, I don’t know why it’s getting colder and colder.
The Iron Buddha was placed on the floor in the back room and covered with a sheet. Dou Sprout gave three sticks of incense to it on time every morning and evening. I thought Dou Sprout had begun to believe in Buddhism again, but when I asked, it was not the case.
Douyazai smiled and said: "When people eat, Buddha smells the fragrance. I feed Buddha well every day so that he can go on the road well and sell it at a good price."
The boss told me that Boss Qian was coming from the south, and the time of his arrival was uncertain, but it was probably only for a few days.
I suddenly remembered something.
The more I thought about it, the more feasible it became, so I took some time that afternoon and went there.
"Hey, aren't you the boyfriend of Lao Qian's daughter?"
I smiled and said, "Yes, brother, I came to see your Factory Director Wang to talk about something."
"Come to see the factory director? That's not right. Lao Qian's daughter asked for leave. He said that his boyfriend had a fracture and he went back to take care of his boyfriend. I think your hand is fine."
I laughed a little awkwardly, Qian Xinhan must have taken leave to take care of her red eyes.
"That's because you remembered it wrong. Last time I said I was her ex-boyfriend, not her current boyfriend. Don't talk about it. Brother, where is your factory director?"
"It turns out to be my ex-boyfriend. You young people are really good at playing. The factory manager is in the office. He just came back. Go ahead and remember to knock on the door first."
When I arrived at the cannery director's office, I knocked twice on the door.
"It's not locked, come in."
Factory director Wang Sujuan was keeping accounts, and she was stunned when she saw that it was me who came in.
"You...are you Lao Yang's friend?"
"Hello, Director Wang, it's me," I said with a smile, "Um...Old Yang has something to do and can't come. He asked me to pick up something."
"What to get?"
Wang Sujuan put down her ballpoint pen: "Lao Yang is just a dealer in our factory, what did he ask you to get?"
I knew that this woman didn't know that Yang Kun had died in Binta Robber's Cave.
"That's right, Brother Yang asked me to get some kind of Buddha statue... He said it seems to be temporarily placed here with you."
"Wait a minute, I'm making a call to ask."
"It's still like this. Why can't I get through the phone?" Wang Sujuan was a little anxious.
"Sister, don't worry. Brother Yang has gone out of town and seems to have no signal. He sent me a text message. Look."
I showed her my phone and the text message read:
"Sujuan, I have something to go to Henan. The signal is not good in the mountains. You ask my brother to go to the Buddhist hall to get the Buddha statue. Put the other things with you first and wait until I get back."
I took my phone back and said with a smile, "Let's see, sister."
Wang Sujuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It turned out to be that thing. Take it away. Take it away. I'm scared when I look at that thing. You go out and wait for a while."
After waiting outside the door for more than ten minutes, Wang Sujuan opened the door and handed me a plastic bag.
There was a bronze Buddha statue in the bag. It was not even wrapped, just placed in a plastic bag.
"Then you are busy, sister, I have to get it to Brother Yang."
"When will Lao Yang come back from Henan?"
"It should be after the new year. I don't know the details."
I walked out of the cannery quickly carrying the plastic bag. I was so happy. I didn't expect it to be so simple. I was prepared to spend money to buy it to pick up the leaks.
Because Wang Sujuan didn't like it and she knew nothing about antiques, that's why I succeeded so easily.
I took out the small Buddha statue from the plastic bag and looked at it. I felt that the more it looked, the better it looked. It could be sold for at least 100,000 yuan.
I muttered two sentences silently in my mind.
"Brother Kun, I'm sorry. I'll burn more paper for you next year. It's useless for you to leave this thing alone, so I'll take it."
When I went back in the evening, I put the gilt statue of Kuzhu on the table.
"Tsk tsk..."
Dou Sprout walked around in a circle and said with a smile: "Old Fengzi, I fooled you so easily."
I said I did it myself and the money from the sale is mine and I don’t need to share it with you.
Dou Sprout's face immediately fell.
"What's yours is mine! Mineko, what's yours is mine! Just give me a little bit, just a little bit."
I laughed and scolded: "Don't think I don't know. You have almost two million in your card, which is much more than us. If it's what you say, can you give me one million?"
Douyazai said with a smile on his face: "There is no Fengzi, I only have tens of thousands of dollars in my card, haha."
