Today, the white-collar workers of the company near Linhai Road saw a very strange phenomenon. There was a shop opening under the building. It is a normal phenomenon for a shop to open. However, this shop only hung a few flower baskets at the door and paved the floor.
There is a red carpet, and you can't even see the sign at the door. What is sold inside, you really don't know if you don't go in.
Many working white-collar workers who passed by the store took a few glances inside the store, only to see that there were only three or four young men and women in the store. They could not see the products being sold, but the decoration was full of people.
antiquity.
Many people want to deduce what this store sells from the plaque above the door, but when they look up, they are even more confused.
"Wanlong Pavilion? What do you mean? Could it be a martial arts gym?"
Many passers-by have speculated, but no matter how they guessed, they would not have thought that this shop would be a talisman shop selling Taoist talismans. It is not that these people lack imagination, but that in a prosperous urban area, they simply do not know how to shop.
I will think about this.
These days, although many southerners believe in Feng Shui, in general, they are still the kind that can only be understood but not expressed in words, and cannot be put on the surface, not to mention opening a store in a prosperous area so openly.
"Qin Yu, the time is almost up, let's go to the store door to greet you."
In addition to Qin Yu and Leng Rou in the store today, Zhang Hua and Tong Min are also responsible for coming to help. As for Tank, they are going to pick up Bao Lao and the others. Qiaoqiao also has a task today, which is to look after Xiaojiu.
The opening was definitely quite lively. Even if not many people were invited, Qin Yu couldn't hold Xiaojiu in his arms, so he simply handed Xiaojiu over to Qiaoqiao. Qiaoqiao heard that Qin Yu had assigned her the task of taking care of Xiaojiu.
Jiu's eyes narrowed with joy, while Xiao Jiu called out pitifully twice, but finally resigned to his fate.
"Well, let's go out to the door."
Qin Yu looked around at the talismans that had been placed on the shelf, with a look of excitement and satisfaction on his face. In any case, this was his first asset. There were thirty-six kinds of talismans in total.
Placed in thirty-six display cabinets, there are six first-level talismans, fifteen second-level talismans, nine third-level talismans, and even fourth-level talismans. Qin Yu also drew five, and finally there is a store.
of talismans.
Among these thirty kinds of talismans, except for the Zhendian talisman, which only had one, the others had three. It took Qin Yu more than three days in total. It can be said that in order to draw these 107 talismans in three days,
Qin Yu almost collapsed.
Of course, after three consecutive days of drawing talisman, Qin Yu found that the power of telepathy in his body had increased a lot. It seemed that no matter what, this person would always be improved as long as he showed his potential.
Qin Yu and Zhang Hua stood at the door of the store waiting for the guests to arrive, while Tong Min and Leng Rou wiped the dust from the display cabinets. Although they had wiped it several times, the girls were careful and had no other work to do now, so they just
Wipe it again.
Leng Rou wiped it again while looking at the talismans in the showcase. At first, she saw that the talismans painted by Taoists were displayed in the showcase, and she curled her lips in her heart. Such talismans only sold for a few yuan on the overpass.
Ten or so, do you need to use such a good display cabinet to store it? Open a talisman shop in this prosperous area where every inch of land is precious?
For a moment, in Leng Rou's heart, Qin Yu was equated with a fool. Isn't this because he has too much money and nothing to do?
Qin Yu also saw the contempt in Leng Rou's eyes, but he just smiled and said nothing, and then handed Leng Rou a booklet, which contained the prices and names of these talismans.
Leng Rou didn't pay attention at first, but when she opened the booklet and read just one page, she couldn't help but yelled at Qin Yu: "Are you crazy about money?"
That's right, in the booklet Qin Yu handed her, except for the talisman on the separate display cabinet in the middle, which did not have a price, everything else had it. However, even the lowest price at the end had five zeros.
The lowest talisman here sells for 100,000 yuan. Leng Rou no longer regards Qin Yu as a fool, but as a madman. What is the concept of 100,000 yuan? Even in a high-consumption province like Guangdong, with Guangdong
For a prosperous city like Guangzhou, 100,000 yuan, the average working person can’t save less than 100,000 yuan a year, spend 100,000 yuan to buy a talisman? Does Qin Yu regard the people of Guangzhou as wealthy people?
Stupid?
"When the time comes, all you have to do is sell it at the price above."
Leng Rou still remembered Qin Yu's confident look at that time, and she didn't feel that the price was too high at all. Somehow, seeing Qin Yu's confidence, Leng Rou actually believed it.
However, as she turned to the back of the book, her self-confidence disappeared without a trace. Finally, she looked at Qin Yu with indignation in her eyes. She originally thought that one hundred thousand yuan was very high, but she found that she was wrong.
Okay, this is just the price of several kinds of talismans on the first page. The prices of the talismans on each subsequent page of the booklet are doubled. It is outrageous that on the last page, a single talisman was sold for one million.
This is just a talisman, not a panacea that can bring people back to life or live forever. Leng Rou feels that she has been cheated. According to the contract she signed with Qin Yu, she can take 5% of the store's turnover every month.
of shares.
According to the price above, Leng Rou no longer hopes for the commission. If someone really spends such unjust money to buy this talisman, then it will be unless the other party is also a fool, or the kind who has too much money and no place to burn it.
Standing at Qin Yu's door, he seemed to feel Leng Rou's indignation. He glanced back and raised a smile. Taoism emphasized the word "fate". He did not introduce the specific functions of these talismans to Leng Rou. If there was any
If someone knows the goods, then it means that he is destined to this talisman. If he doesn't know the goods, forget it, he will not force to sell it.
Therefore, many Taoist temples insist that donating incense and money is arbitrary. In fact, to put it bluntly, if you donate less, they really won’t care and just treat it as a lack of luck. To a certain extent, money is also a criterion for measuring destiny.

At a quarter past nine, a Wrangler parked in a parking space not far away. A young man in his thirties got out of the car and walked towards it.
Qin Yu did not expect that the first person to come would be Meng Fang. However, he was a guest, not to mention it was a day like today. Qin Yu also greeted him with a smile on his face and complimented his future uncle a few words.
Seeing the guests coming, Leng Rou and Tong Min stopped their work and took out the prepared tea. However, Meng Fang did not enter the store. Instead, he stood at the roll call and did not talk to Qin Yu.
, but he was chatting with Zhang Hua on the side.
Qin Yu always thought that Meng Fang's arrogance was for everyone, but now he realized that he was wrong. His future brother-in-law only glared at him, and he didn't have a good face. He was still normal towards others.
.
"Brother, I don't care about you. You are divided into different classes and treated differently."
Qin Yu cursed in his heart. In fact, it was because he didn't understand Meng Fang's thoughts. The two brothers Meng Fang and Meng Yao had always had a good relationship. Meng Fang had always protected his sister and prevented her from getting hurt, but he knew that his sister
After having a boyfriend, Meng Fang's first reaction was loneliness, as if the doll she had always cherished was about to become someone else's. This feeling of loss can be imagined.
Therefore, Meng Fang has always had a bad attitude towards Qin Yu. Even though Qin Yu's achievements are now worthy of his sister, he is still unhappy. Later, it has become a habit.
Not long after Meng Fang arrived, the second group of guests arrived. However, this second group of guests was completely unexpected by Qin Yu. They turned out to be the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
Fortunately, Meng Fang was here. After the director brought the flower basket, he was dismissed by Meng Fang with a few words. The other party did not take it seriously, but instead smiled all over his face. It seemed that he could accept the flower basket and was already the other party.
What a great honor.
Qin Yu looked at the director's leaving figure and shook his head helplessly. It's not easy to be an official these days. Those who are best at pretending to be grandsons are those in the officialdom. As long as they are willing, they can praise you.
Go to the sky, drifting without knowing it.
The third group of guests were Mr. Bao and his friends. Mr. Bao walked at the front, followed by Master Qian and his wife, while Song Yuanhuai next to them was holding a pair of long wooden boxes.
"Junior Brother Qin, it's a great start. I didn't have any preparations at the moment. After thinking about it, I wrote a few words and gave them to Junior Brother Qin."
"Oh, I know Senior Brother Bao's name. It's hard to find."
Qin Yu's face showed joy when he heard that what Song Yuanhuai was holding was the calligraphy written by Mr. Bao himself. In addition to being a Feng Shui master, Mr. Bao is also the vice chairman of the National Calligraphy Association. His calligraphy is quite beautiful, but
It's just hard for ordinary people to see.
Qin Yu also saw a copy of the Tao Te Ching in Mr. Fan's room last time. He thought the handwriting was very good. Finally, after looking at the signature, he realized that it was written by Mr. Bao. After asking about it, he found out that it was written by Mr. Bao.
I still have this level of identity.
"Senior Brother Bao, Master Qian, Aunt Qian, Yuan Huai, let's all go in and drink tea first. Duoduo, you can play with Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao is inside."
Qin Yu greeted Mr. Bao and others into the store, and exited the exhibition hall in the front. There was a tea room in the back and several offices.
"Junior Brother Qin, please do your work first, we will take care of ourselves."
Mr. Bao refused Qin Yu to follow and asked Qin Yu to go outside to wait for other guests. He looked at the talismans on the display cabinet with great interest. Master Qian and his wife saw that Mr. Bao did not enter the tea room to drink.
Tea, they were too embarrassed to go in, so they just looked at the talismans on the display cabinet. However, these talismans had no names and no prices. They really couldn't see what they were worth. (To be continued)
