Chapter 36: Indifferent Female Classmates
He told me that it was a form of blessing that directly tattooed the mantras on the client's skin that can transport money, attract wealth, increase popularity and keep peace. It must be above the waist, usually above the back, but also on the chest, and the effect is similar. The Five Sutras have five functions, and they are the ancient Pali Dharma mantras of hundreds of years ago, but they must be pierced by a Luang Po monk or a truly cultivated Master Azan, otherwise the effect is very poor.
I thought about it for a while: "That's equivalent to putting a Buddhist card on a person's body, you can take it with you wherever you go, and you never have to be afraid of forgetting, right?"
Kaohsiung smiled: "You finally said a few words correctly, that's right." "I inquired about the price again, and Kaohsiung said that the effect of the five sutras of Azan Phishi is still very good, although he does not bless Buddha cards, only do exorcism and tattoos. I don't go abroad, I only cast spells in Tengchai in northern Thailand, with a minimum charge of 15,000 baht, and I will add another 5,000.
After asking clearly, I hurriedly replied to Zhang Na with a text message, saying that I accidentally fell asleep last night, and now I saw it, and told me about the tattoo, and added 5,000 baht, quoted 5,000 yuan, and took care of the travel expenses, room and board, and then asked her if she was interested, if so, I can help her inquire in detail about the details.
"Not interested, too far, I don't want to go abroad. Zhang Na replied. I was completely speechless, thinking to myself that I was wasting my time with you, and I might as well take a nap with this effort. At noon, the mobile phone rang again, and I saw that it was still a text message from Zhang Na, asking how much the other three kinds of Buddha cards were, and whether there were any pictures. I also deliberately added that I didn't want to buy it, but I just wanted to know how much this thing was worth and what it looked like. Actually, I really didn't want to deal with her, but I thought that if she became interested in a certain Buddhist medal, wouldn't it also be a business opportunity, so I patiently sent a text message to Kaohsiung, asking him to send me pictures of the butterfly card of Cuba Banner, the K Quinta Gu of Azan Bing and the nine-tailed fox fairy of Luangpo Vera, and then attach a quote.
Maybe Kaohsiung was in a good mood today and didn't reprimand me, but quickly sent three pictures, with quotations of 15,000 baht, 20,000 baht and 25,000 baht. I even forwarded the picture and text to Zhang Na, adding 5,000 baht each, and didn't explain much, let her watch and play by herself.
In the afternoon, I spread the six or seven genuine cards in my hand on the bed, wondering when I would sell out. Zhang Na sent a text message again: "Four thousand Buddha cards or six thousand, which one has the best effect?"
This is a stupid question, is it possible that the more expensive it is, the worse the effect? The reply said that of course it was six thousand. Zhang Na said: "Then why do you still sell goods with poor results, this is deception." "I was so angry with her that she said that cheap and expensive amulets are not the difference between ineffective and effective, but the difference between good and better effect.
Perhaps my explanation pleased her, and she replied, "Can you show it to me?"
"I'm sorry, it's not in stock, and the money will be shipped directly from Thailand, or the stewardess will be brought from Bangkok to Guangzhou and then expressed. I told her.
Zhang Na said: "Who knows if it was sent from Thailand?
I didn't want to pay attention to her anymore, so I was not polite, and replied directly: "You can go to Thailand with me to ask for a card on the spot." ”
"I've said that I don't want to go abroad, even if I go to Thailand, how can I prove that this Thai monk or mage is real and not that you are looking for someone to fake?" Zhang Na asked. Now I understand that this Zhang Na is not as uninterested in Thai amulets as she has shown, but just casually inquired in order to pass the time. It's that she is very interested, or she just wants to invite, but she is afraid that others will know that she is interested, so she deliberately hides her true thoughts in every sentence.
Why do you have to do this? It's so tiring to live. I sat on the edge of the bed and thought, for me, it is no longer a matter of seizing business opportunities, but Zhang Na hooked my anger, how to block this mouth. Later, I replied, "Even if I take you to a Thai temple and meet the real Luang Pho monk, you will suspect him of being a fake." Even if you see the real Master Luangpo, you will suspect that the amulet he blessed you is fake. Even if the amulet is real and helps you turn your luck, you will say that it is what you deserve, not necessarily the effect of the amulet?"
Zhang Na said, "Yes, so how do you prove it?"
"Does your husband pay his monthly salary?Does your husband have a lover outside?" I asked rhetorically, "Is your child your own?"
It may be that Zhang Na was a little surprised, and it took about 20 minutes before replying: "Why do you ask this?" I said that you answered directly.
She said: "Of course, it is okay not to pay it? Of course not, if he dares to take care of him, I have to divorce him. Of course, my son is my own son, and he looks very much like my husband. ”
I said, "How do you know that he paid in full, so it is impossible for him to keep his private money?" Zhang Na replied: "He is also in a public institution and has a salary slip, and I have also been to his unit and asked about the accounts." I didn't expect her to really ask, so I mentioned the matter of support.
"You don't have to ask this, he definitely won't dare, otherwise not only will he get divorced, but he will have to leave the house!" Zhang Na replied. I also said that my son looks like your husband, but not like you, maybe it is the result of your husband's extramarital affair outside.
Zhang Na was obviously very angry because she called: "Why are you talking like that?"
I smiled and said, "I don't like to hear it, but I'm the same." You think, I specialize in selling Buddhist plaques and other Thai offerings, and I must believe in the power of those ghosts and gods, and I also respect the monks and mages in the temple. But you suspect that they are all fakes, first, you suspect that your old classmate for many years is a profiteer, and second, you don't respect people in the practice, do you think I can not be angry? Since you believe in your husband, you have to believe in the gods and Buddhas, otherwise so many people go to the temple to worship the Buddha, wouldn't it be nonsense. ”
It may be that my words made her feel reasonable, so Zhang Na said: "I never go to the temple, and I don't believe in monks and Buddhas." "I can't help it, don't ask about Thai Buddha cards, they are all the power of ghosts and gods, people who don't believe, even if they wear the strongest magic Buddha cards, they will not be sincerely worshipped, most of them have no effect.
Zhang Na was silent for a while and did not speak. I asked, "What do you need, just tell me." That's when she told me the truth. In fact, her request is very simple, that is, she wants to increase popularity, but the specific reason is not said. I thought to myself, public institutions are not like private enterprises, private enterprises mainly rely on ability, and public institutions rely on connections and qualifications. And her character of not caring about anything and not believing it, if she says that she is popular, I really don't believe it. Just a few times at her performance at class reunions, even I didn't want to talk to her, let alone colleagues.
