Chapter 1: Master is seriously ill

In 2009, Taishan

"Master, please hurry up"

On a road leading to the Taishan Scenic Area, a taxi is speeding up. www.biquge.info Wang Xiaode, a young man with a sunny face, urged the taxi driver to speed up with a worried face.

Wang Xiaode was still a freshman at a university in the city, but suddenly received a call from his master, saying that his deadline was approaching and he wanted him to return quickly. Others don't know, but Wang Xiaode knows that his master is the owner of a jewelry carving shop in Taishan Scenic Area on the surface, and lives by carving some Taoist jewelry.

But in fact, his master is a real Taoist priest, and his master has always been cautious in his words and deeds, and he affirmed that something big must happen when his limit is approaching, which makes Wang Xiaode have a bad premonition in his heart.

Wang Xiaode, an orphan adopted by his master, was abandoned in front of the temple of Mount Tai and raised by his master, and learned a lot of Taoist classics from his master, as well as some martial arts to strengthen his body, and later experienced the transition from primary school to university like other children.

I grew up in Taishan City since I was a child, in fact, with Wang Xiaode's grades, I could go to a better foreign university, but in order not to be too far away from the master, I only went to a local university.

Wang Xiaode has always had a question in his heart, the master has been exercising all along, and it stands to reason that his physical fitness will not be very bad, but why is his body not as good as that of the elderly. Every time I asked the master, the master smiled and said nothing, and he looked at himself with deep meaning. I couldn't ask anything, and then I got used to not asking.

Although Wang Xiaode University is in Taishan City, it is still not a short distance away from Taishan Scenic Area, and Mount Tai itself is very large, which is the general name of large mountain ranges. Therefore, it took a day and a night to arrive.

"Squeak..."

An unpleasant sound of car brakes came out, the car stopped at the foot of Mount Tai on a pedestrian street town road, like this depends on the scenic area to survive on the pedestrian street there are many, under the management of the government, can not expand the territory, itself is not big or small.

Wang Xiaode paid the fare, got out of the car quickly, and rushed into a jewelry store, at this time the jewelry store was closed, entered the jewelry store and came to the back room, and saw his master sitting on the futon, and saw Wang Xiaode come back and opened his eyes and smiled slightly.

The master said, "Are you back?" ”

Wang Xiaode saw that the master was fine, and felt a little relieved, and hurriedly asked, "Master, what happened?" Although he saw that the master was fine, Wang Xiaode's understanding of the master, the master would not joke about his life and death. The master once said, "When people talk, the sky watches", "The master is not afraid of life and death, but he will not be idle to find death" and so on.

Seeing Wang Xiaode's appearance, the master smiled and said, "It's okay, I have something to tell you today, but you have to come to a place with the teacher first."

Then Wang Xiaode followed the master to Mount Tai, Wang Xiaode found that with the master to the scenic spot ticket office, the master did not take his own ticket to buy, but followed the route to enter wonderfully. And around him is a passage formed by white mist, and the tourists outside the passage are also unaware of the two of them.

Vaguely, Wang Xiaode found that his master must have a big secret, and because of the identity of the master Taoist, he was even more determined to think about it, in fact, in the master's mouth, he was also a Taoist child, but in his heart, Wang Xiaode's sense of identity as a Taoist boy was not high.

Gradually, the two of them came to the door of a Taoist temple, the environment here was already a little different from Mount Tai outside, but they couldn't say what was different, but they just felt that their bodies were comfortable. On the plaque in front of the gate is the three big characters of "Mount Tai View".

When Wang Xiaode turned his head to look at the master with a puzzled gaze, he found that the master was suddenly wearing a Taoist robe, and there was some more black hair on his head.

The master did not speak, and led Wang Xiaode into the main hall of the temple and sat under the statue of Sanqing. Said "You must have a lot of questions in your heart, and you did not let the teacher down, do not be surprised, some things you will slowly learn in the future, I only say that this is where I am Mount Tai view of the mountain gate, and the teacher is also the sixth master of Mount Tai view, the prohibition outside the mountain gate is the use of feng shui formation formation, is a layer of phantom array, mortals can not enter, not the art of immortals, if mortals understand the formation, the same can be done." Okay, sit down."

Seeing that Wang Xiaode had been standing, he said something to sit down, and seeing that Wang Xiaode seemed to have something to say, he couldn't help waving his hand and continued, "The limit for the teacher is approaching, and I want you to come back, but there is something to arrange, there is a request for the teacher, and after the teacher leaves, you are the seventh master of Mount Tai Guan." Seeing that Wang Xiaode wanted to ask questions and ignored it, a shining gossip jade pendant floated out of his chest, and the size of a baby's fist entered Wang Xiaode's body, and then Wang Xiaode felt uncomfortable with his head, but he clearly heard the master say in his ears, "From now on, Wang Xiaode, the Taoist child, will be given the Taoist name Mingde, and will be the seventh master of Mount Tai. ”

The voice fell, and Wang Xiaode also fell asleep.

Three years later, in 2012, Taishan University dormitory in Taishan City

"Hey, Xiaode, have you found an internship unit?" Li Feng, a classmate with a slender body and dark skin, asked.

"Hehe, where do I want to find a unit, after my adoptive father died, I left a store that no one has managed, and I have been sitting on a mountain for the past three years, I am ready to go back and open the store, and it will be covered with my own official seal. It's also a business," Wang Xiaode laughed proudly.

"Your kid is going back to be the boss, and we're going to be a wage earner, if your kid mixes well in the future, you will have to take your brother with you" Regarding the situation in Wang Xiaode's family, Li Feng and the others also have a little understanding, and they won't say much after they say that they want to.

"Brothers, I didn't have a good time drinking last night, and I will have a good meal when I come back to get my graduation certificate" Yan Lei, another big fat man who stayed with him, carried a big bag, and the small bag waved goodbye to everyone.

At this time, there was no one in the dormitory, and Wang Xiaode never left because he wanted to stay with his classmates for a while. I quickly embarked on the journey back to the jewelry store in Taishan Scenic Area.

After three days of preparation, the store reopened in a burst of firecrackers, although the scenic spot does not allow firecrackers, but say hello in advance, pay a fine, and the scenic spot will not be too embarrassed to open such a thing, that is, say a few more words. But that's about it, after all, the tourism industry needs these shops, but private celebrations such as birthdays are not allowed.

After simply setting off the firecrackers, the store was reopened, and a recruitment announcement was also issued at the gate, recruiting a salesperson, requiring a local, married.

As a result, when I got off work in the afternoon, there was an extra salesman in the store, Shu Weijuan, female, 26 years old, from Taishan City, with a two-year-old son. Due to the influence of traditional concepts in her parents, Shu Weijuan, who had just graduated from college, entered the marriage hall with her current husband under the introduction of relatives.

I have never been to work, now the child can be handed over to the parents, this is out to work, because there is no work experience so there is no good choice, today to the jewelry store is also a coincidence, soon signed a labor contract, the basic salary plus commission, the basic salary is twice the minimum wage standard. Such a salary is also considered to be a slight increase in the middle level in Taishan City.

More than half of the jewelry in the jewelry store are purchased from outside, and a small half is left by the master himself, and Wang Xiaode himself is also deeply inherited by the master.

And Wang Xiaode sometimes recommends him to visit the location of the jewelry according to the actual situation of the customer, and slightly transform the family feng shui, so that the customer praises continuously. This kind of feng shui transformation is very small, and there will be no incredible and obvious events, so it will not cause any social repercussions.

After nearly a month after the jewelry store was on the right track, Wang Xiaode gradually handed over the jewelry store to Shu Weijuan to take care of it independently, and two months later, Wang Xiaode basically stopped asking too much about the store, but came to the store every month to take a look, check the accounts, and send a batch of jewelry carved by himself.

Originally, Shu Weijuan thought that she was just a salesperson, but now she found that the things in the store were basically done by herself, and she was really a little busy, but she was also happy, and she was really idle at home in the past few years.

Wang Xiaode also quickly discovered this, to be honest, the turnover of the store is indeed not small, there are more than 100,000 yuan per month, although the water and electricity tax and the purchase of jewelry also have to spend half, but the monthly profit of 70,000 or 80,000 is still there, if there is no cheap thing in the scenic area. Generally, the price of items entering the scenic area will be at least tripled.

Wang Xiaode decided to raise Shu Weijuan's basic salary to 5,000 yuan, plus a commission, and allocated him 10,000 yuan per month for store operation fees, which is appropriate to let her be the store manager, this running fee can be deducted by herself, as long as she manages the store well, it can also be used to recruit salespeople.

For such an arrangement, Shu Weijuan is very excited, although the store is not a big company, but when a store manager can be managed, how can it be considered a career, if you just applied for the job, you are still a little worried that you can't do well, but since this period of time, I found that in fact, this store is still very simple, although I have not been a leader, but when I was in college, I also commanded a group of students, presumably it is no different.

When Wang Xiaode came back from Mount Tai a week later, he found that there were three more beauties in the store at once, and each of them had a handful of dust in the store, which made Wang Xiaode laugh. When I found Shu Weijuan and asked, I found out that these three were the clerks she had recently recruited, with a monthly salary of 2,000 plus commissions, as well as insurance, in addition to the commission, it happened that the operating expenses were almost planned, and the commission was drawn from her own commission, after all, each product was given to Shu Weijuan by Wang Xiaode.

It seems that Shu Weijuan has suffered a little loss, but you must know that the attraction of beauties is still very great, especially the modern beauties holding the dust, this weird feeling really attracts many tourists, and it is not a loss but a profit for Shu Weijuan.

But looking at the three little girls holding the dust, Wang Xiaode felt that something was missing, and after a little thought, he knew that it was work clothes, if he didn't hold the dust, who knew that they were clerks, and then Wang Xiaode found a tailor shop and asked them to make ten sets of ancient women's palace clothes according to their own design. Among them, there is a slight difference in color for Shu Weijuan's palace costume, which can make people feel the difference.
