Chapter VII: Foreign Objects

As soon as the name Lan Qi'er was mentioned, many people nodded with a sudden understanding, remembering the elf and eccentric little girl in the TV series "Kangxi Dynasty", who liked Li Guangdi, but was beaten by Kangxi and married Geerdan by marriage, and after falling in love with Geerdan, he was killed by his father-in-law and son-in-law.

The old lady became a handyman who brushed the toilet from the queen of a country, was exhausted to death, and there were many disasters, Lan Qi'er was indeed abusive in her life.

The stall owner, who knew history, and the shopkeepers, showed a kind smile, making the young man blush, thinking that he was being ridiculed, and shouted with a stiff neck: "What, Lan Qi'er Gege, am I not right?" ”

Shopkeeper Li shook his head kindly, and said softly: "People are right, but the name is wrong, the princess is the princess, and the daughter born to the concubine is called Princess Heshuo." The royal daughter born to the queen is called Princess Gulun. And Gege means Miss in Manchu, so the daughters of dignitaries and nobles can be called Gege. ”

After listening to this, the young man broke his glass heart, scolded the damn "TV series", turned around and left as if angry.

There are allusions, some names, some eras, or royal things, many people looked at the copper bells with envious looks, Yin Duobao rubbed his fat hands and asked, "Uncle Li, who is this camel bell." ”

Shopkeeper Li pointed at Su Ren and said, "Didn't this little brother say it just now?" The Manchu text on the copper bell is the word "Gong Yu", of course, it is the one who married Aobai's nephew, as for what the nephew is called·······"

It's a long time, and it's not famous, I really can't remember, Shopkeeper Li pondered for a while, patted his head helplessly, and laughed at himself: "It's really old······ The brain is getting more and more useless······. ”

After the introduction of the things, Shopkeeper Li didn't have the interest to continue staying, seeing the crowd around him, looking at Su Ren's stall, he turned to Yin Duobao and said, "Transfer the money to this little brother, and you will pick it up from my store in a while." Then he talked and laughed with Su Ren, and said a few polite words, which was nothing more than having time to sit in the store pù.

Taking advantage of the free time to speak, Yin Duobao took out his mobile phone next to him, and transferred money again with the memory function of his mobile phone, and in a moment, Su Ren received a bank SMS notification.

At the end of the chat, one fat and one thin turned to leave, Su Renxi's eyebrows smiled, counting the copper coins, in less than an hour, he earned 250,000 yuan, the business is really proper, booming, after working hard a few times, maybe he can mix up the store, from the stall hawker owner, to the shopkeeper.

gave He Shen a praising look, and began to accept the congratulations of the stall owners on the left and right, not knowing whether it was true or false.

There was no excitement to see, and the crowd gradually dispersed, but what happened just now was bound to spread more and more widely.

The young man in red who was peddling camel bells was still standing in place with a black backpack, and he wanted to speak many times, looking hesitant.

After Su Ren and the stall owners finished their polite exchanges, they turned around and sat on the bantam horse, sorted out the items that were messed up due to the customer's selection, and looked up and asked, "Listen to you, you are also a person in the trade, what's wrong?" Angry now? Want to fight with me? ”

"One hand of money, one hand of goods, two clear money and goods, I can only blame myself for not having the ability, and I don't know gold and jade." The man in red rolled up the black backpack in his arms, squatted in front of the stall and said, "Your eyesight is so good, can you do me a favor." ”

Isn't it a fight and scolding the street? With an open mind, Su Ren was stunned, put down the object in his hand, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?" ”

"My name is Wang Baobao, and I am standing in the Temple of Heaven." The man in red introduced: "There is something in your hand that you can't see, can you give me a palm?" ”

The Temple of Heaven, Su Ren knew and had been there, two small streets to do antiques, but with the development of tourism in recent years, the Temple of Heaven is flooded with a large number of modern crafts and tourist souvenirs, and there are fewer and fewer experts who do antiques there.

"What's that?" Su Ren asked.

Wang Baobao said softly: "It's like a magic weapon, I can't say for sure, so I want to ask you to palm your eyes." ”

Su Ren frowned and asked, "Why don't you go to the shopkeeper?" ”

Generally speaking, for the appraisal of items, it is rare to ask the stall vendor owner to appraise the goods, and most of them will go to various shops to do the appraisal according to the type of item.

Wang Baobao grabbed his hair when he heard this, smiled awkwardly, and gave a look that you understand.

Su Ren rolled his eyes when he saw this, it turned out that he was afraid of spending money, so he took him for free, thinking that he had just picked up a leak in his hand and made a sum of money with his backhand, Su Ren couldn't refuse, and said, "Take out the things and take a look." ”

"Hey!"

Wang Baobao agreed, with joy on his face, carefully took out an object wrapped in red silk from his arms, and slowly opened it, revealing a black-brown thing the size of a cigarette box, engraved with the image of Guanyin with a thousand hands on one side, and a symbol text engraved on the other.

The thing is not big, the palm is wide, very thin, less than five millimeters thick, the shape is rectangular, slightly curvature, the surface is shiny, there is pulp, and the porcelain color is very strong.

He Shen stepped forward and looked disgusted: "Master, this is ······"

Su Ren's face was strange, he took a step back, and said softly, "I know." ”

"You know?" Wang Baobao mistakenly thought that Su Ren was talking to him, and hurriedly asked, "What is it called?" What's the point? Is it a ritual weapon? ”

"Amulet! This thing is called a Buddhist card. Su Ren's expression was like a smile, and he said slowly: "It's not a magic weapon, it belongs to foreign goods, Huaxia doesn't have it, and it won't be manufactured, and the Bodhisattva statue invited by the family to worship is of the same nature, and it is used to worship and pray for blessings." It is spread in South Asia, India, Thailand, Myanmar and other places.

There are many believers in South Asian Buddhism, the belief is firm, many people have the custom of chanting incense in the face of the Buddha statue in the morning and evening, in ancient times, South Asian merchants traveled all over the world, because it was inconvenient to carry the Buddha statue, so they asked the temple monks to make zuò Buddha cards to carry with them. ”

Wang Baobao nodded suddenly, no wonder he didn't know, the feelings were foreign, and then shook the Buddha card in his hand and asked: "Then what kind of material is it made of, ivory or tiger bone?" I could tell it was bone, but I couldn't tell what kind of bone it was. ”

"The amulet will only be made of one type of bone." Su Ren's face was a little ugly, and he grinned and said: "The skull, after the death of the Buddhist monks, the believers eat the flesh, the internal organs are fed to the beasts, the bones are made into various Buddha-style pendants, and the skull part is made into Buddha cards, the monks and believers believe that there is wisdom and Buddha nature in the skulls of the monks who have passed away, and it is the key place to communicate with the gods and Buddhas, so it is better to make the Buddha cards for worship." ”

"What······ What the? Wang Baobao's eyes widened, he looked at the Buddha card in his hand and shivered, let go in a panic, and exclaimed: "You said this thing is made of skulls?" ”

"Smack!"

The Buddha card fell on the stall, which made Su Ren exhale a lot of bad luck, and regardless of whether it was messy or not, he picked up the ornaments, beads, Bodhi seeds and other things on the stall to prevent them from touching the Buddha card.

Chinese people can play with funeral goods, eat sacrifices to their ancestors, and lie in the beds of dead people in the hospital, but no one will take human bones as treasures, and never leave them all day long, holding the dead to sleep, unless it is difficult to find relics, or perverted/sick, and the nerves are abnormal.

"Open······ Just kidding. Wang Baobao circled in place and said irritably: "Made of human bones? This ······ How is this possible? ”
