【073】Everything is ready

The old man he said should be Zhong Yuan's father.

This coffin kidnapper was already found by Zhong Yuan's father.

He asked such a professional question in one mouth, and his level would not be much worse.

"What is your surname, sir?" I didn't answer his question directly, but asked for his name first. This is also to facilitate my communication with him later.

"The old man is exempt from the noble surname map, the map of the map." A very kind voice came from the phone.

Since he claims to be old, his age is naturally not young.

In the face of such an old man, I have to be polite.

You know, these people who specialize in this kind of small work can't be underestimated.

I once heard my grandfather say something.

A Taoist who is quite famous in the circle, when he is doing things, it is because he looks down on those who have no inheritance. There is no sect, and as a result, he offended a paper master.

The paper tie master looks like he is tying a little paper man or paper horse or something. But that Taoist master never expected that he would offend such a paper maker, and he almost lost his life.

Therefore, those who do our business must not be proud and look down on those who specialize in small things. Even if he is just an incense lighter who is responsible for burning incense and lighting candles in the dojo. There must be respect that should be there. Otherwise, if they do you badly, it will cause you a lot of trouble.

"Tu Lao, I have to trouble you this time! That's right, this time I'm going to do a hanging burial. Therefore, we have to use four or eight strips, and we have to use one hundred and eight sticks. Do you have time to prepare? Figure old! I said.

"Hanging burial?" When Tu Lao heard my words, he groaned.

"What's the problem? Figure old! I asked cautiously.

"No problem, it's just that it's been a long, long time since I've encountered anything like this. The last time this happened was when I was a kid, when I was still an apprentice. That time was your grandfather's business, and I met it once behind my master! Tu Lao said.

"My great-grandfather?" I was a little surprised.

My great-grandfather, that is my grandfather's grandfather.

He has seen my great-grandfather do things, so he must at least be the same generation as my grandfather.

"That's right! I was only seven or eight years old at the time, and your grandfather couldn't walk! Tu Lao said.

Hearing his words, I respected him even more.

"Don't worry, Mr. Tang, although I haven't tied the hanging coffin, I have seen my master tie it and know the essentials! Isn't it just one hundred and eight strips of forty-eight specifications? I'll get people ready right away. Be prepared before you arrive at Zijiang! Tu Lao said.

"Then thank you!" I hurriedly said.

"You're welcome, speaking of which, I and your Tang family are also old acquaintances. I have also received the grace of your Tang family. So, Mr. Don, you don't have to be polite to me. Tu Lao said.

"Tu Lao, you are polite, you don't have to call me sir, just call me Xiao C!" I said.

"That's not going to work! Since you are now in charge, then the title of this gentleman must not be avoided! Tu Lao's voice looked very serious.

Hearing him say this, I didn't pretend anymore, their older generation is very well-behaved. Don't talk about them. Even if Zhong Yuan and I are now, in front of the victim, they don't dare to mess around with the rules that should be spoken.

After hanging up the phone call, the last thing I was worried about was done.

Indeed, it is very important to tie the coffin in this hanging burial. Now that there is an old man, there should be no problems.

By 7 a.m., everything was ready to stop.

Sun Changbin also called and told me. He also began to let people work on cypress boards. And the length, width, and thickness of each cypress board are processed according to my requirements.

Not to mention anything else, just with a thickness of six inches and eight, processing is not a small job.

"Mr. Sun, I'm sorry for you. You paid for the amount of money you used in advance. I'll give it to you when we meet! I said.

"Oh, Mr. Tang, if you say that, you'll be out of sight! What money is not money! Can help you do things. That's what you look at me. If you don't have money, don't mention it! Sun Changbin said to me on the phone.

I'll give him as much money as he wants, but he'll definitely lose it.

However, he helped me this time, and I will definitely help him pay it back in the future.

"Okay, then you're welcome!" I told him again about anything else I needed his help with.

He immediately complied, and then assured me that it would be done.

"That's it! Get ready to go. I've already arranged it for the side of Hefeng County. After we get to Zijiang, we just pick up Tu Lao, who is in charge of tying the coffin. I said to Zhong Yuan.

"Okay! Listen to you! Zhong Yuan responded.

I called Tuesday and told him what he needed to pay attention to on the road.

After telling him, I said to Du Chao: "You can start." Let's mourn! ”

The funeral ceremonies and so on, these are naturally done by Du Chao. After all, he is a professional in fasting rituals.

The filial sons of the Zhou family arrived in the hall. After taking a look at the last appearance of the old man, under the auspices of Du Chao, the old man's shroud was tidied up. The lid of the coffin was closed.

Because he had to go to Hefeng County, which was more than 100 kilometers away, the coffin must not be carried.

I have asked Tuesday to prepare a large truck, and after the coffin was released from the hall, with the help of the villagers, the coffin was carried onto the car.

After fixing the coffin in the carriage, I got into my car and followed the convoy to Hefeng County.

For safety, Zhong Yuan and the filial son of the Zhou family both sat in the compartment of the van and helped guard the coffin.

We set off at around 8 a.m., because the convoy was not fast as it was moving and the coffin was pulled. It was already past 11 o'clock when we arrived in Zijiang City.

Tu Lao was already waiting for us on the side of the road with someone.

Arrived at the agreed place. I saw a rickety old man standing on the side of the road, with a pickup truck parked next to him. In the body behind the pickup truck, there were a lot of broken strips.

Needless to say, this old man is Tu Lao.

I quickly pulled over and parked the car, got out of the car and walked towards him.

"Mr. Don Jr!" Before I could speak, he shouted to me first.

"Tu Lao! Sorry for your help! I bowed to him slightly.

"You're welcome!" He reached out and grabbed me.

I quickly shook his hand.

This figure looks very old. I was a little trembling when I walked. Judging by what he was wearing, it seems that his life was not rich.

Also, I noticed that he seemed to have a problem with his right foot and was a little lame when he walked.

"Mr. Xiao Tang, look at these strips, how about it? It's not quite qualified, right? He pointed to the strips in the back of the pickup truck.

I walked over and swept it, and although I didn't take it out to look at it, I could still see that it was very broken. I nodded: "Tu Lao, the work you did, naturally there is nothing to say." Thank you! ”

After a brief exchange with him, we continued to set off for Hefeng County.

Instead of getting in my car, Tu Lao got into the pickup truck. Because he also brought two people who came to help.

That's right, at his current age, it is indeed a bit difficult to complete the matter of tying the hanging coffin alone.

After arriving in Hefeng County, we did not enter the county seat, but continued to walk southwest from the ring road.

When I arrived at the bottom of the mountain, I saw that Sun Changbin was already standing there with a few people waiting.

"Mr. Tang!" As soon as I got out of the car, he walked up quickly.

"Thank you!" I shook his hand and said goodbye to him.

"Mr. Tang, you're welcome! Come, you look at what I have prepared, see if there is a problem, if there is a problem, I will immediately let someone change it! I have brought the master and tools, if there is something inappropriate, you can just say, I let them change it immediately on the spot! "Sun Changbin took me to the front of a truck.

I looked at the back of the truck, where the cypress planks were neatly stacked.

"Okay! No problem! After I took a look, I said to Sun Changbin.

Then the Zhou family and the villagers they brought over to help got out of the car.

Tu Lao also walked over.

I hurriedly said to Tu Lao: "Tu Lao, I'm going to trouble you next, you have to tie up the coffin here." Because the next road car could not get up, the coffin had to be carried up the mountain. ”

Tu Lao answered, immediately beckoned the people he had brought over, took off the strips from the pickup truck, and prepared to start tying up the coffin.
