Chapter 221: A paper shop in the city
I picked up the straw figures and looked at them, and I saw that each of them had a person's name written on it.
There are five straw figures in total, one of which is new, and the name and characters of the landlord are written on it.
As for the other four paper figures, they are called Song Hongsui, Wei Jianguo, Zhao Weiguo, and Cao Aihua.
From the names and the number of straw men with the mark of the times, I can probably guess that these people are probably those educated youths who were with the landlord's uncle and father at the beginning.
Previously, the landlord said that three people died here and another returned to the city.
Now it seems that that person did not escape the old woman's poisonous hands in the end.
I sighed, burned all the paper figurines, and left the room.
In the evening, a group of people came and took the old Taoist and the corpse away.
The landlord and Liansheng were injured, and I wanted everyone to go back together, but the landlord thought that his parents, wife and children were suffering underground, and resolutely refused to leave.
I had no choice but to stay with them and help with the relocation of the graves.
After the landlord woke up, he actually kept asking me about why the old woman wanted to hurt him, and Liansheng and Zang Feiyu were also very related.
I told both of them about what had happened.
After listening, Liansheng sighed, but it was okay, but the landlord was depressed all the time.
If Mrs. Chen harmed him, he could still understand it. But he never imagined that his uncle would be so jealous of him for a trivial matter.
When the landlord left the village, he didn't transfer the battlefield to his uncle's cousin, so he made the other party hold a grudge.
Later, because his cousin was running for the village head, he once expected him to support the village to build roads to increase his bargaining chips, but he also refused.
Just these two things, he actually made him hold a grudge, and he was embarrassed to act with Mrs. Chen, and framed the Zang family together.
However, after witnessing the dried corpse and the instant decay of Mrs. Chen, the old man was also frightened, and he was seriously ill and went to the hospital, and it is estimated that he will not live long.
After this incident, the landlady could no longer trust the villagers, and after I had chosen the cemetery, he spent money to find someone from other places to rebuild the grave for his parents, wife and children, far away from the village.
Liansheng and I were also busy for a few days, and when we returned to the city, we felt exhausted. Especially under Liansheng's serious injury, he has lost a lot of weight.
I thought I could rest for a few days, but what I didn't expect was that returning to the store would be even harder than being in the countryside.
In the past two days, it has been like crazy, and many people have come to ** paper tie supplies every day, or incense candle paper money, a small paper tie shop, which is as lively as selling New Year's goods during the New Year.
"What is the last day when so many people are suddenly dying? It seems that it is the mid-year festival on July 15, and there are still a few days left. ”
After sending off the last guest, he finally got a chance, and Liansheng couldn't help but say.
"Hehe, are you really doing these people to buy things?" I lay down on the chaise longue, stretched my waist, and said with a sneer.
"What do you mean?" Liansheng moved a bench and sat next to me.
"These people don't look like funeral clothes at all, and when they come to buy things, they are quite casual, and they don't seem to be prepared for funerals at all."
Since I was a child, I have followed my grandfather to do the paper binding business, so I am still very familiar with the content of the paper tied for funerals, and I am particular about what to buy and what not to buy.
But the people who came in the past two days were very casual. Isn't it nonsense to treat my paper shop as if it were a supermarket, wander around and look inside, buy something at random and leave?
When did paper money paper people become so casual, could it be that these things could still be bought home as inventory?
If that's the case, I'll just open a paper supermarket.
"You're saying that these people have other agendas?" Liansheng's face tightened, and he sat up straight.
"Don't be nervous, they are probably just here to test and observe now, and they don't dare to act blatantly for the time being, the old Taoist is still staying in the city!"
"The rumors spread by Ning Xin's poisonous woman, I'm afraid that they will spread more and more widely, not only in the city, but also cultivators from all over the country, who have flocked here."
At the mention of that poisonous woman, I felt a deep hatred in my heart, and she had caused me most of my troubles.
I talked to Senior Sister on the phone before, saying that I still hadn't found any trace of Ning Xin.
I don't know where this woman is hiding, but one thing is for sure, she is like a poisonous snake, she must be lurking somewhere, and she will not hesitate to come out and bite me when she needs to.
"It turns out that these guys are not bad, so next time, I'll kick them all out!" Lian Sheng rolled up his sleeves and said angrily.
"Why rush, people come to buy things, isn't it good for us to make money? In this way, when these people come back, you directly double the price, well, no, it should be sold to them three or five times, see what they say! ”
I said with a laugh.
If you have money, you don't make money, since these people send money, why don't you.
What is the pattern of our store, the more rich and dangerous it is, the more ill-intentioned these people are, the more money I earn.
Hearing me say this, Liansheng felt that it made sense, and quickly called the landlord and asked him to hurry up and replenish the shelves.
In the afternoon, the landlord did not come, but Zang Feiyu ran over.
For Zang Feiyu's recent performance, Liansheng is no longer surprised, as long as Zang Feiyu appears, Liansheng consciously hides to the side to tie the paper man.
When leaving, I will also take away the little ghost Ding Ming who loves to eavesdrop on gossip and the female ghost Wang Liwen. Now the two ghosts have become good friends, and they get together every day and don't know what to say.
Wang Liwen was originally full of anger, but now because she has been with Ding Ming for a long time and has also received some incense, her anger has begun to disappear, and she doesn't even mention her previous experience.
"Ma Sanpao, this Xuannu Zheng, how to cultivate, you teach me!" Zang Feiyu said this as soon as they met.
Among the many treasures of the Taoist Zhengyi School, different treasures are awarded to different objects, including ordinary believers, Taoist priests, ghosts, gods, and so on.
For example, the boy basket awarded to children includes the secret urn of the 36 levels of the Taishang Zhengyi Interpretation of the Boy, the Secret Urn of the General Taishang Zhengyi, the Secret Urn of the Taishang Zhengyi Guardian Tong Killing the Evil Canopy, and the Secret Urn of the Taishang Zhengyi Liberation Tong's Five-tone Curse.
These boys can be awarded to boys and girls who are not satisfied with the great luck, and can then dissolve the Guansha, eliminate the calamity, no disasters and no difficulties, consolidate the year, and live a long life.
There are two kinds of treasure urns awarded to women, Xuannu urn and blood lake urn, and the one obtained by Zang Feiyu is one of them.
This Xuannu urn is a treasure given to women by the Heavenly Master Dao of the Eight Classics, which contains charms, Taoism, and gods who can be served.
