I thought back to Fang Gang's words, and I thought of this scene in my mind: a simulated figure of an old lady standing in the room, and it was not so realistic, it looked very weird. Mr. Ouyang greets this dummy every day...... I can't imagine that picture.

But out of responsibility to the customer, I still relayed these words to Mr. Ouyang. Unexpectedly, he was very interested in this kind of simulated portrait and asked me if I had any photo information. I took out a photo of the simulated doll from the computer and sent it to Mr. Ouyang, saying that there were only such children, and there were no adults, because no customers had made such requests.

Mr. Ouyang asked, "I can provide a lot of photos, can you see if you can make a wax figure, and then mix my mother's ashes into it and make an offering for me?" ”

"This ...... I can't guarantee that it will be very realistic, and when the time comes, no matter how dissatisfied you are, you can't return the money, after all, people have to work hard. I'm going to have to pay a deposit first. I replied. Mr. Ouyang hurriedly asked how much money he would charge, because I had never taken over this kind of business before, so I had to ask Fang Gang again.

Half a day later, Fang Gang called back, saying that he had inquired about the temple and Master Azan. The simulated dolls they made were all purchased from several large toy companies in Guangdong, China, for a long time. I finally found out that there is a toy factory in Dongguan, which can order toy dolls of various shapes for customers, large and small, if it is a wax figure as big as an adult, it will cost almost 40,000 yuan. Then find Azambadeng to enter the spiritual blessing, and add another 25,000 baht.

I said, "Wax figures are going to be so expensive?" ”

Fang Gang snorted: "This is just the price of an ordinary factory, do you know how much those realistic wax figures in the wax museum cost?" More than a million RMB! I stuck out my tongue and thought to myself, 40,000 is really the price of cabbage.

The wax figure alone costs 40,000 yuan. The blessing also has to be combined to 5,000, and I still have to earn some money, so I quoted the price of 60,000 yuan, and told Mr. Ouyang that if it is too expensive. It can also be made into ordinary Dharma phases, such as a clay Buddha card, or a statue that is not too complicated, more than half a foot high, so that it is cheap, and it can be down in the early 10,000s.

Mr. Ouyang asked me, to what extent can that kind of simulated wax figure go, I couldn't answer, saying don't have too much hope, the real wax figure will cost millions, and the effect of 40,000 yuan will not be too good. Unexpectedly, Mr. Ouyang said: "I have a classmate, his sister graduated from the Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, specializing in sculpture, and I can ask her to help modify the face when the time comes." ”

"So, you're planning to order one of those mock-ups that is as tall as an adult?" I asked, and Mr. Ouyang said yes.

I thought to myself, don't look at the price of that kind of portrait, it won't necessarily look good when the time comes, in case the customer regrets it, it will be troublesome. So I told Mr. Ouyang, you can send you the phone number of the Dongguan toy factory that produced the portrait, you can contact yourself, and after you are done, you can send the portrait and ashes to Thailand together, and I will find a mage to help you enter the spirit blessing. Mr. Ouyang thanked me again and again, saying that he could communicate with me at any time if he had something.

I told him that the cost of blessing and entering the spirit would cost 15,000 yuan, and Mr. Ouyang said, "Is it so expensive?" ”

"This kind of blessing is much more laborious than Master Azan making the amulet card himself." I replied.

Mr. Ouyang didn't understand: "The same is to make blessing Buddha cards with ashes and other yin materials." What's the difference? "I said, the Yin cards made by the Azan masters themselves, the raw materials are also selected by themselves, and they must meet the requirements. It depends on the time of death of the deceased, the cause of death, and the resentment of the deceased. Whether you are willing to be imprisoned by Master Azan with a witch spell. But you're different, no matter whether the deceased's yin spirit is suitable or not, Master Azan has to bless it, and the difficulty coefficient has increased a lot.

With such an explanation, Mr. Ouyang also felt that it was very reasonable. I then told him that he would have to pay before he could start the blessing, and if the blessing didn't work out, he would only return 10,000 yuan. Mr. Ouyang began to hesitate again, saying that the safety of the transaction could not be guaranteed.

I said: "This kind of business can only be done like this, Thai Buddha cards are not like clothing, shoes and hats, so many people go to Thailand to ask for Buddha cards, how many celebrities invite little ghosts in Southeast Asia, they are all paid by the master first." It only depends on whether the customer believes it or not, if it doesn't believe it, it doesn't cost anything, it's all up to you. ”

Mr. Ouyang thought for a long time and said, "I believe it, because my brother-in-law said that you have a good reputation, otherwise I really wouldn't dare to do this kind of thing, okay, I'll contact the dummy first, let's contact at any time!" ”

When he was about to make the payment, I told him that this kind of thing cannot be easily reversed, as the saying goes, it is easier to ask God than to send God. Ghosts are more difficult than gods, and if you don't want to continue, I can't solve it, unless you pay a high price to find Master Azan, then it's not necessary. Mr. Ouyang said how could he regret it? In the past, the family was poor, and my mother did not enjoy the blessings, but now that the conditions are good, she is not there, if I can invite my soul home and continue to live with her forever, that is the happiest thing.

Since he thinks so, I won't say anything more.

A few days later, I received a text message from Mei Ying that the Hong Kong Buddhist brand store was going to buy a batch of genuine brands. Because the volume is relatively large, a total of seventy or eighty pieces are required, so I have to ask Lao Xie and Fang Gang to find the goods as soon as possible. A few days later, the two finally got the goods together. I'll let them come to Rayong, anyway, my cousin is not at home, and by the way, the three of us will get together and have a few drinks.

Lao Xie arrived first, and went upstairs to the door of the bedroom. Jin Dan was sleeping on the threshold, and when he saw a stranger coming, he raised his head and looked at Lao Xie affectionately, neither screaming nor roaring. Lao Xie was obviously scared. Standing and not daring to move. I smiled and said, "It's okay, it doesn't bite, you just step over it." ”

"No, no, okay? How impolite is that? Brother Tian, let it into the house. Lao Xie said nervously.

I sat in front of the computer and called the golden egg a few times, and it looked at me and turned its head again, continuing to stare at Lao Xie.

Lao Xie said: "Then I'll step over, don't bite me!" Lao Xie cautiously walked in front of the golden egg, it didn't mean to move at all, I said it's okay, go over, Lao Xie had the courage to raise his leg and straddle the body of the golden egg, the leg was just about to land, but I didn't expect the golden egg to stand up suddenly, it grew tall and big, Lao Xie was still relatively short, and his heart was empty, he screamed "oops", and the whole person fell to the ground.

I hurriedly ran over to help him up with a smile and asked if he had broken it. Lao Xie took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead and said, "This dog is really." Stand up and don't notice! Jin Dan lay on the threshold again, looking at Lao Xie, his eyes seemed to say that you are really stupid enough, you can fall in broad daylight.

Later, Fang Gang also came, Lao Xie hurriedly walked to the door, and laughed that the other party just said come in, obviously wanting to see his jokes. Fang Gang also saw the golden egg for the first time, he slowly came to the threshold, the golden egg stared at Fang Gang, Fang Gang squatted down, stretched out his hand and gently scratched the golden egg's chin. Jin Dan closed his eyes very happily, Lao Xie looked at it suspiciously, Fang Gang stood up, stepped over casually, and waited for Jin Dan to stand up and turn around. Fang Gang was already lying on the bed, putting his legs at the end of the bed.

"What does that mean?" Lao Xie asked, "Why can he live?" ”

Fang Gang snorted: "Why can't I pass?" "Lao Xie was not very happy, saying that my dog was too snobbish and watched people put on the dishes.

Both of them took out the amulet cards from their purses, and I counted the numbers and began to pack. At this time, my mobile phone rang, and I opened it casually to see that it was an MMS message from Mr. Ouyang, and there were two photos in it. One of them is a life photo, four people at the beach. It seems to be two generations, an old couple and a young couple, and the other is some kind of dummy that resembles an inflatable doll, with a weird expression and facial features, but it can still be clearly seen. It's according to the old wife in that life photo.

In order to see it clearly, I transferred the photo to the computer with a data cable and enlarged it. "Oh my god, this ...... Why do you get more scared the more you look at it? "I said to myself.

Lao Xie and Fang Gang had already seen the photos on the screen, and Fang Gang asked, "This is the customer who wants to be his own wife's dummy?" I said yes, Lao Xie asked what he meant, I briefly told him, Lao Xie looked at the screen and sighed: "This dummy, I can't say what's wrong, anyway, it's not very similar, and these facial features, how do you look like that kind of paper-tied paper work?" ”
