Chapter 2: The cousin who raised the little ghost
I replied, "I want to buy a Buddhist card from him." ”
The strong man stretched out his hand to open a cloth curtain, and behind him was an iron door. After knocking on the door twice, the iron door opened a crack, and the strong man looked at me with his eyes, and I came back to my senses and hurriedly dodged in. This was originally an underground casino, and gambling in Thailand was banned, and the casino could only be opened secretly.
The space inside is quite large, there are more than a dozen tables, and many people are gambling money, some are playing mahjong, some are pushing pai gow, and some are playing dice and cards. The room was filled with smoke, and I choked on my cough. I didn't know which one was Fang Gang, so I had to ask the two men who were chatting against the wall with their arms crossed.
"Where is Mr. Fang Gang?" I asked.
One of the men lazily raised his hand and pointed at someone. The man was thin, of medium height, full of pits, and had a tanned face. Wearing a checkered shirt, an open chest, tattoos covered in various patterns, a thick gold chain with three Buddhist medals hanging around his neck, and a Rolex green water ghost on his hand, it seems that he has a good income.
I said, "You're Mr. Fang Gang, right?" I've got something to ask you for. ”
Fang Gang had a cigarette in his mouth, he was playing pai gow with a few people, he slowly rubbed a deck of cards, other people's eyes were staring at him, his face was full of sweat, Fang Gang threw the cards on the table in frustration, and a person cheered loudly, speaking Thai I didn't understand, and reached out to hold all the money on the table in front of him. Fang Gang squinted at me and asked angrily, "What are you doing?" "A thick Cantonese accent.
"I'm from Liaoning, and I'm going back to China tomorrow, and a classmate asked me to bring a Buddhist card back. Hear my cousin say you have it here? I quickly replied.
Fang Gang asked, "Who is your cousin?" ”
I said, "Wu Bingcai, who runs a silver jewelry processing factory." ”
Fang Gang raised his eyebrows and pouted: "Oh, it turned out to be Boss Wu from Rayong, he invited two Fortune Gumen from me, and the business is so big, and he didn't say that he invited me to have a meal." After saying that, he stood up, several gamblers stopped one after another, Fang Gang did not stop, waved his hand, and I hurriedly followed behind.
After leaving the butcher shop, Fang Gang walked to a half-used Toyota pickup truck on the side of the road, and asked me as he walked: "What brand do you want, what price, what effect?" ”
I said, "It's a female classmate of mine, and if you want to keep a safe card, don't exceed 3,000 yuan." ”
Fang Gang looked at me: "How much do you want to earn?" I thought to myself that he was really direct, so I said, "I don't know, I haven't done this." Fang Gang smiled and opened the door of the pickup truck and took out a Buddhist card from inside.
"This is the face-covering Buddha card that I just invited from the temple yesterday, I guarantee the authenticity, two thousand yuan for you, how about it?" Fang Gang dangled in front of me with a Buddhist card. I was so happy that I hurriedly took it and looked at it, Fang Gang retracted his hand and stretched out his left palm again. I understood that he was asking for money, and I was very embarrassed that I had to notify the female classmate first, and it would be better to send her MMS, but my phone did not have international roaming function.
Fang Gang took out his mobile phone, I was very good at mobile phones, and immediately saw that this was the latest Motorola V3 mobile phone, and I was envious of it. Fang Gang asked me to hold the Buddha card in my hand, and he took a picture of me along with the Buddha card, there are many more temples and pagodas in Thailand than there are public toilets in China, and he deliberately chose a Buddhist pagoda as the background, which seems to be very experienced. I told him the mobile phone number of my female classmate, and Fang Gang sent two pictures over, with the text: "A Buddhist plaque blessed, a Buddhist plaque of the senior monk of Rayong XXX Temple in Thailand, 3,000 yuan, payment before delivery." ”
After a while, Fang Gang's mobile phone rang, and he handed it to me directly, and it seemed that he already knew who was calling. Sure enough, the female classmate asked eagerly on the phone: "Tian Qi, I received the photo, you are really in Thailand!" I want this Buddha card, you put the money on it for me first, and I'll give it to you when I go back to Shenyang, okay? ”
Of course I said yes, my old classmates wouldn't let me go with pigeons, so I agreed. I am a typical moonshine family, and I only brought more than 2,000 yuan to Thailand, which is already all my belongings. At that moment, I handed the money to Fang Gang, and Fang Gang said, "It's not enough, I want 2,100 yuan." ”
"Didn't you just say two thousand yuan?" I'm weird.
Fang Gang glared: "Don't you need money to send international MMS, don't you need money to receive international calls?" "I opened my mouth wide and was completely petrified, it turned out that there was also a charge, it was really a goose plucking. Reluctantly, I took out a 100-yuan bill and handed it to him, and put the amulet card away. Before leaving, Fang Gang patted me on the shoulder: "Thank you, brother, you have a good character, you can cooperate with me more in the future." The main card is 2,000 to 5,000 yuan, the yin card ranges from 5,000 to 15,000, the main temple Gu Man Tong is 5,000 to 20,000, the spirit of Gu Man Tong is 10,000 to 30,000, and the little ghost is 30,000. Let the customer make a request first, and then you forward it to me, and I will tell you the specific quotation and details later. I didn't understand it either, so I just nodded blindly.
Fang Gang saw at a glance that I was a layman, so he simply popularized science to me, saying that the Buddha cards made and blessed by regular temple monks or decent monks (known as white-clothed Azan in Thailand) (called Kaiguang in mainland Buddhism) are genuine cards, while those Yeluzi monks (commonly known as black-clothed Azan) made of evil materials are called Yin cards, but the effect is much better. The child-like offering is called Kuman Thong, and the spirit is one with a ghost inside, and the effect is strong. The imp is to make the baby corpse into a dried corpse, and the effect is even more domineering.
I was stunned for a moment, and quickly took out my mobile phone and saved all this knowledge in the text message draft box.
When they were about to part, Fang Gang told me again that in the future, if my friend has any needs in this regard, or if there is anything that cannot be solved, he can call him at any time. I suddenly remembered the little dried corpse in my cousin's house, and asked him what it was.
Fang Gang's eyes were very complicated, and he said: "That's called raising a little ghost, it is an offering made by Master Azan with the black method from the corpse of an unborn fetus, and the effect is very domineering. Why, Boss Wu still has little ghosts at home? I don't know, no wonder his business is so good! I thought I had missed something, so I quickly found a topic to divert from.
After the separation, I thought to myself that Fang Gang looked quite fierce, but he was actually quite polite, and he knew how to thank me. It wasn't until later that I realized why he thanked me at the time.
After returning to China, I immediately contacted and met with the female classmate, and she was very happy when she saw this amulet, and immediately ordered 30 hundred-yuan bills to me, put the amulet on the spot around her neck, and finally invited me to a meal.
In this way, I earned the first money from selling Buddhist cards, 900 yuan, which was a month's salary for my part-time job in Shenyang at that time. It stands to reason that the story should end here, but I never expected that in the future, I actually became business partners with Fang Gang, and began to enter the special industry of Buddhist cards, becoming one of the many brand dealers, and my strange experience began from here.
After more than half a month, the female classmate surnamed Lu began to have dinner with classmates again, we are all very strange, it has only been less than half a month, why are class reunions so frequent? But went anyway.
During the banquet, Xiao Lu excitedly told us that a few days ago, she signed up for a group to travel to Yunnan, and suddenly had a stomachache in the middle of the bus, and she couldn't bear it, so the tour guide had no choice but to put her in an inn on the side of the road, and the bus continued to move forward. As a result, the next day, I learned that the bus slid down the hill due to brake failure, although the slope was not too high, but two people died, more than a dozen people were seriously injured, only she miraculously escaped, and this incident was finally on the news of several local TV stations in Yunnan.
This is explosive news, regardless of whether Xiao Lu's encounter is related to the Buddha card, but it was too coincidental, and everyone believed that the Buddha card had an effect and blessed her secretly. Since then, the way my classmates look at me has changed, and they instantly feel that I am a powerful person.
Two days later, my cousin called me from Thailand and asked when I would go to Thailand again. My cousin doesn't have any relatives in Thailand, so I can understand his feelings. During the chat, I sold the Buddha card from Fang Gang's hand to a female classmate, and then she said that she picked up a life when she was traveling.
"It's not surprising, the amulet is like that." My cousin suddenly said, "By the way, I have a friend surnamed Li, who is a worker sent to Thailand by the China Petroleum Pipeline Bureau to work in Rayong. The other day, I saw his sad face and asked what was wrong. He said that his son had been a little abnormal lately and that he was not sick, and I wondered if he had an evil disease. I'm too busy with business, or you come to Thailand again and go to Lao Li's house to understand the situation, if it's really his son who collided with some ghosts, you can find Fang Gang to see if there is a solution, and make some hard money from it. I will reimburse you for your air ticket to Thailand, and by the way, stay a few more days to accompany your cousin to relieve boredom, and you are also considered a tour. ”
I'm glad that there is such a good thing and not going? I agreed. I booked my ticket in the afternoon and departed for Bangkok the next day.
