"Hey, hey, hey, this is not bad," Lao Xie said with a smile, "Brother Tian, you see that I have to work so hard, just give me 20,000, and you will have a ......line here" I snorted and said Don't come to this set, business opportunities are the most important, otherwise where to find such a fat business? If you don't do it, I'll ask Fang Gang, Lao Xie hurriedly agreed, saying yes, why don't you do it. I asked him to get it quickly, make a few samples first, and then take a photo with the monk Luang Po at the temple, and send it to me as soon as possible, so that the customer can feel more at ease. Lao Xie slapped his chest and said that he would promise to complete the task.

During dinner in the evening, Fei Dabao asked: "Brother Tian, how can you tell if that kind of Thai peace charm is from the temple or from the stall?" ”

"Actually, it's all the same." I gulped on the chicken thighs, my mouth full of oil. Fei Dabao opened his mouth wide and asked what he meant. I smiled and said, "This kind of peace charm, even if it is blessed by Master Luang Po, a famous temple in Thailand, will not be too effective." Large-scale blessing, a few hundred baht apiece, where is such an obvious effect? In this kind of business, if it is not a one-shot sale, do not go to the stalls and jewelry stores to buy, but to order. ”

Fei Dabao asked: "Customized?" How to order? "I took out my phone and pulled out a few pictures to show him, all of them were peace charms, paper, metal foil, and mud. Tell him that this kind of wearable craftsmanship is very simple, it is sold everywhere in Thailand, and if you buy a ready-made one, even if you have been blessed by Master Luang Po, someone will suspect that it is a fake when they see the goods in the stalls in Thailand. And the Hong Kong brand dealer that President Zhou was looking for obviously sent it directly to Hong Kong after the purchase, and he was not blessed at all, because he was weak-hearted, so he disappeared.

I said: "The lanyard is only a few cents of the cost of the yuan, if it is a peace charm, the rune paper is also a few cents, the metal foil card is a few dollars, and the mud embryo is the most expensive from the raw materials, shell to the handiwork, about twenty yuan." Counting the blessing costs and freight costs of ordinary temple Luang Po monks, each piece is up to 30 yuan. You do the math yourself. ”

Fei Dabao took out his mobile phone, called up the calculator and quickly pressed the button, and finally said: "If it is calculated according to the shipping price of 100 yuan, the cost is only in the early thirties including the freight, and the profit of each piece is 60 to 70, and 500 peace charms are ...... That's 35,000 dollars! ”

I'm smiling and that's right, almost seventy percent of the profits, which is already considerable, but the Hong Kong brand dealer is actually very short-sighted, nearly seventy percent of the profits are not satisfied, and they actually buy a large number of goods from jewelry factories in Thailand, and the cost will not exceed two or three yuan at most, which is much faster than robbing the gold store. Fei Dabao sighed: "It's really treacherous! "I said that when it comes to profiteers, there are more in China than in foreign countries, and although there are also in Southeast Asia, they are not a little worse than Chinese businessmen. If you want to be a good dealer, you can't be a profiteer, not how high the style, but the business will get worse and worse in the future.

Fei Dabao asked: "But you let Lao Xie press the talisman himself and then bless it, don't you say that the raw materials of the Buddha card must be particular, what kind of scripture powder, pie powder, bone powder and-" I interrupted him, saying that there is also pepper and coffee powder, and the peace charm of one hundred Hong Kong dollars still wants to be a good material, how do you think, it would be good to let Master Long Po bless. Hundreds of things that Hong Kong citizens have received for free, do they still want to make their wishes come true?

"Oh, I see, so are we cheating on our customers?" Fei Dabao grinned. I said of course not, let alone us, she President Zhou didn't expect this thing to make those hundreds of people get promoted and rich in the future, it was just to ask for psychological comfort. We can guarantee that this thing is handmade, and the blessing of the monks of the regular temple Luang Po in Thailand is enough. Fei Dabao seemed to understand something, and nodded slowly.

In less than two days, Lao Xie found the computer and sent me three photos, the first one is a close-up of him holding a small talisman in his hand that is not much bigger than a USB flash drive. The second is a group photo of Lao Xie and an old and thin monk of Luangpo, each holding the talisman in their hands, with a temple room in the background and two young monks in the back. There is also a photo of Lao Xie holding the two talismans in his hands, with a panoramic view of the temple behind him.

After all, Lao Xie is a veteran businessman, and these three photos include all the information, and no one can find fault with it. I sent these photos to President Zhou's e-mail address, and then called her to inform her, saying that this is a sample of the peace charm made, a pure mud embryo with a waterproof shell, using temple soil, pollen and prayer pollen, and two samples were made first. And this Master Luang Po is the abbot of the XXX temple in Ayutthaya, Thailand, Luang Po XX, who is over seventy years old, and he will be blessed when the time comes. If you want to see the real thing, ask the Thai side to send it directly to your charity. President Zhou said that he would turn on the computer to see it immediately.

The next day, she replied to me, and in my estimation, President Zhou should have asked someone to inquire about the temple and the name of the abbot. President Zhou said on the phone: "Consultant Tian, you don't need to look at the real thing, I believe in you very much, do you have time at six o'clock in the evening, how about we sign the contract and pay you a deposit of sixty percent first?" "I said no problem.

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, President Zhou said again: "Consultant Tian, can you be alone when you come?" I have some personal matters I want to ask. "I was surprised, but quickly agreed.

When I came to the charity meeting again, I subconsciously glanced at the male assistant a few more times, thinking that it was really unseemly. How can such a young and handsome guy get along with a middle-aged female boss, is it also an unspoken rule?

When I entered President Zhou's office, she had already drawn up the contract and sat on the sofa, and I saw that it was okay, so I signed it and stamped it with my private seal. She asked me why I didn't have a chapter for the Buddha card shop, and I smiled and said, "This business is my own, it doesn't belong to the Buddha card shop, and it should be counted separately." In order to dispel her doubts, I hurriedly said that I would not go to pit people for the sake of this tens of thousands of yuan business, I am a senior consultant in Master Chen's Buddha brand shop, and I also have a salary of 30,000 Hong Kong dollars per month.

After finishing the business, President Zhou said to me, "Actually, there are other things, let's go out and talk, and by the way, I will invite you to have a meal." "I didn't shirk it, and when I left the office, President Zhou handed the contract to the male assistant and asked him to hand it over to the finance department to pay as soon as possible. Out of the building, President Zhou drove me from the underground garage to the Hong Kong-style restaurant, picked a private room and began to order.

She asked me what I was eating, and I said anything, and I wasn't a picky eater anyway. President Zhou said that I would just be casual, and ordered a few dishes, all of which had fish and meat. After the waiter left, I thought to myself that this week, the president didn't say that she would eat vegetarian sutras and worship Buddha, but there was no vegetarian dish, how could she eat it?

While waiting for the food to be served, I asked, "What is there that President Zhou can do for me?" "Maybe I'm used to coming into contact with these people with heads and faces in the metropolis, and my speech has begun to be more upscale.

"Mr. Tian, you don't believe in Buddhism, but do you believe in cause and effect?" President Zhou was silent at first, and then asked. I thought about it and said that I still believe in cause and effect, because I have taken over a lot of business in the past few years, and it is all evil cause and effect.

President Zhou asked, "Are there any exceptions?" "I said yes, many customers have done bad things, but either there is no retribution, or the retribution is too light, I guess it is because they have accumulated blessings in the previous life and canceled each other, or they will be repaid in the next life. President Zhou nodded and said, "I have done so many good deeds, but why haven't I received blessings?" ”

When I asked what I meant, President Zhou said, "I have been in Hong Kong for several years, and although I am not a rich man or a celebrity, I have some identities, and I hope that I will keep it secret no matter what the outcome of today's conversation is." I assured her that the privacy of my clients was above all else, and that no one would reveal it except for the people involved in the business, such as the upstream merchants and Master Azan.

President Zhou nodded and said, "I am forty-five years old this year, and I have been married three times, all of which have failed, because I cannot have children. But there was no problem with the hospital examination, but I couldn't get pregnant. Later, artificial insemination and IVF were done in the hospital, but recurrent miscarriages were repeated. After the third divorce, I no longer had hope for marriage, so I came to Hong Kong from Shanghai and moved the XX Charity Association to continue its business. ”

At this time, the food began to be served, and I couldn't help but ask her why she didn't order vegetarian dishes, and President Zhou said that it was okay, she didn't eat vegetarian every day, but had a fixed time and date, and I thought to myself that this is the so-called vegetarian food.
