Chapter 290: The Photographer

I said, "There are some such amulets, and the effect varies from person to person, but you have to give me a name, otherwise how will you communicate in the future?" How do I store it in my phone book? ”

The man smiled: "What you said also makes sense, okay, my surname is Fei." Just call me a tip. I almost didn't laugh out loud, thinking that this man's last name had something in common with his performance.

I asked: "Mr. Fei, the Buddha card is also a penny, from hundreds to tens of thousands, mainly depends on what you have specific requirements." There are many kinds of these things, and they must be used with different groups of people to maximize the effect. ”

Mr. Fei yawned a lot: "I'm sorry, I just woke up and haven't fully woken up yet." I don't know much about the Buddha card, but many of my customers wear it, and the two girls who came to my studio yesterday wore a fox fairy card around their necks, and said that they were invited from the monks of which temple when they traveled to Thailand. It cost more than 5,000 yuan, but it looks no different from the necklaces sold in Nanluoguxiang and Silk Street. ”

I smiled and said, "You can't look at it that way, you have to talk about the appearance." Many Thai Buddhist cards are not as good as the necklaces of the stalls, but there are mana injected by monks and mages inside, and some have yin spirits. ”

"What else? Yin spirit? Mr. Fei seemed to be a little more energetic when he heard the voice. I briefly told him what is the difference between positive and negative cards, and the difference between entering the spirit and entering the law. Mr. Fei said: "I see, I understand, it sounds scary, but it is also very tempting. Aren't ghosts often harming people, and can they still help people? This is the first time I've heard of this. ”

I said, "Ghosts are also good and evil, such as your deceased relative, can you say that it is an evil ghost?" "Tujie Doctor.

Mr. Fei said it made sense. When I asked him what his profession was, Mr. Fei replied, "My family is from Hohhot, and I have been running a personal photography studio in Beijing for five or six years. But there has been no improvement, and now there are too many private studios to show me, and I can't hold on anymore. to this year's Spring Festival. If this is still the case, I will go back to Hoh, and leave the sad place of Beijing. ”

At that time, there were almost no individual photography studios in Shenyang, but big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou were international, and of course they were at the forefront of art, especially Beijing. Many artists have chosen to put down roots in Beijing. I didn't know much about the profession, so I didn't ask him much, just asked, "What price can you afford?" ”

Mr. Fei said: "I am so poor that I am embarrassed to talk about money, and I have seen a lot of Taobao shops selling Buddhist cards on the Internet, ranging from hundreds to thousands, and I can't tell the difference between the real and the fake." You are an expert in this area. In your judgment, in my case, what kind of Thai amulet is suitable to buy? Straight or Negative? ”

I thought about it for a while and said: "The effect of the positive card is slow, the yin card comes quickly, you can ask for a white Azan's positive yin card, the price will not exceed 5,000 yuan." ”

"Can this thing be guaranteed to be genuine?" Mr. Fei hesitated. I told him that doing business depends on credibility, and now the Buddha card is no stranger in the eyes of the Chinese, and many places can be identified, and the fake one pays ten.

Mr. Fei didn't ask any more such questions, but said to me, "Mr. Tian, I, I, I really ...... I really can't hold it anymore......"

I hurriedly asked the reason, and he said: "I have loved photography since I was a child, and my family originally arranged for me to work in the Civil Affairs Bureau, as well as the organization, but in order to realize my dream of being a photographer, I quit the organization and left home to come to Beijing." First I worked to save money, and then I rented this small studio, and I worked for four years, and the best year was just barely earning all the expenses of the year, but there was not half a dime left. My parents have scolded me for this, and since three years ago, they have stopped letting me go home unless I give up photography and call back to Hohot. I...... I don't know if I should stick to it......" Mr. Fei choked up.

I hurriedly persuaded him: "People must have dreams, otherwise what's the difference between them and salted fish?" But you also have to reflect on whether the lack of improvement in your career in the past few years is related to your direction? For example, do you really have a talent for photography, or do you just have a passion? ”

Mr. Fei said that he would send me a few copies of his work on QQ for a while, so that I could see what it was like from a layman's point of view, and then I could also use QQ voice to talk.

Adding his QQ number, Mr. Fei sent me sixteen or seventeen photos. After reading it, I realized that it was not unreasonable that his efforts were not rewarded. Although I don't know much about photography, these photos don't seem to be faulty in terms of composition, lighting, angles, or expressions, but there is something missing. At first, I couldn't say it well, but then I suddenly remembered one word: spirituality. Mr. Fei's work is like a tool from a factory lathe, the size is no problem, but there is no sense of art, it can only be said to be the work of a craftsman.

Of course, I can't say these things to Mr. Fei, first, he will definitely be more shocked and unhappy, and second, I am a layman after all, and what I said may not be really right. I told him in QQ voice that these photos are beautiful, but I am a layman and can't understand them. Mr. Fei asked me what kind of amulet can improve people's careers and quickly transfer people.

For Mr. Fei's situation, the positive card is not much help, only the positive and negative cards. I told him to wait for my message and get back to him in the evening.

After closing the door of the store, on the bus, I texted Fang Gang and Lao Xie to ask for the Zhengyin brand of Azan in white, which can effectively transfer and prosper the cause, not more than 15,000 baht.

In less than three minutes, Lao Xie called me back: "Brother Tian, don't say 15,000 baht, even if it is 25,000, it is difficult to get a good card now!" I'll help you find it first. ”

"What's going on?" I asked. Lao Xie told me that Sister Jiang didn't know how much money she brought to Thailand, and she took away all the good cards of Azan in black and white.

It's this Sister Jiang again, I'm very angry, thinking that there are hundreds of non-commercial Azan in Thailand, can she pack all the cards of these nearly 100 masters? Isn't her husband a Hong Kong feng shui master, and not Li Ka-shing's son. I called Fang Gang, and he said, "How do you know to take the initiative to call this time?" I haven't finished sending MMS messages yet! ”

I mentioned Lao Xie's matter to him, and Fang Gang said: "It's the same on my side, as long as there is a customer asking for goods, I can find at least eighty percent." But now I can only meet fifty percent, which is really unpleasant. ”

I asked, "What brand is the MMS you sent me?" ”

Fang Gang said: "It's the Success Buddha of Azanlong, 20,000 baht, this is the cheapest white-clothed Azan Zhengyin brand I can find." It's all that Sister Jiang stirring up, and now the price of the Buddha card has basically risen by six or seven percent, and it seems that we have to think of countermeasures as soon as possible. "I said what countermeasures can be thought of, people spend money to ask for cards is also a legitimate behavior, we can't throw more money and her price, that can only make the price of the Buddha card more inflated. She couldn't find someone to beat her.

"These two methods, even pigs know that they don't work, do you still need to say it?" Fang Gang snorted.

I smiled and asked what tricks you have, and he thought about it for a moment, and finally said, "I haven't figured out a good way yet, I'll tell you when I come up with it." I laughed.

20,000 baht is 4,000 yuan, if you sell it to Mr. Fei for 5,000 yuan, you can earn 1,000 yuan, although the profit is low, but it is better than nothing. It's just that in the past, each Buddha card could earn two or three thousand casually, but now the profit is two-thirds less, and I feel very unhappy.

When I was about to get home, I received the Success Buddha of Azanlong sent to me on my mobile phone. Originally, the Buddha of Success was a type of the main temple of the Dragon Po monk, but later Master Azan would also make varieties that were originally only available in temples, such as Yin Chongdi, Yin Buddha of Success, Yin Card Bi Play or Yin Card Elephant God. In fact, the phase is not important, it mainly depends on the difference in materials.

Ordinary genuine cards, which generally have temple soil, incense ash, pollen, bell copper and prayer powder. On the other hand, the positive yin card will add graveyard soil, ashes, human oil (corpse oil) and shrouds. Then use the secret method to bless, as long as you don't enter the spirit, there will be no chaos in the general offering. Like this successful Buddha sent by Fang Gang, the accompanying text is very clear: there are seven graveyard soils, seven ashes, and seven small pieces of shrouds in the materials, but these yin materials are mixed in the soil, and the appearance cannot be seen.
