Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Jade Nothing Affair Card
When I woke up again, Ayido was curled up behind my feet, with her eyes closed and resting quietly like a kitten, I looked up at the time of the wall clock, it was already more than 10 o'clock in the morning, it seemed that I was too tired, and I slept for several hours unconsciously, but fortunately Ayido did not have any accidents in the bathroom.
A phone rang, it was Ah Hu calling, saying that he had contacted a little brother in their gang, this little brother is in charge of the security department of Yundian University, and can help take us into the secret building of the Human Research Institute, but he doesn't know the specific department and doesn't know the teacher there, so this is said to lead the way, but in fact, he has to sneak in, and the time is set for 23:00 tonight after the school lights out.
Fortunately, things are developing on the positive side, and you can set off to Kunming in the afternoon.
Ayiduo was also woken up by the phone, she rubbed her eyes and said, "Brother Bimo, you're awake, I don't know what's going on, I can actually fall asleep, probably I was too tired last night." β
"You went with you yesterday to do the Fa, maybe your vitality has been affected a little, and you have been looking in the mirror for so long...... By the way, how long have you been taking pictures later, you see that I waited until I fell asleep and didn't see you come out. β
"I don't know, anyway, it's just a photo, I just came out after watching myself inside and out, I haven't changed much from before, it's just that the blood is not very good, hmm...... Brother Bi Mo, you will let me look in the mirror every day in the future, okay? β
When I saw her earnest gaze, I agreed first, looking in the mirror, a little girl would like it, let alone such a beautiful little girl.
I went into the bathroom and put away the bronze mirror, packed my luggage again, and told SΓΉ Ayiduo that the next trip would be more uncertain and might be dangerous, but I didn't expect her to laugh: "It may be dangerous to you, and I'm not afraid." I'm already dead, what danger will there be, will I still meet Sun Wukong to beat me? Hahaha~"
I was happy to be told by her. It seems that her mentality has been adjusted very well, and she has completely stopped feeling sorry for herself because of her death, it seems that girls look in the mirror more, which is indeed a lot of help for self-confidence, right?
Ah Hu called again at this time and asked us to go downstairs to the hall to gather, saying that Boss Mai had urged us several times in a row, waiting for us to go over for lunch. Not much gossip, clean up and go downstairs to check out.
Driving to Friendship Street, Ayido offered to stay in the car to rest due to her mobility difficulties during the day, so I lit a black incense in the car for her to listen to music in the car.
The four of us got out of the car and walked into the street, where Boss Mai and his wife, who was holding the child, were already waiting outside the door, and when they saw us coming, they waved and greeted us from afar. Today's Boss Mai's family looks vibrant, and they all say that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, which is reflected in their family, which is really accurate, it has only been one night, and the two people with sad faces yesterday have become smiling today, and their voices seem to be able to jump out of a cheerful rhythm.
Their child Ah Bing was also awake, although he didn't know how to speak, but after seeing me, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and leaned out to ask me to hug me with drooling, Jin Facai smiled: "It seems that this little rabbit cub also has a little aura, and he actually knows that it is a life-saving benefactor." β
The group went to the banquet hall on the second floor with a smile, the table was already full of delicacies and wine, and the two waiters smiled and gave up their seats, poured wine in a glass, and stood aside.
I suddenly remembered that there was a bunch of small pieces of jade that I bought yesterday in the bag to be delivered to Shanghai, so I asked the waiter to help me call a courier, and Boss Mai heard that I bought jade beads outside yesterday quietly, so I also came up to see.
"Ahh Why did you go out and buy these things secretly, if you want to tell me, these goods are very ordinary. Boss Mai shook his head while looking at the safety buckles and loose beads I bought: "These are all B goods, I have A goods here, you don't ask me!" β
"I'm just buying something to go back to the children in the store to play, it doesn't have to be very good, it's just a heart." I explained: "Those loose beads are also used to make some accessories for the Buddha beads in my store, and if they are paired with A goods, the price will be too expensive, and the sales will not be good." β
I saw Boss Mai smile slightly and glanced at another waiter, who brought a small box from the coffee table on the side and handed it to him.
"Master Zang, you are a master in the world, it is a bit cheesy to give money, this is a gadget that my wife and I specially prepared for you today, all as a small profit for your life-saving grace to our son, it is not a tribute, and I hope to accept it." With that, he handed the box to me.
I was caught off guard by his sudden move: "Ah, let's change things, you told me about the missing worker, I'll help your son, it's all settled, why do you come to give gifts?" It's so gracious. β
"It's nothing like a small piece of news, it turns out that I just want to ask you to help me take a look, I didn't have any hope, I didn't expect Master Zang to be able to save my child so quickly, it's like a fairy, you say, such a fairy, how dare I be disrespectful, right?" Boss Mai shoved the box into my hand and turned back to the others and said.
"I said big official, you are polite, yesterday I asked you to ask Boss Mai to buy it, you still have to do it outside, and you are afraid of taking advantage of him, you see that people are now taking the initiative to help you prepare, you just accept it, quickly accept it, let's eat." Jin Facai said on the side.
I smiled helplessly and accepted: "Then I'll ...... You're welcome. β
"Look at it, do you still like it?" When Boss Mai saw that I had accepted it, he wanted me to open it and look at his gift.
In fact, I was secretly a little curious about this gift, so I opened the exquisite rosewood box, only to see the golden brocade lining, lying a green card, I held up the sign to the window of the sun shine, my heart was secretly surprised: this brand is transparent and flawless, the sun is green, both sides are as smooth as a mirror, the four sides are smooth and neat, the size is slightly smaller than the matchbox, if you don't look away, this should be the highest level of jadeite - glass species, then there must be hundreds of thousands of market prices, How dare you accept such a valuable gift at will, and I suddenly regret that I agreed too quickly.
Jin Facai has seen a lot of good goods since he was a child, and his eyes are sharp, and he looked at it from a distance a few times, and said: "Ouch mom, the glass is planted!" Boss Mai, you've made a lot of money! β
Boss Mai nodded and said: "Don't tell you, this brand was when my wife was pregnant with the boss, my father-in-law specially customized it, ready to wear it for the doll after birth, but I didn't expect to die after less than three months, and then this brand was worn by the second and third children, saying that it was a safe and sound card, but what is the use, it still has an accident." β
Boss Mai shook his head and smiled: "This jadeite may be a treasure in your eyes, but in the eyes of people like us who climb in and out of the mine every day, it is just a stone." This sign is in my eyes, and it hurts in my heart, every time I see it, I think of the two children who left before, if only I had met Master Zang earlier...... Ay! β
"Then since it's okay now, this brand is still worn by the third child, after all, it's his grandfather's heart." As I spoke, I closed the lid and prepared to return it to him.
"No, no, no, you must accept this, we can do a lot more if we want to do this brand, and his grandfather won't care. But this piece, as our family A Bing and your boss Zang have a relationship, I hope that when Boss Zang sees this brand in the future, he will think of the third child in our family, usually burn incense and recite a scripture or something, just help this child return by the way, and bless him to grow up healthy and happy! β
Hearing him say this, I had no reason to refuse for a while, so I had to thank and accept it, and sent it to the store in Shencheng with the bag of express delivery, and told Bingbing to check it in person by phone.
During the banquet, nothing more than talking about some topics related to the jade business, talking and talking, and returned to the bronze stone mine, I asked Boss Mai, if there is a chance in the future, help me take a few photos of the stone during the day and send it, if you can get one or two small specimens, send them to Shencheng, I can do in-depth research.
"This ...... It's no problem to take photos, and it's not a big problem to get a small stone or two, but I'm worried that if the courier sent out during the day makes a mistake at night, will it kill someone? Boss Mai looked embarrassed.
"It's okay, I'll teach you, if you get a specimen, first put it in a wooden box, fill the gaps in the wooden box with sawdust, bury six coins in the sawdust, seal the wooden box, and then paste the two paper talismans I gave you on it, to make sure it is safe."
After speaking, I took out two pieces of yellow paper cinnabar from the bag to write the demon charm, this rune paper I usually have nothing to write at home to spare, although it is not a very powerful magic weapon, and there is no power to kill, but it is mainly used for restraint, usually used as a town house item on the water, and can also be used to seal the coffin and suppress the corpse.
Boss Mai saw that I had a lot of this rune paper in my bag, so he asked me for a few more, probably for sticking them in the store or at home.
"You both look as fierce as ghosts, why do you need this talisman paper? Sticking to the door of the head? Kim Ha Choi quipped.
Ah Hu replied hesitantly: "Our brothers walk a lot at night, do a lot of bad things, often have nightmares at night, put a sticker on the car to ward off evil spirits, don't hit and kill people again, and the bedside must also be pasted, don't let the unjust soul collect debts." β
"It's nice if you two don't go to collect other people's debts!" Jin Facai's words caused laughter.
Ah Leopard's mobile phone rang suddenly at this time, and after he answered, he raised his head and said: "We have to leave immediately, the little brother from Yundian University called and said that the institute received a notice from the superiors that from tomorrow morning, Xiaolou will increase the defense police, it seems that things have changed, we have to strike first!" β
(PS: It's the National Day, I haven't been with my parents for a long time, I'm going to rest for a few days, and I'm also thinking about a new storyline, the retreat has not been updated in the past 7 days, and I hope you will forgive me, and I also hope that you will take advantage of the holiday to accompany your family and meet old friends, look down at your phone less, and look up more to talk, because luck always follows the person who holds your head :) Finally, I wish you all a happy holiday, eat happily, have fun, and see you after the holiday! οΌ
