On Chinese New Year's Eve in 2009, when Chinese finished eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for family reunion, they habitually stayed in front of the TV and waited for the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala.

As early as two days ago, Tang Ye launched the Chinese New Year's Eve incense tour, not far from Jincheng there is a famous martial arts mountain Qingcheng Mountain, at the foot of the mountain there is a Puzhao Temple, it is said to be very spiritual, many people rushed to the New Year's zero to go to the incense to pray for the next year.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Lin Daqi drove to pick up Chen Erdong, as well as Gu Xiaorong and her best friend Feng Miao, Fu Huayong was not in Jincheng and returned to his hometown for the New Year. This is Gu Xiaorong's first holiday trip with Lin Daqi, both fresh and sweet, although burning incense and worshiping Buddha is to pray for blessings, but eating, drinking and setting off firecrackers is her heart's desire.

Fireworks are prohibited in Jincheng City, this regulation makes the already deserted Chinese New Year's Eve even more boring, when the car leaves the city to the suburbs, can already hear sporadic firecrackers, with the approach of the mountainous area, the village gradually dense, the sound of firecrackers will be more, the smell of the year at that time, only in the countryside can really feel.

Coming to Puzhao Temple, it is ten o'clock in the evening, the vehicles have been piled up from the parking lot at the entrance of the temple to the side of the road, this is the most lively day of the year in Puzhao Temple, this year is especially prosperous, presumably most people have experienced a painful earthquake year, hoping to wash the soul with a ritual at the end of the year.

Tang Ye and his entourage drove two cars with a total of 8 people, except for Li Xiurong, the others Chen Erdong did not know, Tang Ye briefly introduced each other, almost all of them were his friends and customers, the nature was similar to Chen Erdong, and then he took everyone to the temple like a tour guide.

Tang Ye said that before the zero point incense, whether you believe in the Buddha or not, after entering the Buddha, you will worship, sincerity is spiritual, after worshipping all the Buddhas are eligible to go to the incense, this is Chen Erdong's first time they entered the temple on Chinese New Year's Eve, naturally do not understand the rules of religion, listen to Tang Ye say this, they also do it honestly, and after worshipping all the Buddhas, several people's knees are sore.

The New Year's bell is about to ring, Tang Ye took everyone to buy incense, this incense is not the kind of incense that is thinner than chopsticks that I usually see, but a stick of incense that is as tall and thick as a small tree, a small 88 yuan, a medium size of 188 yuan, the largest 388 yuan, where have Gu Xiaorong and Feng Miao seen such a novelty, it is simply an eye-opener, shouting to buy the largest one, although Lin Daqi feels a little expensive, after all, it is just a stick of incense, but seeing that Gu Xiaorong is full of interest, he is ready to pay for it, at this time Tang Ye said:

"Big vessel, you can only buy the incense yourself, otherwise it won't work." Then he bought the largest incense stick of three sticks, and carried it on his shoulders like anti-rocket artillery, and looked around, there were many people who bought three huge incense sticks like him, Chen Erdong felt interesting, and said: "Tang Ye, all the big bosses who come here to make incense." ”

"We are in finance, and our wishes are too big, so if we don't show some sincerity, how can we be embarrassed to ask the Buddha for mercy?"

"How much does this temple have to earn tonight? It's enough for him to burn incense for a year, right? Ha ha. Chen Erdong really felt that the temple was a little smelly, and a stick of incense could be sold for this price.

"Bah, don't talk nonsense, be careful that the Buddha appears to accept you in the pure place of Buddhism!" Tang Ye's chattering appearance amused Chen Erdong again, but seeing his serious appearance, he didn't continue to ridicule, so he turned to Lin Daqi and said, "Let's buy one stick by ourselves, we are not Boss Tang." ”

Although they have no religious beliefs, they also knelt down so many Buddha statues, and the four of Chen Erdong still corrected their inner piety when they worshiped incense, lit the incense and inserted it into the incense burner, put their hands together, and made a wish. The temple was full of smoke and crowds, Gu Xiaorong held Lin Daqi, waiting for the New Year's bell to ring, everyone's face was full of hope for the New Year.

Coming out of Puzhao Temple, Gu Xiaorong couldn't wait to set off firecrackers, she saw a lot of temporary sales outlets selling fireworks on the way here, and was about to urge Lin Daqi to drive, at this time Tang Ye said to everyone: "Go, go and set off fireworks!" ”

"Brother Ye, we haven't bought it yet, I just saw that there is one for sale." Gu Xiaorong replied.

"Haha, so-young." Tang Ye gave Li Xiurong a look, only to see Li Xiurong walking towards Tang Ye's Mercedes-Benz S300, and then opened the trunk, and at the same time opened the trunk of another Audi Q7, it turned out that the trunks of the two cars were already full of fireworks, Gu Xiaorong said "wow", "Brother Ye, you think really thoughtfully." Tang Ye waved his hand and said to everyone, "Follow me." ”

On the way, Feng Miao asked Tang Ye what he did, with a hint of admiration in his words, it is no wonder that on occasions when Tang Ye is there, almost all of them are big packages, and others can only play supporting roles, Chen Erdong has long been used to it, but for people who are not familiar with him, his style is really eye-catching.

Lin Daqi was a little unhappy, thinking that Tang Ye had stolen the limelight a little, even if he didn't have a generous shot, but he really didn't pay attention to the hundreds of yuan of cigarette money, so he thought of a few lukewarm words and replied to Feng Miao:

"He is a stock speculator, the market has been good recently, and he has made some money."

"His two cars add up to more than two million, so how much money does he have to speculate in stocks?" Feng Miao felt that Tang Ye was definitely not as simple as Lin Daqi said, and it was really rare for someone to drive a million-dollar luxury car in his early 20s in 08.

"He is watching the sky to eat, and when the stock market is not good, he will be gone if he says no."

"Daqi, you crow's mouth, give me a big whistle, don't you want to think about your hundreds of thousands of dollars to manage your money with Brother Ye, if he loses, won't you also lose?" Gu Xiaorong complained to Lin Daqi.

"Hundreds of thousands? Financial? Feng Miao was surprised, and Gu Xiaorong immediately explained a few words to her.

"Okay, you two don't pay attention to him, he just felt uncomfortable when he saw Tang Ye buy fireworks, haha, when it comes to a while, you can buy something specifically for your family Gu Xiaorong will be over." Chen Erdong's words were pierced, and Feng Miao immediately answered: "Haha, it turns out that you are jealous?" ”

"Hmph, what kind of vinegar do I eat, I'm just telling the truth, drive your car well, you talk a lot of nonsense."

Not long after, the three cars came to an empty roadside wasteland, this kind of wasteland is very common on provincial roads, when everyone moved the fireworks from the car, only to find that this is where a few hundred yuan can be bought, except for small firecrackers and a plate of firecrackers, the rest is all a whole box of fireworks, put together to catch a small fireworks show.

Tang Ye took a fairy stick and gave it to Gu Xiaorong and said, "You guys play first, let's go set up the fireworks." Lin Daqi saw it in his eyes and whispered to Chen Erdong: "This Tang Ye is charging a big-tailed wolf again." Chen Erdong said: "It's the New Year, why do you care about this, go and play with Xiaorong." ”

A total of 8 boxes of fireworks, lined up, each box is about two meters apart, each person points a box, Tang Ye is responsible for commanding, Li Xiurong took a digital camera to take pictures, and when Tang Ye gave an order, 8 people lit the fuse at the same time, a few seconds later, a bunch of fire bombs roared into the sky, and the gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night It was very spectacular, and the passing vehicles also stopped and watched.

Several girls danced excitedly, and Gu Xiaorong leaned on Lin Daqi's chest, constantly clapping her palms, which was the most enjoyable Chinese New Year's Eve she had in recent years. In the end, Tang Ye lit the plate of 10,000 firecrackers with his own hands, and the deafening crackling rang for three minutes, and he said that this was called consummation.
