Chapter 26 Chapter Thirteen

Izakaya is an imported word, which originally refers to a restaurant with Japanese characteristics, which usually provides some relatively high-quality meals and exists as a tavern.Japan, known as the "hot spring kingdom", has a very mature hot spring culture.When the hot spring villa was first built, in order to attract consumers who followed suit, it directly borrowed it. A large number of decorations are mainly Japanese-style, and even the restaurants that provide derivative consumption are named izakaya in an arty way. In comparison, this small building with a wooden structure is more upscale and refined than ordinary izakayas.

It is said to be a trade fair, but not many people actually participated. When we showed the blue bamboo chips for the qualification to attend the meeting, followed the well-dressed waiters, walked around the smoky hot spring area, and walked into the specially arranged izakaya, only to find that there were only thirty people present, and most of them And a beautiful lover with gorgeous flowers.This izakaya with an area of ​​nearly 150 square meters looks very loose.In order to avoid the failure of the transaction due to random price bidding, we have remitted a deposit of 200,000 yuan to the account designated by Li Qing yesterday in advance. The money will either be deducted from the purchase price or the original amount return.

Also for security reasons, we were strictly searched before entering, and all weapons were strictly prohibited. Fortunately, we were reminded by Li Qing before, so we didn't commit any taboos except for the talisman paper utensils that we could use. We tried it before entering the arena, and the mobile phone signal has been blocked or interfered, and we have lost contact with Cao Yanjun, Guozilian and others.Thinking that we were still able to get through to Lao Cao's phone in the locker room that day, it should be that the other party has activated some kind of device, which is on and off.

Because it was a meal, the organizer prepared it very well. On the long snow-white table, they provided buffet-style wine and pastries and some high-end food, such as caviar and bright red lobster, for people to eat at will .Customers sat in the sofa circle in twos and threes, holding wine glasses and chatting with each other, and there was a small stage in the very center, with a small booth in front of it, without anything on it. Like all big shots, Qing Xu still hasn't shown up.The staff in charge of the reception are all the staff of the hot spring villa. The boss, Fatty He, was not seen, but a kind-faced green-robed Taoist priest greeted the guests at the door.Li Qing walked in ten minutes after we sat down.

He obviously didn't regard us as real fat sheep, but as two friends who came to play out of curiosity, nodded slightly, and didn't come over to say hello.We were also happy to relax, took a glass of wine, sat and looked at these customers who came to the venue.I can also be regarded as a well-informed person. I have read countless people, and I can roughly tell a person's identity from their clothing and behavior. Among these people, the most are shrewd wealthy businessmen, there are also some professional brokers, errand runners, and leaders who are said to have a certain level.

This is a feast of wealth and power. People like Zamao Xiaodao and I who are empty-handed are rare. To be honest, Qingxu can be regarded as a very powerful talent, and it is really amazing to be able to industrialize this talisman.One must know that aside from these talismans in the Qi-gathering town house, any offensive talisman requires some power to drive it.He was able to make so many well-dressed people flock to him, and the talismans such as Qi Fu, Ju Yun, Disaster Elimination, and Town House must have a good reputation.For example, the kind of jade charms that Li Tangcheng and the others bought hung around their necks to dispel ghosts and ward off evil spirits.

However, all of this is based on the power of Ni Beidou Seizing Sha and rushing forward. Just as we were boredly looking at the buyers in this izakaya, the rope curtain at the open wooden door flipped, and five indifferent, sturdy men walked in, one of whom was carrying a huge wooden box, like A scholar rushing for an exam in a costume drama.The leader of these five people is a man with a flowing black beard under his chin, and next to him is the Zhu Jun we met in the hot spring that day. As soon as Zhu Jun came in, he scanned the audience, and soon saw me and Zamao Xiaodao sitting in the corner drinking red wine and eating lobster.There was a look of extreme shock in his eyes, but he quickly restrained himself, nodded slightly to me, found a table near the front with his partner and sat down, then pointed to our side, talking to the black-bearded man After saying a few words, the man turned his head and greeted us with fists.

Miscellaneous Xiaodao and I nodded in return. Judging from the attitude on their faces, it is obvious that they are not hostile to us. If so, it is more in line with our plan. I stared at the huge wooden boxes they were carrying. The things that could be brought in through the security check were naturally related to the transaction. Perhaps it was the Hanwang barefoot double-eared tripod that Qingxu needed most.However, others don't know, but we do know that Xiaojun and the others were almost wiped out in the Heizhugou.I'm afraid that the things inside this wooden box are simply counterfeit goods.

I estimate that with the level of counterfeiting they have dealt with cultural relic dealers all year round, they may be able to be so lifelike that they can confuse the real with the fake. It was at this time that several people filed in from the inner side door, the one at the head was wearing a navy blue broad avenue robe, with lips as thin as a small sword, it was the Daoist Qingxu we had been looking for. His appearance immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the arena. It was unknown who took the lead, but everyone stood up and applauded loudly. Facing the greetings of these people, Qing Xu looked very graceful.Waving his hands all the way from the door, he walked up to the small booth, cleared his throat, and spread his hands out. He didn't speak until everyone stopped making noise.This is a lengthy speech, to the effect of thanking everyone, and then saying that due to his limited power, the talismans he makes every year are very rare, but there are too many people who want to ask him for talismans, and they are all friends, so this event was held For a small gathering, invite the big guys together and make a fair invitation, so as not to be unfair and hurt everyone's sympathy.

After saying this, Qingxu made a bow, then sat down beside him, and talked softly with Li Qing and others beside him. The trade fair has begun, and the person in charge of the scene is the Taoist priest in green who greeted the guests earlier. His robe was torn and old, with some stains on it.However, he didn't care about it, and came to the stage to make a Daoyi, explaining the origin of the talisman and its magical effects to everyone here.I have listened to the training class of "Amway" a long time ago, and seeing his eloquent state, I couldn't help thinking of the previous Amway lecturer, who seemed to be in exactly the same state, just like mental hypnosis.

To be honest, Taoist talismans, tranquility town houses, and prevention of small children do have some effects.However, such things as he boasted about luck and success, which are related to luck and extremely effective, are really a bit of nonsense. why?There is a cause and effect in everything, good causes result in good results, and evil causes result in evil results. We are all fish swimming in the river of destiny. Occasionally, some of us can jump out of the water, look at the scenery on the shore, and see the direction of the road ahead. But after all, he can't get out of this river, and will eventually go downstream, until he dies.No one can change—maybe someone can, but mostly beyond our ordinary sight. The reason why I feel this way is because I am able to make talismans, I am an expert in the industry, and I understand the principles and laws.However, others don't know it. Hearing this Taoist who claims to be a blue hole, he is exaggerating and throwing out various examples of getting promoted and getting rich one by one. But in this world, rational people accounted for the majority after all, and the old foxes in the audience were all quietly waiting for Qingdong to start explaining the rules of the charm. The invitation symbol is not a selling symbol, so it can't be too philistine, but in the form of a hidden mark.That is to say, when you see the talisman you like and need, fill in the price on the list on the table, and then put it into the black box. There was sandalwood in the hall, and after the Taoist name of "Infinite Heavenly Venerable", the invitation ceremony officially started. Paper talismans, bamboo talismans, peach talismans, and jade talismans have different functions and purposes. They are placed on a sandalwood tray with a yellow silk backing, giving them a very mysterious color.Taoist Qingdong is an eloquent auctioneer. Whenever a handsome Taoist boy brings up a talisman, he will explain the purpose, suitability for the crowd, materials and difficulty of making it one by one, so that people can understand it from the inside out. There is a desire to buy in my heart. An Land talisman, Jianba Rebirth talisman, Luo Zhenjun talisman, Golden Light talisman, Dou Mu Xuanling talisman... One after another, the talisman names we are familiar with were read out, and then they were secretly photographed to ask them to leave.Everyone who won the hidden bid was beaming, and some even couldn't suppress the excitement in their hearts and cheered loudly, as if they were in the stock market.Because the price is not announced, we don't know how much the transaction amount is here. In order not to arouse suspicion, when the mahogany-crafted An Land Amulet came out, Zamao Xiaodao filled 100,000 and put it into the black box. However, I didn't turn over a single blister, so I knew we couldn't afford this game. The 200,000 deposit, to be honest, almost wiped out half of my savings. The Invitation Talisman Fair was still in full swing, and Qing Xu, who was sitting on the side in front of him, was smiling, with a demeanor of a master without being surprised. Xiaojun and the others didn't buy any of them either, they all looked gloomy, looking at the dazzling array of talismans, and didn't speak. When the trade fair was coming to an end, Qingdong pointed to a piece of translucent suet nephrite, and said something with splashing foam. Suddenly, in the northeast direction of us, there was a sound of angry madness that didn't seem like a human being. With a roar, the wind howled.My heart skipped a beat, and I turned my head to look outside, only to see black mist billowing, and the street lamp that was always on, actually flickering, as if it was about to be blown out by the evil wind. The direction to the northeast...isn't it the central computer room?
