Chapter 37 The thirty-sixth well-dressed benefactor Liu

According to Jiechen's observation, among the many benefactors who came to Tianming Temple, those who came from different places still had some differences in their attire. Although Jie Chen couldn't tell whether the quality of their clothes was good or bad, and how much they cost, but basically, the benefactors in big cities were more particular than those in small towns.Their clothes look crisper and their hairstyles neater. In the impression of Jie Chen, Liu Benefactor from Shanghai is such a person who pays attention to dressing.Donor Liu usually speaks in a gentle and polite way, which makes people feel easy to get along with.He is very concerned about his appearance, even when talking to people, he would unconsciously pull the corners of his clothes from time to time, or straighten his hair that was a little messed up by the mountain wind.

Once when Jie Chen was chatting with Liu benefactor, Liu benefactor mentioned the price of his clothes for some reason, which was a price that surprised Jie Chen.For refraining from anger, that is an astonishingly high price. Junior Brother Jie Ao later calculated, based on the degree of wear and tear of the clothes worn by the people in the temple, the Buddhist monk's robes that can be bought in exchange for a piece of clothing of the benefactor Liu is enough to wear Jie Anger and Jie Ao for hundreds of years.Even a little monk like Junior Brother Jie Chi, who rolls on the ground at every turn, and whose clothes are extremely worn, can still wear them for thirty years.Moreover, Junior Brother Jieao's calculations are still very conservative, because Junior Brother Jieao's hypothetical premise is that after the age of 30, Junior Brother Jiechi will still maintain his current level of activity, and his clothes will still maintain such a degree of wear and tear.

Some time ago, Jie Chen met Liu benefactor again.Among the benefactors from other places, benefactor Liu should come quite frequently. Including this time, Jie Chen has met benefactor Liu almost seven or eight times. When I saw Benefactor Liu this time, he was a little different from his usual relaxed and calm look, and looked a little depressed.Benefactor Liu told Jie Chen that he encountered a thief on the way here, and lost all the money in his wallet. Although the amount was not too much, the worst thing was that he also lost several documents and cards. It is also very troublesome to complete the formalities.

Because he was worried that the benefactor Liu would not have the travel expenses to go home, Jie Chen asked a few more questions. Fortunately, the benefactor Liu said that his money was distributed separately, and there was no big loss.However, Liu benefactor still sighed and said that the theft was the third time that he had been patronized by thieves in the past two years. Jie Chen sympathizes with Liu benefactor's experience. For Jie Chen who has never been patronized by thieves, Liu benefactor who has been stolen in succession is indeed very unlucky. But Jie Chen thought again, maybe the encounter between Liu benefactor and Jie An was not accidental, and what really brought trouble to Liu benefactor might be his neat and tidy clothes.

Jie Chen remembers that Donor Liu said that he is in charge of marketing and has many contacts with customers on weekdays. Dressing well is a kind of politeness, and it is also good for him to negotiate business. It is this kind of glamorous attire that can increase the success rate of Liu benefactor's business, which caused Liu benefactor to be coveted by thieves.If Jie Chen, who was wearing a patched monk's robe, was walking on the road, the thieves might have turned around and left immediately. Speaking of which, many things in life are relative. Things that make people enviable can also make people envious. The more beautiful things are, the more they are the root of disasters.

In reality, beautiful people often lack vigilance, while ordinary people only care about inferiority for their mediocre side. Perhaps these are not the correct way to live in the world.
