Chapter 99 The ninety-eighth stone of Xianshan

Xianshan is very short and consists of several hills. Xianshan is also very special. Walking along the hillside, there is a long gravel valley. There is no plant growth or water flow in this area, but a lot of large and small stones are piled up. Small oddly shaped stones. Jie Chen didn't know how this special landform was formed, but he just heard from Master Zhihui that there used to be a clear spring here, but for some reason it dried up, so this special landform was left behind. For a while, stone handicrafts suddenly became popular in Miao Town.During that time, when Jie Chen and Junior Brother Jie Ao went to the town together, they would always see a lot of stone handicrafts in front of many stalls in the town square, some small bonsai placed in flower pots, and some A large rockery rock at the entrance of the store.

Different from other handicrafts made of stone, the stone handicrafts in Miaozhen are all made of natural stones, and a considerable part of the raw materials come from Xianshan. There are also differences in the business among many stone handicraft shops. There is a shop run by a benefactor who is familiar with Jie Chen, and the business is relatively much better. Once chatting with Li benefactor, Jie Ao couldn't help but joked with him.Jie Ao said that Li's business is really worthless, because the raw materials are free, and even the processing fee is very little. However, Li Benefactor said that what Junior Brother Jie Ao said was right or wrong, because although the raw materials are free, the selection of this pile of stones is a highly technical job.

Donor Li said that he would judge the plasticity of these stones based on their shapes, and then give them some meaning. Only when the customers who bought the stones agreed with Donor Li's ideas would it be considered a success. Jie Chen suddenly remembered that a few days ago, he saw Li benefactor picking up stones at the door of his small shop. These were some stones that Li benefactor's assistants brought from Xianshan Mountain that they thought were worth processing. At that time, Li benefactor was sitting in front of the pile of stones, picking and picking. He held each stone in his hand, observed it carefully, and then divided the pile of stones into two small piles.

Li Benefactor said that the pile on the left was sent to be processed into handicrafts by others, while the pile on the right belonged to the secondary elimination of stones, and they would not be transported back to Xianshan, but directly transported to the town Pave a gravel road. Looking at these two piles of stones from the perspective of refraining from anger, it seems that there is not much difference. Jiechen asked Benefactor Li what criteria he used to distinguish the pile of stones, and Benefactor Li said: It is mainly based on feeling. Stop thinking about anger, in fact, from the perspective of stones, the fate of each stone is very helpless.Some stones will be placed on the stage to be admired by others, while others will be stepped on and ignored, all of which may be caused by Li benefactor's thought.

People may be the same. Even people with the same quality will have quite different lives due to small changes. Most people will be swayed by fate and have no way to resist. Fate may be unfair, you can hardly change it, you can resent, but you can also accept it with a smile, why not lie happily under your feet like a stone that may have been turned into a handicraft, even if you are stepped on, you have to crunch and laugh Voice? Anywhere, anytime, the only person who can stop you from laughing is yourself. Happiness is always within your reach, as long as you want to be happy, you will be happy.
