Tan Mingchun's office, Tan Xiaotian, Tan Mingchun and Hao Jianyutong sat around in front of the coffee table.

Tan Xiaotian gave a detailed explanation to the three of them.

"Now there are twelve directors of the Hong Kong Island Board, I am confident that six of them will support us. Director Shi Yihao Shi is the relationship that Sister Chun found. King Ma Guo Tai'an is one. He has clearly expressed his support for me. In addition, the Li family, Zheng family, and the brave Mr. Xiang, and the boss Yang of Yinghuang, all agreed to help me convince a director, so we now account for half of them."

Hao Jianyutong was overjoyed when he heard this. They had been in Yanjing for half a year and were struggling on the construction site every day. They were hoping that they would make a lot of money after the Yanjing branch opened in the future.

Tan Mingchun pondered for a moment, "There are only six, and it's not safe, so I have to get another one."

She said to herself: "Who else has a relationship with Hong Kong Island?"

After thinking hard for a long time, Tan Mingchun raised his head and smiled bitterly: "I am old and can't remember it for a while. Forget it, there is still some time before the board meeting is held, so let's look for it slowly."

"Xiaotian, let's go now! I will tell you the origin of this treasure on the way."

As soon as Tan Mingchun finished speaking, Hao Jianyutong immediately stood up and said goodbye.

Both of them were famous figures in Shengtian, but in Yanjing, they both knew themselves and knew that this branch could be built entirely by Tan Mingchun and Tan Xiaotian because they performed extremely low-key.

The four of them went out together.

Hao Jianyutong went back to the horse farm construction site directly, Tan Xiaotian got into Tan Mingchun's car and headed straight to the second ring road of Yanjing.

"Last time you said that the ancestor of the Li family believed in Buddhism, I asked someone to ask around the capital and got a news from a large collector that he had a string of beads of the hand twisted beads of the living Buddha of the Yellow Sect. It has been more than 200 years since then, and it is very rare. Let's go and see the real thing today."

The car was moving slowly. Tan Mingchun looked out the window and sighed, "The traffic jam in Yanjing is getting worse and worse. Now there are more and more rich people, and anyone can afford a car."

Tan Xiaotian thought, I’ve only been there, and in five or six years, driving in Yanjing is simply a practice, either becoming a Buddha or a demon.

The car finally crawled into an old alley. The alley was too narrow to drive in.

Tan Mingchun took Tan Xiaotian to walk, and the two of them chatted while walking, "Xiaotian, do you believe it?"

The courtyard house here has been soaring, and the most expensive ones have risen to 10 million."

"It will rise in the future."

Tan Xiaotian said casually.

Tan Mingchun stopped and showed a strange expression, "Are you so sure?"

So do you want to buy one?”

"Okay!"

In fact, Tan Xiaotian had thought that he would invest in Siheyuan. Now he would buy it and transfer it in ten years and get a return rate of about ten times. If he bought it in the past two years, he would make more money.

The reason why I didn’t take action was that this courtyard house could invest, but it was really inconvenient to live there.

First of all, the courtyards are basically concentrated in old alleys in the two districts of Dongcheng and Xicheng within the Second Ring Road. The road is narrow and the car cannot enter. Many old courtyards do not have toilets. The circuits and water supply are problems. These old houses are cultural relics and cannot be made into major changes. It is better to live in a villa than to be comfortable.

Apart from being able to pretend to be a boast, it is too impractical.

"You can see the Forbidden City from the roof of my house."

This sentence caused quite a stir on the Internet back then.

But if you think about it, what if you can see the Forbidden City?

However, since Tan Mingchun has a way, Tan Xiaotian doesn't mind buying a few now. Anyway, there is too much cash now and there is no place to spend it.

Another thing is that if there is a drink party in the future, I pretend to say something like "You can see the Forbidden City from the roof of my house" and it will be full of style! "Okay, it happened that someone told me a while ago. If you are interested, I will pay attention to it for you. By the way, I will buy one myself. It is also good to stay here for a few days in autumn.

While talking, the two arrived in front of a courtyard house. Tan Mingchun raised his hand and knocked on the door knocker.

A thunderous barking sound suddenly came in the yard, followed by an old male voice, "Shut up, a distinguished guest has arrived."

The dog let out a whine, probably because it was kicked by its owner and ran away with its tail between its legs.

The door opened, and an old man wearing a double-breasted Tang suit and white hair stepped out, followed by a middle-aged man, who could tell from his appearance that the two were father and son.

Tan Mingchun gave a gift first, "Master Ma, I'm disturbing. Today I will take my brother-in-law to see the string of hand-twisted beads."

Tan Xiaotian, who was standing behind, breathed suddenly. This sister Chun had not given up on his and Tan Mingyan's affairs yet.

"Welcome, welcome, please come in."

The old man, known as Master Ma, smiled and made a call.

The middle-aged man behind him was waiting for Tan Mingchun and Tan Xiaotian to walk into the yard, and turned around and closed the yard gate.

"Mr. Tan, please come here. As soon as I receive your call, I will come and wait."

The middle-aged man respects Tan Mingchun very much and always bows slightly when he speaks.

"Mr. Ma, don't be so polite. I should thank you for helping me find my favorite thing."

As the two of them spoke, they followed the old man into the main room.

The old man opened the drawer, took out a few pairs of gloves, and each of them gave a pair of them.

The middle-aged man was afraid that Tan Mingchun would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained, "Mr. Tan, my father is older and has more rules. Please take care of him."

"It's okay, this is the rules of the antiques business, we understand."

Tan Mingchun and Tan Xiaotian were wearing white gloves. Master Ma took out a brocade box from under the table. After opening it, a string of light maroon-red wooden hand-twisted beads lay quietly on the black velvet. It was nothing surprising about these hand-twisted beads. However, the day after year, the patina was very sufficient, and a layer of soft light was emitted under the sunlight. There was a nine-eyed dzi bead in the middle of the wooden beads that were hand-twisted beads, which looked a bit unique.

Tan Xiaotian didn't understand these, and he couldn't tell what material it was made of. Apart from this Nine-Eyed Dzi bead, he couldn't see the difference between this string of hand-twisted beads and other other things.

"Master Ma, please tell us the origin of these hand-twisted beads, we don't know much."

Tan Xiaotian asked politely.

"Okay, two distinguished guests, before I tell you, I have a question, I want to ask you two first.

May I ask if you bought these hand-twisted beads for your own use or for others? Who can I use them for your own use?

Who will I give to if I give it to someone?”

"Master Ma, I have a female elder. Next month is her 100th birthday and she also believes in Buddhism, so I want to give her a gift related to Buddhism. I happened to encounter this string of hand beads. The master asked, is there any other matters here?"

Master Ma stroked his white beard, "Then there is no problem.

The reason I asked this is because the string of hand-twisted beads are the relics of Jipadorje, a living woman living Buddha in the late Qing Dynasty. The female living Buddha held this bead to recite scriptures day and night during his lifetime. This object had long been immersed in Buddhism and was a holy object. The wood is very ordinary, which is a common miscellaneous wood. The nine-eyed bead inside has a great origin. It was given to the female living Buddha by Baima Danzeng, Tibetan Buddhism at that time, and it is of great significance."

"It is because this string of hand-twisted beads are things of female living Buddhas, and men should not wear them. That's why I asked this question just now. Since it is given to female elders and a hundred-year-old man who believes in Buddhism, this thing is the most suitable one."

Master Ma jokingly talked about the origin of these hand-twisted beads.

Tan Xiaotian was also very eye-opening, but he didn't expect that a string of small hand-twisted beads would have so many allusions.
