"Mr. Du, do you like flowers, too?"
From ancient times to modern times, I came out of the room and saw Du Yu in the yard, looking at the flowers and plants, then I asked with a smile.
In his yard, he planted a lot of flowers and plants, some of which came from extraordinary origins. For example, the pots of orchids in his garden are all rare varieties. They are either bought with a lot of money, or spread from friends.
It's a good time for flowers to bloom now. Many flowers and trees in the yard are blooming, with colorful flowers.
"It's very lively. Come out and have a look." Du Yu said with a smile.
From ancient times to modern times, he said with a smile: "I don't know what you do, Mr. Du. I think you're also doing big business."
The people who come here today are all people with great status, and those who can walk with them are definitely not simple.
Du Yu said with a smile: "one poor student will graduate soon."
From ancient times to modern times, he said with a smile: "Mr. Du is joking. When you graduate, you must be a person who wants to make a big career."
There was a voice in the living room. It seemed that someone had come. They went back to the living room.
"What's the matter with this boy?" In the room that just came out from ancient and modern times, a man saw Du Yu through the glass of the window. He couldn't help but be surprised.
This is Chen Zhiyuan.
Chen Zhiyuan, who planned to sell fake goods to Zhu Hongyu last time, was found out by Du Yu.
See Du Yu, angry Chen Zhiyuan teeth itch.
"Boy, you've ruined my big business. You wait. I'll have to deal with you sooner or later." Chen Zhiyuan gritted his teeth.
If that business is successful, he will get a song Ge kiln Tianqing bowl. He has already contacted his family, and he will sell it for 30 million yuan.
But the business is so yellow, which makes Chen Zhiyuan quite unwilling.
"This kid won't give me this business yellow, will he?"
Inexplicably, I don't know if it's because of seeing Du Yu. A bad idea suddenly pops up in Chen Zhiyuan's mind.
There were two more people in the living room, two elderly men.
One of them, Du Yu knew, was Tian Jianmin, whom he saw when he identified GUI Fengyu last time. Another was a man with gray hair, wearing a gray cloth, who looked like a good brow.
"Granddad Tian and granddad Kang, I have to trouble you about this." Mo Yuxue smiles to them, and then introduces them to Lin Yangfei and others: "Lin Yangfei, Han Zhongbao, Anya, this is grandfather Tian, this is grandfather Kang, Xiaoyu, you are just in time, I'll introduce you."
Tian Jianmin said with a smile: "Xiao Xue, I know Xiao Du. I don't need you to introduce him. Xiao Du, ha ha, but we've met again. Come on, I'll introduce you. This is Lao Kang. You can call him grandfather Kang or Mr. Kang Jushi."
Mo Yuxue came to identify the two of them.
Tian Jianmin's meeting with Du Yu was obviously more cordial than that of others.
The last time he identified the official porcelain of Song Dynasty, he also held his own identity and ridiculed Du Yu. Later, he was beaten in the face by Du Yu.
However, at their age, everything is very open, wrong is wrong, right is right, there is nothing that can't be ignored.
"Good grandfather Tian, good grandfather Kang." Du Yu said hello with a smile.
Mo Yuxue didn't expect that Du Yu knew Tian Jianmin. Seeing the intimacy between Tian Jianmin and Du Yu, their relationship seems very familiar.
Lin Yangfei and the other three also greet the elder one after another.
"Kant had a few visionaries." Kant put his left hand on his chest and slightly bowed to several people. When he spoke, he deliberately looked at Du Yu more. He didn't know why, Du Yu made him feel like a fellow.
A layman?
A man beyond the world?
Combined with the grey cloth clothes he was wearing, what did Du Yu think of.
Is Kant far from a Taoist?
Du Yu, a Buddhist monk and a Taoist priest, was confused.
"Mr. Tian and Mr. Kang, if you can come to me, it will make me shine." Since ancient times and modern times, he has been smiling at Er Lao Dao.
These two are also famous figures in the field of antiques in Jiangnan City.
Among them, Tian Jianmin prefers to collect some strange gadgets, and has a lot of research on these gadgets. This kind of gadget belongs to the miscellaneous direction in the collection line.
As for Kant yuan, he was a layman, and he had a lot of interest in geomantic omen magic tools, and he also knew how to make some small geomantic omen magic tools. Many people in Jiangnan City are attracted to fame and spend a lot of money to make geomantic instruments. The jade gourd dropped from his living room is the geomantic instrument made by Kant yuan.
"Boss Gu, you're welcome. I heard that you have some good things here. Lao Kang and I came here with admiration. We'll see by the way." Tian Jianmin said with a smile.
A few people exchanged greetings, and then came back to the topic. Mo Yuxue said the meaning of inviting you to come.
"Red sandalwood ebony Buddha bead bracelet, this is a good thing. Lao Kang, let me have a look first." Tian Jianmin picked up the red sandalwood and ebony bracelet and was very impolite to Kant.Kant lightly waved his hand, laughed and motioned him to continue.
"Red sandalwood and ebony, it's a good thing. It's really in line with the characteristics of red sandalwood and ebony to look at the handle and distinguish the lines." Tian Jianmin took out his presbyopic glasses, put the bracelet in a very close position and looked at it carefully. His mouth was broken and he said, "every bead carving is good. Every bead carving is beautiful. It's good. This bracelet alone is worth a lot of money."
"Eighteen, grandfather Tian, why eighteen? Is there anything particular about it?" Anya asked curiously.
Just now, Lin Yangfei and Mo Yuxue talked about a lot of allusions. After hearing what they said, they aroused Anya's curiosity about allusions.
Du Yu also wanted to know why it was 18.
Since there are 18 beads, there must be something particular about them.
Mo Yuxue and others are also curious, and they don't know. After all, the Buddhist beads themselves belong to something more eccentric. They don't know it's normal.
Tian Jianmin said with a smile: "of course, Buddhist beads are very particular. The number of each string of beads is quite learned."
Hearing that Tian Jianmin wanted to popularize knowledge for them, several young people raised their ears one after another.
"The number of Buddhist beads varies greatly among the classics. There are as many as nine kinds. In fact, there are different numbers of Buddhist beads because they have different meanings. "
"108 is the most common number, which is to show the verification of the hundred and eight samadhi, and to eliminate 108 kinds of troubles, so that the body and mind can reach a state of silence. As for 108 troubles, I won't talk to you."
"One thousand and eighty indicates that there are 108 kinds of troubles in each of the ten realms. The ten realms are divided into hell realm, hungry ghost realm, animal realm, Shura realm, human realm, heaven realm, sound realm, predestination realm, Bodhisattva realm and Buddha realm."
"Fifty four, fifty-four represents the fifty-four positions in the process of Bodhisattva's practice, including ten faiths, ten residences, ten actions, ten directions, ten places, plus four good root positions."
"Forty two represents the forty-two levels of the process of Bodhisattva's practice, namely, ten habitations, ten actions, ten directions, ten places, equal awareness and wonderful awareness."
Seeing that all the people didn't say anything, they were listening to him about the knowledge of Buddhist beads, which made Tian Jianmin quite happy. After all, these things seem cumbersome, and if they are so interested, he is also interested in going on.
"The thirty-six are usually thought to be convenient to carry, so they are divided into thirty-six. It contains the principle of seeing the big from the small, so it is the same as 108. "
"Twenty seven represents the twenty-seven sages of Hinayana's four-way cultivation, that is, the eighteen scholars of the first four-way and three-way cultivation and" grandfather Tian, I really can't imagine that there is so much knowledge in it? " Lin Yang Fei Road.
"It's really troublesome. There are so many things in a string of Buddhist beads. By the way, grandfather Tian, you should first see if this is a Buddhist bead bracelet." Anyado.
Du Yu was a little dizzy, but he had to sigh that the Chinese heritage is really broad and profound, and he still has a lot to learn in the future.
"Red sandalwood and ebony are true. As for whether they are Buddhist beads or not, you ask me, actually I don't know. I have to let Lao Kang come for this." Tian Jianmin handed the Buddhist bead bracelet to kantyuan. "Lao Kang, you'd better talk to some young people."
Kant took the beads from afar, then held them in his hands, narrowed his eyes slightly, moved his lips silently, and twisted them one by one in his hands.
"There is no Buddha's head in this string of beads bracelet. In fact, many people see beads with a Buddha's head in the middle, which is the same as a small gourd. Buddhists call it Buddha. Why the Buddha head is added? That's because when chanting sutras, it's necessary to twist the Buddhist beads. One section is just to finish twisting a string of Buddhist beads. " Tian continued.
After twisting the bracelet a few times, Kant opened his eyes and said, "the difference between the Buddhist bead bracelet and the ordinary Bracelet lies in a Buddha. It doesn't mean that a monk once wears it is called a Buddhist bead. He needs to add Buddhist power to the bracelet when chanting sutras. That is to say, Buddhist power is on the bracelet for a long time. Even the ordinary bracelet, after adding Buddhist power, is also called a Buddhist bead."
"This red sandalwood ebony Buddha bead bracelet is really a good thing. Each one contains Buddhist power." Kant is far away.
The two masters came to the conclusion of this string of Buddhist beads bracelet. From ancient times to modern times, there is a smile between the eyebrows, while Anya is quite straightforward. "Well, since the two masters have said that, boss Gu, come according to the price you said."
In ancient and modern times, when I wanted to say yes, I heard someone say so.
"Sister Xiaoxue, don't worry. Can I have a look?"
