Maoshan Little Taoist

Chapter 13 Make Money

Because the child showed his face in front of the whole building, all the women in the community where Lin Xian lived knew that there was a beautiful and outrageous child in Lin Xian's family.

But when the child became famous, Lin Xian's troubles became more and more serious.He had only been here not long ago, except that he would meet each other upstairs and downstairs in the building where he lived, other people didn't pay much attention to him.

But because of the child, everyone in the community knew about him and the child.Sometimes when he just went out, he would be asked with a smile where the child was going.

And what gave Lin Xian the most headache was Grandma Li, Sister Wang and her little girl who lived in the same building with him. These three people didn't know what was going on, but they would come to Lin Xian's house almost every day, or give some Dumplings and glutinous rice balls, or some homemade pickles, or a bag of snacks for children.

Lin Xian was not a person who would reject others, not to mention that these people still had good intentions, so he had no choice but to accept the enthusiasm of these neighbors silently, and put aside the matter of sending the children away by the way.

Time flies, the child has lived in Lin Xian's house for a week.

During this week, Lin Xian's house has added a lot of children's things, from his clothes and shoes to daily necessities.

In fact, Lin Xian himself didn't want to buy these for the children, firstly because he didn't think it would be a waste to buy them for how long the children could stay, and secondly because he didn't have much money on him.

But the idea is always not as cruel as the reality. Once the petite girl downstairs came up to find a child to play with, but when she walked around Lin Xian's house, she didn't see anything about the child.

At that time, she didn't feel anything about playing with the children as usual, but just casually mentioned a few words to her mother when she got home.

Then, when Sister Wang heard her daughter mention this, she immediately thought that Lin Xian was only in his early twenties, and he must not be able to take care of a child, so she came to the door and talked to Lin Xian in detail.

After Mrs. Wang's enthusiastic and considerate lecture, Lin Xian sent him out with a smile, and then looked at the still ignorant child with a blank expression.

Finally, on the same day, Lin Xian took the child to the commercial street, and bought back all the things that Sister Wang said the child needed at one time.

Children's things should not be greedy for cheap, Sister Wang was afraid that Lin Xian would not buy them, and even listed what brands should be bought for Lin Xian.

Lin Xian had no choice but to follow suit, otherwise he could be sure that as long as he made a mistake, Sister Wang and the others would make up for him out of their own pockets.

After buying a lot of things, Lin Xian's wallet, which was already empty, lost more than half of it.

With the money gone, Lin Xian could only put finding work on the agenda.But he didn't have a clue for several days.He grew up in Maoshan since he was a child. The only thing he learned in the first 20 years was catching ghosts and eliminating demons, and he didn't understand anything else.

If you can't find a job, you won't have money, and if you don't have money, you won't be able to eat. Lin Xian became more and more irritable. He got angry for several days and developed several bubbles in his mouth.

On this day, he took his children to the street again after having breakfast at home as usual.After turning around the street a few times, just when he thought he was returning in vain like the previous few days, a middle-aged man suddenly grabbed him.

The man pestered Lin Xian and introduced his reason for coming.The man was from a photo studio, and since it was a new store opening, he wanted to create something to attract customers, so he set his sights on children.

The man told Lin Xian that as long as he was willing to let him take a few pictures of the children, he would pay him five thousand.

Five thousand is really a lot for a poor man who needs to eat dirt and raise children, so Lin Xian agreed without thinking.

I took the child and followed the man to the photo studio. The child is very obedient, as long as he can see Lin Xian, he will not make a fuss, so the photo was taken without much effort.

The middle-aged man was very satisfied with the effect of the photo, and added another 2000 yuan when Lin Xian left. He also smiled and told Lin Xian that he would send a copy to him when the photo came out.

Lin Xian is not very interested in children's photos, but he is very interested in money.Seeing that he only got 7000 yuan for taking a few photos of the children, he felt for the first time that it would be good to keep the children.

After being abused for several days without money, now that he suddenly had such a large amount of money, Lin Xian proudly took the child to KFC, and ordered a lot of things boldly.

The child has been with Lin Xian for so many days, and it's no longer as good as the one who just came here.

Usually at home, he can also eat with a small spoon by himself, but this is the first time Lin Xian brought him to eat something like KFC, so he can only stare blankly at Lin Xian holding a large chicken drumstick to his mouth Rise, don't move by yourself.

Lin Xian took a few bites of the hamburger to relieve his hunger, but also found that the child hadn't moved.He thought for a while and immediately understood what was going on, so he put down the hamburger in his hand, picked up the small hamburger in front of the child, and handed it to his mouth.

Seeing his movements, the child subconsciously opened his mouth. Lin Xian smiled, put the burger into his mouth, and said softly, "Bite."

After hearing this, the child took a small bite, and the different deliciousness in the mouth made the child unconsciously open his eyes and chew with puffed cheeks.

Lin Xian laughed unconsciously as he watched the child eating.He put down the hamburger, and naturally picked up other things to feed the children.

During the time he was with the children, if Lin Xian had the fastest growth in anything, it would probably be his feeding skills.

The order was a bit too much, so Lin Xian packed it up and took it home without finishing his meal.

Because of the sudden extra income, Lin Xian didn't have to worry too much about money for the remaining few days. He took the children out at regular times every day, and then the two of them ate and drank together to be happy.

Two days later, Lin Xian received a call from the photo studio, saying that the photos had been edited and asked him to get them.Lin Xian thought that it was all right, so he took the child with him.

Lin Xian was still the middle-aged man who received the photo. He handed the photo to Lin Xian and said excitedly, "Mr. Lin, the effect of the photo is very good. Our studio would like to discuss with Lin Xian. I hope you can give the child's portrait right." Sell ​​it to us."

Lin Xian took the photo, glanced at it, and his heart skipped a beat.He knew that the child was good-looking, but he was more attractive than usual in the photo.

With a small face, delicate and immature eyebrows and eyes, the child sitting among a pile of dolls is as beautiful as a New Year picture doll, but what makes Lin Xian tremble most is the child's eyes, those black jewel-like eyes look through the camera , became more vivid, the eyes were black and white, clear like the snow in the distant mountains, incredibly clean.

Lin Xian suddenly remembered that his master once said that a person's eyes are the true reflection of a person's heart, and only the most light and clean heart can have the cleanest eyes.Boy, maybe he's not necessarily a bad guy, is he?

"Mr. Lin?" Seeing that Lin Xian was staring at the photo without responding, the middle-aged man couldn't help reminding him aloud.

Lin Xian immediately came to his senses when he yelled, and he immediately filtered through his mind what the man just said. The man just said that he should sell the child's portrait rights to him, right?Just how to sell?After thinking for a while, Lin Xian asked, "Resale the portrait right? How do you sell it?"

The middle-aged man saw that Lin Xian didn't intend to directly refuse, and immediately explained to him more eagerly, "The resale of portrait rights means that all future photos of the child cannot be used anywhere except us." He paused for fear that Lin Xian would He refused and continued, "I know this kind of request would be too much, but Mr. Lin, please believe that our photo studio will definitely pay you enough for Mr. Lin, and in the future your children can take any photos for free in our building."

After hearing what the other party said, Lin Xian's eyes flashed and he said, "What about me?"

The middle-aged man didn't understand what he meant and looked at him suspiciously.

Lin Xian explained with a serious face, "Children can take pictures with you for free, but what about me? Can't I?"

Middle-aged man: "...Only, as long as Mr. Lin agrees to resell the portrait rights, we can also add this condition."

Lin Xian raised his eyebrows, watching the middle-aged man silently did not answer immediately.

The middle-aged man felt a little uneasy when he looked at him, and couldn't help asking, "Lin, Mr. Lin, what do you think?"

Lin Xian: "How much do you plan to pay?"

The middle-aged man looked at Lin Xian's expressionless face, thought for a while and stretched out five fingers hesitantly.

Lin Xian frowned, "Five thousand?" Is this too little?Last time I gave [-] for the photo alone.

"[-]." The middle-aged man said, "Mr. Lin, our studio is willing to sell the child's portrait rights to you for [-]. I wonder if you are satisfied with this price?"

Satisfied, very satisfied!Very satisfied!Lin Xian's heart was agitated, but his face was still calm.

Looking at Lin Xian's expression, the middle-aged man thought that he was not satisfied with the price, and felt even more uneasy. Finally, he couldn't help hesitating and stretched out three fingers, "Mr. Lin?"

Lin Xian's breathing was stagnant, and his brain was spinning rapidly, three plus five, eight.Eighty-eight thousand! ! ! ?Lin Xian was shocked by this number, his nose flared slightly, and his heart beat violently.

Seeing that Lin Xian still didn't respond, the middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said fiercely, thinking that the photo of the child would have an impact on the studio, "One hundred thousand, Mr. Lin, this is the biggest step back we can make. If you …”

"make a deal!!"

Middle-aged man: "..." Damn it, it must be on purpose, it must be! ! !

In the end, when Lin Xian walked out of the photo studio with the card that had just deposited 10 yuan, his heart still seemed to have not settled down to the ground, and he felt like he was dreaming.

It wasn't until the child standing beside him pulled his sleeve that he suddenly woke up.

After waking up, Lin Xian suddenly picked up the child, and kissed his immature face hard. "Child, we are rich! We are rich! I didn't expect you to be so useful. It was so right to keep you in the first place, hahaha."

The child still didn't understand what happened, but Lin Xian's obviously happy appearance made him notice it. Seeing Lin Xian smiling happily, the child also rolled his eyes and grinned.

In the bustling streets, pedestrians and vehicles were still shuttling back and forth, the bright yellow sun in the sky was shining, and the golden light was shining on the innocent smiling face of the child, Lin Xian's heart suddenly trembled for no reason.

He softened his eyes for a moment, raised the corner of his mouth and leaned over to kiss the child's face, and said softly, "Actually, you are pretty good."

The child didn't speak. He actually didn't understand what Lin Xian said, nor did he know what Lin Xian was doing.Just thinking about Lin Xian's appearance, he also learned to lean in front of Lin Xian, and then quickly imprinted himself on Lin Xian's lips.

Lin Xian was taken aback by the child's actions, his eyes were wide open, and he couldn't turn his head around for a long time.After a while, he woke up, stared at the child's ignorant look for a few seconds, smiled helplessly, put the child on the ground and rubbed his head.

Later, on the same day, Lin Xian generously took the child to the playground. After playing with him for a whole day, he took the child to the mall to buy a bunch of clothes and daily necessities at night. I didn't get home until after eleven o'clock.

When he got home, the child was already so tired that he fell asleep first. Lin Xian hugged him, carefully put him on the bed, went to the bathroom and took a simple shower, then climbed into the bed tiredly, and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, when Lin Xian was half asleep and half awake, he always felt that there was something pressing on him. He frowned in confusion and turned over to avoid it, but the heavy object always stuck to his body as if it had eyes, and he couldn't even shake it off. open.

Lin Xian was really exhausted, he didn't want to wake up after being tormented like this, and couldn't get rid of it, so he had to endure the pain and continue to sleep.

The next morning, Lin Xian woke up, looked around the room, but found nothing, so he scratched his head wondering if he was just dreaming.

He couldn't find any problems, so Lin Xian didn't worry about it anymore, so he took the time to go, so after washing up, he went to the kitchen to make breakfast without stopping.Then after the breakfast was ready, he saw that there were no children at the door of the kitchen, so he guessed that he was probably tired from playing yesterday, so he hasn't gotten up yet.

After serving the prepared breakfast on the dining table, Lin Xian turned around and went back to the room to wake up the children.The child was sleeping deeply, but was suddenly woken up by Lin Xian, and opened his eyes to look at him in a daze, with a cute and cute expression on his little face.

Lin Xian was so itchy by his appearance, he couldn't help but brushed his hair with itchy hands, and then calmly told him to get up for dinner.

The child was very well-behaved, and he didn't get angry when he was woken up. He obediently let Lin Xian change his clothes, brush his teeth and wash his face, and then followed him to the living room for dinner.

During the meal, Lin Xian received a call from his second senior brother, to the effect that he was told that a regular customer of his used to come to him for cleaning business, but it was inconvenient for him to be in other provinces, so he asked Lin Xian to do it for him. go.

Lin Xian himself really wanted to find a job, but he didn't know much about cleaning, so he said to his second senior brother, "Brother, I don't know how to do cleaning. If you ask me to do it, I can't do it either. "

His second senior brother: "Can you catch ghosts?"

Lin Xian: "Of course I will."

His second senior brother: "That's fine, I'll send you the address later, and then you can go by yourself." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

Lin Xian hugged and fed the elderly machine he bought for 100 yuan for a long time, and finally he had no choice but to confirm that his second senior brother had hung up the phone and dumped the stall to him.

Lin Xian scratched his hair irritably, what did his second senior brother mean?Does catching ghosts have anything to do with cleaning?He didn't make it clear when he entrusted things to others, and the second senior brother was still as unreliable as before!

After muttering indignantly for a long time, another text message appeared on Lin Xian's cell phone. He opened it and saw that it was the address his senior brother said, and then there were some explanations that he just finished talking.

After reading the text message, Lin Xian understood what his senior brother meant by cleaning. It turned out that he was going to help others catch ghosts and watch Feng Shui.

These are his professional jobs, and seeing this Lin Xian lights up his entire body.During this period of time, he wandered around looking for a job every day, and it was scary that he was too excited.In the 20 years on the mountain, he has never learned anything except catching ghosts and eliminating evil spirits. After he went down the mountain, he realized that he was almost a "disabled person".

Now seeing the task that his second senior brother gave him, Lin Xian suddenly found confidence, and he felt that his life was full of hope again.

Comrade Lin, who was full of confidence, cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks swiftly, and then went back to the room happily and rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, and took out the three things that the master gave him before he went down the mountain.

The same is a black bowl with several holes in it, the same is a one-meter-long banner, and the other is a set of dusty Taoist robes.

These three things are said to have been used by their ancestors in Maoshan. They have boundless magic power and have always been regarded as the treasures of Maoshan.

Lin Xian has never used these things, nor has he seen his master use them, so he doesn't know if they are useful.However, since his master had told him thousands of times before going down the mountain that it was the treasure of Zhenshan, it must not be too bad.

After taking out these few things, Lin Xian ran to his second senior brother's room and searched through boxes and cabinets to find some tools for exorcising evil.After everything was almost ready, he took the guy and the child to take a taxi to the place on the text message.
