I thought I had dug up some breaking news. Fang Mancang, who was not good-looking to begin with and even a bit sloppy and dark, looked particularly wretched at the moment as he made those wagging gestures.

When Director Qi saw the other party's joking expression, he quickly lowered his voice and said:

"Shut up, what are you thinking about? This is the God of Wealth, a very big one, don't offend him. If you offend him, you will die."

"Who is she? She's so powerful, but I didn't realize it. Where does she come from? Apart from her good looks, I don't see any difference between her and others?" Fang Mancang muttered.

He was just joking. He knew Lao Qi's character well. Since the other party said it so emphatically, it must be true.

But my curious heart was piqued and I couldn't help but want to get to the bottom of it, so I kept chattering.

Director Qi: "This is a big boss from Shanghai. I don't know where she came from, but she is very powerful. She has placed many orders from us. She came here to have a look. Don't talk nonsense. If she places an order with you in the end, you have to give her the lowest price you can."

"I'm giving her the lowest price. Why? Are you going to frame me?"

"Fuck you, when have I ever framed you? If we didn't have a good relationship, I wouldn't have brought him here. Anyway, I've said everything I need to say. It's up to you whether you can seize this opportunity. But let me be frank. Even if the deal doesn't work out, there's still friendship. Don't offend anyone in the process."

As for Xia Ran, she heard every word of the conversation between Director Qi and the boss surnamed Fang. It was because she had very sensitive and good ears.

She guessed it almost right by listening and guessing.

But she pretended not to hear and continued watching the fish.

After I had understood everything, I turned around and started chatting with Mr. Fang.

In the end, he bought all the wild yellow croakers and the few bluefin tunas in the store.

However, tuna at that time was not as expensive as it is in later generations, and the price had not yet been driven up by the daily life.

Finally, we ordered some yellow croaker and sultan fish, which were specially recommended by Director Qi and Boss Fang.

For this purpose, I specially bought two super large fishing tools from Boss Fang, specifically for catching these live fish.

As for tuna, it can only be packed in ice cubes and foam boxes.

When Xia Ran left, Boss Fang reluctantly said, "Do you want more yellow croaker and tuna? If you do, I'll save them for you in the next few days."

"Go ahead."

"Do you want any other fish?"

"I don't want the others." She wanted to order more, but it was hard to pack and transport them, and the fish had to be sold fresh.

Xia Ran once again lamented that her space was still not big enough.

Director Qi said: "You don't want that much fresh fish!"

Xia Ran: "It's not easy to transport, and the transportation cost is too high. I want to order more, but the reality does not allow it. I'd better order a few more batches of canned food and dried fish, which are easier to store and transport."

When Director Qi heard this, he realized that, as he had guessed, Boss Xia was only buying the first batch of goods. There would be a second and third batch. "Yes, yes, that makes sense. Dried fish and canned food are indeed more suitable for you. You can order more."

"Well, that's all we have for now."

According to the plan, she should have gone to the next city, but she had to order some new things and had to stay in this city for a while longer.

In the following days, apart from receiving the goods, Xia Ran wandered around to various small restaurants to taste the local delicacies.

Of course, I will also take time to wander around and see the local customs and practices.

Having also heard about the famous Chair Tomb in the area, Xia Ran specially called a car and went to see this magnificent sight.

The stone tombs scattered all over the mountains look both luxurious and large-scale.

Most of these cemeteries were built in the mountains, with higher backs and lower fronts, and large handrails on both sides of the gently sloping cemetery - semi-circular tomb frames (tomb frames).

The wall slopes down from the back to the front in a gentle slope, presenting the shape of a chair as a whole. From a distance, it looks like a super armchair with its back embedded in the mountains.

A luxurious "chair tomb" usually covers an area of ​​several hundred square meters.

"The chair tombs used as burial sites are usually divided into three layers at most, with the ancestors at the top, the fathers in the middle, and the children at the bottom.

A chair tomb can hold up to three generations of people, thus becoming a family burial site.

According to the statement here, the back of the chair is against the mountain behind, which means having a backer.

This custom can be traced back to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Most of them are built by officials and merchants, and it is also a symbol of the family's ability and strength." The driver explained in a torrent of words.

It is said that the reason for this construction is because these chairs are like imperial chairs, and in ancient times only officials could sit on imperial chairs.

In the minds of ordinary people, officials will remain officials even after their death.

Arranging a throne (chair tomb) for one's ancestors, hoping that one's ancestors can serve as officials in the underworld and also bless their descendants so that they can get promoted and make fortunes in real life, is a beautiful expectation.

It has been passed down to this day, and as long as you have money, land, filial piety and interest, you can build it at will.

Especially in recent years, this group of people who got rich first built these chair tombs more and more majestic and luxurious, whether out of filial piety, to show off their financial resources and strength, or because of comparison with each other.

I even felt like I couldn't afford to die because my expenses were rising.

I have to admit that people here are really willing to spend money on this.

It is true that people are shaped by the land and water they live in. The customs and habits vary greatly from place to place.

This can also be considered as a burial art that is a symbiosis of traditional feng shui and culture.

Xia Ran has learned a lot today.

On the way back to the city, the driver introduced and talked to Xia Ran about many legends about the Chair Tomb.

Quite interesting.
