In this case, Ding Hongba was also so angry that he didn't say anything anymore. Anyway, he did what Ding Sheng said. You can think whatever you want. If you want to buy, buy it. If you don't buy, don't say anything. He didn't bother to say anything more.
.
When everyone saw that Ding Hongba was silent, they thought he was tired and showed his weakness and did not dare to say anything more. Therefore, they all shook their heads and lamented how pitiful he was, and wanted to leave.
At this time, an old man and a young man came to the side. The old man was dressed in rags, his hair was disheveled, he was leaning on a bamboo pole and holding a broken bowl, and there was a child beside him, about six or seven years old.
Obviously, this is a beggar. When the two came to Ding Hongba, the old man asked: "Uncle, can this secret book you mentioned only cost ten copper coins?"
Oh? A beggar actually believed Ding Hongba’s words. Others couldn’t help but stop and watch, with a hint of playful smile on their faces. They wanted to see if this beggar could really use money to buy
, and whether the so-called Ding family really earns ten copper coins from others.
At this time, Ding Hongba was a little surprised. It's really hard to tell this person. He actually believed it when he was a beggar. And do those rich people lack these ten coins in their pockets? Spend ten coins to buy a fake
The secret book is not a loss, right? But why are you not willing to buy it? Haha, this is the so-called cleverness, or it is for some subconscious face issues.
"Old man, this secret book sells for ten copper coins. What, you want it?" Ding Hongba looked at the old man and the children, especially the child, his face was full of longing, his eyes were shining with expectation, and his heart couldn't help but move. This
The child has such an amazing spirit.
"Well... it's all my grandson who wants to buy it. What the hell are you buying cheat books for when a bad old man like me is about to be buried..." The old man said, trembling and taking it out of his arms for a long time, while saying, "It's just
My grandson doesn’t have the qualifications for the Five Elements, so no one wants him. I looked pitiful and felt panicked, so I came here to give it a try..."
The old man is really honest. These days, if you want to get ahead, you have to practice martial arts, but martial arts requires qualifications. This kid has no qualifications in the Five Elements, and his family is obviously very poor. It is not an option to beg on the street with the old man every day. No wonder I want to buy secret books.
Well, it’s a dead horse being treated as a living horse anyway.
The old man trembled and fished for a long time, but he only took out six copper coins. Then he looked at Ding Hongba helplessly and begged: "Uncle, you see I only have six copper coins on my body. Why don't you take a few coins first and get there tomorrow?"
I'll make it up for you, okay?"
At this time, before Ding Hongba could speak, the people watching below burst into laughter: "Hahaha!...Hahaha!...What kind of advanced martial arts does a stinky beggar want to learn?
The copper plate pretended to come here to buy secret books, which made me laugh to death..."
This smile made the old man feel even more ashamed, but for the sake of his grandson, he did not leave. He still stood in front of Ding Hongba with a begging look on his face. The grandson beside him had a look of expectation, but he was also a little embarrassed.
The old and the young stood in front of Ding Hongba, letting the people below laugh at him. Ding Hongba couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily to these people: "Why are you laughing?! Look at this old man
They all believe it, but you don’t believe it. I’m really pissed off.” After saying that, Ding Hongba looked at the old man again, but his expression softened a lot, and he pushed back his hand holding six copper coins, and then picked it up.
A book of Tai Chi was handed to him and he said: "Old man, I gave this secret book to you. You can practice it with your grandson. It will definitely work."
The old man didn't expect that Ding Hongba didn't want his money, but instead comforted him. This made the old man very grateful, and he was about to kneel down to Ding Hongba with his trembling body, but Ding Hongba stopped him.
"Old man, you don't have to be like this. If you really want to thank me, just thank my silly nephew Ding Sheng. This was all his idea." Ding Hongba smiled and said, "He is so pretentious.
The stuff he has is so big, these boxing manuals can be practiced by people without Five Elements qualifications, so he asked me to sell them here at a low price, hoping that everyone can practice martial arts..."
Hearing this, the old man burst into tears of gratitude. Then he trembled and pulled his grandson to kneel down to one side. He murmured in his mouth: "Grandson, we have to thank Grandmaster Ding. This is a living thing."
Bodhisattva..."
The old man and the young man knelt down, tears streaming down their faces. The two of them undoubtedly believed Ding Hongba's words, because they had never seen a liar who didn't want money. Besides, they were all beggars, so what else could they do to them?
What? Therefore, the old man and the child are very grateful. In this world, there are too few masters who can be as careless about their origins as Ding Sheng, but who want to make martial arts universal.
Such people are the living Bodhisattvas in this world.
Everyone saw this scene and had their own thoughts in their hearts. Some people also began to believe Ding Hongba's words. After all, beggars have nothing to cheat, right? Besides, they don't want those few copper coins. Of course, some people still don't believe it and think
This is Ding Hongba's trick of playing hard to get, and it doesn't matter if you practice this secret book and you will be blackmailed or manipulated.
Anyway, this person's mind is in a mess and he has all kinds of thoughts.
However, no one noticed that when the old man and the young man knelt down to worship, wisps of invisible breath came out faintly and slowly flew away until they disappeared at the end of the sky.
Ding Hongba helped the two of them up, and after a few words of comfort, the two left with gratitude.
No matter what the people below thought, at least Ding Hongba opened the market today and made his first transaction. Although he did not make any money from this transaction, he was happy in his heart. Only then did he realize that his
Why did his nephew ask him to do this? Ding Sheng's chivalrous heart made Ding Hongba feel sympathy for him.
Ding Hongba felt very comforted to have such a good son in the Ding family. Therefore, he decided to do what Ding Sheng said no matter what, and sell all the secret books here at low prices, and it was best to sell them to
Those poor people, those poor people who have no way to practice martial arts.
Of course, after the old and young beggars left, some of the people below believed it, and some did not. In short, some poor people believed it. They were originally reluctant to part with ten coins for fear of being deceived, but now
It seemed that Ding Hongba was not a liar, so these poor people gathered around him first.
Ding Hongba didn't care much about buying and selling. He would still give boxing records to some people who had no money. Isn't it just a matter of ten coppers? He, Ding Hongba, could still afford it.
As a result, several copies of the boxing manual were sold, and those rich people naturally would not give in easily, and Ding Hongba was too lazy to say anything to them, acting like he wanted to buy it or not.
