Hearing Zhou Hongyuan’s excited words, the crowd stared at the tea tray, wondering if it was the tea tray that made them feel so naturally empty and peaceful. At first, they did think that it was the beauty of the yard and the tea that made them relax, but in retrospect, it didn’t seem so simple. If it is really the tea tray, then this is really a wonderful treasure.
“Boss Zhou, what do you mean by ‘Zen and Tea are of one taste’?” Wang Siya asked.
“Tea and Zen originally belonged to two different cultures, but they have something in common. Tea is the purest flavor in the water, which is consistent with the indifferent nature of Zen that promotes the mind far away from obsession. One sip and one drink, the dew moistens the heart, one reward, and one harmony, and the heart and soul became closely linked. That is the ‘Zen and tea are of one taste’. ” Zhou Hongyuan talks freely as he looks at the tea plate with a devout look.
Everyone nodded in understanding, although they didn’t understand it very well, but at least, they knew that it would not be easy to get rid of the trouble and have a clear peace of mind. Even Buddhist monks and masters can only achieve this through long-term cultivation. But they all just stepped into that state of mind just now, no wonder Zhou Hongyuan was so excited.
“But it’s not just the relationship of the Tea Tray, it’s also influenced by the beauty of the yard and the tea?” Wang Siya asked.
“The beautiful scenery has an impact, and tea as a part of ‘Tea Zen’ certainly also has an impact but the biggest reason is definitely this Tea Tray. Just look at this picture of a smiling Buddha.” Zhou Hongyuan believed in Buddha and has worshipped Buddha sincerely. He even plans to become a monk, so he knows about this very well.
Everyone stared at the smiling picture on the tea tray and at first they felt nothing but they gradually found that this smiling picture was actually lifelike, as if there was a Buddha smiling at them, they felt more and more empty and peaceful. They Involuntarily picked up the cup of tea and tasted it carefully and they felt as if the tea had become more fragrant and delicious.
“How does it feel?” Zhou Hongyuan asked.
“A few days ago a friend got married and bought a car and borrowed money from me. I was worried about whether to lend it to him or not. It seemed unreasonable not to lend it to him, but I was worried that he would not pay it back. I was entangled with it for several days and couldn’t even sleep, but now that I think about it, I suddenly thought of something, I think that a little amount of money is nothing to me, he has been my friend for so many years and its ok for him to borrow money from me, even if he doesn’t return it, I won’t regret it as I would know that it was just a false friendship.” Dong Xun showed a relaxed look.
“I have recently made a girlfriend. I like her very much, but my parents have different opinions …” Qin Xulan also smiled as he figured something out. Others have said a few words and some haven’t, but no doubt they are also quite calm and open-minded at this moment.
This kind of Zen does not give people the answer. Some things are difficult to say whether they are right or wrong, but it obviously makes people calm, more rational and think more freely. For example, with regard to borrowing money, it is unclear whether it is right or wrong. Sometimes, borrowing is right, and sometimes borrowing is wrong. There are many factors to consider. However, if you get irritable because of this then it would be easy to make a wrong judgment and it also greatly affects your mood.
“A’Jing, is this really a Buddhism Sacred Relic?” Wang Zhuo asked curiously as he touched the surface of the tea tray.
“I’m not sure, my friend gave it to me and it’s unclear where he got it from.” Su Jing said, thinking that this tea plate has such deep effects and it may be a real Buddhist Relic. The picture above is proof to that. However, at least, it is not an earth item, and it should not be a sacred object, or even if a corner is broken, it will not get thrown into the garbage dump. So, what world is this from, a broken product thrown away as garbage contains such a profound and unpredictable Zen?
“This is not any ordinary Buddhism Sacred Relic. I have seen some Buddhism Sacred Relics but there has never been one that could touch the Zen heart so easily.” Zhou Hongyuan was still excited and continue to speak, “Mr. Su, can you transfer this relic to me? “
“Sorry, I only have this one, and I won’t be transferring it.” Su Jing refused politely. There is no doubt that this is a treasure and a unique one at that. Su Jing and his family haven’t had time to enjoy this, how can he be willing to transfer it to others?
“One million.” Zhou Hongyuan still did not give up.
“It’s not about money.” Su Jing shook his head.
“Three million.”
“Sorry.”
“Five million.”
Listening to Zhou Hongyuan’s continuously increasing price, he actually increased it to 5 Million. Zhu Jianhua, Peng Ming, Tang Xiaoyu, Lv Qingya, Yang Wei, and others all took a deep breath. Even if this tea tray is magical, it is just a tea tray and one corner of it has been broken and this guy even bid Five Million Yuan for it. For them, Five Million Yuan is an astronomical figure. Even Wang Zhuo, Wang Siya, Qin Xulan and Liu Qing were surprised. 5 Million is not a big deal for them. However, they didn’t do such a thing as spending 5 Million to buy a tea tray.
But when they thought about it, they thought nothing of it. Just think, who in this world has never had trouble? Even the richest people in the world will often have trouble, especially those who are Impatient Billionaires, often money can not solve the problem, and sometimes, it is hard to even buy a smile with money. So, a lot of rich people spend a lot of money to enjoy all sorts of things, in order to raise their spirit and mind.
Now, there is such a tea tray, which can recuperate the body and mind and let people easily enter the state of emptying peace. Just imagine, what does this mean for the rich? Is it more important for them to have five million or to be more peaceful? If you let the wealthy people all over the world know the magic of this tea tray, it is estimated that it will be very expensive.
“Old Zhao, give up. As you said, this is a Buddhism Sacred Relic. Can it be measured by money?” Wang Zhuo laughed. If it can be measured by money, he will rush to buy it and not wait for Zhou Hongyuan.
“It was me who made this mistake. I decided to throw away valuable things in order to pursue the indifferent nature and to stay away from the persistent state of mind, and I still persistently want to get this tea tray, it is really ridiculous to think about it, It looks like I am still not strong enough.” That being said, he still couldn’t help but peek at the tea tray, revealing his greedy look. Everyone understands the truth, but sometimes it is not so easy to do.
Whether it is sold or not, this tea tray is worth more than 5 Million, which is beyond doubt. Liu Qing, Qin Xulan, Zhu Jianhua, Peng Ming, Lv Qingya, Yang Wei, and others all looked at Su Jing with some unbalanced hearts. God is unfair, why are all treasures piled upon him, what? Can’t one or two such treasures come across them?
