Gao Hong's novel The Umbrella of Tangjia Temple

Once upon a time there was a businessman who worked hard for many years and finally saved a lot of wealth. He is going to retire to his hometown, end the hard work of wandering for half a life, go home to reunite with his wife, and buy a house to spend his old age. At that time, the situation was turbulent and the road was long, and there were often robbers on the road. Businessmen dare not show off their wealth, so they have to wear a gray cloth gown and a pair of cloth-soled shoes, pretending to be passers-by sleeping in the wind. The businessman specially bought an oil-paper umbrella with an elbow, so he looked like a poor man, with a wallet on his shoulder and this umbrella in his hand, and went on the road easily.

At noon that day, businessmen came to Tangjia Temple in the suburb of Chengdu. Seeing that it was an ordinary town, the businessman went to a noodle restaurant, asked for a bowl of noodles, had a delicious meal and hurried on. Chengdu Dandan Noodles is famous far and near. A bowl of colorful noodles, complete ingredients, businessmen eat very fragrant. I didn't expect my stomach to be full, but a burst of tiredness surged up. The business of the small shop is average, with only three or five diners, but it is not noisy. So the businessman took a nap at the table. A cool breeze woke the businessman. When he looked up, there was nobody in the shop, but it was raining outside. The businessman rubbed his cheek and suddenly whispered that his oil-paper umbrella was missing! Cold sweat suddenly appeared. I think it must have rained while he was taking a nap, and those diners were in a hurry to go out. One of them saw him fall asleep and stole his umbrella.

_ The businessman counted the change with him, pondered for a while, and decided what to do and how to do it. He called the baker and said that he took a fancy to this quiet town and decided to stay here and open a small shop to make a living. Please help me find a house. The shopkeeper is also a kind person. What kind of shop do you run? What size house do you want? I'll help you find it. The businessman said, "I have no skill, I can only repair umbrellas and hats." Handicraft artists can't afford to rent a big house, but it's better to stay on the main road. "The shopkeeper said with a smile," of course, the hat repair should be on the side of the road. "So I quickly helped him find a house. The businessman opened an umbrella repair shop in Tangjiasi with the only money.

Businessmen are polite and ingenious, opening at dawn and closing at dark, much like a person who follows the rules. Before long, his small repair shop was well received by local people, and people were willing to give him an umbrella to repair it, even if it was more than two or three miles. The merchant's umbrella shop stands, but no one knows that this small craftsman is a wealthy businessman, let alone that there is a nervous and anxious heart hidden under his humble smile every day. He waited for a familiar oiled paper umbrella all the time, but he was disappointed. I have hundreds of umbrellas in my hand, but there is no one like him.

As time went on, the businessman waited patiently, but his umbrella still didn't appear. One day, he bought an old umbrella, and the owner casually asked, "Can you repair it?" Forget it if it's too much trouble. Otherwise, a handful of beer is not worth much, but I spent a lot of money! "Hearing this, the merchant's heart moved and he thought that his umbrella was only thirty percent new when he lost it. Now I'm afraid of being worn out, and now my owner is afraid of not repairing it. The businessman began to think again.

The next day, passers-by saw this umbrella repair shop and found a fresh advertisement: oil-paper umbrellas are replaced with new ones. People have come forward to ask if this is true. After getting a positive answer from the businessman, the news spread quickly. It is said that this is a profit-making activity for businessmen to expand their business and attract more guests. He also said that it would be the turn to trade in the old umbrella for the new one next time. He also said that businessmen are interested in collecting umbrellas-in short, the advertising effect is excellent.

(b) Not long after, on a sunny afternoon, a middle-aged farmer came to the umbrella repair shop. The businessman saw at a glance that he had an oiled paper umbrella under his arm, which was exactly the umbrella he had been thinking about day and night.

The businessman quietly accepted the umbrella, and at a sharp glance, he saw that umbrella C was intact and there was no trace of passivity. He knew that the story of One Piece returning to Zhao happened to him. He turned and chose the best umbrella in the shop and gave it to the guests. Thanks to the guests, he slowly closed the shop door. The merchant immediately sealed the yellow wax in the umbrella. C. pried the yellow wax open again, and the merchant saw all the jewels and jade articles he had stuffed inside. He sat down on the ground and breathed a long sigh of relief, unable to speak for a long time.

On this day, the residents of Tangjia Temple felt a little strange: they had never seen it closed so early since they asked for an umbrella to be repaired and spread out. The next day, it was dawn, but the door was still open. I didn't know the house was empty until I asked. The foreign businessman who had opened a shop here for a long time suddenly left. Businessmen come and go gently, and no one thinks much, which is a bit strange.

Later, this incident became a story, and those local people who changed umbrellas suddenly realized. So "the umbrella of Tangjia Temple-change it" became a local allegorical saying. People tell this story and admire the calmness, wisdom and atmosphere of businessmen.
