“Five-color Wealth Chain”
Antique dealer Lao Chen received a peculiar bracelet – five beads made of different materials were carved with five gods of wealth: topaz Guan Gong, red agate Zhao Gongming, jadeite Bigan, obsidian Fan Li, and white crystal Duanmu Ci.
“This is the Five-way God of Wealth Chain passed down by Shanxi merchants in the late Qing Dynasty,” the seller said mysteriously, “but you must gather all five to see the effect.”
Lao Chen’s business prospered after wearing it, but he always heard the sound of abacus at midnight. Once he deliberately withheld the payment for the goods, and the red agate beads suddenly cracked, and the warehouse caught fire inexplicably that night.
When he was looking for it in Shanxi, he found a broken “Business Training” in Qiao’s compound, which recorded the origin of this bracelet: the five shopkeepers each held a bead, and only when they traded in good faith could the five beads be briefly gathered.
Today, the five-color bracelets are placed in the most conspicuous position in Lao Chen’s store. Whenever the setting sun shines, the five statues of the God of Wealth cast shadows on the ground, which exactly form the word “faith”.
