“The Fate of Copper Coins and Bodhi”

Lao Zhou’s antique shop received a strange bracelet – the bodhi seeds were strung with five emperors’ coins, and the red string had turned black. The young man who delivered the goods said that it was found on the beam of the old house that was demolished.

That night, Lao Zhou dreamed that the accountant of the Qing Dynasty was using an abacus, and he would tie a copper coin to the string after each calculation. When he woke up, he found that there was an extra Guangxu Tongbao on the copper coins on the bracelet.

Following the clues of the dream, Lao Zhou found a record in the local chronicles: During the Guangxu period, the owner of the silk and satin shop made this string and pressed it on the beam to ensure the safety of the business road.

On a rainy night, a Taiwanese businessman came in the rain and his eyes were red when he saw the bracelet – this was the last heirloom that his ancestors pawned before they separated.

Now the string of Bodhi copper coins is hung in the middle of the shop. Whenever the wind blows, the copper coins sound like abacus, as if calculating the fate of the gathering and separation on the business road for hundreds of years.
