Once upon a time, there was a scholar surnamed Wang who gradually lost his reputation because he failed several rural exams and learned to start a satin business.
One day, with the wind and rain, there were no pedestrians on the road, so Wang Xiucai found an inn to stay in. Due to fatigue, Wang Xiucai blew out the lights and was about to go to bede heard a knock on the door outside. Wang Xiucai asked, "Who is knocking on the door?" Only a woman's voice outside the door replied softly, "It's me." Wang Xiucai went out to make a living and was very careful with everything. At this time, she heard a woman's voice and couldn't help but say suspiciously, "I am a person who goes out to make a living. You and I don't know each other. Why did you knock on the door?" The woman outside said, "I am a lonely ghost. Because I died unexpectedly, I want to ask you for help now. I have no malice. Please open the door. I will explain the reason in detail." When Wang Xiucai heard this, her whole body got pimples, but after thinking about it, she had never done anything wrong in her life, she stood upright and walked steadily, afraid of her coming? Besides, she couldn't avoid disaster. "So Wang Xiucai had the courage to open the door. Only a gust of wind and a thin figure drifted in. The woman did not hang up, and said with a sad face," Thank you, my benefactor, I was raped and killed three years ago, and now I just ask my benefactor to give me clothes to cover my body and take my corpse home. Wang Xiucai hurriedly took a set of clothes for the woman to wear. The woman made a deep bow to Wang Xiucai and said, "Your kindness, the little girl will never forget it. Please go to the graves outside the store tomorrow to find my body and send me home. My father will thank me. After the woman finished speaking, she reported her home address and father's name to Xiucai. Wang Xiucai deeply sympathized with the woman's experience. He said to the woman, "I will definitely help you, but please rest assured."
The next day, Wang Xiucai found the woman's body in a graveyard not far from the store, installed it with a porcelain altar, and then found her father at the address the woman said. It turned out that the woman's father's surname was Chen, and he had a rich family. He opened several shops and was a famous person in the local area. When the woman's father heard what Wang Xiucai said and saw her daughter's body, he couldn't help but gurgle and cry. The woman's father choked up and said: "Three years ago, my daughter went to visit relatives, but unexpectedly there was no news. I reported it to the government and sent people to look around, but there was no news. I expected my daughter to be in danger. The night before yesterday, my daughter told me in her dream that a businessman wanted to take her home and asked me to thank her again. The woman's father swallowed his tears and took out a large sum of money from the house to thank Wang Xiucai. Wang Xiucai smiled and refused to say, "I don't know your daughter. I sent her body home out of sympathy and conscience, and I have no other intentions. Seeing Wang Xiucai's repeated refusal, the woman's father stopped encouraging him. He only asked Wang Xiucai to stay for a few days to fulfill friendship of the landlord, and Wang Xiucai agreed.
In the Chen family for several days, the woman's father warmly welcomed Wang Xiucai as the guest of honor. Seeing Wang Xiucai's talent and loyalty and integrity, the woman's father wanted to help him. One day, the woman's father asked Wang Xiucai what kind of business he was doing now. Wang Xiucai said: "I only failed several village trials, so I am learning to do satin business now." The woman's father pondered for a while and said: "I have an unkind request, I don't know if the benefactor will answer it?Wang Xiucai said: "As long as I can do it, I will never refuse. The woman's father said, "That's not true. I have several shops, but there is a shortage of manpower. I want to ask the benefactor to help me. In the future, all my satin business will be supplied by the benefactor. I don't know what to do?Wang Xiucai looked at the sincerity of the woman's father, and knew that the woman's father was willing to help him, so he readily agreed.
From then on, Wang Xiucai and the woman's father had close business contacts. Soon, Wang Xiucai's business was booming and he made a fortune. Therefore, people said that Wang Xiucai was well-intentioned and rewarded.
