Chapter 20
"Miss Yin, please sit down!"
I felt that Mr. Su was like a different person, with a look of enthusiasm on his face. Yinli didn't react at the first time. Why is Mr. Su's attitude so different?
What she didn't know was that Su Chen's change would be so big, because she said she had 100,000 yuan in private money.
Money is what Su Chen lacks the most now.
For Yunyin Decoction alone, the medicinal materials used every time it is decocted, but it seems that he needs to take them at least thirty times, which will cost tens of thousands of yuan, not to mention some expenses for subsequent practice, which is all money.
There is a saying that you can learn literature in poverty and learn martial arts in wealth, but in Su Chen's opinion, it doesn't cost much money. The most expensive thing is to practice. This thing is not worth a lot of money at home, so it's better to touch less.
Seeing the girl's expression, Su Chen also knew that his attitude had become a little too fast, which reminded him of an allusion.
According to legend, the great writer Su Dongpo went to a temple one day to visit. The abbot saw that Su Dongpo was wearing a look and did not move when he sat in his position. He just lazily raised his hand and asked the little novice monk to show him the seat, and said, "Sit, tea."
Su Dongpo was a little unhappy when he saw that he was treated so slowly, so he wanted to tease the monk who judged people by his appearance. He immediately asked the little shark to come over with the Shanyuan Book and wrote a donation of 100 taels on the Shanyuan Book in front of the abbot.
When the abbot saw this scene, his expression became enthusiastic. He stood up from his position and said to Su Dongpo: "Please sit down", and at the same time, he ordered to the little novice monk: "Give tea."
Su Dongpo smiled slightly, and then wrote down his name on the Shanyuan Book. When the abbot saw that he was the famous writer Su Dongpo, he quickly shouted excitedly: "Please sit down", and at the same time he quickly ordered the little novice monk: "Good tea."
Later, the abbot learned that Su Dongpo's poems, calligraphy and painting were the best in the world, and it was hard to find a fortune. He asked Su Dongpo for calligraphy, but Su Dongpo did not refuse. He agreed readily and wrote two couplets directly on the paper.
The first couplet: Please sit, please sit, please sit.
The second couplet: tea, tea, good tea.
Horizontal draft: Customers are divided into three levels.
Su Chen felt that he was no different from the abbot now, and there was no way. Nowadays, a penny of money stumped heroes. Besides, it was better to make money by his own ability, and it was not bad not to steal or rob him.
"I wonder who Miss Yin wants me to show my photos?"
"Did you agree?" Yin Li's face showed a look of surprise.
"Well, we learn skills to guide others and seek benefits and avoid harm. However, it is easy to be punished by God if we reveal the secrets of heaven, so we are unwilling to take action easily." Su Chen's serious answer aggravated his tone with the word "easy".
"I understand, I understand it. I have read a lot of books related to fortune telling and photos. I have also asked many people online that those who do your business are likely to suffer from five disadvantages and three shortcomings."
When Su Chen almost laughed out loud when he heard Yin Li mention the five disadvantages and three disadvantages.
Five disadvantages and three disadvantages are a very famous term, especially in the two industries of local masters and prime ministers, which are mentioned almost at any time.
The so-called five disadvantages and three disadvantages are. The five disadvantages refer to widows, widows, orphans, alone, and disabled; widows refer to having no wife or losing their wife, while widows refer to losing their husbands, that is, widows, orphans refer to having both parents or fathers, while alone refers to having no support for the old man and having no one to support them. As for being disabled, some physical defects occur.
The most common one is the remnant, especially the Master of the Concubine. Most of the people who read fortune tellers in many places are blind people, but these blind people are not blind because they have too many fortune tellers, but are blind before fortune telling.
There are many sects in the fortune telling industry, and the blind people belong to the blind sect. The ancestor of this sect is Guiguzi. When Guiguzi saw that the blind people were in a difficult life and could not make a living, he passed on a set of numerology inference methods to the blind.
People in this sect often rely on inferences to fortune tellers. If someone goes to a blind man to tell fortunes, they will find that when they tell fortunes, they usually pinch their fingers and then recite something in their mouths. In fact, this is because blind people start to infer based on the heavenly stems and earthly branches of the eight characters in their minds, put in the mantras they recite, and listen carefully, they will find that they are chanting words related to the year, month and day of the heavenly stems and earthly branches.
However, the biggest feature of this sect is that it is passed down from blindness but not from later generations. This sect will only accept disciples who are also blind, but will not pass them to future generations, because the existence of their sect is to give the blind a living ability to make a living.
In addition to this sect, the other five disadvantages are just a joke in Su Chen's opinion, no, this is what the old men said. If there are really five disadvantages, then King Wen of Zhou decided to have a posthumous gossip, and wouldn't he live a good life.
According to what those old men said, those who are worried about the five disadvantages are all half-bad guys, and those who are less than half-baked in a bucket of water are wandering around. Those who are really capable will naturally have ways to resolve the cause and effect that are contaminated.
However, the old men did not deny the three shortcomings: money, life, and power, especially the first two, which they thought were the most important things to pay attention to.
The reason for lack of money is very simple. Practice is very expensive, and that is a bottomless pit.
As for fate, the same is true. Although the world where practitioners live is also in the secular world, it is still different from ordinary people. It is normal to fight each other for life and death, and they often make things happen if they pursue progress. When going to places like mysterious forbidden areas, there are indeed not many people who have a good ending.
As for the thing "trust", in the words of the old men, it depends on what you think, but don't expect it to be the supreme position. Since Qin Shihuang, this thing has been a purple qi initiation, and no one who practices can touch it.
For Su Chen, he didn't want to show his appearance, he just didn't want to bother and get involved in cause and effect, but if he gave money, it would be different. Giving money is a transaction, as long as it is not aiding the evildoer.
If Wang Ziyang appeared here at this moment, he would find that Su Chen's face was exactly the same as his master at that time.
"So, what do you mean is that I want you to see your brother's photos?"
After listening to Yinli's request, Su Chen was a little puzzled. If this girl really believed this and had a crush on the boy in her heart, she wanted to see if the boy was a good match with her, she felt that it was normal, but what the hell was it to show her brother's photos? Is it German orthopedics?
"Mr. Su, I won't hide it from you anymore. Our family has a lot of people and the population is very prosperous. It's just passed down by my grandfather. There are more than fifty cousins of my generation."
Hearing Yin Li's words, Su Chen's mouth twitched. This person is indeed a prosperous person, because their generation is in family planning. Normal families have only two children at most, and there are more than fifty people in the same generation, which means that the previous generation of brothers must have fifteen bases, and the daughter is not counted.
"My grandma gave birth to sixteen, all of them were men." Yin Li explained as if he knew what Su Chen was thinking.
"Your family is really blessed with great fortune." Su Chen praised halfway.
"Mr. Su, do you know why there are such a prosperous male child in my family?"
"I hope to hear the details."
Yin Li took a deep breath, as if he was organizing his words. After a while, he said: "My grandfather and my grandmother met by matchmakers, but at that time my grandmother's house was a province different from my grandfather's house. My grandfather had never read any books. At that time, he was just a bamboo worker and had never even been to the county..."
