In stories about "true and false young misses," others usually transmigrate into noble daughters who were lost outside. With one transmigration, they step on cannon fodder, become the cente...
In order to establish the image of "Half-Immortal", Su Qingluan not only put a lot of effort into "professional books", but also borrowed a lot of related books from Mu Xingzhi, and even wrote a short biography for this imaginary "Half-Immortal".
From the reasons why one embarks on the path of seeking immortality, to which master one becomes his disciple, and even which "enlightened people" are there in the sect, there are many different things, and the story strives to be multifaceted, three-dimensional, and complete, with the main point being that one can not only deceive others, but even make oneself almost believe it.
It took Su Qingluan more than a month to complete this "biography", combining the books borrowed from Mu Xingzhi and some immortal cultivation novels and TV dramas she read in her previous life.
Everything is ready, now the only thing missing is the candidate. However, Su Qingluan is not worried about this candidate at all, because he will come to her automatically.
This has to start with the fact that the Su family's business is becoming more and more prosperous, and the family conditions are visibly getting better and better.
Nowadays, there are many people who cheat and defraud others. Some of them target poor people who have nowhere else to go, while others target families with a little wealth like the Su family.
Of course, there are also those who just want to go all in for the thrill. Once these people take action, they will either succeed or be wiped out. The people they usually target are basically people at the level of kings, princes, generals and ministers, who are completely beyond Su Qingluan's consideration.
In fact, there were always many scammers coming to the Su family. However, Su Qingluan was always looking for the right person - just kidding, even if you want to cheat, not everyone can do it.
A very simple situation is that no matter what profession or identity, people tend to judge people by their appearance based on their own imagined "established impressions".
For example, in her previous life, Su Qingluan often saw an old lady with kind eyes and white hair and a youthful face on some local TV channels. She was said to be an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner with decades of medical experience. She was active in the "Health Lecture" column of various TV stations all day long, recommending various "miracle medicines".
Later, it was revealed that this "veteran Chinese medicine practitioner" was actually a fraud, having been operating for years without a medical license or even basic medical knowledge. The "Chinese medicine theories" she spoke about on the show were simply memorized lines from a script, and the recovered "patients" were all fakes.
While the patients on the show were all fakes, countless victims were deceived by this "old Chinese doctor." He was even jailed, and some people cried and cried, refusing to believe that such a kind-looking man could be a con man.
Su Qingluan sighed at the time and did not blame so many people for being deceived, because this person really fit the image of "an imagined old Chinese doctor with profound skills."
This shows how much the conformity to "established imagination" can add to the character's "image" - this is also the reason why the entertainment industry says "if the image is right, the character can be established without any acting."
So these days, Su Qingluan would occasionally do some "stupid and rich" actions intentionally or unintentionally to attract scammers to take the bait.
Of course, the method she used could not be the kind that was not suitable for her status, such as "praying for a child", but at her age, there was a more logical reason.
"Ask for a marriage fortune?" Liu Yunniang looked at Su Qingluan with surprise. "Didn't you say before that you wanted to focus on making money? Why do you want to ask for a marriage fortune?"
Su Qingluan shrugged: "Recently, my parents have been keen on finding a husband for me, but those people...tsk tsk tsk..." It can't be said that they are ordinary, it can only be said that they are unbearable to look at.
In fact, it’s no wonder that Su Qingluan had such an idea.
Generally speaking, as long as the growth environment is roughly the same, the mental age of men of similar age will be slightly lower than that of women of the same age.
Su Qingluan has not only lived two lives as a human, but has also been struggling in the business world since she traveled through time in this life.
In these two lives, the life and death situation in the previous life and the business world in this life, both of them are tests and trials of human nature, which makes Su Qingluan's mental age even older than her physical age when she died in the previous life.
This leads to an obvious problem: she looks at her peers with similar upbringings as if they were children - in fact, aren't those teenagers, who are only seventeen or eighteen years old at most, still children?
As for those who seemed a bit like her peers, even if we ignored the generation gap, they were at least over 30 years old. With such an age difference, they could be a father. Not to mention that Yang and Su Guangfu would never agree to it, she herself had no intention of becoming someone else's second wife or stepmother.
However, if Su Qingluan gets married, which is equivalent to becoming a mother, Su Qingluan is still reluctant to do so. After all, in her imagination, her other half does not require a telepathic connection with her, but only needs to be worry-free, worry-free, and worry-free, so that she can focus on doing business and making money!
However, looking at the people that Su Guangfu and Yang had chosen for him... forget it, it's like trying to lift tofu with a hemp rope, it's impossible to lift it!
Thinking of this, Su Qingluan, who originally came to ask for a fortune just to "fish", actually wanted to ask for a fortune.
Of course, if you want to attract "scammers", you can't go to any famous ancient temple in the mountains, but you have to try your luck at the cloth banners on the roadside that say "fortune telling", "fortune telling", and "accurate predictions".
Su Qingluan appeared timid and shy, pretending to be completely silent. In her heart, she was thinking, "I hope the gods will bless me so I can get to the capital as soon as possible. I want to vigorously promote menstrual belts!"
Su Qingluan thought about it and realized that menstrual belts were definitely a blue ocean market. However, the cost was too high, especially for cotton, which was not affordable for most people. Moreover, soft fine cloth was not something that everyone could afford.
But it’s different in the capital. Any piece of money that falls from the sky can hit a rich lady or the wife of an official, so they can promote their own “improved menstrual belt” more.
No matter what it is, once it expands in scale, all kinds of "imitations" will emerge like mushrooms after rain.
Su Qingluan is not afraid of counterfeiting. Rather, she hopes to "counterfeit" more so that she can come up with cheaper "substitutes" suitable for the general public.
"Click", a crisp sound of bamboo sticks falling was heard, and a fortune stick fell on the table in front of her. Su Qingluan took a look and saw "the best fortune" written on it.
The fortune teller opposite, known for his unwavering predictions, looked like an immortal. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "My dear believer, this is a rare and excellent lot! This lot will surely help you find your perfect partner and live together forever, but..."
Su Qingluan narrowed her eyes: Sure enough, it started!
