Chapter 020: Small calculations
Later, Jiang Yiqing heard that Sha Tao was very angry with Zhuang Kangyu. He couldn't accept the thought that after his death, the inheritance would be given to that woman and that bastard.
So Sha Tao wanted to find a lawyer to make a will that day. He would never give his inheritance to that woman even if he died.
But unexpectedly, Mrs. Sha didn't know from where that Sha Tao was planning to make a will. This woman naturally knew what kind of place she was in Sha Tao's heart, and she wouldn't be stupid enough to think that he would give his inheritance to her.
Mrs. Sha made a decision immediately. She couldn't just sit there and wait for death. Now it seemed that Sha Tao would not live long, and she had to make plans for the future of herself and her children!
Therefore, before Sha Tao had time to write a will that night, he learned that Mrs. Sha had taken the family's property and children and ran away with her lover.
Although Sha Tao was usually very wary of Mrs. Sha, they were husband and wife after all, living under the same roof. If Mrs. Sha wanted to, she could still find out where his property was.
Moreover, this woman was quite smart and knew that she couldn't be greedy and take all the property away. Of course, it was not because she felt sorry for Sha Tao and left some for him, but because these real estates could not be sold for cash in a short time.
However, except for the real estate, she exchanged the rest for cash and took them away. This included most of Sha Tao's property.
As you can imagine, Sha Tao was almost mad when he heard the news. He spat out blood on the spot and was almost mad with anger. But being angry was useless. He needed the help of a nurse to move even a little. He could only be furious when he heard the news.
Sha Tao probably didn't expect that he would spend the last few days of his life in such torture.
Does he regret what he did? Why should he regret it? Sha Tao still thinks he did nothing wrong. If he did, it was because he hesitated and didn't kill Zhuang Kangyu immediately, which led to his end.
When Zhuang Kangyu heard these things, his emotions had calmed down. He just sighed, "Master Jiang is really amazing. He said that Sha Tao would not die within three days, and he really won't die. He is still alive even after being so angry." Mrs. Zhuang
frowned and didn't want to mention this man: "Who cares? What happens to him now has nothing to do with us."
Zhuang Kangyu smiled and nodded, "Yes, it has nothing to do with us."

Jiang Yiqing took out a stick of incense, placed it by the window and lit it, with a solemn expression, as if he was performing a mysterious ritual.
Watching the incense being lit, Jiang Yiqing touched his chin and muttered to himself: "Well, the old man should come tonight."
The old man had taught Jiang Yiqing a formula before. If he recited it a few times before going to bed, he would enter Jiang Yiqing's dream, but Jiang Yiqing felt it was too troublesome, so he finally made some incense. When this incense was lit, the old man would come again.
The incense burned slowly, and Jiang Yiqing was not in a hurry to sleep, but went out to take a look at the pig spirit.
The pig spirit had been sleeping since it came back from Zhuang's house that day. It really slept like a dead pig.
Jiang Yiqing, based on the little friendship in the past few days, took a look at it and found that there was nothing wrong with the pig spirit. It should be because it ate ashes.
No one knew what was happening with the pig spirit, but the ashes that were originally filled with negative energy were not only harmless to eat, but also beneficial.
Jiang Yiqing looked at the "sleeping" pig spirit with a dim gaze. If the pig spirit was awake, it would notice that Jiang Yiqing's look made it look like he wanted to take it apart for research!
Fortunately, Jiang Yiqing was not that cruel. He quickly looked away, and after making sure that the pig spirit was fine, he returned to the room.
After singing another song for Wen Xiuyan, Jiang Yiqing finally closed his eyes this time, and soon fell into darkness.
Jiang Yiqing opened his eyes and knew clearly that this was his dream.
Glancing at the empty room, he was not in a hurry. He sat up, propped up his chin and waited silently. After a moment, an old man in white floated in.
Looking at his precious apprentice, the old man smiled with his hands behind his back: "Yiqing, your teacher already knows about your recent achievements. Not bad, not bad. I said that young people are smart, right? It's just that fortune-telling live broadcast of yours. Even if you tell me, I don't know how to do it."
The old man started to flatter him. Even though he knew that the other party was doing it to make him more willing to work like a slave, Jiang Yiqing still couldn't help but curl his lips.
Pretending to be serious, he said, "Don't ask those nonsense questions. I need your help."
The old man also became serious after hearing this: "You tell me, the master will definitely help you."
Jiang Yiqing said simply, "It's nothing. I have made some money now. I plan to renovate the ancestral temple first."
The old man nodded and started to flatter her again: "Good, good, the master knew you..."
Jiang Yiqing raised his hand speechlessly: "Don't say anymore, I haven't finished yet."
The old man touched his beard awkwardly and waited for Jiang Yiqing to continue.
"But now we have encountered a problem in the first step." Jiang Yiqing helplessly raised his hands: "We can't let ordinary construction teams come to build the temple of the ancestors, right?"
It's not that Jiang Yiqing thinks ordinary construction teams are not good. Most of those construction teams build cement buildings, but the temple of the ancestors must be a Chinese-style building. Jiang Yiqing asked many construction teams and none of them could do it.
Those who specialize in this kind of Chinese-style building think that their place is too remote, and the amount of work is small. For a while, no construction team was willing to take it.
So, Jiang Yiqing could only ask the old man for help.
When the old man heard this, he unconsciously exerted force on his hand that was touching his beard. Fortunately, he was not a human now, otherwise his beard would have been pulled out.
The old man shook his head in embarrassment: "Yiqing, you tell this to your master, but there is nothing I can do. I didn't know any construction team when I was alive."
But who knew that Jiang Yiqing smiled slightly, like a little fox: "Who said you want a construction team from the world? You are in the underworld now, so you have to look for it in the underworld. There are so many people in the underworld. It is said that some people have been dead for thousands of years and don't want to reincarnate. Among these people, there should be some who can build a house, right? You look for them and let them do it. Master, you still have the relationship with your ancestors down there, so it should be easy to find, right?"
The old man: "..."
He couldn't help but glance at his apprentice's head. What on earth is this brain like that? He can come up with such a method.
But don't mention it, it's worth a try. I just don't know if those old guys who have been dead for thousands of years have lost their skills.
The old man nodded as he thought, "Okay, I'll go ask for you later."
Jiang Yiqing saw that the old man agreed, which meant that he was almost successful. He smiled even more, "Okay, then you can ask as soon as possible and talk to the underworld. I'm promoting the underworld experience, so I can be considered earning foreign exchange, right? They should strongly support me."
Hehe, these ghosts come to work, and the money from the human world is definitely useless to them. Most of what they ask for is paper money, which greatly reduces his expenses.
Oh, when the time comes, he can buy some yellow paper and fold gold ingots by himself. Jiang Yiqing's abacus clacked.
The old man watched Jiang Yiqing grow up, so how could he not know what he was thinking? Thinking in his heart, he must do his best to promote this matter.
This is to repair the temple for the ancestor, shouldn't the ancestor help to smooth the relationship?
"Okay, okay, I'll leave first." The old man put his hands behind his back and looked at Jiang Yiqing again: "You haven't eaten well recently? How come you've lost weight again?"
Jiang Yiqing was stunned and said with a smile: "You always say that. I eat well and sleep well, how can I lose weight? Hey, hurry up and find the ghost, I'm in a hurry here."
Under his urging, the old man had to leave in a hurry.
Jiang Yiqing looked a little depressed, touched his face, and muttered: "Are you okay? Have you really lost weight?"
"Hey, I forgot to ask about the formation again!" Jiang Yiqing frowned when he came to his senses.
Sha Tao should be dying soon, but the person who made this formation is probably just a little injured and is still alive and well.
But the injury is enough for him to recuperate for a while, and he shouldn't come out to hurt people in the short term.
At present, he couldn't find the other party's location. He was afraid that he was born in the Year of the Rat and was really good at hiding.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yiqing could only put this matter aside for the time being.
——The
pig spirit finally woke up after sleeping for a few days. It seemed that the ashes had been digested by it. Jiang Yiqing could feel that the pig spirit seemed to be more powerful.
However, the powerful pig spirit was actually quite well-behaved. Jiang Yiqing saw that it mopped the floor obediently and glanced at him from time to time. He was full of questions.
What was going on with the pig spirit? Jiang Yiqing didn't think that the other party was planning anything. It didn't have the brains.
In this case, just don't think about it. Looking at the pig spirit who was trying hard to use its two hooves to press the rag and wipe the floor clean, Jiang Yiqing nodded with satisfaction.
He entered the room, turned on the computer, and decided to clear the private messages in the background. Seeing a bunch of red dots made his OCD feel really uncomfortable.
When the pig spirit saw Jiang Yiqing sitting in front of the computer, he hurriedly followed him on his pig's hooves. When he saw that the other party did not start the live broadcast, he could not help but leave disappointed.
Now the pig spirit has completely lost all other thoughts. Firstly, the good thing that it swallowed before may only be found here with human cubs. Secondly, the pig spirit was shy and thought that this was the first time that it was praised for being cute by so many humans.
If it becomes the pig spirit again, it will definitely not hear these compliments. Then...it's better to stay with the human cubs.
Thinking so, the pig spirit grunted and stuck its butt out to wipe the floor.
Jiang Yiqing noticed the pig spirit's action just now and raised his eyebrows slightly.
His eyes fell on a private message, and he was stunned for a moment before clicking it.
A few days ago...
[Meow Meow Customer Service No. 3]: Dear Mr. Jiang, you have reached the signing standard of the Meow Meow platform. Reply to the private message and sign the contract as soon as possible.
The day before yesterday...
[Meow Meow Customer Service No. 3]: Mr. Jiang, do you have any concerns? Our platform has a large amount of traffic. After signing the contract, new recommendations can increase the traffic.
Yesterday...
[Meow Meow Customer Service No. 3]: Mr. Jiang, if you sign the contract now, you can have a lot of freedom, especially the platform's commission ratio can be 40% to 60%, while other platforms are 50% to 50%!
Just now...
[Meow Meow Customer Service No. 3]: Mr. Jiang QVQ, are you really not considering it? We can reduce the commission rate to 37%, and you can sign the platform's S contract.
Jiang Yiqing read a string of messages and raised his eyebrows slightly. It was not that he was dragging his feet on signing the contract, but... he had completely forgotten about this. If he hadn't seen the private message, he wouldn't have thought that he still needed to sign the contract.
However, signing a contract does have its benefits. Jiang Yiqing checked and found that the other party gave him the highest standard of contract conditions.
Since the other party was so sincere, Jiang Yiqing originally didn't want to change the live broadcast platform, so he just agreed.
[Metaphysics Live Broadcast]: Sure, send me the contract.
[Meow Meow Customer Service No. 3]: !!! Mr. Jiang, you finally replied!
No wonder he was so excited. The platform had already seen Jiang Yiqing's potential a few days ago and issued a death order to sign him.
I thought it was easy, after all, Miaomiao Live is the big brother in the live broadcast industry, who wouldn’t be vying to sign a contract?
I didn’t expect that this Master Jiang was really not an ordinary person. He didn’t reply for several days. The platform was also very anxious, fearing that he would be poached by other platforms, so they could only lower the conditions again and again.
Fortunately, he finally replied.
Jiang Yiqing didn’t know what the other party thought, and after confirming that the other party had mailed the paper version of the contract, he stopped.
After clearing the private messages behind, Jiang Yiqing found that several of them were sent by other platforms. They might be eager to poach him because they saw that he had not signed a contract.
Jiang Yiqing, who had already agreed to sign a contract with Miaomiao Live, was too lazy to read these contents, and directly eliminated the red dots one by one.
Miaomiao Live's headquarters is in Beijing. I don't know if they were afraid that Jiang Yiqing would go back on his word, but they sent the contract to Jiang Yiqing before he went live that afternoon.
Jiang Yiqing was busy starting the live broadcast and had no time to watch it, so he decided to wait until the live broadcast was over.
When he opened the live broadcast room, the pig spirit next to him immediately jumped up, squatted on a stool next to him, and even adjusted his angle to make himself look cuter.
Jiang Yiqing: "..."
After the previous few divinations, Jiang Yiqing's strength was thoroughly proven. Almost as soon as he started broadcasting, someone directly gave him divination money and asked for a connection.
Live broadcast room bullet screen:
"Wow, our Qingqing is really popular, it feels like our own child has grown up
, what's going on?" "Hahaha, I now completely treat Qingqing's live broadcast as a variety show. It's much more interesting than many variety shows, and Qingqing is much prettier than many celebrities."
"Come on, are your hands so fast now? I wanted to tell a fortune, but I didn't get the first one!"
"Do you need to grab it now? Qingqing is really popular."
Jiang Yiqing glanced at the bullet screen and agreed to connect directly.
A man and a woman appeared on the screen, both of them looked to be in their twenties.
When Lu Qing saw herself and her boyfriend Zhuolang appear on the screen, she knew they were connected successfully. She immediately waved her hands excitedly: "Qingqing, I'm your fan, hehe, so excited."
Lu Qing's face was visibly happy. Jiang Yiqing smiled and nodded: "Hello."
Lu Qing didn't know why, but she became even more excited. She grabbed her boyfriend's arm and shook it hard.
Zhuolang looked at his girlfriend helplessly and dotingly, and shook his head: "Please calm down, I'm still here."
Lu Qing felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, and looked at her boyfriend pitifully, and the latter shook his head helplessly.
"Ahhh! If you keep doing this, I'll screw you!"
"Handsome man and beautiful woman, I'm so addicted."
"Another day of crying for other people's love."
Jiang Yiqing looked at the interaction between the two and the content on the barrage, lowered her eyes and took a sip of water: "Are you here to calculate the marriage?"
Lu Qing came to her senses and remembered that she was still connected. She nodded embarrassedly: "Qing... ahem, Master Jiang, my boyfriend and I are planning to get married, and I want you to help me calculate a good day."
In fact, as a fan of Jiang Yiqing, Lu Qing has selfish motives. She is not superstitious about good days or anything like that. She mainly wants to connect with Jiang Yiqing.
Zhuo Lang looked at Lu Yu and said with a smile: "Didn't you say you didn't believe this?"
Lu Yu's thoughts were almost exposed, and she coughed lightly: "What do you know? That was in the past. Master Jiang was amazing."
However, Zhuo Lang looked at Jiang Yiqing, his eyes full of distrust, but he still smiled softly at his girlfriend: "Forget it, it's not a big deal, it's up to you."
Lu Yu pursed her lips and said nothing, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart. She had obviously discussed it with her boyfriend before, and the other party agreed well, but now it seemed like she was making trouble.
But the barrage was full of words like "so sweet", which even made Lu Yu doubt herself.
Until Jiang Yiqing looked at Zhuo Lang and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhuo doesn't seem to believe this."
Zhuo Lang was stunned, and didn't think much about how the other party knew his last name. He smiled and said: "I believe in science more."
Jiang Yiqing didn't look dissatisfied when he heard this, but smiled even bigger: "Well, why don't we count it as a wedding day, and count something interesting, such as...your past, how about it?"
