Wei Mingjie actually did what he said.
The next morning, he took a bus to the provincial capital to seek medical treatment.
Jiang Feng began to visit the people who matched with the other customers one by one.
Because Jiang Feng chose people with a maximum matching value of no less than 80 and a current matching value of no less than 65, with Jiang Feng's matchmaking, the three steps of the blind date went very smoothly.
In less than a week, except for Wei Mingjie and Zhao Jing who was far away in the provincial capital, the other six clients including Zhu Shiliu either set a wedding date or registered for marriage directly.
In rural areas, not everyone has a wedding banquet.
For example, second, third, or Nth marriages, or families with less favorable conditions, they usually don’t have a wedding banquet. After registering their marriage, the newlyweds just invite close relatives within three generations to have a meal together, and that’s it!
Among these six customers, four chose not to hold a wedding banquet, and only Zhu Shiliu and another customer chose to hold a wedding banquet on National Day.
Including the previous three clients, Jiang Feng now has five clients who choose to get married on National Day!
Recently, Jiang Feng has received a lot of gifts and red envelopes.
Among them, gifts and red envelopes for matchmaking were received seven times, with a total value of about eight thousand.
I received six red envelopes from the blind date, with a total value of five thousand.
I also received six red envelopes for guarding the house, with a total value of five thousand.
I received four thank-you gifts and red envelopes as matchmakers, with a total value of about 68,000 yuan.
All in all, the red envelopes received amounted to 74,000 yuan, and the gifts were worth about 22,000 yuan.
If the previous income is included, Jiang Feng has earned nearly 140,000 yuan in cash red envelopes and gifts worth about 40,000 yuan in less than two months.
Moreover, this does not include the five clients who got married on National Day. Their thank-you gifts and red envelopes will not be given to them until after the National Day wedding banquet, which will definitely be another considerable income.
You wouldn't know until you calculate it. If you tell others about this income, it will shock everyone. I'm afraid you won't be able to find a matchmaker who makes so much money in the whole country!
Jiang Feng was not surprised by this. After all, he was a master at matchmaking and still maintained a 100% success rate. Naturally, he was unmatched by other matchmakers.
Just like a famous quote in "Swordsman": "Wherever there are people, there are grudges. Where there are grudges, there will be the Jianghu. People are the Jianghu."
Jiang Feng was making a lot of money as a matchmaker, but what he didn't know was that someone in the village hated him to death. This person was none other than Aunt Wang, another matchmaker in Longshan Village.
Before Jiang Feng became a matchmaker, Aunt Wang was the only professional matchmaker in the entire Longshan Village.
Although it is not so exaggerated that everyone in the village would look to her for matchmaking, it must be said that a large number of bachelors in the village did look for Aunt Wang for matchmaking, but Aunt Wang's success rate was not high.
Over the years, Aunt Wang has made a lot of money as a matchmaker with her eloquence. The three-story new house her family built a few years ago was earned from her years of matchmaking.
Before Jiang Feng became a matchmaker, Aunt Wang could basically make a match every month on average, and those who failed would receive matchmaking gifts and red envelopes. When combined with the red envelopes from blind dates, the total income was a considerable sum.
Not to mention that when arranging a blind date, the matchmaker can also go to a restaurant for a big meal.
But ever since Jiang Feng returned to the village to act as a matchmaker, those valuable gifts and red envelopes have become increasingly distant from Aunt Wang!
Especially after Jiang Feng helped Jiang Wendong, the number one bachelor in the village, to find a partner, Aunt Wang, who had been a matchmaker in Longshan Village for more than 20 years, completely lost her market!
As the saying goes, cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents. It's no wonder that Aunt Wang is jealous of Jiang Feng.
At this time, Aunt Wang was at home discussing with her husband, three sons, and daughters-in-law how to start against Jiang Feng, the powerful competitor.
"Let's talk about what to do. If we let that boy continue like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to be a matchmaker anymore!" Aunt Wang said with an unpleasant look on her face.
The eldest son suggested: "Mom, why don't you learn from others and not ask for money from the matchmaker. Let people pay after the deal is done. This way you can not only gain a reputation, but also the thank you red envelopes given by others for the matchmaking will not be a small amount."
Aunt Wang sighed and said, "It is the custom to negotiate the matchmaker's fee when making a match. We have been doing this for many years. In addition, when inviting a matchmaker, going on a blind date, or looking after the house, we only give small red envelopes. The full matchmaker's fee is only paid after the match is completed.
So the key to the problem is not whether the matchmaker money was agreed upon, but that the guy surnamed Jiang is really too weird. He can even match Jiang Wendong. It's simply weird!"
Aunt Wang's husband couldn't help but say, "That boy is really capable. Jiang Wendong has two paralyzed patients to take care of, and his family conditions are poor. Any matchmaker who mentions him would shake his head. But that boy found a wife for Jiang Wendong. Although she is not good-looking, this has made the villagers look at him with new eyes."
The eldest daughter-in-law continued, "The most incredible thing is that he has been matchmaking for several famous bachelors in the village these past few days, and he has succeeded in all of them!"
The second son interrupted, "It is said that in the past few days alone, the guy surnamed Jiang has made a full 60,000 to 70,000 yuan. He is really a very profitable guy!"
Next, the youngest son, the second daughter-in-law, and the youngest daughter-in-law all spoke, and they were all amazed at how capable and profitable the boy named Jiang was!
Aunt Wang's face darkened when she heard this, and she immediately scolded, "Okay, stop praising her. She has cut off our family's source of income. If I can't be a matchmaker, I'm afraid your future life will be difficult. You should think about what to do!"
Hearing this, the three sons and daughters-in-law looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
After all, matchmaking is someone's freedom, and they are doing it in a serious manner. Can they still come to their door and bully them? Do they really think that the laws of this era are just for show?
To put it another way, even if we put aside the law, they would never dare to do such a thing.
Because Longshan Village is mainly populated by people with the surname Jiang, people with other surnames, even if they don't have to behave themselves, would never dare to provoke people with the surname Jiang. That would definitely be asking for trouble.
Since the threat of force doesn't work and we can't beat them through normal competition, what else can we do?
Several people thought hard, and finally the younger son, who was more flexible in thinking, came up with a solution and said, "Mom, since we can't compete head-on, we can only use dirty tricks!"
Aunt Wang's eyes lit up and she asked, "What's the trick? Tell me!"
The youngest son said, "Just do something bad to him. Next, we will keep an eye on the guy named Jiang. When he arranges for the girl to come over to visit our house, we will do this... then that... then this..."
The more Aunt Wang listened, the happier she became. She praised her youngest son again and again, and then began to "deploy troops" according to her youngest son's plan. In this battle, victory was the only option.
If she wins, her family might have a good life ahead of them. If she loses, she will probably have to change her career or go somewhere else to be a matchmaker, because there will no longer be a market for her in Longshan Village.
