Antiques Street.
After resting for a few days, Lin Xi returned to her stall.
Qian Fugui and Ji Heng saw her and immediately ran over.
"Master, you've arrived."
"Boss, you've arrived."
Lin Xi looked at the two of them and asked, "Don't you two have anything better to do all day?"
Ji Heng: "I didn't have class today, so I came here specifically to observe the fortune teller."
Qian Fugui: "I've collected all the rent this month, and I really have nothing to do, so I'll help the master maintain order."
"Alright, whatever makes you happy."
Lin Xi walked towards her small stool, but Qian Fugui stopped her. "Master, what have you thought about what I mentioned last time?"
“We can go somewhere else.” Lin Xi stood on the steps and looked out. “I’m not picky, any room is fine.”
"Master, come with me."
Qian Fugui took out a bunch of keys and searched for three minutes before finding the right one.
He opened the large door next to him. The space inside was spacious, with landscape paintings hanging on the walls and a plaque above that read: "Divine Calculation Hall".
Qian Fugui grinned foolishly, "Master, not bad, right?"
Lin Xi nodded, "That's good, that's good. Let the elderly folks come in."
Qian Fugui waved and shouted, "Master Lin is starting to tell fortunes, everyone come in quickly!"
A bunch of people squeezed in, and Ji Heng suggested, "Boss, there are so many people. Why don't we create a group chat and announce in the group how many divinations are needed and who wants to do the divination?"
“Sure.” Lin Xi looked at the familiar faces. “Most of the old men and women on the antique street have come to me for a reading. They’re just as bored as you two, so they come to listen to gossip.”
"However, as the number of people increases, this is indeed a problem."
Qian Fugui raised his hand, "I grew up in this area, and I know everyone here."
Ji Heng continued, "I can create a mini-program where people can draw lots three times a day. Wouldn't that be incredibly exciting?"
Lin Xi said, "Do whatever you want. If anyone encounters a malevolent ghost, come to me immediately. For ordinary divinations about studies, marriage, or career, come one by one in line."
Qian Fugui and Ji Heng nodded. "We understand."
The two exchanged a glance, then immediately looked away, secretly competing with each other.
Qian Fugui: He's just a college student, but he's bound to become the master's top disciple.
Ji Heng: He's just a fake master; he'll definitely become the boss's number one subordinate.
Lin Xi leaned back in her chair and began today's fortune telling.
The first one was a young woman who seemed somewhat shy.
Lin Xi raised her hand. "Sit down. What's the big deal?"
"Oh, okay, thank you, Master."
Chen Jingyi smiled and gave her birth date, "I want to calculate my work."
“I graduated with my master’s degree this year and got into a high school in Beijing, but my boyfriend wants me to go south with him to do business.”
She added, "My boyfriend's parents are both in business."
Lin Xi glanced at her. "Jade business?"
“Yes, that’s right.” Chen Jingyi’s eyes lit up. “Master, you’re really accurate. My boyfriend’s family seems to be in the jade raw material business, but I don’t know much about it.”
Lin Xi bluntly stated, "You are not destined for windfall gains. I suggest you stay in Beijing and become a high school teacher."
"Unexpected wealth refers to income from unexpected sources, such as winning the lottery or becoming rich overnight through gambling."
"Your birth chart shows that your Direct Wealth star is in harmony with your Self-element, and your Direct Officer star is favorable. You are suited to working within the system, but not to engaging in business, especially the jade business."
"Your studies have been smooth sailing, and you have a relatively simple personality. The school environment is more suitable for you."
Chen Jingyi nodded as if she understood, "Master, I'll listen to you."
She was torn because she had finally passed the exam to get a permanent position at a high school in Beijing, but her boyfriend wanted her to go to the south.
Chen Jingyi was reluctant to go. She grew up in the north and studied in Beijing for her undergraduate and graduate degrees. Her parents were also in Beijing.
She didn't want to live too far from her parents, but what about her boyfriend...?
Chen Jingyi hesitated for a moment, then took out her phone and scanned another thousand yuan. "Master, please help me with my marriage."
"It's nothing, no need to pay more." Lin Xi looked at her birth date and time and calculated with her fingers.
"If the earthly branch of the day pillar is Seven Killings, one will meet their true love relatively late and get married relatively late."
"However, a proper official star generates proper wealth, so your destined partner will be a benefactor who will accompany you throughout your life and help you in both your career and family."
Chen Jingyi pinched her fingertips. "Master, I understand."
Her current boyfriend is not her soulmate, she doesn't want to live in the south, and they will most likely break up in the end.
Let's break up then. While we're still young, let's focus on our careers, teach high school students well, and strive to become an outstanding teacher.
Chen Jingyi bowed and said, "Thank you for your teachings, Master. I'll be leaving now."
"goodbye."
Lin Xi waved her hand, "Next."
Qian Fugui and Ji Heng stood to the side, occasionally handing her water and melon seeds, following Lin Xi around, and hearing many interesting things every day.
However, they didn't understand a single word of the fortune-telling terminology.
Seven Killings, Direct Officer, Indirect Wealth, etc. What are all these things? I'll never be able to enter the realm of metaphysics in this lifetime.
Lin Xi yawned.
Today's divination was just another ordinary one; I didn't encounter any evil spirits, so it was a bit boring.
She patted her face. "The last one."
A man wearing a mask squeezed in and said in a very low voice, "Master, this is a bit special. Could you come with me? The price is negotiable."
Lin Xi looked up, her eyes widening instantly.
This person has a very heavy yin energy, mixed with a faint trace of blood energy.
Big work is coming!
Lin Xi immediately perked up, "Okay, but let's make it clear beforehand, I need to pay a thousand yuan for the fortune telling first. The specific fee will depend on the situation, and more money will be needed for important matters."
“No problem.” Su Zikun nodded quickly. “Master, please.”
Lin Xi stood up.
Qian Fugui and Ji Heng followed.
Su Zikun blocked them, saying, "Excuse me, you two, this matter must be kept confidential, and it's not convenient for outsiders to be present."
Qian Fugui and Ji Heng both sighed.
"Sigh, I can't stand gossip when it comes to big events."
Despite the regret, they respected the wishes of the customer and Linxi.
Su Zikun stopped in front of a black van. "Master, please. My artist is inside."
artist?
star?
Lin Xi got into the car out of curiosity.
The people on the bus were completely covered up, wearing hats, masks, and sunglasses. Apart from their hands, not a single patch of skin was exposed.
"Su Zikun, who is she?!"
The man spoke, his tone extremely impatient.
Su Zikun leaned close to his ear and whispered something.
The man became even angrier, "I don't want her to leave!"
