Chapter 385 The Metaphysics Master in the City



"Hmm~ This lady's appearance is a bit hard to describe, she looks suspicious."

Xiao Li and Xiao Jiu analyzed the situation in their minds and finally found their first customer of the day.

"My friend, judging from your appearance, you should not go out today; you will suffer financial loss today."

Pan Yue was quite anxious; her son had been taken to the hospital, and she needed to send the money over as soon as possible.

"Master, I'm sorry, I have an urgent matter to attend to today, so I'll be leaving now."

Xiao Li's hand was pushed away, but she wasn't in a hurry.

This lady has a dignified appearance, with a fleshy nose and thick earlobes, indicating that she will be wealthy and blessed in her later years.

However, her nose was red today, with a scratch in the middle, indicating that she would lose a lot of money today.

Sure enough, before Pan Yue had even crossed the overpass, a young man behind her bumped into her and snatched her bag.

"Ah... my bag! Someone help! Stop him! He stole my bag!"

Xiao Li rushed forward and jumped off the overpass.

A young man in the crowd who was filming the scenery immediately pointed his video camera at Xiaoli, capturing her graceful figure.

Pan Yue ran after him, and just as the man was about to run into the crowd, he suddenly fell to the ground, clutching his leg and howling in pain.

"Ouch... my foot, take me to the hospital quickly."

Pan Yue looked at Xiao Li, who was clapping her hands beside him, and suddenly remembered his impatience with the master just now.

She picked up her bag from the ground and gave Xiaoli a fawning smile.

"Master, thank you so much."

She thought for a moment, then took her phone out of her bag and handed it over.

"Master, please leave your contact information. I'm in a real hurry today. I'll contact you tomorrow."

"I'm around here. Come here if you're looking for me."

Pan Yue then put his phone away, called the police, and started chatting with Xiao Li.

"Master, your calculations are incredibly accurate, and your skills are superb. I truly admire you."

Metaphysics is quite common in this world, and it's widely accepted by ordinary people.

Xiao Li nodded. That's right. She had figured it out just by browsing through the original owner's memories.

The police arrived quickly and took the young man back to give a statement. Xiao Li went with him, and the boy who was filming also volunteered to go along.

The matter was not complicated, and there was video evidence. Ten minutes later, the three of them left.

Of course, the young man who snatched the bag was left behind and will face legal consequences.

"etc!"

Xiao Li looked at the boy, and unconsciously used the skills she had just learned.

This boy is of average appearance, but he is incredibly lucky. You can tell just by looking at his chin and his lips, which are the legendary "bean lips".

This luck is simply incredible.

"What do you need? Do you want your fortune told? Fortune telling costs 100, destiny prediction costs 80."

Pang Bowen was taken aback; he hadn't expected that this girl was a fortune teller.

The main reason he didn't recognize Xiaoli was that she wasn't wearing a Taoist robe or any other attire today.

"Well, I just recorded you. You're really good at fighting. I'd like to edit it and post it online. Is that okay?"

Xiao Li nodded, "Sure, remember to share half the money with me if you become famous."

Pang Bowen chuckled. He himself wasn't even confident he'd become famous, yet she was already asking for money.

Scratching the back of his head, Pang Bowen spoke up somewhat sheepishly.

"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. My account only has a few hundred followers, so I probably don't have any income yet."

Xiao Li didn't care at all. What was there to be afraid of? She was bound to become famous sooner or later.

"Just remember to give me half of what you make."

She waved and left, leaving Pang Bowen deep in thought.

In this world, Xiao Li's identity is that of a successor of metaphysics, which means she is destined not to have much money.

Fortunately, she has space and plenty of food and drink, so she doesn't really spend much money.

As it was getting dark, Xiao Li slowly headed home; she still had to return to the mountain.

After thinking for a moment, I took out some spirit rice, vegetables, and fruits to take back to Jingyan; it would be good for her health.

The transmigrated woman hasn't arrived yet, so what she needs to do is improve her strength so she can deal with her.

As for the daily face readings, she considered it a kind of training. It was Xiaoli's first time encountering metaphysics, and she was quite interested in it.

Even if it doesn't cost much, it's still quite interesting.

When Xiaoli thought of money, she remembered her promise to Wang Qiao. She still needed to make some skincare products to earn some extra money.

Xiaoli cut down a bamboo stalk by the mountain road and dragged it back to Lotus Temple.

"Xiao Xiao, what do you need the bamboo for?"

Xiao Li answered while chopping with a machete.

"I'm planning to make some skincare products, the kind I use on my face myself, and sell them to my classmates."

Jingyan sighed, lamenting that she was a huge burden on her apprentice, causing her to worry about making ends meet.

Xiao Li glanced at Jing Yan and said, "Master, don't worry, I've already thought of a way to make money. This skincare product is simple and effective. It's perfect to sell it to people who need it. This money will be enough for us to eat in the future."

Fortunately, because the original owner was short of money, she tinkered with a lot of things, and this skincare product was one of the more successful ones.

This recipe was also found by the original owner in the temple's collection of books.

Jingyan nodded and started to help. She felt stronger today, perhaps her health was improving.

Xiao Li didn't object; for two people, working together is the right way to live.

Xiao Li modified the recipe again, resulting in a product with a purer color and better effects. She even gave it a name: Jade Face Cream.

Xiao Li polished the bamboo, and it turned out quite beautiful.

"This box is so pretty!"

Jingyan was genuinely praising her apprentice; she was truly capable, having figured it out on her own and produced something so beautiful.

Xiao Li paused for a moment. Could she say that she learned it in the primitive world? Back then, everything was done by hand, so it naturally became easy after doing it a lot.

"Master, keep this to wipe your face. We should all look beautiful too."

Jingyan was amused by her, but she still accepted it; she really liked it.

Xiaoli made ten in total, each one small, each holding 150 ml, enough to last three months if used sparingly.

Students these days have money; selling one for 100 yuan isn't a problem. So she plans to buy bottles to fill them up.

The next day, the beautiful and fragrant Jade Face Cream was indeed well-received by everyone.

Wang Qiao also used her silver tongue to bring in several classmates from wealthy families.

Apart from the two given to Jingyan and Wang Qiao, the remaining eight were all sold.

Xiao Li gave all the money to Wang Qiao, saying, "Qiao'er, you're in charge of buying bottles and selling the goods. Here's the money; we'll split it next time we make a profit."

Wang Qiao nodded happily. Her family wasn't well-off either, and she was just happy to have a bowl of soup with them.

"Xiao Xiao, don't worry, you just focus on making the finished product, and leave everything else to me. I only need a delivery fee, and I'll keep track of it."

"I'll give you 30% of the profits; we're counting on you from now on."
