Two thousand yuan for an amulet was indeed a bit expensive, so I took this opportunity to drive away a group of people who were just following the trend.
However, most of those who can visit the ancient city on weekdays are not short of money. After hearing Jing Cheng’s offer, most people did not think it was expensive and paid the money readily.
The young man wearing a hat who was hiding at the back saw this scene and said in disbelief: "Fuck! There are people who buy it for 2,000 yuan? Aren't these people agents?"
The young man didn't wait for an answer, he turned around and saw the director looking down at his wallet.
youth:"……"
The director finally took out a credit card and handed it to the young man: "Can you ask him if he can use the card?"
youth:"…………"
The director suggested earnestly: "Safety is the most important thing when recording a program like ours. You should buy one too."
Seeing that he was so persistent, the young man had no choice but to take the card with a sullen look on his face and squeeze into the crowd.
The director lowered his head and adjusted the focus of the camera, preparing to zoom in on Jing Cheng's face, but when he turned the lens, he inadvertently recorded the face of the person sitting next to him.
...
...
Moreover, this face was very familiar to him, and the director was stunned for a moment.
Isn’t this the young master of the Qin family?
His boss's nephew...why is he here?
The director was just hesitating whether he should go over to say hello, when he heard his cell phone ringing. He glanced casually and saw that the caller ID was Yan Xiu's agent. He wanted to hang up, but after a moment's hesitation, he picked up the phone.
He can't afford to offend the current top traffic in the entertainment industry, the company's cash cow.
"Director Zhao? Our Xiaoyan has already arrived at the ancient city. The car is on the way to the hotel. It will take about ten minutes to arrive. I hope it didn't waste your time?"
Director Zhao thought to himself, I've been waiting for you here for most of the day, you guys are really shameless, but he said, "Don't delay, don't delay, as long as everyone arrives safely, how about this, I'll invite everyone to have a simple meal together tonight to welcome Yan Xiu..."
"Oh! You are so polite. Our Xiaoyan still needs your care for this show."
Hehe... Director Zhao: "How could that be? It should be Yan Xiu who took care of me. Without the participation of top-tier traffic stars, the show wouldn't be as popular as it is now."
After the two of them praised each other's business, they hung up the phone.
After the young man squeezed out of the crowd with difficulty, what he saw was the gloomy face of their director Zhao.
"Did you buy it?" Director Zhao asked, restraining his expression.
"There were too many people, but I was quick and grabbed two." The young man handed the credit card and a triangular amulet to the other party depressedly, "You can't pay by card, I paid by scanning the code, 4,000 yuan, not a penny saved for me."
Director Zhao took the things and nodded indifferently.
The young man carefully observed his expression: "Director, what happened?"
Director Zhao: "Yan Xiu is here, we have to go back quickly. By the way, did you tell that young Taoist priest just now?"
"I didn't have time..." The young man scratched his head awkwardly. Seeing that the other party's face had turned darker, he quickly added, "But I added him on WeChat."
Director Zhao saw that there were too many people gathered in front of him, and his identity would not attract too much attention, so he had to take everyone away first.
There is no need for a Taoist priest at the beginning of the show, so let’s wait a while.
And on the highway dozens of kilometers away, in a commercial vehicle, the vehicle was running smoothly.
A fashionable woman in her forties hung up the phone angrily and cursed: "This little fox is so cunning!"
Lying on the seat behind her was a very handsome young man. He had semi-long black hair, fair skin, bright red lips, and the contrast of black, white and red gave people a breathtaking beauty. He had a high nose bridge, a narrow curve at the end of his eyes, and thick long eyelashes cast shadows under his eyelids. He lay quietly like an ancient painting of Sleeping Beauty.
He was taking a nap with his eyes closed. When he heard the woman's scolding, his body suddenly trembled, his eyelids trembled violently, and he opened his eyes slightly and then quickly closed them again.
The woman in front didn't notice.
…
The tourists who failed to buy the talismans were eagerly waiting for Jing Cheng to draw again. However, Jing Cheng was already surrounded by the smell of money coming from all directions, and his mind was full of "so much money, so much money". He was so obsessed with money that he couldn't get out.
If the mood for drawing talismans is gone, the success rate will naturally decline.
After drawing several useless talismans in a row, Jing Cheng had no choice but to stop writing.
Talisman paper and cinnabar are limited and cannot be wasted like this.
Jing Cheng helplessly lamented that he was too impetuous...
That's not how you make money.
The people who bought the talismans were delighted and immediately followed Jing Cheng's instructions to fold the talismans into a triangle shape and wear them with them.
The effect of the talisman was immediate, or perhaps it was a psychological effect on the crowd, but everyone who wore the amulet felt refreshed, their complexion improved visibly, and they all exclaimed it was magical.
Now even the people standing on the periphery watching the fun looked at Jing Cheng with strange eyes.
It’s impossible that all these people are just agents, right?
Those who didn't make a purchase because they thought the price was too high are now regretting it. They should have made a purchase when the time was right. The quantity is limited, so they shouldn't have hesitated!
"Little Taoist priest, can you give me a contact number?"
"Scan the QR code and add WeChat?"
"Young Taoist priest, can you do Feng Shui? I recently bought a house and I want to find someone to take a look at it. I wonder if you have time recently?"
"Master, please add me as your friend. Next time if you have a talisman, post it on your Moments and I can help you promote it..."
Everyone looked at Jing Cheng expectantly, their eyes filled with indescribable eagerness.
Jing Cheng and Qin Yan looked at each other.
They both knew that Jing Cheng was just drawing talismans on the street casually, but now it seemed that he was planning to develop into a long-term customer.
Being praised so enthusiastically, Jing Cheng was still a little hesitant, and his subconscious reaction was to turn around and ask the people around him: "What do you think?"
Qin Yan thought to himself, what's there to hesitate about? But he was also secretly happy that the other party thought of him first when faced with uncertainty. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "I think this is possible."
Jing Cheng thought to himself that I came to the ancient city to solve problems. Adding these good friends would mean endless troubles, and what if one day he accidentally went back a hundred years ago... Of course, he had a premonition that unless he turned back time, he would never be able to go back.
"If you are going to work in a related profession in the future, it is very necessary to reserve customers in the early stage." Qin Yan spared no effort to analyze it for him, "Just like they said, it can also help you promote and make you famous."
"No matter what industry you are in, people who stand at the top are always looked up to. Isn't it better to become famous as early as possible? I've heard Fu Le say before that his cousin's friend is a Feng Shui master, and he charges a minimum of one million for each Feng Shui reading..."
When Jing Cheng heard this, that awkward little hesitation immediately disappeared.
Fu Le's cousin's friend is the descendant of Zhang Tianshi, and he actually starts with a million yuan for feng shui? He solved the problem of Xu's family, looked at feng shui and saved people, but he only got 100,000 yuan for it.
You don’t know until you compare. Once you compare... it’s simply outrageous!
So Jing Cheng decisively took out his mobile phone and brought up the QR code interface for adding friends.
After a long while, the onlookers left with satisfaction.
The benefits of having a disciple can be seen now. Jing Cheng only said "I don't want to be disturbed all the time", and Qin Yan quickly got it.
He helped Jing Cheng classify all the people he had just added into a group called "Customers", and blocked those people from the Moments that Jing Cheng had previously posted that leaked personal information. He sent a message to the Moments that roughly meant "don't disturb him unless it's important", and by the way, helped him block his family's network, and then returned his phone to him.
Then the two of them lowered their heads and began to count the money.
"Um...excuse me." A troubled voice sounded.
The two busy people looked up and found that there was a young man standing in front of them who did not leave with the crowd.
The young man didn't get the talisman just now, and he looked a little disappointed. He looked at Jing Cheng hesitantly and didn't speak for a long time.
Jing Cheng remembered that he was the one who just said that he was a virgin solo.
The young man had fair skin and handsome features. Seeing Jing Cheng's puzzled look, his face suddenly turned red. He slowly squatted down, looked at Jing Cheng, and then suddenly turned to look at Qin Yan.
Jing Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and he had an inexplicable strange feeling.
"Can I ask..." The young man looked at him shyly, "What's your name?"
Qin Yan: “?”
Jing Cheng raised his eyebrows. Why did something seem wrong the more he looked at it?
The young man bit his lip and said slowly: "Or, do you have a boyfriend?"
Qin Yan: “…”
Jing Cheng: “…”
Young man: "I feel like you are the same, and you happen to be my type. When I saw you..."
Qin Yan finally came to his senses when he heard this, his face darkened, and he quickly interrupted his next sentence: "I'm not!"
"Wait!" Jing Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say you wanted to find a girlfriend? This boyfriend, what, what is this?"
Please forgive Jing Cheng, this old antique from a hundred years ago, for never having heard of a boyfriend in his life.
The young man blushed and said, "There were too many people just now and I was embarrassed to say that I am gay..."
Jing Cheng's mind was full of question marks: "Give? What is that?"
"It's... homosexuality, two men living together for life."
The young man didn't expect that in today's information explosion, there are still people who don't know what homosexuality is. He was a little surprised at first, but when he thought about Jing Cheng's profession, he didn't find it strange anymore.
Taoists definitely have feudal ideas, so it's normal not to understand them.
After the young man finished explaining to Jing Cheng, he couldn't help but look at Qin Yan: "My feeling can't be wrong, you should be 1, right?"
People in the gay circle are always unrestrained. Basically, if they fall in love with each other, they can get matched that same night, so the guy didn't think he was being abrupt.
However, Qin Yan, as the person being confessed to, felt so embarrassed listening to it.
What's more, his sweetheart is right beside him, what's going on...
Jing Cheng felt that his worldview had been strongly impacted. He silently digested the young man's explanation and was unable to utter a word for a long time.
Seeing Jing Cheng frowning and keeping silent without any special reaction, Qin Yan felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over his head, which instantly calmed his heated mind.
He simply threw in the towel and said, "I am, but I already have someone I like." So you can just go wherever you want.
Although Jing Cheng was in a state of deep thought, his ears were not deaf. When he heard Qin Yan's words, he was startled and turned his head.
This kind of top-quality product is always in high demand. The young man had a premonition and was not surprised to hear this. He could only say with a dejected look: "Oh... okay."
Jing Cheng was shocked. He stared at Qin Yan's serious profile and thought, I haven't figured out who your peach blossom is yet, and you're already saying you have someone you like?
The young man didn't feel embarrassed even though his confession failed. He said hello to the two of them and left quickly.
Jing Cheng was curious and wondered who this person was.
Just when he was about to ask, there was a sudden loud noise not far away, followed by a crackling sound of something falling to the ground, and bursts of exclamations came from the crowd.
An angry voice cursed: "You old liar! If I don't beat you to death today, I won't be named Chen!!"

The author has something to say:
Suddenly I realized that many of the events in my chapters happened on the same day.
My protagonist is so tired_(:з」∠)_
ps: Well, I am the kind of person who writes very slowly. It takes me five to six hours to write 3,000 words. I only have time to write at night. I know that it is easy to dampen enthusiasm if you keep chasing after more, so... the little angels who mind can grow fat~ but please don't forget me~
