Everyone refused.
"It's okay." Lin Wanyue wasn't discouraged. She simply said to everyone, "I'm just giving you all a way out. If you encounter anything, you can come to me!"
"But... I don't know if the strange things I've encountered are ghosts? If not, then I've wasted my money!" one person in the crowd asked, a question that seemed to be etched in their mind.
"Yes, yes!"
The others nodded in agreement, seemingly having the same thought.
After all, the people queuing up for fortune telling at Lin Wanyue's place are all a bit stingy.
Upon hearing the price of ten taels of silver, his heart clenched, and he was so preoccupied with the money that he didn't even think about seeing a ghost.
Lin Wanyue actually nodded: "Yes, unless you really encounter some difficulties, you should not easily come to me."
Lin Wanyue wanted to make money, but she didn't want to work herself to death.
Although ghost hunting is within her area of expertise, there are experts in the human world, and ghost hunting is risky.
Lin Wanyue didn't intend to let them get away with it for free.
"..." Upon hearing that they would be charged ten taels of silver regardless of whether they caught the ghost, everyone clutched their purses even tighter.
Of course, at the same time, everyone also felt that spending ten coins on a fortune telling was indeed a good deal!
...
These past few days, Little Pink Butterfly has been busy at home practicing her club, wanting to have a handy tool that will be convenient when fighting ghosts.
Lai Fu couldn't stand seeing how much effort Lin Wanyue was putting into her ghost business, so he followed her to the shop.
Seeing that the guests complained about the price and didn't want Lin Wanyue to exorcise the ghost, Laifu pulled out his tongue and hung it on a tree branch, where it fell down.
He moved closer to Lin Wanyue and said, "Since they all think it's too expensive, I'll go find them tonight and have some fun. They probably won't think ten taels of silver is too much then."
"Hmm?" Lin Wanyue glanced at Laifu's hanged-ghost appearance and warned, "You're doing this to lose your virtue, and you want to bring retribution upon me too?"
Lin Xiangwu, who had just finished training Lin Zheyun, floated from his home to the shop, intending to visit Liu Junlan. He also overheard the conversation between Laifu and Lin Wanyue.
Lin Xiangwu picked up a pebble from the ground and flicked it, hitting Laifu's long tongue with it. Laifu screamed in pain and quickly pulled his tongue away.
"Waaaaahh ...
Kill the demon!
Lin Xiangwu nodded approvingly at Lin Wanyue: "That's right, we Lin family members should act uprightly and honestly, and not do these deceitful and false things!"
Laifu examined his tongue, then squatted down on the side, sobbing, and mumbled, "Then why did you use hidden weapons and throw stones at me!"
"I am doing this to warn you. A real man should act with integrity and uprightness, and should not harm others, especially ordinary people," Lin Xiangwu said solemnly.
Lai Fu was not convinced and felt that Lin Xiangwu was definitely retaliating for him speaking ill of Lin Wanyue behind her back.
"I know, I know..." But looking at the stones all over the ground, he still tearfully admitted defeat, nodding and saying, "I was just saying that, I definitely won't do those things, Grandpa, don't worry."
"That's good!" Lin Xiangwu said, "A gentleman loves money, but he acquires it in a proper way. Using these petty tricks will only harm others and oneself in the end."
"Uh-huh……"
Laifu nodded vigorously.
Lin Xiangwu stayed at the shop for about half an hour, and Liu Junlan and the others had already sold out all the remaining items, especially the small ingredients used for additives, which were completely gone.
With the copper coins she earned today, Lin Wanyue not only bought two catties of pastries, but also several catties of meat.
This was all thanks to the one hundred coins that Li Dechang contributed, which she used to buy meat.
Grandpa is back, Grandma is happy, and she is happy too, so let's make sure the whole family is happy with the meal!
However, on the way back, Lin Wanyue discovered that because she couldn't use the spiritual incense casually outside, her grandmother couldn't see Lin Xiangwu, who was always by her side.
If only Grandma could see Grandpa all the time, instead of always relying on Lingxiang.
After thinking about it, Lin Wanyue went back and had Lin Weiming carve a plaque out of locust wood and hang it on the roof beam.
The locust tree is also known as the ghost tree.
This thing is quite hard to find.
"Wanwan, what do you need this for? What's the use of carving a plaque?" Lin Weiming found a piece of locust wood the size of his palm according to Lin Wanyue's request, and spent one tael of silver to buy a suitable carving knife from the blacksmith shop.
He didn't spend much money on the wood itself, but he felt the little carving knife was quite expensive and was a bit reluctant to spend the money.
"Father, just listen to me!" Lin Wanyue said, "You'll know when you finish carving the wood."
"Oh... alright then!" Lin Weiming didn't know what his daughter was up to, but he knew she was different from ordinary girls, and there must be a reason why she asked him to do something.
But Lin Wanyue soon realized that she seemed to have overestimated her father.
Lin Weiming has absolutely no skill in carving!
Lin Wanyue glared angrily at the half of the locust wood that had been ruined by carving. "Dad, how come you can't even carve wood?"
"I've never studied it, how would I know? I think my carving looks pretty good, doesn't it? But what's the purpose of this talisman?" Lin Weiming looked at the crooked talisman he had carved and felt that it was somewhat similar to the one on the paper Lin Wanyue had given him.
It's already quite impressive that he can carve a memorial tablet!
The ghosts in the house all floated over when they heard the noise.
Lin Xiangwu stretched out his finger and pointed at the wood: "Carve the lines here straighter, and carve a little lower. Don't worry about ruining the wood."
