Mountain dwelling practice: I am a gentle guest in the world
Chapter 210 Prelude to Divination
For a cost-free business, you naturally don’t have to worry about whether the business is good or not, or how many customers come to your business.
The two people in the tent had this mentality. One was sitting inside, scrolling through the entertainment headlines on his mobile phone; the other was sitting on a high chair, drinking home-made jasmine tea, and contentedly watching the people coming and going outside the tent. It was extremely comfortable. .
The Spring Festival is just around the corner, and there are huge crowds of people, some coming out to buy new year’s goods, and some going out to eat, drink and have fun.
It's not uncommon to tell fortunes on the street, but setting up a tent is a bit unassuming. Looking inside again, the decoration inside looks gorgeous and dazzling. When young people pass by, they can't help but come over and ask what it is for.
Fortune tellers only set up a table and use a crystal ball to tell fortunes. Why do they need a tent?
Faced with all kinds of questions that were off-topic, Lan Qiuchen didn't get impatient, but she didn't speak. She just tapped the words on the sign with a pen.
"Can a crystal ball really count?" A young girl was curious.
The boy hugging her wore glasses and looked like a student. This is a young couple. They look like college students in height, but their immature faces give people the feeling of being underage. The girl confirmed to Miss Lan again and again,
"Divination? Just asking about good or bad luck?"
"Yes," Lan Qiuchen nodded in agreement, and Ah Sang heard the noise outside and was transmitting a few words to her, "Don't ask about cause and effect, don't help solve the problem, just ask about the good or bad future."
These words should be written down and stacked under the prompt card.
"The scope of business is too narrow. How can we have business?" the girl kindly reminded, "The fortune teller who sets up a stall at our vegetable market not only asks about good or bad luck, but also helps solve problems."
The price is another matter. If the calculation is accurate and the method of exorcising evil spirits and changing one's life is clever and appropriate, no matter how expensive the charge is, it will be justified.
People like her only ask about good or bad luck, but don't deal with the consequences. Moreover, it uses a crystal ball for divination, which is not suitable for the psychological habits of Chinese babies.
"As long as you promise to ward off evil spirits and change your luck, we will immediately count you as one." The girl was bargaining.
"Yes, and you charge 100 yuan for a fortune telling, while others charge 10 yuan or 20 yuan." The boy beside her echoed, "The fortune-telling stall is eager to see him later. Why is this like this here? It's a bit irresponsible. ah."
Everything is difficult at the beginning. The young couple's inquiries attracted more passers-by who liked to watch the excitement.
Facing the expectant expressions on several faces, Lan Qiuchen smiled brightly, shook her head, and tapped the reminder sign with her pen. After that, he ignored them and continued to watch videos on his phone.
For Chinese babies, when bargaining, if the other party doesn't play with you, it proves that her price cannot be lower.
But a hundred yuan for fortune telling is always too expensive.
In this large square tonight, there are several fortune-telling and feng shui stalls. Regardless of face reading or palm reading, the most expensive one is no more than twenty. And she, this exotic version of the goddess, actually wants a hundred, how can she be so virtuous?
At this moment, two young girls squeezed out of the crowd and asked the young couple politely:
"Do you count? If not, then we both went in?"
"One hundred yuan! Don't you think it's expensive?" The girl looked at the two wrongdoers in disbelief.
One hundred yuan was enough for her to go to the temple to ask for two amulets, why bother asking for just one hexagram here?
"It's okay, for the sake of the crystal ball, I don't know if it's accurate." The two girls smiled and paid with their mobile phones while saying, "But it's the New Year, let's have some fresh fun to celebrate."
If the result goes as expected, it will be a good time to welcome the New Year and celebrate the New Year.
If you don't like it, just treat it as a piece of fun and don't take it to heart. Many fortune tellers start by saying that your life is not bad, but unfortunately there is a calamity at a certain age, and you have to pass that calamity before you can completely sit back and relax.
If you take it seriously, you will lose blood, while the other party will make a lot of money.
So, just listen to fortune telling. The good-sounding music is a joy, and the bad-sounding music is forgotten in an instant. Everyone outside watched helplessly as the two girls walked around the curtain, vaguely seeing a screen over one meter high blocking the inside. The onlookers couldn't help but become more curious, and some even waited for an opportunity to sneak in.
Unexpectedly, a teaching stick pops up next to block the road. Miss Lan, who was admiring the scenery, looked over with gentle eyes and said with a smile:
"If you want to go in, please get your number and queue up, and then go in after successful payment."
The tents are separated by three floors, and Miss Lan's place is the first barrier, like a reception hall. The tent looked quite small from the outside, but when I came in, I realized that the reception area alone was quite wide.
There are two rows of low benches placed neatly beside the tent. They are wooden benches, not plastic benches, and they look stylish. So, several people came over one after another with curiosity on their faces to get their ticket numbers. Whoever's turn it was would pay first before entering.
Lan Qiuchen's compartment was much quieter than the outside, but as soon as the two girls stepped into the inner tent, their ears suddenly became quiet.
"Do you still have soundproofing here?" The two girls were very surprised.
"That's right, please sit down." Sang Yue's hoarse voice added to the mystery at this moment.
A low table is placed in the middle, and the furnishings on both sides are distinct, just like the boundaries between Chu and Han. For example, there was a carpet on her side, so she could sit cross-legged on the floor; on the side facing the screen was the square floor, with three low stools for guests to sit on.
Although the stool is short, it is wide enough, and the space under the table is spacious enough for guests to stretch their legs and rest. I originally wanted to place futon cushions, but I was afraid that the guests would sit too comfortably and ask some unreasonable questions.
Just like this moment——
"Wow, this tent doesn't seem very big from the outside, but why is it so wide inside?" The two girls glanced left and right, with endless emotions and questions at the same time, "The hangings here are all made of cloth, how can they be soundproofed? It's so strange."
"Please don't ask questions that have nothing to do with divination," Sang Yue reminded the two curious babies, staring at them with only a pair of smart eyes on her face, "If you don't ask, I will keep track of time."
If they can't return to the topic within three minutes, the two hundred yuan will be wasted.
"One hundred dollars can only count for one," she added, looking at the two of them, "Who wants to tell the fortune?"
Both girls have curly hair, one reaches her waist and the other only reaches her shoulders.
"Oh, me, me." The shoulder-length girl quickly raised her hands, finally put aside her full curiosity, and looked at Sang Yue seriously, "I want to change jobs next year, but I don't know what my future will be like, and I'm a little worried about not being able to find a job... "
Even if I find a job, I am afraid that the salary will not be as much as what I have in front of me.
There are still a few days until the New Year, and her company only has a holiday on the day before New Year's Eve every year. Sometimes she has to work overtime on New Year's Eve. She hasn't been home for the New Year in three years and has long wanted to resign.
Seeing the girl tell her about the divination with a worried look on her face, Sang Yue felt very happy.
The first business was with a girl and she was asking about her future, which made her secretly happy and happy. God knows, she didn't remember until she set up the tent that she must have encountered many love brains during the divination process. Thinking of Lu Qingzi's fate gave her a headache.
It's okay, okay, it's open for business. I hope everyone comes to ask about the future.
"Stretch out your hand," Sang Yue uncovered the scarf covering the crystal ball, then raised her hand to demonstrate, "Wave it in the air above the crystal ball."
This way, she doesn't have to hold up a crystal ball to see the other person's face. She takes great pains to maintain an inscrutable sense of mystery.
