Chapter 129 Setting up a stall and unraveling the lottery
The four of them found an empty table and sat down. Xin Yan took the initiative to get up and prepare food for Wu Ye.
Wu Ye nodded and thanked Xin Yan. Then he asked Yaoyao and Qiqi to sit obediently, saying that he had some small things to do and would be back soon.
In fact, the purpose of Wu Ye coming here was not to eat. He walked outside the canteen of Ligang Shipping Bureau.
When Wu Ye passed by Xin Yan just now, he noticed that many workers were squatting here after meals, smoking cigarettes and chatting.
"Hey, have you heard? Master Yuheng Xingkeqing proposed to implement a water conservancy project in Liyue Port."
"What the hell, what does this water conservancy project have to do with us?"
"How does it matter? I heard that Master Keqing plans to build a waterway in the city as the first step. Someone must be doing this. We will start recruiting workers in the afternoon. We will go over and have a look later."
"Really?! Ma Laoliu, you are still well-informed. Master Keqing treats our workers very well."
"That's for sure! If we can be selected, we won't have to compete with others for jobs in the dock, and we won't have to be pressed for wages by that stupid foreman."
"Indeed, the work here is tiring and the pay is low. The dock foreman has been exploiting us. He used to sign contracts with us, but now there are more people and less work... Sigh."
......
Wu Ye listened silently and then remembered it in his heart.
He walked back and forth, then nodded to a few people in the crowd.
Wu Ye first went to a hidden corner, summoned Tian Qing, and put on a set of white Taoist robes, which he asked his grandfather Wu Yong to knit.
Then he put on a white mask he bought from Ashanpo, and then took out a bamboo tube, cardboard, and a handful of bamboo sticks he made.
He sat cross-legged directly at the door of the canteen, dipped his fingers in saliva and drew a Tai Chi diagram on the ground. Then he put down the bamboo tube, stood up the cardboard, and officially started setting up the stall.
The cardboard reads: This Taoist priest is a descendant of the Immortal Family of Jue Yunding. He specializes in drawing lots to resolve fortunes or solve disasters, and he is guaranteed to be lucky! Ten thousand molas per time, no two prices!
In this busy area, Wu Ye's unusual behavior instantly attracted some people.
"What the hell! You also said that you are a descendant of the Immortal family, who specializes in cheating, right?"
"Indeed, look at him wearing strange clothes and a mask. He is probably here to fool people."
"Thousands of molas per time is too expensive. It's almost half a day's wages for me. Whoever believes it is a fool!"
Everyone was questioning, but Wu Ye looked calm and kept a smile on his face.
Someone asked: "Hey, how about you make it cheaper, one hundred molas per time, maybe I can patronize your business."
Wu Ye smiled silently and shook his head.
Another person advised: "Brother, no matter you are really a descendant of the Xian family or you are pretending to be a ghost, your price is too high. We are all poor and there is no money. How about you go to Yujingtai to set up a stall? Come on, people over there are rich and stupid.”
Wu Ye shook his head again and made up his mind to set up a stall here.
When everyone saw this scene, they decided to stay for a while to see if anyone had been fooled.
The people around saw a group of people gathered there, thought something was going on, and walked over excitedly.
As a result, Wu Ye's small stall was surrounded by people.
The time has come.
"Um, is it really guaranteed to be accurate? I want to try it."
A thin worker shouted in the crowd, and everyone immediately made way for him and began to look at the man.
"Who is this? He dares to try it even if it's 10,000 molars. Either he's crazy or he's a dog."
"Indeed, there are a lot of shills setting up stalls these days."
"Well, don't worry, let's take a look and then talk."
......
"Little Taoist Priest, are you really sure of the truth?"
Wu Ye looked serious: "Of course! I'm not allowed to take away your money. Do you plan to draw lots to solve the problem or let me help you solve the problem?"
"I want to draw lots to unravel the lot."
"Okay, but you have to pay first."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone sneered even more, believing that Wu Ye was just a scammer.
Wu Ye stretched out his hand, and the thin worker took out the money bag from his arms, carefully counted ten thousand molars and put it in Wu Ye's hand.
Wu Ye handed the bamboo tube over: "Sir, shake it yourself. Whichever wooden sign comes out first, I will unwrap it for you."
"Okay!" The thin worker immediately shook the bamboo tube.
pat!
The crisp sound of the bamboo stick being thrown to the ground sounded. Wu Ye picked up the bamboo stick and looked at the content on the bamboo stick. Then his face became solemn and he no longer smiled.
Noticing the change in Wu Ye's expression, the thin worker asked anxiously: "Taoist Master, what kind of sign is this?!"
"——Great evil——"
The thin worker's eyes suddenly twitched: "What a disaster?!"
Wu Ye said slowly: "According to the method of interpretation I learned from the mountains, the hexagram shown in this lot has changed from the Zhen hexagram to the Sunda hexagram."
"The Zhen hexagram represents thunder, and the Xun hexagram represents wind. This hexagram represents thunder and wind, indicating the occurrence of storms, tornadoes, or thunder and lightning."
"And my guest, you should usually work on the dock, which means that you will encounter a big disaster at the port in the near future."
The thin worker looked panicked, then reached out and grabbed Wu Ye's arm tightly.
"Taoist Priest, what's the explanation?!"
Wu Ye smiled faintly: "Don't be too nervous. Anything that happens in the future can be changed now. Let me figure it out."
Then, under the gaze of everyone, Wu Ye closed his eyes, pinched his fingers with his right hand, and mumbled something in his mouth.
Then, he waved his left hand, and a white zhenqi cultivated from the Xian family's secret method appeared and fell on the Tai Chi Bagua diagram in front of him.
For a time, visions arose all over the place, and the spirit of immortality was flying.
When everyone saw this phenomenon, they immediately opened their mouths.
"Wow! This guy can't really be a descendant of the Xian family, right? It feels like he has two brushes!"
"Immortal! I also want to draw lots to unravel the lot. No! I want to worship you as my teacher!"
"My son broke his leg a few days ago, sage, can you help me?"
……
A calm audience poured cold water on the excited crowd: "Let's take a look, maybe he used some inconspicuous means to deceive people."
"Hello, sir." Wu Ye opened his eyes and looked at the thin worker, "You only need to stay away from the dock in three days, because I estimate that a huge storm will sweep through the port by then."
"Okay...but the day after tomorrow is the "Invitation to the Immortal Ceremony". Quan Liyue has a day off, and then another day without working at the dock. Then won't I lose two days of earning?"
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Wu Ye looked serious: "If Mora is gone, you can still find opportunities to make more money. Your life is yours. You only have one. You can measure it yourself."
Wu Ye waved his hands and chased the people away, and the thin worker smiled and left.
Wu Ye put on his smile again and looked around.
"Who else is coming? Let's talk about it first. I have my own rules on Xiaodao. I only do business three times a day. I can't exceed it. Now there are only two left!"
