People in the village spread rumors among themselves that Taoist priests can tell fortunes very accurately.
These words reached the ears of the old rich man, who was usually well-informed.
Fortune telling, free of charge?!
In the eyes of the old rich man, he is a bastard if he does not take advantage. There is a close relationship between his own fortune and taking advantage.
The old rich man also walked towards the Taoist priest.
"I heard there is no charge for fortune telling?" the old rich man came over with a big belly and asked.
"Official, I only charge women, but men have to charge, especially rich men." The Taoist priest smiled.
What? You were actually seen to be rich? Oh no, people can't leak their wealth or reveal their wealth, otherwise there will be endless troubles.
"I am a poor man, how can I have money?" The old rich man frowned.
"Sir, your heaven is full, your earth's pavilion is square, and your hall is flushed. There is no reason for you to be poor. It's just..." The Taoist priest changed his subject.
"Just what?" the old rich man asked anxiously. If you can get something for free, you have to do it hard.
"It's just that every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite. You are destined to have an heir, but for some reason Guanyin does not come to your house every year..." The Taoist priest frowned, shook his head and sighed.
"What?" The old rich man opened his mouth in shock after hearing this. "What's the reason?"
"The secret of heaven must not be leaked. You all have to say goodbye. I will continue to travel." After speaking, the Taoist priest waved the flag in his hand and turned around to leave.
The stingy old rich man was still stunned.
By the time he came to his senses, the Taoist priest had already walked more than ten meters away. From a distance, the green mountains and green waters looked quite like an immortal.
"Wait, wait." The old rich man suddenly realized something, ran over three steps at a time, and grabbed the Taoist priest.
"Please tell me what is the reason?" The old rich man knew that no matter how much money he had, he would roll his eyes and they would have to be buried with him. Of course, they could not be left to those concubines. Maybe they would recruit a widower again.
If you take your own money, it will be free for others to enjoy.
If there are children, it will be different.
The Taoist priest shook his head and looked like he was leaving.
"You're right. I'll give you money. How about a copper plate?" The old rich man gritted his teeth. It was the first time he spent money on a few words. It felt as if a piece of flesh had been cut from his heart!
"You should keep it for yourself." He smiled disdainfully.
The old rich man didn't want to miss such an opportunity or let such a master go.
"Two, two is enough!" The old rich man gritted his teeth again. This time it was like having two kilograms of flesh cut off from his body! It hurt to the bone! It would be better to actually cut off two kilograms of flesh.
When the Taoist priest stopped, the old rich man was overjoyed and thought he had agreed.
But the Taoist priest stretched out a finger and shook it in front of him.
"What do you mean?" The old rich man didn't understand what he meant.
"For one tael of silver, I will tell you how to solve the problem of childlessness, and I can make Guanyin come to your home every year." The Taoist priest said.
"One, one tael!! Are you crazy, a Taoist priest!" Hearing this astronomical number, the old rich man's eyes almost popped out. He usually speaks loudly, but he didn't expect that others would kill him!
After thinking about it, seeing that he had gone to immortality, the old rich man finally nodded in agreement. The moment he nodded, his soul was gone. One tael of silver, one hundred copper plates, it was enough to hurt everything from his hair to his feet.
I have been in despair for more than half a year...
