None of the businessmen expected that they would introduce Zhang Fengnian, a big customer, to Chong Yunzi with good intentions.
As a result, before he even opened his mouth, Chong Yunzi's first words turned out to be that they shouldn't come.
This is basically a hot face against a cold butt.
Even these shameless businessmen look a little ugly.
Ma Fu smiled awkwardly and said: "Taoist Master, why shouldn't we come?"
Chong Yunzi once again announced the Taoist slogan, slowly shook his head and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, Pindao is not saying that you should not come, but that you should not come today."
While talking about the hand-kneading technique, he kept mumbling something, as if he was calculating.
Soon, the calculation was completed. Cong Yunzi sighed helplessly and said: "That's all, this may be the doomed fate of the channel."
After saying that, Zhong Yunzi shook the fly whisk and made a gesture of invitation with a smile: "All donors, please come with me."
Chong Yunzi led everyone into the room. After everyone sat down, his young apprentice served tea to everyone.
After that, Chong Yunzi didn't care about anyone else and directly focused his attention on Zhang Fengnian.
"If Pindao guessed correctly, the purpose of all the donors coming today should be for you."
Zhang Fengnian smiled and nodded: "Taoist Master is indeed an expert. You already know my purpose before we even open our mouths."
He did not hide it, but said very simply: "These friends told me, Taoist Master, you are an extraordinary master. You have known for five hundred years before and five hundred years after."
"I strongly recommend you, Taoist Priest, to me, so I came here to meet you, Taoist Priest."
However, Chong Yunzi waved his hand modestly: "This is a show of love from all the donors. Channel is just an ordinary wandering Taoist priest."
He said with a self-deprecating smile: "You don't even have an ultimatum, so strictly speaking you can't be considered a true Taoist priest."
This actually surprised Zhang Fengnian. Every move made by Chong Yunzi was the same as the Taoist priests he had seen before.
But I didn't expect that this person didn't even have an ultimatum.
This thing is a very important thing for monks and Taoists.
Monks and Taoists who do not have Dudu certificates are just like the people of the Ming Dynasty who do not have household registration.
You can't even prove that you are a citizen of the Ming Dynasty. As long as you are caught on the street, even if you are killed on the spot, there is no place to complain.
The interest in Taoist Chongyunzi that had just aroused in my heart suddenly dissipated without a trace.
Of course, Zhang Fengnian would not show any abnormality on the surface. Instead, he smiled and comforted Chong Yunzi and said: "What a practitioner values is the heart. As for those things outside the body, even if they are not present, they will not affect the Taoist priest's cultivation."
, isn’t it?”
"Hahaha!" Chong Yunzi laughed heartily: "The donor is a wonderful person. In the past, after some people learned that the channel did not give ultimatums, they either walked away or angrily scolded the poor people."
"Just like the donor, the donor is the first to comfort the channel."
"I understand the benefactor's kindness. When I was young, I really cared about it, but now, I have already looked away from these things."
"Whether or not there is the ultimatum, it will not delay the poor Taoist's practice."
What these words say is a bit like the Taoist conception of inaction.
Zhang Fengnian began to feel again that this person's realm seemed really good.
However, it was still because of the suspicion just now that Zhang Fengnian no longer trusted Taoist Chongyunzi as much as before.
After chatting for a while, Chong Yunzi asked Zhang Fengnian: "Boss Zhang came here this time, I don't know if he wants to tell fortunes or write fortune-telling, or to ward off evil spirits and catch ghosts."
Zhang Fengnian did not answer Chong Yunzi's question immediately. Instead, he pretended to smile casually and said: "Taoist priest is a scholar of heaven and man, can't you guess the purpose of my visit this time?"
It was obvious that he was deliberately testing Chong Yunzi, and he did not hide his thoughts of testing at all.
The expressions of Ma Fu and the merchants who brought Zhang Fengnian over all changed.
They even regretted meeting Chong Yunzi in Zhang Fengnian.
If this angered Chong Yunzi, they would be implicated.
What if Chong Yunzi takes a grudge against him and cannot come to Chong Yunzi to help him in the future? Wouldn’t that be a small gain but a big loss?
They wanted to dissuade Zhang Fengnian, but now that Zhang Feng had spoken out, what else could they do?
If they were stopped at this time, wouldn't it mean that they didn't trust Taoist Chongyunzi?
Chong Yunzi laughed, not looking angry at all.
"Well, since the donor doesn't believe in Pindao, the channel can only show off a little bit."
what's going on?
Ma Fu and the others were all confused. Why did they feel that Taoist Chong Yunzi's attitude seemed to be a little different when facing Zhang Fengnian?
They were almost certain that if they had asked these questions themselves, they would have been kicked out by Chong Yunzi, and they might not even see them again in the future.
However, Chong Yunzi was not angry at Zhang Fengnian's doubts. Instead, he wanted to prove himself to the other party.
Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away things.
"Humph, damn rich people." Several businessmen mocked bitterly in their hearts.
They seem to have completely forgotten that they are also among the rich in the eyes of many people.
It's just that their money is completely incomparable to Zhang Fengnian's.
"The Taoist priest is joking, but I have never doubted the Taoist priest's intentions."
He said this, but Zhang Fengnian made no move to stop him at all.
Chong Yunzi didn't say anything, he just stared at Zhang Fengnian carefully for a few times.
Then he sighed: "The donor's destiny is really..."
"If the channel is correct, Boss Zhang has both parents, and his family has been well off since he was a child."
Just one sentence summed up the first half of Zhang Fengning's life.
Although it was a bit unexpected, Zhang Fengnian was not too surprised.
After all, even if it’s something done in the past, it can’t be considered a skill.
After all, if you want to investigate a lot of information, you can eventually find it out.
Especially for people like him, it would be easier to check some information that is not so important.
"As expected, the Taoist priest has a keen eye. I have indeed never had a hard time since I was a child."
Zhang Fengnian didn't care whether Chong Yunzi was trying to trick him or not, he wouldn't reveal any useful information to him anyway.
Chong Yunzi had a strange smile in his eyes: "It's just that although Boss Zhang's family is not poor, it is not a wealthy family."
"I see that there is a beauty of poetry and literature hidden in your beauty. You must have read books in your early years, right?"
Zhang Fengnian nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor denying.
This is not something difficult to guess. These days, as long as the family has the conditions, studying is inevitable, isn't it?
If he couldn't even guess this little thing, Zhang Fengnian would be disappointed.
But then, Chong Yunzi's words made him change his face.
I saw Chong Yunzi shaking his head slightly and sighing: "It's a pity, it's a pity. If, Boss Zhang, you can continue to study, although you won't be able to achieve any particularly dazzling achievements, you can still pass the imperial examination and serve as an official to benefit the people."
"It's just that the donor had to take over the family business due to family changes, and ended up delaying his studies."
"You simply gave up the idea of studying and started running your family business wholeheartedly."
"It's just that although you have been working hard, the business at home has been tepid. For this reason, Boss Zhang is worried a lot."
Ma Fu and others did not see the dramatic change in Zhang Fengnian's face when they heard what Chong Yunzi said.
The few people were all mingling with each other, as if a torch was lit under their buttocks, and they were sitting there twisting and turning.
In their opinion, Chong Yunzi's judgment this time was really too wrong.
They would not doubt Chong Yunzi because of this. After all, the people who could come here had been helped by Chong Yunzi to some extent in the past.
It’s just that they all know that there is no absolute accuracy in fortune telling.
In the past, when he was telling people's fortunes, Chong Yunzi was not without his mistakes.
It's just that the person they brought this time was really special. Zhang Fengnian had the authority to sell official grain in his hands.
They originally hoped to use this opportunity to sell Zhang Fengnian a good one.
In this way, they might also be able to participate in the business of selling grain.
In Datong Prefecture now, the most profitable business is undoubtedly the food seller.
As long as the grain can be transported to Datong Prefecture, the price can be doubled several times, and it is almost a guaranteed profit-making business.
Unfortunately, apart from the ten grain merchants designated by Zhu Han, only the local grain merchants in Datong Prefecture can sell grain.
If other merchants want to participate at this time, the only way is to sell grain to the ten grain merchants designated by Zhu Han, or to the original local grain merchants.
But no matter who it is sold to, the price will definitely be higher.
A businessman...
When making money, you have to worry about making even an extra penny. If you can skip the intermediate link and directly sell the grain yourself, wouldn't you be able to make a lot more money?
But now it seems that their wishful thinking is about to come true.
You said this is true for Chong Yunzi. When is it bad to make a mistake? Why did you make a mistake today?
In the past, when I gave them fortune-telling and fortune-telling, it was always accurate.
As a result, today they recommended such an important person to come over, but this guy just missed it.
"The Taoist priest really has a sharp eye." After the initial shock, Zhang Fengnian smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Some things can indeed be investigated, but there are some things that Zhang Fengnian does not believe can be found out.
For example, he is actually not particularly good at business.
Chong Yunzi was right. Zhang Fengnian had indeed studied before, and had plans to take the imperial examination and become an official.
But later, because his father fell ill, he couldn't take care of the family business.
Zhang Fengnian had no choice but to take over the family business for his father.
After all, he is the only male in the family, so he can't let his mother do business, right?
And he is not a particularly talented person, unable to do one thing while taking care of another.
While taking care of the family business, Zhang Fengnian's studies were soon affected.
Not to mention taking the imperial examination, even normal studies can no longer keep up.
Moreover, his father's health has never been better, and Zhang Fengnian has been unable to escape.
He knew that if he continued like this, not only would his studies be delayed, but the business he was in charge of would also be in trouble.
After careful consideration, Zhang Fengnian gave up the idea of continuing to take the imperial examination.
Concentrate on helping the family take care of business.
He even had a big fight with his father over this matter.
Because his father's biggest wish in his life was that he could study and become an official.
Zhang Fengnian is a very realistic person. Why doesn't he know the benefits of studying and becoming an official?
But based on the situation of the family at that time, if he did not come out to manage the family business, it would not be long before the family business would completely collapse.
Studying is quite expensive. If the family has no money, their studies will still be affected.
Moreover, taking the imperial examination is not an easy thing. With luck, he may pass high school in one or two times, and then there will be room for saving the family business.
But what if he keeps failing the exam?
If you take the exam for ten or eight years, if you add one more, you will be completely finished.
Rather than doing this, it is better to specialize in business.
Although he is not particularly good at business, his vision is not too bad due to the influence of his father.
No matter what, the family business can be maintained, at least the parents will not go hungry together.
And there are very few people who really know these things.
It can be said that almost only two people, he and his father, know about it.
Even if others know these things, it is impossible for them to know the thoughts and concerns in his heart at that time.
So was all this really calculated by Chong Yunzi?
Unable to help himself, Zhang Fengnian's thoughts had begun to be fooled by Chen Xueying.
He quickly stood up and bowed to Chongyunzi respectfully: "Please give me some guidance from the Taoist priest."
This scene once again made Ma Fu and others extremely confused.
What happened?
It's obvious that what Chong Yunzi said is wrong, why? Boss Zhang reacted like this?
They knew that Boss Zhang from Yanjing was extremely wealthy.
His wealth is beyond what they can even imagine.
It is said that such people are not good at doing business.
What the hell is the difference between this and Zhao Gao showing the way?
And Boss Zhang, what Chong Yunzi said is obviously so outrageous, why do you still act like he is right?
Chong Yunzi said with a smile: "Boss Zhang, although your business skills are only average, your greatest advantage is your vision."
"And not long ago, three noble people appeared in your life, one big and two small."
"Those two young nobles among them are here specifically to assist you."
"And that big nobleman made you soar to the sky. In just a few months, you earned such a huge family fortune because of him. Is Pindao right?"
Now all Zhang Fengnian could do was to nod his head: "The Taoist priest is right, it is indeed the case."
Zhang Fengnian now really believes that this Taoist priest Chong Yunzi is a master of calculations.
What he said is absolutely the same as his current situation.
