Victor made a dull groan under his breath, held his hands behind his back and kneaded, and soon got the result.
But he did not answer immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes slightly and muttered something.
Although he didn't know what he was thinking, he just wanted to use this way of pretending to be a ghost to deceive these indigenous people in a foreign land.
"Alright..." Victor raised his hand and pointed towards the street, "The thing I'm looking for is in the east, please do it quickly!"
After he finished speaking, his own expression was slightly startled, because the direction of the fortune was exactly the same as that of the little girl just now.
"What are you talking about?" The female customer couldn't understand Victor's words and was slightly at a loss.
"That's right, ma'am, you should go over there to look for the lost items."
Following the direction of Victor's finger, the female customer saw people coming and going under the street lights, and of course the little girl selling charcoal.
At this time, there happened to be a man talking to the little girl there. It looked like he was blocked by the girl and was scolding her to get out of the way.
However, when the female customer spotted the man, she was stunned.
"Stor!?"
She yelled loudly, immediately startling the man opposite her.
When the man realized that he had been spotted by a female customer, his face looked as if he had seen a ghost, and he turned around and ran away.
"Stor! Stoll! Come back! You bastard!"
The female customer didn't even pay for the divination and ran straight after the man.
Victor froze in his seat, tapping his fingers on the table idly.
The next moment, he seemed to get a message from somewhere, and his secret transmission research progress accelerated!
The little girl across the road was in the same situation as Victor and was at a loss. She suddenly discovered that the man had dropped a black box on the ground in a hurry.
The girl knelt down, picked it up, opened it, and was instantly stunned by what was inside.
"What did you pick up?"
Victor suddenly appeared behind the little girl like a ghost. The girl screamed and immediately hid the box behind her.
"You...you are not allowed to come here! You are a bad guy!"
In fact, when the little girl opened the box just now, Victor had already seen it from behind, and he roughly guessed what was inside.
"This is your good luck today...right?"
"You..." The little girl was so frightened by Victor that she trembled. She thought that Victor wanted to snatch the box. "Don't try to do anything bad! I... I want to wait for the gentleman to come back and return it to him!"
After hearing this, Victor stood there with a smile.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the previous female customer seeking fortune telling came back and brought a group of police officers.
They found the little girl and asked her if she had picked up anything.
The little girl glanced at the policeman and took out the box hesitantly.
"Oh! Thank God!" The female customer happily grabbed the box and took out the gold-plated gemstone bracelet inside.
"That's great! Your divination is so perfect. Thank you sir! I will pay you!" The female customer quickly thanked Victor.
Victor curiously asked her what was going on.
It turned out that the man was her recently divorced husband, and the bracelet was taken away by him. There was no strange thief.
"I'll pay you right away. Do you need a check or cash?" the female customer asked Victor.
The latter shook his head and said to her: "This little girl picked up your things, you should thank her!"
Upon hearing this, the female customer looked at the charcoal seller with some disgust, and replied coldly: "Okay! I will give you 50 farka. I hope your basket can hold so much money." p>
"No, no, no..." Victor suddenly waved his hand, "Madam, you obviously didn't tell me the truth. The value of this bracelet is definitely more than a thousand faraka, and it was left behind by your ex-husband. He was not present. Who knows?
Who does the bracelet belong to? The police officers won’t believe your words, right?"
What the female customer said to Victor before the divination was not completely credible. The man also accidentally left something behind. No one knows what the truth is? Maybe it is just a simple divorce and property dispute?
Besides, Victor is not blind. What is worth 100 francs? If this chain is sold in a pawn shop for 2,000 or 3,000 francs, people will probably be rushing for it. His estimate of 1,000 francs is still a conservative price.
The woman realized that the policeman beside her began to doubt her, so she hurriedly defended: "Wait a minute, I didn't lie to you. You can just ask Stoll yourself when you catch him..."
She said, then looked at Victor and the little girl, and finally gritted her teeth: "Okay! I did lie to you about the value of the bracelet. Otherwise, in order to thank this child, I am willing to pay her
Remuneration of 200 francs."
Hearing this, Victor took off his bowler hat and bowed his head slightly in greeting: "All good luck will favor generous and kind people."
From 50 Faka to 200 Faka, the little girl was so frightened that she felt dizzy and had stars in her eyes.
She has never seen so much money in her life.
Although the female customer felt that she was being squeezed by Victor, she was a little annoyed, but fortunately the other person said good words and blessings, and the things were found for her, so her mood gradually improved, and she finally signed a check for the girl.
After this little incident, the little girl said to Victor blankly: "Sir... you turned out to be a good person..."
"Haha..." Victor laughed dryly, and finally put away his things and called a carriage to take the little girl home.
A check is easy to hide, so Victor asked her not to tell anyone else that she had this thing, and only go back to discuss with her mother how to use it.
It can be seen from the little girl's neat clothes that although the other person's family is poor, her mother must still be very kind to her and will not let the child get dirty all day long.
Today’s gain is not only helping two strangers, but also accelerating the progress of esoteric transmission studies.
This directly proves that imitating fortune tellers and setting up stalls on the roadside is effective!
Next, Victor just needs to continue and do more of this part-time job while he has time.
As he said himself, good luck always favors generous and kind-hearted people. The unexpected joy came very quickly. Starting from the next day, more customers came to his booth for consultation.
These people come from different classes, including rich and poor. The guests at the bottom have little money, but Victor does not embarrass them. He simply collects a few cents and then calculates their fortunes for the day.
Of course, it is rare for a little girl to have such good luck. Just asking Victor to predict fortunes does not mean that everyone will be rich and earn hundreds of francs a day.
The slightly wealthier customers must have heard the news from the previous female customers and were driven by curiosity to come for consultation.
The wishes they seek are very different from those of the lower-class customers. Most of them are about catching mistresses, fighting for family property, lovers' preferences, a good day to get married, etc.
Although the results obtained by each person are different, the accuracy of Victor's fortune-telling is unmatched by the fortune-telling club across the street.
That day he performed fortune telling for at least 20 people, and more people came on the third day. Victor received at least more than 100 customers who came for consultation.
Joseph used his fortune-telling secret message to make a lot of money by receiving familiar wealthy people alone. Victor, on the other hand, refused to accept anyone who came, and the number of inquiries increased exponentially in the past two days.
He instantly realized that his study progress had passed the threshold, and his body did not show any discomfort.
Sure enough, the coyote statue is protecting me!
Victor was overjoyed and decided to go all out and spend another two days to complete the study progress.
However, good business will always arouse the jealousy of others.
There was a big traffic problem on that road. Maybe it was reported by people in the divination club, or maybe it was reported by other shops. People from the city administration came and they banned Victor from setting up a stall on the roadside.
