Chapter 71: Pretending to be a Master
As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. Zhang Dadao finally understood what this meant. He was almost hit by a car, and he immediately had the opportunity to cheat someone out of money. The same was true for other people. If it weren't for Zhang Dadao, they would definitely not have escaped this disaster. In comparison, being cheated out of some money was not a big loss.
When Zhang Dadao made the offer, the group of people were stunned for a moment, but they reacted quickly. After seeing Zhang Dadao's ability and being saved by him, this amount of money was not too much to thank him. The manager nodded and said, "Okay, Taoist priest, you have the final say! We will each have a fortune-telling, as long as we can know our recent fortune."
The girl was very quick in calculating the bill. She quickly finished the calculation and nodded, saying, "There are five of us in total. 200 per divination is exactly 1,000. With a 15% discount, it's 850."
Zhang Dadao was a little skeptical when he heard the price. Since that day at Baima Lake, he had been meeting rich people. Even a random talisman could be sold for 8,000 . He only earned less than 1,000 for fortune-telling for five people. Zhang Dadao regretted that the price was too low. He regretted that the price was too low. Others thought it was not worth it! Zeng Liang was very unhappy at this moment. He regretted that he did not come earlier. Within two hours, the price doubled.
Thinking about it carefully, he was full of regret. If he had asked for a fortune telling at Baima Lake, the price would have been only one twentieth of what it is now! Zeng Liang was calculating the bill, completely forgetting that at that time he didn't believe that Zhang Dadao had any ability at all, and he was not even willing to pay ten yuan!
Zhang Dadao took the money and read the fortunes for the five people one by one. It is said that those who survive a great disaster will have good fortune in the future. This statement is true. Although the car crashing into the store just now is not a great disaster, it is still a small disaster. After such a disaster, the luck of the five people in this group is actually quite good. As a professional liar, Zhang Dadao naturally cannot say this. He still gave different statements to the five people. If he said this normally, he would not be able to fool people.
But now these people have calmed down, and they believe that Zhang Dadao is an expert, so they listen very seriously. After Zhang Dadao has predicted the good and bad luck, the five people who have just calmed down said goodbye and left, preparing to go home to calm down.
As soon as the group of people left, Ye Dabing spoke up: "Master, you really never forget to make a fortune wherever you go. You've made nearly a thousand dollars! Counting the 8,000 you cheated me out of this morning, it's almost 10,000 today, right? Your income is pretty good!"
Zhang Dadao was still not surprised when he heard this, but Zeng Liang was shocked. He looked at Ye Hao and said, "8,000? Not bad, Dabing. I've always suspected that you are a second-generation rich kid. It turns out you are really rich! What did you ask this person to do? Can you spend 8,000?"
Ye Dabing asked others to keep it a secret, but he was quick to speak and let some secrets slip. However, he did not deliberately hide the fact that he was rich. Other students knew that he had plenty of money to spend, and Zeng Liang himself was one of the richer students. But even so, Zeng Liang felt that he was not such a spendthrift when he gave 8,000 to a fortune-teller. After hearing what Zeng Liang said, before Ye Dabing could explain, Zhang Dadao said, "Eight thousand is too much? I gave Wang Shanshan's cousin some advice, and I took nearly 100,000 in one go!"
"One hundred thousand? Robbery!" Zeng Liang shouted in disbelief, "I knew Wang Shanshan was rich! No wonder you, Da Bing, are pursuing her so relentlessly. Are you planning to get married? You two are a perfect match!"
Ye Dabing said quickly: "Don't talk nonsense, Shanshan's family is just not short of money at most, and his cousin is a local tycoon, we can't compare."
"Not us!" Zeng Liang took a few steps back and distanced himself from Ye Dabing, shaking his head and saying, "We are different. Spending 8,000, no matter if it's fortune-telling or something else, I can't compare with you."
Zhang Dadao said immediately after hearing this: "It's worth the money! We don't just provide high-end services, we also provide services that are close to the people! In the future, I plan to launch charity services such as sending fortune-telling to the countryside. Why don't you provide services that are close to the people? Fortune-telling is cheap, just two hundred!"
Zeng Liang shook his head repeatedly and said, "Forget it! When I asked you before, it was 100, but it has doubled in a moment. I can't afford it. Forget it! It's all fate anyway." Zeng Liang's tone was light, and he was a very calm person.
Zhang Dadao saw his expression and knew that he was determined not to have his fortune told. He sighed and stopped trying to persuade him. Anyway, Zhang Dadao had made a lot of money today, so he took out his phone and asked Ye Dabing to pay him the money he owed .
Since he came out, Zhang Dadao has gotten almost everything except his ID card with the help of Zheng Wen and others. Now he even has online banking and other things. Even if he is caught and taken back to the Seventh Hospital, with all these messy things and these connections outside, it will be much easier for Zhang Dadao to escape again!
After receiving the 8,000 yuan, Zhang Dadao no longer cared about Zeng Liang, a small customer, and drank tea while looking at the scenery outside the window. Zeng Liang and Ye Dabing chatted and didn't pay any .
They sat down separately, drank a few pots of tea, and time passed slowly. As the sun was setting, Ye Dabing's phone rang. Ye Hao picked it up and said a few words, then hung up and said, "Okay, they're done too! Let's go meet up with them! I have to go back to the wetland after dinner! Shanshan is with her brother, so I'll stay there tonight."
Zhang Dadao naturally had no objection. After they paid the bill and left the teahouse, they reunited with Zheng Wen's group. Both sides talked about what happened in the afternoon, and Zhang Dadao was in the spotlight again. Zheng Wen's group regretted not joining Zhang Dadao and his group and missing out on the excitement. Zheng Wen even took out his phone and started checking the afternoon news. After he confirmed it, his eyes became more and more passionate as he looked at Zhang Dadao.
Although everyone said they wanted Zhang Dadao to tell their fortune, they were just talking. They hadn't seen Zhang Dadao's ability with their own eyes, so they were just joining in the fun and joking. Most of the young people today who really believe in fortune-telling are just casual talk. Unless someone like Ye Dabing has been tortured by Zhang Dadao so much, he believes that he really has some special ability.
After dinner, everyone separated again, and Ye Dabing took Zhang Dadao and Zheng Wen to the car and drove back. When they got in the car, Zhang Dadao relaxed a little and sighed, "Alas, it's really tiring to pretend to be a master for a whole day!"
"Pretend?" Ye Hao was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Haven't you noticed? I rarely talk today! You classmates are so boring. They can't even see that I'm a master who doesn't show his feelings! If I hadn't met those suckers, I would have lost this time!" Zhang Dadao looked unhappy.
Zheng Wen was also stunned, and couldn't help asking: "Who told you that if you don't speak, you are a master?"
"Eh?" Zhang Dadao was stunned for a moment before he said, "Look! Didn't you tell me about the guy in Grave Robbers' Chronicles?"
"That's a novel! My God, you've cheated me a lot today! That's enough!" Zheng Wen shook his head and Ye Hao rolled his eyes.
