Joy of Life: I'm really not a saint

In addition to some fortune-giving masters, there are also many strange people among them.

"Master! I want to calculate my marriage!" a "plump" lady asked eagerly.

Li An looked at the "giant" that was beyond his comprehension and said, "I see that you are quite old, in good health, and have a lot of ideas in your mind."

The young lady said with a look of surprise: "Master, according to what you said, I will definitely be able to find my ideal husband?"

Li An sighed: "What is love in this world? It makes people stay together for life and death!"

"What do you mean? That sounds pretty nice!" After saying that, the young lady covered her chest and said happily.

"That is to say, let you give up this idea!" Li An's face was full of black lines: "One hundred taels, put it in that box!"

"Next person!"

Li An shouted towards the door, and the "giant" then left crying.

A wealthy businessman walked in tremblingly, sat on a chair, and said, "Master, I want to ask how long I will live?"

Li An gestured to his hand and said, "Put your hand out and turn your palm over. I'll see how your palm looks like."

The rich businessman cooperated by stretching out his hand. Not knowing which one the master wanted to look at, he simply stretched out both.

Li An looked at the rich businessman's left hand and said, "The lifeline in your palm is almost worn out. Go home and wait for death!"

"The cash box is on the left. One hundred taels for Chenghui. Next one!" After saying that, he shouted to the outside world.

The rich businessman was shocked when he heard this and fainted on the ground. Seeing this, the housekeeper behind him hurried forward, handed over the fortune-telling fee, called the servants to come, carried his master and left.

It is said that the rich businessman passed away the next day. Some people say that he left because he had lost the spirit in his heart!

But this further solidified Li An's reputation as a fortune teller, and the number of people coming to his door increased instead of decreasing! Many people came to take numbers and line up, wanting to see Li An in person and ask for a fortune for themselves!

"Master, I would like to calculate when I can get rich?" asked a wealthy man.

Li An asked the man in return, "How rich do you want to be?"

"Of course the more the better!"

Ang Lee was speechless. I don’t know how to do this question. It’s beyond the syllabus!

I am really exhausted. So many people come here every day, spending 100 taels of silver, asking for a business that can earn 10,000 taels. What? If I have the ability, I won’t make money myself, right? Am I too rich, or am I not breaking the law?

"The methods are all written in the Criminal Law!" Li An replied unhappily.

"what?"

Li An still calculated with his hands. It wouldn't delay anything anyway. After a few seconds, he said, "In two years, you will have a chance to choose. If you choose the opposite option from your usual choice, you will get rich!"

Then he told the man to pay the money and leave.

Li An sighed. It was getting harder and harder to deal with the people behind him! Tomorrow, change the paper at the door that says "100 taels per person" to "1,000 taels per person"! I just don't believe it!

The days passed in this ordinary way. Is this how to make money? It is indeed plain and boring!

Of course, in addition to making money, this 'Wanshizhai' is also very lively at night.

If someone calculates the money Li Ang has earned in recent days, they will exclaim in shock: this is too exaggerated!

Therefore, there would be many more thieves here at night, except for Li An who eliminated several waves of people who wanted to make quick money. The most bizarre thing was that after several groups of people met outside the courtyard, they were worried that others would get ahead of them, so they fought each other. The scene was just a mess.

More and more people joined in, which alarmed the governor of Kyoto, so he had to find a few officers to patrol outside the courtyard at night.

Look, there are still a few unlucky policemen outside feeding mosquitoes!

"It seems that recruiting people should be put on the agenda as soon as possible!"

Li An yawned, went back to sleep, and no longer cared about the trivial matters outside.

While Li An was living his own money-making life, Fan Xian became famous in Kyoto.

It turned out that Fan Xian went to Prince Jing's poetry gathering that day, and after he wrote a famous work of Du Fu, "Climbing the High Tower", he became famous, and his literary reputation was unparalleled at the time!

Of course, it would have been better if he had not written another poem "Ode to Willow" by He Zhizhang and said it was written by Ang Lee!

Chapter 33 Little Follower.

Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

When Li An heard in the courtyard that Mei Zhili, the governor of Kyoto, was killed by horse thieves on his way back home after resigning from office, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, realizing that he would have to be busy during this period of time.

Speaking of this Mei Zhili, he is also a fool. His name of 'unintelligent' is really right!

As the saying goes, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger, let alone in this important place of Kyoto, under the nose of Emperor Qing!

You know, the emperor values ​​the imperial power in his hands the most! And Emperor Qing is even more paranoid. For this reason, he doesn't trust anyone. What did Mei Zhili do? He surrendered to the prince, was bribed by the prince, and became the knife used by the prince to deal with Fan Xian!

When he met Emperor Qing, he himself said that the post of prefect was of utmost importance in the capital, and it had always been held by members of the royal family or princes. The reason why he was able to take the position was because Emperor Qing had rejected all objections. He was supposed to be loyal to Emperor Qing, but he ended up joining the team in advance.

This is why there was a scene in the palace where Emperor Qing asked Mei Zhili whether he had seen that his "death was approaching".

"This 'unintelligent' man deserves to die. After this, Fujiko Kyo and Fan Xian will face disaster. We should prepare early!"

Thinking of this, Li An shouted to the man in the courtyard outside the house: "Don't rush to practice, go and close the gate! Don't forget to change the paper at the door. Write that you will not see any outsiders in the next few days. You will be notified when it is time to start a new hexagram!"

"Yes, teacher!" the young man replied, stopped what he was doing, turned around and ran to complete the task assigned by Li Ang, then returned to the yard and began to practice tirelessly.

Li An shook his head and didn't correct his address. He asked softly, "Where's Tong'er? It's getting late now. Tell her to cook. I'm starving."

The young man continued to move after hearing that. He kicked out with one foot, but replied, "My junior sister is doing it. Please wait a moment, teacher. We will be able to eat soon." While he was speaking, he had already kicked out several times, but his breathing was not disordered at all.

Only then did Li An nod with satisfaction and think of the things about these little followers.

Time goes back to nearly a month ago. At that time, Li An was strolling in the city with an umbrella, thinking of buying some daily necessities to take back, so he walked among the crowd with his sword case on his back.

Suddenly, I was bumped by a boy of about eleven or twelve years old who was coming towards me, and I felt a strange feeling in my waist.

He immediately realized that the "money bag" hanging around his waist had been stolen, but he did not react immediately. He looked at the boy walking through the crowd, felt the rain gradually subsided, put away his umbrella, and quietly followed him.

After going around in circles, I saw the young man run to a stall, take out money from his purse, and buy a whole basket of meat buns and steamed buns. Then he turned around and walked back with satisfaction.

You know, in that era, a basket was really big. It could hold a lot of meat buns and steamed buns, so the child had a hard time carrying it.

He gritted his teeth, put the packed food on his back, and walked back to his residence.

This is a shantytown, a village in the city, a slum. The people here are a mixed crowd, with many people from all walks of life, and the flow of people is huge and frequent.

Even though this place is located in Kyoto, there are still such gray areas. This is the law and need of the times.

It takes half of the city to get here from where Li An stole his money. The boy also insisted on bringing food back and walked into a shed.

Seeing this, Li An quickly followed and listened to the conversation inside by sticking close to the shed.

"Come over and have dinner, guys. This time, I brought some big meat buns. There's one for everyone!"

I only heard the boy who had just stolen the money speak.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rustling noise, and the other children gathered around.

"Brother, thank you for your hard work!"

"Thank you, brother. I want to grow up quickly and go out to make money like you!"

"Me too, me too!"

"Brother is not injured!"

The young man listened to his brother and sister's words and smiled heartily: "Don't worry, brother won't get hurt! The fat sheep on the street today was very stupid and succeeded in one go! But, son, you can't learn to be like your brother in the future, you have to go to school."

"No, I heard that studying costs a lot of money. I'd rather spend the money on eating more delicious food!"

"You don't even listen to your brother?" the young man said angrily.

Then there was a period of silence, except for the sound of children chewing their food.

Life at the foot of the imperial city was also difficult. Just as Li An was about to leave, he heard the sound of an iron basin falling to the ground in front of the shed, splashing the mud and water in the pit.

Then there was the sound of the tarpaulin being pulled up.

"Haha, I saw you carrying a big cloth bag back from a distance. It seems like you had a good harvest today!" A rough middle-aged man's voice sounded.

Li An listened carefully to the footsteps and saw three people entering the studio.

"Boss He, have you eaten? Here are two of the meat buns I just brought back. Would you like two?" The young man blocked a group of children behind him and handed the bag of food forward.

The middle-aged man laughed strangely and slapped the young man in the face: "Are you pretending to be confused? Did you take it back or buy it?"

"Hey, where did I get the money to buy it? I took it back, I took it back." The boy explained, and the package in his hand fell to the ground.

"Whether it's to take or to buy, I'll know after I touch it! Search!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two hooligans behind the middle-aged man walked towards the young man, one held his hands, and the other began to fumble.

The young man struggled hard, shouting, "Boss He! Boss He! Didn't I pay this month's mortgage? What do you mean by this?"

A group of children also gathered around him, pulling and shouting, "Let go of brother, let go of brother!" But they were too young and had no strength to pull.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, which made the two people who were searching the children very angry. They threw several children out with force.

"Niuniu, A'zi! Boss He, don't do it, the thing is on me, I'll take it out!" The boy saw his brother and sister being thrown out and a corner fell off, and he quickly told the truth: "Don't hurt anyone, I have money, I have money, just please don't hurt them again!"

The middle-aged man smiled coldly: "Wouldn't it have been over earlier? The monthly payment is just the rent for this shed. I will take a cut from every sale from now on. This time I will take it all. I will consider it as your interest in advance. It will also be a lesson for you!"

A scoundrel took out a purse and said, "Hey, boss, this purse is quite heavy!" Then he threw the purse to the leader.

"That's right!" Boss He weighed the weight and heard the sound. He knew that there was mostly silver inside. He thought to himself that he was lucky today: "Let's go to have a drink later. I'll treat you, Boss!" After saying that, he changed the subject: "But you still have to teach me a lesson. This is what happens when you cheat me!"

The two younger brothers were overjoyed upon hearing this and prepared to take action.

Li An sighed, "Is it my turn to appear?" He shook his head and used his fingers like swords to cut open the tent cloth.

Suddenly, the small space was shattered and exposed to the drizzle.

"Who?" Boss He asked in shock. The other two stopped what they were doing and stood still.

Li An laughed at the silent boy and said, "Am I not the stupid fat sheep you mentioned?"

At this time, the young man raised his head and became secretly anxious.

The children behind him also gathered behind the boy, secretly looking at Li Ang with uneasy expressions.

Can you guys who collect it stop fattening it up and killing it? You will lose me. (っ'-')╮=

Chapter 34 The whole story.

"Oh, is this the victim? Sir, I have to remind you that if you don't take good care of your things and enter this slum, they will no longer belong to you. You can only blame yourself for your bad luck!"

Boss He smiled and said, spreading his hands and talking about the rules. The other two also had bad intentions and stared at Li An with amusement in their eyes.

"Oh? Why doesn't it belong to me?" Li An was also curious and said with a smile: "Do I need your consent to take back my own things?"

Boss He's smile faded, and he snorted coldly, "Of course I need my consent. Everything that enters this land belongs to me, whether it's money or people!"

After he finished speaking, the two people behind him had already separated and walked to both sides of Li An, and the three of them surrounded Li An.

Li An had good eyesight and noticed that the two people on his left and right had already taken out weapons behind their right hands.

"You are quite courageous. I don't want to know who is backing you up to be so confident. I just want to ask you one question: will you give me the thing in your hand or not?"

Li An's plain question made Boss He laugh. He waved his hands and shouted angrily, "Come on!" He secretly decided to break your legs later. Isn't this another good candidate for begging?

The two people beside him drew their weapons, a dagger and a sickle, and swung them towards Li Ang.

Seeing the murderous intent in Boss He's eyes, Li An slapped the sword case on his back.

Stupid!

Three sword lights flashed, and Li Anren had already arrived in front of Boss He, holding his purse in his hand.

As for He Lao Da and the other two, their faces were filled with fear, their lips trembling, and they wanted to speak, but they could no longer speak. They trembled for a moment, then their bodies softened and they fell to the ground, gradually becoming silent.

Beneath the three people, blood mixed with the puddles on the ground and gradually spread, staining the ground red.

The young man was so frightened by the scene that he broke out in a cold sweat, and his back felt wet.

He didn't see any movement of the person in front of him, he only saw a flash of white light in his eyes, and then He Lao Da and the other two fell to the ground dead. Looking carefully at the bodies of the three people on the ground, the boy couldn't see any marks, but he knew that the blood on the ground was not fake.

"What kind of horrible monster have I provoked?" At this moment, the boy felt like the sky was falling.

Looking at the stunned boy, Li An threw his purse over to him and said, "This money is considered as compensation for your shed."

Then he turned to the shadow on the left and shouted, "My name is Li An, I live in Wanshizhai in the west of the city. Go back and tell your boss that if you are dissatisfied with anything, you are welcome to come and trouble me."

Li An took a few steps forward, as if he had thought of something, and quickly added: "It's best to bring silver notes when you go looking for trouble."
