Huang Tiandi said: "Virtuous son-in-law, even if you don't have a lawsuit to fight, but your family has land and property, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing, but you are much better than your old father-in-law, and I am almost the last meal here!" ”

Chang Yutang said: "Father-in-law, what did you say, as long as I have a bite to eat, can you still make you hungry, even if I want you to starve, your precious daughter will not do it, she must not scold me!" ”

Chang Yutang has a very good relationship with his wife, although he is also a rich family, but he has never married a concubine, and he has no interest in such things as messing with flowers and grass, so Chang Yutang's attitude towards him, his only father-in-law, is quite good, and basically he will bring things to see his father-in-law every once in a while.

Huang Tiandi said gloomily: "I'm not seventy or eighty, I can't get out of bed, and now I can still work, I don't want to make more money, I have enough to spend, so I don't have to trouble you!"

It's just that there are indeed a lot fewer people writing letters recently, and I can't meet a few letters a day, and now I can only rely on fortune-telling to make a living! ”

Huang Tiandi kept sighing, he was old, and he couldn't do other work, so once the business of the letter stall was not good, the blow to him would be quite serious, and he was old and weak, and he was helpless about it.

Chang Yutang took out a book from his arms, handed it to Huang Tiandi, and said: "Father-in-law, this book is a book that a friend of mine went to Chang'an to do business, and brought it back, this is a hexagram book, it is a fortune teller in Chang'an that is used to do business, it is said that the content in it is quite profound, you don't need to study this book thoroughly, you only need to understand this book for three points, then you will become a generation of gods, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you can't finish your business!" ”

Huang Tiandi was in a mood for a while, he took the book, opened it, flipped through it, and said, "I understand now, what business is the best to do?" In fact, it is a fortune-telling business! It's just that sometimes it's not accurate, and it's quite troublesome to be found by a guest. ”

Chang Yutang said with a smile: "This is a book used by Chang'an peers, specifically to talk about how to make business more troublesome and less troublesome, father-in-law, take a good look at this book, maybe you can also become a generation of hexagram gods!" ”

Huang Tiandi also smiled and said, "How old am I, can I still count on this!" ”

Chang Yutang brought some food over, and the two of them sat down to eat together, and after eating, Chang Yutang saw that it was not early, so he said goodbye to his father-in-law and returned to his home.

Huang Tian lit an oil lamp, and began to look through the hexagram book he got back from Chang'an by the faint light.

This book is indeed about how to tell hexagrams, but it is more about sophistry, although it is quite low-level sophistry, but it also makes Huang Tiandi shocked.

He is a fortune teller, although he doesn't know any sophistry, but he still understands that he should be able to justify himself, because if he doesn't understand this, he will be easily beaten.

But Huang Tiandi never thought that there are books in this world that are dedicated to teaching people how to explain crooked reasoning into righteousness, which is simply too helpful to him, and if he calculates the fortune of others in the future, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort, and the little money must not be put into his pocket in a hurry.

Huang Tiandi read the book all night, and only slept the next morning, did not go out of the stall during the day, and dealt with a bite of food casually, and then continued to read the book, and then studied it for three days, he could be regarded as reading the whole book, and so-so understood some of the skills.

On the fourth day, Chang Yutang brought some food and came over to see Huang Tiandi with his wife, Huang Tiandi's daughter.

As soon as Huang Tiandi's daughter entered the house, she saw her father sitting unkempt on the bed, muttering something in his mouth, not knowing what he was saying.

The daughter thought that her father was sick with a demonic disorder, so she screamed and shouted, "Dad, what's wrong with you? ”

Huang Tiandi came back to his senses and saw that it was his daughter and son-in-law who came, so he said: "This book is very profound, I estimate that if I want to study it thoroughly, it seems that I will be enough in my life, but to set up a stall on the street, the degree of research I have now is absolutely enough." ”

Her daughter picked up the book on the bed, flipped through it, and then said to Chang Yutang angrily: "Isn't this the book you brought, why don't you read it yourself but show it to my father, look at what he looks like now!" ”

Chang Yutang was also taken aback, he hurriedly said: "This book, I specially asked a friend to bring it back from Chang'an, it is about how to tell the hexagram, I don't read much about it, and I don't tell fortunes to others, so I brought this book to my father-in-law, this book was originally brought to him by someone I entrusted it, but I don't know why my father-in-law is so fascinated by it, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing!" ”

Huang Tiandi smiled: "How can this be a bad thing? This is certainly a great thing! I'll freshen up and I'll go out of the stall in the afternoon! ”

Seeing his energetic appearance, Chang Yutang and his wife glanced at each other, but it didn't stop them, the two of them accompanied Huang Tiandi to finish eating, Huang Tiandi went to the stall, and the two of them returned to their homes.

Huang Tiandi tore off the signboard of his letter stall, bought a piece of white cloth from a nearby second-hand clothing store, wrote two big characters "Hexagram God" on the white cloth, and then took this white cloth as a signboard and hung it on the pole, and he sat under these two big characters.

There are a lot of shops on this street, people come and go is quite lively, after all, this is close to the county government, but it is not facing the entrance of the yamen, the location is just right, it is also the center of the city, and the owners of the shops basically know Huang Tiandi.

Huang Tiandi has not had a stall in the past few days, but as soon as he came out of the stall, he played the name of the hexagram god, which immediately caused a sensation.

Many people from the shops came to see the excitement, and some people laughed and said: "I said Huang Tiandi, you have taken the wrong medicine, and you have played this kind of signboard, are you not afraid of miscalculation and being slapped in the mouth?" ”

There was also a guy who had a serious memory and said: "Let me think about it, when was the last time you were smacked, was it the day before yesterday, or the day before yesterday, or the day before yesterday?" ”

The onlookers burst into laughter, of course they all know Huang Tiandi's ability to tell hexagrams, almost every one of them has seen Huang Tiandi come back to find trouble, but it is impossible for them to come to Huang Tiandi to tell hexagrams, they all know that he is making things up.

Now that Huang Tiandi actually calls himself the god of hexagrams, it seems that he is not far from being pumped.

In the face of everyone's ridicule, Huang Tiandi was unmoved, but smiled very mysteriously, sitting behind the desk, looking at the people around him with contempt.

At this moment, the people around him were angry, especially the guys in those shops, they had always thought that Huang Tiandi was a person with a lower status than them, but now that Huang Tiandi had played a sign like the hexagram god, they felt humiliated, because they found that they couldn't compare to Huang Tiandi.

They can't play a sign like a buddy god, can they?

Even if you play such a signboard, you don't necessarily have a lot of face.

A guy was angry, glared at Huang Tiandi, and said: "Okay, didn't you say that you are a hexagram god, then give me a hexagram, you say, how much does it cost?" ”

Huang Tiandi nodded at him and said, "The old man counts hexagrams, and he doesn't take a penny, what do you want to count, let's say it!" ”

The guy was stunned for a moment, what does it mean to not take a penny, don't want money for fortune telling?
