Chapter 8 Physiognomy
The plane began to shake violently as if it had malfunctioned in mid-air. At this time, a man's very magnetic voice suddenly came from the cabin, "Hello everyone, I am the captain of this flight." In order to avoid accidental danger during the flight, please stay in your seat and fasten your seat belt, do not move around at will, the toilet is out of use, thank you for your cooperation. ”
After listening to the loudspeaker announcement, I was a little relieved, and then the plane began to gradually become calmer, and it didn't take long for it to slowly descend in altitude, and it seemed that it was not far from the Hong Kong airport.
Looking at the gradually disappearing clouds outside the window, a trace of uneasiness suddenly surged up in my heart, and I couldn't help but start to worry a little. This subtle sign of turmoil, does it indicate that Boss He's matter is not simple, it is estimated that it is not as easy to solve as he imagined, and there may be danger to his life. I couldn't help but make plans in advance, and said in my heart: Anyway, if things are not good, I will find a reason to retreat with oil on the soles of my feet with the fat man, anyway, for a treacherous and cunning villain like Boss He, there is no need to talk to him about morality, in case of a small life, it will be a big loss.
The plane landed safely at the airport, and the private driver of Boss He's family was already waiting at the door and greeted us in the car.
As soon as the fat man got into the car, he gave me a look, and then said to Boss He who was sitting in front: "Boss He, I have long heard that there are many delicacies in Hong Kong, and the restaurants here have original and secret signature dishes, should you treat us first, my stomach is hungry." ”
I immediately helped beside me and said: "The fat man is good, he is full of wine and food to nourish his spirit before he can do things, Boss He, don't you say?" ”
Boss He was driven to the shelves, so he had to nod his head "yes", and then instructed his driver to drive the car to the restaurant first.
Hong Kong's bustling streets, full of bustling traffic crowds, new and beautiful double-decker buses shuttling back and forth, the streets are lined with a large number of comprehensive commercial and residential real estate, very lively and prosperous, especially fashionably dressed modern girls, the streets and alleys can be seen everywhere, I can see that I and the fat man's mouths are wide open, and I can't take my eyes off the random glances.
HSBC Restaurant is one of the best restaurants in Hong Kong, and it is the time to eat Hong Kong's special dim sum from 7 am to 11 am, and then start selling the main meal. The restaurant is very large, upstairs and downstairs, the large hall on the first floor often arranges wedding banquets, so it is very noisy, the second floor is all a separate private room, fresh and elegant, and the decoration is magnificent.
The fat man was not polite, swaggered up the stairs on the second floor, and walked into a private room the size of ten people. The waiter walked in with some hesitation, and they could see at a glance that the fat man and I were not locals, but now there are a lot of rich people in the mainland, and almost all of them can go to Hong Kong to play and spend, and almost all of them are nouveau riche bosses who ride the wave of reform. However, the fat man and I don't look like businessmen no matter how we look at them. The average rich boss is at least in a suit and leather shoes with trouser legs, leather shoes shining against the baldness of the Mediterranean, and a gold chain as thick as a dog chain hanging around his neck, showing the wealth of the rich man.
The waiter was a little girl, probably new, and seeing that there were only three of us, she said with some hesitation: "This is a large private room, and there is a minimum consumption." ”
The fat man sitting at the table ignored the waiter, and as soon as he sat down, he began to order eagerly: "Sea cucumber and abalone, pick the largest abalone, come six or seven first; Then there is the bird's nest shark fin, the shark fin should be in a whole pot, not a small cup like that. There are also German pig's trotters, T-boy steak, Australian oysters and Japanese-style steamed crab, a pot of soft-shelled turtle soup, and two vegetarian dishes, such as clams and braised winter melon, fried shrimp with celery, and then a bottle of XO. After that, I closed the menu very easily.
In front of food, the fat man is definitely the top foodie, he didn't breathe, ordered the food coherently, and then comfortably put his arm on the handle of the chair, leaned back, and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
The young lady standing next to her was stunned, she didn't understand Mandarin very well, and the fat man's speed of ordering food was too fast, and those who didn't know thought that the fat man was a broad boss who often came here to consume. After listening to the fat man's order, Boss He pulled the waiter out with a not very good-looking face, and didn't come back for half a day.
The drinks were brought to the table first, and the waiter asked me, "Do you want to open it?" ”
The fat man, who was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, didn't open his eyelids, and immediately said, "Open." ”
When the waiter heard this, he quickly opened the wine, skillfully inserted a few ice cubes into the wine glasses in front of me and the fat man, and then poured the wine with a bang.
Only then did the fat man open his eyes, pick up his wine glass, and couldn't help but smack his tongue and say, "Lao Zheng, look at how beautiful this golden liquid is, and there is a faint fruity fragrance when it smells." After speaking, he took a sip very elegantly.
I couldn't help but laugh in my heart: Dead fat people really know how to pretend, when will they learn to taste wine? I was really afraid that he would dry up his head with a wine glass just now, and then said that this foreign wine was worse than horse urine, which would be a shame and a big hair, but I didn't expect my worries to be superfluous, and the fat man leisurely put on a "master is a big guy" look, very proud. However, having said that, this foreign wine is really delicious, and people who don't know how to taste it can also detect its goodness, and the taste is fragrant and delicate and refreshing, which is worthy of its frowning expensive price.
The dishes began to be served one after another, and we were not polite, shaking off our cheeks and starting to eat and drink. Boss He finally came back when the dishes were ready, anyway, we didn't worry about him running away, he was willing to take out the Yuequan diagram, how could he care about this meal.
The manager of the restaurant then came to greet him in a suit and leather shoes, and when he saw Boss He, he shook hands with him very enthusiastically and talked, and it is estimated that Boss He often comes here to eat and cheer. Boss He stood up and introduced me and the fat man to him and said, "This is the Taoist Yixue master I invited from Beijing, and he is very capable." ”
I shook hands with the manager of the restaurant very politely, and thought: When I first arrived in Hong Kong, I couldn't lose the face of my compatriots on the mainland.
As a result, the fat man continued to wave his chopsticks nonchalantly, and then squeaked and drank a small wine, looking arrogant about who you are, I couldn't help but glare at him, and he pretended not to see it. The fat guy is the most annoying thing for others to disturb him when he is happy to eat, and he often says that it affects his appetite.
The restaurant manager didn't care about the fat man's attitude of ignoring him, and introduced himself with a smile in quite proficient Mandarin: "The surname is Qiao, you can just call me Xiao Qiao." ”
I listened to the hotel manager's self-introduction, and my heart was happy, and I said: Your wife should not be called Zhou Yu, right? I still said with a polite smile on my face: "Manager Qiao is dignified, and at first glance he is a person who does great things, so please take care of him in the future." "It was my intention to say a few high-sounding polite words, and then the man would leave in truth, and no longer disturb the elegance of our meal.
As a result, he said to me with a smile: "I heard Boss He say that you are a master of Yixue in the capital, I didn't expect to be so young, but I really responded to the sentence called real people don't show up, young and promising, young and promising!" Now that there is a master here, can you help me calculate a hexagram, even if you look at the face, what is the future of the ward brother? ”
I don't know if this man revolted temporarily, or if he was instigated by Boss He and deliberately came to make me look foreign. I am an inverted "mountain mover", and I am not a feng shui master who counts fortunes and looks at appearances, how can I know what the future of others will be?
The fat man who was sitting on the side of the meal heard the hotel manager's plea, so he stopped his chopsticks and glanced at the restaurant manager, and then looked at me with a very unfortunate expression, and then continued to fly up and down and wave his chopsticks, with an expression that he didn't care about himself.
I couldn't help but scold in my heart: "Dead fatty, why don't you help me out of the siege." ”
Now that he was forced to go to Liangshan in front of everyone, he had to look at the manager of the restaurant head-on, and his mind began to calculate rapidly.
The so-called "face master", in fact, is generally a big fool, like a Chinese medicine doctor, who deduces the identity of the guest by looking at and hearing it, and then says some festive auspicious words and is perfunctory. "Look" refers to carefully observing the clothes worn by the guests, the ornaments they wear, and the identity of the guests can be roughly inferred through guò gestures. However, "smell" is different from the smell of traditional Chinese medicine, which is the smell of smell, the smell of the person, and the identity of the guest can be guessed more accurately. For example, the vendors in the vegetable market have their own special fishy smell or aroma of vegetables and fruits, as well as the smell of raw meat on the butchers; The chef of the restaurant has the smell of stir-fried food all year round, and the smell of disinfectant water on the doctors and nurses. The so-called physiognomy master can observe words and colors to the extreme, and you can deduce what kind of industry you are from guò through the little or even a hint of different smell that emanates from your body.
"Listening" is to communicate and talk to each other through guò, which is used to be more certain of one's own inferences. Then "cut" is based on your facial expressions, demeanor, and diagnosis. For example, if you are full of red face, you must be in a state of success at this time; If you have a difficult face and are worried, you will definitely say that your Yin Tang is black, and something troublesome has happened recently.
There are also some people who do a good job in advance, that is, they put the "trust", that is, the informant, in the crowd of people who want to see each other, so as to eavesdrop on the purpose of the visitor, this kind of is a complete liar, and there is no technical content at all.
Physiognomic masters generally don't say anything to death, that is, they don't clearly point out your predicament, leave a few tails in a sentence, and when you catch one of them, you take the bait. Then he will go down the vine, talk about things that exaggerate you, and soon get you in. And the solution to the problem is also very simple, which is to sell you some magic weapons to ward off disasters and evil spirits, so that you can be deceived unconsciously and pay for it obediently.
Not all physiognomy masters are liars, and there are also masters who really study Yi Xue, and are familiar with ancient and modern things, and have insight into people's feelings. But such a master generally does not seek fame and fortune, and his time is spent on self-cultivation and enlightenment, and he will rarely have time to look at his face and measure his fate for others. And the magic weapon that can really drive away disasters and ward off evil spirits is also preserved, but there are very few treasures left in the world, and it all depends on chance to get it.
In fact, small disasters or small disasters are for peace of mind, you can buy some ordinary copper mirrors, or ancient copper coins, which can be used to ward off evil spirits. You can even go to the pharmacy to buy some cinnabar, and then use a brush to write some auspicious words on yellow paper, press under the pillow or put it in your wallet, which can have the effect of praying for blessings and warding off evil spirits. You can also raise a few pots of cacti or cactus balls and place them on the windowsill, which can also play a role in blocking evil.
There are many simple and effective methods, there is no need to listen to others fool, be wronged, and spend a lot of money to buy some so-called magic weapons.
