System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Chen Xuan returned to his stall and immediately began selecting items.

In just three minutes, Chen Xuan selected eight rough stones that looked utterly unappealing.

"I want all of these. How much is it in total?"

Upon hearing this, the bald man was utterly shocked.

If everyone buying raw jade was this open and straightforward, wouldn't everyone be driving a Rolls-Royce in a year?

The bald man carefully examined Chen Xuan and figured that this must be a wealthy disciple from some Taoist temple who had come out to make purchases. People from such backgrounds usually don't haggle.

"If you really want it, a flat price of 5000?"

"it is good."

After scanning the QR code to pay, Chen Xuan picked up the selected rough stone, put it in his handbag, and turned to leave.

"Hey, hey, bro, don't rush off!" Seeing Chen Xuan about to leave again, how could the bald man let such a big fish go?

"You still have raw stones?" Chen Xuan turned around and asked the bald man with a frown.

"I'm out of stock today, but seeing that you're buying so much and still heading in, you must not have found the perfect item yet, right?"

Chen Xuan nodded.

Seeing this, the bald man immediately perked up. "That's great! Young man, don't let my appearance fool you, I'm known around here for my kind heart. You want to buy a larger rough stone, right? I'll recommend a place to you, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Chen Xuan wasn't stupid; how could he not guess what this person was thinking?

"Thank you, but you don't need to trouble yourself."

Chen Xuan turned to leave, but as the bald man's last words came, Chen Xuan decided to go and see.

Because the bald man said that many Buddhist and Taoist disciples also went to that store to buy.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan immediately calculated based on the information provided by the bald man, and it was indeed true. This guy hadn't lied to him; he was genuinely acting out of kindness.

Chen Xuan nodded to the bald man, then flicked his finger, and the most inconspicuous rough stone on the bald man's stall fell directly to the ground.

"That stone is the best one on your stall; you can cut it open and try it."

Chen Xuan left without saying a word and then departed.

The bald man was completely confused. He shook his head, feeling a pang of regret. Why didn't he have any of the big fish that Fatty Fish had his eye on at his stall?

As soon as the bald man sat down, he saw a piece of raw stone lying on the ground. He immediately cursed, picked up the stone, and casually threw it onto the many stones on the stall. He then calmly closed his eyes to rest.

At this moment, a girl wearing glasses walked up to the stall with some embarrassment. Judging from her posture, she must have watched too many videos of getting rich overnight and wanted to try her luck at the raw stone market. What exactly was that strange dream?

The girl with glasses asked quietly, "Uncle boss, how much is this stone?"

Asking for a price in this tone only makes a novice more likely to be a customer; they'll usually just ask the price and then walk away.

The bald man didn't even want to look at the passerby.

The bald man glanced at the stone that had just fallen to the ground and said indifferently, "If you're serious about buying, the price is 200."

As expected, after the price was quoted, the girl with glasses began to hesitate. The bald man snorted and was about to kick her out.

At this moment, a thin-looking little boy approached the girl. He took her hand and said, "Sister, we only have 200 yuan left. It's not even enough for Grandma's IV drip. How can you dare to spend the money here?"

The girl's eyes reddened slightly upon hearing this. She told her younger brother that their grandmother only had a common fever, but in reality, her grandmother's illness required a large sum of money for surgery. By the time she went to borrow money from those cold-hearted uncles and aunts, her grandmother might have already died.

"Trust your sister, she had a dream yesterday."

The little boy, who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, looked up at the girl curiously and asked, "What kind of dream?"

"In my dream, I saw a person with an otherworldly air about him. He pointed at a stone and flew away."

Upon hearing this, the bald man immediately burst into laughter.

"Wow, young people these days are really good at making up stories. They're trying to play the 'fairy pointing the way' game with me!"

The bald man glanced at the stone in the girl's hand that had been smashed on the ground earlier. Even if there were precious stones in such a stone, they would be cracked and worthless if they were smashed on a cement floor.

"Well, well, I'm really impressed by you guys." The bald man thought that any expert could tell at a glance with a lamp that this thing was full of cracks, and no one would buy it for 10 yuan, let alone 100.

"50 yuan, can you take it?"

Upon hearing this, the girl immediately smiled, made a decision on the spot, and took out a hundred-yuan bill from her pocket and handed it to the bald man.

Here's your change.

"Thank you, boss. By the way, where should I cut this rough stone?"

Upon hearing this, the bald man turned to an old man dozing off to his right and said, "Old Liu, don't fall asleep, we have business to do."

At this moment, the siblings also looked in the direction of the sound and found a stall covered with a plastic sheet not far away, where a bald old man was lazily getting up.

"Sir, how much would it cost if this stone were cut open?"

Old Liu took the rough stone from the girl's hand, glanced at it, and shook his head. Clearly, even he could see that the stone was cracked.

"Sigh, then how about 30 for tool wear and electricity?"

"Okay, thank you, sir."

"Alright, you two little guys, sit here and wait a bit, don't get hit by any pebble."

Upon learning that Old Liu was only charging thirty, the bald man cursed under his breath, clearly showing that he had taken pity on him.

at the same time.

Just as Chen Xuan was about to reach the jade and raw stone shop recommended by the bald man, his phone vibrated.

I took out my phone and opened WeChat; it was a few pictures sent by Wang Wenjing.

Ming Dynasty - Horse-face skirt

Chief of Feixian Temple - Jiang Linglong

Chen Xuan glanced at it and thought it was alright, so he replied.

[That's right, the horse-face skirt can be worn daily in a Taoist temple.]

Wang Wenjing: [I packed a suitcase with underwear and such. By the way, Daoist Master, how much longer until you arrive? If we have enough time, I'd like to take Linglong to see a 3D movie; she'll definitely love it.]

Chen Xuan thought for a moment and replied: "I'll need some more time. If it's finished before 5 PM, that would be considered a success."

Wang Wenjing: [Okay, now she'll have something to do.]

Chen Xuan: [Thank you for your trouble.]

Wang Wenjing: [When will you stop saying thank you, thank you, and saying that I'm happy just because you've done me a favor?]
