Quick Transmigration: When Can I Just Lay Down and Wait to Die?

Chapter 106 The Fortune Teller of the "Jubilee Year" 1

Opening her eyes, Liu Yuxi habitually scanned her surroundings with her mental energy and was almost startled. Anyone would be shocked to see the place where she slept, with so many urns in the front yard.

Thankfully, after scanning everything, I discovered it was a funeral supplies shop. It was a courtyard house; the front facing the street was the storefront, and the back consisted of the family's two-story house and storage room.

Quickly take over the original owner's memories. The original owner was born in 1984. Her parents ran a funeral supplies shop in Jiang City. In April of this year, when they went to buy goods, they were hit by a large truck and died in a car accident.

It's 1999 now. It's the time when the original owner was in her first year of high school and had just started summer vacation. The original owner's parents were both over 60 years old and had only one child. They were considered to be a daughter born late in life, but this was not normal. How could they only have one child at such an old age? Recalling how people often drove to pick up the original owner's father and the equipment he brought, Liu Yuxi realized!

This is the cause and effect of her old man's side business. Everyone knows that true feng shui masters, by revealing heavenly secrets, changing destiny, and disrupting the balance of cause and effect, mostly suffer the retribution of "five evils and three deficiencies".

The five disadvantages are: "widowhood, widowhood, loneliness, solitude, and disability".

The three things lacking: "money, life, and power".

It seems the original owner also had some guesses, otherwise he wouldn't have paid so much attention to these things in his memories.

The original owner's family was not short of money. Although the parents did good deeds, they had enough money to prepare for the original owner. However, the original owner was an only child and was weak from a young age, the kind of weakness caused by congenital deficiencies.

So the original owner's old man didn't teach her any knowledge about feng shui. He only hoped that she could grow up healthy. But the old man didn't expect that before the original owner came of age, he and his wife would pass away first.

Because the original owner was weak from childhood and her family was in the funeral industry, she didn't have many people to play with, so she naturally became quite withdrawn. She focused all her extra energy on studying, which is why she was about to enter her second year of high school at the age of 15.

The original owner died because her parents had passed away and she was also worrying about what to do with the family's funeral shop. She couldn't put her studies down, and perhaps because she was thinking too much, her frail body couldn't bear the burden, which led to her death.

The only thing the original owner was struggling with before he died was the family's funeral shop. If that didn't work, he would just have to keep it open, or hire someone to watch the shop!

Now, the most important thing is to find the books and tools related to feng shui left by the original owner's father.

He used his mental energy to scan the entire house, storing everything in each room into his spatial storage, which he would take out later after tidying up.

Put all the original owner's parents' and the original owner's belongings together, burn them at a certain time, and then perform a ritual. The rest, including the bankbook, cash, her father's books, a compass, a peach wood sword, and some talismans, were all put into a large box.

Currently, Liu Yuxi only has a slight understanding of feng shui. She plans to stay at home for the next few days, picking up her martial arts skills while systematically studying the books left by her father.

Over the next few days, Liu Yuxi used the spatial acceleration to first master the Lesser Formless Skill and the Lingbo Steps, which would be sufficient for ordinary people.

He repeatedly studied the books on feng shui left by Liu's father, but he still needed to combine them with examples to prove them. After all, it was knowledge he had never encountered before, so it was better to be rigorous.

She went through all of the original owner's courses from elementary school to the first year of high school, after all, the original owner was a "top student", and she couldn't let her arrival ruin the original owner's image.

Having mastered all the necessary knowledge, she began searching through the original owner's memories to see if there were any suitable people among the original owner's interpersonal relationships to hire to manage the shop. If not, she would have to look at their appearance to hire one.

Unfortunately, the original owner's social circle was too limited. Her parents had no relatives, and besides them, she only had classmates, with whom she had little interaction.

Sigh, she couldn't even save herself the trouble, because the shop wasn't in a hurry to open, so she posted a job advertisement on the shop door.

She planned to use her mental power to scan through the library and other buildings in Jiang City first, since she hadn't recruited any staff for the shop yet. Unlike later years when everyone had a mobile phone, if she went on a long trip, how would people apply for jobs?

I leave home at 10 a.m. every morning and return at 5 p.m., and I also wrote the application time on the job posting.

As I passed by buildings of research value, I used my mental power to scan their exterior, interior furnishings, and surrounding layout, while simultaneously imprinting the feng shui knowledge I had learned from the certificate into my mind.

Then I went to the library to find Taoist classics and related books from this world to study. After returning home, I also studied the Taoist classics and Buddhist scriptures that I had copied from the previous world, and verified them against each other.

There were also applicants, after all, Liu Yuxi offered a decent salary, and the job was easy, from 9 am to 6 pm every day.

But Liu Yuxi was the only one living alone at home, and she was usually away from the shop because she was at school. She needed to find someone honest and reliable. Through face reading, she finally found a sister-in-law before the start of the school year.

After sorting out the business with her sister-in-law, it was time for school to start. Liu Yuxi went to school as usual, and after school, she would set up a fortune-telling stall on Tianjie Street!

Tianjie is a street in their area that specializes in selling old and used items. It's next to the City God Temple and is similar to Panjiayuan in Beijing. However, there are very few genuine items here; most are replicas aimed at tourists. After all, Tianjie is a major feature of Jiangcheng, and tourists will come and take a stroll around when they visit.

She was too young, so business was naturally not very good, but she didn't care. While tending the stall, she would do her homework first, and then read Taoist classics.

Initially, her customers were just trying to amuse Liu Yuxi because she was young. After all, the sign on Liu Yuxi's stall said, "One hundred yuan for every divination, no charge if it's inaccurate!"

One hundred yuan was quite valuable 2000 years ago; many people only earned a few hundred yuan a month. However, the note that it was free if not accepted made people less hesitant.

The first customer was the stall owner next to her, who sold some jade imitations. He greeted Liu Yuxi, "Young boss, what's your name?"

Liu Yuxi, seeing that he didn't look like a bad person, replied, "Uncle, you can just call me Xiao Liu. What should I call you, Uncle?" "Just call me Uncle Li! Why are you setting up a stall at such a young age? And a fortune teller? This business might not be easy!"

"It's nothing, Uncle Li, I'm just here to gain some experience and level up my skills!" This made Uncle Li laugh. "Little Liu, since you call me Uncle Li, I'll give you a free trial. Can you tell my fortune?"

“Uncle, you set up your stall in this area, so you know the rules of this business. If you’re just playing around, then don’t bother calculating. 100 yuan is not a small amount of money!” Liu Yuxi advised.

Uncle Li chuckled to himself upon hearing Liu Yuxi's words. This young girl was quite confident. He laughed and said, "I said I'd let you open for business, so I will! Meeting is fate, and I still have 100 yuan!"

The businesses on this street, apart from those with storefronts, are basically all about "either not making any business, or making enough to live on for three years." The stalls aren't usually that busy, and people nearby who overheard Liu Yuxi and her friend's conversation were cheering them on.
