Chapter 19

But when he robbed the clerk, he discovered this was the kind-hearted accountant Mr. who had waived his rent.

The melon farmer's heart softened, and he couldn't bear to kill the clerk to silence him.

He was also afraid the clerk would recognize him, so he didn't even rummage through the box holding the rent money.

He only snatched a little money from the clerk's person, then hurried off!

If any single link in this chain had gone wrong, the result would never have been like this.

For example, what if this melon farmer who committed the robbery had been a truly vicious and evil person?

Or, for instance, what if the melon farmer had been too nervous during the robbery to recognize the clerk?

There were too many variables at play — change one key point, and the clerk's life would have been lost!

But Qi Tiezui not only calculated it, he even got every detail right.

With Qi Tiezui, it seemed there were no unknowable variables at all.

Everything he said came true on the clerk, one by one.

How could this not make one's blood boil with excitement?

Such fortune-telling methods, like a miracle — if ordinary people could learn even a tiny bit of it,

going into tombs for archaeology would give them several extra chances of success!

The audience at Sanqing Garden were now utterly prostrate in admiration for this fortune-teller Qi Tiezui.

Some people were very curious about why Qi Tiezui's calculations were so accurate.

They couldn't help but ask Zhang Lin.

"Mr. Zhang, how exactly does Qi Tiezui calculate things? Could you tell us about it?"

"That's right, that's right! We've only heard of the Eight Calculations of the Mystic Gate, but surely he must have some basis for these calculations!"

"Tell us, Mr. Zhang, please tell us quickly, let us broaden our horizons too."

"Mr. Zhang, you wouldn't only know the stories of Qi Tiezui's fortune-telling, but not know how his Eight Calculations of the Mystic Gate actually work, would you?"

Hearing someone question whether Zhang Lin didn't understand the Eight Calculations of the Mystic Gate,

he didn't take offense, but calmly said: "Since you all wish to know the details, then consider this one on me — originally, revealing the Qi family's Eight Calculations of the Mystic Gate should cost extra."

"So that you all can experience for yourselves the Qi family's Eight Calculations of the Mystic Gate of Old Changsha!"
