Chapter 489: Changing the Nine Numbers of Your Life Palace

~9 min read 1,761 words

"That's right, one hundred million." Li Dashan felt a bit guilty reporting this figure, because he had collected all these medicines from villagers in the mountains, and the cost was only a few tens of thousands of yuan.

"The medicine is good, but it's really not worth this price." Chen Yu frowned and said, "Besides, when you collected them, it definitely didn't exceed one hundred thousand."

"Brother, I'm in business." Li Dashan laughed, "No matter how low the price was when I collected them, I still have to sell them at market price in the end, don't I?"

"But your markup is a bit too high. At market price, these things wouldn't exceed thirty million." Chen Yu said, "Although these are all precious Chinese medicines, at most they are Precious Grade. The price you mentioned is only possible for Yuan grade medicine to have such a high markup."

"Brother, you are also an expert. You know that even Precious Grade medicine is hard to come by these days. My items are of good quality and age, and they are worth this price." Li Dashan said with a smile, "One hundred million, if you like it, take it away."

"Chen Yu, this is too expensive. Let's go look somewhere else." Fan Zhen didn't understand medicine, but she felt these medicines were really too expensive. One hundred million—ordinary people couldn't earn this much money in several lifetimes.

"Alright, going elsewhere to look is fine too." Chen Yu nodded.

"Brother, I dare say, I have monopolized all the Precious Grade medicinal materials in this Wangchuan area." Li Dashan wasn't afraid, "You definitely won't find my goods elsewhere. This is my business card. Take it; if you can't find anything suitable, come back and find me."

As this guy said this, he handed over his business card. Chen Yu said he was leaving, and he wasn't panicked at all. After all, the goods had already been shown to Chen Yu, and he also believed Chen Yu was someone who knew his stuff.

Except for his place, you really couldn't buy these high-quality medicinal materials anywhere else.

"Good." Chen Yu took the business card and nodded, "Since we've met, let me give you a few words."

"Haha, go ahead, brother." Li Dashan laughed.

"A person's fate is destined from the moment they are born." Chen Yu said, "Growing up, getting married and having children, earning money to support the family, and finally holding your grandchildren to enjoy family happiness—toiling for a lifetime is nothing more than leaving something behind for the descendants."

"What do you mean?" Li Dashan's expression changed.

"Li Zong should be nearly forty this year, right?" Chen Yu asked.

"Yes, thirty-eight. What about it?" Li Dashan stared at Chen Yu.

"Married twice, dated three times, and been on countless blind dates." Chen Yu said calmly, "But as soon as it comes to talking about marriage, the partner will definitely have an accident, either dying prematurely or suddenly breaking up."

"It was hard enough to get married twice; the first wife had an accident while pregnant and the fetus died in the womb, and the second wife died in childbirth, with neither mother nor child surviving. Am I right?" Chen Yu asked.

"How do you know that? Who are you?" Li Dashan's face turned deathly pale in a flash. His hands were trembling slightly, and his voice had a tremor.

"Forgot to tell you, I understand Traditional Chinese Medicine and also Appearance. Wide ears, narrow nose bridge, and the marks between your eyebrows and eyes form the 'Three Stripes of Doom'." Chen Yu said calmly, "This doom curses your wife, children, father, and brothers. Without an accident, it is a lifelong condition of being alone."

"So no matter how much money you earn now, there are no descendants to inherit it. Take care of yourself. Zhenzhen, let's go." Chen Yu and Fan Zhen turned to leave together.

"Master, please stay." Li Dashan suddenly woke up. He hurriedly followed, knelt down in front of Chen Yu with a thud, and shouted with red eyes, "Mr. Chen, I had eyes but failed to recognize a master. I didn't see that you were a master. I beg you to help me."

In his shock, Li Dashan clung tightly to Chen Yu as his straw of salvation.

What Chen Yu said was almost word for word accurate. He had dated, been married, and been on countless blind dates.

But as of now, not one had succeeded. He had seen fortune tellers before, and what they said was almost exactly the same as what Chen Yu said.

Moreover, he had just met Chen Yu, and Chen Yu hadn't asked for his birth date or time. Why did Chen Yu know so clearly? There was only one possibility: this young man in front of him was actually a very powerful expert.

"Help you?" Chen Yu shook his head, "To defy Heavenly Mystery and change the numbers of fate, I have to risk Heavenly Retribution to do it. To save you, I should get myself involved?"

"I... I beg you, Mr. Chen. I am the only son for three generations. I still don't have a partner because every time I'm about to succeed in holding hands, something happens. I don't know the reason for this, so I beg you, sir, to help me." Li Dashan knelt on the ground and pleaded bitterly, "Even if I have to go bankrupt, I am willing."

"Do you think I lack money?" Chen Yu smiled.

"This... Mr. Chen is certainly not a person who lacks money, but I beg you to help me, even if it means I live ten years less." Li Dashan said with red eyes.

"I can help you, but your life is naturally like this. If I want to help you, I must change the Nine Numbers of your Life Palace." Chen Yu said with a troubled look, "Doing this is defying the heavens, and I will be subject to retribution later."

"Mr. Chen, you can make any conditions you want. As long as I can do it, I will." Li Dashan looked up, "All these medicines you want, I will give them to you for free."

"That won't work either. Only these medicines of yours are valuable, and I don't want to provoke Heavenly Retribution because of this." Chen Yu shook his head and said, "You should ask someone else. However, it's probably hard to find someone capable of changing the Nine Numbers of the Life Palace. Even if you find one, the other party might not be willing to risk Heavenly Retribution to do you this favor."

"Mr. Chen... what exactly do I have to do for you to help me?" Li Dashan was almost crying.

He knew that what Chen Yu said was not a bluff. The fortune teller who pointed out his problem before went blind a few days later because he leaked Heavenly Mystery.

He could see that Chen Yu had a way, but Chen Yu was just putting on airs and refusing to act.

"How about this, you have quite a lot of things in your medicine warehouse." Chen Yu said, "I'll use this bag to pack them until I can't fit any more. How about that?"

As Chen Yu said this, he pointed to a plastic bag on the table. It was a large shopping bag from a supermarket, at most forty centimeters long and sixty centimeters wide.

"Good, Mr. Chen, just take whatever you fancy." Li Dashan nodded hurriedly, fearing Chen Yu would go back on his word.

"Then I won't be polite." Chen Yu smiled. He picked up the shopping bag and started searching for things.

The medicinal materials that Zhang Dashan previously wanted to sell for one hundred million were the first to be taken by Chen Yu, and then Chen Yu started searching for things in the warehouse.

It wasn't until Chen Yu started searching for things that Zhang Dashan realized he might have been tricked.

Because the bag in Chen Yu's hand could never be filled no matter how much he put in, and Chen Yu wasn't polite either, constantly stuffing various precious medicinal materials into the bag.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of pounds of goods were collected by Chen Yu.

Seeing that the items were almost all collected, Chen Yu put down the bag with satisfaction.

Sending out his Divine Sense and seeing that his Space Bracelet was already filled with medicinal materials, Chen Yu almost laughed out loud.

Zhang Dashan probably never dreamed that the bracelet on Chen Yu's wrist was a Space Bracelet with thirty cubic meters of space; even if he emptied his warehouse, it could still fit it all.

Li Dashan stood there foolishly, looking at the half-empty warehouse, and he felt like crying.

"Alright, no more packing." Chen Yu said, "Come, let me give you something."

Chen Yu took out two Talismans and a red thread and handed them to Zhang Dashan, "You have someone you like now, the kind where there is mutual affection?"

"I do... but I don't dare to tell her easily. I'm afraid something will happen to her." Li Dashan nodded hurriedly.

"Ask her out for a drink. When you've had enough and she's not paying attention, wrap one end of the red thread around your index finger and the other end around her index finger—either left or right hand is fine. Stick the two Talisman Papers on you and her respectively, and the problem will be solved." Chen Yu said.

"This... this... does it really work?" Li Dashan was a bit doubtful.

"If you don't believe me, I'll just give the things back to you." Chen Yu smiled slightly, left a business card, and said, "Don't worry, it's guaranteed to work. I'm leaving first. You hurry and find a way to ask her out for a drink."

Chen Yu said this and went out with Fan Zhen, leaving behind Zhang Dashan, who was still half-doubting.

"Chen Yu, are you bluffing him?" After going out, Fan Zhen couldn't help but ask.

"That's not it. He really does have those problems, but I can't do the thing of defying the heavens to change fate; I don't have that ability." Chen Yu laughed, "But I can tie a marriage thread for him. Once the marriage thread is formed, his fate and his partner's fate will be linked together from now on."

"With their fates linked, he won't have the phenomenon of cursing his wife anymore." Chen Yu laughed.
