The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 416 A Chance to Pick Up a Bargain (2 Updates)
The middle-aged man waved his hand, and the disheveled old man left, thoughtfully closing the door to the reception room behind him.

"May I ask your name, Master?"

Whether it was Yunran or Renshenguo, their youthful appearances were too obvious, yet the middle-aged man didn't question them at all.

"My surname is Yun, and this is my little apprentice!"

"Master Yun, my surname is Luo, Luo Rusheng. You must already know that the matter I've entrusted to you is rather complicated..."

Before he could finish a complete sentence, Luo Rusheng started coughing violently again, which was seriously affecting the progress of the business negotiations.

Yun Ran took out a bright white pill, and Ginseng Fruit immediately took it and, with his short legs, handed it to Luo Rusheng.

"These are my homemade health-preserving pills. They work quite well. You can try them."

Of course, Yunran was only making a suggestion. If Luo Rusheng was wary and unwilling to accept food from strangers, Yunran would not mind.

Unexpectedly, Luo Rusheng didn't even think twice before unscrewing the bottle of mineral water next to him and swallowing the pill that Yun Ran had given him.

This unconditional trust and respect for Yunran significantly increased Yunran's goodwill towards him.

At least now, Yun Ran's gaze towards him is much gentler.

Luo Rusheng originally thought that the medicine would take some time to take effect.

Unexpectedly, after the medicine entered his stomach, a cooling sensation flowed directly down his throat, completely eliminating the dryness and itching in his chest.

Unfortunately, there was no mirror around him, otherwise he would have clearly seen that his originally ashen complexion had recovered considerably at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Perhaps due to his chronic cough, this rare moment of comfort made Luo Rusheng's eyes brighten considerably.

"Master Yun's medicine is indeed extraordinary!"

Yun Ran's lips curled up slightly, and she couldn't help but feel proud: Of course, how could something she made herself be defective?
But on the surface, he had an old-fashioned expression and nodded slightly: "Let's talk about the specifics first!"

Luo Rusheng's eyes, which had brightened slightly, immediately turned sorrowful again upon hearing Yun Ran's question.

Before coming, Yunran had a general idea of ​​this person's background: a merchant who dealt in medicinal herbs, whose ancestors were from Northeast China.

Because of his good character and the high-quality medicinal herbs he possessed, his business was exceptionally successful. At its peak, his net worth was estimated at two to three billion.

Unfortunately, two years ago, it was as if this person had attracted a jinx. First, his parents and relatives in his hometown had accidents, and some of them fell ill or died.

Later, his wife and children also encountered misfortune, and these events greatly drained his mental and physical energy.

Gradually, problems arose in his business as well.

First, the medicinal herbs he sold were suspected of being counterfeit, resulting in huge compensation payments. Then, his business partner betrayed him.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and cut his losses in time, selling off everything he could, which saved him half of his fortune.

But when you're down on your luck, even drinking cold water can cause problems. Luo Rusheng fainted after dealing with matters concerning his parents and relatives back home.

From then on, he, who was in excellent health, suddenly became sickly. He would get out of breath after walking a few steps, and when he coughed badly, he could even cough up blood.

Six months ago, he suddenly received an anonymous letter saying that he had been murdered and that he should find a powerful master as soon as possible, otherwise his whole family would be wiped out.

He then realized what was happening, but it was clearly too late. His wife had cancer, and his son and daughter had been in a car accident. The whole family was in the hospital.

Fortunately, he had been in business for many years and knew a lot of people. He finally found a few masters with real skills.

But when the other person saw his condition, they shook their head repeatedly, saying it was too late. If it had been discovered earlier, there would still have been hope. Of course, he was unwilling to give up or accept his fate, so he took out the centuries-old ginseng passed down from his ancestors and searched everywhere for help.

Three months ago, following someone's advice, he moved back to this five-courtyard house.

From the moment Yunran entered, she sensed that this house indeed possessed a unique vitality.

"This house must be very old. If I'm not mistaken, a very talented scholar once came from here, which is what people call being protected by the God of Literature."

Upon hearing Yun Ran's words, Luo Rusheng quickly nodded: "That's right. Back then, my children were still young, so our whole family moved to Kyoto."

This house was sold to me by a business partner. He did mention that his family had produced several top scholars in the imperial examinations.

My business was doing well at the time, and I had a good reputation. My business partner had been cheated and went bankrupt, so he couldn't bear to sell his ancestral home at a low price.

I wanted the kids to benefit from the property, so I bought it at a high price. When we renovated, we didn't change the overall layout.

Unexpectedly, my momentary act of kindness became my last lifeline.

The master said that his abilities were limited, and he could only try to prolong my life by letting me stay here and receive some protection…

Yun Ran nodded. Logically speaking, a project with a bounty of over 100 million yuan should be considered a big deal.

But in the end, she came to pick him up, which suggests that the story of this family had already spread throughout the Xuan Master circles in Kyoto.

They didn't accept the offer, either because they were less skilled, or because they knew that the people plotting against this family were too powerful for them to handle.

This gave Yunran the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Perhaps because he had been disappointed too many times, Luo Rusheng recounted his previous experiences with remarkable calmness, as if he were talking about someone else's affairs.

After speaking, Luo Rusheng looked at Yun Ran in silence and sat there quietly as well.

Just when he thought that Yun Ran, like everyone else, was shaking her head in regret.

Yun Ran spoke up: "I'll take on your family's matter!"

Having been rejected so many times, Luo Rusheng's eyes flickered when someone suddenly answered, and his heart was filled with a mix of emotions.

Before coming to see Yunran, the old man said that the master who came this time was obviously not simple.

He didn't realize it at the time, but now it seems that the old man really has a knack for judging people.

"Please provide your birth date and time."

If it weren't for the fact that this person's complexion was so terrible, and that he was burdened with so much resentment after his family's misfortune, she could have judged his appearance.

Nowadays, facial features can have some influence, but birth date and time are still more accurate.

"Okay, my birth chart is..."

Yunran silently recited Luo Rusheng's birth date and time in her mind, and then began to perform hand seals to calculate the divination.

She paused halfway through the calculation, her brow furrowing slightly, but she continued calculating anyway, determined that no one could stop her from making money.

We're still waiting for the money to build Qingfeng Temple!
