Chapter 334 The Young Man Who Reads Fortune
In the city of Chang'an, there were constant hustle and bustle of people and the sound of noise was endless.
In a corner of this bustling city, there is a tavern that is doing a booming business. The restaurant is full of guests and laughter echoes in every corner.
A young man in plain linen clothes was sitting quietly in the corner of the tavern. Although his face looked young, he exuded an innate free and easy air.
The pot of Xiaobai Gan on the table exudes an enticing aroma.
The young man gently lifted the wine glass and brought it to his lips. The wine slowly flowed into his mouth. In an instant, a strong and spicy taste swept over him like a surging wave. This was a unique taste he had never experienced before.
"Great!" He couldn't help but shout loudly, his voice full of enjoyment of this novel taste experience.
Then, he closed his eyes slightly and carefully felt every trace of wine remaining in his mouth. The spicy aftertaste jumped and lingered on the tip of his tongue, refusing to dissipate for a long time.
"Waiter, bring another pot of Xiaobaigan!"
The young man shouted loudly and excitedly. His clear voice instantly penetrated the noise in the store and attracted the attention of many people around him.
"Here you come, guest officer!"
The waiter responded quickly and hurried towards the young man.
The tavern is particularly busy today. The lively gathering in the city has attracted many business travelers and tourists, making the business of this store extremely hot.
Tables were occupied one after another by different guests, and the waiters were busy shuttling between the tables, and were already exhausted and out of breath.
Although it was winter and the cold wind was raging outside, the waiter in the store was sweating profusely.
Perhaps it was because he was in too much of a hurry, or perhaps it was because his body was exhausted from the long hours of work, the waiter was running and suddenly tripped over a table leg.
His body lost balance instantly, and he fell forward and fell heavily to the ground.
As he fell to the ground, the jugs of liquor hanging on his chest, which were prepared for the guests, also fell to the ground. There was a crisp "crash" sound, and the jugs shattered instantly, and the liquor inside splashed everywhere.
A lot of it splashed onto the young man's clothes, leaving irregular dark stains on the originally clean linen.
The drinkers around were attracted by the sudden movement. They put down their glasses and turned their eyes to the waiter who fell to the ground.
Seeing this, several big brothers with generous personalities immediately put down their wine cups, walked forward quickly, and helped the waiter up from the ground.
One of the older brothers kept muttering, "Peace and happiness, peace and happiness."
Everyone comforted the waiter with these words, hoping to dispel this little misfortune for him.
The waiter stood up, his face flushed red, showing embarrassment after falling and guilt towards the customer.
He looked at the young man a little embarrassedly and stammered, "Sir, I'm so sorry. You see, this is all my fault."
"Well, I'll buy you your little white wine. If you spill the wine on your clothes, you can name a price and I will definitely compensate you!"
When the young man heard what the waiter said, he was stunned for a moment, then gently put down the wine glass in his hand, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile.
"Forget it, I don't blame you. It's God who won't let me drink today! You, waiter, are so polite. I think you're going to make a fortune today!"
His tone was relaxed and casual, as if the little incident that just happened was just an interesting episode in life. At the same time, there was a certainty in his words that made people curious about what he said.
When some of the drinkers around heard what the young man said, they burst into laughter.
"Boy, the hair on your mouth hasn't even grown out yet, and you want to learn fortune-telling from others? Hahahaha."
The crowd's laughter was full of teasing, and it was obvious that they did not take the young man's words seriously.
The young man didn't care about the crowd's ridicule at all, but laughed along with them.
"Why, just because you're young doesn't mean you can't tell fortunes? Maybe I have the real ability?"
There was a glint of confidence in his eyes, and that bright look told everyone that he was not talking nonsense.
"Really capable?"
At this time, someone else spoke with a surprised tone.
"Could it be that you learned a few moves from Master Yuan?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's curiosity grew even more, and they gathered around, wanting to find out what was going on.
"Then I want to see how well you learn!"
"Hey man, this guy said you'll get rich today. I'm going to join in the fun and see if you'll get rich today. Is this guy right?"
Everyone was talking to each other, and the atmosphere in the whole tavern suddenly became more lively.
The young man raised his head slightly, looked at the waiter with a firm gaze, and said seriously: "Although I am young, I have never made a mistake in fortune-telling."
"I said you will get rich today, and you will get rich today."
His voice was not loud, but it was clear and powerful, making people involuntarily feel a sense of awe at his words.
The waiter was also a very smart and clever person. He knew very well that the store was extremely busy at the moment and had no time to care about anything else.
So he could only bow to the young man and said, "Sir, I appreciate your kind words. The store is really too busy, so I can't accompany you."
"Sir, please go to the counter downstairs for any questions about compensation. The wine will be served shortly!"
When the young man saw the waiter was about to leave, he quickly stood up and called him.
"and many more!"
The waiter turned around, his face full of confusion.
"Sir, do you have anything else to do for me?"
The young man smiled and said calmly, "I told you that you would get rich today, so you must be lucky!"
As he spoke, he opened the purse on his waist and took out a heavy ingot of gold.
The young man raised his arm lightly, and the gold drew a graceful arc in the air and flew steadily towards the waiter.
The waiter subconsciously reached out to catch it. When he opened his palm and took a closer look, his eyes widened and he gasped.
"Is this for me?" he asked in disbelief.
The young man nodded with a calm expression.
"It's for you. Look, you've made a fortune. Everyone, are my predictions accurate?"
After hearing the young man's words and seeing how generous he was, the diners around him applauded.
“It’s accurate, really accurate!”
There were exclamations of praise from the crowd. They were impressed by the young man's generosity and were also excited about the waiter's sudden surprise.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the tavern reached a climax, and everyone was immersed in this joyful atmosphere.
The young man looked at everyone's reactions and his smile grew wider. He seemed to have anticipated all this.
Then, he straightened his slightly messy clothes and strode towards the door of the tavern.
His back gradually walked away in the eyes of everyone.
