"Master, where am I sorry?"

Ye Rongrong looked at the fortune teller who said he was "a pity" with a smile and asked.

"I can't say... I can't say it!"

The master shook his head and said.

In fact, Ye Rongrong understood that this was a common trick used by fortune tellers. He used this trick to attract the attention of passers-by, and then said something like this to arouse curiosity on the road.

As long as there is curiosity, 99% of the business will be done.

As long as passers-by are curious, they will ask this fortune teller to tell their fortunes. As long as you ask the fortune teller to tell your fortune, he will be able to pay you willingly.

There are many ways for fortune tellers to fool others. They often use superstitious mentality and ambiguous statements to make you "check your seat".

The mentality of a superstitious person is that as long as they guess something that is a little bit in the way of themselves, they think it is "accurate". People have all aspects of commonality and individuality. There is an essential difference between 10% "accurate" and 90% or 100% accurate.

Fortune tellers only guess some common "accurate", and people think that if a stranger can know what happened to him, he is "accurate".

It will be more accurate if the letter comes first, and then the master fortune teller will say some common idioms.

For example, when a frowning person comes to fortune-telling, if he only says that the person is in trouble, he will get more than 10% accurate. In fact, if he guesses that a person is fine, the rate is less than 30%. Out of one or two. It is ambiguous, let the operator check the number by himself.

For example, a fortune teller counts the number of children and says: "There are three children in my life, and one is hanging on the tree."

This ambiguous statement is accurate as long as the counted person has four children.

If the calculator says that there is only one child, "one is on the line", it is my destiny to have one, but two of them are missing, no matter how it sounds, it is correct.

If it is said that there are two children, this is also true, "one hangs", only two were born, and a fortune teller can tell you this immediately.

If there are three children, that's right, there are three born, but there is still one unborn.

If you say you have four children, that's right. There are only three in your life, but there is one more who is still alive and has also been born.

With such a big "mobile" kid, who could guess?

What's more, China's family planning can only have two children, and three children will be fined. If four children are born, for ordinary people, you can be fined and lose your fortune.

In China's current era, there are basically few families with more than four children. If such a low probability is met, the fortune teller will at most consider himself unlucky.

Even so, the fortune-teller master still has something to say, ten hexagrams are nine times accurate, and there is one hexagram of God's will, which is beyond the reach of human beings.

At most, the fortune teller will return the money to you, and his reputation will not be lost at all.

For a fortune teller, if he fools ninety-nine out of one hundred people, he will succeed, and he will be a master praised by everyone.

Ye Rongrong once saw a story in a book of essays.

There was a scholar in ancient times, his parents helped him choose a marriage, but he wanted to know if this marriage was auspicious, so he went to the street to find a fortune teller to ask.

"Master, I would like to ask, is the marriage arranged by my parents auspicious or not?"

The scholar asked the fortune teller.

"Would you draw a hexagram?"

The fortune teller took out a word box and said to the scholar.

The scholar fumbled in the word box for a long time, and took out a word.

Looking at this word, this scholar almost fainted, how could it be the word "death".

"I understand, this marriage is not good, you don't need to say it, I'll give you the money."

Xiucai put the money on the table as he spoke, and got up to leave.

"Don't worry, don't worry, the word you drew is very lucky!"

The fortune teller hurriedly said to the scholar.

"No way, master, please tell me, this word is already so clear, how can it be interpreted as auspicious?"

Xiucai pointed to the word "death" and asked inexplicably.

"Don't look at the dead word, it is unlucky,

You have to take this character apart and look at it, split it into two halves, the upper part is a 'one', and the lower part looks like a character '夗', doesn't it? "

The fortune teller pointed to the word and said to the scholar.

"It's a bit like it!"

The scholar nodded and said.

"Adding a 'bird' under the character '夗' becomes a character 'Yuan', and you are asking about marriage, so this character is called 'Mandarin Duck covered with brocade quilt', which is very auspicious. "

said the fortune teller.

"It seems to be the truth."

When the scholar heard this, he felt that it was very reasonable, so he immediately gave an extra tael of silver, and left happily.

The scholar left, and a young man came to tell his fortune.

"Master, I also want to ask, is the marriage I'm about to get married good?"

This young man has seen the process of marriage for Xiucai just now, and now he is asking about his own marriage.

"You draw a hexagram!"

The fortune teller put the word "death" back into the box, shook it with his hand, and said to the younger generation.

Before getting married in ancient times, people like to ask a fortune teller to calculate whether the marriage is suitable or not.

The younger generation fumbled in the word box for a long time, took it out and looked, and it was the word "death" again.

The young man thought that what the fortune teller said just now was "a brocade quilt covered with mandarin ducks", which should be auspicious, and immediately said happily: "I understand, this is auspicious."

"No, that's not right, the word 'death' is unlucky, and you are 'separating the couple with a stick'. This marriage is very bad."

The fortune teller shook his head and said.

"how can that be possible?"

The young man was suddenly dumbfounded, and asked puzzledly: "Why? The same word 'death', just now you clearly said to that person 'a mandarin duck covered with brocade quilt', how did I become 'the two mandarin ducks are separated with a stick' gone?"

"Who told you that when the man was drawing words, two people passed by outside carrying a brocade quilt; when you were drawing words, two people passed by outside carrying a big log."

"Brocade quilts are for happy occasions, and big wooden ones are for funerals, so although you drew the same word, the results are different."

The fortune teller, the old god, said on the ground.

I have to say that these fortune-telling theories that have flowed down from China for thousands of years, not to mention a single person, even a group of people have a way to fool them into believing it is true. Fool people a few times.

The so-called three-point praise and seven-point scare are the usual methods of fortune tellers.

Now the fortune teller is using "scare" on Ye Rongrong.

"yes?"

Ye Rongrong stared at the fortune teller and said with a smile.

"Why are you staring at me?"

Seeing Ye Rongrong staring at him and smiling, the fortune teller couldn't help asking with some doubts.

"Uncle Chen, don't you remember me?"

Ye Rongrong said to the fortune teller with a smile.

Although more than ten years have passed, Ye Rongrong still recognized this fortune teller at a glance. Except that he has aged a lot, other things have basically changed little.

"you know me?"

Seeing Ye Rongrong calling himself "Uncle Chen", the fortune teller looked at Ye Rongrong suspiciously and asked.

I really have no impression of this person in front of me!

"Uncle Chen, I'm Ye Rongrong, I'm Chen Bing's junior high school classmate, I've visited your house a few times to play."

Ye Rongrong said with a smile.

"Is it Chen Bing's junior high school classmate?"

Chen Hai was stunned for a moment, and said: "Oh, I remembered, you are really my classmate Chen Bing, you were not so tall and mighty before, but now you are so tall and mighty, I can't recognize you."

"At that time, I was still young and still growing up. After more than ten years, I got married and had children. This has naturally changed a lot. By the way, Uncle Chen, how is Chen Bing doing now? I haven't contacted him for more than ten years. .”

Ye Rongrong said excitedly.

Ye Rongrong really didn't expect that he would meet the former "magic stick" Uncle Chen just by walking in this old street temporarily.

The nickname of "God Stick" was not given by Ye Rongrong's buddies, but by Chen Bing himself, a nickname given to his father.

Ye Rongrong still remembers that the complete nickname Chen Bing gave his father was: "Old Chen God Stick".

"He's working in the UK now, and he's married to a daughter-in-law."

Chen Hai said proudly.

In the eyes of Chinese people, marrying a foreign daughter-in-law is a very capable thing.

"Wow, this Chen Bing is so capable, he has been working abroad, and even married a foreign wife."

Ye Rongrong said in surprise.

In school, this Chen Bing had the same virtue as himself, and he was not suitable for studying, but he was a little better than himself, he continued to study, while Ye Guangrong dropped out of school and stayed at home.

I really didn't expect that he is now working abroad and married a foreign girl.

"I have the ability, but it's a pity that I can't come home once a year."

Chen Hai said with some depression.

As parents, we all want our children to be capable and promising.

But this child is capable and promising, and has been away from home for many years.

Sometimes parents are quite envious when they see those incompetent children in other families staying at home to work or farm.

At the very least, the children are by my side, who can be seen and talked to every day.

"Uncle Chen, you just said I'm a pity, what's going on?"

Ye Rongrong asked.

"Cough cough cough, that..."

Asked by Ye Rongrong, Chen Hai blushed a little, and didn't know what to say about it.

After all, this Ye Glory is his son's classmate, so Chen Hai can't fool his acquaintances.

Besides, Chen Hai told his son that fortune-telling and word-testing are scams, and taught him the secrets of it. It is estimated that his son had already told his friends about these secrets.

I can't fool this leaf glory anymore.

"Uncle, you didn't fool me just now, did you?"

Ye Rongrong laughed.

"There is no way, this meal is getting worse and worse, there is no way to do it, you can't drink the northwest wind!"

Chen Hai said.

Chen Hai also did not deny that he had fooled Ye Rongrong just now.

"That's true!"

Ye Rongrong nodded and said.

With the popularization of the Internet, these tricks of fortune tellers have also been exposed, and young people do not believe in fortune telling.
