Her Cultivation Diary

Chapter 2230: Chapter 1885: Refusing to Admit Defeat! (2)

"Since our boss invited him, he’s definitely some super expensive type, right?"

"We’d better not bother him lightly, otherwise if he just casually does a reading and it costs a hundred, two hundred thousand, or several hundred thousand, we can’t afford it. How embarrassing would that be."

"Then forget it, forget it. I’ll just use Beanbag to do the reading, that’s good enough. If the result is good, we’ll say this AI is actually useful; if it’s bad, we’ll say the AI is just talking nonsense again."

"I’ll teach you: first use that Eight Characters charting tool to lay out the chart, and then ask Beanbag about the result. The output is super detailed, it really feels like the real deal..."

"Exactly, AI doesn’t cost money, but a master definitely charges a fortune..."

Song Tan fell into a deep silence.

But while she stayed silent, the employees kept chattering and still didn’t forget to throw their gazes at her. The heavy stares felt almost tangible, pressing down on her shoulders.

So much so that after hesitating for a while, she said, "The Daoist Master hasn’t been invited over yet. My parents went ahead and invited a local Great Immortal first."

"Oh." Everyone replied in unison, then added, "This Great Immortal might be good at reading people, but not so much at reading land, right?"

"Probably can do that too. In the village, where each family buries their dead, isn’t it all the Great Immortal who picks the spot?"

"Come on, the one in our village is just fooling around."

"There’s a Great Immortal in some village near us, super accurate."

Everyone talked over one another, and finally summed up: "But then again, none of these Great Immortals have ever looked at a proper housing development, right? Never heard of anyone inviting them to check one out."

So everyone fell silent again, their eager gazes once more landing on her. They had a lot to say, but were too embarrassed to say it straight to the boss.

Song Tan: ...

Since things had come to this, she could only start painting a big pie.

So she took a fierce bite of the meat pie, then said:

"Don’t worry, this time we’re inviting a Daoist Master from a very popular Daoist Temple with a long lineage! It’s just that he was contacted through our leader, through several layers..."

As for which leader, let’s not worry about it. In any case, it’s some leader. How they know each other, let’s not bother either—let’s just say they do.

"...He’s not really in it for the money, more importantly he has to see our sincerity."

So, just wait.

As soon as she said this, everyone’s joy burst forth, and the whole cafeteria was filled with a subdued cheer.

Yun Duo was overjoyed: "Once the Daoist Master finishes looking, I’m definitely going to buy a house for my sister. Boss, if I don’t have enough money, can we have it deducted from my salary every month?"

"Don’t worry." Song Tan waved her hand: she had long known that the farm employees weren’t all loaded. Take Liu Liu for example—if she’d had money back then, she wouldn’t be in this situation now.

A year or two at most, you’d barely save up the down payment. What about the renovation afterwards?

"When the time comes, depending on your individual situations, I’ll provide a five-year interest-free loan."

"Awesome!"

So everyone looked over again, full of expectation. "When the Daoist Master comes, can we listen to what he says?"

The older Master Jiang said gravely, "Boss Song, actually you invited him too late. Before you even secured the land, you should’ve asked a Daoist Master to look around the area and have him pick a plot for you."

True.

Song Tan thought drily: if she’d known, she shouldn’t have gone into farming; she should’ve invested in AI first. Train up the AI and let it pick a plot of land for her.

She angrily swallowed the last bite of meat pie, feeling like today’s meal didn’t taste that good anymore.

At this moment, some employees were still unsatisfied and asked quietly:

"Boss, when is that local Great Immortal we invited coming? Will they do readings for us? I want to get a reading done."

As soon as this was said, many more pairs of eyes turned toward her.

Song Tan: ...

"Stop with this messy nonsense."

Speechless, she stood up and headed for the door. But seeing everyone’s sudden look of disappointment, she couldn’t help gritting her teeth and saying:

"When the Daoist Master comes, I’ll see if I can think of a way to have him do readings for everyone together."

The village Great Immortals, when they read "situations," are mostly just reading faces, aiming to make money, dispel calamities, and so on.

The Daoist Masters from proper Daoist Temples are different. They have money; they care about their reputation, and they’re very well-versed in metaphysics and psychological techniques, very good at prescribing the right reassurance for each person.

Looking at this group of employees with not much money, they probably won’t push them toward spending a lot.

Anyway, she, a堂堂 Cultivator, even if she hadn’t cultivated to anything impressive yet, would never accept her employees being sweet-talked into spending money by some fortune-teller right on her farm. Whether it’s a few hundred or a few thousand, she just wouldn’t accept it.

As for talk about some high master hidden deep in the mountains and forests...

Like the reputation of Doctor Xiaoguo treating gynecological and andrological issues.

But then again, if someone were really that amazing within ten miles and eight villages, word of mouth would spread like crazy. No way it would stay this low-key, so low-key that you’d never hear of them unless you specifically asked around, right?

And there aren’t hordes of people driving in from surrounding cities from miles away, so their level is pretty obvious.
