Chapter 104 No Wonder You’re Poor
“What a handsome guy!” Long Fei was overjoyed, how could he see that Hao Ning, who was at his side, had already fainted from happiness, “You’re straightforward!”

“Wait!” Liu Shuai suddenly felt that Long Fei had set a trap for him, so he asked hurriedly, “You still haven’t told me how much your Dragon King’s Temple’s sea lanterns cost? If it’s too much, I won’t be able to afford it! ”

“Ah?” “If that’s the case…” Long Fei was disappointed when he heard it, and said hesitatingly, “About this, it might be a little expensive, one piece is five cents, and at least 10 pieces, which is exactly fifty cents, but if you think it’s expensive, then I can ask that old monk in his dream to give you a little discount… …”

“What the…” Liu Shuai laughed when he heard it, “Fifty cents? Ten sea lanterns of the Dragon King’s Temple? Do you know how much the other temple’s sea lanterns cost? ”

“How much?” Long Fei was very nervous, “Thirty cents?” After saying that, he hurriedly boasted, “This is different, a wish made in the Dragon King’s Temple would be fulfilled. I can give you rain, windblast, Lightning, and children as you wish. I can take over all these businesses. Moreover, you can even decide the gender of your babies.” Long Fei thought for a moment and said, “Hmm, but choosing a girl might cost you extra two Yuan, I’ve heard the pilgrims muttering that right now having a boy is not a good idea, because parents have to spend more when the boys grow up.”

“Hahaha,” the more Hao Ning heard, the more amused he became. If people knew that Long Fei’s temple only charges two dollars for deciding the gender of a baby, who would bother that much to ask a doctor, “Two Yuan? Two Yuan? Is this a two-Yuan store? Is it your slogan –Two Yuan only, you won’t lose much?”

“He-he,” Long Fei lowered his head and laughed embarrassedly, “If you want to have more babies, I can give you a discount ….”

“Pfft, who would want to give birth to so many? They can’t even afford to raise them —” Liu Shuai couldn’t help to laugh, “Ah, my good Long Fei, you deserved to starve to death. You don’t know the price at all. An ordinary lamp outside would cost dozens of cents, if you were in Mountain Lojia — “After he said this, Liu Shuai suddenly remembered that the real Mountain Lojia was in Zhang Chi Hang’s office, so he changed his tone,” That fake Mountain Lojia, a sea lantern would cost more than a few Yuan. If you charge only five cents here, it might not even be enough to pay for the oil!

“I heard that they used hogwash oil …” Long Fei blushed as he muttered, “I heard it was so cheap.”

“Ah, what the…,” Hao Ning laughed even harder, “You brought rain to people just asking for a hogwash oil sea lantern for five cents. Aren’t you afraid of dying from the smoke? ”

“Fifty cents!” Long Fei was embarrassed from laughing, and corrected Hao Ning, “You have to get at least ten sea lanterns! If you can’t pay fifty cents, you can only get windy weather! It must be fifty cents for getting rain! ”

“Hahaha,” Hao Ning laughed out loud. ” Cast rain only with fifty cents, you should be called Mr. fifty cents.

“That’s right, I’m Mr. fifty cents,” Long Fei said happily when he heard the name. He didn’t have much experience with such things in the world, so he was unable to understand the meaning behind Hao Ning’s words. “What a nice name!” Then he frowned and said in a low voice, “It’s not like I didn’t know that the price is a little bit low, but it’s good enough that my temple was not demolished. I’m already satisfied that there are still people willing to guard there. I don’t even know how many years I have saved for the Formless Donation to gain consciousness, so I treasure every single person who came to make wishes and the incense that they used to worship me. ”

“Hmm …” Suddenly, Liu Shuai felt that Long Fei was a little pitiful. He was also deeply moved about how this heartless dragon managed to live through these few years. Then he thought about himself because he has never had a father, he had been teased all these years, and so did his mother. It turned out that being a human was not easy and it wasn’t easy being a god either. He sneezed a bit, tried to hide his sadness from Long Fei and tried to make some fun, “And now you are working, you can get many sea lanterns simply by a month’s salary.”

“Useless…” Long Fei scratched his head, “How can I burn incense for myself? It has to be a mortal.” Then, Long Fei became excited again, “When the time comes, remember to give me some wishes, whether you want to have children or the wind and rain, it’s all fine.”

“A loser like me doesn’t even have a wife, what makes you think that I will beg for a having a child.” Liu Shuai smiled bitterly as he thought to himself. He did not say anything and only said, “Don’t worry, I will ensure you have enough sea lanterns.”

Although Hao Ning didn’t know what Liu Shuai was thinking, he couldn’t bear what Long Fei has said either. He turned his eyesight towards Long Fei, smiled and said, “It seems like you have read many books for nothing. Do you know what is reverse thinking?”

“Opposite way?” Long Fei did not understand what Hao Ning was saying. He looked at Liu Shuai, and Liu Shuai was also a little confused. “What do you mean by reverse thinking?”

S City itself is very close to the ocean, “Hao Ning said while laughing. As a northerner, he naturally knew of the difference between the north and the south, “Every year, there is already a tremendous amount of water vapor. In summer, there will be endless rainy days, so I don’t think there could be many people coming to you and beg for a rainy day throughout the year.”

“Hmm …” Long Fei looked at Hao Ning, counted with his fingers, and said in an embarrassed voice, “Last year, only two. Now my business is mainly about children.” after saying that, Long Fei’s face suddenly enlightened, “I heard that the government is calling for two babies ….”

“Shut up. You’re not allowed to interrupt me,” This high IQ, idiot thoroughly angered Hao Ning. “The point I’m saying is if you can make rain or wind to come, of course, you can also prevent rain or wind from happening!”

“Of course, this ability of mine is —” Long Fei was full of satisfaction and was about to show off, but suddenly he understood something and asked uncertainly while looking at Hao Ning, “You mean…”

“How many times does S city get hit by typhoons throughout a year?” Hao Ning was a little proud, “Every time it attacked large factories in the city, the shops have to close for business, the schools are not able to hold lessons, and no one can walk on the streets. How many cars and trees has it blown over? Innumerable losses have been caused. If you have a business to avoid typhoons landing or to prevent too much rain, think about it, how many people will give you sea lanterns! ”

“Really? Right, right, you are brilliant!” Long Fei looked at Hao Ning with his eyes wide opened, and then at Liu Shuai, who smiled and nodded at Hao Ning, causing Long Fei to count on his fingers immediately, “I will do the calculations properly, one sea lantern costs five cents and ten at least … …”

“You’re so stupid,” Liu Shuai said as he understood what she meant. He wanted to knock Long Fei’s head and scolded him with a smile, “You’ve already made such a huge ‘contribution’, and you’re still asking for 5 cents per sea lantern? At least five Yuan!”

“Plop!” Long Fei was so scared that he sat on the ground. Feeling the pain, he immediately patted his butt and stood up, and asked with a tremble, “Five Yuan, could it be that no one will come afterward?”

“…” Liu Shuai was speechless. When he thought about how Zhang Chihang casually saved Director Wang’s son, and he asked for one billion, he could only sigh at the fearless always get the most while coward would only starve to death, and he could not be bothered to explain, “If no one comes, I’ll give you a thousand lanterns per month!” After saying that, he coughed and added, “The kind that costs five cents.”

“Hahaha, OKOK,” Long Fei laughed so hard that his eyes became a slit, he couldn’t even see Liu Shuai anymore. Holding Liu Shuai’s hands, it was as if he was holding onto the God of Wealth, “You are so handsome!”

“Hehe,” Liu Shuai touched his bald head, he had never felt that 50 Yuan was so useful.

— — Strangely, ever since Hao Ning gave Long Fei this idea, S city became weirdly lucky in summer. Every time there was a big typhoon that was predicted, these typhoons would mysteriously miss S City. The only problem was that the cities surround were not lucky. They have got “accident typhoons” every year.

“Yes, Liu Shuai?” Liu Shuai was enjoying Long Fei’s worship when he suddenly heard someone call out to him from behind. Turning his head to see who the person was, his face immediately flushed.
