Chapter 1054
I looked at her and said, "Put your hair straight and cut it. Don't look like a beggar all day long."
"ah?"
She wondered: "If I straighten my hair, the fake tongue will be exposed."
"This is what I want you to change."
I looked at them and said: "The old methods no longer work. Not only do you make less money, but you are also burdened. You are obviously guarding the Snake King Temple, but are your monthly tasks very tight?"
These people all lowered their heads, acquiescing.
"So, you have to find another way."
"Go and cut your hair so it doesn't look like a chicken coop, and then use five thousand yuan to buy makeup and clothes."
"Aren't you related?"
"You spend money to rent a meditation room in the temple, and then ask the locals to spread the news, saying that the snake girl can help select this snake king. Naturally, someone will give you money."
Lao Zhao's eyes lit up at first, and then he said with some uncertainty: "Is this... can this be done?"
I asked him: "How many people have seen what a real snake girl looks like?"
He shook his head and said: "That's too little. The real snake girl only appears a few days a year. I am a local snake at least. I have only seen her once, let alone other people. Most of them are just rumors."
"That's fine."
I said: "To deceive people, you have to be willing to spend money first. To make some money, you have to be quick, accurate and ruthless. This method can last up to a month. You can make as much as you can."
Facts have proved that this method is feasible. Many people came secretly to ask for money. I set the charging standard for Lao Zhao not to exceed 5,000.
Why?
Because the Snake King bonus is 5,000, people have to think like this: "I paid 2,500, and after getting the bonus, I still have 2,500 left. I can also become famous and get a certificate. It seems that it is not a loss no matter what."
Only when the results are announced, these people will know that they have been cheated.
At this time, if they report it to the police, they will not be able to hold their head high in the local area in the future. If there really is a fool who doesn't care about reputation and comes to their door, it's okay and they should retreat, because no matter how you calculate it, they will make money.
In just this month, they completed a year's worth of tasks. When Qin Xiaofang came back and learned the news, she said with a smile: "It seems that the master has chosen the right person. Xiang Kuding is really capable. I believe it won't take long to surpass me. Kudin has been promoted to level five.”
I cursed in my heart and smiled on the outside: "Everything I say is for the sake of the puppet show, as it should be."
She nodded and said, "By the way, Qin Huaihu asked me to urge you yesterday. It's been so many days, when will you pay?"
"Next week, there is nothing to delay."
"Then hurry up. I've urged you several times."
"Okay." After chatting for a while, I watched Qin Xiaofang get up and leave.
To this day, Zhanghu chooses the snake king every year, and some people still use this method to defraud money, but fewer and fewer people are fooled.
Later, there was no news about Lao Zhao, but I knew that Er Yatou, relying on her connections, opened a canteen at the back of Tianmu Temple, mainly selling water, towels and plastic buckets.
This is the only one in the scenic area. Towels and plastic buckets are used to contain snakes, which are necessities to help cool down. It seems that the second girl is living a good life.
I have been procrastinating because I am waiting for the first day of July.
Because some time ago, the girl from the Xiangting Snake House told me: "My grandfather has never seen the four-legged snake disease that your friend has, and he doesn't know how to cure it. If anyone in Fujian can cure it, I'm afraid it's only the snake girl. Your friend When you come to our Zhanghu Lake, there is a high probability that you are here for the Snake Girl."
The Luohua Cave Girl in Xiangxi lives in a cave, and the Zhanghu Snake Girl in Nanping lives in the woods, in Nancuo Forest.
Not many people can see it. Lao Zhao, a local, told me: "From the first to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the snake girl will live in the woods for two days, and then go to the temple for a walk."
I asked him: "Have you never seen one before? What does a real snake girl look like?"
He shook his head: "It's hard to say. You'll know for yourself if you go and see."
Nancuo Forest is next to a small river. This snake is a tributary of the Minjiang River. They call this small river the Fangsheng River because people in Zhanghu do not eat snake meat. After the Snake Festival every year, many snakes are thrown into the river. If you know how to swim, you can swim away by yourself and you can't drown.
The weather is sultry and hot, and it just rained two days ago. At this time, there are many venomous snakes in Nancuo Forest. You must bring four things with you when entering the forest at night.
Flashlight, anti-bite leggings, bamboo pole, sulfur bag.
Many snakes are sensitive to heat sources and like to put out fires, so they do not use open flames for lighting. Bamboo poles are used to explore grass, and sulfur bags are used to smoke snakes.
I entered the forest in the evening and walked deeper. On the way, I saw stilt snakes, flat-headed snakes, as well as the highly poisonous bamboo-leaf green and white-browed adders.
I always took detours to avoid venomous snakes. If I didn't recognize the snakes, I would use bamboo poles to pick them away if I thought they were not poisonous. The forest was too big, and I walked deeper into it for more than two hours, but I still didn't see the place that Lao Zhao was talking about.
It was stuffy and hot, and there was sweat on the back of my neck. I wondered if I was going in the wrong direction?
It was past ten o'clock in the woods, and I looked with a flashlight from a distance. Behind two big trees, there was a dilapidated thatched house in front of me.
There was a faint light in the room, as if a candle was lit.
Walk over quickly.
"Is there anyone? Is there anyone?" I shouted to the thatched house,
There was candlelight in the room, but no one spoke.
I turned off the flashlight and moved closer, looking through the crack in the door slowly.
