Chapter 484 The Mysterious Fortune Teller From the East
The next day, Wang Shiliang packed his bags and successfully joined the company.
Because most daily necessities are available in the staff dormitories of the Incredible Magic Academy, and the school even provides robes that teachers should wear in class, Wang Shiliang only brought a few sets of changes of clothes and some sundries to wear inside.
Unlike Liu Lan who brought skin care products and snacks, and Cheng Zi who brought all kinds of useless popular daily necessities, the sundries brought by Wang Shiliang stood out among the teachers.
He brought a series of fortune-telling props such as the Book of Changes, copper coins, a compass, a table of heavenly stems and earthly branches, and he even brought a set of Tarot cards.
According to Wang Shiliang, after learning to read the Book of Changes, he tried to teach himself other fortune-telling methods. I have dabbled in birth horoscopes, palmistry, and tarot cards, but all ended in failure.
Among them, tarot cards are not considered failures. Anyone who has played tarot cards knows that there is no technical content in this thing, as long as it is interpreted according to the interpretation. Wang Shiliang can understand the Book of Changes, and Tarot cards are certainly a no-brainer.
In the end, Wang Shiliang did not turn into a liar who combined things, mainly because his image was not suitable for telling tarot cards to others.
First of all, the gender is not suitable. Those who read tarot cards are basically pretty girls. It would be fine if Wang Shiliang was a handsome little brother, but he has grown up to look like a 40-year-old at the age of 24. With such an appearance, he will basically have no chance of using Tarot cards in his life.
On the second day of the Incredible Magic Student and Teacher Training, the school added a new teaching assistant for the crystal ball divination class.
Wang Shiliang was wearing a loose black robe issued by the school. He stood in front of the fitting mirror and fiddled with his clothes. He touched the shaved area on his head last night and felt uncomfortable with how he looked in the mirror.
"This board does seem to be a bit short." Wang Shiliang lowered his head and looked at the top of his head. "It's freezing on the top of my head."
"Yes, according to my judgment, Assistant Wang, your current hairstyle is not suitable for you." The dressing mirror said, and several hairstyles with slightly longer hair appeared on the mirror, "If you like, you can try these three hairstyles."
"Oh." Wang Shiliang was startled by the dressing mirror that suddenly spoke. "Oh my God, the things in this school are really advanced. Even the mirror is a smart home connected to the Internet and can talk."
After that, Wang Shiliang touched the mirror, thought for a while, turned around and touched the bed, and poked the thick quilt on the bed: "Can you speak?"
The bed didn't pay any attention to Wang Shiliang.
Wang Shiliang arrived at the amusement park at 7 o'clock this morning. When he arrived, Jiang Qi was having breakfast in the staff canteen. Because Wang Shiliang only joined the job today, Jiang Qi did not live in the Incredible Magic Academy last night but in Snow Village.
In fact, Jiang Qi is not planning to live in the Magic Academy permanently during this period.
Of course, you can enjoy the convenience and happiness of magic by living in the school, but the school is a school after all, and the dormitories are all equipped like university dormitories.
There are double beds in the student dormitories and single beds in the faculty and staff dormitories. The dormitory is small and has a private bathroom, but there is nothing related to modern technology. The WiFi is stuck when there are many people. If you want to watch videos, you have to use your own data.
For normal migrant workers who have no choice, this accommodation environment is still acceptable, but who told Jiang Qi that he had no choice?
Jiang Qi can live in wooden house No. 1 in Xuecun. There are many magic props in wooden house No. 1. There are some in the school, but those that are not in the No. 1 wooden house can be carried in your pocket. Anyway, Jiang Qi is the boss. How can Principal Peggy accuse Jiang Qi of stealing school property?
If conditions didn't allow it, Jiang Qi would have wanted to move a pair of armors from the first floor to wooden house No. 1.
Practicality aside, who doesn’t want a shiny set of medieval armor?
"Assistant Teacher Wang, have you changed your clothes?" Jiang Qi knocked on the door of the dormitory.
"Okay, okay!" Wang Shiliang hurriedly opened the door and smiled appropriately, "Boss, is it okay for me to dress like this?"
"Hmm..." Jiang Qi took a look at Wang Shiliang's dress and felt that there was something wrong with it.
Like the middle-aged younger brother of a gangster brother.
Wang Shiliang looks older, with a face that does not match his actual age. In addition, he has worked on the construction site for many years, so he has some tendons on his body and looks very strong.
Before, Wang Shiliang wore a long gown and permed his hair very fluffyly, giving him an elegant look and the temperament of a fortune teller. Now he has shaved his hair into a square inch, and with his strong figure, dark skin, and doggy smile, he really looks like the younger brother of the gangster brother.
Hair of this size is undesirable.
"Wear a hat." Jiang Qi said, magicians all love wearing hats, regardless of gender.
The teacher's office at the Incredible Magic Academy retains many things left by teachers from the previous school. If you enter any office, you can find countless hats. Jiang Qi remembers that they are also in his office.
Jiang Qi went to the office to find a thicker-looking round hat for Wang Shiliang to put on, and led him to the auditorium.
"Breakfast is fixed in the auditorium. Lunch and dinner can be in the auditorium or in the goblin cafeteria on the third floor. It depends on you. Currently, the entire school is full of amusement park employees, so you can't order food. You can eat whatever the cafeteria provides. "
"When the school officially opens to the public on January 15, you can order from the menu. If you don't like to eat in the school, you can also choose to go to the staff canteen. It is best to change into casual clothes when going to the staff canteen. You know where the staff canteen is? Bar?"
"I know." Wang Shiliang nodded, "I went to see it yesterday and had dinner in the staff canteen."
The employee canteen has five insurances and one fund, including food and accommodation. It is a key inspection item of Wang Shiliang. Of course, he must find out where it is.
Jiang Qi walked to the door of the auditorium and said, "Open the door."
The door slowly opened.
"Teacher Jiang, Assistant Teacher Wang, good morning. Today's theme is the Dance of Summer, and a limited number of summer bubble pancakes are available for breakfast. Friendly reminder: If you don't want to hear unpleasant sounds, please stay away from the area near the deer head."
Deer head?
Jiang Qi was still wondering what the theme of Dance of Summer had to do with deer antlers, but it was difficult to hear the singing of deer antlers.
Different from yesterday’s Song of Spring, Dance of Summer is obviously brighter. The entire auditorium is in bright colors, the tablecloth is bright yellow, and the flowers in the vase on the small table for 4 people are also bright yellow. The vines on the wall were replaced by gardens, the wall clock moved its pendulum leisurely, the piano played cheerful midsummer music, and even the flowers on the riverside turned into lotus leaves and lotus flowers.
Also included is a shallow ditch filled with water.
As for the deer head on the wall.
Everyone knows that this deer head can talk, and it can't speak human words and can only bark randomly.
Yesterday, the deer head was entangled in vines, and the deer head cursed all day long with a cry that no one could understand. Today the vines disappeared and were replaced by beautiful flowers full of fragrance. The deer head was in a good mood and began to bark happily.
Shouting and singing.
Deer Head may feel that he is accompanying the music, but to normal human ears, it sounds like an unpleasant bark.
The tables next to the deer head were in a vacuum, and no one dared to sit on them.
Wang Shiliang, like Liu Lan and others yesterday, was shocked speechless by everything in the auditorium.
However, Wang Shiliang is different from Liu Lan and others. Wang Shiliang is a fortune teller, a super social bull, and a social terrorist who dares to ask questions about anything.
"Boss, why are the tails on those colleagues still moving?" Wang Shiliang not only dared to ask, but also dared to stare.
"Prop, mechanical tail." Jiang Qi said, "Pointing to his waist, there is a belt in front of the tail tied around his waist. By swinging the tail with the body's swing, the tail will twist in different amplitudes, which is better than ordinary prop tails. Be realistic.”
As he said that, Jiang Qi glanced at the big red tail of the fox orc who ran out with his tail in his arms yesterday.
"The only drawback is that if you keep flicking it for fun, you might lose the tail."
Wang Shiliang suddenly realized it, looked at the tails in the room and sighed: "What a professional actor."
"Teachers eat at the long table in front. Of course, it doesn't matter if you want to eat at the small table below. Generally, there will be more varieties on the long table." Jiang Qi continued, leading Wang Shiliang to the long table. .
There are not as many people at the long table today as there were yesterday.
Yesterday was the rehearsal for the first day of school. Everyone was present. There was a speech by the principal and the introduction of the new teachers. Today is the second day of school, so everyone's time to come to the auditorium to eat is relatively spread out.
Those who are used to getting up early come early, and those who want to sleep in later come later. Teachers generally come earlier because they don't need heavy makeup, hair style props, etc. They can just put on a robe and come out.
Students have a lot of troubles. Makeup, props, hairstyles, and contact lenses are all indispensable. It takes an hour or two just to tidy up in the morning, and if you want to sleep in, you have to look at your work schedule.
Jiang Qi glanced at the dining table. There were only Principal Peggy, Luo Tong, Liu Lan and Liao Min on the table. The others didn't know whether they had finished eating and prepared lessons or hadn't come yet.
Since Jiang Qi had already informed everyone in the group that a new assistant actor was temporarily recruited yesterday, everyone accepted Wang Shiliang's arrival well. Liao Min looked at Wang Shiliang's appearance and thought he was not young, less than 40 years old. He felt that Wang Shiliang was the closest to him in age among the teachers, so he smiled at Wang Shiliang in a friendly way and recommended dishes to him.
"What's in the red-rimmed teapot is hot milk tea. It's a palatable temperature. Assistant Wang can drink a cup to warm his stomach first," Liao Min said.
Wang Shiliang had never experienced a normal workplace. Seeing his colleagues being so enthusiastic, he was flattered. He nodded, picked up the red-rimmed teapot and poured himself a full cup of hot milk tea.
"The current temperature is 39 degrees, suitable for drinking." Teacup shouted.
The sugar cube clattered in front of Wang Shiliang, and it kept jumping enthusiastically, urging him to add sugar.
"Old...Teacher Jiang, this is..." Wang Shiliang looked at the sugar cube blankly.
"Tell him how many candies you want to add." Jiang Qi said.
"Oh." Wang Shiliang couldn't help but touched a handful of sugar cube jars, muttering in his heart that this rich man was different. Every sugar cube jar had to be turned into a robot, and said, "Two pieces!"
The sugar cube jar carefully put the two sugar cubes into the tea cup and ran away.
"Boss, don't you want a drink?" Principal Peggy looked at Jiang Qi.
"No." Jiang Qi had just finished breakfast in the staff canteen and was feeling very full now.
The food at the Incredible Magic Academy is made by chefs drawn from all over the amusement park. In terms of breakfast skills, they are definitely not as good as Master Bai. This morning, Master Bai was in charge of breakfast in the staff cafeteria. Jiang Qi ate four cages of soup dumplings and one The bowl of small wontons also came with two pieces of white sugar cake, which almost made me unable to walk.
On the other side, Wang Shiliang has already eaten.
Unlike Jiang Qi who was full of food, Wang Shiliang set out from the city to the amusement park early in the morning. Because he thought the company would provide a meal, he didn't even eat a bite of food and came directly with his bag.
After arriving, I looked at the dormitory and changed clothes. I was already hungry after working for so long, and started eating as soon as I sat down.
Bread, siomai, sandwiches, fried eggs, meat floss, whatever was available, he drank two large cups of milk tea in one go, which fully demonstrated the appetite of the 24-year-old young man.
Liao Min, who was sitting opposite Wang Shiliang, was dumbfounded. He thought to himself that this new colleague had quite a big appetite. It was rare for him to have such a big appetite at his age.
"Assistant Professor Wang, you just joined the job yesterday afternoon, right?" Liao Min started chatting with the new colleague in front of the boss.
"Yes!" Wang Shiliang stuffed his mouth with a sandwich and nodded vaguely, fearing that Liao Min wouldn't understand the double affirmation.
"Were you an actor before?"
"No." Wang Shiliang shook his head, "I used to be a fortune teller. For 50 yuan a fortune, I can tell the truth."
Liao Min & Luo Tong:?
Luo Tong, who had almost eaten, couldn't help but join the group chat: "Fortune teller? Is it the fortune teller I know? Birthday horoscopes or something."
"Yes." Wang Shiliang thought the milk tea was good and poured himself another cup. He drank half a cup of sugar-free milk without waiting for the sugar cube to come over. "I'm not good at birth dates. I'm the master of the Book of Changes. I know a lot about palmistry. One or two, I’m not sure about my facial appearance, but my tarot cards are actually pretty good. If you’re interested, for the sake of my colleagues, I’ll tell you some fortunes for free, including the Zhouyi Tarot cards.”
Liao Min & Luo Tong:......
Luo Tong glanced at Jiang Qi subconsciously and thought, can this be said in front of the boss?
Then Jiang Qi spoke.
"Assistant Wang Zhou Yi's calculations are definitely good and well received."
Luo Tong:? ? ?
Liao Min was moved.
"Assistant Professor Wang, can you tell me your fortune?"
"Okay!" Wang Shiliang said cheerfully, taking out three copper coins from his pocket and handing them to Liao Min, "Think about the problem you want to calculate, and then toss the coins 6 times. I... oh, I don't have it. Bring a pen and paper, otherwise, you are..."
"I am the teacher of the elf gardening class, my name is Liao Min." Liao Min said, "I have my class at 2 o'clock this afternoon. It is in the botanical garden on the second floor. Assistant Professor Wang, you can also sit in if you are interested. Today's lesson is Planting and Care of Flowers.”
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely do it when I have time." Wang Shiliang said, "I don't have pen and paper on hand right now. Why don't you, Mr. Liao, go to my office later and I'll do the math for you, or I'll go to your office."
"I have them here." Liao Min handed her lesson preparation book and pen to Wang Shiliang.
Assistant Wang’s first order at the Incredible Magic Academy was opened without charging any money.
All the teachers at the teacher's table gathered around to watch.
Liao Min counts health.
As before, Wang Shiliang used the art of language to make insinuations and quickly guessed that Liao Min had family hereditary hypertension and floaters.
Then there is Chicken Soup for the Soul. Because this hexagram does not charge money, the Chicken Soup for the Soul part is relatively short. Wang Shiliang did not show his masterly demeanor throughout the whole process. He ate and calculated at the same time, and after finishing one hexagram, he ate two small sandwiches.
"Assistant Professor Wang, can I do a fortune telling? I want to calculate my marriage prospects. I am over 30 years old and I am really worried that I still don't have a partner!"
"Come on." Wang Shiliang was full and showed off his superior demeanor.
By the time Jiang Qi and Principal Peggy left, the classroom table was already crowded with people, all lining up to tell fortunes.
"Boss, is Assistant Teacher Wang a real fortune teller or a real liar?" Principal Peggy is not very good at judging whether fortune tellers are real or fake.
"Fake fortune teller, fake liar." Jiang Qi looked at the crowd who were actively waiting for fortune telling, thoughtfully, "Assistant Wang's acting skills are not bad, do you think we should add some character plot to him?"
"What kind?"
"A mysterious fortune teller from the East. He came to the Academy of Incredible Magic as a teaching assistant just to learn Western divination techniques. He will randomly select the destined people in the school and calculate a hexagram from the Book of Changes. Each hexagram is 50. He is innocent."
Principal Peggy thought about it carefully and thought there was no problem: "You just need to be more careful when choosing."
"Of course." Jiang Qi nodded, "Leave such small matters to Assistant Wang. I believe he will take care of it."
