Chapter 220 The First Lesson of the Supreme Mage
Not to mention the wonderful feeling Huanhuan felt when he "became a father" to take care of a baby for the first time.
In one morning, Li Fei became familiar with basically all the mages and apprentices in the London Temple.
Most of the mages were tactful and humble. Only a young mage named "Paul Feli" looked at Li Fei with a slightly rude look, which seemed to be filled with some strong purpose.
In line with the attitude that it is best to solve the problem immediately and leave no hidden dangers as much as possible, Li Fei held this man for half an hour.
In the end, Master Bophili lost all face and politeness by Li Fei, and confessed to Li Fei, "We really need talents like you who can make money."
The London Temple was very poor, so poor that it was beyond Li Fei's imagination.
Kama Taj's headquarters is in Kathmandu, Nepal, with temples and various types of tertiary income. In addition, many magicians are actually monks halfway. They all have their own skills before joining Kama Taj.
So all in all, Kamal Taj is not poor.
The New York Temple cooperates with many large companies on Wall Street and exorcism teams, regularly helping them clean up the curses on their bodies and collecting large donations. After all, behind every Wolf of Wall Street, there are countless people who want to curse him to die early. .
The Hong Kong Temple has many restaurants in Tsim Sha Tsui, Sham Shui Po Street, Victoria Harbor, and North Point. It can be said that basically all popular food stall restaurants have the shadow of the Hong Kong Temple behind them.
In addition, the temple also has martial arts schools and other places for paid teaching. Except for the good talents who have been absorbed into the Xiangjiang Temple, most of the remaining martial arts masters have gone to the pier to check out the venues. This way, the temple has another one. Black income.
Only the London Temple is the most pitiful. It is right next to the visitor entrance of the Ministry of Magic. In addition, the power of Dumbledore, the white wizard who is apparently the most powerful in the wizarding world, is in the UK. These have greatly restricted the development of the London Temple.
As the "Grand Steward" in charge of the finances of the London Temple, Master Bophilli's position is not as coveted as in other temples.
On the contrary, everyone in the London Temple had to pay for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the huge financial pressure made Master Bophilli miserable every day.
There is less and less time spent on studying magic. In recent years, he does not expect to improve his strength, as long as he can ensure that he does not regress, he is content.
Over time, under his influence, the temple guardian Master Freeman, who was originally jealous of evil, became more irritable and irritable. Only the two of them knew the economic situation of the entire temple, and the psychological pressure they endured can be imagined. Know.
This is why when they heard that Li Fei could earn 648 pounds in three days, sparks almost appeared in the eyes of these two people, and they might even be able to open a portal by turning their eyeballs in circles.
Good guy, Li Fei was thinking that he didn't come to the London Temple to study. He just came to the London Temple to help the poor!
In the afternoon, under the reluctant gaze of Master Bophilli, Li Fei followed Master Freeman's footsteps and stepped into the portal to Kama Taj.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see the hall in Master Gu Yi's mansion, where Li Fei was accepted as a disciple by Master Gu Yi very hastily yesterday.
Thinking about it afterwards, maybe Master Gu Yi had already talked to her in advance, but because her time was more precious, she set back this time and used the saved time to do big things?
Otherwise, how would she know what gift he was going to give her? The power of the time stone of the prophet is really powerful.
Today, Gu Yi changed into a simple linen clothes. Although it looked extremely simple, it was extremely convenient for movement.
"It seems that today's course will have combat content." Li Fei thought to himself.
"Thank you, Master Freeman." Gu Yi nodded to the old mage, and the old mage turned and left after saluting.
Only Gu Yi and Li Fei were left in the entire hall.
Smiling and handing over a cup of tea, Gu Yi asked Li Fei in a relaxed tone: "Can you guess what I will teach you in the first lesson?"
Li Fei, who had already prepared the draft in his mind, began to memorize the text:
“I guess you’re going to ask me what magic is, what magic is, what the true meaning of magic is, what the occult is, and what is our purpose in this world.
Most seniors would say that only by understanding these can you be qualified to learn advanced magic and combat skills. "
Gu nodded, then shook his head again.
"Zhang Yuan is a good boy. I didn't expect that you would become his grandson by accident. The most important thing is that he didn't ask you to learn the magic of controlling beasts. I am very pleased about this.
Of course, he didn't ask you to change your surname to 'Zhang' and call you 'Zhang Fei' from now on. I didn't expect this. "
Li Fei complained in his mind about the term "Zhang Fei", Master Gu Yi, you are so naughty, does Liu Bei know.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Gu Yi slowly shaking his head:
"But it's a pity that what you said can be left to be discussed later.
After all, I don't need to deliberately embarrass students like other teachers to facilitate management.
Although Zhang Yuan's talent is pretty good, I think Li Fei's future will be far broader than his, so I can teach you more additional knowledge. "
Ignoring the second half of the sentence, Li Fei's heart was suddenly attracted by Gu Yi's words, "A future that is far broader than him."
Can he really surpass his grandfather who is already almost invincible in his heart?
"Bang." Li Fei was hit on the head by Gu Yi with his fan bone.
Li Fei looked up and saw, "You Gu Yi, you hit me with the fan I gave you. Is this really reasonable?"
"Listening carefully is the first prerequisite for you to surpass Zhang Yuan."
Gu Yi said as he waved his hand, a portal appeared out of thin air at the feet of the two of them, where Li Fei could not see, and teleported the two of them to a bustling market.
An aunt was holding a small baggage and came to a stall that said "High Price Recycled Gold Jewelry".
The aunt said that someone in the family was sick and needed money urgently. Could you please tell me how much this gold bracelet is worth?
The businessman took out a small mat, politely asked the aunt to sit down, picked up the gold bracelet and looked at it. He said that there were many impurities on the gold bracelet that affected the weight over time and needed to be cleaned first.
The profiteer spoke sincerely, and since the aunt was in urgent need of money and didn't understand anything, she naturally let the profiteer do what she wanted.
As a result, when the cleaning was completed, the vendor said that the gold bracelet was not pure enough and needed to be burned with fire.
In less than half an hour, Auntie's gold bracelet experienced several disasters: "water regia stole the gold", "fire deformation", "cut to reduce the price", "ghost scale steals the weight", and in the end she just held it with no money. At half the value he left the stall dejectedly.
(Fire deformation and shearing are normal operations, there is nothing wrong with them, and they do not affect the recycling value of gold and silver. However, if there are unscrupulous traders who bargain on the grounds that the deformed items are worthless, this is pure deception.)
Upon seeing this, Li Fei was about to stop the lady, but he was blocked by Master Gu Yi.
"Don't worry, look down."
The profiteer who had made another fortune wanted to call it a day and go back to his hometown to do more regular business, so he took a fancy to a shop that was for sale in his hometown.
Yes, it's not a transfer, it's not a leasing, it's a sale. It's a real business for sale. It clearly says "Transfer of prosperous shop, private property with property rights".
After happily paying the money, the court seal came before the decoration was completed.
It turns out that this underlying business is a debt-forfeited house, a legendary "foreclosure house". Now at least half of the money that the profiteers deceived over the years has been wasted.
Profiteers who lost large sums of deposits could only rush back to their old bank and "recycle gold and silver" in another city.At the same time, I was looking around for a position as a jewelry appraiser, hoping to find a job temporarily.
Huangtian paid off, and finally at a dinner party, the profiteer asked a friend to introduce him to a generous entertainment boss.
The boss was very talkative. After a few words, the profiteer wanted to make the boss his confidant. In the end, the boss promised to "recruit with high salary" and gave him an almost unimaginable high salary.
As a result, only half a month later, this kind-hearted "big boss", who claimed to be his "confidant" and brother, ran away.
Because this so-called big boss only needs a profiteer's appraiser qualification certificate to "pass the water" for a batch of B goods.
The frustrated profiteers can only suffer a loss, and naturally they will lose this month's salary.
At this time, the brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time suddenly contacted the profiteer. Depressed, he quickly invited his friends out to dinner and chat in person.
My friend said "I'll be there soon", but the profiteer was left waiting in the hotel for two hours.
The waiter who refilled the tea looked at the profiteer with a different look, thinking that he was just here to get free tea.
After all, the brother was here, and the profiteer hurriedly told his brother about the suffering he had experienced recently, and asked for comfort.
After ending with "What on earth have I done to end up with so many bad things?", the brother who listened to all his words said with an embarrassed expression:
"Well, I'm contacting you today. It's my brother. I'm a little short of money recently. Can you lend me some money? I'll pay it back in two days."
Needless to say, the answer is that the next day after receiving the money, the brother disappeared into the sea of people and has not been heard from since.
The profiteers had no choice but to go back to their old business and start from scratch to build a business again.
But this time, he met a woman who came to the city to work, and soon the two fell in love and got married.
After several years of hard work, the profiteers have accumulated a small amount of savings, and their lives are getting better and better.
Just one night, the profiteer was brutally murdered in an alley by a gangster on his way home after socializing with friends, trying to steal a pack of cigarette money.
The police quickly arrested the suspect, who unexpectedly turned out to be the brother of the profiteer's wife.
As a family member of the victim, the wife of a profiteer came forward to forgive her biological brother, and from then on she lived with her family again with the inheritance left by the profiteer.
Until one day, when my daughter-in-law's mother was helping her daughter sort out the belongings left by her uncle, she accidentally discovered a photo of her uncle when he was young.
At that time, the profiteer was still very thin and wore a big gold chain.
My mother-in-law will never forget that day even after she dies.
If that day, the profiteer could be less greedy and just give him a few hundred yuan more, his husband would not die.
If the old man had not died, his daughter would not have gone out to work to earn money, and his son would not have learned to smoke to relieve his sorrow.
All this is like a cycle, retribution comes too late, it can only be said that although it is late, it has arrived.
After seeing all this, Li Fei couldn't calm down for a long time.
Gu Yi put his hand on Li Fei's shoulder. For some reason, Li Fei shivered subconsciously.
It was as if deep down, I felt that something very scary was about to happen to the hand on my shoulder.
"Powerful spells are suddenly important, but as a mage, you must have a wise heart.
You need to learn to be detached and able to jump out of the situation, so that you can see everything clearly.
Now please think about it, the key point of the whole thing is his greed for money.
The incident of the gold bracelet is the [starting point] of everything.
Generally, when any major event occurs, there will be as few as one or two or as many as a dozen [starting points].
A small amount of leveraging [key points] will lead to changes in the future.
But the [starting point] is completely impossible to change. No matter what method you try, the result will not change.
I hope you can remember this sentence:
[The general trend is irreversible, only small things can be done. ]"
Listening to Gu Yi's narration, Li Fei felt that his horizons had been expanded once again.
Don't think that having two lives means you must have vision and experience.
Some people always think that 30 years old in the previous life, plus 11 years old in this life, equals 40 years of experience.
He muttered, "I can't stand it anymore for a 40-year-old man to still do such **(intelligence)** things" and so on.
However, in fact, in the first life: when you are 20 years old, your mind begins to grow. Even if you are almost [-], you are still a baby.
Second life: He couldn't do anything before he was ten years old. Li Fei also waited until he was eleven years old before he started to show off his talents.
In his previous life, he was an ordinary person. In total, he had a ton of experience in this magical world. At most, he was good at studying and taking exams.
This kind of analysis of events across timelines is completely different from the "script killing" and mystery novels played in previous lives, and the relationships involved are even more confusing.
"Now do you know why I didn't ask you to alert the lady who sold the gold bracelet?"
Li Fei saluted respectfully: "I understand. Thank you, Teacher Gu Yi, for reminding me."
Gu Yi shook his head: "No, you don't understand."
Li Fei raised his head. The closed loop of this incident has been completed. Are there any key points that he has overlooked?
Master Ancient One spoke slowly: "At the end of this story, the businessman's child will gradually grow up in the future.
He is Master Bophilli of the London Temple. "
Li Fei's eyes widened.
"We have to broaden our horizons to avoid making bigger mistakes."
Today's class is over.
Back at his residence, Master Bophili from the London Temple always felt that the way Li Fei looked at him was a bit rude.
Looking back on what he saw today, Li Fei felt deeply.
The five biggest lies in life: "Repurchase at a high price, transfer a prosperous shop, hire with a high salary, be there immediately, lend me some money and pay it back tomorrow."
These are useless in front of the ancient master.
If you want to become a [Supreme Mage], you must look higher and see further.
This is the first lesson Master Gu Yi taught me. ——Supreme Master·Li Fei
