　　"Young man, I didn't know that your views were so… conservative. You really should consider adopting a new att.i.tude toward technology." The man at the stand said with a frown. "This is called big data, haven't you heard of it? When you go to the hospital now, do they still use the same methods to diagnose you as they did a hundred years ago? Don't you trust the results given to you by scientific instruments? I'm doing my work carefully now, that's why I'm taking the time to verify the data using my computer, and you're unhappy?"

　　"Well…" Li Yiming found it hard to rebuke the words of the man, but he could not shake off the feeling that something was off.

　　"So, any more complaints?" The man feigned irritation from not receiving respect.

　　"Please continue." Although Li Yiming could not take the man seriously, he had no doubt that there was something special about him.

　　"Was that so hard?" The man said as he picked up his tablet, subtly letting out a sigh of relief.

　　The short, obese man who scammed people as a fortune teller was originally a thug who worked a living convincing customers to visit an artifact shop nearby. One day, he stumbled upon a pole with a fortune teller's banner attached to it, and thought of it as good fun until he was stopped by a desperate man who sought his counsel.

　　The thug, having been working as a kind-of-a salesman, concocted a ridiculous story to try to get the man to visit the shop he was working for. After hearing the thug's compelling tale about a hard-working rabbit who dug for carrots, the man quickly left, but not before paying two hundred yuan.

　　The thug went home without thinking too much about the incident, until his customer came back a week later, with thirty thousand yuan and a large banner to thank him. In fact, he had been an accountant who was using public funds for private investments, and after listening to the thug's morale-boosting tale, he decided to further his investment in a desperate bid, only for his stocks' prices to rebound after a few days.

　　The thug immediately understood that this was an opportunity to pursue a newfound career, but he did not know where to start. After trying out his luck and skills at different events, he realized that all of his years spent honing his soft skills as a salesman had born fruit - being talented at noticing people's emotions was more than enough for him to make a better living than he did as a salesman.

　　"What?" The fortune-teller glanced at Li Yiming and subtly tilted his tablet so that Li Yiming could not see what was on the screen.

　　"What happened?" Li Yiming, who had been paying close attention to him, asked with concern.
