Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

The next day!

Cloud Street.

Lin Fan finished selling his scallion pancakes and just lay there, preparing to do some carving. But before that, he took out his phone to look at Weibo.

He realized that someone tagged him, so he went to take a look. It was the young lady from yesterday.

When he had read her fortune yesterday, he had seen that she wouldn’t be hired. But now that he saw this Weibo post, he instantly smiled. It seemed that the carving had really been useful. It was really blessed.

But the only downside was that the effectiveness was limited. This blessed carving could only bring fortune to kindhearted people. To people who didn’t meet this requirement, it was just a normal wooden carving.

Of course, the aesthetics of the wooden carving was amazing. It completely surpassed carvings made by the current masters.

Then, Lin Fan’s hands moved as he typed a reply.

“Work hard, kindhearted lady. That wooden carving will bring you fortune.”

When some netizens saw that Master Lin was replying to a random lady, they were confused as they wondered what was going on. Could it be that a beautiful lady had drawn Master Lin’s attention?

But when they clicked on her profile, they saw that she wasn’t a beautiful lady. She only looked average but she loved to smile. She gave off a feeling that she was a good person.

“What does Master Lin mean by this? Does anyone understand?”

“I don’t understand. Is there an expert that can come and explain this?”

“Are you all stupid? It’s so simple yet you don’t understand. Master Lin gave that young lady a present that can bring her good luck. This young lady’s luck indeed became good and she got hired successfully. It’s that simple.”

“666... Master Lin came across a fan and gave her a present. That’s very well done.”

“Haha. Not bad, not bad.”

Lin Fan didn’t bother about all this. He sat there as he took out the materials and the carving knife from his drawer and prepared to start carving. He would make some carvings and store them in the storage ring that he had fished up. In the future, when he meets suitable people, he would give it to them and the task would be completed.

But to him, this task was quite hard. The difficulty was high.

Wu You Lan rested her chin on her palm as she watched him unblinkingly. “Brother Lin, are you going to start carving?”

Lin Fan nodded. “Mmm.”

He had wanted to make one for Wu You Lan. But under Lin Fan’s care, You Lan’s fate had already changed drastically. She didn’t need it at all.

Afterward, he thought about what he would carve later. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and his hands started moving nimbly.

Wu You Lan watched from the side. She suddenly realized that Brother Lin looked very good when he was serious too.

With a move of his fingers, the Encyclopedia’s mystical boost rushed out. This kind of blessed carving was very mysterious. Besides Lin Fan, no one else could make it.

*Whistling sound*

The sound was clear and crisp as the initially rectangular piece of wood gradually changed shape.

Suddenly, there were two people at the door. A middle-aged man and a young man.

They seemed to have been stunned by Lin Fan’s carving technique as they stood there and stared.

That middle-aged man, in particular, was shocked beyond words because he realized that this carving technique was too amazing. If he hadn’t seen it for himself, he wouldn’t believe it.

There were no unnecessary movements. He had never seen such skill before.

It was really too amazing.

After it was done, Lin Fan’s hands stopped. Then, he gave it a gentle blow to blow off the wooden shavings and reveal the true appearance.

“Good.”

Suddenly, that middle-aged man gasped.

Lin Fan looked up and chuckled. Without saying much, he took a closer look at the carving. It was really not bad. It had quite an aesthetic look.

“It’s vivid and lifelike. It’s as if it has a soul of its own. Master Lin’s skill is something that normal people can only dream of attaining,” the middle-aged man praised.

Lin Fan nodded. “Thank you.”

That middle-aged man liked it very much. He couldn’t help but ask, “Master Lin, how about you sell it to me? Just name the price.”

Lin Fan didn’t know who he was but this middle-aged man knew him. It was mainly because Lin Fan was way too active. The Internet was a strange place. When one reached a certain level, everyone would know that person.

Lin Fan shook his head. “It’s not for sale.”

This wooden carving was very precious. Just its aesthetics and charm were already outstanding. Moreover, it even harboured special powers.

Although it would only be useful for certain people, he didn’t want to sell it.

The middle-aged man was in no hurry. He felt that there was no problem at all. “Master Lin, just tell me a price. Anything you say, I’ll accept. I really like this carving. It’s domineering. It’s really great.”

Lin Fan shook his head. “You can’t afford this.”

The young man next to the middle-aged man was displeased. He felt that this Master Lin was being too arrogant. Then, he resisted his anger as he said, “Master Lin, you’re looking down on us. This is Uingrow Corporation, Mister Zhou Shi Ming.”

When he said that, he sounded quite proud.

Uingrow Corporation wasn’t very well-known to the public but that was because it was very low-key. The businesses under its banner were many.

Lin Fan chuckled. “Having money is useless. This isn’t something that can be bought with money. What do you two want?”

After hearing what the young man had said, Lin Fan took a closer look at this Zhou Shi Ming. Indeed, his fortune was awesome. But this had nothing to do with Lin Fan. Even if he had even more money, it would be useless.

Because wealth and social status were nothing much at all to Lin Fan.

Zhou Shi Ming was only in his middle age and he already had such accomplishments. Hence, he was quite self-confident. No matter what he faced, he had the confidence to seize everything in his control.

“Master Lin, I really like this wooden carving very much,” repeated Zhou Shi Ming. If it had been a normal person who kept on rejecting him, he would have been enraged.

But this was Master Lin. Although Master Lin didn’t have much wealth, he wasn’t someone to be messed with. Even in terms of connections, Master Lin was on par with him.

Lin Fan waved his hand. “Chief Zhou, this is really not for sale. It isn’t something that can be traded for money. Did you just pass by or do you have something to do here?”

Zhou Shi Ming saw that Master Lin really didn’t want to sell it, so he didn’t press further. He really liked it but now, there were more important things to do, so he decided not to delay any further.

“Master Lin, I have something to do. I’d like to ask for your help,” said Zhou Shi Ming, “That son of mine, for some reason, has lost the ability to move one of his legs.”

Lin Fan smiled. “Chief Zhou, if his leg can’t move, he has to go to the hospital. What are you looking for me for?”

“Sigh. Master Lin, we’ve already been to the hospital. It became fine for a while but then the problem returned. This has happened for a few times already. That’s why I’d like to invite you to take a look.” Zhou Shi Ming instructed the young man to go to the car and help his son over.

At that moment, another young man, being supported, walked over awkwardly. His right leg didn’t move at all. It was as if it was just a stiff metal rod.

Lin Fan looked over and felt strange. “What happened?”

Zhou Shi Ming’s son, Zhou Jun, had a blank face. His tone was a little rushed as he said, “I don’t know either. A while ago, after playing with my friends at a bar, I saw a dog squatted on the road, so I went up to kick it. At that time, it felt a little painful. The next day, my leg started having problems and I couldn’t move it.

Wu You Lan hadn’t been paying much attention at first but when she heard that man say that, she looked over disdainfully. The dog didn’t even bother you. Why did you kick it?

“Master Lin, please help us out,” said Zhou Shi Ming.

Lin Fan glanced at Zhou Jun before shaking his head. “I can’t treat you.”

The answer was firm and without hesitation.

Zhou Shi Ming panicked. “Master Lin, you haven’t even looked.”

“I don’t need to look. I understand it already,” said Lin Fan. With a good look, he could see what this Zhou Kun had done. He had cruelly kicked a pregnant dog to death. Even that puppy that had been in its mother’s womb had died.

This was just retribution.

Even though Lin Fan could treat him, he didn’t want to. It was that simple.
