Talent, Talent!
Wang Chen was about to say something when Li Shi Min waved his hand and interrupted him.
"Shopkeeper Wang, don't worry about it. Tell me quickly, how did you predict the future?”
"Could it be that you are the legendary extraordinary person?”
Wang Chen rolled his eyes and leaned his head towards Li Shimin with a mysterious expression.
"Old Li, if you really want to know about this, it's not like I can't tell you.”
"But you must keep your mouth shut. I'll only tell you.”
Li Shi Min was overjoyed, he patted his chest and said confidently,"Don't worry, you and I will know about this. I won't tell anyone!”
Wang Chen beckoned Li Shimin to put his ear close to him.
"Actually…"
"I am the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming!"
……
"Pa da!"
Li Shi Min was dumbfounded, and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground.
Wang Chen looked at Li Shi Min's stunned expression and immediately became excited.
"Back then, when I failed to help Han, I had no choice but to die of illness in Wuzhang Plains. I had to go through countless cycles of reincarnation with regret.”
"Thus, I inherited some of Zhuge Kongming's abilities.”
"Counting with my fingers, knowing 500 years in the past and 500 years in the future is not a problem.”
"Let's not talk about anything else. I even know that you peed your bed when you were two years old.”
"Therefore, I don't even need to pinch my fingers to know about small things like the heavy snow in the north and the drought in the east of the river.”
When Li Ergang heard that Wang Chen was the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang, he was still a little stunned.
Then, the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.
Five hundred years ago, five hundred years later…
Then why didn't you know that I'm the emperor?
Also, I have never wet my bed!
However, this was the first time Li Shimin had heard of someone who could pull something so bizarre.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he patted Wang Chen's shoulder.
"Shopkeeper, we are already so familiar with each other, there is no need to fool me with such words.”
"If you can calculate a thousand years, what kind of business do you think I'm in?”
Wang Chen was speechless.
He really didn't know about this, and he had never heard Old Li mention it before.
"Alright, alright, I'll be honest. There's no such thing as the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming in this world, and I don't have the ability to calculate.”
"Then how did you know what happened thousands of miles away?”
Li Er wanted to know the reason.
Wang Chen refilled his glass of wine and then filled Li Er's glass as well.
"Speaking of which, I really have to rely on some ability. Actually, all of this was calculated by me.”
"I'm willing to hear the details."
Li Shi Min stopped eating and drinking, staring at Wang Chen.
Wang Chen pointed at the street outside with his chopsticks.
"Although the business of my tavern is very ordinary and you're the only big customer, the consumption of meat and vegetables is not small.”
"Every once in a while, I have to go to the Eastern and Western markets to buy some mutton and a large amount of vegetables.”
"But since half a month ago, I discovered that the number of mutton on the market has decreased sharply, and the price has also been rising.”
" You have to know that Chang 'an City consumes a lot of mutton, and the merchants in the Eastern and Western markets have a lot of reserves. This kind of situation usually doesn't happen.”
"That can only mean that there's a problem with the source of the mutton.”
"Do you know where most of the mutton supply in Chang 'an City comes from?”
Wang Chen only said a few words, but Li Shimin was completely attracted.
This sounded like a reliable answer, and the cause and effect were reasonable.
When Wang Chen asked this question, Li Shi Min blurted out,"I'm from Huaiyuan, Spiritual State."
Wang Chen immediately looked at him with a strange gaze.
"Not bad, Old Li. As expected of a businessman.”
As the ruler of a country, Li Shimin was a typical diligent official, so he naturally had some understanding of the livelihood of the people.
"Relying on the Guanzhong region to produce mutton is not enough. The place near the northern grasslands is the main production area.”
" The lack of mutton supply in Chang 'an City and the two cities means that there is a problem in the north. Since there is no war and no border conflict, it can only be because of the sudden change in the climate in the north.”
"With this calculation, you can imagine how cold the Turkic territory, which is always cold in winter, will be this year.”
"That's why I dare to boldly say that the Turks must have experienced a blizzard, so cold that large numbers of cattle and sheep died.”
"And this weather has also affected places near the border.”
……
"Hiss!"
Li Shi Min gasped and looked at Wang Chen as if he was a monster.
Talent!
This was a f * cking genius!
Based on the supply of mutton and the change in prices, he could deduce that it was snowing heavily in the north thousands of miles away.
Li Shi Min would believe that Wang Chen was the reincarnation of Zhuge Kong Ming.
It would be a waste of talent if he did not recruit such a shocking talent to be an official under him.
Unexpectedly, Li Shi Min was really surprised.
When he said that there were great sages in the marketplace, he thought that it was an exaggeration.
Now, Li Er realized that it was not an exaggeration at all. In fact, it was even more so.
Perhaps even if he pulled a few important officials around him to the market to analyze, they would not be able to deduce to this extent.
Li Er took a deep breath and forced himself to steady himself.
"Then shopkeeper, how did you analyze the drought in the east of the river?”
