This is a true story, a legendary story, an unbelievable story.
A down-and-out man who couldn't read a single character became a fortune-telling master famous in both political and business circles, all through the methods he worked out himself.
Many things are impossible to explain, but they really happened.
The fortune-teller was my great-uncle, a member of the Li clan, and about the same age as my father.
Are you Lily? Misplaced it!
