Chapter 37: Chapter Thirty-Three: Fengqing Alley

Translator: 549690339 |

Fengqing Alley starts from the north of Linfu Street and goes straight south to the bank of the Xiling River. It boasts eight alleys that crisscross in all directions, each of different widths, and situated in a particularly complex terrain. Among the eight alleys, one is called Qingqu Lane, and at the end of it lived a craftsman.

The craftsman arrived in Xiling over a decade ago and settled down in

Fengqing Alley, living off his craft.

The craftsman had no legs and relied on a specially designed wheelchair to run his stall, selling a variety of goods that appeared valuable but were incredibly cheap, including jade ornaments and paintings.

“I made these myself, they’re not valuable.” Whenever someone mistook the items on his stall for real masterpieces, the craftsman would respond in this manner.

But in such a poor neighborhood, how many people could afford to buy fake items to please others? As a result, the craftsman led a life of poverty.

Until a group of local hooligans found him.

“Since you’re so skilled, help us make some fakes!”

How could an invalid refuse such a demand from a gang of thugs? So, the craftsman became known as Zhang the Faker.

Zhang the Faker was incredibly skilled, whether it was jade ornaments or paintings, he could replicate them with an uncanny accuracy of ninety percent, often fooling even his customers.

With his extraordinary craftsmanship, he was finally able to improve his living conditions and even managed to win over an old courtesan from the Tianxiang Building, who was experienced in all forms of music.

Zhang the Faker felt quite content with his life.

He had a house with two courtyards, a charming old courtesan, and a caretaker. He had successfully established himself in Fengqing Alley.

Fang Han admired the craftsman and would have become a craftsman like Zhang the Faker if he hadn’t gone to learn martial arts.

Zhang the Faker had even considered taking him as an apprentice and passing on all his skills, but it was a shame that Fang Han had bigger ambitions in sight.

And so, they parted ways and became memories that each other would rather forget.

But today, these two individuals, who had cut ties from each other, reunited once again.
