Chapter 111: Chapter 111: This is a Magical Duel! (Added for the 9th Alliance, Luoshui’s Yin!)
While everyone else was buzzing with excitement, Wang Hao was on the side, listening and feeling all sorts of speechless…
Do Feng Shui masters in this world really have such clout? And there are so many people flocking to take photos with him?
Before he “crossed over”, Brother Hao remembered that an average Feng Shui master would charge a few hundred yuan for a consultation. Here they’re actually talking about tens of thousands?
His words are made of gold or what?
Wang Hao had read some books on Feng Shui and fortune-telling out of curiosity before and had looked up some information. He had a fair understanding, so he wasn’t in a hurry and decided to see what Master Liu had to say!
But before Master Liu could start his performance, a Buick GL8 van squeaked to a stop right at the front door, and then people started pouring out.
These guys looked like they were from the mafia, decked out in various fashionable clothing, gold chains around their necks, jade rings on their fingers, and jackets on their backs. They entered the door and scared all the salespeople!
The leader, wearing sunglasses and carrying a briefcase under his arm, led his entourage straight to the real estate model. He looked around profoundly, then nodded. Just when everyone was waiting for him to speak, suddenly, he caught sight of Master Liu standing next to Ren Xing, and with a startled look, he quickly extended his hand and said in a genuine Beijing accent, “Hey, Master Liu! Didn’t expect to see you here. I’m Zhang Qiangdong! Hahaha, haven’t seen you in over half a year, how have you been lately?”
“Humph, not too bad,” Master Liu replied arrogantly, nodding his head, then extended his hand, “Oh, it’s Little Zhang, what wind has blown you here today?”
“I was thinking of coming to check out some houses,” Zhang Qiangdong answered as he shook hands with Master Liu, smiling, “Since you’re here, care to give them a look?”
“I charge for Feng Shui consultations,” Master Liu said indifferently, “You can’t skimp on the red envelope.”
“Oh, that’s easy!” Zhang Qiangdong immediately took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his bag and stuffed them into Master Liu’s hand, “Please accept this, Master!”
Master Liu took the money without even looking at it and shoved it into his wallet. Only then a smile appeared on his face.
Damn, is Feng Shui really this amazing in this world?!
By the way, who the heck is this Zhang Qiangdong? Quite a flashy entrance, eh!
Wang Hao quietly elbowed Ren Xing, “Fatty, what’s the deal with this Zhang Qiangdong? He seems pretty impressive!”
“I reckon,” Ren Xing said carefully after a look, then whispered, “If I’m not mistaken, given his accent and his grand entrance, he should be from the Tianjing property-flipping group!”
The Tianjing property-flipping group!
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuting’s eyes widened—The Tianjing property-flipping group was here, and that meant big business! This crowd was said not to buy by the unit, but by the floor!
“Brother Hao! Brother Hao, did you see?!” Xia Yuting was so excited that he was shaking, “The Tianjing property-flipping group! I’m sure I can sell some houses today!”
“Yep, shouldn’t be a problem,” Wang Hao agreed with a laugh, “I’ll try to help out.”
While they were talking, Master Liu began to work.
After all, since he had taken the money, he had to work hard, right?
Everyone saw Master Liu looking around the scale model carefully, then with his hands together and eyes closed, he chanted scrupulously, “Great Ancestors above, your disciple hereby boldly discusses Feng Shui; please, Great Ancestors—”
Wang Hao watched from the side, eyes wide in disbelief, “Is he summoning the ancestors for protection? Impressive!”
The crowd around them respectfully paid attention—this is what you call a real Master, such presence!
After summoning the ancestors, Master Liu respectfully took out a Compass wrapped in red cloth from his pocket!
He carefully unfolded the red cloth layer by layer, then walked around the model twice. Just when everyone was curious about what he was doing, he suddenly shouted, “Open!”
The shout echoed through the hall. Although there were only about twenty people in their group, after this shout, another thirty people immediately crowded around!
Damn, this guy is really professional!
“Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, Dui…” Master Liu held the compass, circling the building Ren Xing was interested in, and while he walked around, he murmured, “The main gate is Qian. The Kan position is six, the Gen position is heaven, the Zhen position is five, the Xun position is disaster, the Li position is extinction, the Kun position is prolonging, and the Dui position is birth. Among them, birth, prolonging, heaven, and hiding are the four auspicious positions; disaster, five, six, extinction are the four ominous positions…”
His enigmatic muttering left the crowd feeling both confused and impressed.
Beside him, Wang Hao scratched his head—had he been looking at fake Feng Shui all along?
“Twelve Spirits, not bad!” Master Liu continued his circling a while longer, periodically glancing at his compass and calculating something, followed by more mumbling, “Nine Dragons, it’s a shame, only Returning Dragon and Hidden Dragon these two…” After a while of calculating, Zhang Qiangdong listened with great interest, and Ren Xing stealthily asked Wang Hao, “Brother Hao, what do you think of his calculation?”
“I’m not sure yet,” Wang Hao shook his head, “We’ll have to see what conclusion he reaches in the end.”
At this time, the crowd watching the commotion were all expressing their admiration in a hubbub —
“See that? A master is a master; I can’t even understand the terminology he’s using!”
“Exactly, would he ask for 10,000 yuan otherwise? An expert indeed!”
The crowd worshipped the Feng Shui Master, looking at Master Liu as if he were the God of Wealth. After Master Liu had walked around the model a few times, chanting under his breath, he suddenly opened his eyes wide: “Azure Dragon and White Tiger complete, Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise guard the gate, a good house, a good house!”
Wang Hao was instantly dumbfounded!
Did this guy even know how to read Feng Shui? That’s it? And this place is considered a good house?
He had casually noticed at least five or six major Feng Shui taboos in this house just by glancing at it!
“Um,” said Wang Hao, completely on instinct, “Is this really considered a good house, Master Liu? This, hehe, this…”
As soon as Wang Hao spoke out, the surrounding noise distinctly quieted down!
Then, Wang Hao could feel all eyes from the crowd who were there for the show turning towards him!
“This is going to be a battle of wisdom; now it’s going to get interesting!”
“That’s right; the Master says the house is good, but this young man disagrees. Oh, I can’t wait to see what they’ll say!”
“I never expected to witness such a scene today; I haven’t come for nothing!”
Sure enough, as soon as Master Liu heard Wang Hao actually refute him, his face fell!
“Oh?” Master Liu took off his glasses, revealing a pair of scornful eyes, and sneered disdainfully, “I hadn’t expected this young man to oppose my view. Do you understand Feng Shui? Reading Feng Shui is a matter of experience; this young man’s age…”
With this, he chuckled coldly and shook his head, saying, “I’m afraid he’s still a bit too green.”
Zhang Qiangdong’s eyes lit up when he looked at Wang Hao, smiling and saying, “This young man says it’s not good; would you mind giving us a reason?”
Xia Yuting also became anxious, frantically tugging at Wang Hao’s sleeve, “Brother Hao, you’re my real brother; please don’t ruin my business…”
“Relax, I’ve got it all figured out,” Wang Hao reassured, patting Xia Yuting’s arm, then turned his head with a smile and fixed his eyes on Master Liu.
Damn it, he had looked down on him in the car, but Wang Hao didn’t care because he was brought in by Gao Shen, but now he was clearly spouting nonsense, and Wang Hao couldn’t stand it!
If Gao Shen didn’t believe in Feng Shui, it wouldn’t matter, but inviting someone so politely and being fobbed off ?
“Master Liu,” Wang Hao was inwardly angry, but his face did not show it; instead, he spoke with a smile, “When it comes to experience, I indeed don’t have much, but I’ve come across some of this stuff before. Just let me speak, and then you listen, and afterwards, you can see if what I say makes sense.”
He spoke and without giving Master Liu any room to refute, started circling the scale model of the house.
The potential buyers and salespeople watching all stepped aside to make room, waiting to see his explanation.
