Chapter 32
"This afternoon, we have suspended our cooperation with Jiaheng Real Estate. I would also like to tell you another piece of news. Jiaheng Real Estate currently has another project in Baisha Bay, which is designed and supervised by Wu Lianyong," said He Man.
"Why are you all willing to cooperate with Wu Lianyong?" I asked my doubts.
"Since Wu Lianyong joined Jiaheng Real Estate, all the real estate projects he designed have sold very well. It is said that his real estate can bring wealth and career, and the after-sales reviews are indeed very good." He Man said.
"He must have done something," I said.
"Even if he used some means, the people living here only care about whether he can really make a lot of money or advance his career, and they don't care about anything else. It's not like an international company like us, which needs to consider all aspects." He Man said.
He Man glanced at Zhang Song, who remained silent.
"In fact, we have investigated Wu Lianyong a long time ago and found that he was involved in several missing children cases, but the Hong Kong police have never been able to find any evidence against him." After saying that, He Man sent the information to Zhang Song.
Zhang Song's expression immediately brightened up, and he said, "Let's eat first."
Erma and I have tried almost all the dishes, and they are quite different from Guangxi cuisine.
"How about this, the three of you stay at my Sheen Hotel." When He Man said this, Zhang Song seemed a little reluctant.
"Don't refuse yet. I know you are good at fighting, but what about those two? Wu Lianyong is so successful in Hong Kong. He must have some shameful means behind the scenes, but he definitely wouldn't dare to do that to me," said He Man.
He Man was right. Zhang Song thought about it for a while and said, "Then you arrange it."
He Man's face lit up with joy when she heard what he said.
The atmosphere at the dinner table became lively, and Erma and I had a good impression of He Man. To be honest, given He Man's background, there was no need for her to be so polite to us. We were marrying above her station.
After filling our bellies, the three of us returned to the hotel. Actually, there wasn't much to pack; we had all packed light for our trip to Hong Kong. When we left the hotel, He Man's driver was already waiting for us.
When they arrived at the Sheen Hotel, He Man was nowhere to be seen. She called Zhang Song and said that she had something to do at the company and would come over when she had time.
I was a little flattered, but Zhang Song didn't care.
"Brother Song, she's got money and power, and she's a golden phoenix. She treats us like this, so why don't you always give her the cold shoulder?"
"Yes, I think Sister Man is a nice person." Erma also agreed.
"You don't understand. She is not as simple as you think." Zhang Song said.
"Anyway, just tell me whether he has any ill will towards us," I said.
"That won't happen," said Zhang Song.
"Then why do you treat him like that?" I said.
"Oh!" Zhang Song sighed.
He lay back and looked up at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Didn't Sister Man send us Wu Lianyong's information? Let's take a look," I said.
Zhang Song took out his cell phone at this time.
It was really funny to see a strong man like him take out a pink phone. When he turned on the phone, I smelled a light fragrance coming from it, which was very pleasant.
Looking at the information above, we can be sure that Wu Lianyong has done a lot of evil things.
He moved from mainland China to Hong Kong, and within just a few years, he'd risen directly to become the chief designer of Jiaheng Real Estate. Besides exploiting Zhang Yan's luck, he must have also used other tactics. Furthermore, data shows that all of Wu Lianyong's girlfriends in the past two years have suffered accidents since breaking up with him.
"How about we go and check out the real estate project he's in charge of tonight?" I asked.
Neither of them objected, so we left right away.
We took a taxi to our destination. The real estate project in front of us was newly developed, with only half the foundation laid. However, the site of this community was quite odd. It faced the sea, with the road behind it. While there was good wind and water, even a half-baked person like me could tell it wasn't built properly.
"Did you see anything?" I asked Erma.
"If Wu Lianyong were truly an outstanding architect, he certainly wouldn't have built a foundation like this. The entire community faces the sea, exposed to the wind daily. While water is living and wind is natural, the sea is different from the river; the tides rise and fall, and the wind blows and disperses. This kind of feng shui pattern won't allow for wealth accumulation. And without mountains behind, there won't be a prosperous population. Furthermore, the sea in front is like a mirror, creating a reflective sha. It can be said that those who live in this community for a long time will not only not benefit from it, but their own health will also become a problem."
Erma lowered her head and thought while saying, "I must have overlooked something wrong. What exactly is it?"
Then she began to observe the foundation, and Zhang Song and I asked her, "What are you looking for?"
"I think since everything seems unreasonable from the outside, the answer must be in the foundation," said Erma.
Now that the foundation was halfway done, we joined Erma in searching for the answer she had suggested. However, the three of us were uninvited, and the construction site was brightly lit at night, so we had no choice but to move stealthily.
After searching for half an hour, we finally found a clue. In the unfinished foundation, we discovered two illogically deep pits. Erma was lost in thought.
At this time, the workers at the construction site discovered us and drove us away.
After returning to the Sheen Hotel, we still couldn't guess Wu Lianyong's intention.
"Why don't we find all the communities it designed and take a look?" I suggested.
This is not a solution at all.
So we carefully reviewed all the residential complexes Wu Lianyong oversaw on the hotel computer. It wouldn't have been a big deal if we hadn't checked, but once we did, we uncovered a clue. The complexes he built were completely inadequate according to feng shui. But he was a Taoist practitioner, well-versed in Lu Ban's art, and he certainly wouldn't have built such a complex. However, his reputation among homeowners and industry insiders contradicted our conclusions.
This makes us confused. The feng shui is obviously very bad, but the people living in it live very well. The theory of feng shui has been passed down in China for thousands of years and it does make sense, but it is so contradictory at this moment.
"How about we go over there tomorrow and take a sneak peek?" I said.
There is no good solution now.
"It seems that this is the only way." Erma said.
"Do you want to meet with Wu Lianyong directly?" Zhang Song said.
"Do you want to alert the enemy and make him lose his composure?" I said.
"If we alert him, he will be on guard, which may cause trouble for our subsequent actions," said Erma.
"I'll just shoot him dead," said Zhang Song.
"Then wouldn't you be a murderer?" I said.
In fact, Zhang Song was just speaking angrily.
It seems that dealing with Wu Lianyong is not an easy task.
A person who has been on the run for more than ten years and was able to kill someone without leaving any evidence has indeed caused us a lot of trouble.
