Chapter 475: Feng Shui Precious Land
Is there anyone living towards the north?
Isn't that just...
Chen Ci looked at the direction of the smoke, which was the direction of Longcheng. This is what is meant by "populated areas", right?
Shen Yuzhen understood the first half of the sentence, but what about the second half?
"What does it mean to have Yujian facing south?" Shen Yuzhen asked.
"There's a river facing south," Chen Ci explained.
Yujian means river water.
The so-called living close to mountains and water, water has always been an important factor that cannot be avoided in Feng Shui.
Wan Hu nodded: "Yes, it is the river."
"Then...is there one?" Shen Yuzhen turned her head.
But with limited vision, how can we see that far?
"Yes." Master Yu said, "I used a compass to look for it. There is a river behind this mountain."
"So it's done?" Shen Yuzhen was shocked.
Chen Ci, however, remained calm and walked quickly to Master Yu and asked respectfully, "Master, is it feasible to build a cemetery on this hilltop?"
"That's feasible." Master Yu didn't beat around the bush. He turned around and pointed to a patch of guanyang trees at the top of the mountain. "Those guanyang trees need to be uprooted."
The so-called Guanyang wood does not refer to a type of tree, but a class of trees. Trees like poplar, birch, shrubs, elm, etc. all belong to the Guanyang wood category.
Wan Hu then spoke up, "East of Guanyang, there are evil creatures. If you want to build a cemetery, you can't see Guanyang trees."
Shen Ci nodded in understanding.
"One more thing." Master Yu looked at Shen Ci.
Shen Ci quickly responded: “You say.”
"I used the compass to locate the location. There are mounds of graves on this hilltop, which means there are indigenous people here. If you want to demolish and rebuild, you have to inform them first."
"What?" Before Shen Ci could speak, Shen Yuzhen exclaimed, "Someone buried someone on this hill? This hill belongs to us, it's private!"
Master Yu smiled and said, "But this hilltop has obviously been abandoned and unguarded. How would you know it's privately owned?"
"That won't work either. Digging a grave and burying someone else's body without permission is illegal," said Shen Yuzhen.
"You can talk about the law with people, but can you talk about it with the dead? If you forcefully demolish it, be careful of..."
"Master, please stop talking. She's timid." Chen Ci quickly interrupted Master Yu and asked cautiously, "Just tell me what to do? Is it troublesome?"
"No trouble, I'll just perform the ritual and prepare some good things for them. Living people and dead people are the same. As long as the benefits are given, everything will be easy to talk about."
Shen Ci nodded and turned to see Wan Hu had already started packing up.
"Master, is this the end of this?" Shen Ci asked subconsciously.
"Well, it's not a big deal. It's just that there are so many scammers in society these days. If they don't have any real skills, they'll just make up some fancy things to fool people."
Shen Ci understood and felt that what Master Yu said made sense.
Going down the mountain, Master Yu was still carried down by Wan Hu, but Chen Ci and the others followed more easily, after all, going down the mountain was much easier.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Master Yu and his disciple drove away without saying a word.
Shen Ci blinked in surprise, and then said: "No, I haven't paid yet."
"Aci, do you really want to build a cemetery?" Shen Yuzhen was still struggling with this issue.
While sending a message to Boss Su, Chen Ci replied, "Since the Feng Shui has checked and there's nothing wrong with it, then tell your grandfather that I want this mountain. Whether it's a living person or a dead person, it doesn't matter whose money I make."
Moreover, at present, the price of a cemetery is even more expensive than a house, so this business must be profitable.
"But aren't you afraid of bad luck?" Shen Yuzhen whispered, and suddenly felt a chilling sensation behind her.
Chen Ci squinted at her: "Unlucky? What kind of unlucky?"
"It's just... a dead person."
Chen Ci shook his head gently and said softly, "Every ghost you are afraid of is someone that others miss day and night but cannot meet."
With just a few words, the cold feeling on Shen Yuzhen's back disappeared instantly.
She stared at Chen Ci blankly, and suddenly felt that her whole body was glowing and full of divinity.
“Aci, you…oh…” Shen Yuzhen was a little annoyed by what she had just said and done, because she was completely baptized by Shen Ci’s words.
Shen Ci couldn't help but laugh at her reaction: "Don't feel guilty, it's normal to be afraid of ghosts, just like being afraid of dogs and heights, and these fears should be respected because they are weaknesses, and everyone has weaknesses."
"Then what is your weakness?" Shen Yuzhen asked subconsciously.
Shen Ci blurted out: “Maybe she’s just too beautiful.”
Shen Yuzhen rolled her eyes, and Shen Ci smiled and said, "Family."
Shen Yuzhen nodded in understanding. She had met Shen Ci's family. Whether it was her mother, brother or sister, they were all very wonderful people.
Chen Ci turned around and looked up at Mount Li in front of him, and said sincerely: "I will build this place beautifully and give the deceased a beautiful place to rest and rest."
Su Zheyuan's message followed: "I forgot to explain this to you earlier. This is the rule for inviting Master Yu. There's no fixed price. You can pay as you see fit. Don't think of it as a reward, but as a gift to honor Master Yu."
The word "filial piety" was a bit harsh, but Su Zheyuan's next message immediately dispelled Shen Ci's discomfort and made her respect Master Yu.
"After all, Master Yu is already a hundred years old this year."
"How old are you?" Shen Yuzhen's eyes almost popped out.
Shen Ci was also shocked.
Although there are many people in this world who live to be a hundred years old, Master Yu looks to be in good condition.
"No wonder he needs someone to carry him up and down the mountain. I'm a little puzzled seeing that he can walk but still needs someone to carry him." Shen Yuzhen muttered.
Shen Ci pursed her lips, and believed even more in all of Master Yu’s words and deeds today.
"Then how much should I give?" Shen Ci asked Su Zheyuan.
There was no standard for how much to give, and she was afraid of offending the master without knowing it.
Su Zheyuan replied: "Whatever you want."
Shen Ci blinked, confused.
"Boss Su said this, does it mean that this master doesn't care about money?"
After all, he is so old.
Shen Ci hesitated for a moment, then used the card number Su Zheyuan provided her to transfer 100 yuan to Master Yu.
She could certainly give more, but Chen Ci felt that too much was as bad as too little. Master Yu was highly respected and was a hundred years old. She would inevitably have to ask him for advice on things in the future. If she gave too much as a gift the first time, she would probably be put in a difficult position later.
One hundred yuan is equivalent to one million yuan. It may not be a big deal for the rich people in Longcheng, but it is definitely not a small amount.
Just looking at the feng shui should be enough.
"One hundred, Ah Ci, that's a bit too much..."
Shen Ci looked at her and asked with a smile, "Are you feeling sorry for me?"
Shen Yuzhen curled her lips and nodded: "I think thirty or fifty is about right."
"How about this, when I negotiate the price with your grandfather, can you help me lower it?"
"Do I need to tell you that? Of course!"
