Chapter 608: The Taoist Wujizi
The eldest son of the Bai family nodded repeatedly: "Dad! That money seems to be a lot, but what can we do if we can't produce the goods? Let's focus on the case at hand! Get the contract for the reservoir and develop it. In the future, we can make money even if we don't have time to do anything."
Bai Lao Er agreed with his elder brother's idea: "Yes! We should stay out of Li Wangding's affairs. Mule can't even find the Hua family by himself, so what's the use? He keeps relying on us for help, what's he doing?
All talk and no action? Dad! Let's not count on that mule. If we want to find Li Wangding, can't we find him ourselves? Why do we have to bring him along to play? "
Mr. Bai looked at his two sons, sighed helplessly, and with his head lowered, he told the truth: "The Li King Tripod is the symbol of the royal family of the Li Dynasty. Mule wants to restore the Li Dynasty, and he must find the bronze tripod to be justified. If we contribute, we can also get a share of the pie.
Think about it yourself, is it more interesting to be a member of an aristocratic family or to be a high-ranking leader of a country? Although our Bai family's ancestors were also from the Li Dynasty, they were a remote branch and had no influence at all.
If we can restore the Li Dynasty and gain a foothold, it will be a great honor for the Bai family."
After he said this, Bai Lao Da and Bai Lao Er fell silent.
The position of a country's leader is still very attractive, but the question is whether Mule has the fate to restore the Le Dynasty?
"Grandpa! There's no need to rush this matter. Let's think about how to keep Dingsheng going!" Bai Qide used to think Bai Yangfan was a good guy and liked him for a while.
The woman ignored him and gave up. Not long ago, I heard that Dingsheng's CEO was her man, and I also heard that Dingsheng's current success was all due to that woman's ideas.
Bai Qide felt uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.
He vowed to push Dingsheng into the mud and teach that woman a lesson, letting her know that looking down on him, Bai Qide, would lead to her death.
The line of girls who wanted to marry him could circle Kyoto, so why did Bai Yangfan look down on him?
No matter what method is used, as long as Dingsheng can be defeated, it will be fine. Let them suffer a defeat first, and then when there is a chance to do the same to them in the future, they must be trampled under their feet and killed.
Old Master Bai looked up at his grandson and said unconcernedly, "The matter on the mountain is simple. In a couple of days, I'll ask that old Taoist to perform a ritual to make the things in the well in the backyard go there to scare the old couple guarding the construction site."
Bai Qide shook his head: "Grandpa! Intimidation alone is useless, we have to make some noise. Just tell the old Taoist that he can only use magic to urge the person in the well to go. Whatever happens has nothing to do with him, and it will all be the fault of our Bai family.
I just don't believe it. If the couple at the construction site died tragically and it was reported, would the top management of Dingsheng still be able to sit still?
Let's find someone to spread the word that place is not clean. Once the rumors start, I guarantee they will be eager to get rid of this hot potato immediately.
As long as they're eager to sell it, our chance has arrived. Not only can we get that Feng Shui treasure land back at a low price, but we can also do a face-saving project to show the great benevolence and righteousness of our Bai family."
Old Master Bai: “…” This move of his eldest grandson is quite clever, but I don’t know whether the descendants of the Bai family will suffer retribution in the future.
Boss Bai: “······” The boy is efficient and decisive in his work. Not bad, he looks like the one who will take over the Bai family in the future.
Bai Laoer: “······” This nephew is too cruel and ruthless. He is really not suitable to be in power.
According to his idea, if we destroy Dingsheng, we can take over the mountain next to the reservoir? What a joke! Is the CEO of Dingsheng just a useless person?
Thinking of this, he immediately stood up and retorted: "Dad! It's better not to act rashly on this matter. Lu Jingheng is not someone you can easily mess with. Once he finds out the slightest clue, it will be no joke."
Touching his almost completely white hair, Mr. Bai pondered for a moment and felt that what the second son said made sense.
Lu Jingheng is a retired soldier. Logically, the Bai family should treat him with courtesy.
If you trick him and he doesn't find out, it's fine. But if he finds out, you'll have to be prepared to pay the consequences.
"You guys go back first! I'll think about this again." Old Master Bai waved his hand and let his son and grandson leave.
Bai Qide didn't want to leave. After his father and second uncle left, he came back and sat in front of the old man: "Grandpa! When a man does something, he can't drag his feet. He has to cut the Gordian knot and hit the target with one strike.
I know you are concerned about Lu Jingheng's identity, but that was in the past. Now he has retired and is a businessman like us.
Furthermore, our methods of plotting against him are subtle and invisible to the average person. By the time he figures it out, we'll have already gotten what we were meant to get. What can he do to us?
Looking for a chance to sneak back? That depends on whether he has someone in his corner. If not, he'll just have to swallow the loss. If he does, our people aren't pushovers either. What do you think?"
After saying that, Bai Qide left. When he reached the door, he turned around and looked at Old Man Bai meaningfully.
He understood what his eldest grandson meant, which was to tell him not to be soft-hearted or hesitant.
Their methods are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. They are so strange and unpredictable, and very difficult.
Ordinary people would only think that the place was filled with negative energy, and that such a situation would only occur if they provoked something they shouldn't have provoked.
Even if someone thought of it, they might not be able to invite experts to fight against the Bai family.
Therefore, he could rest assured and let the old Taoist help him with this matter.
only······
Will the Taoist priest agree?
Standing up, Mr. Bai slowly walked to a secluded house in the backyard, pushed open the door and quickly closed it.
There was no light in the room, only a candle was lit. The dim candlelight was scattered everywhere, giving people a gloomy visual effect.
Old Master Bai sat down on the only stool and his eyes fell on the old Taoist who was sitting cross-legged, making seals with his fingers and muttering to himself.
The old Taoist was the one he protected during those turbulent years. His Taoist name was Wujizi, and he was the chief disciple of the Sanqing Taoist Temple.
He originally had a master, who passed away five years ago.
Wujizi didn't want to go back to the Taoist temple, so he lived in the remote courtyard of the Bai family to practice, and at the same time protect the Bai family from invasion by external evil.
Qinghuai and Bifang also knew that there were powerful people in the house who they could not resist, so they did not dare to get close to check, for fear of being beaten to ashes.
Wujizi was about fifty years old, with graying hair, tied into a bun on top of his head, which was supported by a chopstick. He didn't have a Taoist hat, but he was dressed neatly in Taoist clothing.
The person looks very thin, as if he eats one meal and skips the next, and is obviously malnourished.
There was only a bed, a table and a bench in the room, nothing else. It was very empty.
Wujizi, who was meditating on the bed, opened his eyelids and saw Old Master Bai. He stopped moving his mouth and asked calmly, "Master Bai! You're here? What do you want to talk to me about?"
