For a moment, the three of them looked at the empty room in silence.
"Master, can you help perform a ritual for her?"
Ding Yun suddenly asked.
Seeing Wei Mian and Chen Dapeng looking at her at the same time, Ding Yun felt a little embarrassed.
"I think this matter is somewhat related to our Dapeng. Now that she is gone, I want to perform a ritual for her—"
"No need for that. Since her soul has been scattered, there is no next life. Even if the ritual is performed, she will not be able to enjoy it."
Wei Mian said lightly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Ding Yun's eyes turned red.
At first she did blame the female ghost, but later when she understood the whole story, she realized that she was also a poor and infatuated woman, and she couldn't help but feel sad.
"Why is that Feng guy so inhuman? Wuwu——"
Chen Dapeng felt helpless looking at his sentimental wife, so he stepped forward and held her in his arms.
It was already three o'clock in the morning. Wei Mian refused the Chen couple's request to stay and made an appointment with them to visit the small building tomorrow. Then he packed up and left.
There are many infatuated men and women in ancient and modern times, and there are even more people who lose their brains once they fall in love. Wei Mian thinks the term "love-brain" is very appropriate.
Regardless of gender.
The two communities were close to each other, so Wei Mian didn't need anyone to send him off. He dragged his tired body and walked alone on the streets in the early morning.
It was already May. Although the greenery in the community where Chen Dapeng lived was not as good as the one near the small Western-style building, it was still pretty good. She practiced her skills while walking, absorbing vitality from the flowers, plants and trees in the community.
When I returned to the small building, I was no longer tired.
————
As Chen Dapeng and his wife had said before, they personally visited the small building that afternoon.
When they found the small Western-style building according to the address given by Wei Mian, they were shocked but also felt it was natural. There seemed to be nothing wrong with such a great master living in this place.
Chen Dapeng lived nearby, so he had naturally heard about how dangerous the haunted building was, and he felt even more awe for Wei Mian.
In addition to the 500,000 yuan in hard work fees that he transferred to Wei Mian on the spot, Chen Dapeng also brought a box of ancient jade.
He knew that Wei Mian wanted to find this thing, so he asked a friend to get a few pieces for him. They were all old jades, and one piece was a raw stone that his brother-in-law got for him.
"This is a small token of my appreciation."
In fact, the jade in this box is worth more than 500,000, but Chen Dapeng is just that kind of person. When he doesn't trust you, giving you 10,000 is too much, and when he trusts you, giving you 1 million is not enough.
Actually, he wanted to give more, but he had bad luck some time ago and a lot of cash was tied up. Now the only things he could move were the things in the store.
"To be honest with you, Boss Chen, I do need jade. I want to carve a few jade talismans. At least they will be easier to preserve than those made of talisman paper, but I won't need so much in a short time."
Wei Mian Ke didn't intend to take it for nothing. She picked out two pieces that could sense spiritual energy from the box and pushed the rest back.
One of the two pieces is the uncarved raw stone that Chen Dapeng mentioned, and the other is a Hetian jade seal.
Whether in the past or in the present, Hetian jade is not considered a precious jade, unless it is top-grade.
This piece of Hetian jade is not top-grade. It looks snow-white without a trace of other colors from the front, but when you turn it over, you can see large white dots on one corner.
Seeing that Wei Mian seemed to be quite interested in this Hetian jade seal, Chen Dapeng hurriedly introduced it.
"I didn't want to take this one. You see, it looks pretty good from the front, but when you turn it over, there are large pieces of cotton inside. This kind of jade is not good and can't be sold at a high price."
Afraid that Wei Mian didn't understand, he specially explained what cotton was.
"The cotton is the white crystal inside. It looks like white dots to the naked eye. Too much cotton will affect the cleanliness of the jade."
"It's just that this seal is quite large. I thought if you could use it, I could ask someone to help cut off the back half so that the top part would be a whole piece."
This is a seal from the Qing Dynasty, and the name engraved on it is Wang Hejin. When Chen Dapeng collected it, he also checked a lot of information and found that it has nothing to do with the painter Wang He.
So the value of this thing is not that great.
Wei Mian didn't mind the cotton inside the Hetian jade. She just thought the jade was nice. Feng shui masters and ordinary people have different perspectives on jade.
The owner of the jade must have been a kind person in his lifetime. He often played with this seal in his hands, and it was also contaminated with some merits. Wei Mian could feel the faint spiritual energy on it.
"Just these two bucks! Boss Chen, please calculate the price. I can't take it for nothing."
Wei Mian put the two pieces of jade he liked aside and looked at Chen Dapeng calmly.
"This is said to be a gift for you——"
The two of them refused for a while, and finally Chen Dapeng rubbed his hands and made his request embarrassedly.
"Master, how about this: once you have your amulet finished, how about selling it to me?"
Wei Mian looked at Chen Dapeng with a half-smile, "Then Boss Chen is at a disadvantage!"
Although Wei Mian's protective jade talisman is rare, these two pieces of jade are not cheap. What's more, Chen Dapeng said he wanted to buy it, so Wei Mian didn't want to let him suffer a loss.
So he must have something to ask for when he said this.
Chen Dapeng knew that he could not hide his thoughts from Wei Mian, but he did not want to just interact with her this once.
After everything was settled last night, he had other thoughts. Thinking of the shops on the same street that had cooperated with the Feng Shui master, he gradually developed the idea of establishing long-term relationships with them.
"I would also like to ask the Master to cooperate with me. You can sell your talisman paper, jade talismans, and magical instruments in my shop. I won't charge you a penny. How do you think?"
Don’t think that Chen Dapeng is losing money by helping Wei Mian sell these things for free. What is more important to him is his connections.
For example, Zhiyuanzhai has become the largest and most famous store on Fengshui Street because it sells things that other stores don’t have.
There are quite a few people who believe in this thing, especially those who can come to Feng Shui Street.
If Wei Mian's talisman paper was sold in his antique shop, buyers would naturally be satisfied with the quality, and the number of transactions would increase.
Chen Dapeng believed that even if he could not become a restaurant as great as Zhiyuanzhai, he could still become one of the top ones on Fengshui Street.
Wei Mian remained silent, thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
In fact, the condition proposed by Chen Dapeng was dispensable. Wei Mian had never lacked money in her previous life. Even if she lacked money in this life, she could live a good life with her own strength.
But no one would complain about having too much money, especially when it is such a time-saving and labor-saving method.
She also draws talisman paper on a regular basis. As for jade talismans, she sells them if she has them, and doesn't sell them if she doesn't have them.
Thinking of this, Wei Mian simply nodded and agreed, "Sure, you don't have to take nothing. Boss Chen wants to contribute his manpower and effort, so I naturally can't let you work for free. How about 30% of the money as your reward?"
Wei Mian was already very surprised that he agreed to Chen Dapeng, so he didn't dare to ask for any remuneration. He quickly refused. The two of them went back and forth, and the remuneration was finally decided to be 20% of the transaction price.
