Chapter 144: Borrowing Luck Formation
Since we can’t tell anything from the face, there are only three places left: the company, home, and the ancestral grave.
"Of course, it's going to be hard for Miss Jiang." Old Meng certainly wanted it. At first, he didn't believe it because Jiang Hanyan was young and beautiful, but this girl revealed the secret of his divorce as soon as she opened her mouth.
He didn't tell anyone about this, not even Zhou Yi knew about it. It was obvious that Jiang Hanyan was really capable. Old Meng was convinced and began to have some hope.
Maybe this Miss Jiang can really save him?
After the meal, Zhou Yi hurriedly paid the bill, and everyone went to Lao Meng's company together. He started the company early and made a lot of money over the years and also made other investments. The company did not have much working capital, and other investments could not be made in a short time, which led to the current deadlock.
"Several projects I invested in have gone wrong. I was optimistic about them at the beginning and they would definitely make money, but they went wrong. I invested all my money, otherwise it wouldn't be like this now."
When they arrived downstairs at the company, Lao Meng led them upstairs. He was very regretful that he should not have put all his money into investment. He also had a few houses, which he planned to give to his wife. After all, she would raise the children. And if he didn't give them to his wife, he would lose those houses if the company went bankrupt.
"Your luck... is really bad." Zhou Yi couldn't help but say.
"That's right, I don't know which god I offended, oh!"
Lao Meng grabbed his hair anxiously. He would never understand why he died. It was like he had seen a ghost.
His company was located in an office building in the city center, with an excellent geographical location. Jiang Hanyan walked slowly and looked around. Lao Meng had rented a floor of the office building, which was quite luxurious.
His office is also very luxurious, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows throughout, offering an unobstructed view of the city view of Shanghai, which is particularly nice.
There were money trees and some feng shui formations in the office, and there were no major problems. Jiang Hanyan walked around them all and found no problems for the time being. Lao Meng and Zhou Yi were all looking at them nervously, their breathing becoming rapid.
"Miss Jiang, is there something wrong with me?" Lao Meng asked in a low voice.
"I haven't found anything yet. I'll go look somewhere else."
Jiang Hanyan's voice was very soft and slow. After hearing it, Lao Meng's emotions stabilized immediately and he was no longer so anxious.
"This is the staff office, and this is the warehouse."
Lao Meng introduced several houses one by one. Jiang Hanyan looked at them and thought they were all right. Then they came to an office with a sign hanging on the door, indicating another company.
"Isn't this your company?" Jiang Hanyan asked.
"It's a company of a friend of mine. He rented my office building. It's not the same type of business, so it doesn't matter." Lao Meng said.
This friend of his used to be very unlucky, losing money on everything he did. He almost jumped off a building. This year he found him and said he would rent him an office to start a stationery business. This office happened to be vacant, so Lao Meng agreed.
"When did your friend come?" Jiang Hanyan asked.
Lao Meng thought for a moment and replied, "About three or four months ago."
"Open the door, I'll go in and take a look." Jiang Hanyan pushed the door and locked it.
Lao Meng hesitated. "This is someone else's company. Isn't it inconvenient?"
Zhou Yi poked him and said, "We're not taking anything, so let's just go in and take a look."
"OK."
Lao Meng went to get the key, but the door wouldn't open after trying for a long time.
"Did you take the wrong one?" Zhou Yi asked.
"Impossible, this is it, why can't it be opened?"
Lao Meng turned the key again in confusion, but it didn't move at all. He really couldn't open the door. He felt depressed. His friend had changed the lock without saying a word and without even saying hello.
This office was said to be rented, but in fact he didn't collect any rent, and he didn't have much money. This friend was poor at the time, and said he would pay the rent when he made money, but he didn't have the courage to ask for it. Now the locks were changed behind his back, and he felt uncomfortable.
"Let me do it!"
Jiang Hanyan pushed Lao Meng away and rummaged through her bag. In fact, she took out a thin wire from the space. This was her weapon, a good thing for her to make her way in the world.
The thin wire was inserted into the keyhole, and after a few gentle pushes, the door opened.
Lao Meng and Zhou Yi opened their eyes wide, feeling like they were watching a movie. It turns out that such miraculous skills really exist in real life.
Jiang Hanyan pushed open the door and turned on the light. The office was brightly lit and quite simple, with only two tables and a very old computer. It looked like a slum, not a company.
"How is your friend's business?" Jiang Hanyan asked.
"Not very good, neither dead nor alive."
Every time Lao Meng saw that friend, he would complain, saying that business was difficult and that famine was about to hit. He had been extremely busy during this period and had no time to care about his friend. He didn't know how his friend was doing.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Jiang Hanyan smiled, opened the drawer, and found two brand new cigarettes. Then she opened the cupboard and found a few bottles of Maotai. She smiled and said, "Your friend really knows how to enjoy life."
Lao Meng's face sank. This friend cried poor in front of him every day, but secretly smoked Huazi and drank Maotai. He lived a more carefree life than him and didn't pay a penny for the rent. He had seen through this friend's character and decided to ask him to pay the rent tomorrow.
Jiang Hanyan walked to the desk and carefully looked at the Feng Shui formation on it. Most people would not be able to recognize this formation, but it was recorded in Grandpa Lu Chen’s notes. It was called the Borrowed Luck Formation.
As the name suggests, it means borrowing other people's luck. If the formation is placed in the southeast direction, it can borrow the good luck of the luckiest person nearby. This office happens to be in the southeast direction of Mr. Meng's office, and Mr. Meng is the luckiest person, so he has been extremely unlucky in the past three months.
What a true friend!
"Miss Jiang, what's so special about this thing?"
Mr. Meng's heart was in his throat. Jiang Hanyan stared at the bonsai on the table for a long time without saying a word, which made him feel uneasy.
This bonsai is very beautiful, with pine, cypress, rockery and flowing water, which makes it very elegant.
Jiang Hanyan smiled slightly, pointed at the bonsai and said, "Your friend is not simple, what is his name?"
"His surname is Pan, and his name is Pan Wuyi." Old Meng's heart skipped a beat, and he thought of something, staring at the bonsai.
Could it be that his bad luck in the past three months has something to do with this bonsai?
"Mr. Meng, I can solve your problem, but I want three hundred thousand. Give it to me after your company starts to improve." Jiang Hanyan said bluntly.
She wasn't asking for too much. The person who could make this bonsai must be a powerful figure. If she helped Mr. Meng solve the problem, she would offend that powerful figure. Three hundred thousand was not a high price to ask for.
"Okay, as long as my company makes progress, I won't lose a penny." Lao Meng agreed readily.
Not to mention three hundred thousand, he would even pay one million.
Jiang Hanyan smiled, took the ashtray, and smashed it at the bonsai. Of course, she didn't smash it casually, but there was a reason for it. She was smashing the rockery, which was the key to Feng Shui.
