Chapter 331 Come quickly!
Murong's bedroom is actually a large suite, with a reception room in the middle, a bedroom on the right, and a gym on the left.
After he took me on an observation tour, he brewed a large pot of tea, poured me a cup, and refilled the tea for Shao Youxiang and himself. His first words were: "Teacher Wan, come out and work."
Shao Youxiang said, "Yes, come out and do it."
Murong was afraid that I would hesitate, so he said, "You are currently making 150,000 per month, which is 1.8 million per year. I promise that if you find a master, I will give you 2 million at a time."
I smiled.
Murong opened up. He said the Chinese communities in Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, and Hong Kong were large enough. Among the lower-class Chinese, there was no market for fortune-telling, physiognomy, or traditional Chinese medicine.
But among the wealthy Chinese, this market is huge enough. The richer they are, the more they believe in this. A mere one million yuan is nothing.
Shao Youxiang said: "In the Chinese community in Myanmar, a thug with only an elementary school diploma can earn more than you. I won't talk about how he made his money, but the house he built in his hometown cost at least 20 million. As for cars, three or four luxury cars are standard."
Murong said, "Mr. Chen gives you 1.8 million a year, and you have to go to work every day and manage the Taiyi Temple. Mr. Wan, if you come, I will be your agent. After a year, your annual income will exceed 10 million.
This house will be your daily base. I've assigned a chef, a bodyguard and driver, and a maid. You'll live here on a regular basis."
Shao Youxiang said, "The richer a person is, the more anxious he lives. As the saying goes, if you want to sleep well, you have to rely on being poor. You really should get out."
The two of them took turns working on me.
I said, "Let me think about it."
Murong said, "What are you thinking about? There's no need to think about it. As long as you're willing to stay, you don't have to worry about anything. You can live here normally. It's almost the same as back home. If something happens, we can fly to Vietnam, Myanmar, or Thailand. When we're done, we can fly back."
If you still find it inconvenient, just ask Sister Tao to come over. It’s easy to get Laotian citizenship.”
I said, "Of course I'd like to have more money, but after all, I still have my parents at home."
Shao Youxiang said: "It's very convenient to fly back and forth now. Laos is a permanent residence. You can go back anytime you want, and come back anytime you want."
I gave a wry smile. "Let me think about it. Right now, I absolutely cannot let any word leak out. After all, Mr. Chen has done me a favor. I can't just leave like that."
Murong Feng said, "Okay. Mr. Wan, let me ask you one more question. Why do you think Mr. Chen can't invest?"
"Feel."
"Feeling?" they both asked.
I nodded and said, "For example, everyone has intuition, but mine is stronger than others. This intuition is based on existing knowledge."
"Then help us analyze it." Shao Youxiang said.
I nodded and first gave them a detailed introduction to the Eight and Nine Cycles and the corresponding relationship between the celestial bodies and the Earth. Then I said:
"We are in the last four years of the Eighth Period, which is associated with the Earth element and represents a decade of prosperity for the real estate market. In another four years, we will enter the Ninth Period, which is associated with the Fire element. During these years between the Earth and Fire elements, I always feel it's not advisable to invest, as this is interspersed with the Year of the Rat."
I wrote on a piece of paper: 1840 (Year of the Rat) – 1900 (Year of the Rat) – 1960 (Year of the Rat) – 2020.
I pointed to a few numbers and said, "Every 60 years, there's a Year of the Rat. Go check what happened before that. And what's coming next? I'm a little worried."
"What's going to happen?" they both asked.
I shook my head.
Murong said, "Oh. Anyway, you still made up your mind to come. I didn't predict the word 'come'."
Everyone laughed.
Shao Youxiang said, "I won't see you off tomorrow. I'll be leaving for Vientiane tomorrow morning. From there, I'll fly to Vietnam to discuss business with a Chinese woman. Could you help me predict the fortune and see if this deal will be successful?"
He wrote the word "Bei".
I smiled and said, "Sure. The original meaning of '贝' is oysters and clams. Pretty simple."
Suddenly, I thought of Beth and asked, "Why did you choose the character 'Bei'?"
Shao Youxiang said: "My client is called Beth, a Chinese woman, but she has an American name and has lived in the United States. I don't know anything else about her, she was introduced to me by a friend."
"Oh." I didn't say anything else.
Mr. Chen and Secretary Ma spent the morning looking around. At noon, we had lunch at a restaurant called "Shui Zhi Yun." Then, Chen Xiaozhen drove us to Xishuangbanna.
Mr. Chen didn't mention whether to invest or not. Along the way, we talked about some interesting travel stories. This trip south didn't seem to be very pleasant.
Mr. Chen and I were unhappy on the inside, even though we appeared to be communicating happily. But Mr. Chen stopped talking about Boten. I knew that in his heart, my fortune-telling was just a reference. As an entrepreneur, he couldn't always agree with me.
Three days later, we returned to Upstate and life went on as normal.
And my heart was filled with waves.
Murong Feng called me and said, "Teacher Wan, I just want to say two words—come quickly."
I thought about it for a few days and it was time to talk to my family and Mr. Chen.
What will be the ending, how big a storm it will stir up? To be honest, I don’t know.
