Chapter 1308

The next morning.

The earliest high-speed train from Su Hang slowly pulled into Jin Ling Railway Station.

A grandfather and grandson walked out of the business class cabin. These two were the Feng Shui master Mai Chengxing from the United States and his great-grandson Mike.

Mike got off the train, helped Mai Chengxing while asking: "Great-grandfather, this time we came to Jin Ling, did you calculate a hexagram in advance to see if this trip is auspicious or ominous?"

Mike knew his great-grandfather very well. He had been seeking stability for so many years, so he had long developed a habit: as long as he went on a long trip, he would definitely calculate the auspiciousness and ominousness before leaving.

Mai Chengxing pondered: "At the third quarter of the Yin hour today, I cast a hexagram, but the hexagram this time is chaotic and disordered, with auspiciousness and ominousness each accounting for half."

"Each accounting for half?" Mike was full of astonishment when he heard this result.

He had been influenced by what he saw and heard since he was a child and also had research on Feng Shui and fortune. In fact, Feng Shui and fortune are most afraid of calculating a result where auspiciousness and ominousness each account for half, because this result is almost equal to no result and has no reference significance.

The reason why Feng Shui and fortune are sought after is that they can calculate the focus of every thing's development trend in the future.

Because the vast majority of things in the world are not really half auspicious and half ominous. There must be a gap between auspicious and ominous, but some gaps are large, and some are small.

For example, if a businessman wants to invest in a real estate project next year, a truly capable Feng Shui master will measure the degree of auspiciousness and ominousness of this project after an on-site investigation.

If it can be calculated that the Feng Shui is auspicious and the success rate is relatively high, it can let the boss boldly continue to push forward;

If it can be calculated that the Feng Shui is biased and the success rate is relatively low, it can also let him act cautiously, or even let him avoid a big pit.

However, people come to you to ask about auspiciousness and ominousness, and you can't tell them that auspiciousness and ominousness each account for half. Then what is the point of asking you to do it?

Therefore, generally, those who calculate a result where auspiciousness and ominousness each account for half have limited ability and level.

Calculating is equal to not calculating.

However, he knew his great-grandfather's ability very well. It might not happen once in decades, so he hurriedly asked: "Great-grandfather, if it really is half auspicious and half ominous, does it mean that everything in Jin Ling is still an unknown?"

Mai Chengxing shook his head: "Everything has laws. The reason for the unknown is just that one cannot see through it, so I feel more and more firmly that Jin Ling is definitely not ordinary and there must be very extraordinary people living here!"

"For us, coming to Jin Ling this time, it is possible that we won't see the true face of Mount Lu and return empty-handed; it is also possible that we will get a great opportunity; and it is also possible that we will accidentally cause a catastrophe..."

"As the saying goes, misfortune is where blessing lies, and blessing is where misfortune hides. Since we cannot see through the trend behind, if we want to get a good result, we can only do our best to do our own things. In addition, do not do anything harmful to heaven and reason. This is what the ancestors said: do good deeds, don't ask about the future."

As he spoke, he looked at Mike and warned seriously: "This time we come to Jin Ling, you must remember to be low-key, low-key, and low-key. If you encounter obstacles, proceed slowly. Do not be impatient, and do not have disputes with anyone. Do you understand?"

Mike nodded solemnly and said: "Great-grandfather, don't worry, I will definitely follow your instructions."

"Hmm." Mai Chengxing nodded slightly.

He knew this great-grandson of his very well. Although he was born in the United States, he had received national education since he was a child, was low-key and humble, and never caused trouble.

While talking, the grandfather and grandson had already walked out of the railway station. Mike asked: "Grandfather, where is our first stop?"

Mai Chengxing said firmly: "Go to Jin Ling University of Finance and Economics! Wu Wu Donghai's son had an accident there. We will start sorting out clues from there."

"Okay!" Mike hurriedly said: "Then you wait a moment, I'll go across the street to rent a car."

"No need." Mai Chengxing waved his hand, stepped forward himself, stopped a taxi, and asked: "Little brother, how much does it cost to hire your car for a day?"

The taxi driver thought for a moment: "It depends on where you are going and how far you are running. I also have to calculate the gas money and road tolls."

Mai Chengxing laughed: "I'll use the car within the city area. In a day, it will be at most one or two hundred kilometers."

The taxi driver blurted out: "Then you give two thousand yuan!"

"Two thousand?!" Mike on the side exclaimed: "Your price is a bit too black! You can't see that we came out of the railway station and subconsciously want to slaughter us!"

The taxi driver's old face turned red, and he hurriedly added: "How about one thousand five?"

Mike still wanted to speak, but Mai Chengxing reached out to interrupt him at this time and said lightly: "Just two thousand, Mike, pay."

Mike subconsciously said: "Great-grandfather, he just said one thousand five..."

Mai Chengxing said decisively: "Forgot what I told you? Two thousand, pay."

Mike was shocked, hurriedly nodded, counted twenty hundred-yuan bills from his wallet, and handed them over.

In fact, he wasn't stingy, nor could he not afford two thousand yuan, but the feeling of someone obviously slaughtering him made him a bit unable to accept it.

However, thinking that his grandfather said to have fewer disputes with others, he immediately came to his senses and then willingly took out the money.

The driver happily took the money, counted it carefully, and hurriedly said: "Two, please get in the car!"

Mike helped Mai Chengxing into the car, and he walked around to the other side and sat in.

While driving towards the station exit, the driver asked: "The two of you should be from abroad, right?"

Mike asked curiously: "How do you know?"

The driver laughed: "Who in the country would carry thousands of yuan in cash when going out? We all use electronic payments, which is safe and convenient."

Mike nodded and said: "This is indeed true. Domestic electronic payments are indeed done very well, much more advanced than abroad."

The driver said proudly: "Of course! It's a cashless society! Look, after we promoted electronic payments, there are fewer thieves than before."

As he spoke, he asked: "Where are the two going for the first stop?"

Mike said: "Go to Jin Ling University of Finance and Economics."

Ye Chen had been pondering the matter of ocean shipping from last night until now.

He also realized that this was an excellent development opportunity, but he hadn't figured out who exactly should be in charge.

Ye Chen had self-knowledge. He had read few books and knew very little about international trade, import and export trade, and foreign exchange settlement. If he were to operate this project himself, he wouldn't know where to start at all.

Therefore, to enter this industry, the primary task to solve is to find a suitable person.

Xiao Xiao Churan didn't know Ye Chen's thoughts. She came out after washing up and saw Ye Chen lying on the bed in a daze after waking up, so she couldn't help but ask: "Husband, what are you thinking about in a daze early in the morning?"

Ye Chen came to his senses and laughed: "Me? I'm pondering about starting a business..."

"Starting a business?" Xiao Xiao Churan asked in astonishment: "You want to start a business?"

Ye Chen nodded and laughed: "I have this idea, but I haven't found an entry point yet."

Xiao Xiao Churan hurriedly said: "Husband, I think you should stop considering starting a business."

Ye Chen asked curiously: "Why?"

Xiao Xiao Churan said seriously: "Our family is not short of money now. You earn a lot by looking at Feng Shui for others usually. If I can finish the project of Dihao Group, our family's money will be endless. Why go and work hard to start a business?"

Ye Chen said seriously: "But wife, aren't you working hard to start a business yourself?"

Xiao Xiao Churan sat beside Ye Chen, held his hand, and said seriously: "Husband, starting a business is indeed very hard, and it's the kind where there's no turning back once the bow is drawn, so I don't want you to be so hard either."

As she spoke, Xiao Xiao Churan sighed: "In these few years, you not only have to take care of me, take care of the family, take care of Auntie Li at the welfare institute, but also have been ordered around by my parents, and looked down upon by my parents and the grandmother's family. You've been hard enough. Now that you can finally relax, why go and start a business?"
