âMaster, these are the jades you asked me to look for. I donât know if it suits your wishes.â Zhang Wu respectfully handed over a big box containing 50 to 60 pieces of jades. Some were jade bracelets, jade pendants, and some were original jade stones that havenât been polished.
Zhang Wu knew that his wealth was about to dissipate, and so he didnât feel distressed at the moment. Lin Qingyin said that 24 jades were enough, but he bought twice as much in one breath, in fear of unqualified materials would delay their business.
Lin Qingyinâs eyes lit up when she looked at a box full of spiritual jade. She stroke them one by one: âIf I solve your problem, you donât need to pay me, but can you give me the rest of the jade?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Fatty Wang became a little anxious when he heard those words. He made an effort to winked at Lin Qingyin. Running a business like this shouldnât make a deal like this. She should ask him to pay. In the end, the Little Master was still too young. She can definitely earn a lot of money by solving such a big problem.
Zhang Wu was a person who has been in the business for many years. He understood Fatty Wangâs meaning, and so he immediately promised: âMaster, you can rest assured. No matter how many jades remains, I will pay you.â
Seeing that Fatty Wangâs expression eased a lot, Zhang Wu bitterly smiled: âIâm going to go bankrupt soon, so Iâve spent the money I earned. To be honest with the two of you, I moved all the funds that my family can mobilize yesterday. I talked to the bank and told them that I plan to buy a huge amount of insurance for my wife and parents and save a trust fund for my daughter. So even if I go bankrupt later, I have nothing to worry about.â
Fatty Wang admired Zhang Wu, and so he gave him a thumbs-up: âYou are really good at taking advantage of the loopholes.â
Lin Qingyin picked up a piece of jade and put it into the tortoiseshell, then said with a faint expression: âThere are so many things in the world that can be taken advantage of. The more assets you embezzle, the more things you have to pay. You have to consider it yourself.â
âI thought about it!â Zhang Wu touched his forehead and smiled: âI used to be wild. I thought that as long as I become rich, I could sacrifice everything else, but I realized that I was wrong when I lost my son. Why do I make so much money? Isnât it to make my family live well? How can I do the opposite and exchange their health and happiness for my money?â
Zhang Wu sighed and stretched out his hands to wipe his face: âThese are what I owe them, and this is the only thing I can do for them. If I say regret it, I regret not meeting the little master earlier. Otherwise, my son will not die.â
Zhang Jianguoâs eyes, who were sitting in the co-pilot, reddened. He turned his head to look out of the window and said with a trembling voice: âWhatâs the use of regretting it now? Just drive!â
Zhang Wu knew that the person his father hated the most was him. After all, even he couldnât forgive himself. It was because of his greed and obsession that his son lost his life in his teens.
Unfortunately, itâs too late to regret it!

It only takes an hour to get to Shanbo Province from the city on the highway. Zhang Jianguo sat in the co-pilot and looked out the window silently, seemingly not wanting to chat. Lin Qingyin held the tortoiseshell with her eyes closed but actually helping the tortoiseshell to absorb the spiritual energy in the jade.
Seeing this scene, Fatty Wang knew that he couldnât talk to anyone, so he took out his mobile phone and opened his WeChat silently. Aside from the Wechat group he made for appointments, he also made a traditional cultural exchange group, which he filled with strange health knowledge and fake titles such as âshock the worldâ or âHurry up and look, it will be deleted soon.â After reading his post a few times, he felt his group would be deleted soon, not because of feudal superstition, but because of spreading rumors.
Itâs really hard to bring customers to this business!
Time passed by, an hour later, the off-road vehicle got off the highway and went straight to the suburbs. They drove another hour before reaching the barren mountain.
At this time, it was summer, there was no grass on the barren mountain. Even the birds didnât bother to pass by. Fatty Wang has been running a fortune-telling stall for so many years. So although he has no real talents, he has read a lot of crooked books. He looked at the barren hills full of sand and asked Lin Qingyin: âMaster, this is the legendary place called without any vitality, right?â
Lin Qingyin nodded her head, then turned around, and gave Zhang Wu a thumbs up: âItâs not very easy to find such a poisonous place.â
Zhang Wuâs face reddened in embarrassment. But faced with Zhang Jianguoâs glaring eyes, he couldnât defend himself: âMaster Wang didnât tell me that this was a deserted land. He only said that this is a fierce place. As long as we moved our hand a little, we can make fortune with this placeâs fierce energy.â
Lin Qingyin clicked her tongue twice and looked at Zhang Wu. She shook her head and said: âIn fact, your original life is not bad. You only need to work steadily and diligently for a few years. Although you will not be as rich as you are now, your life will be better than ordinary people.â
After shaking her head, Lin Qingyinâs eyes once again fell on his face: âItâs a pity, a man whose heart is not content is like a snake which tries to swallow an elephant!â
Zhang Wuâs face reddened even more. He didnât dare to say another word. He put out a big bag from the trunk, which contained various supplies.
The ancestral grave of the Zhang family was on the top of this barren mountain. The wind was very cold. Sooner or later, the children of the Zhang family will be in trouble. Not only Zhang Wuâs son and daughter, but even the descendants of Zhang Jianguoâs cousins will be affected. After all, their familyâs ancestors were buried here.
Lin Qingyin walked around and saw four identical buildings not far from the mountain. There was a sword-like decoration on the roof of the building. The sword tips were all pointing towards the Zhang Familyâs grave, adding a bit of more anger to the originally bad Feng Shui.
Lin Qingyin called Zhang Wu over, pointed her finger to the decoration on the building, and asked: âDid you build those buildings when you moved the grave?â
Zhang Wu nodded pitifully: âMmm. Master Wang said that these buildings represent gold, and four golds can improve wealth.â
Lin Qingyin was amused by this unbelievable remark. Zhang Wuâs face turned pale. Even if he was stupid, he knew that this sentence was only made up by Master Wang to fool him.
