Chapter Five: The Wooden Sculpture Hidden in the Wall
"Son-in-law? What son-in-law? Where did I get my son-in-law?" Lin's father was so frightened that he quickly dropped the check. He glanced at the poorly dressed young man in confusion, and then looked at Lin Qianqian, who was half-exposed outside, "Qianqian,
You...you have a private life-long commitment to this person?"
He didn't know how to describe Zhao Fan at the moment. His daughter's vision was too unique.
Lin Qianqian had an innocent look on her face, "Dad, he was the one who stalked our family and said you would welcome him. Even Uncle Wang couldn't stand this rogue master."
At this time, Uncle Wang walked into the living room, went straight to Father Lin and whispered: "Brother Lin, that young master is named Zhao Fan. He is straight-talking and extremely capable. The only thing I don't understand is his name."
I will be your son-in-law."
"Oh?" Father Lin looked at Zhao Fan.
Mr. Liu was annoyed. He didn't receive the check and was ignored again. He decided to make a sense of his presence and slapped the coffee table again, scolding: "How dare you speak so brazenly even if your teeth are not straight, and you still call me a broken painting?
If you can easily reverse the decline of the Lin family, I, Liu, will just put the shit basin on your head!"
Zhao Fan said with great interest: "Is this true?"
"True, truer than gold!" Mr. Liu laughed angrily: "But you have violated the rules of our industry. If you can't do it, do you know what to do?"
Zhao Fan spread his fingers and waved at the former, "At that time, you can just pick one and cut it."
This is an unwritten rule. No matter whether you are really capable or a charlatan, you will not tolerate someone trying to ruin things. If the latecomer cannot prove that his methods are better than those who came first, he will have to cut off his fingers.
To correct the atmosphere.
In fact, this is reasonable. If we compare with the past, the shame of those who came first will not be washed away, which is equivalent to ruining their jobs and making it difficult to continue to work in this industry.
As the saying goes, a Buddha relies on his gold, and a man relies on his clothes. Mr. Liu was right that Zhao Fan was young and so poor, what ability could he have? Most likely, it was to please Haikou, whom Lin's father praised.
Father Lin quietly took a sip of tea and chose to acquiesce. What if this young man could really reverse the downward trend?
He was able to build up the weak Lin family to become one of the top families in Jiangbei City, and his character was by no means simple. Zhao Fan, who was currently inexplicable, dared to recommend himself, and even his brothers who wanted to recruit him praised him, which shows that this person is not as simple as he seems on the surface.
Moreover, when he invited Mr. Liu today, he did not fully believe it, it was just a try.
"I wonder how Master wants to change my family's situation?" Father Lin pondered for a moment and asked, "If you need anything, just ask and I will cooperate fully."
"Yes, bring me a hammer first, a small one will do." Zhao Fan said calmly.
"hammer?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, why do you want a hammer? Who do you want to hit?
Mr. Liu's heart couldn't help but feel in his throat. He was afraid that the beggar would get drunk if he couldn't afford it. He was weak and couldn't beat him with his hands.
"Are you so nervous? I just broke a hidden Feng Shui situation." Zhao Fan was a little confused, what kind of look are these?
Mr. Liu was relieved and said with a scornful smile: "Young man, have you watched too many Hong Kong movies? Are you the only one who has broken the Feng Shui rules? I have been immersed in metaphysics for many years, and my practice is so profound that it scares you to death, but you haven't discovered anything about this house.
Where do I need to use a hammer?"
Father Lin said to Uncle Wang with reservations: "Let Ah Bao go to the tool room to get a small hammer."
Uncle Wang picked up the phone and pressed a few times. Not long after, a burly bodyguard brought a hammer. Zhao Fan took it in his hand and weighed it before walking to the yard, "You guys can come together."
The Lin family's father and daughter, Uncle Wang, and Mr. Liu stood up one after another and followed Zhao Fan to the door of the house.
"Everyone just watch quietly. Don't interrupt during the process, otherwise it will be inappropriate." Zhao Fan put down the hammer, raised his left hand to touch the courtyard door, and took out the ancient compass he carried with him with the other hand. He was serious.
He lowered his head to analyze while making gestures, and moved sideways.
Finally, he stood under the wall three feet and seven inches to the left of the courtyard gate, and without moving any further, he took a stone and drew an "X" ten centimeters above the ground.
In fact, Zhao Fan was just pretending, because when he entered the yard before, he discovered that the feng shui pattern of the Lin family house was supposed to be "welcoming wealth and gathering treasures", so he opened his eyes and looked around, but he faintly sensed that the overall pattern looked like a dew.
There is a big hole, so that wealth cannot be gathered, and no matter how much money flows in, it will continue to pour out along the hole.
Not only did the Wealth and Treasure Gathering Bureau not play its due role, it actually turned into a money leakage!
Zhao Fan quickly discovered that the invisible "hole" was located at the location he marked now. The reason why he went through the cumbersome steps was not that he took off his pants and farted, but that people like this, so as to build momentum
, appearing professional in the eyes of others will make you more convincing.
Zhao Fan put away the ancient compass, picked up the hammer again, and said, "The source of the Lin family's decline lies within it, and I'm going to start smashing it."
"Really here?" Lin Qianqian couldn't help but ask.
Mr. Liu smiled disdainfully and said: "You are young, but you are always pretending to do the same thing. Haha, we will see how you end up when your skills are exhausted."
"Noisy." Zhao Fan's majestic momentum rose in vain, and he glanced at him with burning eyes.
"What kind of look is this..." Mr. Liu's heart trembled, and he instinctively took three big steps back on his feet before falling to the ground, breathing heavily. That look actually made him
Aroused in fear, it was like facing a huge creature that could not be provoked.
Father Lin nodded in his mind, "This boy is indeed an extraordinary person."
Zhao Fan looked away, took a deep breath, and took out the hammer in his hand.
"boom!"
The wall cracked, and then another hammer hit it, and it completely shattered. A hole appeared, with a diameter about the size of a hand. The sky was a little dark at this time, and it was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly.
Zhao Fan waved to everyone, and soon, everyone gathered near the hole in the wall.
Father Lin said solemnly: "I remember when Shenglong Mansion was first built, I bought it, decorated it, and moved in, but I didn't even know that this part of the courtyard wall was hollow."
"Brother Lin, now you have seen with your own eyes how powerful the master is, right?" Uncle Wang stared at Mr. Liu with an unfriendly look and said, "On one hand, he used the compass to figure out where the clues were, and on the other hand, he directly negotiated the price with the painting.
By comparison, it is clear at a glance who is true and who is false.”
Mr. Liu finally panicked when he saw this. Did he hit an iron plate? But he pretended to be calm and retorted: "I just found a hole. I'm trying to fool you. What does this have to do with reversing the decline of the Lin family?"
"Mr. Liu, have you ever heard of the saying that if there is no coffin, there will be no excrement basin? What really caused the Lin family to go downhill was not the hole, but the objects inside." Zhao Fan said as he put his hand into the hole in the wall, and then took the
When he came out, he was holding an exquisite and small wooden carving with his five fingers.
This wood carving is of an ancient carriage, so lifelike that even the mane on the horse's neck has clear texture.
The person driving the carriage was not dressed as a coachman, but a woman with a pointed face and a slumped cheek.
However, when it was taken out, the horse's head was facing outside the house.
"Master...this is?" At this moment, Lin's father was extremely anxious. He had already looked at Zhao Fan with admiration. He never thought that a truly capable master would take the initiative to help the Lin family. How lucky is this?
Zhao Fan didn't know what was placed in the cave in advance, but when he saw this wooden sculpture, he knew it clearly. He thought for a moment and then said: "This thing is called a carriage to pull money. Even though it is small, it can
Change a family's wealth. Originally, if the carriage faced the house, and the main body's Feng Shui pattern was the icing on the cake, it would be difficult to make a fortune. However, just imagine what would happen if the carriage faced outwards.
?”
Father Lin couldn't hold his breath no matter how deep the city was, "Master, are you saying that someone is obstructing this, ruining the good feng shui of the house, and using this carriage wood carving to draw out my financial resources, making me poorer and poorer as time goes by?"
Lin Qianqian and Uncle Wang knew the stakes and listened quietly without saying much.
"This is just one of them. With the power and industry of the Lin family, just a small carriage will definitely not be in the current situation of straining the muscles and bones and losing money, but..." Zhao Fan pinched the driver of the wooden carving.
The woman pulled it hard and it came off. He turned her back over and faced everyone's eyes, "Look at what words are engraved on the back of her clothes."
"One is Ma and the other is Shi."
