Chapter 48

Wang Gang actually said the words about Wu Kun taking out 100,000 yuan half-jokingly. He was truly angry that his wedding had been delayed, but he didn't really consider the 100,000 yuan a big deal. He now worked for a foreign company with a monthly salary of over 20,000 yuan, and he had nothing to worry about. Wang Gang didn't take the money seriously at all.

Of course, Wang Gang didn't get his job through his own abilities; everyone knew what he relied on.

However, this didn't count as bribery. I work, and you pay me; it's only natural. Wang Gang wasn't short of money; he just wanted to teach Wu Kun a lesson.

Especially after hearing his father's warning, Wang Gang wasn't someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. He knew what his father's position required him to avoid.

When he saw Wu Kun's shop on fire, he couldn't help but feel extremely pleased. This was truly retribution.

"Wang Young Master, how could I? This flower shop is the result of over ten years of hard work. How could I set fire to my own place? Young Master Wang, I've lost everything now." As Wu Kun spoke, tears streamed down his face. Complaining about being broke was something every boss knew how to do, and Wu Kun was particularly good at it. At first, his eyes were just moist, but as he continued, he became more and more emotional, wiping his nose and tears, almost affecting Wang Gang's emotions as well.

"How did the fire start?"

"I don't know, but the firefighters said it could have been caused by an electrical switch, or a lighter explosion, or even arson. The firefighters weren't sure."

Wu Kun was about to say that his neighbor heard an explosion before the fire started, and the firefighters suspected it was caused by a lighter, but he couldn't say that. Saying that would clear Wang Gang's suspicion. He had a sudden idea and thought he should drag Wang Gang into it. This might make the young master feel guilty, and perhaps he could get his debt forgiven.

"Damn it, don't you dare say such things! What do you mean by arson? You're framing me!" Wang Gang had a strong political sense. As soon as he heard Wu Kun mention arson, he immediately realized that Wu Kun was suggesting that he had sent someone to set the fire because he had offended him.

This inference was unacceptable. His father had warned him yesterday not to go too far, just to make a point. Today, the flower shop owner was hinting that it was retaliatory arson. How could Wang Gang not be nervous?

"You old man, I'm warning you. Saying such things can get you into legal trouble. I didn't come here for money. Seeing your shop burned so badly, I was planning to forgive the 100,000 yuan. If you keep saying this, I'll definitely demand the money, and we'll go to court if necessary!"

In fact, after listening to his father Wang Youde, Wang Gang had already decided to forgive Wu Kun the 100,000 yuan. First, he didn't need the money. Second, his father's career was the most important. Third, seeing a well-established flower shop burned to this extent was indeed tragic. Wang Gang didn't know that Wu Kun's main asset, the greenhouse, had not been damaged; it just looked bad from the outside.

When Wu Kun heard Wang Gang say he would forgive the 100,000 yuan, he was pleasantly surprised. As a commoner, he knew the principle that the people should not fight with the officials. In today's society, without a strong backing, fighting with officials was a dead end. Hearing Wang Gang's words, he was overjoyed, "Young Master Wang, are you serious? I also feel that the firefighters' words can't be fully trusted. How could it be arson? We deal with happy events and never make enemies. Who would want to take revenge on us? They must be lying, absolutely lying!"

"That's more like it. You've brought this upon yourself. Forget it, forget it, I don't want the money. Take care of yourself!"

Seeing that his intimidation had worked and his anger had been relieved, Wang Gang didn't want to continue the confrontation. He waved his hand and got into his car and left.

......

After Old Ye and Tang Zhendong returned, they prepared the Taishan stone and the God of Wealth, planning to bring them to Wu Kun the next day. Since Wu Kun had already paid, it was best to give him the stone and the God of Wealth as soon as possible. Otherwise, Old Ye was worried that Wu Kun might change his mind after the fire, and the business would end up in a loss.

Tang Zhendong was also anxious, but not about whether the fire would bring prosperity to the shop. He was worried that Wu Kun would be discouraged by the fire and give up on his business, which would delay their rise to fame.

While Old Ye and Tang Zhendong were anxious, Old Ye received a call from Wu Kun. Wu Kun's voice was very excited and emotional, "Master Ye, Master Ye, you are truly amazing, and so is your disciple Master Tang. I feel that my luck is about to change."

When Wu Kun heard that Wang Gang decided not to pursue the matter, he was greatly relieved. Although he had lost about 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, including the renovation costs, his greenhouse, the capital for his comeback, was still intact. Compared to the 100,000 yuan Wang Gang had demanded, Wu Kun had actually saved 20,000 yuan. He immediately thought of Old Ye.

Because Old Ye and Tang Zhendong had just finished their consultation, the fire happened by chance, burning his shop to the ground. Although Wu Kun was still a bit confused, he felt that he had gained something. This fire had indeed brought prosperity to his shop, just as Master Ye had said.

This was a turning point in his business and his fate. Wu Kun was willing to believe that this turning point would eliminate the bad luck that had followed him.

Wu Kun had long forgotten that the phrase "fire brings prosperity to the shop" was said by Tang Zhendong, not Old Ye. He now firmly believed that his luck was changing, and Old Ye and Tang Zhendong had become masters in his eyes.

A true master must have extraordinary skills. Compared to the well-known master Wu Kun had previously consulted, who had asked for 20,000 yuan and then saw him being extorted by Wang Gang, Wu Kun didn't believe that the master had any real talent. He must be a fraud.

But this time, Wu Kun truly felt the magic of Master Ye and Master Tang.
