"Chang Wen, this is the feng shui master I found." Before Old Ye could respond, Shen Fuhua quickly said, "But how did you also find one?"

Although Shen Fuhua, Qian Changwen's mother, was a layman in the feng shui business, she could easily tell the man's profession from the tools he carried and his attire.

Qian Changwen made a gesture to lower his voice, "Oh, this is Master Dade, a famous feng shui master from Haicheng City. Master Dade is well-known for his feng shui techniques."

"Oh, these two are," Shen Fuhua hadn't finished speaking when Qian Changwen interrupted her, "Mom, please take the guests inside for some water first. I need to finish talking with Master Dade, okay?"

"Sure, sure." Shen Fuhua didn't continue speaking and led Old Ye and Tang Zhendong into the house.

Tang Zhendong noticed the uncertain look in Old Ye's eyes. Clearly, he had heard of the famous feng shui master Master Dade from Haicheng. However, in the current situation, it was like competing for food with Master Dade, and it was clearly not the time for reminiscing or building relationships.

However, Tang Zhendong sneered at this so-called Master Dade. "You don't even know how to use a compass, and you dare to call yourself a feng shui master? Nonsense!"

"Master Ye, please sit, and this young master, please sit as well. By the way, what should I call this young master?"

Shen Fuhua asked while pouring water for the two of them.

"My name is Tang. Thanks, big sister." Tang Zhendong took the water Shen Fuhua handed him.

After pouring the water, Shen Fuhua began to talk about how her son asked her to find a feng shui master, "Sigh, so many things have happened in our family. Many people say it's a feng shui issue. If it were an illness, why did all these things suddenly happen together? It's clearly not logical. But my son Qian Changwen is an atheist and didn't believe in this. He asked me to find a feng shui master to take a look. I've been searching for a few days, and I finally found you. But I didn't know my son also found one. I feel quite embarrassed."

"It's fine, it's fine." Old Ye waved his hands.

Shen Fuhua continued to chat with Old Ye about family matters, and Old Ye subtly asked about the family's situation without leaving any trace. If Tang Zhendong didn't know Old Ye's character, he would have thought Old Ye was just chatting with Shen Fuhua. But in reality, Old Ye obtained a lot of information, and Shen Fuhua didn't notice at all.

When Shen Fuhua shed tears, Old Ye also had a teary-eyed expression. The more Old Ye acted this way, the more Shen Fuhua felt like sharing. She not only told Old Ye about the strange things that happened in the past two years but also talked about many things about her son Qian Changwen and her daughter Qian Wenmei.

"Mom, I'm back." Qian Changwen opened the door.

"Did you send the master away?" Shen Fuhua asked.

"Yep," Qian Changwen came over and sat down opposite Old Ye, "Master Ye, may I ask if you are from this area?"

"Hehe, I live in the southern part of the city, and I am a native of this place."

Qian Changwen's question immediately made Old Ye look at him with new respect. As a boss of a large company, he asked a simple question that hit the key point.

Many feng shui masters nowadays are frauds who seek fame and profit. If they are from out of town, they might move to a new place after cheating people and taking their money. But if they are from the local area, they would have to think twice before cheating locals. Although Haicheng is not a small city, it's still possible to run into someone on the same planet, let alone in the same city.

Moreover, the tone Qian Changwen used when asking this question subtly carried a warning. Although Shen Fuhua didn't notice it, Old Ye and Tang Zhendong did. There was no explicit warning in his words, but the tone conveyed that meaning.

"May I ask how many years you have been in the feng shui business?"

"I started halfway through my life, so I haven't been in the feng shui business for very long, maybe ten or eight years. I can't remember the exact time."

Tang Zhendong knew that Old Ye had doubled the time. The longer the time, the more experience and fame one should have. However, Old Ye had no reputation in this field. He was a street vendor, far from being a real feng shui master. The partnership between him and Tang Zhendong was just starting, and they had no reputation. But Qian Changwen, as described by his mother Shen Fuhua, was not someone who understood this field. Since he didn't understand it, Old Ye could present himself as a feng shui master with many years of experience and significant achievements, and Qian Changwen wouldn't see through it.

When Qian Changwen heard that Old Ye had been in the feng shui business for so many years, he immediately felt a deep respect. The feng shui master Master Dade, whom he had asked a friend to find, had only been in the business for a dozen years. Moreover, Master Ye looked older than Master Dade. Although his attire wasn't as refined as Master Dade's, his demeanor was indeed that of a wise man.

"Oh, we've had some issues recently," Qian Changwen detailed the strange things that had happened in his family to Master Ye and Tang Zhendong.

In fact, the level of detail Qian Changwen provided was far less than what his mother Shen Fuhua had shared, but for Old Ye, despite having heard it once, he still listened carefully when Qian Changwen spoke.

The first quality of a feng shui master is to be calm. Master Ye was very calm, listening attentively. This had two benefits: one, he could compare what Qian Changwen said with what his mother had said; two, he could think about how to deal with and resolve the issues Qian Changwen described.

Just as Qian Changwen finished speaking, the door opened, "Mom, I'm back!" A young and beautiful girl entered.

"Meimei is back. Oh, Meimei, this is Master Ye, and this is Master Tang." Although Shen Fuhua didn't talk much, she treated Old Ye and Tang Zhendong with more respect than her son Qian Changwen.

"Master Ye, this is my daughter Wenmei."

Old Ye nodded to Qian Wenmei as a greeting. Qian Wenmei also greeted Old Ye and Tang Zhendong and then sat down next to her mother Shen Fuhua.

Qian Wenmei had just graduated and started working when a series of events happened in her family. First, her father fell ill and passed away suddenly, then her mother was diagnosed with uremia, and she herself was diagnosed with breast cancer. These events happened one after another, almost driving Qian Wenmei, who had never experienced such hardships, to the brink of collapse.

Since she fell ill, she had resigned from her job and was undergoing treatment while traveling to different places to relax. She had just returned from a trip to relax. Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
