A Feng Shui Master's Guide to Cultivating Immortals
Chapter 217 No Money No Time
To be honest, this was the first time Chen Xiao met such a client with no money and no time.
Because of the high starting point, he entered the industry under the leadership of his master in his previous life, and he did business for the rich and powerful.When I came to this world, the first people I came into contact with were also wealthy businessmen.
There are only a few orders that have been made because of human relations, such as the neighbor Aunt Huang's house in the county. Such a family did not say that they could not afford to overturn the house, so he had to directly overturn the plan and start doing it.
If it was changed to the previous life, even if Chen Xiao was not angry, he would still be unhappy in his heart.
However, after experiencing all kinds of things, Chen Xiao became more mature and calm.After encountering such a change, apart from the accident, I just reflect on why this situation happened.
This is due to incomplete collection of information on Yingxian Island.
Before, Chen Xiaoguang paid attention to inquiring about the complex members of the street in front of him, and he was unwilling to build a second-story building.But it ignores that most of the houses there are old, and there are very few new houses.
This situation should have attracted his attention, which meant that the people on this street could only repair it, but they couldn't build a new house.
Yingxian Island is an island, because the lifespan of immortals is extremely long.People lived a long, long time ago, and people were able to produce for themselves.Because Yingxian Island is located in a typhoon-prone sea area, the trees on this island do not grow big at all.Even if there are stones on the mountain of the island, it is stipulated by the island owner's mansion that logging is not allowed, so as not to dig into a hollow mountain.
Therefore, stone and wood can only be transported from the peninsula, which leads to high prices of building materials.
The cost of a two-story building here is enough to build a courtyard in Hanshan City.Compared with Yingxian Island, the wood and stone in Hanshan City are almost the price of cabbage!
Chen Xiao was drawing here, while Shopkeeper Zhang was explaining to him in a low voice.
It's not that there are cheap materials on the island, but they are all local bamboo and wood used by ordinary people.Although the built houses can shelter from the wind and rain, they cannot withstand the storm. After each disaster, they need to be repaired again.
Such a weak house is not suitable for practitioners who practice all the year round and go out at any time.Therefore, practitioners unanimously choose stronger stone and wood.
Through the words of shopkeeper Zhang, Chen Xiao learned that even the bricks on Yingxian Island were imported from outside because of the material.
Chen Xiao had to sigh in her heart, as the highest local government, the environmental protection awareness of the Island Owner's Mansion is really too strong!
Limited by cost and time, Chen Xiao had much less options.
Fortunately, when Chen Xiao first saw the house of the head of the chaimen, he realized that their finances were not well off.The idea of how to improve Feng Shui if the other party is poor also flashed through my mind.
At this moment, I will turn out the plan that I thought of at that time, and then refine it carefully, and it will be done.
Chen Xiao pondered, and outlined a brand new floor plan with ink lines on the paper.
During the whole process, he only listened to Shopkeeper Zhang, while Master Chaimen held his breath and focused on Chen Xiao's pen tip.
After finishing the last stroke, Chen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Chaimen Master: "Time is short, so we can only use this to resolve the obstruction for the time being. However, this is not as effective as the previous plan."
The head of Chaimen was both happy and embarrassed. He rubbed his hands, picked up the blueprint with ink still not dry, and said in a stack of voices: "This is enough, enough! There is a buffer time, wait until we come back , according to the best drawings given by Master Chen."
Chen Xiao nodded, pointed to the blueprint and said, "The new plan is to add partitions in the corridor to divide the original long corridor into two parts. In addition, put shelves at both ends of the entrance of the living room at the end of the corridor. Two pots of flowers and plants."
Chaimen Master listened and nodded, expressing that he would fully comply.
When Chen Xiao finished speaking, he hurriedly asked: "Master Chen, I understand adding a partition, so what's so important about placing flowers and plants?"
Chen Xiao said: "This partition is added to the corridor to form a porch in a disguised form. With this, a block here can let the anger circle around, slow down the speed of dissipating, and stay in the room to some extent. Add flowers and plants in the corner, Then it can make the anger more vigorous, and has the effect of Nafu Tianji.”
After a pause, Chen Xiao said again: "It's best to set up this partition so that the bottom is solid and the top is empty. The bottom half is a wall, and the top can be multi-trap or window panes. The top is clear and the bottom is turbid, and the bottom is clear." The solid wall can block the entry of stale air, while the virtual wall above does not affect the entry of fresh air. In this way, the ventilation of each house will not be greatly affected."
Chen Xiao's consideration was so meticulous that the head of Chaimen was greatly moved.
He said: "Master Chen, I have worked so hard on you. In such a short period of time, you not only came up with a new solution, but also thoughtful and careful. I, Old Chai, really don't know what to say! From now on, as long as you say a word , I, Chai Xiong, and these disciples under my sect, will go through fire and water!"
Chen Xiao smiled, and said: "Being entrusted by others to be loyal to others, this is what I should do, Master Chaimen doesn't have to do this."
But the head of Chaimen said: "Master Chen, I am not talking in vain, I am speaking politely. This is the first time I, Lao Chai, have seen such a good-natured person like you. To be honest, if I were to change to the other chief immortal cultivators, I would As before, you have already been scolded and thrown out, and refused to communicate with you. Not only did you not get angry, but you quickly thought of other ways. I really don’t know how to repay you except for being heartbroken. "
Seeing that he was getting more and more exaggerated, Chen Ling couldn't help but feel a little headache.
It's not like I haven't met him in the past, and I was overly enthusiastic and tried my best to please him.But this is the first time after coming to the world of heaven.
People here say repayment, so they really want to repay.If you say that you are so smeared, you can really move your head off.
This made Chen Xiao a little confused, not understanding why the chief chaimen was so excited.
This is what Chen Ling doesn't understand, what he does is different from those other alchemists and weapon refiners.After an alchemist or a craftsman sells a elixir or a magic weapon, he will settle the money and the goods with the buyer.
He helped the Chaimen master resolve the hindrance, which is equivalent to exempting the people under the sect from the harm suffered by the experience and recovering unnecessary losses.
The Chaimen master's sect is very small, and every manpower is precious, and he cannot afford to lose it.Not losing one will cause a chain of adverse reactions.The benefit is great and the aftereffect is far-reaching.It's a direct kindness, and it's hard not to feel grateful.
What's more, not to mention this new plan, the previous plan has even enhanced the fortune of Chaimen Master.
I don't know the effect yet, but if it really works in the future, it won't just be paid off.It's the same as giving people a way to make money. You may have to use favors to pay back in the future.
Chen Xiao was a little embarrassed that the head of Chaimen was so grateful.
He thought for a while and asked, "I don't know when Chaimen Master is going out this time?"
Master Chaimen was employed by someone this time, so he couldn't disclose the departure time to the outside world, after all, he had to prevent someone from harming the employer.
But Chaimen Master thought about it, and told Chen Xiao anyway.They will set off in three or four days.
Chen Xiao nodded, "There is still time. I will go to Jianzhai myself and try my best to get a feng shui magic weapon for Master Chaimen to keep in his house. It can also increase the odds for Master Chaimen's trip."
The head of Chaimen was overjoyed when he heard the words, and thanked again and again.
Chen Xiao felt a little helpless, so she simply said, "It's not too late, I'm going to Jianzhai right away."
The head of Chaimen originally wanted to go together, but Chen Xiao firmly refused.Because Jianzhai might not have what he wanted ready-made, he needed to order semi-finished products and then process them himself when he came back.
Chen Xiao didn't want people to know that she knew how to make a different kind of magic weapon, so she could only dispel the idea of the head of Chaimen going with her.
Fortunately, Master Chaimen has precious time, and he still needs to make preparations for travel, and there are more urgent tasks such as building partitions and purchasing flower stands and potted plants.
Before parting, Chaimen Master took out five hundred spirit beads from the storage bag in his arms and gave them to Chen Ling with a tough face.
It turned out that Master Chaimen heard from Shopkeeper Zhang that he gave him a hundred Lingzhu as a reward for a suggestion.His family's problems were more serious, so he tripled the reward according to the three hundred Lingzhu prepared rewards.
After the results came, looking at the blueprints, I knew that [-] would not be able to fight.In his mind, he turned four hundred again, and then Chen Xiao changed a new pattern on the spot. In addition, he was going to Jianzhai to find some feng shui artifacts. Finally, the head of Chaimen decided to pay five hundred spirit beads.
The head of Chaimen said to Chen Xiao: "Master Chen, just pick the right magic weapon. If you don't have enough spirit beads, I'll supply them to you later." He really had to grit his teeth to say this.
Chen Xiao took the purse, feeling a little speechless.
In the Gengsheng Xiaotian Realm, the upper-class immortal cultivating family can easily take out more than [-] spirit beads to purchase strategic-level magic weapons, which shows that they have a very rich family background.
Based on this, it can be deduced that a small family or sect that has been established for hundreds of years can almost have an asset of about 15 Lingzhu.
And like Master Chaimen, a group formed with a team of experienced practitioners should have a working capital of three or four thousand spirit beads after decades of operation.
The look of feeling distressed even after taking out five hundred spirit beads like this makes people feel that the head of Chaimen... well, he is really not ordinary or ordinary poor!
Chen Ling counted out two hundred spirit beads and gave them to the head of Chaimen. He said: "As I said before, since we are all neighbors, we should give a discount and give a discount. Only these three hundred spirit beads are enough. Master Baichaimen take it back."
Two sets of plans, one complex and one simple.After all, it is a small family, not complicated, no matter how expensive it is, it is not too expensive, and it is almost the same price.
As for the price of the feng shui magic weapon, there is no fixed price yet, and it is not easy for Chen Xiao to quote directly.As if he did a good deed every day, he gave it away directly.
After bidding farewell to the head of the Chaimen, Chen Xiao went to Jianzhai.After looking around, I didn't see what he needed.Chen Xiao had no choice but to find Jianzhai's buddy and said that he wanted to customize items.
The man was surprised when he heard his request.Not because it is difficult.
He has worked here for a long time, and he has heard all kinds of weird custom-made magic weapon requests, but he has never heard of Chen Xiao.His request is too simple, so simple that even an apprentice refining weapon can do it!
Because of the high starting point, he entered the industry under the leadership of his master in his previous life, and he did business for the rich and powerful.When I came to this world, the first people I came into contact with were also wealthy businessmen.
There are only a few orders that have been made because of human relations, such as the neighbor Aunt Huang's house in the county. Such a family did not say that they could not afford to overturn the house, so he had to directly overturn the plan and start doing it.
