Chapter 271
"Similarly, in a hut and a shabby room, a talented scholar and a general will emerge; within the high walls of a wealthy family, a dandy and a prodigal son will be raised, and two or three generations will squander the family wealth and ruin the family. How can this be destroyed?
"In Feng Shui destiny, everyone is equal. Power, money, status, luxury and enjoyment are like wind and clouds, and family property is ruined like water and sand. In the end, there is no way to escape one's fate!"
"Go and see, who is the earliest to burn incense in the temple every year? Who burns the most expensive incense? No one else! Even the most powerful and noble officials!"
Li Ling saw him picking up his book bag and interrupted: "Mr. Yan, what is the feng shui problem of the Chen family? The Yangzhai? Or the ancestral tomb? Or is it blocked by physical evil?"
Li Ling felt a little strange when he heard that the Chen family, like Yang Xu, the owner of Wangjiang Tower, had found many Feng Shui masters but could not solve the problem.
Although Li Ling has reached the third level of innate energy refining, he is still a fledgling Luban sorcerer, and his experience and vision are still lacking.
There are always many things in this world, many disasters and calamities that are beyond his control. If he gets to the Chen family, he can't do anything about it. After all, it will be embarrassing.
Yan Hongbin nodded and said, "Well, I heard from Wen Long that over the past few years, his Chen family's business has suffered serious losses, everything has gone wrong, and his family has always been sick. He decided that there was something wrong with the feng shui of the family.
"But whether it is the Feng Shui of the ancestral graves or the homestead, no Feng Shui master can say it accurately. Of course, Wen Long believes that there will definitely be no problem with his Yangzhai.
"After all, his mansion is the best in the mountains near the eastern suburbs of New York. Anyone who knows anything about it is full of praise for his mansion.
"So, I would like to ask Master Li to take a look at his family's ancestral tombs, mansion, ancestral hall, and even the Feng Shui of his company."
Li Ling pondered for a moment and then stopped talking.
This is the first time he has shown Feng Shui to a wealthy family, although he is not a Feng Shui master, but a Luban magician.
I hope everything goes well. After all, the word-of-mouth effect of rich and powerful people is the best advertisement.
Back then, his uncle, three senior brothers, and others were working for wealthy families almost all year round, and naturally they also made a lot of money.
A very simple truth is that what poor families consider is food and livelihood issues, but only wealthy families have the time to plan for their own Feng Shui fortune and the family business of their children and grandchildren.
If you don’t even have enough to eat, who has time to think about finding a Feng Shui treasure land to bury your ancestors and build a house?
Of course, this does not mean that poor people do not value Feng Shui. After all, most princes and generals in history came from poor families.
"The Art of Fate" says: One is destiny, two is luck, three is feng shui, four is accumulation of merit and five is reading.
Reading can indeed change your destiny. At least in ancient times, this was a golden rule and an excellent channel for people from the bottom to reach the upper class.
In ancient times, it has always been a good story among scholars that a poor talented man studied to be the top scholar in high school, returned to his hometown in rich clothes, and honored his ancestors.
This is the reason why the ancients were so eager to take the imperial examination. Once they were named on the gold list, they would be completely transformed and their career would skyrocket.
Of course, in modern society, it is hard to say whether studying can change your destiny. Because even if you get the top prize, there will be someone who can take your place.
Speaking of which, reading can only be ranked as the fifth skill to change one's destiny, while Feng Shui is ranked the third. Many emperors and ministers in history have also relied on the feng shui of their ancestral graves to bring good fortune to their fortunes.
It's just that those who understand Feng Shui and destiny are those who are talented and have financial resources.
Li Ling still has one goal in mind, which is to find Chen Xinxin and find out who her "third grandpa" is.
After all, this "third grandfather" is most likely a descendant of the Liao family of the Feng Shui family. Does this have any connection with the old monster Liao Shan?
Sanyeye, Shanyeye, Sanheshan are just one word apart.
As for how to find Chen Xinxin, Li Ling didn't need to worry about it. Didn't this girl want Li Ling to do three things for her?
In addition, Li Ling had already figured out that her 5D beautiful breasts were all right. Li Ling knew that within three days, when this little girl was busy with her friend's wedding, she would naturally come to her door.
But Li Ling obviously overestimated Chen Xinxin's patience.
The White Mountain National Forest Park in the eastern suburbs of New York has an average altitude of about 400 meters. It is a villa and resort area where wealthy people from upstate in the United States gather. The mountains run from northeast to southwest, with overlapping mountains, undulating hills and valleys, and beautiful scenery.
When Li Ling and Tongzi got out of the car with Yan Hongbin, they saw Chinese-style painted houses with carved beams standing on a hill about fifty meters high.
The building is majestic and impressive, commanding from a high position and facing the wind on all sides. It is true that if it were not a wealthy family, how would it be willing to spend so much money to build a mansion on this hill?
It is possible to drive to the top of the mountain via the three-circle winding mountain road, but Li Ling had heard Yan Hongbin introduce the topography of Chen's Villa early on, so he suggested parking at the bottom of the mountain and hiking up the mountain.
After all, you can observe the Feng Shui momentum all the way up. Otherwise, it would be troublesome to climb down and climb up the fifty-meter-high hill.
Going up the mountain path, the mountain breeze in the Baishan area is blowing, and the air is strong. It is the golden autumn in September, and the mountain breeze is coming slowly, which is very cool.
They also saw melodious colorful clouds in the sky, the shadows of cranes passing by, green trees sometimes enveloping people, and strange rocks flying in the sky. The three of them felt relaxed and happy.
This is indeed a treat for Li Ling, who is fed up with the fast pace of big cities and the heavy curriculum at Columbia University. He can't help but sigh that the Chen family is really lucky.
To be able to live in a secluded home in the mountains and leisurely stay with the owner of the villa, drink with the green mountains, enjoy the grass and trees, steal a leisurely life, and avoid the troubles of the world. This is the ultimate happiness in life!
The ancestors of the Chen family immigrated to the United States with their family more than a hundred years ago, purchased dozens of acres of land near the White Mountain National Forest Park in New York, and built a series of villas on the hills.
Looking from a distance, the villa is impressive, with dragons welcoming from all directions and respected on all sides.
When outsiders see a mansion like this, they know that the owner must be either rich or noble. If Yan Hongbin hadn't revealed it, Li Ling would never have known that the Chen family was the largest wealthy family overseas.
Yaomen, that is, begging for food, focuses on the way of being down and out. Don't underestimate "Yao", the knowledge of this sect is very profound.
When times are bad, how should we survive the adversity? How should we survive if we have no money and power? We need people in the family to be well versed in this.
The founder of the important sect is said to be Zhu Yuanzhang, who worked as a beggar for a period of time before he became emperor. Another theory is that he was Liu Xituo.
Nowadays, those who beg for food under lotus flowers, those who eat from wealthy households and beg for food, and those who pretend to be monks, nuns, and Taoists to deceive others can all be considered as members of the family.
