Upon hearing Director Zhong’s words, Qianxun was somewhat at a loss for words but, thinking that she just wanted to return after finishing the shoot and having no time to gamble a few more rounds with Director Zhong, she nodded and said, "Sure, as long as it doesn’t hold up the production, I don’t mind."
"Of course not! With your and Ziqing’s acting skills, this film has been the smoothest one I’ve ever directed; giving everyone a day off now won’t be a problem," said Director Zhong with a smile.
If it had been just some wealthy tycoons from Hong Kong and their entourages coming over, he would have continued shooting. However, this time it wasn’t just them—many famous Feng Shui Masters from Hong Kong were arriving, and these were people he absolutely couldn’t afford to offend.
On the other side, the richest man in Hong Kong, Li Cheng, was speaking to the crowd.
"Esteemed experts, what do you think should be done about building on this site?" Li Cheng asked.
The location of this land, in now-pricey Hong Kong, was actually superb because it was close to Shajianju—an exceptionally auspicious Feng Shui site.
Yet due to the skyscrapers already erected in the vicinity, this parcel of land had turned into a hot potato that no one dared to handle.
Because to the west of this land stood a building topped with a huge cannon, and to the east was another building shaped like a steel blade, with this plot of land right smack in between these two fiercely aggressive buildings!
Even though many modern people no longer believe in Feng Shui, they knew clearly that some things had to be taken seriously!
Otherwise, rashly constructing a building here would only bring disaster upon oneself!
Upon hearing Li Cheng’s words, the Feng Shui Masters present exchanged looks.
As top Feng Shui Masters in the industry, they could naturally see the issues with the land, but they were still clueless about how to resolve the problem.
"The location of this land is indeed exceptional, but those two buildings have formed a dangerous knife-and-cannon force; this problem is not easy to solve," said an elderly man, frowning.
However, if they could avoid this knife-and-cannon force, building here would certainly be great for attracting wealth.
While everyone was deep in thought, Huo Tianci suddenly said, "As the saying goes, ’meet the soldier with a strategy and stem the flood with earth.’ I am but a junior, and not very talented, but I do have an idea."
"Oh? Young man, what is your idea? Please share!" one of the elders immediately turned towards Huo Tianci.
They had long heard that Taoist Qingyang had taken a disciple of remarkable talent, and now, seeing him for the first time, they realized how young he was to be emanating such a celestial aura.
Huo Tianci nodded upon hearing this and then said, "Although the knife-and-cannon force is daunting, why not avoid its edge and focus on defense? Whether it be knives or guns, as long as we raise our shields, can we not withstand them?"
The words had hardly left his mouth when the spirited old man’s eyes lit up, "Right! If we just build a square building right here, we can naturally avoid the impact of the knife-and-cannon force!"
"And as for the bank building being rather tall, we can just make our building floors lower when constructing ours, thus avoiding the impact of the cannon!" he added.
"It might not be aesthetically pleasing, but practicality is what counts!" someone else said.
"Qingyang, tell me the truth, did you already know how to handle this and just let your disciple take the spotlight on purpose?" joked one of the old men to Taoist Qingyang at that moment.
Hearing this, Taoist Qingyang hastily waved his hands and said, "Not at all! I didn’t expect Tianci to come up with these either! But truth be told, my disciple has always been full of surprises since he was young! This time is just a small surprise, haha!"
In his heart, though, he thought to himself: Truly worthy of being Mo Tianji’s reincarnation, not in vain have I waited earnestly for years.
