Chapter 8 An Unthinkable Scene
Li Chuan River proposed, Jiang Shi Hao and Jiang Shi Ping both did not refute his face, they looked at the water cup still placed on the fish tank with some reluctance, a group of people entered the elevator in a file.
The Jiang Group's new branch company building is a 33-story high-rise, with the top three floors being presidential suites and business suites for receiving distinguished guests. The floors below the 30th floor are office areas, divided into various functional departments, as well as restaurants, entertainment venues, billiard rooms, and more. It can be said that this building has everything one needs. Of course, this group's building is not small, using a whole building of over 30 floors as its office area, which is absolutely considered large-scale in the country.
Jiang's family in Shangjiang City is indeed a big aristocratic family, and it can be said that they are one of the top three families in Shangjiang City, and naturally, they are not simple. Looking at the whole country, they are also among the top 500 enterprises.
The entire group building has more than thirty floors. The most central area is naturally the office area and Jiang Shi Hao's office, these places are naturally the most particular.
The entire layout of the branch can be said to be from Gu Fenglin's hand, and Li Chuan River also knows that Gu Fenglin has some ability. The overall layout cannot be said to be flawless, but it is absolutely considered to be well-organized. Therefore, the office area didn't bother to go again, and a group of people directly went up to the 28th floor of Jiang Shihao's office.
The twenty-eighth floor, the entire floor, except for Jiang Shihao's CEO office and several high-level executive offices of the company, was a spacious conference room. This floor was also where Gu Fenglin was busy setting up this morning.
Ningyuan and his six-person entourage stepped out of the elevator, where many staff members were still busy at work. Upon seeing Jiang Shihao, they all greeted him, clearly indicating that this floor had not been fully set up yet.
As they exited the elevator, Jiang Shihao seemed to have forgotten about the Lotus Cup on the floor below. He very sincerely let Ning Yuan and Li Chuanhe go ahead of him, smiling and saying: "Mr. Ning, Master Li, this floor is still being decorated, you two can take a look around and offer some suggestions."
It is said that the layout of this layer was still handled by Gu Fenglin, and Jiang Shihao, in front of Gu Fenglin, cordially invited Ning Yuan and Li Chuanhe, which was somewhat impolite and had a condescending tone.
Why should he be considered an outsider, being the younger uncle of Gu Fenglin, although young, that also counts as a senior, in front of Ning Yuan, Jiang Shihao said so, it's not out of line.
Who doesn't like a bright future, with wealth pouring in? But if Jiang Shihao could really invite Lixiang River, I reckon there wouldn't be any Gu Fenglin left here.
If Ningyuan were not here, and it was just Lichuan River alone, even if Jiang Shihao really wanted to ask for his help, he wouldn't actually do so. After all, slapping Gu Fenglin in the face would also be a slap in his own face, and Lichuan River didn't come here because of him.
But with Ningyuan around, the situation would be different. Ningyuan's seniority is even higher than Lichuan River's, and the two are obviously in a rivalry. In that case, Jiang Shihao wouldn't hold back, and if Ningyuan lost face, it would be his own problem. Compared to Gu Fenglin losing face directly, this would be more acceptable.
If he wasn't careful, Ning Yuan would gain the upper hand. Wouldn't that make Jiang Shi Hao even more proud? Most importantly, the two of them competing with each other would make the feng shui layout here even more perfect. In the end, wouldn't Jiang Shi Hao be the one to benefit from it?
With this idea, Jiang Shihao naturally put on a very low posture, one mouthful of Mr. Ning, one mouthful of Master Li, this scene almost made Jiang Shiping vomit blood beside him.
At this time, Jiang Shiping was quite depressed. He brought Li Chuanhe here, and the purpose was naturally to come and humiliate him, letting Li Chuanhe pick out a big pile of problems, and finally the few people turned their sleeves and left, as for how to solve it, it wasn't something Jiang Shiping would worry about.
Who would have thought that halfway through, a Ningyuan suddenly appeared, and these are good, Lichuan River picks out the flaws, Ningyuan corrects them, Ningyuan picks out the flaws, Lichuan River corrects them, in this way, isn't the entire group's layout even more perfect? Isn't this exactly what Jiang Shiping came for?
It's a pity that at this time, Li Chuanhe and Ning Yuan are obviously more powerful. Jiang Shiping can't bear to go forward to sweep Li Chuanhe's face. Although he can invite Li Chuanhe, he doesn't dare to offend him too much. Li Chuanhe is in Shangjiang City, which absolutely has the capital to be arrogant.
The three major wealthy families in Shangjiang City all have a deep connection with the Liuchuan River, and the three families are also competing with each other. Whoever is foolish enough to offend the Liuchuan River will be helped by the Liuchuan River to thoroughly deal with the other two families.
Feng shui is a mysterious thing, and it's absolutely mysterious. Most wealthy people believe in feng shui, but the vast majority of them are spending money to buy peace of mind, just to feel at ease. As for whether it really works or not, that's hard to say.
But Li Chuan River has been in Shangjiang City for over 20 years, and naturally, he has his own way of doing things. Some things are really hanging in the balance, making you unable to help but believe them, although everyone dares not confirm that certain events have indeed occurred due to Li Chuan River's feng shui arrangements. Yet no one dares to suspect or question it; after all, it is better to believe they exist than not to believe at all.
For example, five years ago, the Qin family in Shangjiang City was on the verge of bankruptcy due to a funding crisis. Later, they spent a huge amount of money to invite Lichuan River, and within half a month, a large group from outside came to negotiate cooperation and injected a large sum of funds, allowing the Qin family to turn their fortunes around.
Three years ago, the Xu family in Shangjiang City was at its peak, and even suppressed the Jiang and Qin families to the point of suffocation. The Xu family looked down on everything, and even looked down on Li Chuanhe, speaking rudely to him. Who would have thought that within a month, the Xu family would face a huge crisis? The old master of the Xu family fell critically ill, and the entire Xu family plummeted, almost being eliminated from Shangjiang City. It wasn't until these past two years that they barely recovered.
Although there is no direct evidence to prove that these two things are indeed done by Li Chuanhe, who dares not take it seriously? Not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of one in ten thousand, if Li Chuanhe really has that skill, whoever offends him will be asking for trouble.
There are some things in this world that even if they are coincidences, no one dares to be indifferent and take them lightly. The more inexplicable the thing is, the more it commands respect.
It's like some feng shui masters who are actually deceiving people to make a living. If there is no direct evidence, ordinary people usually don't dare to question them casually, at most they just keep a distance to avoid being suddenly victimized.
Li Chuan River has been able to stand firm in Shangjiang City for 20 years, and it's not comparable to those Jianghu scammers. Otherwise, they would have been exposed long ago. Therefore, when facing Li Chuan River, all the dignitaries in Shangjiang City give him some face.
Jiang Shipei followed behind, watching Ningyuan and Lichuan River walking in front of him, occasionally pointing and gesturing, not to mention the regret in his heart. This time he came to make trouble for Old Three, but it turned out that he ended up helping instead.
The entire floor was very spacious, with Ningyuan and Lichuan River leading the way in front, while Gu Fenglin, Jiang Shihao and several others followed behind. After they had made a complete circuit of the whole floor, it was already two or three hours later.
This layer of ancient wind forest is also being arranged today, so the style has not been formed yet. The overall layout has just begun, and compared to the first floor, it's not as particular.
Li Chuan River and Ning Yuan took turns speaking one sentence each, after a lap around the floor, the overall layout of the entire floor was basically finalized.
Can't help but say that Li Chuan River is indeed a master of Feng Shui, and his vision is sharp. Gu Fenglin, who was following behind him, was deeply impressed.
However, among the few people, the most shocking one was Li Chuanhe. He and Ningyuan walked together all the way, Ningyuan rarely spoke, mostly it was him who made things difficult, yet Ningyuan always managed to say something that hit the nail on the head with just a few words, this ability of his left Li Chuanhe both shocked and worried.
It's astonishing that Ning Yu is so young, yet so accomplished. No wonder Qingping Daoist passed on the mantle to this young man. It's a worry that with Ning Yu around in Shangjiang City, Lichuan River will have a rival from now on.
Of course, at this time Li Chuanhe still regarded himself as a junior and naturally could not show his dissatisfaction. On the one hand, Ningyuan's generation was placed there, and on the other hand, the depth of Jiuxianmen was not to be ignored, so even if Li Chuanhe was dissatisfied in his heart, he could only temporarily hold back his breath and think of a countermeasure.
After finishing the first floor, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Ningyuan looked at his watch and said to Jiang Shihao: "General Manager Jiang, it's getting late, I've been on a train all day, and I'm really tired, so I'll take my leave first."
"I'm disturbing Mr. Ning." Jiang Shihao also saw it at this time, and Ning Yuan was indeed not simple, compared to Li Chuanhe, he was not inferior in any way. He politely said: "I've already booked a hotel room, I'll send someone to take Mr. Ning there to rest now."
"No need, Xiaofeng has already arranged for my accommodation, so I won't bother President Jiang. Ningyuan waved his hand and smiled, looking at the Lichuan River: "Master Li, I'll take my leave first, we can talk again another day?"
"No, I'll send Senior Ning off." Li Chuanhe's face was somewhat unnatural, but he still put on a polite smile and said, as he stepped into the elevator with Jiang Shihao and several others. The elevator slowly descended and stopped at the first floor.
"Mr. Ning, please." The elevator door opened and Jiang Shihao politely asked Ning to go first, followed by the others. As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, Jiang Shiping, who was walking beside him, suddenly exclaimed and pointed at the fish tank, stuttering: "That cup...the water in the fish tank..."
Several people heard the exclamation and turned to look at the fish tank, only to see that the water cup placed on top of it was still steady, but the originally clear water in the cup had turned dark brown. The water in the fish tank below looked... seemed to have a hint of spirituality, as if... as if it were alive.
