Chapter 2067 There is no other way

Clearly, Wu Taishan also knew a little about the legends surrounding the Yan family back then.

He straightened his clothes, straightened his back, took a deep breath, and then walked towards the office building entrance.

Pi Yangyang had already told the lobby manager, Deng Jing, that there would be visitors today.

As Wu Taishan and Wu Tianding entered the office building, Deng Jing greeted them with a smile and asked, "Excuse me, sir, are you Wu Taishan, the head of the Wu family?"

Wu Taishan nodded in surprise. "That's right. You...know me?"

"It's a pleasure to meet you, but our chairman has instructed that there will be two visitors. I see that you two match the chairman's description, so I'm taking the liberty of asking a question."

Deng Jing maintained a professional smile and spoke politely.

Wu Taishan felt flattered and quickly bowed slightly, saying, "Please take me to meet your chairman."

Deng Jing waved her hand in a gesture of invitation, leading them to the elevator and upstairs together.

Although Pi Yangyang and Su Xueqing only mentioned preparing a chairman's office during lunch, it was already set up in less than three hours.

At this moment, Pi Yangyang was sitting in his office, familiarizing himself with the environment.

"Chairman, Mr. Wu has arrived."

At that moment, Deng Jing's voice came from the doorway.

He turned his head and saw that Wu Taishan and Wu Tianding were already standing at the door.

He said calmly, "Please come in."

Wu Taishan and Wu Tianding glanced around the office, which was a full 200 square meters, and were secretly amazed.

Although the Wu family owns many businesses, they are all small, scattered businesses, and they have never had a truly respectable large company.

Wu Taishan once wanted to build a large conglomerate, but the seven sons of the Wu family each had their own plans and refused to submit to each other, making it extremely difficult to integrate the industry.

Not to mention the collateral branches, whenever someone proposes integration, they feel that Wu Taishan's branch wants to devour their businesses.

Therefore, Wu Taishan's dream could never be realized.

Seeing the scale of the Yan Group now, he couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

"Chairman Pi, I am Wu Taishan, the clan chief of Wu Village, Xingyi. I was saved by Chairman Pi's righteous help, which allowed me to escape death."

After Wu Taishan entered, he stood in front of Pi Yangyang, bowing slightly and adopting a very humble posture.

Pi Yangyang smiled calmly, pointed to the sofa and said, "It was nothing, just a small favor. Please have a seat, gentlemen."

Wu Taishan and Wu Tianding went over, and only after Pi Yangyang sat down did the two of them carefully sit down.

Zheng Li poured them a few cups of tea, then closed the door and left the office.

Pi Yangyang hasn't been assigned a secretary yet, so Zheng Li is temporarily holding both positions.

Fortunately, the president's office and the chairman's office are right next to each other, which is convenient.

"Chairman, I have come here specifically to thank you."

After taking the teacup, Wu Taishan took a small sip and said earnestly.

Pi Yangyang said calmly, "Mr. Wu, please don't take it too seriously. I had my reasons for saving you."

Wu Taishan was not surprised and smiled slightly, saying, "Chairman, you are a man of few words, so I will not be pretentious. If I am not mistaken, Chairman, you want to bid for the Xingyi Industrial Park project, right?"

“Yes, I’m after the Xingyi Industrial Park project,” Pi Yangyang readily admitted. “It’s almost at the bidding stage. If we win this project, it will involve the relocation and resettlement of the Bai and Wu villages. The Wu family has many members, each with their own agendas, and only the old gentleman can manage the overall situation. So, I learned about your situation through Wu Tianding…”

Wu Taishan said excitedly, "Chairman, no matter what your purpose was, it is a fact that you saved me. I, Wu Taishan, am not an ungrateful person. Now I can assure you that if the Yan Group really wins this project, my entire Wu family will fully cooperate with the Yan Group's demolition and resettlement work within the scope of reason and law, and will never cause you any trouble."

Pi Yangyang's eyes flickered for a moment, then he smiled slightly and said, "It seems that Mr. Wu is a straightforward person. In that case, I'll say thank you in advance."

Wu Taishan laughed heartily, "I was just thinking about how to repay such a great favor. If I can help Yan's Group's Xingyi Industrial Park project, it will be my humble contribution."

Pi Yangyang said, "Don't worry, sir. I'm not one to take advantage of kindness. When the time comes, we'll compensate you as you see fit and resettle you as you see fit. I can also guarantee that once the industrial park project starts, we'll prioritize purchasing any materials that the Wu family can provide, provided the quality is guaranteed. And we'll give priority to hiring any talent that meets our needs."

Wu Taishan was immediately pleasantly surprised and said, "Thank you so much! It's a great fortune for the Wu family to have the chairman's promise!"

Pi Yangyang's expression hardened, and he asked thoughtfully, "Mr. Wu, may I ask who selected the feng shui master for the location of your Wu family's ancestral graves back then?"

Wu Taishan was taken aback, thought for a moment and said, "Speaking of this feng shui master, he was invited from Hong Kong by the Bai family patriarch. His name is Master Long. He is said to be a big shot in the feng shui world and very powerful."

Pi Yangyang couldn't help but be stunned.

Is the world really that small? Why is it Master Long again?

“I remember that our village gave him 3.33 million yuan as incense money back then… The Bai family gave even more…”

Wu Taishan continued.

Suddenly noticing that Pi Yangyang's expression was a bit strange, he didn't finish his sentence but asked with some surprise, "Chairman... you don't know this Master Long either, do you?"

Pi Yangyang chuckled, "Not only do I know him, I've also fought against him."

"Huh?" Wu Taishan was taken aback. "So, Mr. Pi also understands feng shui?"

Pi Yangyang didn't mince words and said quite frankly, "At least I know a little more than that Master Long from Hong Kong."

At this moment, Wu Tianding said, "Dad, Mr. Pi has already visited our Wu family ancestral graves. He said that the feng shui of the Wu family ancestral graves is neither good nor bad, but it's certainly not a particularly auspicious place."

"In addition, Mr. Pi also said that according to the layout of the Wu family's ancestral graves, the Wu family is prone to producing extreme individuals... I think what Mr. Pi said seems to make sense."

"Is it easy for people to become extreme?"

Wu Taishan's brow twitched.

He immediately thought of Wu Tianhe and Wu Tianying.

Aren't these two just prone to extreme personalities? Otherwise, how could they have committed such an outrageous act as patricide?

Moreover, upon hearing this, he suddenly realized that he was also somewhat extreme.

In the matter of Wu Tianding, he completely disregarded the objections of others and insisted on his own way, which is a manifestation of extremism.

"That's right. Based on the layout of the Wu family's ancestral graves, the Wu family is indeed prone to producing extreme individuals. Moreover, the lack of water in front of the mountain also greatly affects the Wu family's fortune. If I'm not mistaken, the Wu family hasn't produced any truly wealthy people over the years, has it?"

Pi Yangyang said slowly.

Wu Taishan's expression hardened, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He stared intently at Pi Yangyang and nodded, saying, "Yes! That's exactly right. Many members of the Wu family are involved in business, but none of them have ever achieved great success. Occasionally, someone might do a slightly better job, but something always seems to go wrong at a crucial moment..."

This was something that had troubled him greatly.

"It's not just the Wu family, the Bai family is the same, they all have small businesses and can't grow big."

Wu Taishan added another sentence.

Pi Yangyang smiled calmly, "That's right. The ancestral graves of your two villages are next to each other, and the feng shui is similar, so the influence on the fortunes of both families is also similar."

Wu Taishan remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "So, the chairman really does understand feng shui?"

Pi Yangyang knew that he didn't completely believe him.

Just like doctors, people also hold the fixed belief that feng shui masters become more powerful with age.

Pi Yangyang is only in his twenties after all. How good can he be?

“Mr. Wu, there’s no need to rush to believe it. You can go to the Tong family in Chu Nan Feng Cheng to find out more, or you can go to the Wan family in Qing Jiang to find out more. I once fought against that so-called Feng Shui master Long from Gangcheng for them, and they know best what the final result was.”

Wu Taishan gave a somewhat embarrassed smile, "Chairman, it's not that I doubt you, it's just... you really are too young, I..."

Pi Yangyang smiled calmly and said, "The old gentleman's suspicion is justified. Most feng shui masters are just braggarts; very few truly understand it. There's no rush. You can investigate it yourself, and we can talk about it later once you've found out."

Wu Taishan thought for a moment, then suddenly stood up, bowed to Pi Yangyang, and said solemnly, "Chairman, I was overthinking it! Since you, Chairman, were able to lend a helping hand to a stranger like me and save my life, there is naturally no need for you to deceive this old man."

Pi Yangyang quickly said, "Sir, there's no need for that. Please sit down and let's talk."

Wu Taishan did not sit down immediately, but earnestly asked, "Could you please offer your advice on how to resolve this, Chairman?"

Pi Yangyang smiled and said decisively, "There is no other way but to move the grave."

Wu Taishan was suddenly stunned, and for a moment, he didn't know how to answer.
