47: Chapter 47: If rectification is not carried out as soon as possible, disaster may befall us.

Brother Hao was an employee of Taian Company.

He knew very well what kind of existence Taian Company was.

Almost every day, people were kicked out—or even beaten out—by security guards.

Without exception, those people were all there to collect payments from Taian Company.

Brother Hao didn't mention these things; he was prepared to watch his old classmate Luo Wei make a fool of himself.

Taking the elevator, Brother Hao led Luo Wei to the floor where the Procurement Department was located.

Then, he pointed toward a certain office.

"See that? That's Manager Bao's office in the Procurement Department."

"Thanks!" After thanking him, Luo Wei strode toward that office.

Brother Hao didn't leave; he found a spot and prepared to watch the show unfold.

Meanwhile, inside the manager's office.

The pot-bellied Bao Yonghua was lying on the sofa taking a nap.

A sudden knock on the door startled him awake from his dream, making him very unhappy.

"Who is it?" he asked while struggling to roll over and get up from the sofa.

Luo Wei had already seen Bao Yonghua sleeping using his Eye of Thoroughness.

He pushed open the door and walked straight in.

"You are..." Seeing a fresh face enter the office, Bao Yonghua was a bit confused by the situation.

"I'm here on behalf of Rouru Company." Luo Wei got straight to the point, showing the procurement contract in his hand.

"Manager Bao, your company purchased a batch of goods worth five million from Rouru Company last year, and the final payment has yet to be made..."

"Rouru Company?" Bao Yonghua couldn't remember the specifics of Rouru Company at all, so he just waved his hand dismissively.

"We are following up on this matter. As soon as the company allocates the funds, we'll pay immediately. Go back and wait!"

"I see, alright!" Luo Wei nodded. He didn't plan to use violence for debt collection.

After all, this was a corporate payment, not a personal loan.

Even beating up Bao Yonghua would be useless.

On the way to Taian Company, Luo Wei had already thought of a solution.

Of course, that method might not necessarily work, but he decided to give it a try.

Seeing Luo Wei turn to leave, the pot-bellied Bao Yonghua didn't care.

He encountered people like this every day. If the other party refused to leave, he would't hesitate to call security to kick them out.

When Luo Wei reached the office door, he reached out and patted the wall, then looked back at Bao Yonghua.

"Manager Bao, I know a bit about Metaphysics."

"From the moment I entered your company, I felt something was off."

"Your company's location isn't ideal, and the layout is wrong. If it's not rectified soon, I'm afraid a great calamity will befall you!"

"Are you finished?" Bao Yonghua waved his hand with a face full of disgust. "If you're finished, then get lost!"

Bao Yonghua didn't believe in Metaphysics at all!

That stuff was just for swindling money!

Luo Wei smiled without saying a word.

Just as he had patted the wall earlier...

...he had retrieved the bad luck talisman from Xie Simin's mother.

With a mindset of giving it a try, he wanted to see if the bad luck talisman could be attached to a building.

Just now, the bad luck talisman had merged into the wall!

This showed that the bad luck talisman could not only be attached to people but also to anything!

Walking out of the office, Luo Wei saw that his old classmate Brother Hao hadn't left yet; a hint of disappointment flashed in the latter's eyes.

The reason Brother Hao felt disappointed was, naturally, because he didn't see the scene of Luo Wei being kicked out by security.

Of course, he couldn't let it show too obviously, so he quickly stepped forward to offer comfort.

"Sigh, arrears in payment are normal."

"You're working at that Rouru Company, right?"

"What's your salary? Do you want to come and work with me?"

Brother Hao seemed enthusiastic, but in reality, it was just to show off his sense of superiority.

"No need!" Luo Wei refused again. "I'm doing quite well at Rouru Company. As for salary, it's just so-so, I can earn a million a year."

A million a year? What a load of bull!

Brother Hao really wanted to retort, but he couldn't produce any evidence to expose Luo Wei.

The two chatted while walking downstairs. Brother Hao took out his car keys to unlock a car. "Where are you going? I'll give you a lift."

"No need." Luo Wei unlocked a car next to him. "I have a car."

Luo Wei's ride was a domestic electric car worth five or six hundred thousand.

Looking back at his own car, it was a joint-venture gasoline car worth a hundred thousand.

Brother Hao was very embarrassed by this; he vaguely started to believe the matter of Luo Wei's million-dollar annual salary.

They both came from the same school, yet the other was already earning a million a year, while he earned at most around two hundred thousand.

Brother Hao was both envious and depressed; he wanted to get in his car and leave quickly.

"By the way..." Luo Wei called out to him, "You have my contact info, right?"

"If your company looks for me through you, please let me know."

"Huh?" Brother Hao was a bit puzzled; he completely failed to understand what Luo Wei meant.

Out of the blue, why would Taian Company look for Luo Wei?

He didn't think too much about it, nodded quickly, and then hurriedly drove away.

Luo Wei didn't leave after getting into his car. Instead, he turned on the air conditioning, flattened the seat, and lay down.

The bad luck talisman had merged into the walls of Taian Company, which meant the bad luck talisman would bring misfortune to the entire building!

Once bad luck struck the whole building, that Manager Bao would surely think of him, the Feng Shui master!

Just as Luo Wei had suspected, after the bad luck talisman merged into the building, it began to take effect.

In the Procurement Department, inside the manager's office.

The pot-bellied Bao Yonghua lay down to sleep again.

Suddenly, a sharp crack sound startled him awake from his dream!

He rolled out of bed with a start and saw a bottle of liquor shattered on the floor.

That bottle of liquor was clearly placed on the shelf as a decoration; how could it just fall off for no reason?

Bao Yonghua couldn't figure it out, but he didn't think too much of it. He called an employee from the Procurement Department to come and clean the floor.

The lunch break was almost over, so Bao Yonghua didn't go back to sleep. He went to the restroom and returned, intending to handle some work matters.

But at this moment, he noticed the office lights flickering eerily. Not only that, a twisted crack had appeared on the smooth wall at some point!

That crack wasn't just the paint peeling; through the inch-wide gap, one could see that the red bricks inside had also cracked!

While Bao Yonghua was observing the crack, a sudden commotion came from the office area outside!

He walked out of his office and heard the employees discussing that three elevators had stalled at the same time, trapping at least dozens of people inside!

Just as everyone was talking about it, a loud sound of splashing water suddenly came from outside!

Immediately after, shouts were heard!

"Holy crap, the restroom drain burst!"

"Also, the exterior wall of the company fell off and almost hit someone!"

One accident happened after another. Bao Yonghua's first thought was that someone was targeting Taian Company!

But for some reason, a sentence that young man had just said surfaced in his mind.

'Your company's location isn't ideal, and the layout is wrong. If it's not rectified soon, I'm afraid a great calamity will befall you!'
