Chapter 2599: Chapter 2600: All Things Work Together, I Observe Again

"Uh..."

Lin Yi didn’t accept it immediately, "Are you sure this thing is worth 980?"

"You’re my junior brother, how could I scam you?" Zhang Youfu said:

"There’s always some brotherly affection between us, a senior brother wouldn’t harm you."

Lin Yi took out his phone, searched on a shopping app, and said:

"It’s 9.9 with free shipping on Pinduoduo, and they even give a Tai Chi Sword Manual as a bonus. You’re going too far, senior brother."

"Uh..." Zhang Youfu paused, "There’s no guarantee with online sales, plus my version is blessed, unlike the trashy goods online."

"Isn’t blessing something done by temples?"

"Nowadays, everything’s about crossing boundaries, we do it as well."

"You’re quite wasted being a host here with all your talents."

"Junior brother, you’re flattering me."

The two stood at the Blessed Land Gate, watching the people working on the construction below the mountain.

"I heard you beat up the guy who scammed Li Yongnian out of money?" Zhang Youfu suddenly asked.

"If I didn’t hit him, he wouldn’t have returned the money."

"Being peaceful brings fortune, while haste leads to disaster. There are many ways to solve a problem; you shouldn’t stick to just one."

"I’ve been very calm." Lin Yi leaned on the railing and said:

"In the past, I probably would have put them in the ICU by now."

"Reach the ultimate void and maintain true tranquility, let all things work together, I watch their return." Zhang Youfu said calmly:

"Keep calmness at the core, all things reside in the Dao."

"Senior brother, you mean I’m too impetuous, I should unify my mind and spirit, eliminate distractions, and focus on cultivation, right?"

"That’s about right." Zhang Youfu said:

"So buying this 980 Tai Chi Boxing General is definitely worth it."

"Senior brother, when we went down the mountain yesterday, Gong Xiaoyun bought over ten pieces of Balenciaga, I bet now..."

"Senior brother has other matters to attend to, junior brother can take your time meditating here."

Leaving behind these words, Zhang Youfu quickly scurried away.

"That old pervert."

Lin Yi cursed and continued looking at the distant scenery.

The sunset gradually faded into the mountains, casting everything in a layer of orange-red afterglow.

The workers on the construction site were ready to wrap up for the day, a flock of birds flew across the sky, and Lin Yi’s heart seemed to sink with the setting sun bit by bit.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Lin Yi seemed to think of something.

Looking back at the empty spot behind him, he suddenly realized that what that old pervert Zhang Youfu said made a lot of sense.

Leaning on the railing, watching the sun completely disappear into the mountains, Lin Yi also prepared to head back.

Tomorrow would be his seventh day at Shangqing Palace, and once it’s midnight, he would start the new profession.

He felt a slight anticipation, murmuring to himself:

"Hopefully, it’ll be a security job, all these fancy professions every day are driving me crazy."

The next morning, Lin Yi got up early and went to meditate on the back mountain of Shangqing Palace.

It wasn’t that Lin Yi had an epiphany, he just simply thought that a quiet space is suitable for thinking.

"Uncle Master, Uncle Master!"

Just as Lin Yi was meditating, he heard Li Yongnian’s yelling.

"What’s up?" Lin Yi opened his eyes and said:

"Did Zhang Youfu tear up Gong Xiaoyun’s Balenciaga?"

"Not at all, Master isn’t that bold." Li Yongnian said, short of breath:

"The people from the scenic area came and stopped the road construction."

"Hmm?"

Lin Yi paused, "We’re paying for the road ourselves, what right do they have to stop us?"

"They said the road construction impacts the scenic area’s normal operations, told us to stop immediately and restore things to the way they were, and said they would fine us. You better go take a look."

"Let’s go."

Lin Yi got up and went down the mountain with Li Yongnian.

"Has something like this happened before?"

"It seems not. The scenic area is targeting us, not allowing Shangqing Palace to build a road, if it were elsewhere, it would have been done a long time ago."

"I mean, have other owners who spent money on scenic area facilities ever been picked on?"

"That hasn’t happened." Li Yongnian said:

"If it’s not with their money, improving scenic area facilities definitely wouldn’t provoke any trouble."

"So something’s fishy about this." Lin Yi said:

"I remember you saying that Feng Jiaming’s brother-in-law seems to be the person in charge of the scenic area."

Hearing Lin Yi say this, Li Yongnian suddenly realized.

"A few days ago, I beat him up, and he must have told his brother-in-law about it afterwards, who’s now causing trouble. This is not an easy problem to solve."

"Don’t rush, let’s check it out first."

Soon, the two of them exited the Blessed Land Gate and arrived at the construction site.

They found the workers had stopped working, and a few uniformed staff stood nearby, looking displeased with the roadwork.

"Are you in charge of Shangqing Palace?"

The speaker wore an ill-fitting suit, was a bit overweight, and held a cigarette in his hand.

His name was Meng Yingcai, the manager of Longhu Mountain Scenic Spot.

"I am, what’s the matter?"

"What’s the matter?" Meng Yingcai sneered:

"Who told you to build roads here? It affects tourists’ visits, causing the scenic area to lose so much money, do you know that!"

"Technically, road construction should be your responsibility, but it’s been over a year with no results, now we’re spending our own money to build it, and you come pointing fingers, isn’t that a bit unfair?"

Clearly, Meng Yingcai expected Lin Yi to say this, gesturing as he spoke:

"Whether to build or not is the business of our scenic area, it has nothing to do with you. Now, due to the roadwork, tourists’ visits have been severely affected, the losses are significant, and you need to compensate for the scenic area’s loss!"

"According to your rules, how much should we compensate?" Lin Yi calmly asked.

"Restore the road to its original state and pay 500,000, we’ll let it go then."

"Are you out of your mind asking us for half a million?" Li Yongnian cursed:

"How much does it cost to build a road!"

"It was you who broke the rules first, this has nothing to do with me." Meng Yingcai said:

"Pay the fine within a week, for every day late, an additional 1% late fee is added; don’t say I didn’t warn you."

"Don’t push it too far..."

"Say no more." Lin Yi interrupted Li Yongnian and then looked at Meng Yingcai, "Let’s go back and figure it out, don’t panic."

"Should we stop building the road?" the foreman asked. freewebnσvel.cøm

"Stop for now, find a shady spot and rest, or go somewhere for some sightseeing, consider it a business trip."

"Thanks a lot then."

Lin Yi nodded with a smile and left with Li Yongnian, heading uphill.

"Uncle Master, why did you agree with him? We don’t have that much money."

"I only said we’d find a way, didn’t say we’d give them money, what’s the rush?"

"Huh?" Li Yongnian was a bit baffled, "How do you plan to handle this?"

Lin Yi remembered what Zhang Youfu said yesterday:

"Let’s try a gentler approach."
