Chapter 49: Number 066 - Windfall (4)
"No, we didn't have much contact at the time. It took more than half a year for him to get rich before he came to me again. You must have done your homework, and it was around that time that his mother died. ”
"Yes."
His lover had already controlled his condition at that time, and he was relieved, but he didn't expect the old mother to go suddenly. He lamented to me that the world is impermanent. Later, I heard that his business was getting bigger and bigger, but there were rumors around him. His relatives and friends died one after another, and some people wondered if he was doing something. ”
"What's that?"
"It's just the practice, feng shui or something, it's ridiculous, saying that he set up a feng shui bureau in his factory, and the people who came in recorded their lives, and then every once in a while, a person died, became a ghost, and was sucked into the feng shui bureau to give him fortune. It's some mess anyway. ”
"Is there a source for this rumor?"
"The source?"
"It's like his enemies, business competitors, etc., deliberately released to attack him, or maybe someone really saw unusual feng shui furnishings in his factory."
"How is this possible? It's just a random guess at the time. Forget about this kind of rumor, no one believes it at all. ”
"Rumors spread, but no one believes them?"
"It's all been reform and opening up, how long has it been since the four olds have been broken, how can anyone still believe in that kind of thing?"
"But it is a fact that Mr. Lin's relatives and friends have died one after another, so no one is afraid? No employee turnover in his factory? And is there no one among his relatives and friends who alienates him for this? ”
"This ...... Not really. At the time, no one did. ”
"Mr. Sun, don't you think this situation is weird?"
"I ...... I don't think so...... I didn't think about it that much, but ...... Ah, what do you say...... There is indeed a source for those rumors. At that time, Lin Yifan opened a factory, and two people in our scientific research institute were pulled by him to work there. ”
"Wu Ze? What kind of person is he? ”
"A very motivated young man, he was admitted to university in the countryside, and as soon as he graduated from college, he was assigned to our institute, and then worked for a year or two and went to Lin Yifan's factory. He was very motivated, and no one expected him to say something like that. I also heard this rumor from him. At that time, he had found a new job and was going to leave Minqing City, so he came to the office to say goodbye before leaving. ”
"Mr. Lin also has this kind of rumor in his factory, and he was the first to start saying it?"
"I heard that it was the case later. Someone scolded him for not being authentic, but Lin Yifan didn't care and helped him speak. Anyway, no one believed this rumor. ”
"So, when you first said that Mr. Lin was pitiful, you meant that his wife was sick and he was forced to go into business?"
"yes. His wife died in '99, and his son died before that. I went to the funeral, and everyone else was wooden, and there was no god at all. The factory was very profitable before he died, but I don't think his state is right, and his mind is not on the factory. He once mentioned to me that he wanted to close the factory and return to the scientific research institute, but the factory is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people below. As far as I heard him say, he has been doing this since 00 years, and he didn't get rid of this burden until he committed suicide. That factory, at that time, was his burden. ”
"I see."
"In other words, he has no intention of running it, but the factory is still improving?"
"Hmm. If you want me to say, when the factory reaches that scale, it really doesn't make a difference whether his boss is or not. Wasn't there a matter in ancient times where the emperor did not go to court and the world was peaceful? ”
"You have a point. Do you have the contact information of Wu Ze? ”
"Nope. He didn't elaborate on the new unit. ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for you today."
"You're welcome."
On July 4, 2010, Wu Ze was contacted. Audio file 06620100704.wav.
"What do you want to ask Director Lin about?"
"Yes. According to what we have heard, you noticed that Mr. Lin's state was not right at that time, or that Mr. Lin's factory was wrong? ”
"You ...... You're asking this? ”
"Yes, we are from Strange Stories magazine, and we are very interested in this kind of supernatural event."
"Oh...... "Strange Stories"...... This incident can indeed be regarded as the supernatural event you mentioned. ”
"Can you elaborate on that?"
"Have you ever seen anyone who has opened his yin and yang eyes in this magazine?"
"You opened your yin and yang eyes?"
"I can see that kind of thing. But that was when I was a kid. My hometown is in the countryside, next to a big mountain, and I have seen spirits and ghosts in the mountains. Hehe, you may think I'm bragging, but I've really seen it, not blindly, but really seen that kind of thing. ”
"That's amazing. Do you still have this ability when you grow up? ”
"It's gone. I probably disappeared after I went to junior high school. The last time I saw it was in the last year of elementary school, when I went up the mountain to play with the village children, and saw a ghost in the cemetery on the mountain, which was an old man in the village who had just been buried. ”
"You don't seem to be afraid of this kind of thing?"
"They don't hurt me, so why should I be afraid? The ghosts on the mountains in our village were all from the village before they were born, and those mountain spirits and monsters were also paid tribute by the people in the village, and they did not harm the people of our village. ”
"So, what about Mr. Lin's factory?"
“…… So I was scared at the time. Alas...... At that time, Director Lin had so many people around him, and there were constant funerals, but those people didn't feel it at all, they didn't even say a word like 'why are you dead again', as if they were ...... It seems that I am the only one who has noticed that a lot of people have died, and they are still dying. I was really scared, so I found a new job and left Minqing City. ”
"Is Mr. Lin aware of it?"
"He has. When he attended the funeral, he was not sad, but numb, and worried. Besides, after I told someone about my discovery, Director Lin came to me. He didn't warn me not to talk nonsense, he just asked me if I was aware that people were dying all the time around him. ”
"In other words, only you and Mr. Lin sensed the abnormality?"
"yes, only we feel it. When I resigned, Director Lin smiled. He...... I think he wants everyone around him to leave. ”
"You only found this phenomenon of dead people, but nothing else? How did the rumors of the Feng Shui Bureau come from? ”
"That's not what I said, I just think this kind of dead man's ...... frequency, not quite normal. Feng Shui Bureau rumors may be ...... Director Lin passed it on himself. ”
"He wants to get rid of the people in the factory?"
"That's what I thought."
"Can't he just shut down the factory?"
"The speed of factory expansion is too fast, not only the people in the factory, but also many suppliers and sellers are pointing to the factory to live, he is going to close the factory all at once, and many people have to drink the northwest wind. To put it mildly, it may die faster and have too much impact. ”
"Did you hear about Mr. Lin's death later?"
"I saw it in the newspaper. It's ridiculous that he died, and everyone found out that all his relatives and friends were dead. It's like a ghost covering its eyes, and until then, no one notices that something is wrong. ”
