Chapter 1130: Worried
"Okay, maybe you're right, but after looking at Feng Shui for a while, what did you find?" Lin Qingya didn't want to discuss the feng shui issue of the Government Mansion with Lin Xiao anymore, so she asked.
"There are still some discoveries." Lin Xiao nodded and said, "Just now, when I watched the sky at night, I found that there was a treasure in the courtyard, and then I returned to my position, obviously, the treasure you talked about should exist, and the specific location is under the koi pond, and the depth should not exceed five meters." ”
"What?" When Lin Qingya heard this, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
For this problem, in fact, the successive governors of the Hong Kong Governor's Office have put a lot of thought into it, but they have never found this thing, and now Lin Xiao just came to take a look, and he dared to conclude that there was indeed a treasure here, and also pointed out the specific location of the treasure, which made Lin Qingya feel a little unacceptable.
Of course, the most important thing is that Lin Xiao seems to be talking like a child's play in this matter, so Lin Qingya can't believe him, after all, this kind of thing is not easy to talk about, how can you believe Lin Xiao's words?
"I mean, under this koi pond is where the treasure is hidden." Lin Xiao pointed to the koi pond over there and said, "If you don't believe it, you can let someone dig and try it, if you can't dig the treasure five meters down, you can let me do whatever I want." ”
"Are you telling you true? Do you really know how to read feng shui, isn't it blowing blindly? Lin Qingya is indeed very entangled in this question.
"Lin Xiao naturally knows how to read feng shui, there is no doubt about that." Han Ya next to him continued, "Even on our side, the higher-ups often ask him for advice, so there is no need for you to doubt what he said." Since Lin Xiao said that there is a treasure under the koi pond, there must be a treasure. ”
"You two aren't teaseing me together, are you?" Lin Qingya couldn't help but feel a little crazy when she saw Han Ya also speaking for Lin Xiao so surely.
The matter of the hidden treasure in the Governor's Palace should be real, otherwise, the successive governors would not have dug up several times, but they just didn't dig up anything, and in the end it would have been gone.
But if you can really be sure that this thing is under the koi pond, if you want to dig it out, it will be enough for a day, and it won't even take that long.
However, there is still a problem here, that is, the establishment of the koi pond itself is a decision made to improve the feng shui problems here. It's hard to say.
After all, the feng shui problem is a relatively serious problem on Hong Kong Island.
Although the Governor's House has now been turned into a Government House and the Chief Executive has gone elsewhere to work, Hong Kong Islanders still regard it as a symbol of the Hong Kong Island government, after all, it has been a habit for more than 100 years.
If Lin Qingya suddenly ran over and told the chief executive that there was a treasure hidden under the koi pond, would he believe it? Will he say that Lin Qingya is beguiling the crowd and wants to cut off the feng shui dragon veins of the Government Mansion or something? It's hard to say.
Seeing that Lin Qingya was a little entangled, Lin Xiao was suddenly happy, he simply took out the phone directly and called the chief executive, "Well, I heard about the treasure hidden in the Governor's Mansion before, and I was a little interested." So just now I walked around the yard, and I found that there was something strange under the koi pond, this thing was hidden less than five meters deep, if you started in the name of dredging the pond, it is estimated that it will not take a day to dig things out. ”
After Lin Xiao said these words, he could hear that the chief executive over there seemed to be a little shocked, and then said something, and everyone naturally didn't hear it clearly, but Lin Qingya felt that Lin Xiao's courage was really big enough, and he dared to assert to the chief executive that there was a treasure hidden under the koi pond just after looking around.
Will anyone believe this? Lin Qingya felt a little hanging.
But soon, the chief executive's phone call reached Lin Qingya's mobile phone.
"Hello Chief Executive, I'm Lin Qingya." Lin Qingya picked up the phone, couldn't help but glance at Lin Xiao, and said in her heart that this was probably the trouble caused by Lin Xiao.
As a result, the chief executive's business on the phone was also very excited, and he said that he would let Lin Qingya arrange for the excavation of the koi pond.
"This matter ......" Lin Qingya was a little embarrassed, "shouldn't we be cautious?" Although I have heard about this matter, but there is no evidence, how can I get it? ”
"Let's just say that the pond is dredging, the original pond is a little too shallow, and now it needs to be deepened, otherwise, the survival of the koi fish will be difficult to be effectively guaranteed." The chief executive said directly, "This is also to balance the feng shui problem here, but you need to move faster, it's best to find someone overnight, dig early tomorrow morning, and strive to get this done before noon, there should be no problem, right?" ”
"If you're using large machinery, there's absolutely no problem." Lin Qingya replied.
"Then use large machinery, just say that I approved it, and I will let Director Kang contact you when I go back, if this is done, your police department should make another contribution." said the Chief Executive.
"Yes, I see." Lin Qingya nodded and agreed.
If you want to make a big move in a place like the Government House, you obviously have to get the approval of the chief executive, after all, this place has been listed as a cultural heritage site, and even if you want to do something about a later building like Koi Pond, you need to go through certain procedures.
It's just that after Lin Qingya agreed, she couldn't help but be a little suspicious in her heart, thinking that it was just a few words from Lin Xiao that the chief executive made such a decision, which was indeed a bit surprising, could it be said that the chief executive was so convinced by Lin Xiao's words.
Lin Qingya was suspicious in her heart, it seemed that there should be something in this, which she didn't understand.
In fact, people who don't know about this situation are not only Lin Qingya, but Director Kang, who got the news, also feels incomprehensible about this.
"Chief Executive, is this a bit too hasty to decide?" Director Tang was deeply worried about this, "If you dig it, it's okay, if you can't dig it, just a toss, it's easy to think of something bad, maybe there will be rumors in the society again." ”
To say that Director Kang's worries are still very reasonable.
After all, Hong Kong Island is a relatively superstitious city, and the metaphysics of feng shui is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there are many people who believe in feng shui, and the government has always respected the beliefs of the people.
Not long ago, the Hong Kong Island Observatory, which provides meteorological information by scientific methods, was involved in a "feng shui lawsuit".
As the Observatory was commencing construction of a new weather radar station at Tai Lam Kok in Tuen Mun to detect windshear at the airport, indigenous villagers objected to it on the grounds of "affecting feng shui" and applied to the High Court for judicial review to challenge the Observatory's decision.
The villagers of Tai Lam Chung specially commissioned Feng Shui master Mak Glory to write a report, confirming that the radar station would destroy the feng shui in the village, believing that Siu Lung Tsai Mountain is the "Qinglong Mountain" of the village, and that the people in charge of the whole village are prosperous, and if the Qinglong Mountain is pushed away due to the needs of the project, it will seriously affect the health of the villagers and the longevity of the village.
A lawyer appointed by the villagers said, "Feng Shui is not only a part of traditional customs on Hong Kong Island, but also a part of legitimate rights and interests, which is recognized by the law, and we have reason to fight for it." ”
Coincidentally, even multinational companies that settle on Hong Kong Island will listen to the opinions of feng shui masters, and Hong Kong Island Disney has also changed its doors due to feng shui problems, and the most classic feng shui story is none other than the Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei's Bank of China Building on Hong Kong Island, which started construction without considering feng shui opinions, causing an uproar over the styling problem.
In recent years, large-scale infrastructure projects have been launched on Hong Kong Island, and the feng shui disputes between Hong Kong Island and the residents at the construction sites have attracted great attention from the Hong Kong SAR Government, the most notable of which is the feng shui issues involved in the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link.
According to the information provided by the Hong Kong Government, for the XRL project, a total of 15 complaints have been received so far for compensation works, including the repair of temples, archways, shrines, clan cemeteries, the re-establishment of village offices and sacrificial halls, the construction of archways, and the renovation of village offices, with a total project budget of up to $45 million.
In this regard, the Hong Kong Island Government has shown sufficient respect and sincerity for Feng Shui beliefs, and will take into account the psychological demands of the villagers in carrying out the project, and will be particularly cautious about the infrastructure links that may affect the ancestral tombs and ancestral halls of the villagers, and will not ignore the traditions of the villagers for the sake of development.
In the feng shui dispute between the villagers of Tai Lam Kok and the Observatory, the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development agreed to make concessions by moving the location of the radar station by 17 metres, changing the main building from two storeys to one storey, reducing the overall height by 7 metres, and planting trees in the vicinity to provide shelter to minimise the impact on the landscape.
Judging from this situation, we can see how much attention Hong Kong Island people attach to feng shui issues.
This time, if the chief executive suddenly makes a move on the koi pond of the Government House, it may also cause an uproar in society.
Out of prudence, Director Kang thought that this matter was not easy to operate, and besides, I don't know if the legendary treasure really exists, after all, more than seventy years have passed.
Just because of Lin Xiao's few words, the chief executive made such an irrational decision, which is definitely more than worth the loss.
"Don't say much about that." The chief executive's attitude was very resolute, "Since Lin Xiao said that there is a treasure here, it must not be wrong, you have to cooperate with Lin Qingya now and deal with this thing as soon as possible, the shorter the time, the easier it will be to solve this problem." ”
Then he added, "The Treasure of the Government House is itself a historical problem, and it would be best if it could be solved once and for all, and it would save people from having thoughts about this problem." ”
"I hope so." Director Kang saw that the chief executive had made up his mind, so he couldn't say anything more.
