Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

After a while, the uncle finally looked back at the photo of his eldest aunt, rubbed his eyes in embarrassment, and said to Hao Liang.

"Now that it's empty and there's nothing to do, let's go to the town and ask Mr. Xu Da to take a look at it. Count the days. You come back and pay your respects, and I'll find people in the village to help you break ground."

After saying that, the uncle took Hao Liang out of the house and came to show Hao Liang outside the car door.

Hao Liang opened the car door, got in the car with his uncle, and drove towards the town with his uncle.

Hao Liang drove the car and asked the uncle sitting next to him, "Uncle, who is this Mr. Xu Da? Why haven't I heard of it? Didn't I just hire a blind man to pick the day?"

"You haven't heard that it's normal. Mr. Xu Da only came back from outside when you went to Yue City to study. He had been away for many years. You were still very young at that time."

At this time, Hao Liang remembered what his mother had said to him, and asked his uncle, "Uncle, did Mr. Xu tell my fortune and the boss's fortune when I was born?"

"No, the one who told your fortune has died a long time ago. Mr. Xu went to Hong Kong Island when your father was still in his teens."

"Oh." Hao Liang responded and continued driving.

"Don't talk nonsense later," the uncle warned.

"Uncle, does Mr. Xu have any taboos? He can't speak yet."

"Mr. Xu Da is also a weirdo. Others say he is very capable, but he only looks at Feng Shui, not fate and luck. He doesn't even look at the maximum amount of money."

In the past, Hao Liang didn't believe in these feudal superstitions. After starting to set up a factory and do business, Hao Liang slowly woke up for some reason.

Now when I heard the uncle say that Mr. Xu didn't give anyone money to tell his fate, he asked the uncle out of curiosity.

"Uncle, Mr. Xu Da is so capable, why don't you look at it? After all, it's all money, and there are several blind men in the town looking at it."

"When I was young, this Mr. Xu Da felt strange that every time someone asked him to look at it, it was because he couldn't see through the fickleness of fate."

"That's true, who knows what will happen tomorrow."

When the uncle heard Hao Liang's words, he said in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Xu is afraid of losing his life. For a while, he was looking after the ghost house for others, but now he doesn't even look at the ghost house."

Hao Liang also wanted to ask his uncle, but Mr. Xu stopped looking and heard his uncle continue to speak.

"And when he shows people Feng Shui, it's based on his mood. It doesn't matter how much money he has. But every time he asks for good wine and good food at the host's house, if he doesn't have good wine and good food when he arrives, he will just turn around and leave."

"Uncle, how old is Mr. Xu? From what you said, he must be very old."

"He must be over ninety. Despite his age, he is in better health than me."

Hao Liang arrived in the town chatting with his uncle. After Hao Liang parked the car, his uncle took Hao Liang to a house and took a look.

But the uncle did not go in directly. He took Hao Liang around a small alley, came to the back door of a house, and knocked on the back door several times.

After a while, the back door of the house was opened, and a very energetic old man with gray hair, wearing a long-sleeved shirt and a suit outside appeared in front of him.

When the uncle saw the door opener, he immediately took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it over, and said to the old man very respectfully.

"Mr. Xu Da, I am from Haojiacun. I would like to ask you to come over and take a look at the foundation. This is the hire money, and I want to trouble you."

Mr. Xu Da did not take the money from the uncle's hand, but looked at the uncle carefully and said.

"You don't look like someone who wants to build a house. Since you want to invite me, then ask the owner to come and invite me."

When the uncle heard this, he quickly turned around and pulled Hao Liang in, who was waiting outside the door. He came to Mr. Xu Da and said flatteringly.

"Mr. Xu Da has a sharp eye. He can tell at a glance that it's not me who wants to build a house, but my nephew. He wants to build a house. Are you free now?"

Mr. Xu glanced at Hao Liang, looked at it carefully for a while, and then asked in surprise, "When were you born?"

Hao Liang also found it strange that he could just pretend to look at Feng Shui and pick a date, but he still had to ask himself when the baby was born.

Just when Hao Liang was about to answer, the uncle told him his birthday, even the time, and after that he asked carefully.

"Mr. Xu Da, is there something wrong with my little nephew? They used to call you a half-immortal. Please tell me. Please help my nephew."

After receiving Hao Liang's birthday, Mr. Xu closed his eyes slightly, opened his eyes and looked at Hao Liang, and then said.

"I won't go out today. I will go to your village early tomorrow morning at six o'clock. Prepare some wine and food for me. I will leave after eating."

"Mr. Xu, my nephew has a lot to do. Why don't you go over now? After lunch, you can help us pick a day."

"It's going to rain in the afternoon, but it's unlikely. It won't stop until early tomorrow morning. Just prepare the food and wine. Bring the money."

When the uncle heard what Mr. Xu Da said, he stopped talking and handed over the one hundred yuan he had just given and said a few good words.

After Mr. Xu Da took the money from his uncle, he looked at Hao Liang carefully for a while, sighed at the money, shook his head and said to the uncle.

2k

"You guys go back. I will be back at six o'clock tomorrow morning and the food and wine will be ready. Remember to prepare good wine for me."

After saying that, he asked his uncle and Hao Liang to go out. When Hao Liang and the others pushed out the door, Mr. Xu Da immediately closed the back door. Hao Liang was a little confused. He didn't know that Mr. Xu Da was selling something in the gourd.

What kind of medicine.

After Mr. Xu closed the back door, Hao Liang looked up at the sun above his head and asked his uncle, "Uncle, will it rain this afternoon? The sun is so beautiful."

"I don't know. Maybe Mr. Xu looked at yesterday's weather forecast. Let's go and buy some groceries and go home. We'll wait for Mr. Xu to come over tomorrow."

With that said, he walked back to the front door of Mr. Xu's house.

Hao Liang looked at the door open in front of Mr. Xu, and Mr. Xu was also inside, and asked his uncle curiously.

"Uncle, isn't the front door open? Why didn't we just go in directly instead of going all the way to knock on the back door?"

"This is the rule, let's go."

The uncle took Hao Liang to the vegetable market and bought some chicken, duck and fish meat and returned home. He waited for Mr. Xu to come over the next day.

It was as if I had seen a ghost. When I returned to my uncle's house and had lunch, the weather, which had been sunny and clear, suddenly turned dark. Then it started to rain heavily.

And it kept raining all at once, and it didn't stop until Hao Liang left his uncle's house at night to find a room in town to sleep. The rain was still falling heavily.

At this time, Hao Liang also felt that Mr. Xu Da, who was invited to come to see Feng Shui in the morning, was not an ordinary person. He might actually be a strange man who was hiding in the city.

Early the next morning, Hao Liang was sleeping in a hotel room in the town when he was woken up by the ringtone of his cell phone. Seeing that it was only after five o'clock, Hao Liang picked up the call because it was still his uncle.

"Ah Liang, Mr. Xu is coming over at six o'clock today. You should come back early. You have to get home before Mr. Xu. Do you understand?"

"Well, I'm getting up now, should I go pick up Mr. Xu?" After the heavy rain yesterday afternoon, Hao Liang was full of respect for Mr. Xu.

But when the uncle heard Hao Liang said that he was going to pick up Mr. Xu Da, he objected and said,

"No, Mr. Xu Da will arrive on time by himself. I'm hanging up the phone. You'll be back soon. Don't waste time."

Hao Liang hung up the phone, got dressed, got up, checked out of the room and walked out of the hotel. Hao Liang looked outside.

Needless to say, when I came here to sleep last night, it was still raining, but when I woke up in the morning, the rain really stopped, and looking at the sky, it was good weather again today.

Hao Liang returned to his uncle's house. The uncle had already prepared a table of chicken, duck and fish bought yesterday, and also put the wine that Meng Mengdi gave him last time on the table.

Just after six o'clock, Mr. Xu, who went to invite me yesterday, walked in wearing a green gown, a pair of cloth shoes, and a military green cloth bag slung across his body. The time was not bad at all.

After Mr. Xu Da entered the door, the uncle greeted him. After asking Mr. Xu to sit down, he asked Hao Liang to come over and eat with Mr. Xu Da.

I hope that Mr. Xu Da can drink happily while eating and give Hao Liang a few words of advice so that Hao Liang can pay attention to it in the future.
