Wang Dequan looked at Zhang Jianshe with a complicated gaze.
Chen Yu hadn’t even shown his ability and was already asking for money?
Even street scammers and charlatans weren’t as anxious as Chen Yu.
“Let me do it.”
Zhang Jianshe took out his phone and was about to pay on behalf of Wang Dequan.
Although he didn’t understand Chen Yu’s intentions…
However, he was 100% sure Chen Yu wasn’t doing this for money.
“Principal Zhang, you can’t pay this money.”
Chen Yu covered the QR code with one hand.
“Whoever is coming for my consultation must pay themselves. This is the rule.”
“Dr. Chen, you can make an exception.”
Zhang Jianshe smiled bitterly.
“There are rules to everything. My rules cannot be broken.”
Chen Yu wanted to make things manageable too, but he had no choice.
The Heavenly Secrets Strategy stated it very clearly.
Merit and luck belong to each of their own.
Cause and effect, bound by heaven.
“I see, so there’s such a rule. Sure, I’ll pay.”
Wang Dequan laughed and asked how much he needed to pay upfront.
“If it’s just a consultation,” Chen Yu said coolly, “the fee is 5,000 yuan.”
“If you need treatment, add another 5,000.”
Wang Dequan paid 10,000 yuan in one go.
“Dr. Chen, can we start now?”
Wang Dequan smiled.
Wang Dequan, who boasted of meeting countless people, was confident that he only needed to listen to Chen Yu speak for a few minutes.
Was Chen Yu someone extraordinary or a liar?
He could tell the difference between the two immediately.
“Of course.”
Chen Yu returned to his seat behind his desk.
“Unlike other billionaires or those who rely on their family connections,”
“Or had a lot of start-up capital.”
“You had nothing when you started your business.”
Hearing this, Wang Dequan did not think much of it.
This was public information, and anyone who could surf the internet could find it.
“You were born into poverty. As your hometown is in the mountains, most of the land is unsuitable for growing food.”
“Every year, the grain produced from the soil is barely enough for your family to fill their stomachs.”
“Other than that, there’s nothing left.”
“When you were young, you followed your parents, learning to climb a mountain and pick out useful herbs.”
“When you were 13, your parents fell off a cliff while picking herbs, and both passed away.”
“You’re the family’s eldest son and had to shoulder the burden of supporting the family.”
“With a few younger brothers and sisters, you helped your parents settle their funeral with great difficulty.”
“After that, you dropped out of school and carried the burden of picking herbs and selling them on the streets.
“Over the past few decades, you’ve gone from nothing to becoming one of the top ten wealthiest people in Hangzhou City today.”
After hearing Chen Yu’s words, Wang Dequan was filled with emotion.
It wasn’t that he was emotional over Chen Yu’s accurate words.
Instead, he was lamenting his dream-like journey in life.
Even today, he can’t believe it sometimes.
As a 13-year-old child, he not only raised his younger brothers and sisters to be great members of society, but he had also become a billionaire.
As for what Chen Yu said, it was true.
However, this was all useless information.
After becoming famous, Wang Dequan was interviewed countless times.
He had participated in many speeches and would talk about his past experiences once he was in the mood.
On the one hand, it was used to encourage others.
On the other hand, it showed that it wasn’t easy for him to make his fortune.
“Is Dr. Chen done?”
Wang Dequan was confident that even if Chen Yu was capable, he wasn’t that extraordinary.
He definitely wouldn’t be as powerful as Zhang Jianshe said.
“Not yet.”
Chen Yu smiled faintly.
“If we want to talk about why you became a billionaire, while it has something to do with your hard work, it’s honestly not that meaningful.”
“Huh?”
When these words came out of Chen Yu’s mouth, Wang Dequan’s face revealed an obvious change in emotion.
Wang Dequan fixed his eyes on Chen Yu, his brows tightly knitted together.
“When you were 17, you found a brass statue the size of a child’s palm on your way home from selling medicine.”
“You plan to sell it as copper when you go to town the next day.”
“What you didn’t expect was a great thing that fell on your head when you went to town to sell medicine the next day.”
“An old man brushed past you and suddenly fell unconscious.”
“More than forty years ago, people were simple and honest. You didn’t even think about it then and wake him up.”
“Later, you discovered that the old man’s identity is that of the owner of a big pharmacy in town.”
“To thank you, the old man gave you a gift of 10,000 yuan and asked you to deliver your herbs directly to his pharmacy in the future.”
“Since then, your herb business has been only getting better and better.”
“When you’re not even 30, your assets have already exceeded 100 million.”
“You mentioned you made a fortune because of your kindness and good karma.”
“But, you should know the real reason, no?”
“Do you still want to continue listening?” Chen Yu asked after a pause.
Wang Dequan was dumbfounded.
If Wang Dequan previously thought Chen Yu was nothing more than a charlatan, he was now wholly convinced of Chen Yu’s capabilities.
Zhang Jianshe looked at Wang Dequan in shock.
Wang Dequan’s history was well known, and it was even written into a bestseller book.
A child who dropped out of school in the mountains and started to support his family at the age of 13.
He had to take care of his younger siblings and also take time to go up the mountain to pick herbs.
He relied on his hard work and perseverance, and in the end, he became a billionaire.
No one had ever expected that there was something fishy about it.
On the second day after Wang Dequan picked up the bronze statue, his luck changed.
So, of course, it was heavily implied that this had something to do with his fortune.
“How did you know?”
After holding it in for a long time, Wang Dequan only wanted to know how much more Chen Yu knew about the bronze statue.
“Of course, through scientific diagnosis and treatment.”
Chen Yu’s smile didn’t diminish.
“To you, the bronze statue is equivalent to your life to a certain extent.”
“In the beginning, you didn’t think the bronze statue was your blessing to become rich.”
“Until one night, you dreamed of five gods emitting golden light.”
“The five gods hovered in the air, looking at you solemnly.”
“When you remember the five figures carved on the bronze statue, you suddenly wake up from your dream.”
“From then on, you regarded the bronze statue carved with the five gods as something as precious as your life.”
“You began secretly offering prayers daily, and your business grew along with it.”
“Later, you bought a villa and built an incense hall in the basement to worship this bronze statue.”
“You’re afraid that others will find out the secret of your fortune and take away your life.”
“You didn’t tell anyone about this, including your brother, sister, or even your wife.”
Wang Dequan staggered backward with a gaze filled with shock.
It was his secret, which had been hidden in his heart for decades.
In just an instant, Chen Yu had stripped these secrets clean.
Chen Yu either had x-ray vision into his heart or could predict the future and past.
“Unfortunately, flowers don’t last forever.”
“In recent years, your business has started to shrink.”
“Even after kowtowing and praying to the bronze statue daily, your business hadn’t improved at all.”
“Helpless, you invited any masters or monks you could find to help you change your fate.”
“The decline in your business has eased, but not by much.”
Wang Dequan knelt on the ground with a plop after hearing that.
“Master, please guide me!”
