Chapter 542: Chapter 541 Oh my gosh, there’s such a move?!

The next morning, Wang Hao got up bright and early, got dressed, and did his morning routine of washing his face and brushing his teeth.

Oh, speaking of today, it was the day to report to Jiangjiang Company; he really couldn’t afford to be careless.

After getting ready, Wang Hao took out his luck dice from his pocket—let’s see what kind of luck he had today!

"Clatter clatter—"

The luck dice rolled and spun on the table before finally stopping...

"Unlucky?!" Wang Hao stared at the luck dice for a good while before carefully tucking it away: "As the saying goes, ’Fortune and disaster lie within a single breath.’ If I’m unlucky, then I’m unlucky! Anyway, it’s not like I’m extremely unlucky; I can accept it."

Wang Hao was actually quite calm about this result—the luck dice is a luck dice, after all, there are six sides; you can’t have good luck every day, right?

"Leaving now!" With his mood adjusted, off he went!

Although today was an unlucky day, Wang Hao still felt fairly confident—just a bit of bad luck, he knew the drill!

He went out to hail a taxi—waited for half an hour and didn’t get one...

Well, that was to be expected with bad luck, but it was a minor inconvenience, nothing serious!

After waiting for an hour, he finally got a taxi. Hehe, he was on his way! He told the driver the company address directly: "Zhonghai Jinjiang Office Building!"

"Got it!" The driver nodded, started the meter, and then pressed down on the gas pedal with a vengeance...

Half an hour later...

"Beep beep beep—" Cars were everywhere! He had been betting on this road for almost an hour!

Wang Hao looked at the taxi meter and broke out in a cold sweat, "Master, is there something wrong with your meter? The fare keeps jumping like crazy."

The driver gave Wang Hao a cold look, "Haven’t you taken a taxi in a long time? This is an air-conditioned ride; the starting fare includes an extra yuan, and then it’s one yuan for every three minutes in a traffic jam. It’s not like I’m ripping you off!"

Wang Hao: "..."

The fare had already jumped by more than twenty yuan while waiting in traffic!

But bad luck can be understood! After all, he had money; these were all trifles! No big deal!

After waiting another twenty minutes or so, they finally arrived. Oh boy, what a journey!

Into the building now!

Following the address given by Jiangjiang, he headed straight to the eighth floor—Zhonghai Xingyun Foreign Trade Company; this was the place!

As soon as he entered, the pretty receptionist at the door quickly asked Wang Hao his business: "Good morning, sir. Are you here to discuss business or to see someone?"

Eh? This girl’s pretty cute, fair and beautiful—an example of like attracting like.

"Oh, my name is Wang Hao, and I’m here to report for duty." Wang Hao said while taking a look around the company; it was clear that the scale of the company was decent, not very large, with around thirty or forty work stations visible. No wonder Jiangjiang said the total assets were around sixty million; indeed, not very big.

But unexpectedly, as he was speaking, the receptionist suddenly froze. After giving Wang Hao a thorough once-over, she said, "Excuse me, sir, but aren’t you the renowned... Master Wang Hao, the advanced consultant?"

Eh? She knows me?

"Yes!" Wang Hao nodded, "Mr. Jiang has told you guys about me... Eh? Eh?! What are you doing?!"

Before he could finish, he saw the receptionist’s excited face as she grabbed him and then began to shout, "Everyone, come quick! Master Wang Hao is here!"

Boom—

It was like an earthquake; in an instant, all the young employees in the company gathered around, chattering away—

"Where, where? Let me see, let me see!"

"Doesn’t look all that special to me, so young and already earning a monthly salary of a hundred thousand? I don’t really believe it."

"Yeah, he doesn’t seem that different from the average person, and he’s so young. Does he really have such talent? Doesn’t seem very reliable!"

The crowd surrounded him with their buzzing, and Wang Hao was sweating buckets: "Ah, excuse me, please let me through, let me through, folks. I need to go to the HR department to report..."

After saying this, the crowd finally made way for him. Once Wang Hao went in, everyone looked at each other...

"What are we waiting for? Hurry up and have a look!"

"Right, right, let’s hurry and see what’s going on! Move, move!"

A large group of people followed Wang Hao to the HR department and then gathered outside to watch.

Wang Hao entered the Human Resources Department, where the manager was a plump fellow around fifty, sipping tea. Seeing Wang Hao come in, he immediately asked, "Are you that Wang Hao, ’Master Wang’?"

Wang Hao smiled and nodded, replying, "That’s me. I’m here to report for duty today."

"Right, I’ve heard all about it from Mr. Jiang. I’m Tang Yii, the HR Manager. You can call me Manager Tang or just Mr. Tang." Mr. Tang nodded, then scrutinized Wang Hao from head to toe with a face full of disbelief, "Little Wang, I’ve heard from Mr. Jiang that you’re quite something. I wonder what are your specialties?"

Specialties?

Does writing novels, songs, and screenplays count...

"Not too bad," Wang Hao touched his nose and said, "I mainly specialize in Feng Shui and Face Reading. Why do you ask?"

"Is that so?" Mr. Tang stroked his chin and then slowly said, "Well, Little Wang, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but you also know that the price Mr. Jiang is paying isn’t low. You’re joining our company as a freelancer who doesn’t need to clock in. So, shouldn’t you give us a demonstration? Look at how many people are watching outside. If I go ahead and just sign the papers without asking anything, I’m afraid the other employees might have some objections."

HR Manager Mr. Tang said this, and Wang Hao got it in a second.

So he wanted him to show off a trick, huh? Simple enough, but unlucky for me today, whatever I show off might not be easily accepted by others...

"Alright," Wang Hao shrugged indifferently, "but let me just say, my fortune isn’t looking so good today, so if anything happens, don’t blame me for not warning you in advance."

Hearing this, Mr. Tang was visibly confused!

He looked at Wang Hao up and down again, and curiously asked, "What do you mean by that? Are you saying you could mess things up when checking the Feng Shui?"

"Now you just don’t understand," Wang Hao laughed, then began to speak nonsense with a serious tone, "It’s like the moon that waxes and wanes, as people experience good and bad fortune. It’s a rare thing to be perfect in ancient times! A person’s Qi Fortune naturally has its ups and downs. At good times, going with the flow naturally doubles the effect of one’s efforts, but if you try to reverse the forces of nature when the time is unfavorable, at best the Qi Fortune takes a big hit, at worst, one suffers illness or injury due to a major loss in vitality! So, you see, I calculated my fortune before leaving home this morning and the sign showed my luck today is only going to go downhill. If you want to see what I’ve got, I can’t promise anything good—only the bad!"

The people at the door were all stunned upon hearing Wang Hao’s words.

Oh my god, is this even possible?!

"Really? Can he bluff like that?"

"Yeah, I’ve never heard of summoning one’s own bad luck!"

"Deserving of a master with a six-figure monthly salary, not following the usual path!"

"Then... then..." Mr. Tang was sweating buckets. Looking at Wang Hao differently now, he said, "You’re not trying to avoid showing us by making up this bizarre excuse, are you? Fine, bad luck is bad luck, whether it’s good fortune or bad fortune doesn’t matter to us, just show us some of your skills!"

"That’s your word then, I’ll get started!" Wang Hao glanced at Mr. Tang with a cheeky smile and stood up, "Let’s take action, then. If you can’t stand it anymore, remember to shout, so I can stop."

"Alright, alright, alright!" Seeing that things were about to kick off, Mr. Tang stood up and led the way out of the office, "Come on, let’s check out the master’s style!"

With that said, the crowd outside started winking and whispering among themselves—

"Ha ha ha! We’re really in for a treat today; who knew this kind of thing could happen?"

"I mean, isn’t this ’Master Wang’ some kind of con artist from the streets? I am eager to see what this bad luck of his amounts to!"

"Right, right, I’ve heard Feng Shui Masters talk about adjusting fortunes, but it’s my first time hearing one can bring on their own bad luck!"

The crowd buzzed with speculation, waiting to see how this so-called ’Master’ would operate.

"Hmm..." Wang Hao then began striding around the company, muttering under his breath: "Awaken the primordial forces, oppose at the drop of a hat, first set a small goal of earning a hundred million, friendships can go to the dogs, life isn’t just about the immediate needs, there is also poetry and the distance, repeat the important things three times, say it three times..."

As he muttered this nonsensical string of words, the crowd following behind was rather impressed and bewildered!

"Is he chanting some spell that’s needed for casting?"

"It seems like it, so mysterious! Hey, do you think it’ll actually work?"

"Pfft, need you ask? He’s clearly a charlatan. Just wait and see how he skulks away in disgrace!"

While others chattered away, Wang Hao continued his babbling: "Look how handsome I am, feels like I’m drained, come at me, let’s hurt each other, I just want to be a quiet, beautiful man, could have relied on my looks, yet I insist on my talent..."

After babbling for a while, he suddenly stopped in front of a large aquarium in the company, exclaiming loudly, "Bingo! This is it!"

What’s going on? Has he chosen his target?!

"Little Wang, this aquarium, what about it?" Mr. Tang asked curiously, "Isn’t the aquarium fine? Does it have a problem?"

Wang Hao took a glance at Mr. Tang, explained with a mischievous smile, "Water represents wealth, you see. So, the best way to strengthen my fortune today is to move the water! You know what moving water means, right? It means changing the position of this water here!"

The crowd gave each other bewildered looks, and immediately a few strong young men stepped forward, smiling at Wang Hao, "Master Wang, just tell us how to move it. We’ll make sure to meet your requirements!"

Kid, whatever you ask for today we’ll oblige! Let’s see if you have any excuses left when we’re done!
