Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Cleverness Bordering on Demoniac Cunning
The little nurse stood with her hands on her hips, huffing and puffing. Although she was young, she had the demeanor of an old hand, causing Yang Yu to laugh and cry in frustration, "Nurse, if you don't let my buddy change his dressing, we're going to have to check out of the hospital!"
"He's injured like this, and you still want him to check out? What kind of friend are you?" Lan Xiaomeng humphed, "If you really care for your friend, just let him stay here for half a month until he's nearly healed. The doctors will naturally discharge him then."
"Fine, let's not change it then," Yang Yu put away the ointment, planning to secretly change it after the nurse had left.
Seeing that Yang Yu had given up on changing the dressing, Lan Xiaomeng proceeded to swap out the IV bag, "Let's take your temperature."
Zhou Haoqiang kept shaking his head, "No need, I just had it checked earlier. I know I don't have a fever... "
"No way, it's protocol!" Lan Xiaomeng said uncompromisingly as she tucked the thermometer under Zhou Haoqiang's armpit, "Patients need to follow instructions, got it?"
Facing a nurse with such a character, both men were helpless and could only offer a bitter smile.
Yang Yu's phone rang, and he answered casually. A middle-aged man's voice immediately came through, "Hello, is this Mr. Yang? My name is Wen Yishan. I am the housekeeper of the Wen Family in Tianhai."
"The Wen Family's housekeeper?" Yang Yu knew that Wen Yufei belonged to the Wen family, but why would their housekeeper be looking for him?
"Yes," Wen Yishan's tone was very respectful, "Is Mr. Yang available to talk?"
Yang Yu was puzzled, "We don't seem to have anything to talk about, do we?"
Wen Yishan said, "I've brought the contract for the villa transfer from the young miss, Mr. Yang. Once you sign it, you can move in tomorrow. If Mr. Yang is currently occupied..."
"No, no, I'm free," Yang Yu immediately responded with a smile, "Where is Housekeeper Wen?"
Wen Yishan chuckled, "Mr. Yang, just name the place, and I'll drive there."
Half an hour later, Yang Yu met Wen Yishan at Rick's Cafe near the hospital.
Instinctively, Yang Yu sized up Wen Yishan using physiognomy, noting the middle-aged man had a benign face and didn't seem like a deceitful person, which put him at ease.
Wen Yishan sat down and directly presented the villa transfer contract, "Mr. Yang, this is the East Sea Garden seaside villa, Block A, No. 01, valued at 30 million. Please have a look, Mr. Yang. If everything is okay, just sign here, and we will cover the deed tax."
Originally, Wen Yufei had promised to give him the worst villa in East Sea Garden worth 20 million, which only cost them a few million to build.
However, the one Wen Yishan was offering now was the best in the complex, and even half more expensive.
Having read the contract, Yang Yu smiled at Wen Yishan, "Housekeeper Wen, I remember Mr. Wen said that I would get the villa only after proving that my design was error-free. The house hasn't even started construction yet. How come I'm getting the villa already?"
"To be frank, I have something to consult Mr. Yang about," Wen Yishan replied with a smile. "Please sign the contract first, otherwise, I'd feel awkward asking for your advice."
Yang Yu said, "A clear conscience fears no accusation. Let's discuss your matter first!"
That was just the type of person Yang Yu was. The more others trusted him, the more he felt he needed to reassure them.
Sensing the other party's sincerity, he naturally couldn't accept their reward before doing the job.
"Alright then," Wen Yishan took out five tattered sheepskin scroll paintings and laid them in front of Yang Yu, "I've collected these five ancient construction blueprints over the years. I wonder if Mr. Yang could help restore any of them?"
Yang Yu picked up one and glanced at it, then lightly said with a smile, "The Four Symbols Auspicious Formation, very simple. Give me some paper and a pen, and I'll redraw the original for you."
"Good, good, good!" Wen Yishan excitedly took out drawing paper and a brush, and respectfully handed them to Yang Yu.
Yang Yu casually picked up the brush and, with swift strokes...
In less than five minutes, a complete layout appeared before Wen Yishan.
Wen Yishan compared Yang Yu's drawing with the original, hands trembling, "It really can be restored! Mr. Yang, thank you, thank you!"
Seeing Run Yishan so thrilled, Yang Yu couldn't help but be surprised, "This is just the most basic layout. Housekeeper Wen, is there need to be so happy?"
"The most basic layout?" Wen Yishan couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Mr. Yang, you probably don't realize that even the most basic layout is invaluable to our construction industry in Xia Country! If this were auctioned, even though it's not as valuable as the Seven Stars Sky-reaching Array, it could still fetch one or two million at least!"
"That valuable?" Yang Yu was also taken aback. He had intended to restore the remaining four as well but immediately changed his mind.
It wasn't that he wanted to hold back a precious commodity, but rather he didn't want to give such a huge favor all at once, as the other party might not appreciate it.
He had learned this from his experience with Zhang Xiaohui. His unlimited kindness to her only resulted in a breakup call, with her refusing even to meet him, heh heh.
Wen Yishan was also tactful and immediately put away the other four ancient paintings, "Mr. Yang, you have really worked hard today. I'll consult you again when another opportunity arises. Please sign the contract, and also give me a copy of your ID card. When I come to pick you up to go to the villa tomorrow morning, I'll bring both certificates."
Yang Yu signed his name and handed the contract over to Wen Yishan.
Wen Yishan stored the contract safely and said very politely, "Mr. Yang, where are you headed? Let me drive you there first."
Yang Yu shook his head, "No need, Housekeeper Wen can just come pick me up tomorrow."
"Alright, Mr. Yang, then I'll leave first. See you tomorrow," Wen Yishan left the cafe and got back into his car, unable to hide the excitement in his heart, "Yang Yu must be the descendant of a master of ancient architecture, he must be! I've got to get the young miss to cultivate a good relationship with him. If the Wen Family wants to make a breakthrough in the entire real estate industry, we definitely can't do without Yang Yu's help!"
Wen Yishan was still excited when Yang Yu's call came in: "Housekeeper Wen, I forgot to tell you something. Check the original designer of the property thoroughly, that person is an expert. If there indeed was a mistake, it would result in the building tilting or cracking after it's erected."
"If I'm not wrong, the other party did it on purpose to prevent the building from being erected, forcing Mr. Wen to sell the property at a low price. To be able to do this without anyone noticing, the other person must be a genius in architectural design," added Yang Yu.
Although Yang Yu didn't want to mention it initially, thinking of his boss Shen Silin who was also a shareholder, he couldn't help but speak up since it concerned his boss.
He was already quite intelligent, and after "Yin Yang Nine Mysterious Scripture" unlocked, his brain seemed to have been developed a second time, becoming eerily sharp and deepening his insight.
Upon hearing Yang Yu's reminder, Wen Yishan inhaled sharply, "Thank you, Mr. Yang. I'll inform the young miss immediately."
