My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married
Chapter 1076 Experience Sharing
Is this the legendary way of saying the most domineering words in the most ordinary tone? Luo Shui looked at him with admiration.
Zhang Hao drove to the affluent area and reminded him, "Shouldn't you take off your mask? You're making people think you're crazy."
They're already meeting guests, why are they acting so neurotic? Being too eccentric can sometimes be troublesome. Zhang Hao doesn't want that kind of trouble, nor does he want to be the center of attention. Even with those around him, it's best to keep a low profile.
“Oh, sir, you don’t understand. Even with this mask on, I can make them think we’re incredibly capable and mysterious. If you act like nothing’s wrong, they’ll think you don’t have that ability.”
Although Luo Shui has lost his memory, he hasn't lost some of the skills he learned before, and he still understands the psychology of this circle very well.
After listening, Zhang Hao also felt that there was some truth to it.
The most troublesome thing about dealing with these wealthy people is that they are unwilling to listen to you. If this can increase their trust, then it's not necessarily a bad thing.
And so, Luo Shui, wearing a mask, followed Zhang Hao.
The butler, An Yuan, stepped forward with a smile: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Zhang from the Security Investigation Bureau?"
Zhang Hao nodded slightly: "That's right, it's me."
An Yuan looked at the masked man beside him. This masked young man seemed somewhat familiar.
Zhang Hao began by introducing, "This is my assistant. Due to some special reasons, he has to wear a mask. I hope Butler An will understand."
"It's alright, it's alright." An Yuan smiled understandingly and respectfully stepped aside to invite them inside.
This manor is truly extremely luxurious. As soon as you enter, you can see the musical fountain gushing forth under the lights, with water splashing everywhere, a beautiful sight.
This estate is so large that you could drive around and explore it; it truly deserves to be called the city's premier luxury residence.
Zhang Hao appeared calm and composed, appreciating the scenery of the mansion without the slightest hint of unease.
An Yuan was also secretly sizing up the Taoist master he had spent a lot of money to hire.
If he hadn't had some connections in the industry and happened to learn about this mysterious department from a head of a major crime unit, he probably wouldn't have been able to contact this investigator from the Security Investigation Bureau.
He truly deserves to be called a capable person. Most people would act like country bumpkins visiting the city when they come to such a luxurious place, but this gentleman is so carefree and at ease, without any sign of embarrassment.
Even his assistant exudes a calm and composed demeanor.
In fact, upon entering the manor, Luo Shui felt none of the surprise and delight one might expect from someone seeing a top-tier mansion for the first time. He even found everything here quite ordinary, as if the mansion were just like any other street lamp that one could see on the roadside, nothing special.
He even had a faint sense of familiarity.
An Yuan invited them to the living room, arranged for them to sit down, and instructed the kitchen to prepare the food they wanted.
"We have professional chefs here who can cook Western food, Chinese food, and other international specialties. What would you like to eat and drink, Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Hao said calmly, "Just make something simple, there's no need to go to such lengths."
“Me too,” Luo Shui added.
Upon hearing Luo Shui's words, a hint of surprise flashed in An Yuan's eyes, and he couldn't help but cast a probing glance at her.
Luo Shui noticed that the other person was looking at her and was immediately puzzled: "Why is Butler An looking at me like that?"
An Yuan snapped out of his daze, his smile somewhat forced: "It's nothing, I just thought your mask was quite unique, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances at it."
An Yuan excused himself by saying he needed to instruct the kitchen to prepare food, and then left. Before leaving, he said to Zhang Hao and Luo Shui, "Please wait a moment, my wife has to go out for a while and will be back in about an hour. If you're bored, there are entertainment facilities here, and the maid can take you to play. Please don't be shy."
After saying that, An Yuan left in a hurry.
Watching the butler's hurried departure, Luo Shui was completely bewildered. He touched the mask on his face, utterly puzzled: "Is this mask really that scary?"
Zhang Hao glanced at it and almost burst out laughing. The mask was just an ancient painted face mask; there was nothing scary about it at all.
Zhang Hao said, "Perhaps because of our profession, wearing this mask makes you seem unfathomable, even a little scary. Your unconventional behavior might scare the other person."
Luo Shui was overjoyed to hear this, thinking that the steward was far too timid.
An Yuan went to the kitchen and instructed the chef to prepare food for the two guests, while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
It's unbelievable! The young man wearing a mask just now spoke in a tone so similar to that person.
Sigh, although there are indeed people in this world who sound alike and look alike, how could I be so unlucky as to run into one?
The chef quickly prepared the meal, a typical Chinese dish. The chef's skills were superb; the dishes were delicious and flavorful.
Zhang Hao was very satisfied with the meal. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, they made an excuse to check the feng shui of the mansion, and An Yuan agreed on his behalf.
"This manor is quite large. I'll have a maid show you the way..."
Zhang Hao declined the butler's offer: "No need. We don't want to be disturbed when we're checking the feng shui."
An Yuan didn't dare to say anything more, so he told all the security personnel in the manor not to stop Zhang Hao.
First, they visited a residential area.
The residential area of this luxurious estate features a high-rise villa building that is over ten stories high. The villa's design and decoration style is typical of fashionable Western Europe, elegant and minimalist. As soon as you step inside, you can feel the overwhelming aura of wealth.
Recalling his experiences in ancient times, and looking at the wealthy people of today, Zhang Hao couldn't help but sigh, "Whether in ancient or modern times, the lives of the rich have always been consistently comfortable and pleasant."
Luo Shui, however, did not think so.
"Rich people also have their troubles. It can only be said that there are very few truly happy people in this world, and rich people are not necessarily living a carefree life."
Zhang Hao finally couldn't hold back and gave him a flick on the forehead.
Luo Shui gasped when she was hit on the head, clutching the spot where she had been struck, and said with a wronged expression, "Why did Mr. Zhang hit me?"
"I'm beating you up, you ungrateful bastard. Whether you're happy or not depends on your mindset." "You need to change your pessimistic mindset. If you want to learn real skills from me, you must have a positive attitude."
Luo Shui carefully examined Zhang Hao, sensing his otherworldly and serene demeanor, and nodded, saying, "I understand, Mr. Zhang. I will try my best to adjust my mindset."
As the two strolled around, they unknowingly arrived at the top floor of the high-rise villa.
As soon as they stepped inside, the bodyguard standing guard at the entrance of the lobby frowned and stepped forward, blocking their way: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Zhang and Mr. Luo?"
The bodyguards were dressed in black suits, with stun batons strapped to their waists, and were very professionally equipped. However, they still bowed to the two men politely.
"It's us. We're investigating the feng shui here. Could you please move aside so we can go in and take a look?"
Luo Shui stepped forward and spoke gently.
The sound, coupled with the sight of Luo Shui, sent a chill down the spine of the security captain, who couldn't help but glance at Luo Shui a few more times.
"What's wrong, security captain? Are our requests causing you trouble?" Luo Shui continued to ask.
The security captain felt goosebumps all over his body. No, no, he couldn't listen to that sound anymore. If he did, he would definitely have nightmares tonight.
"I'm very sorry." The security captain had a serious, square face, and when he got nervous, his serious expression gave off a strong sense of pressure. "Madam instructed that no one is allowed to enter without her personal permission. Although the butler said that you two could freely explore the manor, this place is an exception, unless you can get Madam's personal permission."
Even before entering, Zhang Hao could sense that this floor was somewhat unusual; the real problem must lie hidden there. But just as he was about to find the key to the problem, he was stopped!
"These rich people just love all this red tape," Zhang Hao thought to himself.
The two, who were stopped, had no choice but to leave. When they went downstairs, they didn't take the elevator but chose to walk down the stairs, just as if they were taking a walk to digest their food.
Walking down the stairs, Luo Shui was a little sullen: "They clearly agreed that we could go anywhere, but in the end, it was just talk. Honestly, can't these people get rid of their habit of only talking nice things?"
Upon hearing his words, Zhang Hao couldn't help but recall his identity.
Although he didn't know the person's true identity, one thing was certain: his errand assistant was definitely a rich second-generation.
Judging from his sarcastic remarks and his understanding of the wealthy circle, I was right after all.
Zhang Hao wanted to test him, so he asked, "If the real trouble is on that floor, and they won't let us go in to check, what do you think we should do?"
“Most rich people are arrogant. If you are respectful to them, they will look down on you and even boss you around. On the contrary, if you act more assertive, they will be much more polite to you…” Luo Shui paused here.
A familiar feeling suddenly welled up in their minds, as if they had thought of something, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.
It's like reaching out to grab something, only to grab a wisp of air.
Luo Shui frowned, somewhat frustrated, and said, "So, if they refuse, we shouldn't force them. We should explain the reasons clearly and leave directly. When they can't take it anymore, they will naturally come back to beg us."
Zhang Hao couldn't help but burst out laughing, clapped his hands, and gave him a thumbs up.
"Your thoughts coincide with mine. It seems we really are on the same wavelength, even thinking about this."
"Hahaha, that's why we're destined to meet. Otherwise, how could I be so lucky to learn these real skills from you?" Luo Shui also put that inexplicable feeling behind her and chatted with Zhang Hao with a smile.
When I got down to the fourth floor, I saw two young women in maid uniforms walking up the stairs, carrying things.
"Wait, where are you going?" Luo Shui saw the two maids and walked up to them curiously, stopping them to ask.
After all, two maids carrying incense, candles, and paper money looked unusual.
The two maids looked at each other, both knowing that Butler An Yuan had hired two truly skilled exorcists to help exorcise evil spirits.
These two must be the ones in front of me, but they opened their mouths, looking as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.
“We are investigating the cause of the haunting and need to understand everything about this place in order to continue our investigation. If we can't find the real source of the haunting, we can't solve the problem of this house being haunted. Therefore, you must cooperate with us in every way. What's wrong? Or has your wife ordered you not to speak carelessly about this matter?”
Luo Shui frowned slightly and spoke to the two maids.
The two maids nodded, and one of them said, "We dare not speak carelessly about this matter."
Another maid quickly added, "If you two want to know the situation, why don't you wait for Madam to return and ask her yourself?"
After saying this, the two maids bowed to them and continued upstairs.
They hadn't gone far when Zhang Hao and Luo Shui could even hear the two maids complaining in hushed tones, seemingly about their mistress engaging in these superstitious activities.
Zhang Hao stroked his chin, his gaze following the departing figures of the two maids, and said thoughtfully, "If nothing unexpected happens, the real problem should be the mistress of this manor."
Luo Shui nodded, then frowned deeply, clearly showing her extreme dislike for the mistress of the manor; even her tone of voice was filled with disgust.
"They're being so secretive, inviting us over to check, but then deliberately blocking that floor from being inspected. They must have something to hide. These people do all sorts of shady things and then try to cover it up afterwards. It's utterly disgusting."
Seeing his follower suddenly display such obvious disgust, Zhang Hao was also somewhat surprised. He frowned and tentatively asked, "Why do you hate this place so much? Do you resent the rich?"
After thinking it over, it seems that only this reason can make sense.
After all, most people wouldn't feel such strong aversion towards customers who are paying them.
Even he himself was indifferent, while Luo Shui was completely different, seemingly very concerned about the matter.
"It's not that I hate the rich, it's just that I feel this customer of ours doesn't seem like a good person."
Luo Shui made no attempt to conceal her emotions when she said this, so when Steward An Yuan walked over, she heard it from afar.
An Yuan, the housekeeper, was a little embarrassed, but he still forced himself to walk over.
"I heard from the security captain that you two wish to inspect the floor where Madam resides?" Butler An Yuan approached and asked politely. (End of Chapter)
