CHAPTER 1130: CHAPTER 1129: BURYING THE CRYSTAL COFFIN

After extensive discussions between Su Wen and Su Group’s real estate company-related executives, engineers, designers, and other responsible parties, it was finally decided that the original plans for the land at the unfinished building site would be entirely scrapped. The whole design would be based on Master Liu’s blueprint, which follows the coffin-shaped layout.

In this scenario, the bottom three floors of the planning map are designed as a shopping mall and underground parking lot, while above it is a massive central plaza surrounded by shops, with residential areas above or beside the retail outlets.

Despite the considerable waste of land in this planning and design, there was no other choice.

Since the bidding and acquisition of the unfinished building land, incidents continually occurred. First, a Feng Shui master and his apprentice were killed in a car accident, Secretary Lin almost lost his life, followed by the uncle and nephew farmer workers dying mysteriously inside.

Su Wen always felt that things weren’t that straightforward.

Thus, now that Master Liu has found a way to break the predicament, it is the best solution and carries the least risk.

If the shops built in the end still aren’t valuable, the land can just be used as a holding piece. According to Jinling’s expansion, development will eventually reach this area.

So, Su Wen and Su Group have already prepared for financial loss during this initial phase.

On the other side, the order of nine crystal coffins commissioned by Master Liu has been completed.

These crystal coffins differ from stone coffins, and thanks to current technology, after making a model, crystal can be poured in, allowing all nine coffins to be rapidly produced.

Lastly, both the interior and exterior of the crystal coffins are engraved with talismans meant to suppress evil spirits.

Just like Liu Bowen used to do.

Ultimately, the nine crystal coffins only cost less than one million.

Master Liu also understood that Su Wen and Su Group needed to expedite the process, so once informed the nine giant crystal coffins were completed, he and his apprentice went to inspect them and found them to be even better than expected.

However, Apprentice Liu seemed puzzled and asked, "Master, do you really think these things work?"

"Of course, they follow the ancestral Master Liu’s guidance. For now, I haven’t found the best item to break the predicament and suppress Feng Shui, so these will have to suffice."

As for Master Yuan from the southwest, he recklessly dared to have those nine coffins dug up; if the evil spirits didn’t take his life, whose life would they take?

Apprentice Liu trusted what his master said; there was definitely no issue.

Su Wen was in a meeting with other executives when his phone rang—it was Steward Su calling.

During this time, Steward Su frequently interacted with Master Liu, along with the expenses of those crystal coffins, the Su family paid out of pocket without including it in Su Group’s accounts. This was because Su Wen didn’t want outsiders to know; otherwise, no one would dare buy a house there.

"Family Head, I have something to tell you; is it convenient?"

Steward Su said from the other side.

"Hold on, I’m in a meeting right now."

Su Wen replied.

After the meeting concluded, Su Wen and Secretary Xiao Li returned to his office.

Secretary Xiao Li was definitely not as competent as Secretary Lin, but Secretary Lin was still resting. After the flower pot fell on his head, luckily not causing a concussion, it truly scared him, likely still not recovered.

Su Wen and Steward Su had visited Secretary Lin at the hospital, and Su Wen encouraged Secretary Lin to continue resting until fully recovered before returning to work.

However, Su Wen didn’t know Secretary Lin was considering leaving Su Group.

Now that Su Wen looked at Secretary Li, he realized he needed to hire another secretary because Xiao Li seemed lacking clarity.

"Chairman Su, here’s the contract you need to sign."

"Leave it here."

Su Wen said.

Then he picked up his phone to call Steward Su back and asked, "What did you mention earlier?"

"Family Head, it’s like this: Master Liu had already contacted me, saying that batch of crystal coffins has been made. Master Liu has already inspected them, and once the rituals are performed, they can be buried back, allowing construction on the site to commence."

"Are you sure?"

Su Wen asked.

"It’s true, a call came directly from Master Liu."

"Personally oversee this matter."

Su Wen was somewhat afraid.

So, he eventually entrusted Steward Su to handle it.

Of course, Steward Su was someone he trusted, so he had no choice but to entrust it to him.

After hanging up with Steward Su, Su Wen sighed, feeling that he was inviting trouble for himself. But he understood there was no choice; hopefully, next time the land auction, the city government would favor Su Group, given Su Group solved such a major problem for them.

...

Steward Su hung up the phone with Su Wen and then called Master Liu, saying, "Master Liu, Chairman Su has given me full responsibility for this matter. What’s the next step?"

"I’ve calculated the day; work should start at precisely nine in the morning tomorrow. Then start excavation at that location to bury those crystal coffins back."

"Is that all there is to do?"

"Certainly not, I will cast rituals on the crystal coffins."

"But underground, they’re supposed to build three basements, requiring very deep excavation. Isn’t burying these crystal coffins there going to mean digging even deeper?"

"They can be encased in cement for sealed burial beneath as long as others don’t damage them."

Master Liu said.

Steward Su thought that was indeed plausible.

If buried at five to six meters deep, surrounded by a cement pour, providing protection to these crystal coffins, for the deep excavation of the basement as long as they don’t touch these coffins, it should be fine.

Moreover, while these coffins appear large, the unfinished building site is even larger.

"All right, I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning."

"I will have those crystal coffins delivered on time tomorrow."

...

Time passed extremely fast.

Early the next day, when Su Wen drove to the Group’s office, Steward Su drove himself to Master Liu’s residence.

Upon reaching the suburban house where Master Liu lived, he knocked on the door outside.

Master Liu and his apprentice gathered their ritual items, then got into Steward Su’s car, and Steward Su drove towards the unfinished building site.

Upon arriving outside, Steward Su didn’t dare enter.

"Master Liu, Apprentice Liu, I’ll wait for you here!"

"That’s fine."

Master Liu replied.

Master Liu and his apprentice took their items and went over to the unfinished building site, while Steward Su called Manager Han, instructing him to follow Master Liu’s plans.

Manager Han had been waiting at the construction site for Master Liu and his apprentice since morning. Now seeing them arrive and the nine crystal coffins delivered by large trucks wrapped in yellow and red cloth, not yet unloaded.

"Master Liu."

Manager Han said.

"Manager Han, have people at precisely nine o’clock begin excavation at the site marked with lime powder, about seven to eight meters deep, then pour cement for burial."
