Bing Tianyi understood well in his heart that if he truly wanted to make money, he had to start with smaller businesses. Most importantly, everything they produced had to be useful.
Now, he had already established a Construction Company. As a Construction Company, the most common sight was bricks; whether for large buildings or rural homes, bricks were essential for building walls.
Thinking of this made Bing Tianyi even more cheerful.
Beside him, Duck Brother quickly approached and asked, "Brother Bing, isn't it a bit early to open a Brick Factory?"
"It's not early. Tomorrow I'll take you to the Brick Factory in the neighboring county to take a look and find out what we need," Bing Tianyi replied with a smile.
Duck Brother nodded eagerly, looking at the rapidly developing county with great enthusiasm.
Half a month later, it seemed that Bing Tianyi had completely buried his feelings about Chen Qian deep within. From the initial heartbreak to now, as time passed, Bing Tianyi had come to terms with it.
Even if Chen Qian were alive now, she would only be suffering from illness and living in pain. Perhaps death was another form of rebirth for Chen Qian.
In the office, Bing Tianyi was seriously reading books on management. Although it was somewhat boring, he knew he would definitely need it in the future.
Suddenly, a hurried knock on the door interrupted him. He looked up, closed the book, and placed it on the nearby shelf. Bing Tianyi called softly, "Come in."
"Brother Bing, something has happened." A robust figure burst into Bing Tianyi's office and spoke clearly.
"What happened? Tell me slowly," Bing Tianyi said earnestly.
"At the construction site, someone fell and died," the man said, sweat pouring down his forehead as he expressed his concern to Bing Tianyi.
"What? Is it our construction team? Who is leading?" Bing Tianyi said as he stood up and rushed outside with the two others.
As they stepped out, the other person said to Bing Tianyi, "Big Brother, it's not the school's Construction Site; it's our new Brick Factory's Construction Site."
"Brick Factory?" Bing Tianyi suddenly stopped and asked the person in front of him.
The person nodded and replied, "Yes, we didn't expect this to happen either. At that time, Duck Brother was installing machines with a few workers. According to Duck Brother, the person intended to go to the restroom, but when he reached a steep slope, he was hit on the head by a falling rock and died."
"Is the person sent to the hospital now?" Bing Tianyi asked anxiously. Since establishing his Construction Company and building the Brick Factory, everything had gone smoothly.
Moreover, before constructing the Brick Factory, things were planned well, and such incidents were not supposed to happen. But now, how could this be?
"They've already been sent to the hospital, but right now they're in the Morgue. Duck Brother said it won't be long before their family might come to cause trouble for our Construction Company," the person frowned and said.
Bing Tianyi thought for a moment and quickly told him, "Brother, go find out discreetly. It would be best to get this person's Ba Zi and then call me. I will take some time to visit the Brick Factory site!"
Upon hearing this, the person nodded in agreement.
Bing Tianyi turned back to his office, grabbed his divination tools, and hurriedly headed toward the Brick Factory.
The small hill formed by yellow earth had already been cleared by workers to create a ten-acre flat area at its midsection. On the left side of the peak, high-quality yellow earth was piled up.
After getting out of the car, Bing Tianyi rushed into the construction site. The newly appointed Zhou Factory Director saw Bing Tianyi arriving and quickly approached him with a helpless sigh, saying, "President Bing, have you been to the hospital?"
"What’s the use of going to the hospital now? Take me to the scene of the incident," Bing Tianyi said with a furrowed brow as he looked at the unusually quiet Brick Factory and spoke directly to Zhou Hui.
Zhou Hui looked dejected and nodded in agreement. This twenty-eight-year-old had been working at the Brick Factory for four or five years, originally hoping to open his own Brick Factory, but was hindered by a lack of funds at home.
Coincidentally, Bing Tianyi was recruiting a factory manager, offering a highly attractive salary. The manager's salary would be ten percent of the annual net profit. To be honest, with an investment of nearly five million to build a modern Brick Factory, producing bricks at a rate of two hundred thousand per day would yield at least seven to eight million in gross profit over the year.
After deducting workers' wages and other expenses, there would still be a minimum of five million in net profit. With five million in net profit, that meant an annual salary of fifty thousand for himself.
Of course, this also tested the ability of a factory manager. If he performed well, he could take home fifty thousand in cash; if not, he might earn only a few thousand each year.
The two walked ahead, and before they reached the incident site, Bing Tianyi stopped and pointed to a three-meter-high earth mound, asking Zhou Factory Director, "Is it under that mound?"
"Yes, that's the place," Zhou Hui replied with a look of surprise.
Upon hearing this, Bing Tianyi felt completely frustrated. During the initial construction of the Brick Factory, he had seriously instructed Duck Brother not to remove the small earth mound to the east. Although it seemed unsightly and sometimes affected operations like bulldozing, it was crucial not to dig it out. If they did, something bad would surely happen.
Now looking at it, the small mound had been smoothed out, and a road stretched right along its base.
"Who allowed you to move this?" Bing Tianyi asked with a frown.
"This..." Zhou Hui hesitated.
"Alright, if you don't want to say it, then don't," Bing Tianyi sighed and began walking up toward the peak. Although he knew that something had already happened, if they didn't make appropriate adjustments to the feng shui of this area, more issues were likely to arise.
Zhou Hui followed closely behind Bing Tianyi. Once they reached the top of the hill, Bing Tianyi began to observe carefully based on his knowledge.
To the due east of the small hill was where two peaks connected, forming a valley in between. During the day, the sun rose from the east and shone perfectly on the eastern side of the small hill.
The road that was cut off by the workers at the Brick Factory happened to be the area illuminated by the rising sun.
After observing for a moment, Bing Tianyi said seriously to Zhou Hui, "Since you have already opened this road, let's leave it at that. However, after this matter is resolved, remember to buy at least three meters high cypress trees from other places and plant them all along the edge of the road."
"Okay, Boss Bing. Is there anything else?" Zhou Hui asked curiously.
Just as he finished speaking, Bing Tianyi's phone rang. Upon answering, a voice whispered to him, "Brother Bing, I have found out the other party's Ba Zi. I will send it to you via text right now."
"Alright, as soon as possible. The sooner, the better," Bing Tianyi quickly replied.
After hanging up, Bing Tianyi looked at Zhou Hui and said earnestly, "My backpack is over there; please bring it to me."
Zhou Hui jogged over and handed Bing Tianyi his backpack. Bing Tianyi opened it and took out a few sheets of fresh newspaper. He then lit three incense sticks, opened his phone to memorize the other party's Ba Zi, and began divining.
Zhou Hui had heard before that Bing Tianyi was skilled in divination but didn't expect him to use it in this situation. Seeing this scene, he wanted to laugh but dared not; he could only suppress his amusement from the side.
After completing the divination, Bing Tianyi began to interpret the results.
After careful calculation, Bing Tianyi sighed and packed his belongings before asking Zhou Hui in front of him, "Have you reported this to the police?"
"Not yet. If we report it now, it might adversely affect our Brick Factory's future development," Zhou Hui said with some concern.
Bing Tianyi slung his backpack over his shoulder and looked directly at Zhou Hui, saying plainly, "Report it. Let the police handle this matter."
"Boss Bing, if we report it, our Brick Factory might not be able to continue operating," Zhou Hui said with a furrowed brow. He did not want to see their nearly half-month effort and investment in production go to waste just like that.
Seeing the serious expression on Zhou Hui's face, Bing Tianyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have this under control. Besides, our Brick Factory has all the necessary documentation, and this incident was not caused by any negligence on our part; it was a murder. The police are here, which might help reduce the impact on our Brick Factory."
"What? Someone was murdered? How do you know this, Mr. Bing?" Zhou Hui asked in surprise.
"That's not something you need to ask about. Just call the police," Bing Tianyi replied, knowing that Duck Brother at the hospital must be in a state of panic. To stabilize the emotions of the deceased's family, Bing Tianyi realized he had to take charge himself.
After descending the mountain, Bing Tianyi had Xiaocheng drive him straight to the county hospital.
Before long, they arrived at the hospital entrance. After getting out of the car, Bing Tianyi seriously told Xiaocheng, "You need to go back to the company and inform Financial Director Murong Qing to prepare fifty thousand in cash."
Xiaocheng nodded in agreement and hurriedly drove away.
Bing Tianyi took a moment to calm himself before heading to the morgue entrance. As soon as he appeared, he heard a Young Man in the distance shout, "That’s the big boss of Brick Factory."
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Bing Tianyi. To be honest, at first, these people didn’t believe that such a young kid could be so wealthy. They were momentarily stunned until someone nearby whispered, "Is that true?"
"I can confirm it; he is," the Young Man continued.
"Get him!" The leader was a middle-aged man in his forties who appeared to be a brother of the deceased. Without saying a word, he charged directly toward Bing Tianyi.
Seeing this, Bing Tianyi realized there was nowhere left to dodge. In a critical moment, unexpectedly, a rat rushed out from the side and stood firmly in front of Bing Tianyi, saying loudly and clearly, "What do you all want? The person is already dead; we will take responsibility. If you make a move now, don’t blame us for not caring about this matter later."
"Hmph! The person died on your construction site, and you're saying such things now? What kind of nonsense is this?" several middle-aged men scolded Bing Tianyi directly.
