156. The 9,000-character chapter of black magic(2/3)
The post-production and promotion of the movie were going on at the same time, and they were also preparing to review the performance. However, Wang Pengyu didn't need to pay attention to these things. After being in love with Tao Xue for a few days, he received a call from Jiang Yao and had to separate from Tao Xue.
Without the help of Fei Lecker, I took the bus to St. Louis alone.
St. Louis is also a famous city in California. Zhang Jinglei got in touch with Mr. Bowen. It was said that it was a connection made during his previous work. Not long ago, he happened to meet Bowen at the Ceramics Expo, so he took the opportunity to promote the ceramics that the company represents.
Give it to the other person.
Zhu Jianlong put Jiang Yao, who had just graduated, into the position of manager of the business department. It was not because of any personal relationship, but because of Jiang Yao's outstanding business ability.
Wang Pengyu asked Jiang Yao to go to St. Louis City to negotiate with Mr. Bowen alone. Jiang Yao's excellent business ability, as well as the influence of a Rolls-Royce Silver Angel and two elite bodyguards sent by Feileker, made Jiang Yao
The specific details of the transaction were easily negotiated with the other party, and the 50 million export business could be signed only after Wang Pengyu came over to see if there were any problems with the contract.
In addition, the three business partners introduced by Mr. Bowen, after seeing the samples brought by Jiang Yao, all had preliminary ideas of cooperation with Chengda Building Materials Group Company, and promised that if there is no problem with the quality of the ceramics, they will add more in the future.
The import quantity can also be extended to cooperation with other building materials.
China is a labor-intensive country with extremely low labor costs. In addition, the country vigorously creates foreign exchange and has a high export tax rebate rate. Therefore, the export price is relatively low. For Americans, importing building materials from China is much more cost-effective than buying them locally.
.
Wang Pengyu arrived in St. Louis, met Jiang Yao who picked him up, and went directly to Mr. Bowen's company to sign the contract. Although the United States is prosperous, industrial pollution is much more serious than China, and there are steel jungles everywhere. Wang Pengyu is like this
The Taoist fortune-teller is very unaccustomed to it, so it would be better to resolve the matter here as soon as possible and return to China.
Arriving at Mr. Bowen's company, Jiang Yao told the blond and busty receptionist that she was looking for a contract with Mr. Bowen. After the front desk called to inform Mr. Bowen, he politely introduced Wang Pengyu and Tao Xue into Mr. Bowen's office not long after.
.
Wang Pengyu has been in the United States for several days. Now he has just met the first foreign customer who cooperates with his company. He saw Mr. Bowen, who was about fifty years old and tall. His expression was serious and his hair was neatly combed.
From the outside, he looks very typical of Americans, but there is a strange look in Wang Pengyu's eyes.
When Mr. Bao En saw Wang Pengyu, his stern face showed a smile. He stood up from behind the desk, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Wang, I never thought that a partner from the far East could be so young and promising."
Wang Pengyu shook hands with the other party. Although he could barely understand what the other party said, he still asked Tao Xue to translate. Then he smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Bowen."
The Americans did not have the usual courtesy of the Chinese. After greeting each other, they immediately got down to business. They took out a thick contract from the drawer and said: "This is the contract we have negotiated. I wonder if Mr. Wang has read it?"
"
He paused and then said casually: "I heard that Mr. Wang just came back from Mr. Feileker's drinking party. If I had known that Mr. Wang and Mr. Feileker knew each other, I wouldn't have to spend so much time helping him.
Your company has attracted customers."
Before Wang Pengyu came, he had read the draft of the contract that Tao Xue had brought out. It was written in both Chinese and English. Tao Xue also faxed it back to the company so that a specialized person could read it and make sure there were no problems. Wang Pengyu came here just to implement the contract.
Hearing Mr. Bowen's probing questions, Wang Pengyu nodded: "I have some relationship with Mr. Feileker. But there is no need to use the personal relationship in business, and Mr. Feileker's industries are all media companies and
It’s better not to trouble him for help with film companies and construction businesses.”
As long as the other party knows that he is familiar with Feileker, he will not dare to do anything in the trade.
After signing the contract and stamping the official seal of Chengda Building Materials Group Co., Ltd., Wang Pengyu suddenly asked: "Mr. Bowen, please forgive me for asking, have you been feeling low in energy recently, often inexplicably weak or have dark eyes?
"
Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment, but she still translated it according to Wang Pengyu's meaning.
Mr. Bowen looked at Wang Pengyu strangely: "How do you know? Is Mr. Wang still a doctor?"
He has often been anemic recently. Not only that, but his wife and three children are also like this. However, after going to the hospital for a checkup, it was found that it was not anemia, and food poisoning was suspected. After the checkup, there was no such problem, and the condition was not resolved afterwards.
It was too serious, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.
Wang Pengyu saw that Bao En's body was entangled with a strange evil spirit, which was somewhat different from Chinese spells. He didn't know if it was the black magic of Western wizards. He hesitated for a moment and then said: "Mr. Bao En, do you believe me? Your situation is not the same.
The disease was caused by other people. I wonder if Mr. Bowen has offended any strange people recently?"
Mr. Bowen frowned and hesitated before saying, "What is a strange person?"
Wang Pengyu explained: "It's like the black magicians and wizards in American legends."
Mr. Bowen's expression suddenly changed, and his breathing became heavier: "Mr. Wang, do you mean that my situation is caused by a dark wizard?"
In the United States, names such as black wizards and black magicians are not good. Especially in the Middle Ages, these were regarded as heretics and were subject to fire. Although there are very few rumors of wizards recently, there are still some strange things that are difficult to explain scientifically.
Happened, many people regarded it as the work of a black wizard.
Jiang Yao saw that she was signing a contract and somehow got involved in these supernatural things. She couldn't help frowning and said to Wang Pengyu: "Ayu, what do you mean, why do you say these things, what kind of black wizard, black magician,
How can such a person exist?"
Wang Pengyu originally didn't want Jiang Yao to know about this, but he saw that the curse on Mr. Bowen was very strange and clever. Although the evil spirit was not strong, the curse was very powerful. It was rare to see the legendary black magic. Naturally, he wanted to experience it.
I had to ask Jiang Yao to help translate, and said calmly: "Miss Jiang Yao, just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Just translate it according to my meaning."
It seems that I need to learn some English on my own in the future. Those simple words in junior high school are really difficult to communicate with others on complex issues.
Jiang Yao hummed, but she still acted as translator for Wang Pengyu and Wang Pengyu.
"Mr. Bowen, we Chinese have some strange abilities. Just like the magicians in your country, I saw that you seemed to be under a spell by others, so I asked more questions." Wang Pengyu continued with a smile.
said.
Mr. Bowen suddenly remembered the woman with messy hair, weird dress, and a somewhat crazy look that his family saw when they were visiting the supermarket. At that time, the weird woman smiled weirdly at him and startled him. That was that day.
Later, my family showed symptoms of anemia. When I heard Wang Pengyu's words, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
He took a deep breath and tried to look more natural: "I don't know how Mr. Wang saw it, so what should I do?"
Wang Pengyu thought for a while and then said: "It seems that the curse you received did not fall directly on you. It is probably that the curse was placed on the place where you live, and everyone living there will be affected. I need to go to the place where you live to take a look."
OK."
Mr. Bowen nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes! My wife, son and a pair of daughters are all like this."
"I also invite Mr. Wang to come and take a look at my home. As long as Mr. Wang helps me lift the damn black wizard's curse, I promise to help Mr. Wang persuade other business partners to import building materials from your company." Mr. Bowen looked extremely anxious.
, couldn't help but stood up and said to Wang Pengyu anxiously.
Wang Pengyu waved his hand and said: "Business is business. Don't confuse it with this. I just don't want it to affect the trade between us, so I told you this after signing the contract."
Mr. Bowen was a little surprised, but he immediately said: "I understand, I will take Mr. Wang to my home now!"
Concerned about his own safety, Mr. Bowen naturally did not dare to delay at all. With the enthusiasm of starting a business, he immediately drove Wang Pengyu to his ** villa next to a small forest.
The architectural style and materials of houses in the United States are quite different from those in China. Most of them are small villa-style houses. This is related to the fact that there are not many adults in the United States.
Mr. Bowen is a small real estate developer. His family is well-off and he lives in a good place. The villa is hidden among the mangroves and flowers. A gravel path extends to the door of the house. There is a small river flowing slowly next to it. There are many deck chairs on the river bank.
And huge sun umbrellas, convenient for nearby residents to fish or chat by the river.
Mr. Bowen's car did not drive into the garage in the yard, but parked outside the house. He politely asked Wang Pengyu and Jiang Yao to get out of the car, and then said: "This is where I usually live. My wife should be at home now."
, the three children are in school during the day.”
He briefly introduced the situation at home, led Wang Pengyu and Jiang Yao into the courtyard, and said with a wry smile: "After hearing what Mr. Wang said, I remembered that I met a strange woman in the supermarket about a month ago. She
She looked at me weirdly, and then her body started to behave like this, but I have never seen her before, so I don’t know why she wanted to harm me.”
Wang Pengyu entered the courtyard and took a look. After mastering the art of observing Qi and opening up the netherworld, he could indeed easily see the direction of the earth's Qi. He did not need to use a nine-turn compass to judge clearly.
He waved his hand and said: "You don't have to go inside the house to see. Even if the black wizard casts spells, he can only set them up outside the yard, which is somewhat similar to our Chinese Feng Shui magic circle."
Wang Pengyu gathered his magic power and looked around with his eyes for a while, and found that there were six places where the aura of death was constantly coming out, forming a six-pointed star array, but it seemed to be controlled by something. It gathered and formed, and used the aura of death to form a curse spell.
Curse those who live in the house.
Chinese Feng Shui magic circles can also attract evil spirits to harm others, but they are basically like the Tang family's Four Ultimate Killing Arrays. They rely on the strong evil spirits to affect a person's luck, thereby causing disasters, illness, or misfortunes.
When it comes to taking people's lives, it's not as good as this black magic that directly uses evil energy to cast spells to harm others.
Xuanmen warlocks can also cast spells in this way, but they have to cast the spells themselves and cannot use the formation to cast spells.
The effect of this six-pointed star array is more like the attacking and killing arrays such as Qimen Dunjia, but judging from the way it uses evil energy, it is also a type of Feng Shui array. This really makes Wang Pengyu feel strange.
Wang Pengyu often heard about Western magic, as well as Thai head-lowering techniques, etc., which are far inferior to the authentic Taoist magic in China. Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that the rumors are untrue and that Western witchcraft is actually quite special.
In this place, you can use this evil spirit to set up a curse circle. Even Wang Pengyu himself would find it difficult to do this.
He took Jiang Yao and Bao En to a red leaf tree outside the yard and said lightly: "Mr. Bao En, dig underneath and see what's buried inside."
Bao En didn't know that Wang Pengyu came here just for a casual look and said he had buried something. Although he had heard that there were many strange people in mysterious China, he still entered the yard with hesitation and took out a shovel.
Following him was a middle-aged woman with shaggy hair, wearing a nightgown and sleepy eyes, who was looking at Wang Pengyu and Jiang Yao with doubtful eyes.
Mr. Bowen used to be a construction worker on a construction site, and later he became a contractor and then the owner of a construction company. He has not done such physical work in person for a long time, but he exercises regularly and his body has not been slowed down by being pampered. He is still swinging a shovel.
It didn't take long for him to dig a hole a foot deep under the tree. He turned up a ball of black cloth with an extremely smelly smell.
Except for Wang Pengyu, Jiang Yao and the other three people all looked at the black cloth with wide eyes and shock, wondering how this strange thing could appear under the tree.
It took a long time for Bao En to come back to his senses. He looked at Wang Pengyu in shock and asked with a trembling voice: "Mr. Wang, what on earth is this...?"
Wang Pengyu smiled and said as if talking to himself: "That's it."
"If you want to know what it is, just open it and take a look, but it's best to wear rubber gloves."
Bowen quickly ran into the yard and quickly found a pair of black rubber gloves. He endured the stench and slowly opened the black cloth.
Everyone was shocked to discover that this black cloth was not really black cloth. It was obviously dyed black with dried blood. Inside it was the mummy of a black cat that had been disemboweled and had its internal organs taken out!
Jiang Yao's face suddenly turned pale. It was obviously broad daylight, but she suddenly felt a chilly wind flying up. She couldn't help but move closer to Wang Pengyu.
