"Don't mess around, it's not convenient for me."
Jian Ning pushed Chen Nan away with a flushed face.
She wasn't stupid.
How could she not know what Chen Nan meant by those words?
After all.
She carried the house for her future son with her...
Later, the two went upstairs.
The scenery was pleasant, and the whole of Jizhou appeared in full view.
"Although the feng shui here is very good, the spiritual energy is a bit lacking. We need to find a way to set up a spirit-gathering formation. Only then can it be considered a treasure trove of feng shui."
Chen Nan was very satisfied with the house.
But it was still a bit short of his psychological expectations.
"Does your family have any high-grade jade?" Chen Nan asked.
Setting up a spirit-gathering formation required spirit stones.
But spirit stones were too rare.
As a second-best option, some top-quality jade could also be used to set up a spirit-gathering formation.
After all, this was a beginner formation.
Jian Ning replied, "There are a few old pieces that my grandfather found back then and has been treasuring."
Chen Nan's heart leaped with joy. "Let's go, let's go and see those pieces of jade at your house."
Jian Ning took Chen Nan directly back home. After all, it wasn't far, even walking would take at most five minutes.
"Why are you here at this hour? Have you eaten? Shall we have a drink, old man?" Seeing Chen Nan appear, Grandpa Jian was overjoyed. If he got him drunk, wouldn't he be able to make the marriage official?
Chen Nan smiled, "I heard that the old man treasures a few pieces of jade, and I wanted to come and take a look!"
Grandpa Jian ordered, "Eldest son, go and get those pieces of jade."
Jian Jianhua was displeased. "Dad, those are our family heirlooms."
"Heirlooms?" Grandpa Jian was angry. "Why don't you give us a grandson, and then you can talk about heirlooms when you don't even have a grandson?"
Jian Jianhua fell silent.
He grudgingly went to the bedroom. Those pieces of jade were locked in a safe by him.
"Grandpa, Chen Nan also bought a house here, the villa number 95 on the highest spot," Jian Ning happily shared the news with her grandfather.
Grandpa Jian was overjoyed, and he wasn't surprised that Chen Nan would buy that villa.
Even though that villa was haunted, he believed in Chen Nan's abilities.
While they were talking, Jian Jianhua reluctantly took out a golden nanmu box. Upon opening it, more than a dozen oval-shaped jade stones appeared in Chen Nan's eyes.
Each of these jade stones was naturally formed and unpolished, and they all had a date-red skin.
Chen Nan clicked his tongue.
These jade stones were indeed treasures; any one of them could be worth millions.
"How is it? These jade stones are good, aren't they?" Grandpa Jian smiled.
"Quite good, but... they can't be used!"
Chen Nan sighed.
The sizes of these jade stones were uneven, making them unsuitable for use as formation bases.
Grandpa Jian vaguely guessed Chen Nan's thoughts and said, "Soft jade is different from jadeite. Soft jade is usually small in volume, making it difficult to find large pieces."
"But jadeite is different. The largest jadeite can weigh hundreds of pounds, or even tons!"
"If you need a large amount of jade, you can consider jadeite."
Chen Nan was aware of this.
However.
The spiritual energy contained in jadeite was far inferior to that of jade.
Although both belonged to jade.
There was a world of difference between them.
As everyone knows, the finest Hetian jade is produced in the Kunlun Mountains.
And Kunlun Mountains are also known as the ancestor of all mountains. Legend has it that the palace of the Queen Mother of the West is located deep within the Kunlun Mountains.
Of course.
These were all legends.
But one thing was undeniable: Kunlun Mountains were the only dragon脉 in Da Xia.
Therefore, the jade stones that survived there possessed spiritual energy.
Most jadeite, however, is produced in Myanmar, and it is very different from the jade from Kunlun Mountains.

"Old man, it's getting late. I'll head back first. I'll come and chat with you again after I move in."
Chen Nan got up to say goodbye.
Then he contacted Sheng Nan.
Sheng Nan drove a white Volkswagen Beetle and got out of the car, asking with concern, "Mr. Chen, how did you find the house? Are you satisfied? Did you encounter anything unclean?"
"I'm very satisfied with the house. Give me the bank card of the previous owner, and I'll transfer the money to him."
"Also, tomorrow, please find someone to clean the house for me. I'll move in the day after tomorrow."
Sheng Nan quickly said, "Okay, okay. Call me anytime if you need anything. Our phones are available 24 hours a day and will not be turned off or out of service!"
After that, Chen Nan returned to the steel factory family compound in the shantytown.
He had planned to eat his dad's barbecue.
But unfortunately, his mother didn't set up her stall because she was in a bad mood.
He returned home just in time for dinner.
"Son is back, quick, wash your hands and eat," Jia Cui said with a smile.
Chen Nan grunted, washed his hands, and returned to the dining table. He picked up a large meat bun and said, with garlic, "Mom and Dad, I have something to tell you."
"Well, I bought a house and I'm thinking we can all move there together on Saturday, the day after tomorrow."
Chen Shan was shocked. "What? You actually bought a house? Why didn't you discuss such a big matter with your mom and me?"
Jia Cui frowned, displeased. "Our son is an adult. Adults should have their own thoughts and opinions. Buying a house is a big deal, but it doesn't require discussing it with us."
"We should learn to respect him. You're not good at this!"
Chen Shan glared at Chen Nan with annoyance.
Chen Nan ignored his father's gaze.
In fact, the reason he treated Jia Cui like his own mother was primarily because she respected his wishes.
In this regard, even his father was not as good as her.
Chen Shan said, "Where did you buy the house?"
Chen Nan whispered, "Villa 95, Half-Mountain Villa."
"Hiss!"
Jia Cui gasped. "How do you have the money to buy a house there? It must not be cheap!"
"That's not right, I heard that house is haunted!" Chen Shan was greatly surprised.
More than the price of the house, he cared more about what lay hidden behind it.
He had heard about this matter from someone.
"Dad, that house is the most high-end and has the best feng shui in Jizhou. I think we can move in," Chen Nan said. "As long as we live there, we definitely won't be looked down upon by Luo Guangyao!"
Chen Shan's heart trembled. He pretended to be calm and said, "Even if it's a haunted house, it's no big deal. We haven't done anything to betray our conscience, so we're not afraid even if there are ghosts!"
Even though he was wary of that house.
But remembering Luo Guangyao's dismissive attitude towards them, he just wanted to prove something to the other party.
Jia Cui, who was on the side, shed tears of emotion. "You two are so thoughtful. Forget living in a mansion in Half-Mountain Villa, I wouldn't regret living here for the rest of my life."
Chen Nan smiled. "Mom, let's not talk about unpleasant things. Eat dinner and get some rest early. Tomorrow we'll pack up, and when the second and third brothers are here on Saturday, we'll move."
"Okay."
Meanwhile.
Dong Haoze came to the Wu family's martial arts hall and said to Wu Mian, "Old Wu, you seem to be in a good mood today!"
Wu Mian laughed heartily. "The house in Half-Mountain Villa has been sold, of course I'm in a good mood!"
Dong Haoze was greatly surprised. "That house has been sold? Who is that daredevil? Doesn't he know it's a haunted house?"
