Kathleen had no plans to renovate the place at first. She did not plan to live in it, either. However, her plans changed completely after knowing that Charlie's wife, Claire, had an interior design company.
She planned to renovate the place, but not for living. She wanted to use it as an opportunity to get to know Claire.
Charlie said solemnly, "Ms. Jane, since you're planning to have a full renovation, the current interior Feng Shui wouldn't be a problem anymore. There's no issue with the house's overall Feng Shui. As for the future Feng Shui, we'll need to wait until you've decided on the design. Then, we can make specific adjustments according to the design plan."
Charlie added, "Since you're hoping that your elders can live here with great health, I can give you some tips and suggestions."
Kathleen said quickly, "Mr. Wade, do share your tips with me."
Charlie explained, "It's best to choose a room that ensures longevity, preferably on the first floor for convenience. Try and get a room on the east side with a window. There's a saying where the good Chi enters from the east, and the same concept applies to one's good health and fortune. In addition, the room mustn't be too large. Otherwise, the occupants will lose their
energy very fast. In Feng Shui, a smaller room is said to gather Chi easily. Also, the room should use less natural stone materials for renovation and decoration."
Kathleen was puzzled. "Mr. Wade, I understand most of them, but why should we use less stone materials?"
Charlie replied, "Based on Feng Shui studies, stone materials are indeed good for Feng Shui in terms of wealth. However, as stones are naturally cold, they are not suitable for the bedroom. In fact, the coldness may affect one's health."
Charlie then added, "Our ancestors back in the day had limited scientific understanding. They concluded that the stone would impact one's health by studying Feng Shui, but they can't give a scientific explanation."
"Some time ago, I read a report about the adverse effects of natural stones. Natural stones are
radioactive and will eventually produce radon gas, which is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that may cause lung cancer. Radon gas is inert, colorless, and odorless. The World Health Organization has confirmed that even low
Ov
concentrations of radon, especially those commonly found in residential settings accumulated in time, also pose health risks. It is considered as one of the main reasons for lung cancer, only second to cigarettes. If there are too many stones in the room, those who stay in the room for too long would be greatly impacted by daily radon exposure. Even if one does get lung cancer, they wouldn't have guessed that the natural stone at home was the main cause."
Charlie thought of something and sighed. "From this, we can tell that our ancestors are indeed very wise. They may not have mastered
net
scientific theories or advanced technology in their time, but they found a way to understand all things in the universe with their excellent abilities. From there, they realized the effects of natural stone on one's health. A few centuries or even thousands of years later, scientists finally identified the real reason behind this theory. This confirmed that our ancestors had extremely advanced judgments in this matter." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Kathleen showed great admiration for Feng Shui as well, and agreed with Charlie. "I specialize in economics and management, so I'm not very knowledgeable in terms of science and engineering. This is my first time hearing about radon gas.
However, from what you've just said, it seems like our ancestors do have extraordinary wisdom. It further proves that Feng Chui's divination is not mere nonsense."
Charlie said with a smile, "Ms. Jane, you're still very young. Normally, someone your age would easily dismiss the beliefs in Feng Shui."
Kathleen shook her head. "I've always been in awe of Feng Shui. I don't understand it that much, but I believed in it. Perhaps I was fascinated and influenced by my grandfather's interest in Feng Shui when I was a child."
Charlie nodded in understanding. "In recent years, the number of young people who believe in Feng Shui has dwindled."
Another thought occurred to him and he further added, "Anyway, Ms. Jane, this is all I can see for now. The exterior of this house has excellent Feng Shui. By paying attention to the interior Feng Shui, I'm sure your luck will be smooth sailing."
Kathleen nodded lightly and asked Charlie, "Mr. Wade, how's your service charges? Do you prefer a check or direct transfer?"
Charlie waved his hand and said
indifferently. It's not a big deal, Ms.
Jane, so don't worry about it.

Besides, you've helped my father-in-law a lot with your contribution to the Calligraphy and
Painting Association. I'm just repaying the favor."
