This city simulation game can affect reality.

Inside the activity center, in a specially decorated room, the atmosphere was rustic and tranquil.

"Boss, this is Master Shi Jian, who is proficient in ancient physiotherapy and is famous for his bone setting techniques."

"This is Master Sun Anyun, who has a deep understanding of the Five Elements and Six Qi theory."

Led by Hu Qian, two men dressed in traditional Chinese jackets walked in.

Chen Jun stood up to greet them, his gaze calmly sweeping over the two of them.

Master Shi was robust with broad, thick hands, and was probably around fifty years old.

Master Sun is slightly younger, with delicate features and a gentle demeanor.

"Boss Chen, it's an honor to meet you." Both men bowed slightly and gave Chen Jun a simple greeting.

"You're too kind, please have a seat."

Chen Jun, following his usual hospitality, gestured for Hu Qian to serve tea, while he engaged in conversation with her.

"Manager Hu gave me a general introduction to your skills; the concept is very novel. But seeing is believing, so I wonder if I'll have the honor of experiencing your techniques firsthand?"

"I've been very busy lately, and my shoulders have been a bit sore from time to time."

Hu Qian had already revealed Chen Jun's intentions during their initial contact, so the two of them were naturally prepared.

After some discussion, it was decided that Master Shi would go first.

"Boss Chen, please lie down now."

He gestured to Chen Jun and led him to a padded physiotherapy bed.

Chen Jun did as instructed.

Master Shi did not directly touch his shoulders and neck, but first used three fingers to gently press several specific acupoints on his ankle.

A feeling of soreness and distension immediately spread along the meridians of my calves.

"The three Yin meridians of the foot begin here, and the root of shoulder and neck ailments lies below." He then slowly pushed upwards along the inner side of the calf, his finger techniques varying in pressure.

When the finger force reached the inside of the knee, Chen Jun suddenly felt a slight numbness in the corresponding shoulder blade.

"You're starting to feel it?"

Chen Jun nodded.

Master Shi chuckled, his hands continuing their work: "The human body is like mountains and rivers, and qi and blood are like streams. If the upstream is blocked, the downstream will surely dry up."

"What we do is dredge the river channels and guide the water back to its proper course."

The most magical moment, I have to say, is when the fingertips guide the movement to the arm.

Master Shi placed one hand on Chen Jun's elbow and the other hand about an inch above his neck and shoulder, and suddenly let out a short exhale.

Chen Jun felt a warm current travel from his elbow to his shoulder and neck, and his stiff muscles relaxed on their own.

"Use your Qi to guide and regulate the stagnant Qi in your body," Master Shi explained slowly, his breathing steady.

Chen Jun sat up, stretched his shoulders, neck, and arms, and felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

This so-called "mountain and river bone setting" has a far deeper and longer-lasting effect than simple muscle massage.

As Hu Qian stated, the principle is more like using a resonant force to guide the body's internal balance back to normal.

It's like using a magnet to attract another magnet that's just a thread away.

The former pulls the latter, until it permeates the whole body.

"Excellent technique, Master Shi's skills are indeed well-deserved."

"Mr. Chen, you flatter me. I was merely following ancient methods and adapting to the circumstances," Master Shi said humbly, stepping aside.

"Well then, it's my turn to make a fool of myself," Master Sun said with a smile.

This time, without making any physical movements, Sun Yun'an examined Chen Jun's face and said, "Please tell me your birth date and time, Boss Chen."

Chen Jun truthfully reported his date of birth.

Upon hearing this, Master Sun immediately closed his eyes and began to pinch the skin, seemingly deducing: "A person with a strong metal element is prone to irritability in autumn. They need to nourish their lungs and kidneys, as well as their liver blood."

"How exactly does it need to be done?" Having witnessed Shi Jian's massage, Chen Jun was even more serious and curious than before.

Even though I'm not seriously ill, it wouldn't hurt to get a few preventative shots first.

"Boss Chen, do you have any tea sets here?"

"Of course." Chen Jun looked up at Hu Qian beside him.

The latter understood, pushed open the door and left, returning a few minutes later with a porcelain tea set.

Master Sun took out several small paper packets and a glass bottle containing amber-colored honey from his bag.

"This is an autumn dew paste made by sun-drying loquat blossoms picked during the spring equinox, along with a few wild medicinal herbs, and then drying them during the hottest days of summer."

Place the medicinal herbs into the teapot, and Master Sun pours in an appropriate amount of hot water.

After brewing, he placed two cups of tea in front of himself and Chen Jun respectively.

He picked up his own cup first and drank it all in one gulp: "Boss Chen, please don't take offense. It's a family tradition that the doctor must taste the food first, firstly to verify its medicinal properties, and secondly to reassure the customer."

Chen Jun expressed his understanding, picked up his own glass, and slowly drank it down.

The taste wasn't anything special; it was light and refreshing with a hint of herbal fragrance, not as bitter as I had imagined.

But after the medicine slid into the stomach, a warm current spread throughout the body.

My hands and feet, which were originally cold, gradually became warm, and my mind became much clearer as well.

Master Sun observed Chen Jun's changing expression and smiled, "The fact that it's effective in the early stages shows that Mr. Chen has a good physical foundation, but there are indeed signs of internal imbalance. Long-term targeted dietary conditioning can't guarantee you won't get sick, but it will ensure you have plenty of energy."

Chen Jun put down his teacup and nodded.

Having experienced it firsthand, he was convinced that these two men were the wise men he needed.

If we combine this with the restorative effects of the [undisturbed hot spring], the activity center's health and wellness framework will begin to take shape.

Over the next half hour, Chen Jun expressed his willingness to recruit them to his two partners.

The negotiations went quite smoothly, after all, he offered so much.

......

......

In the afternoon, Lao Zhou walked into Chen Jun's office.

"Mr. Chen, breaking news, Yunhai has made a decision..."

"Just as you predicted, they're selling off assets to try and save themselves."

"So fast? It seems Yunhai's financial chain is more fragile than expected. I thought it could hold out for at least another month or two." Chen Jun raised an eyebrow.

"However... it's worth noting that their list is very strange and seems to have a big problem."

Old Zhou placed an asset list on the table:

Thirty acres of land reserved for future development.

Logistics transit warehouses and adjacent land plots near the provincial highway.

A themed restaurant that has been operating for many years.

And several peripheral industries.

Looking at the contents, Chen Jun felt his heart race: "These are their most valuable assets, their most treasured possessions. Even if Yunhai is incredibly stupid, he wouldn't be unaware of their value."

Under normal circumstances, when a company is trying to save itself, it will prioritize selling off some marginal assets.

Yunhai's "clearance sale" right from the start is really unusual and a bit excessive.

"I also find it strange. It doesn't seem like they're trying to survive, but rather they're desperately trying to empty themselves out to achieve some ulterior motive."

Chen Jun leaned back in his chair, his eyes slightly closed, as the various scenes that had occurred over the past few months unfolded in his mind.

Many clues that were previously uncertain have, with the appearance of this list, become completely connected like scattered beads at this moment.

He suddenly realized everything.

Feeling a chill run down his spine, Chen Jun beckoned to Old Zhou and whispered something in his ear.

Soon, an expression of disbelief appeared on Lao Zhou's face, but more than that, it was one of realization and joy.
