Chapter 1114 – Fengshui

Feng Yu looked out of the helicopter and was shocked.

This is the world-renowned Russian Mansion?

Feng Yu is astonished by the size of it!

Looking down from the top, the round roofs of the mansion are glittering gold color and look like golden onions.

The mansion is next to the Moscow river, and there is a man-made lake! The land area is enough to build a housing estate for more than 100,000 people in China!

Feng Yu knew Russia is famous for its luxurious mansions. Still, he did not know their mansions can be so magnificent.

Feng Yu understand that it is common for nobles to build mansions of such scales during the Feudal period. After all, the world’s most grand palace is in China, followed by Russia.

It is almost the 21st century, yet Russia still allows its people to build such mansions.

This is only in Russia, and it is not possible in the US. Even Bill Gates can only build his mansion in a small city.

Kirilenko’s mansion is in Moscow, next to the Grand Kremlin Palace.

“Fly around my estate first. I want to show Feng. Feng, what do you think? Don’t you think my mansion looks grand-looking down from the top?” Kirilenko asked proudly. Feng Yu’s estates in China and the US are nothing compared to his.

Even Bill Gates’s mansion cannot be compared to his!

“Brother Ki, did you use gold paint to paint your roof?”

Kirilenko looks at Feng Yu in disdain. “Those are real purple gold!”

Purple gold is an alloy of gold and metal. It is harder and shinier than gold. Also, it does not need much maintenance.

In Europe, especially in East Europe, purple gold symbolized the wealth and status of the nobles. Russia is the world’s biggest Purple gold producer, and Feng Yu remembers their mining company owns one Purple gold mine.

Don’t think that Purple gold is an alloy, and it is cheap. Compared to gold, the prices are about the same.

The ‘onions’ roofs are all covered in Purple gold. No wonder the construction cost of this mansion is outrageously high.

Wait a minute. Why is the shape of this mansion so familiar?

Feng Yu looked carefully at the estate and realized what it is.

Some parts of the estate are not completed, and once those buildings are completed, the estate is built according to the Eight Trigrams!

“Brother Ki, didn’t you get the most famous architect in Russia to design your estate?” Feng Yu wondered if this is what they call an East-West fusion design.

“That’s right. I also hired the most famous ancient castle restoration designer from France, the most famous Mansion architect from the US, and a Fengshui Master from China. How is it? What do you think of my Mansion’s Fengshui?” Kirilenko asked proudly. All the designers and architects he hired are world-renowned.

Huh??? Fengshui Master?

Feng Yu wants to tell Kirilenko that even he does not know how many of the Fengshui masters in China are real masters.

But this Eight Trigram design looks like the real thing.

“Brother Ki, I don’t know much about Fengshui. But since the Master says it’s good, then it must be good.” Feng Yu replied.

“You cannot tell what this formation is?” Kirilenko asked. “This is impossible. That Master told me that this is China’s most famous Fengshui formation. He said that all Chinese can tell what this formation is.”

Feng Yu thought for a while and replied. “Maybe it is because the construction is not completed. If you let me guess, I think it is China’s most ancient and famous Taichi Bagua formation!”

“Hahaha... That’s right. Taichi Bagua formation! This formation will help me gather wealth, fortune, and longevity.” Kirilenko repeated the name with his lousy Mandarin.

Feng Yu start to recall. What sort of Fengshui Formation is this Taichi Bagua formation? Even if this is a Fengshui formation, are you sure if this is not used for selecting graves?

There is a Bagua village in China, and Feng Yu can’t remember if the village is set up by Liu Bowen or Zhuge Liang. But that village doesn’t seem to be prosperous.

Maybe it does increase longevity, but Feng Yu is not sure. Since Brother Ki felt this is true, then it should be.

“Did you see the mountain and the river by the mansion? This is the best Fengshui spot. The exterior is built according to Bagua formation, and the interior has a Taichi formation. That man-made lake will have two pavilions, and it is built according to your traditional Chinese pavilion.” Kirilenko replied excitedly.

Feng Yu wanted to ask Kirilenko. There is a river beside, why do you still need a lake? Don’t you think it is unnecessary? Having more water in your estate means better Fengshui?

“After this is completed, there will be 108 rooms, and it is according to that... celestial stars formation. That Master had asked me to build 365 rooms, but we can only build 108 rooms with 360 windows due to a lack of space.”

Feng Yu thought for a while before he understands what Kirilenko is talking about. Your father is not staying with you. What’s the point of building sure a big mansion?

108 rooms... even if change a room every day, and after deducting the days you are in the US or China, one year will have pass before you can sleep in every room.

Russians also like to live in big houses?

Ancient Chinese houses are big, with many rooms. They have many children, and wealthy families have more than a dozen children and many more grandchildren.

But what’s the point of having so many rooms when you don’t want to have many children? In ancient times, Russians have slaves, servants, etc. But all you have now is some helpers and bodyguards. Is there a need to build this massive mansion?

Your mansion is so big, and you need to hire lots of helpers and bodyguards. Never mind. With Brother Ki’s fortune, he can easily afford this.

“Lev, land the helicopter,” Kirilenko instructed. “Feng, let me show you the rooms of the mansion. You will surely like it and can use it as a reference for your own mansion in the future. Maybe I can get my architects to help you design one.”

Feng Yu forced a smile. “Haha... Let’s talk about this some other time.”

Feng Yu is not interested in an empty mansion. Even if he is interested, he will also not build such a massive mansion.

“Feng, come over here. This is an Opera House. Although it is not big, it can fit up to 100 people. It can also be used as a cinema.”

“Feng, look at this room. This is a ballroom. My guests can sing, dance, and dine here. I will host a ball soon, and you must attend.”

“Feng, this is my favorite room. There is a beautiful bar over there, and in those rooms, there is a cellar. I keep the best liquor from all over the world inside.”

“This is a bakery and is used for baking bread for everyone in the mansion. That room over there in the kitchen. It is bigger than those five-star hotels’ kitchens.”

“You should know what this room is for. This is a basketball gymnasium. I will invite our country’s best basketball players over to have a match with my NBA team.”

“This is the bathhouse. It is a replica of your country’s ancient emperor’s bathroom. It is beautiful.”

......

Feng Yu was dizzy after touring the mansion. Not all the rooms in the mansion are bedrooms. The rooms include gyms, cellars, opera house, dining hall, etc.

Feng Yu did not even expect Kirilenko to have a bakery and such a big bathhouse.

After the tour, Feng Yu starts to wonder if he should also build a mansion like this. He can spend his vacation in the mansion once in a while.
