They renovated the office door, and an accident followed

A client asked if they could renovate the office door this year. I said no, and an accident happened after they went ahead.

The screenshots were masked before they were posted. Names, avatars and birth details are covered in the originals; where a translated line reads [redacted], the source was covered too and nothing has been guessed.

Client

They want to change the main entrance

This year the Three Sha are in Yin, Mao, and Chen positions. Starting construction there will bring misfortune

今年三煞在寅卯辰，动者发凶

No, no. The door is the intake of qi

不不门为进气口

It falls into the Mao position of the Zhen trigram

纳入震卦卯

Client

So we can’t do any construction this year, right?

就是今年不能动对吧

Zongyuan

Yes

对

Client

What happens if we do?

动了会咋样？

Zongyuan

The Three Sha move to a different position each year

就是三煞每年位置不一样

This year it’s on the east side. You can’t alter the door

今年在东一侧不能动门

Client

If we do move the door, who will bear the brunt of the misfortune? The construction crew, or our boss?

动门这个首当其冲凶牵头人还是施工方还是我们老板呢？

Zongyuan

The construction workers and the people who proposed the idea

施工的和出主意的

Client

I have an update for you

跟你汇报个事情

You know how our company’s main entrance just got finished? We put 8 arowana statues under the ground. Then something went wrong with a project at our front desk — two workers got hurt

我们公司大门不是刚刚弄好吗？地下放了8条鳌鱼前台我们有个项目出事情了折进去两个工人

This is just the beginning

这才刚刚开始呢

It will get worse in autumn and winter

秋冬加剧

Client

So this is connected?

这个有影响呢

Zongyuan

Of course something would go wrong when you alter the main door while offending the Three Sha
