In the heart of **Richmond BC**, where aunties gossip in Mandarin and uncles debate politics over pu'erh, there exists a tea shop that defies not only tradition — but also basic metaphysical decency.

Let’s call it what it is: a **Feng Shui felony** dressed up as modern chic.

Located in the **Brighouse area**, this Taiwan tea shop thought it could reinvent tradition with upside-down ferns dangling from a ceiling that looks like it lost a fight with a woodpecker, a droopy money tree that looks like it gave up on capitalism, and an entrance that shoots you straight into the cash register like you’re at a boba ATM.

There’s even floor-to-ceiling glass, so if, by some miracle, a line ever formed (it hasn’t), customers could stare into their own existential dread while waiting for overpriced oolong.

The result?

A **Qi score of -12**, according to Rob's Geomantic Analytics — the kind of reading that doesn’t just say “bad luck,” it says “please evacuate the premises.”

Even the only two customers — a pair of 30-something “leftover women” (their term, not ours) — fled the moment they walked in. Fled. Not sashayed. Not strolled. **Fled**.

And here’s the kicker: this place might’ve been designed not just for tea, but for **matchmaking**. Artificial ambiance? Check. Desperately modern design? Double check. Actual men? **Zero.**

It’s like someone whispered into the young owner’s ear: “Forget your auntie’s advice. Go viral or go home.” And so he did — home, that is, after another empty day.

Now, if he had just listened to his aunties from **Beijing**, or better yet, the **Classics of Geomancy**, he might have known that:

> *A tea shop without Qi is like a marriage without love — beautifully decorated, but spiritually bankrupt.*

And let’s not forget the Confucian punchline:

> *“He who builds without harmony shall serve tea to ghosts.”*

This shop is not haunted by spirits.

It’s haunted by **bad decisions**.

So for our **Richmond-residing, high-IQ readers from China, Taiwan, Vietnam**, who know that real tea houses don’t need gimmicks — just good flow — this is a lesson in what happens when you trade wisdom for wallpaper.

May this tea shop rise again. With a **Qi meter**, a **compass**, and a **phone call to Auntie**.
