Chapter 40 A big deal

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhao Ran¡¯s sudden appearance undoubtedly shattered everyone¡¯s eyes.  Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze were taken off the list due to the controversial work style issues. After the incident, most of the fire workers had already expected it.  Although the relationship is unstoppable in these years, if the impact is too great, the Taoist sect cannot end it and can only abandon the two of them. This is no problem, but what was unexpected was that Zhao Ran was on the list.

    Guan Er took all the firemen from the clean room and the private room and came to congratulate Zhao Ran. He laughed and said: "This is really unexpected. I didn't expect Brother Zhao to be the leader in the dormitory. Guan Mou admires him very much."  !" There are eight heads in the dormitory, and the total number of Huo Gong lay practitioners exceeds 70 and 80. Being on the recommended list is considered to be the number one among the Huo Gong lay practitioners in the dormitory. Zhao Ran has no family background and entered Wujiyuan.  In a short period of time, he actually became the number one in the dormitory. No wonder Guan Er was impressed.

    Zhao Ran quickly remained humble for a long time and declined everyone's intention to take him to Guyang County to "have fun" on their day off. He was joking. This incident once again proved that you should never get carried away at any time. Everything will be over before the last moment.  There are variables.

    Yu Zhiyuan didn't take this matter seriously. In his cognitive world, it was natural for Zhao Ran to be on the recommended list of squatters. This was the case for him back then. He never thought that Zhao Ran was almost there.  Just gave up.

    Yu Zhiyuan told Zhao Ran that the governor had already nodded, and as long as the conditions were suitable, he would propose that Zhao Ran receive an ultimatum.  Zhao Ran's five hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, and with Yu Zhiyuan's relationship, it is common sense to obtain the approval of the governor. However, the old governor has rich life experience. Even if he agreed, he still did not say anything: when and what conditions  suitable?  There shouldn¡¯t be too many articles that can be written on this issue.

    Zhao Ran also understands this quite well. He himself repeated this sentence countless times before traveling through time.

    The old steward nodded, allowing Zhao Ran to get one of the four votes, but this was still not enough. According to the information that Yu Zhiyuan found out, at least the two votes for the chef and the supervisory house, most likely belonged to Feng Can.

    In the power structure of Wujiyuan, the abbot generally does not speak - but any words he speaks must have the heaviest weight. Most of the remaining affairs are taken care of by the Supervisory Court and the eight deacons.  The "Three Capitals" of Du Guan, Du Guo and Du Chu are located below the Supervisory Court and above the Eight Deacons. They have no specific duties and do not take care of things on weekdays. What matters is respect for their status.

    "Three Capitals" are generally awarded to Taoist priests with high qualifications and seniority. Although they do not care about specific affairs, they are quite respected in the Taoist temple and have great influence.  For some major matters in the Taoist Yuan, the Supervisory Yuan often consults the "Three Capitals" for opinions or even allows them to participate directly, such as the selection of Taoist boys who have received ultimatums.

    Among the "three capitals" that Zhiyuan has already determined, the governor is on his side, the chef of the capital is on Feng Can's side, and the other one is still ambiguous. This is Zhao Ran's opportunity.

    As the name suggests, Doujiao not only came from a sutra hall, but was also nominally in charge of the sutra lecture affairs of the Daoist Academy.  The official Taoist priests of the Taoist Academy, except for the eight deacons and the "Five Lords and Eighteen Heads" who have official duties, the rest all study in the Sutra Hall and are "Taoist boys who chant sutras". This shows the influence of Dudu.  A sign of strength.

    The Sutra Hall is the main birthplace of Taoist priests. The deacon in charge of the Sutra Hall is named Jiang Zhixiao. Under Jiang Gaogong, there are Sutra Master, Jingzhu and Huazhu, all of whom are lecturers in the Sutra Hall. They are also among the "Five Masters and Ten"  A steward among the "eight heads".  Yu Zhiyuan was born in the Sutra Hall, and he and the three masters of the Sutra Hall are all brothers. Among them, he has a close friendship with the Sutra Master Liu Zhizhong, so he drags Zhao Ran to find Liu Sutra Master.

    Yu Zhiyuan and Liu Jingzhu are very familiar with each other. There is no need to hide anything. They have made their future intentions clear. After Zhao Ran paid a visit to Liu Jingzhu, he asked Liu Jingzhu directly if he could let Jiang Gaogong help and follow the path mentioned by the old man.

    Liu Jingzhu was really interesting. He told Yu Zhiyuan and Zhao Ran that Jiang Gaogong was seeking to raise the Xizhenwu Palace and needed a large amount of money. If he took this as an opportunity, he could give it a try.

    Yu Zhiyuan asked, there must be a certain amount of "large sums of money". What is the approximate amount?

    Liu Jingzhu pondered for a moment and extended a slap.  Looking at the slap that kept dangling in front of his eyes, Zhao Ran felt nervous for a while.  Fifty taels is definitely not enough, but five hundred taels can still be considered. If it is five thousand taels, then Zhao Ran will have to carefully consider whether the deal is worthwhile.

    Fortunately, Yu Zhiyuan grasped the market situation relatively accurately and asked: "Five hundred taels?" Liu Jingzhu nodded, so Zhao Ran felt relieved and decisively decided to pay.

    This is the benefit of being rich. If it were anyone else, or Zhao Ran in the past, he would never be willing to spend five hundred taels of silver to buy the possibility of becoming an ultimatum Taoist priest - please note that what you buy is only a possibility, because old  It is said that there is only one vote in hand. If Zhao Ran still fails in the competition, then the five hundred taels of silver will be wasted!

      When Yu Zhiyuan heard this number, he actually backed down. He looked at Zhao Ran and was about to say something to give himself and Zhao Ran a step down, but he heard Zhao Ran nod his head and agreed: "Three days  Within a few seconds, I will send you the banknote."

    After leaving the Sutra Hall, Yu Zhiyuan asked Zhao Ran: "How much money do you have? Last time I bought medicine for Lao Duguan, it was five hundred taels, and this time it's five hundred again To be honest, I'm doing it for you."  Consider whether it¡¯s worth it.¡±

    Zhao Ran avoided the previous question and took up the next topic, saying: "Yu Mentou, you know that my family background is rough. Once I go down the mountain, I will be like a rootless fly. No matter how much money I have, it will be difficult for me to run a household."  .For me, Taoism is not only the step to advance in life, but also the foundation of life!"

    Yu Zhiyuan nodded silently, expressing his understanding, and stopped asking Zhao Ran about the origin of the money.

    Zhao Ran went to find Guan Er and asked Guan Er to bring two thousand silver for use, but Guan Er was shocked.  When losing money at the gambling table, you can understand the exchange of hundreds of taels or even thousands of taels of silver, but "using" two thousand taels of silver is not a trivial matter.

    "There is no problem with the money. I will send someone home to pick it up immediately. It will be delivered tomorrow. But Brother Zhao, do you want to buy a farm? If so, tell Guan to help you get the details to avoid being hacked. If  Brother Zhao has encountered some difficulties, but please let Guan know and see what Guan can do to help?"

    "Second Brother Guan, don't worry. I really have some use for this money, and I need it urgently. As for how it is, it's not convenient to tell others. Please forgive me, Second Brother." Zhao Ran smiled apologetically at Guan Er, and then remembered  What? He took out a letter from his arms and said: "By the way, there is a letter here. I hope my second brother can ask someone to run over to it."

    Guan Er took it and took a look. The place where this letter was to be sent was Chu Garden by the Dadu River at the foot of Wushan Mountain in eastern Sichuan. He couldn't help but be stunned: "Where is this place? I have never heard of it."

    Zhao Ran said: "Second brother, does he know how I was born into the Taoist Academy? I have told him in detail before."

    Guan Er slapped his forehead: "Ah, could it be the residence of Master Chu?"

    Zhao Ran shook his head: "Master Chu is in the Jade Emperor Pavilion. It is a secret place for the Taoist sect. It is beyond the knowledge of you and me. This is where the secular manor of Master Chu is located."

    Guan Er immediately woke up, nodded and asked: "Do you want to follow the path of the Great Master of Chu?"

    Zhao Ran sighed: "It may not be possible to get through, let's treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor." At that moment, he gave detailed instructions and asked Guan Er to send the astute people from the escort agency to Chuyuan to deliver the message.  He told Guan Er that when sending letters, he should buy various gifts. It would be best to beat gongs and drums, and then ask craftsmen to carve a plaque and send his gratitude to Chu Garden with great fanfare.

    "Is it possible?" Guan Er asked.

    "Let's try it" Zhao Ran was unsure.

    For the sake of Zhao Ran, Guan Er simply asked for leave, went down the mountain in person and returned to the escort office, took out the banknotes, and at the same time deployed manpower to go to eastern Sichuan.

    The next day, after Zhao Ran got the silver note, he handed the 500 taels of silver notes to Liu Jingzhu due to Zhiyuan's guidance, and at the same time gave him an extra 100 taels.

    Yu Zhiyuan said to Master Liu Jing, "I'll leave everything to my senior brother."

    Liu Jingzhu smiled and patted Zhao Ran on the shoulder: "You are really brave and generous. Don't worry, I will do my best for you!"

    ??Including the gifts sent to Chu Garden, Zhao Ran spent more than 1,300 taels of silver, and the word "generous" was well deserved.  The rest, you can only wait for the news. If you can't succeed, you will really lose money this time.

    Thank you Xiao Yisu for the reward!
