Chapter 146: The merit request document is of the highest quality
"Master, it's really early for you to go home today. Did you know that my senior brother and I are coming back? We left the office early and went home to wait for us."
Entering Yunshui Residence, the little ghost boy was quite surprised to see Taoist Xu Ping sitting leisurely in the main room drinking tea.
Taoist Xu Ping coughed twice.
He indeed knew in advance that his apprentice was coming back today, so he left the office and returned home on time.
Otherwise, he would work overtime in Guishensi's study room on weekdays.
I thought so in my heart, but Taoist Xu Ping was unwilling to admit it.
Ignoring the kid at all, Taoist Xu Ping only nodded slightly at Chu Chen:
"Back~"
Chu Chen smiled.
When he returned to Chen's house to report that he was safe, Chen's father hurried out of the study and said "he's back" when he saw him for the first time.
The words are simple, yet comforting.
"Well, I came back overnight."
Chu Chen sat down casually, picked up the teapot, refilled the hot tea for his master, then picked up a teacup and poured himself a cup.
Taoist Xu Ping watched Chu Chen playing with the tea set, with a faint smile on his face.
"Did the rescue mission to Youzhou go smoothly?"
"It's okay, it went pretty smoothly."
Chu Chen thought for a while, and then gave a general account of his trip to Oak County.
They introduced the situation in Oak County at that time, how many people they saved, and the current situation in Oak County.
Taoist Xu Ping listened very seriously and nodded from time to time.
"You've done a good job. No wonder the Oak County Magistrate, the County Governor, and the City God praise you highly."
"Master, have you heard about it too?"
Chu Chen was slightly surprised. The Oak County Magistrate and the county governor praised him quite a lot. He knew this, but he didn't expect that the news would spread so quickly, and even his master would know about it.
Taoist Xu Ping nodded and explained:
"The request for merit from the Youzhou Ghosts and Gods Department arrived at our Guangping County at noon today. You have received a superior evaluation. This evaluation is quite rare. Only the county magistrate, the county governor, and the city god jointly signed the petition, plus you
Only when you really achieve some results can you be judged.”
"That's right~ Hehe, master, if you are a disciple, I will definitely not embarrass you."
Chu Chen smiled.
In fact, he expected that Oak County would give him a high opinion.
As soon as the county official came out of the city, the first person he looked for was Chu Chen.
It is conceivable that the work he has done has penetrated into the minds of Oak County officials, and there is no need for him to express his merits.
It was precisely because of this that Chu Chen left all his good words to Wang Ping, Xiucai, Qing Zhouzi, and Qing Pingzi, and asked for credit for them, without even mentioning himself in the whole process.
Dealing with others is also a kind of practice.
Yin and Yang are mixed together, and the most important thing is balance.
People can't just work hard, and when they achieve results, they have to learn to show credit for themselves.
On the contrary, if the merits are well known to everyone, they have to be subtle and conceal the merits, and the merits have to be "dispersed".
Giving credit to others will not affect your own credit, but will reflect his magnanimity and set off his abilities.
Taoist Master Xu Ping's rare chuckle did not embarrass him, but made him feel bright and proud.
"Master, scholar, what is the evaluation of Wang Ping's application documents?"
Chu Chen asked curiously.
"As a teacher, I knew you would ask."
Taoist Xu Ping was well prepared and blurted out:
"The five of you have treated nearly 2,000 people, and you have done a great job. All five of you are highly rated."
After speaking, Taoist Xu Ping continued:
"Your evaluation is one level higher than theirs because you strategized and led the overall situation. Oak County Magistrate, Du Guan, and the City God praised you highly. This is why Xianting raised your evaluation by an additional level."
Chu Chen suddenly felt a little curious:
"Master, this time, are there many immortal officials who have received high-level evaluations for supporting Youzhou?"
Taoist Xu Ping shook his head:
"There are rules in the Immortal Court's evaluation of merit documents, and they are not given casually. It is quite rare to get a good grade, especially for monks of the ninth and eighth grades. There are only a handful of them who can get a good evaluation.
You did a good job this time."
Taoist priest Xu Ping has a reserved and reserved personality.
On weekdays, both Chu Chen and Xiaoguizai were quite stingy in their praises, and they rarely praised them one after another.
Chu Chen felt a little embarrassed.
Taoist priest Xu Ping seemed to realize that he had boasted too much today. He coughed, stopped talking, cleared his throat, and said seriously:
"Apprentice, please don't ask for the evaluation given by the Immortal Court in the merit document."
Chu Chen became interested.
"Master, is there anything else that needs to be done?"
"That's right! It's quite particular. Your evaluation this time is superior. The given comment is that you are strategizing and leading the overall situation. This evaluation is very precious and will be of great help to you in the future."
Chu Chen was not a stupid person and asked:
"Is it beneficial to my promotion to immortality?"
Taoist priest Xu Ping nodded: "Well, it will be good for your promotion and transfer, and it will be very helpful for you to compete for a job."
"As small as a county or as large as a state, all levels of ghosts and gods are responsible for the extremely popular immortal positions, and the competition is extremely fierce."
"To be a governor, you must not only have profound magic power and the ability to suppress one party, but also have the ability to lead. You have been highly praised for your strategizing and commanding skills. In the future, when you compete for the position of governor, you will naturally have great advantages.
The advantages."
"If I had been rated as Immortal Court when I was a teacher, I would have been in charge of any county."
Listening to his master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, Chu Chen suddenly realized.
Although the governor of a county is only a seventh-grade immortal official and not worth mentioning, it is the most powerful immortal position and the competition is extremely fierce.
If you don't have some skills, you really can't be a candidate.
"Master, let me put it this way, this "superior" evaluation is really good."
Taoist priest Xu Ping nodded: "It's quite good. You will understand it in the future."
The master and apprentice had a lively chat, leaving the little ghost in the cold. After going home for a while, no one paid any attention to him.
The little devil is aggrieved.
I know how to praise my senior brother, but I don't praise him either.
This time, it also achieved great success.
No one praised him, so the little guy had no choice but to show off his merits.
Taking advantage of the gap between the master and apprentice's conversation, the little devil said weakly:
"Sir~ I have also made a meritorious service. The plague monster is still my harbinger of bad luck. This is how senior brother can find out the monster that fishes in troubled waters."
"Oh~ haha" Taoist priest Xu Ping was in a good mood today. He smiled when he heard this and asked:
"Little devil, do you want Pindao to praise you?"
The kid nodded.
Taoist priest Xu Ping touched the little devil's head:
"Well done."
"Thank you, sir~."
Although Taoist Xu Ping's praise was a bit perfunctory, the little devil was still very happy and a contented little devil.
Chu Chen Lengjun couldn't help but thought for a while, and then continued chatting with his master.
"Master, during the time when I went to Youzhou to support my fifth Five Zang Yuan Lord, my fifth Zang Yuanjun enlightened me. I have completed the nine-level Taoist training stage. What should I do with the external refining of the Holy Yuan Miao Dan?"
