Yu Zhiyuan asked Zhao Ran to wait and went into the courtyard first. Zhao Ran watched him walk through several clusters of crabapples, then stepped into the main hall and disappeared into the shadows.
After waiting for a while, Yu Zhiyuan went out to the door of the small courtyard and said to Zhao Ran: "Go in, I have already told Song Xunzhao that he wants to see you." After that, he took out a banknote from his arms and handed it to Zhao Ran.
: "Give Song Xun a photo when you get in. After all, your matter is unreasonable... Don't refuse. I'll lend it to you. I'll pay it back when you have more money in the future."
Zhao Ran glanced at it, but it was a one-hundred-tael silver note. He now had a family fortune of tens of thousands, and he no longer cared about the one-hundred-tael silver note. But after all, one hundred taels of silver was a very big sum, so Yu Zhiyuan
It was both a favor and an advance of money. Zhao Ran couldn't help but be deeply grateful for this gift of making friends.
Zhao Ran pushed back the banknote, saying that he had money, so Yu Zhiyuan didn't need to worry. Yu Zhiyuan was a little surprised, but didn't ask any more questions. He still had something to do, so he took the first step and let Zhao Ran go in by himself.
Zhao Ran walked into the courtyard and went straight to the main hall. The main hall was divided into two parts. There was a plaque on the left that said "Limited Room", and the plaque on the right said "House Number".
Zhao Ran stepped into the threshold on the left. The light in the room was slightly dim. His eyes adjusted slightly, and he saw a Taoist priest who was over fifty years old sitting behind the desk in the hall. He bowed and saluted: "I have seen the patrol.
"
Song Zhiyuan nodded and asked, "Have you been in the subdivision for a month?"
"yes."
Song Zhiyuan said: "New laymen need to go to the private room to clean the house. This is not only a rule of order, but also a way for the Taoist school to sharpen its mind. Those who are anxious and vain will go away, and those who are calm and sweet will survive. If you have not experienced this level, you will
If it is difficult to remain pure, your achievements in the future will be limited."
After a pause, Song Zhiyuan continued: "You have only been in the dormitory for a short period of time, so it is reasonable to say that there can be no exception. However, I heard that you are good at calligraphy, a quiet man, and you were also very good at studying in the private school when you were young. If you grow up
Being placed in a private room is a bit of a loss of talent. Junior Brother Yu has a very good vision. Since he is very optimistic about you, you must have some talents. Well, I originally wanted to use your strengths and copy the album in the accounting room, but
After all, I don't have the final say in the accounting room. I have to wait for a while before entering the water room first. Do you think so?"
This rhetoric was very skillful, and the excuse was also very good. Zhao Ran was a master of this before time travel, and he understood it as soon as he heard it. He did not respond, but just lowered his head and said: "Thank you, Inspector, for treating me differently, but Zhao Ran
I am not here to seek relocation for myself."
Song Zhiyuan said "Oh" and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Zhao Ran said: "The two houses of water and fire are vacant, and there is no conclusion about adding new people in the courtyard. However, in my private house, Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai have been cleaning it for a long time, but there is still no chance to move. Zhao Ran is bold and takes the place of Jiao Tuesday.
I'm begging for mercy, and I hope the patrol officer can take care of me." After saying that, he took out two hundred taels of silver notes from his arms and handed them to the head of the case.
Song Zhiyuan was greatly surprised and asked: "Why are these two people related to you?"
Zhao Ran smiled and said: "It's neither relatives nor reasons. When Zhao Ran first entered Wuji Courtyard, Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai were very friendly to Zhao Ran. Therefore, they want to beg for favors for the two of them, so please ask the inspector to do so!"
Song Zhiyuan was stunned for a long time and then said: "You have good intentions... The two of them are indeed qualified to transfer. This matter is not difficult. I can make the decision and agree. But you have to think carefully. After they leave, the house will be separated."
You are the only one left, how can I explain all these tasks to your husband?"
Zhao Ran said: "Thank you for the patrol! I'll go and talk to you over there at Zhou's Gate. Anyway, we won't delay the sweep." After a slight hesitation, he asked again: "I wonder if the patrol could use up some of its energy and get one more person around?"
"Oh? Who?"
"Jia An of the Jingfang, this person has been in the Jingfang for seven years, but he has never moved to another room. In three years, he will go down the mountain... Zhao Ran boldly asked the patrolman for a favor, can he move Jiaotan into the water?
Jia An enters the fire room, and the clean room under Jia An is empty, and Zhou Huai takes his place? In this way, wouldn't everyone be happy?"
Song Zhiyuan pointed at Zhao Ran, shook his head and said with a smile: "You really take care of yourself...but there is another reason for this, and I don't feel comfortable agreeing to it."
Zhao Ran had long suspected that there must be some other reason for Fatty Jia's delay in being transferred, so he quickly asked: "But I don't know what the reason is?"
Song Zhiyuan licked his beard and said: "Well, you kid is quite bad-tempered towards me, so I'll tell you. Seven years ago, when Jia An moved from a private house to a clean house, did he ever say that Zhang Dianzao looked different when talking to people?
Good, is it a short-lived match?" As he said that, Song Zhiyuan couldn't help but laugh and sighed: "People, be careful not to talk too much. It is said that talking too much will lead to misfortune, and disaster will come from the mouth. He thought that it would be fine if he said it, but some people didn't.
Unfortunately, I happened to hear it, and I have a very good memory. Zhang Dianzao was very angry about this, and specifically asked me to suppress him... This matter has nothing to do with me, but I can't refute Zhang Dianzao's face."
When Zhao Ran heard this, he suddenly understood and thanked Song Zhiyuan.
Before leaving, Song Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment and called Zhao Ran: "You are the person sent by the Great Refiner. I was also present when the Great Refiner came to Wuji Yard that day. I heard that the Great Refiner saved your life. This matter
Is it really true?”
Zhao Ran turned his head and realized that Song Zhiyuan was asking about Chu Yangcheng, and said: "That's true. At that time, the Xia soldiers broke through, and I happened to encounter a rebel army. Thanks to Taoist Master Chu, he took me away from the battlefield.
, I was lucky enough to escape.”
Song Zhiyuan leaned forward and asked: "Afterwards, did you have any contact with the Great Refiner?"
Zhao Ran shook his head: "There is no such thing, and I don't know where the great refiner is."
Song Zhiyuan said "Oh", nodded, and leaned back on the chair. He didn't say anything for a while. When Zhao Ran left again, he suddenly said: "It's better to express your gratitude and express your gratitude. After all, it's life-saving."
benefactor."
Zhao Ran said with a bitter face: "I also want to repay you with a good life, but there is no way to repay."
Song Zhiyuan thought for a while and said: "The Great Master Refiner is stationed in the Jade Emperor Pavilion, but the Jade Emperor Pavilion is the secret realm of our Taoist sect. I don't know where it is specifically... If you are serious, you should pay more attention."
After Zhao Ran came back, he went directly to the north room. Because there were more people in the clean room than in the private room, it seemed very crowded. Guan Er was bragging and spanking with several laymen in the house, but Fatty Jia was nowhere to be seen.
Not knowing where to go for entertainment, Zhao Ran pulled Guan Er out directly.
Guan Er is the next generation chief escort of the Weiyuan Escort Bureau, and his path to promotion does not lie in the Taoist Academy. Guan Er is waiting for a vacancy in the Fangtang. Once there is a vacancy there, he will be transferred there for training. Therefore, Zhao Ran also
Don't worry about him competing for the duties of the second room of water and fire, so I explained the matter in detail.
After hearing this, Guan Er was overjoyed and sighed: "Brother Zhao is really generous, Guan is convinced! This is a good thing, Guan thanked Brother Zhao on behalf of Fatty Jia."
Zhao Ran said: "Now that we know the whole story, it will be much easier to deal with it. Find Fatty Jia quickly, and find a way to turn things around quickly."
Guan Er immediately agreed, and sent the people who were cleaning the room out, searching for Fatty Jia all over the Taoist courtyard. After a while, someone found Fatty Jia, but he was hiding in the bell tower, drinking alone.
Guan Er sent the others away, leaving Fatty Jia alone who smelled of alcohol. Zhao Ran asked, "Did you say anything bad about Zhang Dianzao back then?"
Fatty Jia stared and rolled his eyes for a long time without thinking about it. He said blankly: "I don't remember ever saying bad things about him. Besides, Zhang Dianzao and I have no enmity, so why would I say bad things about him?"
Zhao Ran said: "If you think about it again, did you say that Zhang Dian had a bad destiny and was short-lived?"
Fatty Jia slapped the back of his head violently and regretted: "Oh, I remembered it. I drank too much that time, and I said it while talking and laughing with others. If Brother Zhao didn't mention it, I would have completely forgotten it. Jing! Look at my bad mouth, I really deserve to be damned...but this Dianzao is too narrow-minded, right?"
Zhao Ran shouted: "Silence! Don't talk nonsense! Fatty Jia, what do you want me to say to you? Why don't you have a brain at this time? After so many years of losses, you still haven't a memory? This is also the case You can tell?"
Zhao Ran had seen a lot of frustrations caused by an unintentional mistake like this in his previous life, and some of them were worse than Fatty Jia. Fatty Jia was suppressed for seven years because of a joke, and there were others who Because of this, I wasted my whole life! Fatty Jia finally knew the reason. Those who wasted their whole life never figured out what it was for until they died!
