Zhao Ran's sudden emergence undoubtedly shocked everyone. Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze were taken off the list due to the hot-tempered style issues. After the incident, most of the fire workers had already expected it. Although this
The years are full of romance, but 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 means that he is the number one among the Huo Gong lay practitioners in the dormitory. Zhao Ran has no family background and entered Wujiyuan.
In such a short period of time, he actually became the number one among the squatters. 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 Du Guan had already agreed, 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 was not a small amount, and coupled with Yu Zhiyuan's relationship, it was common sense to obtain the Du Guan's approval.
However, Lao Duguan has rich life experience. Even if he agreed, he still did not say anything: When will the conditions be suitable? There should not be too many articles that can be written on this issue.
Zhao Ran also understood this quite well. He himself repeated this sentence countless times before traveling through time.
The old governor 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. As for Du Guan, Du Guan and Du Chu are the "three
"Du" is located below the Supervisory Court and above the eight deacons. It has no specific duties and does not do much on weekdays. What matters is respect for status.
The "Three Capitals" are generally awarded to Taoist priests with high qualifications and seniority. Although they do not care about specific affairs, they are highly respected in the Taoist Academy and have great influence. For some important matters in the Taoist Academy, the Supervisory Yuan often has to report to the "Three Capitals"
"Solicit opinions and even allow them to participate directly, such as the selection of ultimatum children.
Yu Zhiyuan has determined that among the "three capitals", Du Guan is on his side, Du Chu prefers Feng Can, and the other one is still ambiguous. This is Zhao Ran's opportunity.
As the name suggests, they are not only from a sutra hall, but also nominally in charge of the sutra teaching affairs of the Taoist academy. Except for the eight deacons and the "five masters and eighteen heads" who have official duties, all the formal Taoist priests in the Taoist academy are
Studying in the sutra hall is like a "taoist boy who chants sutras", which shows the influence of Du Tuo.
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 other three masters of the Sutra Hall were all fellow disciples. Among them, he was especially close to the Sutra Master Liu Zhizhong, so he dragged Zhao Ran to look for Liu Sutra Master.
Yu Zhiyuan and Liu Jingzhu were already very familiar with each other. There was no need to hide anything. They made their future plans clear and asked Zhao Ran to visit Liu Jingzhu and directly ask Liu Jingzhu 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 upgrade 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 stretched out a finger. Looking at the finger dangling in front of his eyes, Zhao Ran felt nervous for a while. One hundred taels was definitely not enough, but one thousand taels could still be considered. If it was
Ten thousand taels, then Zhao Ran had to carefully consider whether this deal was worthwhile.
Fortunately, Yu Zhiyuan grasped the market situation relatively accurately and asked: "One thousand taels?" Liu Jingzhu nodded, so Zhao Ran felt relieved and gritted his teeth decisively and decided to pay.
This is the advantage of being rich. If it were anyone else, or Zhao Ran in the past, he would never be willing to spend a thousand 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 this thousand 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: "In three days,
I'll 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 one thousand... 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 a rootless fly. No matter how much money I have, it will be difficult 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 look for Guan Er and asked Guan Er to bring two thousand taels of silver for use, but this shocked Guan Er. He was so worried about losing at the gambling table. He could understand the exchange of thousands of taels of silver, or even tens of thousands of taels of silver.
But "using" two thousand pieces of silver is no small matter.
"The money is no problem. I'll send someone home to pick it up right away. It can 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 so.
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 for me 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 saw that 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 entered the Taoist academy? I have told him in detail before."
Guan Eryi slapped his forehead: "Ah, could it be the residence of Master Chu?"
Zhao Ran shook his head: "Daochang Chu is in the Jade Emperor Pavilion. It is a secret place for the Taoist sect. It is not something you and I can know. This is where the secular manor of Daochang 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 a 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,
When sending a letter, you need to buy various gifts. It is best to beat gongs and drums, and then ask craftsmen to carve a plaque to express your gratitude to Chu Garden with great fanfare.
"Is it possible?" Guan Er asked.
"Try it..." Zhao Ran was unsure.
For Zhao Ran's sake, 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 banknote, due to Zhiyuan's guidance, he handed the one thousand taels of banknotes to Liu Jingzhu and gave him an extra one hundred 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!"
From start to finish, including the gifts sent to Chu Garden, Zhao Ran spent more than 2,300 taels of silver, and the word "generous" was well deserved. The rest can only be waited for news. If it fails, then this
