Volume 1 Changshui County handyman Chapter 7 The world is hot and cold
"Brother Wang!"
After opening the door, Lu Jiuzhang said hello.
"Brother Lu, I've been waiting for you."
As soon as he entered the room, Wang Yunshan started to complain, "I came to your house to look for you an hour ago, but I waited and waited and didn't see you coming back."
"Going out to do some errands." Lu Jiuzhang explained, and then asked, "It's dinner time, has Brother Wang eaten?"
"After eating, I saw that you didn't come back for a while. Your neighbor was quite enthusiastic. He welcomed me into the house and entertained me with delicious food and drinks." Wang Yunshan said.
It must have been received by my neighbor Aunt Zhao.
Aunt Zhao would not be so polite to ordinary people.
It should be because of Wang Yunshan's status as an official.
"Just eat it."
Lu Jiuzhang nodded, and the neighbor entertained him so that he would not have to cook anymore.
Lu Jiuzhang can just deal with it casually later.
"I'm here this time on commission from the Demon Slayer Division."
Wang Yunshan said, "Director Chen came to me specifically and asked me to tell you that it was your eldest brother's last wish to join the Demon Slayer Division. When your eldest brother died, Director Chen saw it. It was so miserable that I was afraid that you would see it.
It’s even sadder to see the corpse.”
"That's why the body was not brought back. After being cremated on the spot, a jar of ashes was brought back."
"As for poisoning, it's even more nonsense. Director Chen can vouch for this."
"I can still trust Director Chen's character."
"It was Director Chen who asked you to join the Demon Slayer Division because he felt that your eldest brother's death was too tragic and you were all alone. If the Demon Slayer Division didn't join you, you probably wouldn't be able to find a wife in your lifetime. You Lu
The family has lost its incense."
Damn it!
What words!
Is that what you’re good at?
Can’t even get a wife?
After all, he is a time-travelling person, and he doesn’t need to live a good life, but he must at least have a wife, right?
Being a bachelor for the rest of your life would be too disrespectful.
However, this also illustrates a problem from the side. There must be something fishy on the side of the Demon Slayer Division.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so eager to join in.
As for Wang Yunshan, he is a martial artist and a reckless person.
Director Chen deceived him with just a few words, so he probably became convinced stupidly.
In the eyes of the Demon Slayer Division, the current Lu Jiuzhang is almost like an ant.
If he refuses again, I'm afraid the Demon Slayer Division will take action against him.
If you don't join, you'll be dead. After you join, it may drag on for a while, and things may turn around.
Thinking of this, Lu Jiuzhang looked at Wang Yunshan and said, "Brother Wang, I didn't think carefully before. Please go back and tell Director Chen that I have figured it out and report for duty early tomorrow morning."
"That's true. After joining the Demon Slayer Division, you will be one of your own. Tomorrow night, I will bring a group of brothers to entertain you at Yihong Courtyard." Wang Yunshan laughed and patted Lu Jiuzhang on the shoulder.
"Thank you so much, Brother Wang!"
Lu Jiuzhang cupped his hands.
Actually, Lu Jiuzhang didn't really want to go to these places.
But if you don’t go, what will you do if they exclude you?
Although there were many excuses for not going, Lu Jiuzhang felt that there was no need to find them.
It’s better to experience life, the world of mortals is rolling, and joining the world is also practice!
After explaining the matter, Wang Yunshan was not ready to leave yet.
I coughed twice, as if there was something else, but I was too embarrassed to say it.
"Brother Wang, is there anything else you can do? But it doesn't matter."
Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Actually, I'm a little embarrassed to say anything about this." Wang Yunshan looked embarrassed, "You also know that your sister-in-law is very strict, and I don't have any private money. What should I do if I don't have money to entertain you tomorrow?"
"How about you lend me a few taels of silver first, and I will pay you back when my salary is paid."
Isn’t that embarrassing?
If you were really embarrassed, why would you open your mouth?
Ask Lu Jiuzhang to look for flowers and willows, listen to music on the hook, but in the end he has to ask Lu Jiuzhang to borrow money?
What the hell is this?
"Ahem... If brother Lu feels embarrassed, then forget it. I am really short on money for your brother, so I won't entertain you tomorrow." Wang Yunshan said bitterly.
"No, Brother Wang has already spoken, how can I be embarrassed not to borrow it?"
Lu Jiuzhang said, "How much silver does Brother Wang need?"
"Not much, just one tael of silver."
Wang Yunshan raised a finger and said.
The consumption of one tael of silver is already very high.
Wang Yunshan's salary is about two to three taels of silver a month.
However, they have extra money and can earn some money from other sources. In total, they have about five taels of silver a month.
It cost so much to bury Lu Huaigu. It was purely because the materials Lu Jiuzhang chose were of the best quality, so it was a bit more expensive.
Ordinary people may spend only two or three taels of silver on a funeral.
"It's too little. Since it's a reception, of course it has to be lively and lively. Spend more money. Well, Brother Wang, I'll lend you a little more. How about five taels of silver? We'll spend five taels of silver tomorrow night."
Lu Jiuzhang smiled.
Anyway, Wang Yunshan will pay it back when the time comes, so Lu Jiuzhang is not worried at all.
Spend a little more money and give Lu Jiuzhang a long experience tomorrow night.
Rumor has it that the oiran from Yihong Courtyard is astonishingly beautiful!
I'm afraid one tael of silver is not enough.
"No, no, no!" Wang Yunshan waved his hand quickly, "The more you borrow, the more you pay back. I have to give my salary to your sister-in-law every month."
After taking the money from Lu Jiuzhang, Wang Yunshan left.
What can you do with one tael of silver?
Lu Jiuzhang shook his head. He estimated that tomorrow night would just be a simple game, just listening to music.
If you think about it carefully, it's still a bit boring, so it's better not to go.
After Wang Yunshan left, Lu Jiuzhang was ready to go out again.
The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. The original plan was not to join the Demon Slayer Division, but now it seems that it is impossible not to join.
This is just the beginning, people are being gentle.
If you still refuse, you will probably have to use force.
If you don't eat the soft ones and insist on eating the hard ones, you are asking for trouble!
First, go to Master Zhou to see if he has any unique books that can improve your own strength.
The ninth level of Confucianism and Taoism is a bit useless, the eighth level is relatively better, and only the seventh level can be considered self-protective.
It would be safer to become a seventh-level person as soon as possible.
Stop by for a meal to satisfy your cravings.
It's so dangerous, we can't save money.
What if someone dies and the money is not spent?
…
After locking the door, Lu Jiuzhang was about to go out when the neighbor's door opened.
I saw my neighbor Aunt Zhao walking out with a smile, "Lu Erlang, what, are you ready to go out?"
Aunt Zhao's attitude has undergone a 180-degree change, which is surprisingly good.
"Getting ready to go out to eat."
Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Hey, why are you going out to eat? You're from the neighborhood, why don't you just have a meal at my house?" Aunt Zhao looked amiable, completely opposite to her attitude this morning, "Come on, the food I just cooked is still there. It’s warm.”
"Have you eaten yet? When Brother Wang came just now, you just..."
Just when Lu Jiuzhang was about to say something, he suddenly understood.
It is estimated that when Wang Yunshan was having dinner at Aunt Zhao's house just now, he told Aunt Zhao that he was going to join the Demon Slayer Division, otherwise her attitude would not be so good. This chapter has been completed!
