Chen Guanyu made a good calculation. He thought that his current predicament was all caused by Su Hao. At least during the period when the county was digging wells, Su Hao would be a celebrity in the county. If Su Hao had some feelings for him,
If he has any resentment, his fate will be miserable. In addition, even if Su Hao doesn't care about him, Zheng Chun has already put a trap on him and can blackmail him anytime and anywhere. If he doesn't find a backer quickly, then
At least he can no longer think of staying in Fengcheng.
In this situation, avoiding is not a good idea. The best way is to advance before retreating. The most dangerous place is often the safest place. If you surrender to Su Hao and are willing to be Su Hao's back, then
, with Su Hao's generous character, he will definitely not embarrass himself. Moreover, with Su Hao's protection, Zheng Chun can no longer cause trouble for him. Chen Guanyu knows the rules of officialdom very well, and he knows that the master is
On the surface, the position does not seem to be a position, but the status in the county government is higher than that of ordinary officials.
Besides, seeing that Su Hao was able to take his sister to a restaurant without any stumbling, and treated himself to a bowl of noodles for 10 cents, it can be imagined that Su Hao's income is very considerable. Dedicated to Su Hao's name
Next, at least he will have enough food and clothing. As for whether Su Hao will take him in, Chen Guanyu is very confident. He believes that he has what Su Hao needs, and he will definitely be able to convince Su Hao.
Chen Guanyu's action shocked both Su Hao and Lu Xiuer. Seeing Chen Guanyu's pious look, Su Hao raised his hand and said: "Mr. Chen, get up and talk, the ground is cold..."
Chen Guanyu snored and sat back on the stool, but the expression on his face did not relax at all. He said: "How dare Xiaodao be so respectfully addressed by Master Su? Master Su just calls Xiaodao a little fish."
With a puff, Lu Xiuer covered her mouth and laughed. After all, Chen Guanyu was about Bensi's age. His face was wrinkled and pockmarked. In Su Hao's words, it looked like karst terrain. He claimed to be in front of Su Hao.
"Little Fish", this is really a joke.
"Okay, I'll call you Brother Guanyu, but don't call me master one by one. Just call me by my name." Su Hao said. In his previous life, he had also managed a group of people in his work unit.
People are not unfamiliar with being a leader. Since Chen Guanyu is willing to defect, it is open to question whether he will be accepted or not, but at least Su Hao will not feel uncomfortable.
"Just call me Guanyu." Chen Guanyu climbed down the pole, "As for Mr. Su, who has just been promoted to the position of master, if the servant keeps claiming that he is the master, it does seem that the master is a bit arrogant. What's more,
The official master in the county government is Mr. Fang, and the young master himself uses modest names to keep a low profile and keep a low profile."
Chen Guanyu is truly a master, and he immediately raised the issue of title to a theoretical level. Su Hao nodded, agreed with Chen Guanyu's analysis, and then asked: "Guanyu... Oh, forget it, I
Let me call you Lao Chen. Lao Chen, you said you were willing to ride for me, but what are you capable of?"
"I know everything!" Chen Guanyu said, patting his chest. Seeing the teasing look in Su Hao's eyes, he quickly changed his words: "Uh... except for the well exploration location, I'm a little unsure.
outside."
"What did you do in the past?" Su Hao asked in a different way.
Chen Guanyu was eager to ask Su Hao to take him in, so naturally he would not hide anything. He introduced his fingers to Su Hao: "I can read Feng Shui, tell fortunes, know how to do things, make elixirs, draw talismans, and do things...
"
Su Hao smiled: "Old Master Guanyu, what you know is all nonsense. My next job is to dig a well for the county magistrate. Are these things you say you know related to drilling a well?"
"Of course it's relevant!" Chen Guanyu replied without thinking. He turned around and looked around, then pointed at a landscape painting on the wall next to him and said to Su Hao: "Master Su, please take a look, if there is something on this picture
Wells can be drilled at both locations to produce water, which one will you choose?"
Su Hao didn't understand what Chen Guanyu meant. He glanced at it and said, "Both places are okay, right?"
Chen Guanyu smiled proudly and said: "Young master, these two places are no different to you. But for people who pay attention to Feng Shui, the difference is huge. The former one is related to the earth's veins. If you make the master
Choosing this place to dig a well will definitely lead to resistance from the villagers. But this latter place is irrelevant, and there is no hindrance to digging a well here."
"Oh, that's it." Su Hao understood what Chen Guanyu meant, and couldn't help but admire Chen Guanyu in his heart.
In ancient times, people paid great attention to Feng Shui. If they broke ground on other people's Feng Shui treasure land, it would often cause disputes and even fights. What Chen Guanyu meant was to remind Su Hao that digging a well is not only about looking at the ground underground.
If there is no water, we have to check whether the well location will offend the villagers' Feng Shui. And looking at Feng Shui is what Chen Guanyu is good at.
Su Hao also learned some Feng Shui skills in his previous life, but he learned them for the purpose of studying ancient culture, and it was not as practical as what Chen Guanyu learned. In this way, Chen Guanyu is really useful to Su Hao.
.
Seeing that Su Hao understood what he meant, Chen Guanyu became more confident and continued: "Ask Mr. Su again, if the well locations you surveyed are all above the earth's veins, drilling wells will inevitably attract opposition from the villagers. What will you do?
response?"
Su Hao simply shook his head and said, "I don't know, please give me some advice from Brother Guanyu."
"How dare you, how dare you." Chen Guanyu was proud and did not get carried away. He said: "In Xiaodao's humble opinion, drilling a well is the most important thing today, and it must not be abandoned because of some trivial matters. If the appropriate well location is consistent with the geomantic treasure land in the eyes of the villagers,
If they collide with each other, then someone needs to tell the villagers that in fact, drilling wells is exactly beneficial to Feng Shui."
"Haha, do you mean to make up a story about resigning so that the villagers can accept it?" Su Hao said with a smile. He is a person with a very high IQ. After Chen Guanyu reminded him a little, he knew it was
What does that mean?
Chen Guanyu's method is actually very simple. Anyway, the theory of Feng Shui depends on Mr. Feng Shui's two words. As long as he can tell some truth, the villagers will naturally believe it. For example, digging a well on a geomantic treasure land, the traditional view
I think it will destroy Feng Shui, but if you say it will help Feng Shui, others may cry and beg you to dig a well.
Even if Su Hao knew how to do such nonsense, he wouldn't be interested in doing it. If he had time, he might as well study the structure of the earth's crust. If Chen Guanyu, the old magic stick, could do such a thing, then take him with him.
Having someone by your side can actually save you a lot of trouble with words. When you go to the countryside to work, you may encounter all kinds of things. It should be very beneficial to you to have a magic stick by your side to help you fool around.
"Okay, Old Chen, let's make it this way, you can follow me." Su Hao waved his hand and took Chen Guanyu under his command. Although he, the newly promoted workshop master, was only a temporary worker,
But you also need to have your own team. Without a few subordinates who can help you work down-to-earth, a polished commander will be trampled to death if he goes down there.
"Thank you, Master, for taking me in." Chen Guanyu beamed with joy.
Su Hao said: "Old Chen, let's do this. I will go and tell the county magistrate about your matter tomorrow. What happened in Zhegui Township is an honest mistake at best, so there is no need to pursue it. I will also say hello to Zheng Chun.
He doesn't dare to touch you."
"Thank you, sir." Chen Guanyu dropped a stone and felt that his decision was extremely wise.
"In the next period of time, you will follow me on errands in various townships. I will take care of the surveying of well locations. You should pay more attention to matters involving the people in the township and nip all kinds of signs in the bud. Do you understand?
"
"Xiaodao understands."
"Here are 2 denarii. You can use it first. The salary I will give you later will depend on your ability. It's up to you."
"Xiaodao dare not negotiate the price with the young master, as long as he has food to eat, it is enough."
"Well, let's talk about these things later. By the way, Lao Chen, do you have a place to live in the county?"
"Yes, Xiaodao usually lives in the Qingdu Temple at the west gate. The temple owner there is a friend of the late master, so he left a room for Xiaodao in the temple."
"Well, okay. I have to wait until I go to the county office tomorrow to talk to Mr. Fang and the officials in the workshop before I can make the next step. After the matter is settled, I will ask someone to go to Qingdu Temple to find you.
."
"Understood." Chen Guanyu nodded. After listening to Su Hao's words, he turned around and asked, "Young Master is in the county, have you arranged a place to live?"
Su Hao said: "Not yet. I plan to go look for it with my sister after dinner to see if there is any house for rent."
"Haha, Master, I need Xiaodao again. When it comes to things in Fengcheng County, Xiaodao knows everything about it. If you want to rent a house, Xiaodao will help you find it. It is guaranteed to be clean, luxurious and cheap.
"Chen Guanyu boasted about Haikou.
Su Hao burst out laughing. He and Lu Xiu'er were both from the countryside, and they really didn't know much about things in the city. If they went to rent a house rashly, they might be cheated. With someone like Chen Guanyu who spends all day in the market,
My god, life is so much easier.
"Then please leave it to Lao Chen." Su Hao said, cupping his hands to Chen Guanyu.
