Avoid moving, entering a house, breaking ground, or praying for blessings.
On this day, in the early morning, Uncle Jiu put on the new clothes that Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai had prepared for him yesterday, and stood with Qin Yao at the gate of Yizhuang to greet guests from all walks of life.
The courtyard is filled with maroon round tables that can seat ten people. Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai shuttle among them like a fish in water, arranging the seats for the guests who enter the courtyard.
In the kitchen, Ren Tingting dispatched all the chefs, helpers, and errand boys who would be responsible for serving dishes and pouring water later, and took the trouble to explain the process to them over and over again.
"Uncle Jiu, congratulations, congratulations." When most of the tables in the courtyard were filled with guests, the mayor Ren Qingquan came quickly with a group of bureaucrats and squires, and was the first to congratulate Uncle Jiu.
"Master, this is the mayor of our Renjia Town, Ren Qingquan." Qin Yao said softly.
Uncle Jiu nodded silently, with a smile on his face, and returned the greeting solemnly: "Thank you very much, Mayor Ren, for taking time out of your busy schedule. Qin Yao, please quickly take the mayor and all the squires to the lobby to take their seats."
Seeing Uncle Jiu saluting him in full view of the public, Ren Qingquan knew that Qin Yao had not revealed what he had collected in his account, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude in his heart.
As the mayor who is in charge of the political affairs of a town, he also wants to save face. On the way here, he was still thinking about what if Qin Yao asked him to call him boss in public. Wouldn't he lose face and become someone else? The butt of the joke?
Don’t worry now, the other party gave him dignity after all.
Because of this, his grudge against the sudden appearance of a big boss dissipated a little.
This big guy is capable.
"Mayor, I'm not sure what the identities of these friends you brought are, so please help arrange seats for them. After arranging, please go to the main table first. My master and I Come here after welcoming the guests." Qin Yao led a group of bureaucrats and squires into the main room and said softly.
Ren Qingquan nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Taoist Master Qin, I will make arrangements for these old friends I brought here."
Qin Yao smiled and didn't say much. , turned around and left the lobby.
"Mayor, do you need to be so polite to him?" After he left, a close official of Ren Qingquan asked in a low voice.
"It's not just me, you must also maintain enough respect for him. If you don't respect him, you are looking down on me!" Ren Qingquan was worried that his subordinates did not know the importance of the matter and offended Qin Yao with his unobtrusive words, which would harm himself, so he immediately became strict warn.
After figuring out the boss's attitude, he was still quite satisfied with the boss's way of getting along with each other. Being a human being is realistic, and being an official is even more realistic. As long as he is not allowed to lose money and face, he can continue to work as the mayor and make a lot of money... Bah, continue to fight for the people of the town, let alone let him shout in private Now that I'm old enough, it's okay to call me my adoptive father.
Children only do things based on their personal likes and dislikes. Adults only look at the benefits and weigh the pros and cons no matter where they turn.
"It's quite lively." Half an hour later, Chen Chenghuang led two judges to the outside of Yizhuang, holding his head high and smiling.
"Greetings to the Lord City God." Uncle Jiu cupped his hands.
Chen Chenghuang glanced at Qin Yao and saw him smiling at him, so he waved his hand: "It's a new world. This title sounds inappropriate, sir. Just call me Mr. Chen."
Uncle Jiu was very surprised. He didn’t expect this cold-faced city god to be so good-tempered today. He was completely different from the person he met before, and he was flattered for a moment: "Okay. Mr. Chen, I will take you to the lobby."
In the lobby, Ren Qingquan was sitting alone on the main seat. , seeing the boss walking in accompanied by a man in robes who seemed to have a higher status, he subconsciously stood up.
As soon as he stood up, the bureaucrats and squires who came with him stood up one after another, like subordinates welcoming the big boss to enter, giving them enough face. Chen Chenghuang took in all this and looked at Ren Qingquan emphatically, feeling very satisfied.
It’s just that he is a guest now and it’s not easy to overshadow the guest, so he quietly gave Qin Yao a wink.
"Mayor Ren, let me introduce to you. This is Boss Chen from the City God Temple." Qin Yao said to Ren Qingquan.
Ren Qingquan himself is a human spirit. When he heard the three words "City God's Temple" and thought of the title "boss" in Qin Yao's mouth, the identity of this noble man was immediately revealed in his heart, and his heart trembled.
The little girl fucked her.
This is the fucking City God!
The boss is so awesome that he can even invite the City God!
At this moment, seeing the city god face to face, Ren Qingquan no longer had any grudge against the newly recognized boss.
You must know that in ancient times, even high-ranking officials would worship the city god.
"Mayor Ren, what are you thinking about?" Seeing him dumbfounded, Qin Yao frowned slightly.
Ren Qingquan woke up from a dream and hurriedly handed over his hand: "I'm sorry, I saw that Boss Chen looked a little familiar, so I got distracted unconsciously."
Chen Chenghuang smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'll have another drink later. that is."
Ren Qingquan nodded quickly and said with a smile: "I accept the punishment, and I will punish myself with three cups later."
"Senior Brother (Uncle), we are here." At this time, suddenly outside the lobby Several calls rang out.
Uncle Jiu looked overjoyed, clasped his fists and said, "Everyone, my fellow disciples have arrived. I'll excuse you for now. Qin Yao, you stay here with Boss Chen and Mayor Ren."
"Yes, Master." Qin Yao nodded.
Uncle Jiu hurried to the outside of Yizhuang to meet and greet all the disciples. Suddenly he remembered something and whispered: "I will take you to the lobby later. There is a distinguished guest and an official in the lobby. , you must not collide."
"Brother, can you tell me who the distinguished guest is and who the official is?" A Taoist priest responded: "The only way is to know. Only by knowing their true identities can we grasp the situation properly."
Uncle Jiu paused for a moment, then finally made it clear: "There is a boss Chen who is the local city god, Mr. Ren. "The mayor."
The mayor is just that. The practitioners are unwilling to contact them, but that doesn't mean they respect them. The one who really shocked them was the city god!
This is not one of those unfashionable wandering gods, but a serious Yinsi Zhengshen. Senior Brother Lin is so proud that he even invited the City God to come in person.
In an instant, people's hearts were filled with excitement, and all the fellow disciples looked at Uncle Jiu with a lot of reverence in their eyes.
It’s like a mountain standing tall.
Uncle Jiu has always had a good reputation. In the original book, when he was accompanying Ren Fa to eat, he winked at the bitterness of his coffee without adding sugar; and added polysaccharide in the egg tarts, which were so sweet that they were hard to swallow, just so as not to lose face.
In reality, because of the additional variable of Qin Yao, he avoided this embarrassment, but the most basic character traits have not changed. At this moment, looking at the disciples, to be precise, they are acquaintances The look of admiration in his eyes felt like eating a piece of iced watermelon in the dog days of summer, which was so refreshing.
Delightful!
Thank you all for your support and encouragement. Last time I said that I wanted to compete for the first place in the new book list, and this week I ranked first for a week in a row. You are more powerful than Boss Chen!
The young author felt happy.
Thank you everyone!!☆⌒(*^-゜)v
