Chapter 90 My era has begun!(1/2)
Six days passed by in a blink of an eye.
In these days, Ren Qiong has been conscientiously "acting" himself - or in other words, Ren Qiong in the eyes of others.
This is mainly for the Zhang family.
He has entered the eyes of this powerful family. You can know without even thinking about it. There will definitely be a thorough investigation and repeated verification before you can feel at ease, invest resources, and accept him as a pawn.
Get a dog!
Just look at the Dog Ethics Training Center to find out.
Not only must you be capable, but you must also be reliable... Otherwise, when danger comes, the dog will be the first to run away, so what's the point?
In this regard, the young man did not panic at all.
He didn't seem to be worried about being investigated at all, and he even took the initiative to come to the house once a day and communicate with the manager of the Zhang family openly.
Such "uprightness" made Li Er sigh that young people are so courageous.
At the same time, when they passed each other on the street, Li Ersai gave him a note with the contents written in Braille.
"Everything is ready, just waiting for action...Tianhe Waterway in two days!"
Ren Qiong's eyes flashed, his face remained calm, as if nothing was abnormal.
He went to the Zhang family again, chatting and laughing with people, and from time to time he inquired about the actions initiated by the Zhang family to eliminate demons and defend Taoism.
As a passionate young man who cares about major affairs in the state capital and hopes that the light of righteousness will shine on the earth, it is understandable.
What can others say?
"Things are not going well."
The steward of the Zhang family frowned, unable to excuse himself, so he simply said, "There are bad people in the state capital!"
"Those demons are good at stealing and hiding."
"Before they commit any bad deeds, they have plans and are very capable of hiding them."
"There are also some powerful people with evil intentions. They intend to overthrow the Taoist court and the state capital. They are against good people like us. They secretly mess up the clues and make the adults in the state capital very embarrassed. The progress is not smooth."
The steward sighed.
Ren Qiong's eyes moved, and his heart automatically compiled.
‘The Zhang family doesn’t have a single hand to control everything in the state capital, and the number of people they can bribe is limited.’
'It was not without clever people among the people who killed the Zhang family that night, and they had planned their escape route to hide.'
'The Zhang family has enemies, and there are other powerful families who are happy to watch the show and cause trouble for them.'
The young man made a calculation in his mind, and the villain in his heart rolled on the floor with laughter.
But on the surface, he still looks full of righteous indignation, worrying about the country and the people, "The devil is causing trouble, it's really not shallow!"
The young man was worried and passionate, and his youthful deception was almost written on his face.
"However, I believe that justice will eventually defeat evil. Those who care about human life will inevitably be punished for their evil deeds. Please rest assured and believe in the righteousness of the world."
Ren Qiongkang's speech.
The Zhang family's steward's mouth twitched, and he felt a little uncomfortable hearing these comforting words.
'The right way in the world...' the steward muttered in his heart, 'What does the Zhang family want with this thing?'
He shook his head and kicked the word out of his life's creed.
"Young man, are you confident that you will skip the next level and enter the Taoist Academy?"
He pretended to be concerned, "Tomorrow is your exam day, are you ready?"
"Natural!" The young man has great ambitions. "I have been practicing hard for more than ten years just to bloom today. I will definitely succeed!"
"Otherwise, I would feel ashamed of the help and support the Zhang family has given me these days."
Ren Qiong sighed.
The steward of the Zhang family twitched his brows hard when he heard these words.
Help...Support...
When he hears such words now, he feels a headache.
The young man in front of me had taken advantage of the Zhang family piecemeal, and it was almost worth a hundred thousand dollars.
He didn't waste any resources, didn't get involved in the Zhang family's foundation of talismans and various talisman-making techniques, but he learned a lot about "common sense" and history - that's how it was for the Zhang family.
These efforts cannot be said to be of much value, but it is not easy to push them one by one without finding a suitable reason, otherwise it will show the Zhang family's face - mean and unkind.
You have to put on a show after all!
This is very troublesome and needs to be dealt with carefully.
Tired of taking care of things.
But fortunately, these days will eventually pass, and this young man is going to take the exam.
"Then I wish you success in advance and become a rising star in the future."
He was playing around with the lake of lies.
However, Ren Qiong took it as serious and sincerely thanked the steward for his congratulations. After thanking him profusely, he left the Zhang family's residence.
"It's so laborious..." the steward sighed, "I won't recruit these young people in the future, it's too laborious."
"I'm tired of pretending."
He sighed to his subordinates.
"Master Steward, no matter how hard you work, you will gain something. In the final analysis, it is better for young people who have not entered the Taoist temple to do the lake." The subordinate said.
"That's true." The steward said dumbly, "The Taoist temple is a big dyeing vat, with all kinds of people there."
"Not to mention that there are some intricate organizations, which may not be worse than my Zhang family. They also have tentacles in the Taoist temple to compete for talents..."
The manager of the Zhang family sighed.
Suddenly, he thought of something and was thoughtful.
"That young man, you shouldn't have found any way to get into a Taoist temple, right?"
he asked.
"Then during the assessment, wouldn't it be easy to be challenged?"
"This..." The subordinate was stunned for a moment, and after thinking carefully, he replied, "It's hard to say. It doesn't exist in Fu Dao Yuan, but he has something to do with Wu Dao Yuan."
"How do you say this?" The steward was surprised.
"That's the origin of the Shaoxue Academy. He had the same mentor as the youngest witchcraft instructor in the Taoist Academy...but that's all."
"That's it..." The steward thought silently, calculating something, then his eyes suddenly lit up, "That's worth following up on and developing."
"Take my Zhang family's name card and go visit the deputy examiner's brother who will preside over the assessment tomorrow, present a gift, and explain... this and that... this and that..."
He gave instructions face-to-face and asked his subordinates to act accordingly.
The sunk cost of investment was not small, and a new value point was revealed, so he decided to make another investment.
Afterwards, this is a bargaining chip to accept being a dog, and it is also an invisible chain.
The cost of Ren Qiong's betrayal will increase, and he will no longer be able to escape from the Zhang family.
After all, he received a "funding" from the Zhang family, and he had this debt that was difficult to settle. In theory, he would not be able to lift his head for the rest of his life, and it was a liquidated damages that he could not afford.
Otherwise, once word gets out, all reputation will be ruined.
but……
Perhaps this steward would never have thought of it until his death.
Some people's ways of repaying debts are so original.
——Kill the creditor and I will have no debt!
…
"Gudong!"
Ren Ling swallowed hard.
She stretched out her fingers tremblingly, pointed at a pair of strange-shaped objects and asked, "This, this, this...is this the Gu you raised, brother?"
What a “chic” look that is!
The head of the cockroach, the feet of the praying mantis... are twisted and twisted, very eerie.
If a normal person sees this kind of thing, as long as he is not crazy, he will probably not let it fall on him.
"..."
Ren Qiong also fell silent.
Of course, this was not because he had repented, but because he was using Hetuluo Shu urgently to see if there were any problems, but the effect was ineffective.
To be continued...
