Chapter 29 Buying Live Meat

Chapter 29 Buying Live Meat

Magistrate of Zhoushan County!
Zhu Qi was shocked and asked, "Why can't you give it to me?"

"We ghosts are not greedy for money." The stall owner said: "This piece of meat is really reserved by someone who is willing to build a temple for me and offer incense to me. That's why I went to the county town to buy the meat from the fat magistrate."

As he said that, the stall owner spat and said with extreme disdain: "This county magistrate actually committed such an evil thing against human ethics with his niece, it is a real crime and deserves to be cut to death!"

Only then did Zhu Qi understand that what the stall owner wanted was to build a temple to collect incense, and if there were incense to worship, he could not be called a ghost, but a god.

Its ambition is not small.

"How many temples did that person promise to build for you, and how many incense sticks would he give you?" Zhu Qi asked.

The stall owner said with a smile: "One temple, three incense sticks per day."

Seems very happy with the price.

"In my opinion, this person is greedy and hateful!" Zhu Qi shook his head and said, "Since he got the magistrate's meat, he will definitely become an official in the future. How difficult is it to build a temple as a county magistrate?"

"The magistrate's salary is only a few tens of taels of silver a year. I'm not those female ghosts who are greedy for the world of mortals. You can't fool me." The stall owner directly pointed out what Zhu Qi meant. It had been looking at Zhu Qi just now to coax Female ghosts, those female ghosts had no brains when they were alive, and they were still brainless after death, so they were easily played around by Zhu Qi.

Zhu Qi was not surprised when he was seen through. He didn't think that all the ghosts in the world have no brains, but continued: "This is not right, brother, in the eyes of us living people, money can buy life, but in the eyes of you... ...In the eyes of this group, there is no difference between silver taels and stones on the side of the road. They come here to be happy, and exchange what they see as trash for what I have earned with my life. Everyone gets what they need and is happy."

The stall owner shook his head with a smile, his expression clearly said: If you talk like a tongue, I will not be deceived.

Seeing that the other party ignored him, Zhu Qi continued: "Brother, you are really simple. Just now you said that the magistrate only has a few dozen taels of silver a year. If the magistrate only earns such a little income, why do scholars work hard day and night? Building bridges Repairing roads, smelting silver and burning fire, and those who fill their pockets with private pockets will cost at least a thousand or ten thousand taels of silver a year, and building a temple for you will only cost dozens of taels of silver at most. Three sticks of incense a day, How many taels can I spend in a year?"

What Zhu Qi said was Dayan's normal state, and there are very few officials who are not corrupt in this era.

The stall owner's face changed slightly: "What you said is true?"

Thinking in his heart, Zhu Qi Zhu Qi continued: "Brother, do you know that people are greedy? You help him to be an official and earn thousands of taels of silver a year, but he only spends a few dozen taels to build you a temple. Don't you feel aggrieved?"

"What! The real heart is sinister!" The stall owner was furious, his face suddenly swelled up and turned livid.

The aura it released in an instant is comparable to that of Long Yuxing!
This ghost is at least comparable to the strength of the Seventh Realm of Martial Dao!

Zhu Qi was startled, gritted his teeth and nodded on the surface, "Why don't you sell me this piece of meat, brother, and after I get on the official career, I will definitely build ten temples for you, with incense burning every day and repaired every year. !"

"You are a man of integrity." The stall owner's blue face disappeared, and he nodded. It thought that Zhu Qi could tell all the "pros and cons" in it, which was much more reliable than the scholar who asked him before.

Humans and ghosts can see everything clearly when watching from the sidelines, but when their own interests are involved, they will lose their calmness.

As Zhu Qi thought before, people may be clean and self-sufficient, but ghosts are not greedy.

Those female ghosts are greedy for petty gains, while the green-faced ghost stall owner in front of him is greedy for incense and wants to become a god. If there is a better choice, the green-faced ghost stall owner will of course think about it.

There is a record in Qimen that if a person wants to become a ghost after death, he must have obsession or resentment. Such feelings can also be forcibly interpreted as "greed".

The stall owner said: "I will trust you just once, and I will go to you after the hospital exam is over."

"Hospital exam!" Zhu Qi's heart moved, why would a ghost care about the college exam?The only possibility is that the last person who ordered this piece of meat was a child student who was going to take the hospital examination.

"Brother, you want me to take the entrance exam?" Zhu Qi pretended to be suspicious: "I'm just a pastry salesman. Although I can read a few words, I have no education. They recognize me in the Four Books and Five Classics, but I don't recognize them. "

The stall owner said: "If you get this meat, you will get the official luck of the county magistrate. After the examination room, you can use it freely, you must pass, and you will definitely have an official position in the future... But, don't lie to me, if you want to renege, I will Then hook your soul and swallow you!"

"Brother, don't worry." Zhu Qi said solemnly: "If you really let me go into an official career as you said, I will definitely not renege on my debt. Then, brother, you can go to Jianmu Mansion to find me."

"Well, I believe you are a person of integrity." The stall owner said.

Zhu Qi smiled.

Have integrity?He had no intention of fulfilling his promise at all. Although this ghost said he had "principles", he did harm to others first. He waited for three months after the backyard test was over, and then reported to the higher authorities, so that people from Qimen would come and strangle this ghost.

Repudiation is certain.

One person and one ghost were very satisfied with this transaction. At this time, the woman selling eggs came over and asked, "Your meat is really so amazing?"

She also heard the conversation between Zhu Qi and the stall owner just now, knowing that the stall owner is not a human being, but she still had the courage to come here.

The stall owner smiled and said, "Of course it's true."

"You want money, happiness, or longevity, it doesn't matter."

The woman thought for a while, and said: "I have suffered all my life, and I married a lazy man. I have a hard time, and I want to get rich. But I have also seen the rich man, because the money in the family was missed, and the family was ruined... ...I'm just a woman, I don't know how to spend my money if I have too much money, if I can be like the young master in your family, I have someone to take care of me every day, and someone to take care of me when I dress and eat, and enjoy more blessings, that's enough."

The stall owner said: "Since you don't want money and you don't have official luck, I won't let you build a temple. After this little brother helps me build a temple, you must help me attract a hundred pilgrims."

The woman glanced at Zhu Qi, then nodded and said: "I have many relatives in my family, and this can be done for me."

After the two businesses were negotiated, the stall owner took the meat off the hook and tied it with a grass rope, just like tying pork. The knot tied the meat, and a long grass rope was left on top for easy lifting Follow the meat.

After handing it to the two, the stall owner asked: "Remember, the meat is only useful if you carry it with you. The straw rope cannot be untied. If you usually untie it, it's fine, but if you meet the original owner, untie the straw rope. The meat will run back."

"The meat has already been given to you, I don't care how to use it, but you must do what you promised me."

"Brother, please rest assured."

Zhu Qi put away the piece of fat from Weizhi County.

The woman also nodded, and hid the meat, but she didn't have the heart to sell the eggs, but closed the stall early and went home to prepare for a happy life with someone waiting on her.
