My Book of Ten Thousand Jobs in the Godly World

Chapter 23: Tiger Descending the Mountain, the Haunted Lu Mansion (please follow up)
  "The requirements of the nursing home... the ability to lift two hundred kilograms of stones, strong warriors will be given priority. The wages will be one or two per month. You can go to the store to discuss in detail."

These two hundred kilograms are considered the threshold for promotion to the apprenticeship.

If you reach this threshold, you can receive a salary of 500 cash per month.

For strong warriors, the amount doubled to one or two.

The treatment can be said to be quite good.

He saw that the few recruiters, water ghosts, and peddlers who ran errands from the shop all earned two to three hundred cash a month.

With this kind of salary, I could barely make ends meet. Only the natives can bear it.

Nursing is a high-paying profession.

Especially when he is much stronger than he is now.

However, Ji Yuan has no intention of changing the family.

When a new minister is first established, his authority must be extremely high.

Once you go up there, you will reach the sky in one step.

What's more, to take a step back.

Although today's apprentices are miserable, they will be able to survive until they are able to earn a salary and eat royal food.

That is the real freedom from worries about food and clothing.

For several months outside the city, Ji Yuan was able to get a glimpse of the great turmoil beneath his feet.

Only when you have an iron rice bowl to protect your bottom line can you slowly make progress and make gains while accumulating thickly.

As the saying goes, the end of the world is to eat royal food.

With this status, whether you are marrying a wife and having children, buying a house and settling down, or accumulating connections to make money and maintain your health, you can avoid many detours.

But out of the Mortuary Department.

If you want an official position, you want an iron rice bowl.

It's time to take the civil and military examinations.

That's how thousands of troops walk on a single-plank bridge.

Therefore, Ji Yuan will never give up this identity unless he has a last resort or a particularly good opportunity.

Ji Yuan scanned them one by one.

There are only a few people who recruit workers, and the most common people are those who are looking for sons, looking for things, and those who recruit experts.

All in all.

And those who dare to post a reward on the list will ask for a high price.

The minimum is one tael, and the maximum is ten taels of silver.

"interesting."

Ji Yuan continued to look for any errands suitable for him.

"The eldest daughter of Mr. Lu's family was possessed by a ghost and stayed on the bed for a long time. She asked a good doctor or master to save her. Afterwards, she would be rewarded ten taels."

Ji Yuan's eyes lit up as he read these words.

The opportunity to make money is here, isn’t it?

He didn't know what it was like to be possessed by a ghost, but if it was a real ghost, it would have its own use.

Ji Yuan took a look at the address marked below, turned around and left.

"This boy."

Ji Yuan was stopped.

Looking back, I saw a little old man with a stooped back.

"Sir, do you want to consider taking over this job of reading lists? You will have one day off every month, and the salary will be 850 Wen."

Ji Yuan smiled and waved his hand, "No."

The old man is the worker who sits here and reads to the illiterate people who read the list but cannot read.

The little old man didn't give up and took two steps closer.

"When you are in the world, don't care too much about face. If you are down and out, you should first find a job to support your family and then think about it in the long term, right?"

Ji Yuan still shook his head, "I appreciate your kindness."

He didn't explain much and walked directly towards Lu's yard.

The old man just now probably thought that he was a former young master who had fled because of his literacy and poor appearance.

“Excellent sponge cake~”

"Pork offal soup, mutton offal soup, meat for five cents!"

There are two completely different scenes inside and outside Blackstone County.

With the lively cries and fireworks, the delicious food that dazzles the eyes and excites the taste buds pops out one after another.

Where had he seen these in mass graves?

The food is really not as good as a pig.

"It's better to stay in the city."

Ji Yuan sighed and suddenly saw a painting shop.

"Wenfang Pavilion."

Ji Yuan walked in and saw that both paintings and the Four Treasures of the Study were for sale.

"Sir, what do you want?"

The shopkeeper smiled and came over to ask questions.

He didn't show any dissatisfaction because of Ji Yuan's shabby clothes.

"May I ask if your store has a picture of a tiger descending from the mountain?"

"Yes! I knew you had good taste as soon as the young master opened your mouth."

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "This painting has a good artistic conception. Hanging it in the front hall can increase good luck, and hanging it in the bedroom can scare away ghosts and evil spirits."

"Is there such a thing?" Ji Yuan didn't take it seriously. He just wanted to listen to what the salesperson said.

"Isn't that right? Nowadays, big and small dignitaries in the city will do one."

Ji Yuan nodded and watched.

"How much does this painting cost?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "This picture of a tiger descending from a mountain is not easy to draw. An ordinary landscape painting only needs one or two points of artistic conception, but the picture of a tiger descending from a mountain must depict the tiger's momentum."

"If you are not a master who is well versed in this art, you cannot draw it."

When Ji Yuan heard this, he knew that this painting would not be cheap.

"The minimum is sixteen taels per pair. Please ask the master to take action. Please calculate separately."

"There's only one left in the store, and I'll tell you from the bottom of my heart, it's really not that interesting, so I saved it until the end. If you really want it, I'll sell it to you for fifteen taels."

Ji Yuan nodded calmly.

I was so shocked that my teeth ached.

Fifteen taels!

"Where are the stone lions? Do you have them in the store?"

"It doesn't have to be too big, just something smaller." Ji Yuan stretched out his hand and made a gesture about the size of a fist.

Although the Wanshishu stipulates that the condition for promotion is a pair of stone lions.

But it doesn’t say whether the stone lion is big or small, right?

The shopkeeper smiled awkwardly, "Hey, the one you're making is only about the size of a tea pet."

"I guess I'll have to find someone to carve one."

"We don't sell this in our store." Ji Yuan nodded suddenly, "Then I'll take a look first and come back another day."

"Okay, you go slowly."

Ji Yuan walked out quickly and walked along the long street to Lu's house.

I didn't see any big teahouses or stone carving businesses on the road.

All the way to the Lu family's mansion.

The walls of the huge house are three meters high. From the door to the house, seven or eight people are already sitting there.

Obviously they are all 'experts' who came here to take away these ten taels of silver.

A middle-aged housekeeper saw Ji Yuan and stepped forward quickly.

"Are you also here to treat young lady?"

Ji Yuan nodded.

"May I ask where you come from?"

"Corpse Department."

"Oh~"

The middle-aged housekeeper didn't say much, just showed Ji Yuan a seat and left.

Soon,
  Only a scream was heard from inside the house.

The sound of pinging bells rang.

Everyone stood up and looked into the courtyard.

It's a pity that there is a rockery across the entrance, so you can't see the truth inside at all.

"This woman is no longer a human being!"

"Master Lu, let's ask the officers and soldiers to kill him."

There were shouts and panic.

soon.

An old Taoist priest wearing a yellow robe and holding a whisk with few hairs left walked quickly towards the crowd.

His right hand was hanging weakly on the ground, and blood continued to fall to the ground like a thread.

The old Taoist glanced at everyone and hurried away without saying a word.

see this scene.

Of the seven people originally lined up in front of Ji Yuan, only one strong man with an ax was left.

The previous housekeeper walked over from the inner courtyard with a embarrassed expression.

"Two of you, who comes first?"

"I come."

The strong man strode in.

But in just twenty or thirty breaths, the big man rushed out quickly with a pale face.

He rushed out of the house directly.

Is that scary?
  Seeing this posture, Ji Yuan's heart began to beat.

He greeted the approaching housekeeper and walked towards the boudoir of Mr. Lu's daughter.

As for Mr. Lu, he was already hiding behind the doorpost, looking a little frightened.

"Be careful, the bed boards and objects in the house will... fly..."

The butler stammered.

can fly?

Ji Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Standing outside the door, he whispered to himself.

Soothe the soul!

Blue light flashed in his eyes.

In his ears, there was no death rattle like a baby when the ghost spirit of the corpse was separated from the body and shattered.

Not a ghoul?

Ji Yuan then opened the door and walked into the house.

boom!
  The door slammed shut.

The huge boudoir was already in a mess.

Gauze curtains were hung from the rafters and stools.

Two wooden stools had been dismantled into wooden sticks with blood stains on the wooden spines.

There is also a picture of a tiger descending from the mountain hanging on the wall, which should be used to ward off evil spirits.

Unfortunately it's obviously of no use.

on the bed.

A girl wearing a bright red nightgown leaned her legs on the edge of the bed.

Although his eyes were dull, they were not dull.

It's just that the originally fair and pink cheeks are now covered with lines like veins.

Ji Yuan took two steps towards the girl.

call!
  The green light all over his body instantly jumped up and overflowed outside his body.

Ghosts, definitely ghosts.

just,

This green light actually overflowed and never dispersed, and most of it was always firmly grasped on Miss Lu's body.

Looking at the eyes, the person should still be alive.

Ghosts lurking?

Ji Yuan instantly thought of what Zhang Miao had said before.

He himself was once possessed by the spirit of a ghoul and lurking there.

He remembered that this ghost would take over the body after death and transform into a ghost.

And this Miss Lu should be in a situation where she is about to die, right?

Ji Yuan already had a rough guess.

He approached Miss Lu step by step.

Miss Lu also seemed to see a monster, her body was as agile as a normal person, and she cowered into the bed in fear.

But a bed is only that big.

Miss Lu quickly shrank into the corner.

But the ghost on her body was still clinging to Miss Lu's edge.

It looks like it's about to fall apart, but it won't.

This ghost spirit is a bit strong.

But Ji Yuan is not one to give up when faced with difficulties.

"Miss Lu, I'm offended!"

Ji Yuan gave a low drink and went directly to bed.
