"These two places are the largest Buddhist and Taoist gathering places around Wanguo City, and they often communicate with each other. Master Vacuum is extremely talented and is the strongest outer disciple of Lingshan Temple. And I..."

Seeing that the other party was deliberately showing off, Chen Duoyu smiled and continued:

"Is he the strongest outer disciple of Qingyun Temple?"

The Taoist priest's tone softened instantly:

"No, I am the weakest inner disciple Zhang Xiaoyi. In terms of debate, there may be a chance of victory. If we talk about fighting, I have no chance of winning."

Seeing this result after a long time of preparation, Chen Duoyu was amused:

"The inner disciples should be cared for deeply. Why do you want to come to the city to develop?"

"Oh, it's hard to say."

Zhang Xiaoyi shook his head and changed the subject again:

"Shopkeeper, let's talk about work. I just saw the notice and I don't know what to do specifically?"

"It's not a big deal. I just guard the shop, register and receive visitors. I will make other arrangements."

"Oh, how much is your monthly salary?"

Chen Duoyu did not answer in a hurry, but asked instead:

"How much wages do you want?"

Zhang Xiaoyi touched the back of his head and said with a shy smile:

"I don't have high requirements. Just be the same as the Vacuum Master."

"He only asks for food and accommodation, and no wages. Are you willing to such conditions?"

"Ah?" Zhang Xiaoyi looked bitter and flinched: "Then... let me think about it again."

As soon as I finished speaking, my stomach growled.

He swallowed and quickly made a decision:

"Shopkeeper, I've thought about it. When will we have dinner?"

Chen Duoyu smiled knowingly and judged his character based on the brief contact.

He is smart and knows how to adapt to the changing circumstances, but he cannot endure hardship.

Such a character is destined to fail to achieve great things.

It's more than enough for just being a front desk person.

"Let's go back and eat together now."

Chen Duoyu brought Zhang Xiaoyi back to the Su Mansion with the intention of taking the exam.

Whether you are suitable for a front desk position depends on your specific performance.

"Dong dong dong."

"Come on, come on."

The maid Mengli heard the noise and took the initiative to open the door.

Chen Duoyu raised his hand and pointed back, and ordered:

"Mengli, prepare an extra set of dishes and chopsticks for later."

"Yes, uncle."

"Beautiful young lady, are you busy? Otherwise, I can help you."

Zhang Xiaoyi's mouth was as if it were covered with honey, and she was very attentive.

Chen Duoyu saw this and frowned slightly.

One point will be deducted for not recognizing Mengli as a fox demon.

Licking, or being a little impatient, one point will be deducted.

Since everyone has been summoned, it would be a bit inhumane to drive them away.Watch it for two days, and if it doesn't work, let him go.

The four of them came to the corridor and met Su Nannan head-on.

"Wow, fairy sister."

Chen Duoyu turned his head to look at Zhang Xiaoyi and warned:

"This is my fiancée, don't make random decisions."

"No, no, I am a mortal. I only have admiration and appreciation for fairies, but I don't dare to mess around."

Su Nannan covered her mouth and snickered, and the compliments were very helpful:

"Mr. Chen, who is this?"

"Whether the newly recruited people can stay or not depends on their performance. Let's go and eat."

Everyone walked into the living room, and Su Mingtang and his son had already taken their seats in advance.

When Zhang Xiaoyi saw this, his face turned pale with fright and he backed away:

"Monster... monster..."

His panicked look showed no moral integrity.

Sujiji felt displeased, stood up, pointed at Mengli, and argued:

"She is also a fox demon, why didn't you tell her?"

Zhang Xiaoyi relied on the vacuum at the scene and rebutted based on reason:

"How can she be considered a monster if she is so beautiful?"

"Huh??? Then you mean to say that I am ugly."

"Oh, I didn't say that. You said it yourself."

Su Jiji clenched his fists, feeling that this human being deserved a beating.

"Okay, okay, sit down and eat."

Chen Duoyu acted as a peacemaker and scored in his mind.

He knew that Mengli was a fox demon, but he didn't tell her, so the deduction was cancelled.

But one point will still be deducted for subsequent performance.

Currently, it's minus two points.

……

The sun sets and the sky becomes dark.

To the north of Wanguo City, in the forest, is the weasel demon's den.

Several black figures in cloaks stood in front of an unmarked tombstone.

"Brother Huang, I will take your revenge!"

……

020 Stinky monk, don’t come over!

When night falls, Eve and other stowaways arrive outside a high wall somewhere.

Go through the hole opened below and sneak back to the south of the city.

If you take the main road, you will encounter sentries checking you along the way.

If you want to pass freely, you must have relevant formalities and documents.

The new area in the south of the city occupied by foreigners is not as full of gold as imagined.

This is like the imperial capital ruled by Queen Victoria, with obvious differences between the rich and the poor.

While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone.

There are skinny beggars on the street, as well as well-dressed rich men.

Eve lowered the brim of her hat, walked through the streets, and came to a residential area.

For safety reasons, she walked around the neighborhood several times.

After confirming that no one was following him, he took out the key from under the flower bed and opened the door.

The area inside the house is not large, only twenty or thirty square meters.

Her master, Catherine, was lying in bed with her eyes closed.

"I'm back."

Eve hung the coat on the hanger, took off the bag and shook it:

"Guess how much there is in it? It's a full 50 taels, which is enough for our expenses for a whole year."

Catherine had long golden hair and suddenly opened her eyes:

"Who did you sell to? Charlotte from Yuebuluo Heavy Industry?"

"No, I sneaked to the north of Wanguo City and sold it to a monk. His senior brother fought with a robber before and had one of his hands cut off. Selling the mechanical arm to such a person can be considered a good ending."

Catherine regarded money as garbage and was quite dissatisfied with her apprentice's behavior:

"You should just give it to such a righteous person, why should you charge money?"

"Master..."

Eve pouted, looking very aggrieved:

"The machine shop was smashed, and we don't have money to eat."

Catherine took a firm stance and refuted:

"So what? Can you bear to accept money from your family?"

"Master, it wasn't him who gave me the money, it was another shopkeeper."

"Treasurer?"
