Chapter 112: Establishing the Church
We rested at home for a day, Wang Erdonkey couldn't hold it back, took the key, and asked me to go to see the house in the county seat.
The address of the house is in the southwest corner of the county, we took a small guest to the county, and then made three jumps, and then we arrived at the place. When I arrived, it was quite a large courtyard, and there were several low-rise houses in it. From the gate of the courtyard, the courtyard is full of all kinds of metal and plastic waste, and the whole garbage station.
We glanced at each other, but we didn't expect it to be such a dilapidated house, and the disappointment in our hearts was hard to hide. We pinched our noses and went into the courtyard and saw a large poster posted on the wall, which read, "Look at the future, look at the study, look at the official luck, look at the health, criticize the eight characters, be able to crack it, look at the good luck, and calculate the fate". Wang Erdonkey and I looked at each other, but I didn't expect that there were peers here.
The door of a side room opened, and an old man wearing sunglasses came out of it, with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, a face full of folds, and a dirty black cotton jacket. ”
Wang Erdonkey waved his hand and said, "We don't look at anything, we also open a store." He looked at the address in his hand, found the house to the west, and poked it open with the key, and we were almost not smoked out by a musty smell.
The area of this room is quite large, it can be eighty or ninety square meters, but it is full of rags, the ceiling is full of cobwebs, and the ash on the windowsill can be a finger thick.
Wang Erdonkey jumped to his feet and scolded: "I know that the southerners are not good cakes, and I am willing to gamble and lose and let us go to the county to open the hall, it turns out that it is such a broken place." I can rent it for fifty dollars a month, which is cheap for him. ”
I pushed him: "Don't talk so much about uselessness, since you're here, let's clean up." ”
At this time, the other residents in the courtyard came out to see the excitement, we frowned at a glance, there are several families living here, there are a batch of old blind people, there are thirty or forty-year-old old ladies who do secret doors, there are old ladies who pick up rags, there are old men who petition households, anyway, they are all grassroots people in society.
The neighbors were very welcoming, and when they heard that we were going to clean up the place, they all came to help. I didn't let them get started, we just met, so I'm not embarrassed. I called Hei Dazhuang, and as soon as Hei Dazhuang heard that he had cleaned up the house and said that it was no problem, he immediately arranged for a few people to come over.
About half an hour later, a truck came, and three or four young men came down, greeted us, and began to pack up. These people look like perennial workers, and the work they do is called a mally, and after a short time, the house is emptied, and the tattered is loaded into the car and ready to be pulled to the garbage station. The old lady who picked up the rags hurriedly handed me and the driver's business cards, asked if she could take care of her business, and pulled the rags to her garbage station, with the address below.
I beckoned my brothers not to hurry to go, and it was just noon, and even they brought the neighbors in the compound to the small restaurant at the corner of the street to eat. It is close to the slums, and the restaurant often entertains the small people, and the cooking is generous, the taste is strong, and the price is cheap, which is really good.
After eating, the young men who helped were sent away, and the neighbors helped to clean up the house. Although it is still a little dilapidated, it is much stronger than when I first came, and it can basically be used for office and people.
The old blind man called him Master Li, and Master Li said that there was a labor market at the end of the north, and there was a store selling furniture next to it, and the price was fair.
I discussed with Wang Erdonkey how the room should be designed. The front is the office area, separated by a screen in the middle, and the back is our living area, which will be permanent here in the future.
In the remaining days, Wang Erdonkey and I bought things, and our two big men didn't have any sense of beauty, but with the help of a secret elder sister in the compound, we finally had a little bit of appearance.
Wang Erdonkey went back to his hometown and transported the old fairy's hall, and the visitors could see it when they opened the door, which was quite atmospheric.
It's almost time to clean up, ask the old blind man to check the yellow calendar, and find a good day and auspicious day, and there are few people to inform. The last time we opened a hall in the village, it was very unpleasant, this time we plan to keep a low profile, so we won't make a big fanfare, and I informed Hei Dazhuang among my friends.
Early in the morning, Wang Erdonkey and I hung a thousand firecrackers, and the neighbors in the compound were really good, so they collectively bought flower baskets and sent them over. When it was almost noon, Hei Dazhuang came with a small leather bag, and the employees behind him carried a large flower basket, he visited our place, smiled and said that it was good, much stronger than when he first started his business.
Hei Dazhuang is very well-connected, black and white can eat both, I joked that let him take care of business more in the future. Hei Dazhuang patted his chest: "That's a must, you are all my brothers." ”
At noon, Wang Erdonkey and I lit firecrackers, but I didn't expect Li Lingdang and Xiaoxue to come too. We greeted each other and hurriedly went to the house to ask, Xiaoxue said: "I came in a hurry this time, I didn't buy anything, you two just opened a hall, and there are many places to use money, so take this thousand." ”
Wang Er Donkey and I don't want it, Xiaoxue got angry: "Everyone is the same way, don't be so twisting and pinching, take it quickly." ”
Wang Erdonkey accepted the money, and Xiaoxue pulled me to a place where no one was, "Xiao Feng, I went to Dandong a few days ago. ”
I chuckled in my heart: "What about Mr. Liang?" ”
Xiaoxue shook her head: "He's gone, the house is locked, and he quit his job at the school and disappeared again." ”
I took a breath and didn't speak.
Xiaoxue said: "You also have my phone, if he comes to trouble you, you can call me." I nodded, and we talked about some other things, Xiaoxue told me that she would leave the Northeast in a few days and go back to Jiangbei, and her family was also there, and invited me to travel there when I was fine.
How could I be in the mood to run so far, and now there are a lot of things, so I can only cope and say, look at the time.
Xiaoxue asked me when I planned to come out of the court, so that she could come back and be my guide.
To be honest, I've come up with it now, but I always feel uneasy and feel like I don't have a clue about many things. I don't want to be so hasty, another one, now that Wang Erdonkey's hall has just been erected, I can't choose such a knot, and I will help him stabilize the hall first.
At noon, firecrackers were lit, crackling, and Wang Erdonkey's hall was officially out. Wang Erdonkey invited guests, a large group of people went to the restaurant to eat, sitting in a large private room, although everyone is a poor people, but it can be regarded as a full group.
After eating, Wang Erdonkey and I picked our teeth and came back with the neighbors in the compound. Wang Erdonkey stepped forward to push the door, but he didn't expect the door to open by itself, he looked at me: "Lao Feng, you didn't lock the door when you went out." ”
"Yo, really, I was in too much of a hurry and forgot to lock the door. But our place is not a thief, it is a slum. I said.
As we entered the door, we saw two uninvited guests sitting in the room, talking. I immediately recognized that one of these two people was Wang Dashuang.
Wang Dashuang is the former driver of the mayor of the town, and he once took Yan Yuqing to smash the field when he was at the entrance of the old Wang's house, so he suffered a big loss, but he didn't expect him to come here again.
Wang Erdonkey was furious: "How did you get in? Are you burglarizing or breaking into a home? ”
Wang Dashuang smiled: "Brother Wang, don't speak so ugly." We've been here for a while, and you're not at home, so it's cold outside and you have to come in by yourself. Besides, if you open a door to do business, do you know if the customer is God? ”
Wang Erdonkey scolded: "I know that your grandmother has a leg, surnamed Wang, we don't do your business, please be smart." ”
Wang Dashuang smiled and said, "I know so many fragrant children, and Baba came to you to see a stinky face." The entrance of your old Wang's family is also in the countryside, let's talk about the big city, even in this county, you can't dance. I'm here to introduce you to a person, who is a good friend of mine, and who also opened a hall in the county. ”
He introduced the guests around him. This man was a big fat man, with a shaved head and a smile, like Maitreya Buddha.
Wang Erdonkey and I didn't speak ill of each other, and the fat man took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over: "Everyone knows each other, my name is Wei Donghai, and I opened a small Buddhist hall shop, I hope the two of you have the opportunity to visit." ”
Wei Donghai and Wang Dashuang saw that their goal had been achieved, and they left triumphantly. When they left, Wang Erdonkey closed the door tightly: "The weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, obviously not according to his good intentions." ”
I looked at Wei Donghai's business card, thoughtfully, and said, "Do you think that fat man just now looks like a person?" ”
"Who?" Wang Erdonkey asked.
I shook my head: "It's familiar, I can't remember it." Forget it, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and in the future, there will be a lot of trouble, let's fight one by one, and do a pair of pairs. ”
"Haha, that's right." Wang Erdonkey patted me on the shoulder and said.
In the evening, Wang Erdonkey had to do his homework, which was required by Aunt Chen, the old fairy, and he had to recite the "Dizang Sutra" for an hour every day, which was also part of his practice.
Wang Erdonkey was sitting on the futon, guarding the old fairy's offering table, and chanting while turning the Buddhist scriptures. This is homework, and I can't just disturb and sit on the bed inside through the curtain. Huang Xiaotian told me in his heart that Wang Erdonkey's Taoism is indeed not simple, and when he read this "Dizang Sutra", Huang Xiaotian felt very much when he heard it, and he trembled with the syllables of the spell, and there was a kind of resonance.
I sat cross-legged on the bed, listening to the sound of Buddhist scriptures outside. At this time, Wang Erdonkey suddenly stopped. He greeted me outside: "Old Feng, come out for a while." ”
I dragged my shoes to the front and asked what was wrong. Wang Erdonkey stood up from the ground and said solemnly: "Just now the old fairy told me that an evil ghost has entered the house. ”
I asked what it meant. As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Wang Erdonkey and I looked at each other.
