Chapter 12: The Gaze from Behind
The celebration banquet lasted until three o'clock in the afternoon, the drunken Lao Wan and Xiaolan I asked Xiaojun to send them home, Zhao Zhonghua and others also said goodbye one after another, while Boss Gu, Li Jiahu and several other major partners returned to the firm to discuss the future development.
To tell the truth, Mao Jin Office is in the limelight today, I believe that the business will be full of guests, but the miscellaneous hair trail is a lazy character, I used to be as diligent as the old cow, and now I have no worries about life, and I began to want to enjoy life, so we discussed finding a few more Feng Shui masters like Zhang Aini, who can calm the scene, otherwise we will be tired to death by the affairs of this office.
However, the famous feng shui fortune tellers either work alone or are attached to various offices, how can they be so easy to find?
Speaking of which, the iron-mouthed Zhang Aini, who I don't know where Lu Dao found it, is indeed a first-class talent, and under the guidance of the miscellaneous hairy Xiaodao, there is a tendency to be independent. I have a kind of joy to pick up the treasure, but I always feel that this woman is not simple, and the attitude towards her is not ordinary, and she is very respectful - in terms of her ability, there is nothing worthy of such importance to the miscellaneous hairy path?
It's all small talk, talking about Guan Zhiyi's things that day, Boss Gu pouted, and said Don't be surprised, the showbiz is a chaotic vanity fair, how dirty it is when you think of it-we don't mean that there are no artists with both virtue and art, it's just a mixture of fish and dragons, mud and sand, and people can't see it in vain - if you are willing to engage in things like planting a foundation, raising little ghosts, and chasing souls, the business will definitely be dozens of times hotter, believe it or not?
I shook my head and laughed, saying that such things are against heaven and harmony - ordinary people only think that God is above and don't care about this common life, but they don't know the way, the way of heaven is clear, and it is always everywhere and implicated in each other. Compared to these, I prefer to help some ordinary people and relieve their fears, even if they don't have any money - this may be the kind of pleasure I expected when I watched martial arts when I was a child, right?
Boss Gu and Li Jiahu are very satisfied with our work, in their opinion, whether the business is profitable or not is secondary, the main thing is to find one thing, to tie them together with me and the miscellaneous hairy path, and there is no reason not to help them in the future.
After the two of them left, I stood by the curtain wall of his office, watching the crowd and traffic shuttling under our feet, and sighed in our hearts.
I asked Lao Xiao, do you still miss the days when you used to wander around?
He nodded, shook his head again, and said how to say it, as Mr. Qian Zhongshu said, everything in this world is a besieged city, people outside envy the inside, and the inside wants to go out, and it is difficult to have both worlds. Let's stay here for the time being, walk around every day, and have fun at night, which is also a comfortable life.
He asked me if I would be able to eat alone at the Nujiang training camp next Friday.
Huiming's affairs, Zamao Xiaodao already knows, but he obviously understands the things in the system better than me, saying that even if the old monk wants to do the black, at least he will use the rules, and he will not do it brutally. He has lived to be almost eighty years old, and he will never be over--but then again, this old monk himself is the head coach, and the food is too ugly, why don't I accompany you?
I laughed and said that I am not a child who has not been weaned, besides, the more ruthless the tempering, the more successful it is, and there are tiger cats in the family who need to take care of it, so pay more attention to yourself - I always feel that the man next to Futongyuan Zhu Yi is a little dangerous, and it seems that he has seen it somewhere.
Miscellaneous Xiaodao raised his eyebrows, saying that he also felt that something was wrong, and that the guy could still feel his strong hostility although he tried his best to suppress his eyes.
We sighed in unison, there are pros and cons to everything, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and sure enough.
On Sunday, I went to the bureau again, said hello to the old janitor, and talked for a while in the office of the director of the second department, and the director told me to get ready, and fill out the form first when I come today, and then on Friday, I came to get my documents, went to the Nanfang City General Bureau to meet with others, and then flew straight to Spring City, and began to conduct intensive training.
He told me that this training camp is an important means for the State Administration to further the education of elite members of various sub-bureaus and religious associations, and that generally those who come out of it will be given priority to more important posts and become the backbone of our secret and hidden front. So, boy, come on, I'm optimistic about you......
I was speechless for a while, no wonder Zhao Zhonghua was so strange about my idea of wanting to quit the training camp, it seems that this training camp is still very popular.
It's like going to an important post in the system, you have to go to a party school for further study.
When I got out of the office of the director of the second department, I had nothing to do, so I mixed a meal in the canteen of the unit. Although they are jointly affiliated to the Dongguan Religious Affairs Bureau, few people in the agency know me, and even the lady who manages the dinner plate has to read my work card before she is willing to give me tableware. I was silently eating in the corner alone, enjoying this rare benefit, when suddenly a person sat down next to me, and I turned my head, but it was the porter.
I respectfully called him "Uncle Zhang", and he nodded and beckoned me to eat, not polite.
Then in just thirty minutes, the porter who made Zhao Zhonghua awe-inspiring ate eight chicken legs, two plates of river shrimp, ten pieces of curry pork chops with sauce and three bowls of white rice, and countless other side dishes, pork bones and soup made of lotus root and red beans, he drank two large bowls in a row.
I stuffed rice in my mouth, looking at this seventy-year-old man, and all in my mind was the allusion of "Lian Po is old, can he still eat". I won the number of the three alliances yesterday, and I was secretly proud in my heart, but I didn't expect that there was a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in this religious bureau, and the masters were among the people, how could I dare to underestimate this Dongguan hero?
At least I'm sure I'm not going to be able to eat that much at my age—and even then, I don't have that much to eat.
After dinner, I chatted with Uncle Zhang for a while, he is different from other old men, he does not like to talk about his glorious history, and he is an extremely low-key person. However, for my personal practice, he put forward some valuable advice: he said that since I have entered the innate realm of being able to sense "Qi", and have cultivated my body to the sound of tiger and leopard thunder, then I have to sharpen my mind - the capacity of the physical body is limited after all, but the energy between heaven and earth is unlimited, and if you want to become a real master, you must sense heaven and earth, communicate with heaven and earth, and turn the energy between heaven and earth into your own use.
Perhaps because of the inheritance, he didn't talk to me too much about the cultivation issues, but his guidance from a high vantage point made me suddenly enlightened.
The law of man and the earth, the law of the earth and the heavens, the law of heaven, the law of the Tao of nature, and the law of cultivation in the world, and that's it.
At the end of the speech, I stood up and bowed to Uncle Zhang of Zhenhumen, thanking him for his selfless guidance.
On the way back, I was brisk, I felt that the colors of the world were a little more exciting, as Uncle Zhang said, people as a container of strength, if there is no big opportunity, strength wants to get a short and rapid development, in addition to being as mad as Zhou Lin, through the evil art of killing people to transform themselves, you must stand at a height, the eternal matter and energy around it, into their own use.
How? Duoduo absorbs the power of the heavenly soul and the moon and tides, fat insects taste all kinds of poisons, and the little demons Duoduo Aoki Yigang, manipulating plants and trees, these are all these; And I can also balance with the energies that are active in heaven and earth, feel and comprehend, and when needed, like a dam that discharges the flood, it can be opened and all obstacles can be broken through - just like the magnanimity of the elder brother who acts according to the power of the heavens.
And I had to learn the methods in the training camp.
In the next few days, I was busy handing over the affairs at hand, and the office was just as we expected, and the number of customers gradually increased, word of mouth, and even wealthy businessmen from Pengshi, Hongshan, Jiangcheng and other places came to visit. For such a change, we from the beginning of the joy, to the back of the headache, so we also put the shelf up, unimportant things, by the iron mouth Zhang Aini to deal with, and we are responsible for the checks, but also to determine the membership priority system, annual fees, other customers need to make an appointment, scheduling time......
These have Su Menglin, a public relations specialist, in charge of business operations, and we don't have to worry too much.
After Guan Zhiyi left, she called me again and said that she would help our firm introduce her to many friends in the circle. In all fairness, Guan Zhiyi still has a certain influence in the entertainment industry and the social circle of the upper class, so the Mao Jin firm began to gradually become famous in the Pan-Pearl River Delta region - of course, this is a later story, and what I need to face is still the month-long training camp at the end of March.
The fat worm is my natal Gu, so naturally she wants to follow me, and Duoduo's reliance on me even exceeds that of the fat worm, so it must also be together, so Lu Yaoyao, an out-of-school girl, naturally follows, anyway, she was born with a jade body, can turn into a spirit, and she can still live if she squeezes the Huaimu brand.
Well, everyone else goes alone, and I, the one who dragged my family, can be regarded as a strange one.
On Wednesday, Su Menglin told me that he received a call from Qianmei International, saying that when they were digging the foundation, they dug out a hibernating snake, and the snake died, but the construction workers were half scared to death, let us go over and have a look. The miscellaneous hair trail went to show people the yang house that day, and Qianmei International was the first big market we took over, so I naturally didn't dare to be negligent, so I went with Lao Wan at home.
However, when I arrived at the construction site, I found myself being targeted, and my back was numb.
