According to the rules of the inner court, the newly purified young eunuchs had a three-month intensive recuperation period to ensure the survival rate after the purification, and they were able to quickly work after being assigned to various departments.

In the blink of an eye, these three months have passed.

At the end of the scorching summer, the air was a little more bleak and cold in autumn, and the grass and trees in the courtyard began to show signs of yellowing, and even the fallen leaves on the ground were much more than before.

In the backyard that Chang Fu and the others opened up for Su Shan alone, the cauldron and wooden shelf used to practice the Iron Claw Gong were still standing, but Su Shan was not in front of him, it was not that he was lazy, he was in the southeast corner of the courtyard, facing a tree trunk that was about the thickness of a man's waist, and he waved his palms quickly.

Smack!

As the iron claws of his hands kept slapping against the trunk of the tree, layers of bark and wood chips were torn off, and the roots of the tree had accumulated a thick layer, even his shoes were covered, and on the trunk, there were dense finger holes, each as deep as an inch or two.

"Hoo ......"

After practicing for about two hours, Su Shan's forehead and nose were already covered with sweat, and even his clothes were wet and sticking to his back, and he was really exhausted, so he stopped.

At this moment, his hands had completely changed their appearance, no longer as slender and white as before, the tips of his fingers were covered with a thick layer of calluses, and the ten fingers were like crude sticks, and the nails were even more horrible, rough and astringent, curved like the claws of birds!

This is the result of his three months of hard work, his skin and muscles have been replaced by the friction of fine sand and stones, and all the nails have fallen off and grown again, because when he grows new nails, he is constantly rubbed by sand and stones, which has become such a terrifying appearance.

However, because of this, he also completed the first layer of cultivation of the Iron Claw Skill!

Now he is cultivating the second layer, as for the results, it is also quite good, according to his estimate, he can easily penetrate the three layers of planks, continue to cultivate according to this state, in less than two months, he will be able to complete the second layer of cultivation, and move towards the Iron Claw Achievement!

"Boss Su, the people from the worship room are here, you have to go over. ”

When Su Shan was rinsing his hands with water, Chang Fu's voice came from behind him, and he turned his head to look over, the latter was standing nervously at the door, slightly arched, and his fat face was full of crampedness!

In the past three months, Chang Fu watched Su Shan practice martial arts desperately, his hands seemed to be crushed and reshaped, he had been completely shocked by the latter's madness and ruthlessness, standing so far away and talking, he had a little trembling legs and stomachs.

"Got it, I'll go right over!"

Su Shan picked up the towel prepared on the side and gently wiped his palms, while his eyes flickered slightly.

When the people from the worship room came over, they should check whether the eunuchs, including themselves, were cleansed thoroughly, and after the inspection was over, they should be assigned to each other, and they didn't know where they would be assigned?

"No matter where you are, you must take advantage of the opportunity!"

He muttered to himself and left the backyard.

The inspection of the worship room went very smoothly, in less than half an hour, all the people were checked, and there was no abnormal situation, and the next thing was to distribute these people, Su Shan stood in the crowd, quietly waiting for his name.

"Su Shan, the eunuch of the imperial dining room. ”

Not long after, the white-faced old eunuch reported his whereabouts, and Su Shan, along with the other three little eunuchs, came to a middle-aged eunuch with a slightly obvious belly, a greasy face, and eyes like mung beans.

"My name is Shao Dahai, and I am the head of the imperial dining room, you will follow me in the future, you can call me Shao Dahai!"

The middle-aged eunuch said with a smile, looking very enthusiastic, Su Shan and the three little eunuchs all respectfully saluted this Shao Zhangshi, and then followed him out of the courtyard.

"Finally sent this guy away, we can relax!"

In the distance, Chang Fu and a few companions saw Su Shan being led away by Shao Dahai, and their faces showed a look of relief, especially Chang Fu was even more happy and had the urge to cry, these three months of serving Su Shan, it was simply walking on thin ice, this guy was suspicious, thoughtful, and ruthless, they didn't dare to have the slightest slack!

I'm afraid of suffering!

Now, it's finally over!

"Don't have that kind of person in the future...... We can't take it anymore!"

......

The imperial dining room is divided into two parts, the inner imperial dining room and the outer imperial dining room, the inner imperial dining room is responsible for the meals of the emperor and his relatives in the inner court, and the outer imperial dining room is responsible for the meals of these eunuchs, palace maids, and some guards on duty in the palace.

Su Shan and three other little eunuchs followed behind Shao Dahai, all the way through two straight roads, and then walked through three or four crooked and remote paths, and finally came to their residence, which was a collective house, but it was much better than the place where he had cultivated before, the sun was abundant, and it looked very neat.

"This is your bed, and the eunuchs in the dining room are all four people in a room, and the four of you are just right, and here are your clothes, three thin shirts, three autumn shirts, and two pairs of shoes, and the bedding is ready-made...... We have the rules of the dining room, and you will ...... in the future."

Shao Dahai chattered, and began to tell them the main responsibilities of the dining room and some rules that must be followed, Su Shan and the others stood aside respectfully, listening carefully, and soon after everything was finished, Shao Dahai asked them to clean up first, and he turned around and left the house.

"Shao is in charge!"

Su Shan's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly ran out of the house, followed behind Shao Dahai with a humble face, and at the same time took out a cloth bag containing twenty taels of silver from his arms, stuffed it into the latter's hand without a trace, and then said with a smile,

"The little one's name is Su Shan, he is new to the city, he doesn't understand many rules, Shao Zhangshi is used to seeing the wind and rain, and he is a person who eats very well in this dining room, please take care of it in the future, thank you in advance!"

"Hmmm......"

Shao Dahai gently weighed the weight of the silver, and there was a smug look on his greasy face, he stuffed the silver into his arms, and then patted Su Shan's shoulder and smiled,

"Su Shan, right? Yes, yes, I remembered, do things well, I won't treat you badly in the future!"

"Thank you Shao, you go slowly!"

Su Shan bowed to Shao Dahai with a smile, almost waiting for his figure to go far away, then he frowned and straightened up, he didn't want to be so low, but it had to be so, if you want to climb up in the harem court, you sometimes have to be a dog for others!

Perhaps, not even a dog!

"Sooner or later, one day, I will stand in front of people!"

Su Shan stared at Shao Dahai's distant figure, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and then turned around and went back to the house.

......

I have to say that the twenty taels of silver that Su Shan gave to Shao Dahai had a very obvious effect, and soon, he was assigned to the place where the work in the dining room was the easiest and the most oily and watery, and the internal food supervisor was responsible for delivering meals to the emperor's concubines and the queen mother.

Only when it is about to deliver food will it be a little busier here, and the rest of the time is relatively free, Su Shan can secretly practice the Iron Claw Skill, and in the blink of an eye, another two months have passed, and he has completed the second layer of the Iron Claw Skill!

At this moment, the power of his single finger could easily penetrate the nine layers of planks!

During this period, because he gave Shao Dahai most of the oil and water he got, and his attitude was quite sincere and respectful, he was truly appreciated by Shao Dahai and became one of his henchmen.

"Let me tell you, Chen Ting Chen, the chief manager of our imperial dining room, is my godfather, and when my godfather is promoted in the future, the position of this chief manager is mine, you follow me to do a good job, and I will hand over the affairs of this dining room to you!"

The night was deep, the firelight in the room flickered slightly, and the fat face of Shao Dahai was a little red, and he patted him on the shoulder while taking the silver sent by Su Shan and said,

"But now, I'll give you a little bit of benefit, from tomorrow, you will be promoted to foreman, mainly responsible for the queen mother's meal, this is the biggest job of oil and water, you have to do a good job, don't embarrass me." ”

"The little one thanks Shao Zhangshi, he will definitely not live up to Shao Zhangshi's hard work!"

Su Shan showed a hint of joy on his face, and knelt respectfully at Shao Dahai's feet.

In just two months, he was promoted to the foreman of the kitchen, and he was also able to be in charge of the queen mother's meals, which was an extremely fast promotion for Su Shan, even in the entire inner court, it was rare to be so fast.

What's more, in charge of the Queen Mother's meals, there is also the opportunity to contact the Queen Mother, who has been here for a long time, Su Shan already knows that now that the emperor is young, most of the power of the Great Wei Dynasty is in the hands of this high Queen Mother!

If you can find a way to get the appreciation of the Queen Mother, then the real opportunity to ascend to heaven will come!

"Go ahead, it's time for me to rest!"

After saying everything that should be said, Shao Dahai had a smile on his face, and stuffed a token into Su Shan's hand, signaling that he could leave.

"Yes, the little one is retired, and Shao has a good rest!"

Su Shan bowed respectfully and slowly exited the room, and after closing the door, he looked up at the gloomy night, and the heat in his eyes gradually faded and turned into calm.

After a moment of silence, he muttered to himself,

"It's just the foreman, there's still a long way to go!"

After saying that, he crept out of the courtyard and walked towards his dwelling, and in less than half an hour, he gently turned back.

He forgot one thing, he got some ginseng from the imperial dining room a few days ago, he originally wanted to honor Shao Dahai, but he just heard about being promoted to foreman, and he forgot it for a while!

"Shao is in charge of ......"

He saw that Shao Dahai's room was still lit and should not have slept, so he walked over cautiously, and just stretched out his hand to knock on the door, he heard a cold and shrill laugh from inside,

"Don't worry, that Su Shan has been fooled, I promoted him to be the foreman today, and I am grateful that I will kneel on the ground and lick my shoes, this matter, he will definitely do a good job for us, and then push him out and cut off his head, no one will suspect that it will be on our heads......"
