Chapter 405 Are you all out of money?

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Huangquan Station opened its doors. Liang Zishu and Jian Xiangdi, two ghosts, arrived on time. The two ghosts were surprised to find that there was one more person in the station.

"Master Yan Qing, you guys are back so soon?" Liang Zishu asked curiously, "Didn't you go back to celebrate the master's birthday?"

"Is the stationmaster back too?"

Yan Qing looked up at her and said indifferently, "We came back after celebrating the master's birthday in the daytime. The ancestors are still in Xuzhou and haven't come back yet."

Every year, we go back to celebrate Taoist Master Xuan Yue’s birthday. It’s only for one day during the day. In the afternoon, everyone else leaves except those who stay in the Taoist temple.

We only spent the day together on my birthday and didn't even eat or chat together at night. It turns out that these gatherings with elders are not very fun, Liang Zishu thought.

"Then I'll leave it to you. We'll get to work." Liang Zishu said.

Yan Qing hummed softly.

Jian Xiangdi stood by and didn't say a word from beginning to end. He observed the conversation between Liang Zishu and Yan Qing calmly.

When they started working on the mountain, he couldn't help but whisper to Liang Zishu: "Master Yan Qing seems to have become gentler recently."

Liang Zishu was confused by his nonsensical words, "Master Yan Qing is gentle? How do you know that?"

Taoist Master Yan Qing has an expressionless and cold face every day. How can you see any gentleness in him?
"Hmm... gentle doesn't seem to be the right word. It seems to have changed... changed..." Jian Xiangdi racked his brains to think of what words to use to describe it. "Patience... patience, he seems to have become more patient."

Liang Zishu thought about it carefully and it seemed to be true. "Maybe it's because we are more familiar with each other now."

Suddenly she thought of what happened last night and said worriedly, "Little brother, do you think those two ghosts I beat up yesterday will complain about me?"

She was more worried about her job than her colleague's abnormality.

Will her salary be deducted if she complains about bad reviews?

"Even if you really file a complaint about a bad review, the webmaster will help you handle it." Jian Xiangdi comforted her, "Don't worry, it's not your fault."

Although Jian Xiangdi is a child, he speaks and acts calmly, like a little adult.

After hearing his comfort, Liang Zishu's worries instantly disappeared. She stared at Jian Xiangdi's immature and somewhat handsome face and sighed, "Little brother, if you were older, I would definitely pursue you."

Gentle, considerate and motivated boys are the type that many girls like.

Jian Xiangdi was confused by her words. Her pale face was slightly red. She said shyly, "Don't talk nonsense."

The innocent little boy blushed when he was teased. Liang Zishu's old lady heart began to stir. She asked with a gossipy look on her face, "Little boy, did you have a girl you liked when you were in school?"

"Have you ever had a girlfriend?"

Jian Xiangdi was a little shy at first, but she quickly fought back, "You've lived for more than 20 years, and you're still single. You said you wanted to pursue Mr. An, but you don't even dare to talk to him."

The destructive power of this sentence was comparable to that of an atomic bomb explosion, and Liang Zishu was blown into powder.

Wuuuuuu… Not only is she a single mother, she is also a coward who only dares to talk big but not to take any real action.

Seeing that she was so depressed that she became autistic and silent, Jian Xiangdi was satisfied and continued to work.

……

The hustle and bustle of the day faded away, and the Sanqing Palace became a little more lonely at night. The wind blowing from the mountains was bitingly cold.

Everyone else in the Taoist temple had gone to bed, only the headmaster's room was still brightly lit.

"I say, Fourth Brother, why did you give me a wheelchair?" Taoist Xuan Yue looked at the big wheel, the corners of his mouth twitching wildly.

Qi Hou said seriously, "I am considering that you are old and it will be inconvenient for you to walk in the future. This is very suitable for you."

Taoist Xuan Yue looked at the other toilet stool, and the corners of his mouth twitched even more violently. "Third brother, what's wrong with this stool?"

Cheng Qian pulled the stool aside and introduced it to him carefully, "This is a toilet stool I made especially for you using golden nanmu wood. I thought it would be convenient for you to go to the toilet when you have difficulty walking in the future."

"Look how much Lao Si and I think about you."

Cheng Qian and Qi Hou high-fived each other confidently. They were considering practicality for him.

Taoist Xuan Yue looked at their almost identical faces with a speechless look, and pinched his brows weakly. These two were indeed twin brothers, their brain circuits were the same.

"Second Brother, I also prepared this for you!"

Yu Xiu handed over what he had prepared, which was an exquisitely packaged box.

Seeing the exquisite box, Taoist Xuan Yue became interested and thought, such a beautiful box must be a very valuable thing!
"Ding ding ding! Thick thermal underwear!"

Taoist Xuan Yue: "..."

"Second Brother, you are old and it is so cold in the mountains. You definitely need this kind of thick thermal underwear. It is made of lamb wool and is very warm."

Taoist Priest Xuan Yue looked at them and their gifts expressionlessly. They were either cotton-padded jackets or cotton-padded shoes for the elderly, as well as some health products. They were not even a little bit worse than what they had given in previous years.

Nothing of value at all.

Taoist Xuan Yue glanced around and said in a cold tone, "You all have no money?"

A few ghosts felt a little embarrassed. They looked up at the sky and down at the earth, but they just didn't like him. Finally, the eldest brother Ning Wenshan stood up and spoke.

"Second brother, everyone is thinking about you. You are different from us. You need these things when you are old."

Taoist Xuan Yue looked at him without saying anything.

"Um... Second Brother... Please help us burn some more money."

Ning Wenshan stammered, "The prices in the underworld have gone up a bit recently."

"Aren't you still running a fruit shop?" Taoist Xuan Yue asked.

He knew how profitable spiritual fruits were in the underworld.

Speaking of fruit shops, Lao Liu An Runnian couldn't help but sigh, "Yang Fan has set up a business where you can earn money by working for fruits. With inflation, fruits can't be sold at a good price now."

The others nodded vigorously. Yes, now that the price of fruit has been lowered, their quality of life has declined.

Taoist Xuan Yue chuckled, his face full of gloating.

Live it!

"It's just right that you reminded me, Second Brother. The fruit stock in the store is almost sold out. Remember to buy some for me." An Runnian said.

"..." Taoist Xuan Yue took a deep breath, "That fruit is 60 yuan per pound."

Not only does he have to spend money on them, but now even the fruit shop gets its supplies from him.

Sixty yuan per pound. If he imports hundreds or even thousands of pounds, how much money will he have to spend!
Just thinking about it, Taoist Xuan Yue felt his heart bleeding, "Go buy the goods yourselves, I don't have that much money!"

What kind of life is this? Not only does he have to support the current disciples of Sanqing Palace, but he also has to support these guys in the underworld.

"No way," An Runnian spread his hands helplessly, "If it were in the past, we could still buy goods for free."

Now that the free channel is gone, I can only rely on him.

Taoist Priest Xuan Yue: ...
