Chapter 74: Whose coming-of-age ceremony will you attend, fellow Taoist?



??At this time, Li's mother asked: "Son, when are you going to get married? When will you bring a girl back for me to see?"

"I'm full. I'm going to the second uncle's house to get the jade zither."

??Li Yi used the second uncle to successfully escape. After taking a walk outside, he returned to the yard and continued to lie on the bamboo chair.

??After browsing my phone for a while, I thought about what I had just done and decided to finish it before going to bed.

??Call Zhao Si.

"Hello, Brother Yi? What's up?"

"Remember Lily? She's going to have her coming-of-age ceremony tomorrow."

??Lily?

Zhao Si thought about it for a while and finally remembered who it was. She was Yi Ge's cousin, who had been a gangster for a while in junior high school, and then was dragged out of the bar by him and Li Yi, and even had a fight with several junior high school students.

??At that time, they also took money to do the job and took a few hundred yuan from his father.

"I remember it very clearly. The little girl's makeup was like a ghost. She didn't learn from the good and learned from the bad. It was obvious that she was itching for trouble. I didn't expect that she would get married in the blink of an eye."

Li Yi said: "It's not a marriage, it seems to be a marriage proposal. But with the financial resources of my uncle's family, I'm afraid it won't be possible to find a rich son-in-law, so will you come?"

"Hiss..." Zhao Si asked in a subtle tone, "Brother Yi, you don't want me to have sex with you, do you? I can't do that. I have a fiancée."

"I don't mind being your brother-in-law." Li Yi smiled, "If you two-timing, I'll help you remove one of your legs."

??Zhao Si has good conditions in all aspects. Even if he didn't join the company, he would be considered a successful young man with the strength of opening a private psychological consultation clinic. The most important thing is that he knows how to repay kindness, which is a rare character.

??It’s a pity that I already have a girlfriend. We have been dating since college and we should be getting married soon.

Zhao Si said: "Eh... I wouldn't dare to harm your sister even if I had ten guts, but I do have someone I can recommend. How about Lu Haochu? He is the second in command of Qingzhou now, 32 years old, and only a few points less handsome than me."

"Lu Haochu."

??Li Yi still had some impression of this young man. After all, he was using the skills of Shangqing Palace.

"That's fine. In the end, it all depends on Lily. It's not up to me to decide whether we'll be compatible. By the way, how's my medical license?"

"It's already been done. I'll bring it to you when the time comes."

"Okay, I'll hang up first."

After hanging up the phone, Li Yi closed his eyes and took his usual nap. He had been busy these past few days, and even he felt a little tired.

——

??Qingzhou company headquarters.

??Zhao Si hung up the phone, got up and left the office, went to the separate office of the action team leader next door, and knocked on the door a few times.

"Come in."

??Lu Haochu looked up at the person who came, then lowered his head to continue processing the pile of documents. There were three piles of documents taller than him.

??This posture startled Zhao Si, and he asked, "Old Lu, are you doing printing? Why are there so many documents?"

"It's all because of your elder brother. He has appointed a city god. Dozens of city gods are equivalent to an extra company. Do you know what that means? Most of the rules and regulations need to be revised, and there are also negotiations with the city gods."

??Lu Haochu, as always, had dark circles under his eyes and looked resentful.

??The revival of the City God is a good thing for society. At least for a long time, we no longer need to worry about things like coma. In the future, if the environment becomes suitable for the birth of ghosts, they can be handed over to the City God for management, which greatly relieves the pressure on the company.

??But in the short term, there is no benefit for Lu Haochu, only endless overtime.

??For example, how to manage the belief in City God?

??The higher-ups worked out a new policy overnight in the past few days, requiring only bottom lines such as "legal operation", "no forced or intimidated beliefs", and "no harm to society". The specific management efforts and negotiations are up to them to decide.

If it was ordinary religions and minor sects, the company would be very happy to have the right to make its own decisions. But they were facing the underworld and the city god, and they could not control them at will.

??What Lu Haochu is dealing with now is the handover issue with the City God, and making clear the jurisdiction of the company and the City God Temple. The second is the selection of ghost soldiers. Many City Gods are currently without troops, and they are in urgent need of enshrining a group of martyrs, or people who died while saving others.

??The spiritual energy revival was not possible before, it needs the recent years.

??Currently, the most suitable candidates are mostly firefighters.

Zhao Si asked, "Are you free tomorrow? Go and attend my friend's cousin's coming-of-age ceremony."

"I don't have the time." Lu Haochu rolled his eyes. "I'm busy enough with all this stuff. How can I have the time to go to a coming-of-age ceremony with you? That thing is so boring. It's just a bunch of old-timers who are publicly urging you to get married."

"Besides, it's best to find a cultivator, otherwise you'll suffer in the future. For example, a foundation-building cultivator won't age before the age of 100 and can live to 200, while a mortal starts to age at the age of 40."

"Yes, I'll go find someone else."

??Zhao Si turned around and left, but was stopped after taking two steps.

"Wait, which friend of yours?"

"Brother Yi."

Lu Haochu stood up suddenly and said righteously: "Zhao Si, although you and I have known each other for a short time, we are brothers who have been through thick and thin together. I must help you with this! Tomorrow... No, let's go now!"
