Chapter 508 New Ceremony

For more than a month afterwards, Xia Zhizhi and Aju were busy.

Last year, the factory in Kowloon Tong was completed and ready for use, becoming the second factory of Hongxia Electronics.

Although we have recruited management personnel, in the early stages, we have to occasionally go to the production and recruitment department to take a look, so we cannot be the full-time manager.

As the factory expanded, production volume also increased. Xia Zhizhi didn't want to hang out with foreign businessmen, so she was in charge of production management, while Aju was in charge of external affairs.

In addition to company matters, Ah Ju also has to occasionally make guest appearances at the church, and his official duties are quite busy.

In addition to semiconductors, it is also good to produce other electrical appliances such as TV fans for export these days. As long as the products can be made, there is no pressure on sales.

But that thing was too big. Xia Zhizhi felt that the radio was profitable enough and she could make money in this industry for a few more years before considering other things.

After finally getting the new factory up and running, the leather goods factory was unable to supply enough recorder bags and tapes to two factories, so we had to expand our staff.

After finishing the leather factory, Xia Zhizhi bought a piece of land and a hill in Jintian. Coincidentally, the land was at the foot of the hill and there was a small stream on the hill.

The scenery was very beautiful and the price was a little expensive, but Xia Zhizhi accepted it.

After buying the land, she had to find a construction company to build a road. She wanted to build a villa on the mountain, so she had to build the road herself.

But there is no rush, she can take her time, after all, she built this for her own fun and has no plans to run it outside.

There are some fruit trees on the mountain, and Xia Zhizhi asked someone to plant a few more. She also asked someone to plant some common vegetables and fruits on the two plots of land at the foot of the mountain, which would be convenient if she wanted to turn it into a farm in the future.

After all the busy work, it was time for the quarterly Zhizhi Church initiation ceremony.

Xia Zhizhi arrived at the church's outlying island ahead of time.

After not coming for several months, the church members did not seem to slack off.

Apart from other things, the hall itself has changed so much that you can no longer tell it was a banquet hall. It now looks exactly like a church.

The base of her statue was also raised to two meters and inlaid with various gems.

The statue was not left behind either. Not only did it wear a crown on its head and a necklace around its neck, but its winding and twisted tentacles also held various magical instruments.

There were scepters, hammers, forks, and all kinds of other things.

It is said that Keith Kadiwenxu drew the blueprints of the weapons used by the imaginary God Zhizhi based on Ah Ju's narration of the battle between the God Zhizhi and other old gods, and then raised funds from church members to create it.

In addition, Keith Cardiwen took great pains to expand on the simple story narrated by Aju, and published the second volume of Zhishenlu.

Xia Zhizhi stayed up late to watch the series and felt that this person was suitable for writing novels.

There has been no initiation ceremony for four months, and this group of believers has more than a hundred people.

This group of people were wearing black robes. Speaking of these black robes, yes, this is their club uniform.

After research by the top leaders of the Zhishen Church, the reserve members wore pure black, the first-level members wore black robes with white sleeves, the second-level members wore white sleeves and collars, the third-level members wore black and gold, the fourth-level members wore white, and the fifth-level members wore white and gold.

In addition, very formal prayers and prayer ceremonies have also emerged.

People have a strong tendency to follow the crowd. Rich people are also human beings in essence, and in this respect they are not much better than ordinary people.

Those who can walk into the church have all been brainwashed. No matter what their original intention of joining the church was, they have complete faith in the Zhizhi God.

Everyone followed the governor and began to kneel and pray while assuming various postures and gestures.

"Great and merciful God, supreme in the world, brave and good at fighting... I will omit a thousand words of praise for the God of Zhi, I am your most devout believer, and I beg you to lower your compassionate gaze and dedicate my spirit, body, and everything I have to you..."

The doors and windows of the church were closed, and the thick curtains were drawn to block out the light from outside. Only candles were lit on the candlesticks on the two walls.

The flickering candlelight could not penetrate the dark robes of the group of people.

To an uninformed person, this solemn and dignified scene would seem mysterious and a little scary.

I finally finished reading the long prayer.

Everyone knelt on the ground with their heads down, and the scene became quiet.

The leader, Ah Ju, suddenly sang a tune that even Xia Zhizhi couldn't understand, and then shouted, "Please have mercy on me, God Zhi, and allow lowly humans to follow in your footsteps!"

After Ah Ju finished speaking, the others repeated it.

Xia Zhizhi was shocked and thought they were weird.

Xia Zhizhi used her mental power to extinguish all the candles, and then lit the light bulb inside the statue.

After the sudden darkness, the statue emitted a soft and bright light in the darkness.

Some of the newcomers exclaimed quietly: "Miracle!"

The light gradually dimmed, and the more than 100 gift boxes piled up like a mountain in front of the statue disappeared under the gaze of everyone.

This caused a lot of exclamations.

Aju transformed into Emily Helen and said to Keith Cardiwenxu in a distant and ethereal voice: "The Zhi God has sensed your piety. Perhaps, after you die, your soul can follow and serve the gods."

Keith Cardivin was flattered. He was originally a fanatical believer, and after being praised like this, he could no longer restrain himself from following the footsteps of God.

He pulled out his gun, pointed it at his head, swallowed his saliva, and shouted, "God of Zhi is forever!"

After saying this, he planned to serve the gods immediately.

Ah Ju gently knocked his pistol away and said calmly: "People who commit suicide will be rejected by the gods. Your soul has not been tempered enough at this moment and cannot reach the standard of serving the gods."

Keith Kadiwenxu immediately gave up his idea of ​​being one step ahead and sincerely admitted his fault: "I am guilty, please forgive me, God."

Ah Ju turned his back and ignored him.

Instead, the Governor stepped forward and continued to preside over the initiation ceremony.

They took out the water that had been offered in front of the statue, dipped their fingers in it, and pressed it on the forehead of each new member.

Then each newbie will receive two copies of Zhishenlu, and they will officially join this big family.

Most of the members of Zhishen Cult are currently businessmen, because only businessmen who travel around are more likely to be invited to Hong Kong by their friends and relatives and then brainwashed.

Of course, nothing is absolute. There are also a small number of people who are not businessmen but come here specially out of trust in the people who were invited.

After all, there are no pyramid schemes these days. If you write to your close relatives or friends and ask them to come over, they will basically come as long as they can spare some time.
