Skilled in managing a house

After the audit was over, Zhang Yu had no intention of winning people's hearts, because if he wanted to establish his prestige, it was not just about giving benefits. He needed both carrots and sticks. Therefore, he strictly complied with the requirements and directly returned some temple properties that were hidden by Taoist temples to the Taoist Association. Those who refused to accept it, Zhang Yu simply threatened to kick them out of the Taoist Association. Since the annual Huashan Forum has an appearance fee of 10 million, these Taoist temples do not want to be kicked out, so they can only accept the punishment obediently.

In addition, Zhang Yu also fined those who falsely reported their accounts. For a time, all the Taoist temples in Zhenhai were in a state of chaos and complained.

White Eyebrow Palace.

In Master Yuan's house, Master Yuan is sitting at the table drinking tea. In front of the table, sits the eldest disciple Shao Wenjie.

Today, Shao Wenjie made a special trip to report to Yuan Zhenren.

"Master, Master Zhang is really ruthless. He actually brought the auditors from the Wudang Group to check the accounts, and found out all the concealed temple properties and false reports of income. This made every Taoist sect in Zhenhai curse. , even our Baimei Palace was brought along." Shao Wenjie said.

"It's something that was expected, so don't make a fuss..." Yuan Zhenren said calmly: "Ask him to do this errand, and the result will naturally be like this... Besides, we can't do this kind of thing ourselves in Baimei Palace. …”

"That's true..." Shao Wenjie nodded lightly, and then said: "But if we continue like this, the disciple always feels that it will be detrimental to our Baimei Palace... especially this Huashan discussion about Taoism and seizing the president, what a joke... They are all disciples within three years of age. Fortunately, the person named Lu can think of it. By next year, Xiao Ning will be over the age. Wouldn’t it be that the position of Zhenhai Taoist Church’s president in the future will not be in the Taoist temple..."

"Anyone can see the strength of Zhang Yu's disciples... The man named Lu is not a fool. After this lesson, next year, I don't think he will dare to do anything wrong... The matter of Huashan Taoism, Just do it once, how could I agree to do it every year..." Yuan Zhenren said calmly.

"Haven't we already signed the documents? Besides...it's probably impossible to abolish this year's 10 million appearance fee..." Shao Wenjie said.

"It doesn't matter if you sign the document. If I say abolish it, it will be abolished! What these guys really care about is money. As for talking about the truth, it's just an excuse. Aren't all the temple properties now integrated? Let Zhang first Yu is doing it. When the Taoist conference next year, the money will still be given, and there will be no need to discuss Taoism. You will still vote for the president. As long as there is money, who will mention the discussion of Taoism again... Especially the person named Lu, in After seeing the strength of Wudang Taoist Temple, he will definitely turn around and support us, because he knows that he has no chance to compete for this president again. He can honestly vote for the election and become the vice president. Otherwise, , just continue to be his director..." When Yuan Zhenren said these words, his face was full of confidence and arrogance.

"Master, you are so smart, let Master Zhang do it first. Anyway, that family's 10 million will come from the temple property. This is the case anyway, there is really no need to talk about Tao..." Shao Wenjie said immediately to please.

Yuan Zhenren picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. In her opinion, everything was under control.

"Dangdangdang..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Yuan Zhenren said calmly.

The door opened, and the second disciple Wang Wenqian and Shangguan Ning walked in first. Behind them, there were two Taoist priests wearing apricot yellow robes. The two Taoist priests were a man and a woman, both young. Yes, they were the two dark horses who made a blockbuster speech at Haihua Mountain that day - brother and sister Ren Jie and Ren Ting.

"Disciple, see Master." "Disciple, see Master." ...Wang Wenqian and Shangguan Ning bowed and said as soon as they entered the door.

Then, Wang Wenqian said again: "Master, the person you want to see has arrived."

Ren Jie and Ren Ting, who were following Wang Wenqian, bowed and saluted, "Disciple pays homage to Master Yuan. I don't know what the master's instructions were when he asked us to come here."...

"No courtesy..." Yuan Zhenren said kindly.

"Thank you, Master." "Thank you, Master." Ren Jie and Ren Ting straightened up.

"I have asked you two to come here this time because of one thing. When we were discussing Taoism in Haihua Mountain, I saw that your brother and sister are very talented. I have already accepted Xiao Ning's disciples, and I don't want to accept them anymore. Disciple. However, you two are the pearls of our Taoist sect. If you stay in Dongji Palace, your craftsmanship may be limited and it will be difficult to become a great thing... Therefore, I have decided to accept you two as closed disciples, and they are also my last disciples... ...I wonder what you two think..." Yuan Zhenren said gently.

"Thank you, Master!" After hearing what Yuan Zhenren said, Ren Jie immediately fell to his knees.

"Thank you Master for your favor!" When Ren Ting saw her brother kneeling, she immediately knelt down as well.

"As long as you two are willing... In this case, we will go to the main hall to perform the apprenticeship ceremony!" Yuan Zhenren said seriously.

Even though Ren Jie and Ren Ting both have masters, that's how Taoism works, and they can pay their respects to their masters.

Moreover, the scale of Dongji Palace is limited after all, and it is incomparable to Baimei Palace. At the beginning, Zhang Yu worshiped Jia Zhenren as his master. Although he also performed the apprenticeship ceremony, Jia Zhenren's identity was incomparable with Yuan Zhenren's. Therefore, the scene of this apprenticeship ceremony was much bigger than when Zhang Yu paid homage to his master.

Above the main hall, there were hundreds of people standing up and down in Baimei Palace, and Shangguan Ning was naturally among them. Seeing Master Yuan accept another disciple, Shangguan Ning felt a little uncomfortable. However, she did not show it. After all, Master Yuan had always been very good to her. Yuan Zhenren is also a person who loves talents. When he sees talented juniors like Ren Jie and Ren Ting, he will inevitably be tempted.

An apprenticeship ceremony can take two hours of busy work. After finishing their work, Master Yuan asked Wang Wenqian to send the two of them back to Dongji Palace to pack their things, and also informed the abbot of Dongji Palace that Ren Jie and Ren Ting would move to Baimei Palace to practice.

The three of them returned to Dongji Palace, and Wang Wenqian went directly to talk to Abbot Zhao Yang. Although Zhao Yang is the abbot of Dongji Palace, his status in the Zhenhai Taoist sect is not as good as Wang Wenqian's. After all, he was Yuan Zhenren's second disciple, so he had his back against a big tree to enjoy the shade. Zhao Yang only knew that Wang Wenqian took two of his apprentices away today. He didn't know what they were doing. Only now did he realize that his two apprentices were taken in by Yuan Zhenren.

After all, Dongji Palace is a small temple, and visiting a master is nothing new. However, Master Yuan accepted disciples without notifying him in advance, which was a bit disrespectful. But even if I'm a little dissatisfied, I don't dare to say it out loud, I can only admit it.

Ren Jie and Ren Ting went to the rear residence to pack their luggage. They first arrived at Ren Jie's residence. After closing the door, Ren Ting looked at Ren Jie with a joyful smile on her face, "Brother, that Mr. Zhen is awesome It’s really amazing. He said it could change the fate of both of us, but it really has. Master Yuan of the White Eyebrow Palace can actually take the initiative to accept the two of us as disciples..."
