Chapter 925 Another Interpretation of Learning from Scripture
Before Sun Wukong could finish speaking, the old man rushed to say, "Oh! I understand, you two are here to find work."
Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie nodded.
The old man picked up half of the cigarette snake on the counter, ignited it with flint, took a few mouthfuls with pleasure, and said, "I posted that notice half a year ago, and I have also come to find a job, but they all left in less than two days because they couldn't stand my mercy. Can you two bear it?"
After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie intentionally or unintentionally.
Sun Wukong beat his chest and said, "Yes, hey--this cannot be said to be your mercy on us. You give us money. It is natural for us to listen to you."
Zhu Bajie also beat his chest and said, "Don't worry, you can help us. You can do whatever you say, and you will do it."
The old man exterminated the smoke snake, bent down and took out an iron box from under the counter, put the remaining part of the smoke snake in the iron box, then covered the lid, put the iron box back in the original place, and then said: "Just say it's useless, just work here first. The wages are ten taels a month, and this wages are also high in Yun Township. And I also allow you two to eat and live. Of course, you can choose not to eat and live, so I can save you two."
Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie said in unison: "Live, live, eat, eat."
Sun Wukong said excitedly: "You are a living Bodhisattva. Originally, this fat man and I wanted to find some work to fill our stomachs, but I didn't expect that the conditions you offered to us were so good and so happy. Why did you suddenly feel so warm this day?"
Zhu Bajie was so excited that he kept applauding.
The old man shook his head and said, "It's nothing. Isn't this treatment all the time in the world? I usually have no friends in my store. I'm too lonely to stay alone, and I can't find someone who can talk. Oh, by the way! What are your names?"
After hearing the old man say this, Sun Wukong suddenly felt sour in his heart and couldn't help but feel pitiful to the old man. Sun Wukong said, "If you call me Sun Wukong in the future, you will be able to do it."
Zhu Bajie also felt pity for the old man and then replied: "My name is Zhu Bajie. In the future, for your convenience, just call me fat!"
Then Sun Wukong continued, "What do we call you in the future?"
The old man coughed and replied, "Everyone in the town calls me Mr. Qin, so just call me this from now on."
Immediately afterwards, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie bowed to Mr. Qin together.
Sun Wukong said embarrassedly: "Old Qin, I wonder if you agree to it?"
Old Qin picked up the tea on the counter, took a sip and responded: "Tell me!"
Sun Wukong said politely: "We have a cousin, we come together, I want to..."
Before the mosquito could finish his speech, Mr. Qin replied frantically: "Okay, your two cousins can also move in."
After hearing this, Zhu Bajie held Mr. Qin's hand excitedly and said with tears in his face: "You are such a great person that is rare in a thousand years. I would like to thank you on behalf of my cousin."
Sun Wukong choked and took a while to say, "Old Qin, we are not people who recognize money. In the world, people say that people have to be authentic in everything they do. You take me, Zhu Bajie, and your cousin are here. We don't want your money. As long as you take care of our food and accommodation, we can do whatever we have."
Mr. Qin refused: "Why don't you want money? Each of you three is fifteen taels of silver every month, including food and accommodation. Don't tell me what is authentic or not. You are all young, and the road ahead is still long, and income is the foundation."
When Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie heard what Mr. Qin said, their hearts warmed up. They didn't say anything else, they were just standing there excitedly.
Mr. Qin asked Sun Wukong, "Where are your two cousins?"
"I don't know where to build a house," Sun Wukong replied.
"Do your two cousins do construction?" asked Mr. Qin.
"No! That's the case. We just came to Yunxiang today. We were not familiar with the place and had no money in our pockets. The three of us decided to do odd jobs and earn some money to fill our stomachs. My cousin went to find a place to build a house because we found that there was no cave in Yunxiang, and we were afraid that there would be no place to live at night."
Sun Wukong said, with endless bitterness on his face.
Mr. Qin nodded after hearing this.
Zhu Bajie pulled the corner of Sun Wukong's clothes and whispered: "Bajie, the situation has changed now. Should we go find our cousin and tell him?"
Sun Wukong nodded and replied in a low voice: "I have to go to my cousin and ask me not to build a house."
When Mr. Qin heard their conversation, he said, "Go and find your cousin. This Yun Township is not very large and should be found soon."
Sun Wukong nodded and replied, "Old Qin, then we will go first and come back to work later."
Old Qin waved his hand and signaled them to go and go back soon.
After leaving the shop, Zhu Bajie said to Sun Wukong: "Bajie, why do you think we are so happy? It's really a village with dark flowers and flowers. I've found a good man from Boss Qin!"
"I feel that our fate is about to start to turn. Maybe we can really be a good person. When we return to the village, the scene will definitely be... Oh, I'm so embarrassed that I'm so embarrassed to think about it. It must be a sensation!" Sun Wukong said excitedly.
"I'm embarrassed to think about it." Zhu Bajie sneered.
Sun Wukong couldn't help but say, "Then, Zhu Bajie and I smiled nervously, attracting all kinds of different degrees of attention from passers-by from time to time. Of course, contemptuous eyes accounted for the majority. Zhu Bajie and I were traveling through the crowd, just wanting to find our cousin immediately and tell him the exciting and exciting good news."
Sun Wukong paused and said, "Besides, after he separated from me and Zhu Bajie, he came to a relatively remote alley in the town. This alley is wrapped by two walls that look old on the side. It is reasoned to reason with the degree of damage to the wall, which shows that it has been baptized for many years."'

A lightning bolt roared and burst into the sky, scaring Sun Wukong, who was talking, jumped loudly.
When Sun Wukong was less afraid, he continued to explain calmly: "There are some dilapidated wooden boards piled up on the deep side of the alley. My cousin chose some that are still usable, and then on two walls that are not too dilapidated. My cousin thought of using such materials to build a house. The design concept is this: use the two walls as the load-bearing walls of the house, and adjust the height of the roof so that people can raise their heads in the house. Then, on this basis, the bricks on the wall are removed to facilitate the fixing of the wooden boards. Anyway, the basic design pattern is the letter "h".
Puchi-
Sun Wukong farted and continued, "Build the roof and fix the wooden boards up and down on the back of the h to serve as the back wall of the house. There are a few fixed boards on the front side, because there is a door to enter and exit. My cousin calculated that it was almost a two-bedroom apartment, with north and south, and good lighting conditions. As long as there is light, the living environment must be excellent, and it is not disturbed when sleeping, and it is a high-end residential house."
Sun Wukong paused for a moment, and then explained: "My cousin also named the house after it is completed, called "very good new building". What my cousin thought was that when there is conditions, he would take another floor on it until the bottom of the two walls, and there was no way to build it up again, so the name of the house may be changed in the future, which is very likely to be called "Ladder New Building". After my cousin had conceived it, he was preparing for construction."
