Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

To their surprise, Zhou Bingkun was not only not fired, but also settled down at the publishing house.

Now Zhou Bingkun actually said he had received his salary and was treating the two of them to drinks, which surprised and delighted them.

Zhou Bingkun said with a smile, "I received 26 yuan, plus a few grain coupons and meat coupons."

Sun Ganchao's eyes widened immediately: "26 yuan? Are the salaries at the publishing house that high? Guoqing and I only took two days off a month and we only got 18 yuan. You only took four or five days off a month and you still got 26 yuan. The difference is too big!"

Xiao Guoqing nodded repeatedly, saying that without comparison, there would be no harm.

Although they are childhood friends and have a deep brotherly bond, comparisons are everywhere.

They were both exhausted and only earned so little, while Zhou Bingkun did easy work but earned more than them. Of course, they felt resentful.

Zhou Bingkun immediately saw through his two childhood friends' thoughts: "Different jobs, different salaries!"

"You only see the thief eating meat, but you don't see the thief getting beaten! We editors also have tasks. We read and write articles every day, and our hair is falling out in clumps."

“You guys are different. You don’t have any pressure at all. You get the same amount of money no matter how much you do.”

Xiao Guoqing was rather simple-minded. After listening to Zhou Bingkun's words, he sighed and said, "Kun'er is right. If I had to read and write articles, I'd rather be killed. I still prefer doing this kind of work."

"Bingkun, you've earned so much salary, you should at least treat us to something nice today, right?" Sun Ganchao said to Zhou Bingkun with a smile.

Zhou Bingkun patted his chest and assured him, "Of course! The meat and wine are all prepared, and my mother is probably cooking them at home right now, just waiting for us to get back."

Zhou Bingkun, who had watched the video, also knew that among the six gentlemen, only Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao were truly loyal to him.

The other three were a bit unethical.

Therefore, Zhou Bingkun naturally treated these two people with sincerity.

Just as the three were about to leave, a man rode up on a bicycle and shouted at them, "Guoqing, catch up! Hey, Bingkun, what are you doing here?"

"Brother Qiangzi." Sun Ganchao called out when he saw the person who came.

Xiao Guoqing remained silent.

Zhou Bingkun quickly recognized the person.

Tu Zhiqiang is the murderer who was shot at the beginning of the future video.

He is also Zheng Juan's boyfriend in the future video, and the culprit who caused Zheng Juan's tragic fate later on.

However, Zheng Juan now has her heart set on him, so Tu Zhiqiang naturally has no chance.

Of course, Zhou Bingkun didn't have a good impression of Tu Zhiqiang either.

If murder weren't illegal now, Zhou Bingkun would have put him in a sack and thrown him into the Bohai River.

Tu Zhiqiang was also a member of the Guangzi branch, and he knew all three of them, including Zhou Bingkun.

However, Tu Zhiqiang was a few years older than them and not very good at studying, so they didn't play together.

"Bingkun, I heard from Guoqing and Ganchao that you've started working at the publishing house. That's great, our light-paper industry has produced a talented person." Tu Zhiqiang said to Zhou Bingkun with a smile.

Zhou Bingkun waved his hand: "I'm nothing special. Brother Qiangzi, Guoqing and Ganchao are my good brothers. I'll have to trouble you to take care of them in the future."

Since Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao would be working at the lumber mill alongside Tu Zhiqiang, Zhou Bingkun had no intention of offending Tu Zhiqiang or causing trouble for his two childhood friends.

"Of course! We all came from the same place, so we'll definitely look out for each other!" Jian Zhoubingkun said sweetly, and Tu Zhiqiang patted his chest to assure him, "Are you going back too? Shall we go together?"

Before Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao could speak, Zhou Bingkun said, "I have something to discuss with Guoqing and the others. Brother Qiangzi, you should go back first."

Tu Zhiqiang didn't mind and waved to them, "Then I'll be going now."

With Tu Zhiqiang gone, Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao both relaxed.

Sun Ganchao said to Zhou Bingkun, "Kun'er, try to have less contact with him in the future. I've heard many people say that he's a bad influence and hangs out with a bunch of hooligans. Don't let him drag you down with him."

“Gan Chao is right. I’ve also heard people say that he might be engaging in speculation and profiteering, but I don’t know if it’s true,” Xiao Guoqing added from the side.

Zhou Bingkun nodded: "I know! You all need to be careful too, don't get involved with him!"

"Don't worry, we know what we're doing!" Sun Ganchao said with a smile.

Zhou Bingkun waved at the two of them: "Let's go home! We're not leaving until we're drunk tonight!"

When the three of them arrived home, Li Suhua had already set the table and the meat was almost cooked.

The meal was not lavish; the meat was simply steamed with cabbage, accompanied by some steamed buns, two side dishes, and a plate of pickled vegetables.

After washing their hands, the three of them sat down at the table and started eating.

In the end, Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao were both drunk by Zhou Bingkun.

Previously, Zhou Bingkun's alcohol tolerance was not as good as Xiao Guoqing's and Sun Ganchao's, but since he started practicing kung fu, his alcohol tolerance has increased.

Seeing his two childhood friends passed out from drinking, Zhou Bingkun stepped in and took them home.

Meanwhile, in Yamashiro.

Zhou Zhigang sat under the tent drinking water.

Although he had only been here a short time, as an eighth-grade craftsman, he had already gained recognition from everyone thanks to his outstanding skills.

Chapter 65, The Grand Ritual of Luo Tian, ​​the King of Wudang! (Seeking first-day subscriptions upon release!)

A young man quickly entered the tent: "Master Zhou, there's a letter for you. I just received it."

"Where did the letter come from?" Zhou Zhigang stood up and asked.

"Jichun City, Liaoning Province!" the young man said, handing Zhou Zhigang an envelope. "Master Zhou, here you go."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhigang quickly took the letter.

This is the second letter he has received from his hometown since arriving in the mountain city.

He was furious after receiving the last letter.

Because his most beloved daughter secretly ran away to Guizhou Province without her family's knowledge.

Go find a man who is more than ten years older than her.

He was so angry that he declared he would never acknowledge this daughter again.

That being said, even now, the thought of his daughter still breaks his heart.

He truly missed the days at home, when his daughter was so filial and sensible.

He still can't understand what was wrong with his daughter that made her abandon her family.

After the previous nightmare, Zhou Zhigang felt uneasy upon receiving another letter from his hometown: "I hope nothing has happened at home!"

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Zhigang slowly opened the letter and began to read it carefully.

It took Zhou Zhigang a few minutes to read the entire letter.

This time is different from the last time.

After watching it last time, he was so angry that he had angina.

After reading it this time, he was delighted: "That brat Bingkun actually has this ability! He went to work at a publishing house, and as an editor no less."

My youngest son, whom I used to look down on the most, has actually found such a good job, and it's even a government-affiliated one.

This truly delighted him.

But while he was happy, he also found it somewhat unbelievable.

He knew very well what his youngest son was like.

How long has he been away from home, and his youngest son has changed so much?

He couldn't help but wonder if the publishing house's leadership had made a mistake.

Or was he deceived by his own youngest son?

As he thought about it, he felt a little uneasy.

He used to look down on his youngest son the most, always thinking that he was incompetent.

But who would have thought that the youngest son, whom they looked down on the most, would become the most capable?

He couldn't help but think of his eldest son, Zhou Bingyi.

If the eldest son hadn't gone to the Production and Construction Corps and had stayed home instead, with his intelligence and knowledge, he would definitely have been more successful than the younger son and found a better job.

Zhou Zhigang himself didn't realize that his youngest son had become successful; he was only happy for a short while.

The next thing she thought of was her eldest son.

Just as Zhou Bingkun had expected, Zhou Zhigang did not change his opinion of his youngest son just because his son had become successful.

Zhou Bingkun was unaware of his father's complex feelings after receiving the letter, and went to work after finishing breakfast as usual.

After Zhou Bingkun went to work, Li Suhua finally couldn't hold back and decided to inquire about Zheng Juan's situation.

Finding out about Zheng Juan's situation is actually quite easy.

Li Suhua casually inquired with the elderly people in Taiping Hutong and learned quite a bit of information.

Just as Zhou Bingkun said, it was a family of three, an old man and a young child.

To sum it up in one sentence, they were dirt poor.

Not only were they poor, but their family background was also not good.

Knowing about Zheng Juan's family situation, Li Suhua was even more opposed to Zheng Juan and Zhou Bingkun's relationship.

She felt that a woman from such a family background would only be a burden to Zhou Bingkun.

So for a while afterward, whenever Zhou Bingkun mentioned Zheng Juan, Li Suhua insisted that Zhou Bingkun give up the idea!

Faced with Li Suhua's resolute stance, Zhou Bingkun felt somewhat helpless.

After all, this was her own mother, and in her opinion, she was doing this for her own good.

Left with no other option, Zhou Bingkun could only ask his fellow chat group members for advice.

Zhang Chulan: "Bingkun, now that your mother's attitude is so firm, I think you should just follow Doctor Han's suggestion!"

Yan Chixia: "That's right! We'll deal with it after it's done!"

Yue Buqun: "I think, Bingkun, you could bring Zheng Juan home first, let your mother get to know her better! Maybe your mother will gradually accept Zheng Juan as she spends time with her!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "I think Master Yue's idea is pretty good! Given Zheng Juan's personality and character, your mother should be able to accept her easily!"

Zhou Bingkun: "I need to ask Zheng Juan's opinion first!"

Zhang Chulan: "Of course, if you want to take Zheng Juan back, you have to ask Zheng Juan's opinion first!"

The world under one person.

At this moment, the Celestial Master's Mansion already knew that Zhang Chulan knew the Golden Light Mantra and the Five Thunder Orthodox Method, but the old Celestial Master still held the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.

With the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony fast approaching, Liu Yanyan ran away from her family, ready to follow Zhang Chulan to witness the ceremony.

Zhang Chulan was very happy when Liu Yanyan returned.

Because Liu Yanyan is from Hunan, Zhang Chulan has been treating her to hot pot or other spicy dishes these past few days, hoping she will enjoy them.

As it turned out, Liu Yanyan did like it, but Zhang Chulan couldn't resist and ended up with enteritis.

So now Zhang Chulan is giving Zhou Bingkun advice despite the pain of enteritis.

Looking at Zhang Chulan lying on the bed, Liu Yanyan said with some heartache, "Zhang Chulan, why don't you not participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony? You're too sick right now!"

After seeing a doctor and taking medicine, Zhang Chulan has improved a lot, but his complexion is still pale.

Zhang Chulan shook his head: "No, I must participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony! Only in this way can I improve my strength and protect the people around me!"

After thinking for a moment, Liu Yanyan said, "Why don't you come back to the Liu family with me? Our Liu family is one of the top families in Xiangxi, and I am the eldest daughter of the Liu family. I can definitely protect your safety!"

Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up; he was somewhat tempted!

If he hadn't joined the chat group, he probably would have already agreed.

But now Zhang Chulan felt he no longer needed to be a kept man: "Miss, don't worry! I'll definitely recover in three days!"

Three days later, Zhang Chulan and his group of five appeared at the foot of Longhu Mountain.

Zhang Chulan had fully recovered. Looking at the crowd at the foot of Longhu Mountain, he couldn't help but exclaim, "There are so many people!!"

Xu San smiled slightly: "It's a holiday! Lots of people come to visit, and the Celestial Master's Mansion is a tourist attraction too! Alright, let's go!"

The group walked to the ticket booth.
