When I became a Jade-faced Fox

Yu'er and Ao Lan ended up parting on bad terms that day.

Senior Brother Zhu knew it the moment he saw Yu'er coming back alone that day.

"sad?"

"More or less."

Senior Brother Zhu didn't say anything, just looked at Yu'er.

"Okay, I admit it's a lot. I don't have many friends to begin with. I've been busy these years, with only these people coming and going around me. It's normal for me to be sad when this happens all of a sudden."

Yu'er explained while touching Lianqing on her wrist.

"Ao Lan will figure it out."

"I know."

"Then don't be depressed and go do what you should do."

"Oh." Yu'er nodded.

The temple was renovated a few days ago, and Ao Lan's behavior added some popularity to the temple.

When I go out and squat, I can hear a lot of people talking.

That is a temple of the land god, why is it a statue of a goddess?

How could the land god be a female fairy? You must have seen it wrong.

It is a female fairy. If you don’t believe me, go and see for yourself.

After hearing this, Yu'er felt that the temple needed a priest - that is, a spokesperson. Obviously, there were only two candidates, either Yan Niang or her cousin - Hong Rui.

"You two, what do you think about this?"

The two people thought about it and couldn't make a decision, as each had its pros and cons.

Yan Niang and Yu Er are of the same sex, which makes sense, but if she were a temple priest, she would not be able to receive incense and worship. Yan Niang's qualifications are limited, and she will eventually have to take the path of becoming a god through incense and worship.

Hong Rui, who doesn't need incense, interacts with all kinds of people, which helps him gain experience. But he is a man, and the spokesperson of the goddess is a man, which makes Yu'er a little worried. The most important thing is that he won't stay for long. Even if he takes over the position of temple keeper, he still needs to find someone else.

"Can you consider my former position as temple priest?" Wen Wen watched the hesitation among the people.

"His family is very nice. I was able to survive in the first place thanks to their help."

This was like putting a third way in front of Yu'er, and it sounded very reliable. An experienced person! No wonder in the previous life, no matter what job, he was willing to find someone with experience.

"Then where can we find them? It was so chaotic before, can they come back?"

The person is good, but the prerequisite is to find him!

"If nothing unexpected happens, they will come to my house in two days. I received their incense offerings a few days ago. In recent days, many people have been talking about the land god being a female fairy. They will definitely come to check it out."

"That's great. It's really a great pleasure to have it delivered to your door automatically."

"Also, adults don't have to care too much about gender. You are the superior, you only need to know whether this person or this thing is useful, nothing else matters."

"Mr. Wen has great wisdom. I am grateful for your teaching." Yu'er was very inspired. As expected, her thinking was still subject to some limitations. It seems that she still needs to listen more. Only by listening more can she make progress.

"And what's the surname of Zhu in that temple? Let him take care of my cousin! Yan Niang should follow me more."

"Yes, that family's surname is Zhu."

Yu Er nodded and signaled Hong Rui with her eyes. She thought this surname was quite interesting. The temple keeper's surname was Zhu. She didn't know if there was anyone with the surname Miao in the Hundred Family Surnames.

"Mr. Wen, have you finished the previous summary? It doesn't need to be complete, just a rough outline will be fine."

"Besides this Chang'an city, there are 23 towns and villages in your jurisdiction. However, because these areas were all owned by officials, there are not many villages under the towns and villages. Most of them have five or six villages, with of them. The remaining five have eight villages, two have nine, and the remaining one has twelve villages, for a total of villages."

Yu Er gasped, "So many? There are so many land gods!"

Yu'er thought to herself, originally she didn't need any incense, and she had two golden-armored men under her. If she received any incense, she would give 20% to Mr. Wen, 15% to Yan Niang, and 15% to the land gods below (after all, they kept the incense from their own fiefdoms for themselves), and she would keep 50% for herself in case of emergency. It seems that 15% is not enough! She has to give another 15%.

"Your Excellency has misunderstood. There are not so many. If we count each village, there would be 160 land gods. I'm afraid they would be judging cases every day." Wen Wen waved his hands repeatedly.

"In order to make management easier, I let them manage two to four villages, with the land areas as equal as possible, which means about 3 people. And because most of the villages they controlled managed to survive during the more than ten years of chaos by relying on the tributes from one village and the tributes from another."

"Mr. Wen is indeed far-sighted!" Yu'er quickly gave him a thumbs up and praised him, which saved a lot of trouble.

Wen Wen responded a little embarrassedly. He actually didn't think too much about it at the time. He mainly felt that with more villages, the people below would receive more incense offerings, and he could let them offer more tributes. This way, he would have money to buy books and paintings.

It was a pleasant surprise that such an effect came about.

"Then just follow the original rules. Three days later, let them all come to Chang'an and we will meet each other." Yu'er felt that she had to recognize people.

"My Lord, they are all very weak."

"It's okay, Yan Niang, prepare some more incense and put a few more large incense burners that day to ensure they can have enough to eat when they come."

"What about the others, Mr. Wen?"

"Sir, Chang'an is the imperial capital, and the dragon energy is strong. Ordinary monsters dare not approach, and the big monsters are not restrained, so...but I know that there is a female fairy in the nearby Huashan Mountain, known as the Three Holy Mothers of Huashan, who is quite loved by the people."

"The Third Holy Mother? But her surname is Yang and her name is Chan?" Yu'er immediately remembered that Ao Lan got angry when he mentioned her aunt and her husband, and she returned to the West Sea sadly.

"Yes, she is the most famous goddess in the area. Her brother is the Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun of Guanjiangkou - Yang Jian, who is also very famous."

"I think he's not only famous, but he might also be the only one." Yu'er thought about it. After all, if there were playmates, Liu Yanchang might not be there.

"No, if you count it, there are two of us."

"Sir, why do I feel like you are coaxing your own child to go out and play?"

As soon as Yu'er said this, everyone around her laughed.

"When everything is on the right track, you all will be working, and I will go out to play. While you are busy, I will lie on a chair, drink tea and eat snacks, making you envious." Yu'er put her hands on her hips and snorted twice.

As a result, they laughed even louder, and Yu'er was so angry that she turned into a puffer fish, no, a round-faced fox, which, come to think of it, probably looked quite like a Tibetan fox.

"Alright, alright, go do what you need to do."

Yu'er was unhappy and started to chase people away. But as soon as she chased them away, she became bored again and had nothing to do!

Things cannot stand being talked about. After a few days of talking about it, Yu'er went out and was fed a big bite of melon.
