I am doing meritorious deeds in Liaozhai

"A city where humans, demons, and ghosts receive equal education and trade equally..."

County Magistrate Su did not look down upon Song Yushan's seemingly unreasonable and unrealistic question. Instead, he thought about it seriously:

"What kind of rules are you talking about? How far can they be implemented?"

"Any rules will do!" Song Yushan said.

County Magistrate Su frowned:

"That's simple. You only need to do one thing to resolve most conflicts."

"What's the matter?" Song Yushan asked.

"Difference!" said the old county magistrate Su:

“I think the most important cause of conflict is differences.

Conflicts may arise between people due to differences in ideas, abilities, status, property, etc.

The difference between humans, demons and ghosts is even greater.

If the city you are talking about can solve the problem of differences between humans, demons, and ghosts, then all conflicts caused by race will cease to exist in your city.

After racial conflicts are resolved, for other conflicts, just refer to the law. "

Song Yushan thought about the words of the old county magistrate Su and felt enlightened.

I have to say that it is very reasonable and can be regarded as solving the problem from the root.

And, she might actually have the means to do it.

She had thought about the differences between humans, demons, and ghosts before, but she had not thought of directly addressing this issue.

In fact, if she wanted to, she could make the people, demons, ghosts, and even monks who enter her cave look like mortals.

Later, she asked Mr. County Magistrate Su some detailed questions.

The old county magistrate Su was very wise. Although he could not enlighten her every time, he could always provide her with some new ideas.

Now, Song Yushan has also settled the matter with the old county magistrate Su Yang about the branch of Yinshi Bookstore in Suyang County.

"So that's it, a bookstore in the underworld? The underworld is desolate. It's a good idea to enrich the lives of ghosts with books. This is a great thing!"

County Magistrate Su praised it.

"In the future, I ask you to take more care of the Yinshi Bookstore in Suyang County! Of course, if an employee of the bookstore commits something, you don't have to be merciful, just deal with it fairly!" Song Yushan said.

She also learned about the binding laws on ghosts in Suyang County, and they were not excessive regulations.

Basically, it requires ghosts not to get too close to mortals when traveling at night, so as not to harm people with their yin energy.

"It's easy to talk!" Old County Magistrate Su agreed. As long as he doesn't want to be partial, everything else is easy to talk about.

He was quite interested in the books in Yinshi Bookstore, so he asked Song Yushan some details.

Song Yushan brought him some past issues of the underworld newspapers, and the two talked for a long time about the contents of these newspapers.

Later, the conversation lasted until Xu Shi. Song Yushan gained a lot and was very happy.

County Magistrate Su was also very satisfied. He rarely met monks who cared about people's livelihood as much as he did.

Jin Da had prepared dinner and when he came to call them, Song Yushan still had some regrets.

But County Magistrate Su kept looking towards the kitchen. Song Yushan had noticed it a long time ago, so he stopped talking:

"Today, Magistrate Lao, you can talk to me about these nonsensical matters.

I heard that you are very knowledgeable about food. Why don't we move to another cabin to have dinner? These are my Uncle Jin's specialties! "

"Then I'm not welcome!" Last night, County Magistrate Su, smelling the fragrance on the roof, tried a case. After the case was over, he went back and had a late-night snack, but he still felt uncomfortable.

So this afternoon, he almost couldn't wait to come.

It’s because of the one who stutters!

He smelled it just now, the same smell as yesterday!

When we got to the cabin on the other side, the meal was already laid out.

Song Yushan, County Magistrate Su and Uncle Jin all took their seats. The conversation turned to lighter fare.

Song Yushan is not very good at cooking, but she can eat. The memory of her previous life has taught her to have her own unique insights into food.

Jinda knows how to eat and cook.

With just these dishes on the table, I could chat with County Magistrate Su for several hours.

The old county magistrate Su really felt a little happy and missed Shu.

If there wasn't a government official sitting next to him in a small boat to report the news, he would still be reluctant to leave, but in the end, official duties are more important:

"Thank you both for your hospitality today, I will take the first step!"

After the old county magistrate Su left, a ghost appeared on Song Yushan's boat.

"Shopkeeper! Jiang Lu hanged himself!" said the blind scholar.

"It's only been one day, but he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to die?" Song Yushan asked in surprise: "Are you sure he committed suicide?"

The old county magistrate Su was afraid that he left in a hurry just because of this matter!

"He committed suicide." The blind scholar said: "All his properties were sealed last night. At that time, he was living on the street. He was hungry all day. He hanged himself at the door of his house at night, and his soul appeared."

"How is his longevity?" Song Yushan asked.

"It should be about three hundred years." The blind scholar said.

Song Yushan nodded: "It seems that this person is not a very evil person."

Ordinary mortals, with no merits or demerits, have a lifespan of about five hundred years after death.

If you have done some good deeds during your lifetime, your lifespan after death will be around 500 to 900 years.

If there are some small evils during life, the life span will be less than 500 years.

For truly evil people, like Pang Yulong from Linjiang County, his life expectancy after death is calculated by heaven, and he may even die on the spot.

"After Jiang Lu died, didn't Zhang Yiniang cause trouble for him?" Song Yushan asked.

The blind scholar shook his head: "After Zhang Yiniang received the compensation, she came to our bookstore to exchange the money for ghost coins. She bought a large stack of story books and went back to read them. She never came out again. She probably didn't know about Jiang Lu's death. ”

"She changed the money into ghost coins? Didn't she find a lame Taoist?" Song Yushan said in surprise.

"No. When our bookstore was promoting it before, she was very interested in dialogue books.

All the money we got this time was exchanged for ghost coins with us.

Part of it was used to buy a boutique house in a paper shop, and part of it was used to buy story books.

He also said that he had a new book. If he sent a letter to her house, she would buy it.

She bought one of each of the storybooks shipped from the Suyang County branch.

The collection of books in her house now is probably comparable to that of Suyang Branch. "

Song Yushan: "..."

Is this because he took revenge and resolved his grievances, and then became obsessed with the storybook?

I never expected that my bookstore would become the biggest winner in this case and make such a huge sum of money.

If the lame Taoist knew that he had been intercepted, would he find trouble in the bookstore?

Fortunately, I saw that day that his Heavenly Eye Technique was only at the entry level and he could not go to the underworld.

"Tell the manager of Suyang Branch that Zhang Yiniang likes reading storybooks so much. In a few years, we can consider developing her as a writer for miscellaneous newspapers."

The more I read, the more I can write some later.

The manuscripts in the bookstore are never enough.
