I'm chasing the sea in the underworld

Chapter 4

After Niutou walked away unsteadily, Jiang Jun pulled Granny Meng's sleeve and said in a low voice, "Are all the people in your underworld so fierce?"

Granny Meng was taken aback for a moment, then lightly patted Jiang Jun's arm, and said with a smile: "These ghosts are evil ghosts from the [-]th floor of hell, they should have been deep-fried in a frying pan, and eaten by Niutou. It doesn't matter."

Jiang Jun: "..."

They walked for a while, and finally came to an antique hall, entered through the side door of the hall, counted a few rooms to the right, and walked past to see a sign for a utility room.

Granny Meng took the key and opened the door to go in. After a while, she came out holding a large wooden box.

Jiang Jun hurriedly stepped forward to help Granny Meng carry the box. As soon as he caught it, he felt a little hard. The box was very heavy: "Sister Meng, what's in it?"

"The things in this box are all things you need for work. Come and see if there is enough for you. Tell Sister Meng if it is not enough. Let me see if I can make it up for you." Granny Meng took out a handkerchief from her cuff and put it aside. Wiping sweat, he said.

The original red paint on the box has faded. Jiang Jun gently blew the dust on the surface. After opening it carefully, he found a set of clothes on the top. The style is a bit like Ming Dynasty, with a modern feeling .

The neckline and cuffs of the light blue quicksand robe are embroidered with silver silk and edged with flowing cloud patterns, just like riding the wind and waves on the blue sea. The sleeves flutter, which is particularly elegant and elegant.

As soon as her fingers touched the clothes, the clothes were automatically put on her body, and even her hairstyle became a combed bun, hidden in the smoky blue bamboo hat, her eyes and eyebrows carried the spirit of beauty after being moistened by mountains and rivers, The eye waves flowed inadvertently, adding a touch of unconscious style.

Granny Meng's eyes lit up, she clapped her hands and praised, "It's so beautiful."

Po Meng has seen many beauties, such as Jiang Jun who is flawless in white jade, so beautiful that she has no sharp attack power, but also makes people want to get close and feel comfortable, so she can be called unique.

Jiang Jun blushed slightly, lowered the bamboo hat on his head, raised his hand and coughed softly: "Didn't the boatman wear a coir raincoat before? How can I wear this kind of clothes?"

Granny Meng came back to her senses, and said with a smile, "The boatman is a temporary worker in the underworld, and you are a working staff with the establishment of the underworld. Of course, you have different work clothes."

Jiang Jun: ...

Are regular workers and temporary workers in the prefecture still treated differently?

"There are some other things under the box, you can check it first and see if it can be used?"

Jiang Jun looked down, and there were a pair of fishing rods, a rusty hook, and an old fishing net in the box. She pulled it out with her hands and found that the fishing net was very flexible and as thin as a cicada's wing. It seems extremely rare.

Jiang Jun exclaimed, "What kind of material is this?"

Meng Po said softly: "The material is the same as the clothes on your body. They are all woven by sharks. They will not get wet in the water, and all evils will not invade them. The fishhooks are also forged from the ten-thousand-year-old ice stone at the bottom of Wangchuan. You fish."

"This bunch of keys is the key to the room where the government provides accommodation for its employees. The house is right next to the River of Forgetfulness. The morning and evening buses run from the morning to [-] o'clock in the morning. If you want to travel at other times, you can go to the steward of the horse stable to buy a car." Ma, there are internal preferential employee prices."

She handed it to Jiang Jun with a key, and made a special explanation so that Jiang Jun would not be confused by taking too many things.

Jiang Jun's eyes lit up, he nodded heavily, and accepted the key.

The welfare is so good, if this is not the underworld, she really wants to settle here.

Jiang Jun searched around according to what Meng Po said, and finally found the small house next to Wangchuan. She took out the key and opened the door, only to find that it was a single room with only one bed and a simple bed. wash bathroom.

A little disappointed, it was quite different from the river view room in her Yangjian.

But contentment is always blissful. If you are not familiar with the place here, it would be nice to have a place to stay.

Jiang Jun hummed a ditty, cleaned the room briefly, put away the boxes, and reported to Granny Meng to prepare for work.

When she arrived at the ferry, Meng Po was already waiting for her on the bank, and there were many ghosts waiting to cross the river. Jiang Jun walked over in three steps and two steps, with a gentle smile on his face: "Meng Sister, shall I start working now?"

"Let's get started. Today's new ghost has been waiting for a long time. Remember to collect money, otherwise taxes and fees will be deducted from your salary. Come on." After Meng Po finished speaking, Shi Shiran left.

Jiang Jun sat in the boat, holding the oars in her hands, a little worried. Although she can row the boat by hand, she used to maneuver the boat when she was at grandma's house. Now I don't know if she will get tired after pulling so many ghosts. cramp.

She found a clay pot from the cabin, and there were a few shiny copper coins in it.

She took out a copper coin from the inside and looked at it carefully. The style of this copper coin was very similar to a round coin with square holes, but the words engraved on the front became Jifu Tongbao, and the flame totem was engraved on the back.

It's a little strange.

But it should be a special coin made by the underworld, and this clay pot should also be used by the boatman to charge.

She put the clay pot on the bow of the boat, collected the fare in advance before the ghost boarded the boat, and then started to cross the river with the ghost.

The ghosts are very light, so Jiang Jun's rowing speed increased unconsciously. He carried three ghosts at a time, rowed back and forth about ten times, and finally transported all the ghosts waiting on the shore.

She leaned against the side of the boat, picked up the jar, poured the money into the cabin, and began to count the money with bright eyes, no more, no less, exactly ninety coins, and the first day's work harvest was still very good.

"Ninety copper coins, it's a good harvest." Meng Po poked her head out from behind Jiang Jun, bent her lips, and slapped her hands, "The tax in the underworld is 30.00% of the income, and it has to be paid at the end of the month. Remember Some of it should be set aside in advance.”

With a pained expression on his face, Jiang Yun pulled out 27 coins from the ninety copper coins, looked up at Po Meng, lowered his head and raised it again, his blue eyes looked pitiful.

"Why are the taxes in the underworld so high?"

Granny Meng sat down beside Jiang Jun, patted her on the shoulder, and comforted her: "This is what Judge Cui ordered, and I can't help it. Look at my small tea stand, which only earns a few hundred yuan a day, isn't it? You also have to pay taxes, and if you calculate carefully, you will pay more than yours."

Jiang Jun's mood is not so low anymore, as expected the best way to comfort others is to be miserable.

Small money is still in your pocket. Although it is a little less, you can still make some money, and it is not a big loss.

She touched the clothes on her body and found that she didn't even have any pockets. She was blind to such beautiful clothes, sighed softly, and turned to ask Po Meng: "Sister Meng, do you know where there is a wallet here? I want to put the money away so I don’t lose it.”

Meng Po: "At present, the Hell is only a small tea stall like mine, and there is no one selling wallets, but I can help you deposit money in the Hell Bank. You can download the Hell Bank app on your phone and register once you go back."

Underworld Bank app

The commerce here is underdeveloped, and there is only one small tea stall. How could there be a bank? This thing is really not just made up by Meng Po?

Seeing Jiang Jun's obvious mistrust, with a small expression of a miser, Meng Po puffed up her chest, quite proud, and said with starry eyes: "The Underworld Bank was developed by our Judge Cui, and it is also the most praised by the Underworld employees in recent years. Conscience app, because the quality of the paper money in Yangjian is uneven, it can be used flexibly after being converted by the underworld bank and then transferred to Yinhun, and it is much more convenient to manage."

Jiang Jun opened his mouth wide: "Judge Cui still understands these things?"

She was a little suspicious that Judge Cui was a coder.

"Of course, Judge Cui has super professional skills, and several apps in the underworld are developed by Judge Cui~"

Jiang Jun recalled that when Cui Wanzhou negotiated the contract with her, he really looked like an elite person. It seemed reasonable to be able to develop such a system, and there was nothing to doubt about it.

"Okay, then please save the money for me."

"It's okay, it's just a matter of little effort. If you need to save money in the future, you can go directly to the silver warehouse of the underworld to deposit it." Granny Meng took the money and walked for two steps, then turned around and came back, with a soft smile in her eyes, "Just now I forgot to tell you one thing, I have already applied to add a bus route to the ferry, and when the bus arrives, you can just get on the bus."

"OK, thanks."

Not long after Jiang Jun watched Po Meng leave, the whistle of the bus came from behind him.

A white modern passenger car parked in front of Jiang Jun, its license plate number scratched, and if the advertisement on the body was not a recruitment advertisement in the underworld, it would not be obvious that it was a shuttle bus from the underworld at all.

Yes, this is very local.

The driver honked the horn for a while, urging Jiang Jun to get in the car quickly.

As soon as she got into the car, the door was closed immediately, and the car started quickly.

Jiang Yan looked at the driver's seat, only to find that the driver turned out to be a paper man with a pipe in his mouth, but the paper man was very well drawn and looked no different from a living person.

But paper figurines are also very scary to drive, and they can’t get out of the car even if they want to.

The car was already full of ghost messengers, bustling with people, some were chatting and some were resting with their eyes closed. They were no different from living people, but when passing by, the surrounding air felt chilly.

She tried her best to hold her breath and reduce her sense of presence. She walked from the first row of seats to the last row of seats, her body was almost frozen, and she finally found an empty seat, which was a seat near the inner side of the double seat.

"Please borrow it."

She breathed a sigh of relief and was about to sit down comfortably when she suddenly saw Cui Wanzhou in the seat next to her.

Cui Wanzhou is wearing a simple black British windbreaker, black trousers, with golden eyes, two long legs overlapping, slender fingers resting on the legs, the whole person looks a bit deserted and abstinent.

Even though they were not very close, she still smelled the familiar faint scent of ink.

It smelled good and reassuring. Jiang Yan heard her heart beating constantly in her chest. She touched her heart, glanced at Cui Wanzhou from the corner of her eye, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Cui Wanzhou noticed her overly enthusiastic gaze, turned her head, and the eyes of the two happened to meet.

Jiang Jun was caught straight, with a panicked expression on his face, he tried to calm down and said, "What a coincidence."

Cui Wanzhou hummed lightly, then looked forward, not letting her pass at all.

Jiang Jun bit his lower lip, trying to attract Cui Wanzhou's attention again, and patted his rainbow fart: "Judge Cui looks really good in his outfit today, it feels different from before."

"What's the difference?"

Looking at Cui Wanzhou's earnest reply to the question, Jiang Jun felt an inexplicable sense of shame from the bottom of his heart, and his face flushed slightly: "The beauty is different. The beauty was luxurious last time, but the beauty is restrained this time."

Cui Wanzhou glanced at Jiang Jun meaningfully, and raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Come and sit down."

After she finished speaking, she stood up from her seat and made way for her.

Jiang Jun was stunned: ...

She hurried past Cui Wanzhou, not daring to take another look at Cui Wanzhou, sat down, turned her head and patted her hot face.

It's too shameful to do rainbow farts!
