Chapter 73 "Yu Xiaoan and dogs are not allowed to enter"
"what happened?"
Tang San frowned slightly: "Is there any problem with this?"
The originally friendly attitude towards Su Yuntao slipped towards dissatisfaction.
Just like in the original novel, when Tang San met the teachers from Notting City College in the Academic Affairs Office, he heard them talking about Yu Xiaogang with contempt and disgust both directly and behind her back.
Adding on the negative review from You Chen's secondary account You Xing, it can be said that Tang San has heard several bad comments about his teacher.
Especially the situation where Yu Xiaogang was unable to directly refute Youxing's doubts and could only bow his head and endure it, which made Tang San in this time and space much more sensitive to his teacher's reputation than in the original work.
When Su Yuntao mentioned Yu Xiaogang, Tang San instinctively had an angry thought: "Is this guy here to talk about my teacher, Tang San?"
The attitude will naturally not be very good.
And Su Yuntao didn't notice the change in Tang San's attitude, or maybe he didn't care about the change in a child's attitude?
His expression remained the same as always. He just smiled and waved his hands, saying, "No, no, no, the practice of a soul master is a private matter. I won't comment on your choice."
As soon as these words came out, Tang San's expression became much better.
But soon, his expression became even gloomier than before.
Su Yuntao continued to say the second half of the sentence, "It's just that the big shot of the Spirit Hall asked me to convey a message to your teacher. The original words of that big shot were as follows..."
He seemed to be imitating someone's tone. He coughed, straightened his neck, put on airs, and said indifferently: "Yu Xiaoan, don't you know that the subsidies issued by the Spirit Hall are to help young people to successfully pass the growth period? You are an old man in his forties, a traitor to the Spirit Hall. How can you have the nerve to come to the door again and again to collect these 10 gold soul coins!? I have already instructed the white-clothed deacons and guards of the Notting City Spirit Hall to forbid you to set foot in the Spirit Hall again! If I know that there will be a next time, hehe, I have prepared a sign at the door as a notice. Well, it will say - [Yu Xiaoan and dogs are not allowed to enter!]!'"
……
Tang San’s anger can be imagined.
Even after arguing with Su Yuntao, Su Yuntao just said helplessly that he was just a messenger.
But even if Tang San asked who was behind the order, Su Yuntao just looked serious and kept silent.
As for Su Yuntao's inner thoughts...
Of course it’s awesome!
In the entire Notting City Spirit Hall, no one likes this guy Yu Xiaogang.
He is clearly a loser, but he looks down on others all day long, as if he is some big shot. He is so arrogant that it is really disgusting.
No one would like that condescending attitude.
In the past, I turned a blind eye to it because the Palace Master was indifferent to Yu Xiaogang.
Now that they were able to severely humiliate Yu Xiaogang, naturally the soul masters of commoner origins in the Spirit Hall were able to vent their anger.
In a sense, this is also the reason why everyone in the Spirit Hall is willing to cooperate with You Chen. If you must say, although the document that established this project did state that the purpose of this subsidy is to support young civilian spirit masters with no background, and use this money to help them get through the most difficult starting stage. (Just like normal project establishment, the purpose of the funds must be stated.)
However, the Spirit Hall does not have any explicit regulations prohibiting spirit masters over a certain age from receiving subsidies.
Soul masters are not bad at making money. Take Tang San for example. He is a blacksmith. Even if he does not have the skill, his income can far exceed that of ordinary people just by relying on the strength of his soul power.
Before he displayed his hammer skills, he did not reveal his identity as a soul master. In the eyes of the blacksmith, he was probably just an ordinary soul master.
I still got a salary of one Gintama coin a day.
Even if the blacksmith shop owner was kind-hearted, the three gold soul coins a month, even if cut in half, would still be more than the monthly subsidy from the Spirit Hall.
If a soul master is willing to work, his income will definitely not be bad.
The subsidies given by the Spirit Hall are more to save the civilian spirit masters who are in the rapid development period time for cultivation, and spend as much time as possible on cultivation when they are young, instead of going out to work.
Yu Xiaogang was cursing the Spirit Hall while taking the subsidies that the Spirit Hall had obtained for civilian spirit masters, which was somewhat unkind of him.
When You Chen first read the original novel, he wanted to complain: "You are so awesome, why don't you go out to work? Don't you have hands? Why do you still want to collect this subsidy to live a lazy life?"
In fact, no one could fail to see what Yu Xiaogang was thinking. A master should be able to command the world from a high position. How could he possibly do those dirty and lowly jobs?
As a yellow-robed deacon, You Chen theoretically still has the authority to order the white-robed deacons and the servants of the Spirit Hall.
Of course, he didn't care about how the hall master, who was actually Bibi Dong's man, would help him take back his decision, or deduct a few months' salary from him.
Moreover, it was obvious that Yu Xiaogang was a traitor to the Spirit Hall and a person who was seeking fame and reputation with a very bad reputation. Forcibly retrieving such a person would definitely be a huge blow to the reputation of the hall master.
The same is true for Bibi Dong. If he is punished for a little girl, even Bibi Dong will be questioned a lot.
By then, Youchen will naturally be freer.
At least one task can be completed.
No matter how you calculate it, he's not losing out.
What can Tang San do all alone?
He had no choice but to go back to Yu Xiaogang's residence and relay the humiliating content to his teacher in the most tactful way possible.
After hearing Tang San's suggestion to "take the initiative to argue", Yu Xiaogang's face darkened, and he shook his head and said, "Xiao San, have you ever thought about why I have been here for so many years, and the Spirit Hall has never had anyone deliberately subsidize me with gold soul coins to embarrass me, but now suddenly something like this has happened?"
Tang San didn't know this information before, but now after hearing what Yu Xiaogang said, he suddenly understood: "Teacher, have you figured out who is making things difficult for you?"
Yu Xiaogang nodded: "The one who can be called a big shot by the white-robed deacon must be at least a yellow-robed deacon, or even a bishop of a higher position. During this period of time, the only possible big shot who came to Notting City...isn't that the only one?"
Tang San's expression suddenly changed, his pupils shrank, and he said softly: "You Xing's teacher...theoretical master, You Chen?"
Doubt and confusion flashed across Tang San's eyes, and then turned into raging rage.
He clenched his fists and questioned word by word, "Why, why would he treat you like this as a fellow theorist? It was like this more than 20 years ago, and it is still like this more than 20 years later!"
