Jingting the protest in person. "Why spend this money? It's not like I can't teach."
Since Yun Zhaozhao started mentoring the young Daoist priests, she's become very good at coaxing children, and incidentally, she's also become very good at coaxing adults. So, she immediately started coaxing Jingting: "You and Wen Xu have already worked hard enough with your live-streaming sales, how could we let you teach others? Besides, you're so good at swearing, no matter how hard they try to learn, they definitely can't out-swear you. So it's better to find another way and let them learn something else..."
Jingting was indeed easily coaxed into submission by Yun Zhaozhao. Just a moment ago she was sulking, but after hearing Yun Zhaozhao's words, she immediately started happily offering suggestions. "I remember last time when Wen Xu Yun Zhaozhao hiring people to shoot an advertisement, he specifically invited a few internet celebrities and livestreamers. Maybe he has the contact information for the livestreaming company. I'll give him a call later and entrust this matter to him. Maybe they'll give us a discount on the appearance fee because of Brother Wen Xu."
Yun Zhaozhao smiled and said, "Okay!"
Jingting used to be unreliable, but now that he's older, he seems to be getting more and more adept at handling things.
While handling official business, he didn't forget to give false intelligence. When Wen Xu asked him on the phone why he had invited a popular livestreamer to Clear Breeze Temple, Jingting blurted out, "Our abbot has found a group of handsome young men and plans to train them properly, so he wants to invite a livestreamer over to teach them."
Jingting thought she had expressed herself quite accurately, but little did she know that to Wen Xu, her words meant only one thing— Yun Zhaozhao was preparing to fill the harem!
And they didn't just find one person, they found a whole group!!!!

Wen Xu hung up the phone and rushed over.
Upon arrival, I discovered: Oh no, there really are handsome guys here.
The good news is, they are all Daoist priests.
Yun Zhaozhao was quite surprised to see Wen Xu: "Why are you here at this hour? Don't you have to go to work today?"
Wen Xu mumbled, "Something came up."
Yun Zhaozhao: "I don't understand."
Wen Xu: "?"
Yun Zhaozhao: "In this world, is there anything more important than going to work and earning money?"
Wen Xu at Yun Zhaozhao, Wen Xu suddenly said, "... Seeing you reminds me of my dad. It seems career-minded people all have similarities."
Yun Zhaozhao: "Then I don't mind if you call me..."
Wen Xu reacted quickly, covering Yun Zhaozhao's mouth with one hand.
Before he touched her hand, he didn't think of anything, but after he did, his mind immediately started racing. Yun Zhaozhao's warm breath was gently spraying onto his palm, and he could clearly feel Yun Zhaozhao's lips on his hand.
lip...
Yun Zhaozhao's lips were pressed against his palm; wasn't that the same as Yun Zhaozhao kissing his palm?
Wen Xu felt Wen Xu run down his spine, and his entire body flushed red from his face to the roots of his neck.
Just as Yun Zhaozhao was about to reach out and pry Wen Xu's hand away, Wen Xu turned his head and ran out with a bright red face.
Yun Zhaozhao watched his hasty retreating figure, speechless—what on earth was this guy doing here?

The training course for Daoist priests at Clear Breeze Temple has finally officially started operating.
Since there were 20 Daoist priests who came for training, Wen Xu helped to invite two live streamers and then divided the priests into two groups, teaching them in detail how to go online and how to do live streaming.
Although streamers often came to Clear Breeze Temple to do live broadcasts on their own before, it wouldn't be good for Clear Breeze Temple to take the lead in doing a live broadcast, especially with so many people, and to do it directly in the front yard where people come and go. So Yun Zhaozhao specially cleared out a few rooms in the back yard as a live broadcast training room.
When I have Jingting, I sometimes audit classes and help with management.
Before, at Clear Breeze Temple, Jingting was relatively young, so people usually either called him by his Daoist name or respectfully addressed him as "Little Master." But now, in front of these Daoist masters who have come to study, Daoist Priest Jingting's status has risen sharply. Everyone calls him Master Jingting, to the point that Jingting walks with his head held higher than usual.
Clear Breeze Temple already had a wide range of services: the front yard was for visits and worship, and the back yard offered medicinal herb cultivation and fruit picking. With the addition of Daoist Qiuting, a thriving Daoist medicine clinic was also added. Now, it's even more impressive; its services have truly blossomed. Visitors can learn online live streaming, tour the Daoist museum, and occasionally, a tour guide Brother Xiao Ma leads groups of students and their parents on day trips...
To put it Jingting, the small Clear Breeze Temple is truly all-encompassing, containing all five poisons.
Daoist Chang Kong corrected him. "Isn't that called having all five internal organs? I told you to read more books, but you didn't listen. Here's what we'll do: from now on, you should also read the textbooks that the junior Daoist priests from the Qing class bring back from school. It's always good to learn more."
Jingting objected, "What's the point of studying? It's to find a job. I've already found a job, so why would I go back to studying? Besides, if studying were useful, our abbot wouldn't have been unable to find a job back then."
Yun Zhaozhao: "..."Are you being polite?
Daoist Chang Kong knew that Jingting was the most eloquent person in the entire body, so he didn't waste any words with him. "Are you going to read or not? If you don't read, you're not allowed to eat the food I cook in the future."
Jingting immediately backed down. "I'll read it."
Yun Zhaozhao, watching from the side, laughed hysterically, "See? Who says studying is useless? Studying is very useful! At least it can help you make a living! Literally, make a living."
Jingting: "..."
To make a living, Jingting began a life of constant change. By day, she would proudly present herself as Master Jingting to the Daoist priests, and by night, she would pitifully teach herself to read and write in front of a group of elementary school students. Her life was a stark contrast between heaven and hell by day and hell by night.
In the past, Clear Breeze Temple was bustling during the day but quite quiet at night. Now it's different; with more and more people, it's become lively at night as well.
Yun Zhaozhao found them too noisy, so she would occasionally go back to her new house to stay at night.
Wen Xu was worried about not finding a chance to see Yun Zhaozhao every day, so after learning about this, he started calling Yun Zhaozhao every night as a routine, initially asking, "Are you coming back to stay out tonight? If so, I'll drive over and pick you up."
Later it became. "Are you coming tonight?"
Yun Zhaozhao: "..." How ambiguous you are!
Chapter 149
With many Daoist priests coming to Clear Breeze Temple for exchanges and learning, the temple now has more manpower than before.
Yun Zhaozhao had previously considered leasing all the mountains and forests near Clear Breeze Temple and planting trees in them. On the one hand, she didn't want these mountains and forests to be abandoned, and on the other hand, it would also be an additional source of income.
With these 20 or so young and strong Daoist priests joining now, Yun Zhaozhao felt that the time was ripe for afforestation.
Although these Daoist priests weren't from Clear Breeze Temple, they had no objections to the afforestation project. After all, they had done their share of work at their own family temples, farming and growing vegetables were part of their daily routine. Moreover, now that they were at Clear Breeze Temple, they were indebted to them and naturally wouldn't go against Yun Zhaozhao.
In fact, not only did they not oppose Yun Zhaozhao, but when they heard that Yun Zhaozhao wanted to contract the mountains and forests to reclaim wasteland and plant trees, they all offered their own opinions and suggestions to Yun Zhaozhao.
"I suggest planting pine trees. Pine trees are adaptable and grow quickly."
"Planting camphor trees is a good idea; they're ornamental and can also be used to make furniture and other things."
Yun Zhaozhao listened with a smile, then decisively made a decision. "Okay, let's do it your way, and whoever makes the suggestion is responsible..."
Just as the Daoist priests who had previously offered suggestions were about to object, Yun Zhaozhao quickly added, "Whoever is in charge will receive a larger bonus when they leave Clear Breeze Temple. After all, more work, more pay—it's fair."
Now everyone had no objections and happily began making preparations according to Yun Zhaozhao's tree-planting plan.
Speaking of the mountains near Clear Breeze Temple, most of them, like the farmland and orchards that Yun Zhaozhao had previously contracted, are collective property of the nearby villagers. When Yun Zhaozhao and Grandpa Lin contracted the tea gardens and farmland together, they had already signed a series of lease contracts with the villagers. In recent years, Clear Breeze Temple has paid the contract fees to the nearby villagers on schedule. Therefore, now that Yun Zhaozhao is contracting the nearby mountains and forests in the name of Clear Breeze Temple, the procedures and contracts are even smoother than when she contracted the farmland and orchards.
Moreover, upon hearing that Yun Zhaozhao wanted to contract the mountain forest to plant trees, the village chief even took the initiative to lower the contract fee for Yun Zhaozhao, since afforestation and road construction are both good things that benefit the local area.
Once the contract was signed, Yun Zhaozhao had Lin Banxia wholesale a large batch of saplings and give them to the Daoist priests at Clear Breeze Temple, so they could lead the nearby villagers up the mountain to plant the trees.
In the mornings, the Daoist priests learned how to conduct online live streaming at Clear Breeze Temple. In the afternoons, they followed the nearby villagers all over the mountains and fields to learn how to dig holes and plant trees. They learned more new things every day than they had in a month at their own Daoist temples.
My days were incredibly fulfilling.

Clear Breeze Mountain, where Clear Breeze Temple is located, was originally a pleasant place with a pleasant climate. However, it was not well-known at the time and was some distance from the city center, so it was not very popular.
Now, thanks to the fame of Clear Breeze Temple, Clear Breeze Mountain has long become a well-known mountain in the area.
Not only do many hiking enthusiasts come together to climb and play on Clear Breeze Mountain, but also many tourists from other places will climb up to enjoy the Clear Breeze Temple after visiting Qingfeng Temple.
However, although Clear Breeze Mountain is covered with lush trees, when you stand on the top of Clear Breeze Mountain and look down at the surrounding mountains, you can see that many of the nearby mountains lack greenery. Therefore, Yun Zhaozhao's afforestation plan this time is to take Clear Breeze Mountain as the axis and the distance from Clear Breeze Mountain to Clear Breeze Temple as the radius, and strive to turn the mountains near Clear Breeze Mountain into lush forests just like Clear Breeze Mountain.
