Chapter 668: Chapter 480 Liu Zheng: Helping Someone Achieve Enlightenment, Is It Real?

"I can’t really discuss the two pieces of information you’re looking for here."

The security guard with a little gray in his hair said with a pained expression.

"Then just talk about something you can discuss."

Liu Zheng said considerately.

"Like what?"

"Like, how does one earn the honorary homeowner medal in this neighborhood?"

He offered an example.

He only came to understand the true value of the honorary homeowner medal after delivering takeout to the Mini People for the second time.

Just gaining cooperation from the property management and homeowners during work, if used well, is already a powerful tool for gathering intelligence.

And being able to freely come and go from the community still doesn’t show much potential yet, but one day it’ll come in handy.

And with Green Garden Mad City having a novelist in residence and the high frequency of forced deliveries, earning an honorary homeowner medal here is surely the right move.

"The honorary homeowner medal, that’s not easy to obtain."

The security guard hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Will you need a long time to explain? If it’s long, I’ll wait until after I deliver the takeout."

Liu Zheng glanced at his phone and said.

"It’s not really long. The conditions for earning the honorary homeowner medal here are both simple and complicated."

The security guard shook his head.

"Don’t keep me guessing, just spit it out."

He urged.

"You only need recommendations from ten new homeowners or three who have lived here for more than ten years to earn the honorary homeowner medal. It must be the property-owning homeowner themselves; family members or tenants don’t count."

The security guard explained.

"Are the two households I’ve delivered to long-time homeowners?"

"Both of those are."

The security guard nodded.

"Then it’s just one more to go."

Liu Zheng mused.

The novelist is a given, surely they would recommend him.

The pajama-clad boy is also easy; Liu Zheng brought back a dozen sausages from Yate specifically for that kid.

If it’s not enough, he’ll just turn some more sausages around.

"How about this household?"

Liu Zheng read out the address and name of the person who ordered this time.

"This isn’t it; they’ve only moved here a little over eight years ago."

The security guard recalled, then shook his head.

"You remember all the details about the homeowners here?"

He expressed surprise.

"Of course, I can’t remember everything, but I’ve got a good handle on the long-time homeowners."

The security guard shook his head.

"That’s impressive. You’re truly devoted to your job, my friend."

Liu Zheng praised.

"There’s no other way; folks from the countryside have to be stronger and work harder than city folks to get a foothold here."

"While they’re slacking at work or partying after hours, I never go unless they specifically call me; I pour it all into work."

The security guard said with slight pride.

"Exactly, us rural folks wanting to become city people can only outdo them."

He agreed.

"You’re from the countryside too?"

"Yeah."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Although their welfare center is funded by the county, the address is in the countryside, and he grew up running wild among the fields.

"Which town are you from?"

The security guard showed interest.

"Weidi Lake Town, ever heard of it?"

"Nope."

The security guard shook his head.

"It’s normal not to have heard of it; it’s so remote, even more than Ten Thousand Great Mountains to the city."

He said.

"Wow, that far. How did you get here?"

The security guard was shocked.

"Don’t even mention it; one day I was ready to die when someone asked me if I wanted to avoid dying. Of course, I said yes, and then I signed some sort of agreement and, next thing I knew, I woke up in the city."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"That might have been some big shot playing a joke; I’ve heard others tell similar stories."

The security guard said sympathetically.

"Perhaps. Help me out, my friend. If I can get the honorary homeowner medal, you’d certainly benefit too."

He returned to the topic.

"The long-time homeowners in this neighborhood aren’t easy to deal with; it’s best not to bother them if you don’t have an order."

The security guard shook his head.

"I know, but surely not all long-time homeowners are difficult to deal with. You know so much about them, help me think it over."

Liu Zheng said, stuffing some cash into the security guard’s pocket again.

"Hey, Brother Liu, this is too kind."

The security guard felt a bit embarrassed.

"Etiquette never offends anyone. Even an Emperor wouldn’t underfeed his soldiers, so how could I ask you to help me on an empty stomach? Right?"

He smiled as he said.

"Yes, yes."

The security guard agreed repeatedly.

No doubt about it, you’re completely right.

He’s been in the city for several years now, and honestly, the managers and colleagues around him aren’t too bad.

Usually, if they have meat to eat, the security guard gets some soup.

But the issue is, even if there is plenty of meat, they just give him a spoonful of soup.

Unlike Liu Zheng, who offers him both meat and extra soup.

Having accepted the money, the security guard began to think.

One homeowner name after another flashed through his mind until they slowly came to a stop.

"Got it, the owner of apartment 304 in Building 15 has been trying to reach enlightenment. If you can help him achieve that, he surely would be willing to write a recommendation letter for you."

The security guard said.

"...My friend, aren’t you overestimating me?"

Liu Zheng asked in disbelief.

"If I had the ability to help someone find enlightenment, why would I need to work as a delivery guy?"

Even the most negligible Buddha wouldn’t end up having to work for the Bloody Restaurant.

"Brother Liu, I think you’ve misunderstood; when he says reaching enlightenment, he means moving on. That homeowner is an Earth Spirit, stuck at home without purpose, wanting to go to the cemetery but unable to overcome the lingering obsession in his heart, so he wants someone to help him achieve enlightenment."
