Chapter 173: Observing One Person Every Day Accumulates Hundreds of Good Deeds
Xiaopang was quite willing to listen to what He Kao said. The next day, he came to tell him, "There are more than 30 people in this department, and I only found two who are not sick. Do I have to be more careful when dealing with these two people in the future?"

He Kao: "Who is it?"

Xiaopang: "One is you, and the other is President E."

He Kao smiled: "Of course you have to be careful. Your master asked me to supervise your practice. President E is the head of our department."

Xiaopang scratched the back of his head and said, "Why are so many people sick?"

He Kao: "You're not a doctor, so you haven't figured out the difference between having a problem and being sick. Some people are just not healthy enough, with some functions being a little weaker, but you can't say they're sick."

Xiaopang: "Why do you speak in a tone similar to my master?"

He Kao: "Did Senior Lin say the same thing?"

Xiaopang: "Yes."

He Kao: "Then why do you say that everyone is sick? It's just that their physical constitution is not perfect. Your master wants you to observe one person every day and accumulate a hundred virtues until you reach perfection in the first level... Have you done your homework today?"

Xiaopang: "Yes, I did. I found a lot of problems with it for Lao Zhang early this morning."

He Kao: "Where's Lao Zhang? Why didn't he come for lunch?"

They were talking in the company's restaurant, speaking in low voices as if they were sharing some secret. It was only when they got to this point that He Kao realized that Lao Zhang seemed to be missing.

Xiaopang: "He's already gone to the hospital, his face is extremely pale... Does this count as doing a good deed every day?"

He Kao said sternly, "Senior Lin's original words were 'Observe one person a day, and you will accumulate a hundred virtues,' but he didn't say anything about doing one good deed a day! Besides, you're not really doing good deeds, you're just deliberately trying to scare people, right?"

The so-called "observing one person a day" means choosing an observation object every day, carefully feeling the flow of qi and blood in their meridians, observing their characteristics, and if any abnormalities are found, analyzing their possible causes.

The so-called "accumulation of a hundred virtues" means that among these analysis samples, a total of one hundred conclusions of the balance of the five elements are reached. The so-called "good" means perfection, not doing good deeds.

There are huge individual differences between people, so we need a sufficient number of samples to observe in order to know which people are relatively normal under what circumstances.

This is very important because the so-called normal state varies from person to person. The recovery standard for an athlete may be to be able to play in a football game, but this may not be the case for an old mathematics teacher.

This is the daily practice of a first-level diagnostician.

Of course, when necessary and possible, if you find that someone has a problem that requires timely treatment, you can try to remind the other person.

This morning, Xiaopang had his eye on Lao Zhang, because it was Lao Zhang who took the initiative to approach him. Xiaopang acted concerned and said that Lao Zhang looked unwell, with dark circles under his eyes and black lips, and asked if he had heart problems.
Then he asked Lao Zhang if he had been feeling this or that lately. The more he asked, the more he felt. He was fine at first, but after returning to his workstation, Lao Zhang inexplicably began to sweat.

Before lunchtime, Lao Zhang clutched his chest and went to ask for leave from President E, saying he felt unwell and needed to go to the hospital for a checkup. From the look of him, it looked like he was worried he might suddenly die at any moment...

Mr. Zhang is indeed not in good health. His heart and some other functions are not in good condition, which is mainly caused by his lifestyle habits. But as long as he doesn't deliberately do anything to seek death, he will not die suddenly.

Going to the hospital for a checkup is not a bad thing.

What happened with Old Zhang was just a small episode. With Xiaopang's temper, he was totally capable of doing that. He Kao just reminded him of the precautions that Lin Qingshuang had given him.

Xiaopang couldn't see anything wrong with Gao Xue'e, and he didn't care too much. With so many people in a department, there must be a few who are healthy in all aspects. It can only be attributed to the category of "good physique and no problems".

As for He Kao, Xiaopang still can't see through it with his current level.

There are various methods and experiences summarized by predecessors on how to judge whether someone is a sorcerer, but it is still not easy because no one can write the level of cultivation on their forehead.

For example, Lin Qingshuang is good at concealing her breath, and the stealth technique practiced by He Kao also has a very good effect in concealing her breath, so it is difficult to see any clues under normal circumstances.

Qian was undoubtedly the cultivator who had observed He Kao the longest. He had originally judged that He Kao's cultivation was at least at the second level, mainly because it was difficult for ordinary people to achieve that kind of perfect state of spirit.

However, this judgment was only a guess, and it was impossible to tell what the opponent's true methods were. However, once the various techniques were used, the characteristics of the spiritual fluctuations would be impossible to conceal.

When He Kao fought with Ren Zhongqing that day, he not only exposed his third-level cultivation, but also made Qian Guran confirm that he was the secret disciple of the geomancer Gu Chun, because He Kao performed the Ren Di Ban Xing Shu as skillfully as Ren Zhongqing.

He Kao's current situation was actually much more dangerous than Xiaopang's, so how could he tell if the person he met was a sorcerer? Jiang Daozhen had already considered this problem, so he gave him a cheat and left him with the divine mind seal.

He Kao could recognize any sorcerer who was officially included in the genealogy during the general survey of sorcerer disciples in October last year, and he would know the origin of their cultivation... as long as the other party did not deliberately conceal their whereabouts.

That's why he could recognize Second Uncle Xiao Guangnian as soon as they met, and he could also recognize Ren Zhongqing at a glance.

But plug-ins are not omnipotent. First of all, the information of elder-level warlocks is not in this divine mind seal, and there are also many "wild" warlocks who are not included in the statistics of the magic sect.

Moreover, as time goes by, the content of this divine mind seal will become more and more outdated. For example, the people around him, Qian Guran and Lin Qingshuang have broken through to the fourth level one after another, and Xiaopang and Meng Ya have also recently entered the magic sect.

For the next week, He Kao supervised Xiao Pang's cultivation, and Xiao Pang didn't cause any trouble. Before leaving work that day, he received a call. Mr. Qian asked He Kao to report to work.

The tea was ready, and Mr. Qian did not sit behind the desk, but waited by the coffee table.

He Kao sat down on the sofa and said, "Boss Qian, what can I do for you?"

Qian Guran: "Your tone! Who is the leader between us?"

He Kao laughed: "Of course you are the boss. I already call you Mr. Qian. You just came here to report on your work after a phone call. What exactly do you want me to report on?"

Qian Guran: "Okay, I'll report to you."

He Kao: "Just tell me what you have to say."

Qian Guran: "Two things. The first is that Mr. Fang mentioned at the CEO's office meeting that he wants to appoint a new deputy director in your department."

He Kao: "There's nothing wrong with the business. The senior executives are doing a good job. There's no need to do this, right? Even from the perspective of saving labor costs, this is unnecessary. The project team doesn't lack leaders."

Qian Guran: "Do you know what it means to appoint a deputy director in this situation?"

He Kao: "How would I know? I'm not good at office politics. You're the boss, please tell me."

Qian Guran: "Boss E is doing a good job and there are no problems with the business. In this situation, there are usually a few possibilities for such an incident.

First, someone is difficult to assign, so giving him this sinecure is just a bonus. Second, it's about decentralizing power, taking some of the business authority away from the original supervisor.

The third is to take over, just as a transition, to familiarize yourself with the job for a while before taking over the original supervisor's position. As for the fourth, it might be to find a breakthrough, to do something..."

He Kao interrupted him and asked, "What about Mr. Qian's possibility?"

Qian Guran: "This is the department I'm in charge of, so they should have asked for my opinion. But Mr. Fang is the boss after all, and I haven't figured out his specific approach yet."

He Kao: "Even you don't understand?" Qian Guran waved his hand and said, "Because I don't even want to understand!" He took a sip of tea before continuing, "And the second thing is, someone wants to fire Huang Si."

He Kao was really surprised this time: "What, fire Xiaopang?"

The branch company has no recent layoff plans, otherwise Qian would have heard about it in advance. So the so-called firing of Huang Si is just an excuse to dismiss this employee alone. What is going on?
After Lao Qian explained it to him, He Kao finally understood the whole story.

It turned out that Lao Zhang wanted to get rid of Huang Si. The reason was certainly not because Xiaopang scared him to the hospital, but because a leader promised to promote him to deputy director.

It is in compliance with regulations to add a deputy supervisor to the project team. This is a decision made by the top leader, and neither Vice President Qian nor senior supervisors can stop it.

However, as for the specific appointment, at the deputy director level, Gao Xue'e has the right to recommend, while Qian Guran has the final say. This is because this is the department Qian Guran is in charge of, and this is the personnel appointment process.

The candidate they put forward was Huang Si.

Huang Xiaopang has been in the company for five years. He was originally a business backbone at the group headquarters and is now the team leader of the project team in charge of core business. It is natural for him to be promoted.

Lao Zhang is the most senior employee in the project team and is also the team leader. Mr. Fang's opinion is to promote Lao Zhang, but Mr. Qian disagrees.

Qian certainly used business ability as an excuse and brought out Huang Si to suppress Lao Zhang... In short, the candidates decided at the president's work meeting were these two people, with Huang Si ranking ahead of Zhang Junchen.

This can be considered as an open and secret struggle within the company.

If Mr. Fang insists on promoting Lao Zhang but wants to avoid a direct conflict with Mr. Qian, there is a solution. He can transfer Lao Zhang to another department to be the deputy director, but this is obviously not Mr. Fang's purpose.

So Lao Zhang had some thoughts and planned to report the fat kid...

Hearing this, He Kao frowned and said, "You also know about Lao Zhang taking Xiao Pang to the foot massage parlor? If he wants to use this to report it, he has to bring down that foot massage parlor first. Does he have that much power?"

Qian Guran shook his head and said, "That's not the case. Lao Zhang set up a trap for Xiaopang. Xiaopang ordered Technician No. 8 for those two nights. You can order takeout. You know what I mean, right?"

He Kao shook his head seriously and said, "I don't know."

Qian Guran: "You really don't know?"

He Kao: “I really don’t know.”

Qian had no choice but to explain it again.

Xiaopang called the same technician for two consecutive days, which showed that he was still very satisfied with his service. The technician also took the opportunity to ask for Xiaopang's contact information.

She can come out and provide services elsewhere, which has nothing to do with the foot massage parlor. This is what is meant by ordering takeout.

He Kao: "But Xiaopang didn't order takeout."

Qian Guran: "But Lao Zhang doesn't know, according to him, Xiaopang will definitely order takeout.

Lao Zhang knew the technician number eight, and probably made Xiaopang look like a particularly generous sucker. He also knew that she had Xiaopang's contact information.

Even if Xiaopang didn't think of ordering takeout, the other party would actively promote it... Even if it was just a chance encounter on the street, Xiaopang is just an inexperienced rookie and would be easily tricked."

He Kao frowned and said, "Are we going to wait and see and then call the police to catch them in the act?"

Qian Guran shook his head and said, "That's not necessary. As long as Xiaopang ordered takeout and left evidence, we can choose the right time to report him. Lao Zhang has a cousin who is a policeman, so we can just boost our sales..."

He Kao: "What else did you find out?"

Qian Guran: "I also found out the technician's name, ID number, and criminal record. She had been arrested by the police before, and one of the officers who arrested her was Lao Zhang's cousin."

In a situation like that, she would have to disclose a few clients to the police to boost sales. If she gets arrested next time, it's still... Anyway, this is all I found out."

He Kao felt that Lao Qian was too modest. It was not just this little bit of information, he had found out everything! He couldn't help but shake his head and said, "I was negligent. I didn't even know about this."

Qian Guran also shook his head and said, "This is not negligence. There are so many things in the world, how can you pay attention to everything? I just have different professional skills, and I have been more concerned about Junior Brother Huang recently."

He Kao: "Why did you tell me first? You should go and warn Xiaopang himself."

Qian Guran: "If I tell him, with his temper, he'll probably put a sack in Lao Zhang's arms on his way home from get off work. Nothing has happened yet, so there's no need to make a big fuss."

He Kao: "You are the leader, you handle this matter. No matter what method you use, get Zhang Junchen out immediately. Otherwise, if Senior Lin finds out that someone dared to do this to her beloved disciple, it will not only be a sack, but also half his life will be cut off."

Qian Guran: "Just firing him is too easy. I still need to make this Zhang Junchen suffer."

Someone was trying to get Xiaopang, and it had nothing to do with Yin'e's identity. It was actually to compete for the position of deputy director of a department. He Kao felt an indescribable sense of absurdity.

Xiaopang is already the successor of Lin Qingshuang. As long as he practices well and makes his master happy, he won’t care about being a mere deputy director of a project team!

If he really gets into trouble because of this incident, who can Xiaopang turn to for justice?
This incident also reminded He Kao that sometimes, things that he doesn't care about at all may be of great concern to other people, and others may think that they care too... just like the cat avatar always thinks that someone is trying to snatch the dead mouse from it.

He Kao once reminded Xiaopang to be careful about who might be a sorcerer around him, but facts have proved that guys who use underworld tricks to harm others are not necessarily sorcerers.

After thinking for a moment, He Kao asked again, "You asked me to come here not just for Lao Zhang's matter, right? Isn't it time to replace the head of our branch office?"

Qian Guran's smile was actually a little shy: "I came to you today to say hello in advance. The management of our business unit may undergo some changes in the near future.

I think it will be in the first half of the year, but I can’t say for sure, it’s not set in stone yet.”

He Kao: "I'm just a low-level employee. You don't have to tell me. But I'm a little curious. You just arrived at the company and you got something on Mr. Fang. How could you have tolerated it until now?"

Qian Guran: "At that time, my foothold was not stable. Even if I replaced Mr. Fang, I would not be able to move up, so why bother? Besides, as a disciple of the Shu Sect, cultivation is the most important thing. I am also very busy and too lazy to worry about these trivial matters.

In fact, I have the leverage over Mr. Fang, but I don't want to deal with him. If he just does his job as the boss, I won't do anything to him.

But the current situation is that he actually took the wrong medicine and actively wanted to mess with me. There is some inside information at the group headquarters, so there is no need to tell you in detail..."

He Kao didn't know what to say. He was silent for a moment before he said, "Thank you, Mr. Qian, for your hard work so that our brothers can live and work in peace and contentment!"

Qian was certainly amused by him and chuckled, "That's not impossible."

He Kao: "If there's nothing else, I'll go downstairs and continue working. I haven't finished today's work yet."

Qian Guran quickly grabbed him and said, "Something's going on, something else... Xiaokao, if I didn't come to see you today, wouldn't you come to see me? You can't always leave these three bottles of Chunlin Pill with me!"
