After running for an hour, the carriage stopped in an alley. It was the most luxurious restaurant nearby, Guanhai Building, the back door. Wang Xintai got off the carriage and helped his father down. Wang Yan finally jumped down and hurried towards the back door, trying to open the door.

But Wang Xintai nodded and signaled. Wang Yan was stunned for a moment, and then ran back. The three of them took off their patched garland robe, revealing the exquisite and expensive silk robe inside.

"It is actually more conspicuous to come to such a place to eat in costumes, haha." Wang Xintai threw his patch robe into the carriage, took out a shiny top hat from the back seat and held it on his head. Suddenly, the three poor pastors turned into wealthy businessmen.

"Is it the first time I'm here? Your brother is a regular here." The father laughed when he saw Wang Yan's a little at a loss.

"This time it's a celebration banquet to kill Tan Tongen. In addition, A Yan did a good job this time, I'll reward you with my brother! You will be your own person in the future." Wang Xintai's fat hand patted Wang Yan's shoulder and hugged him and walked towards the restaurant.

In the best private room in the restaurant, Wang Yan looked at the things on the dining table and was stunned: roasted suckling pig, white scallion shrimp, dragon and tiger bucket, white cut chicken, taro button pork, braised big skirt fins, Huangpu fried eggs, stewed wheat insects, colorful fried snake silk, chrysanthemum dragon and tiger phoenix snake soup, abalone, shark fin, lobster came up like running water, and soon piled up a huge round dining table, as well as western red wine and cigars.

"This...this...this..." Seeing Wang Yan staring at the dishes, his eyes couldn't even close. Wang Xintai smiled proudly, grabbed Wang Yan's right hand with his left hand and his father's hand with his right hand. He said, "Let's thank you before the meal first."

By closing his eyes and praying silently, this familiar etiquette pulled Wang Yan back from another world, who was surprised and shocked. He closed his eyes tremblingly, but his mouth was dry and his whole body was trembling. He could not find a word in his heart to thank God.

"Amen!" It took a long time in the darkness to hear Wang Xintai shouting beside him, and then he pulled his fat hand away. Wang Yan opened her eyes, but she still couldn't believe that the dazzling array of food in front of her was actually food. He had never seen such a luxurious restaurant before. He could not dream of it in his dream.

"Ha. Look, it shocked your brother." Dad Wang Xintai was trembling with laughter beside him.

"I didn't know what my cousin thought before, and I didn't dare to bring you here to play. Now I know that our family is united, and I will open your eyes to the world in the future." Wang Xintai said apologetically. His father next to him skillfully pulled out a cigar and cut it open. He lit the fire and took a deep breath with comfort.

"Psalm 133:1 Look, how good it is for brothers to live in harmony and how beautiful it is! Now that we have you in our family, we will be like a tiger with wings." Wang Xintai stretched out his chopsticks and picked up the vegetables and put them on the colored plate in front of Wang Yan.

"I usually have to work hard in the church. Everyone wears patched clothes to eat pig food, eat more, Xiaoyuan." The father poured wine attentively.

In the church, everyone eats it with laids. The Wang family occasionally eats it a few times. At that time, they think that big fish and big meat are all luxurious and delicious. Now Wang Yan eats this banquet and feels that small fish and big meat are all extremely frugal in the past.

Wang Yan ate for a while, then looked up and asked, "How much does this banquet cost?"

"It's not expensive, it's just more than 20 yuan." Wang Xintai answered lightly.

"20 yuan?!" Wang Yan was shocked. A worker earned all his income in a meal for several months.

Wang Xintai looked at his cousin with a little "you are really rustic" look and said with a smile: "This place is actually the countryside. I will go to the city to preach next week. I will take you there when I will have a better diet in the city."

Wang Yan looked at these dishes and suddenly felt that the meat in her mouth was gone: because she was invited by her cousin to be a pastor and was related to her, she sincerely helped Wang Xintai deal with Tan Tongen a few months ago, because Tan Tongen graduated from a well-known seminary, and Wang Xintai and him, who graduated from a seminary from another place, always felt that he was a little arrogant.

For example, Tan Tong'en repeatedly asked Wang Xintai to disclose the church accounts, just like the real reformed Presbyterian system, but Wang Xintai said that Tan Tong'en wanted to seize power and seize the church, and Wang Yan believed in his cousin;

For example, Tan Tong'en talks about love, which is different from Wang Xintai, who often scolds other churches and crosses other churches for fighting spirit; Wang Xintai said that Tan Tong'en is a heresy and does not fight for Jesus, but is a party with the devil, and Wang Yan also believed it;

For example, Tan Tong'en had a high level of preaching, good eloquence, and easy to understand. More and more lay believers began to surround Pastor Tan. Wang Xintai said that Tan Tong'en was forming cliques and plotting to split the church, but he was a hungry wolf who robbed sheep, and Wang Yan believed it too;

But tonight, after he found Zhou Lizai, a professional thug, to smash Pastor Tan's place, he was invited to have a sky-high meal of 20 yuan. He even used violence for his faith, but found that the person he was fighting might be the true faith.

In front of the confused heart, the meat loses its taste.

Thinking of this, Wang Yan spit out the shrimp meat in her mouth and looked up and asked, "I often eat such expensive banquets. Tan Tongen said you... say you... are greedy..."

Wang Xintai was already drinking fatly, his face flushed, like a braised pig's head, but when he heard Wang Yan stuttering and having no confidence, he knew what he was anxious about.

He put down his goblet, looked at Wang Yan, and said with great momentum: "Proverbs 28:4 Those who disobey the law praise the wicked; those who obey the law compete with the wicked!"

"Tan Tong'en is a hungry wolf who is mixed into the flock, a devil. He accused me of corrupting church funds and requesting disclosure of accounts for deceitful purposes. Lord, may you forgive Tan Tong'en's despicable bastard and make him repent!"

"But, but..." Wang Yan pointed to the dishes in front of her and stuttered: If you don't use the support of believers, how did you get these things?

"The elders who are good at managing the church should be worthy of double worship. This should be even more so for those who work hard to teach. For the scriptures say that when the ox treads on the field, they should not cage its mouth. And it is said that the wages of workers should be paid.---1 Timothy 5:17-18."

Regarding my younger brother's doubts, Wang Xintai cited another verse in neatly. He put a lot of effort into reading the scriptures.

Then he said, "Look. Before I preached in Shiligou, there was no church, but only some mobile preachers came, because Shiligou was very poor at that time, the environment was poor, and poisonous gas was everywhere. Every year, there were plagues and dozens or hundreds of people died. Who would like to come here to shepherd the sheep? It was me who took root in Shiligou and established the Qiufeng Church.

"So should I eat some good food? Should I use some good food? This is given to me by God."

"It's time to eat!" The father gave his son a thumbs up, his eyes moistened: "Atai has been suffering over the years. He used to sleep in the grass shed. When he returned to the city, he saw that his body was full of red bumps, which were bitten by mosquitoes and poisonous insects."

"Thank God! Now I finally have the hardships and sorrows! Haha!" Wang Xintai raised the red wine glass to his father, who was wiping his tears.

Wipe out the tears and dries a glass of wine. The father laughed and patted his son's shoulder to show off to his cousin: "Your cousin is rich now. We have bought four shops in the city. There are 100 acres of paddy fields outside the city, and there is also a small Western villa that just bought it in full two months ago. As long as you work hard, we are all our own family and we can't treat you badly."

"Are you so rich?" Wang Yan widened her eyes again. In the past, the father and son who always appeared in the image of a poor preacher in patched clothes turned out to be a Monopoly.

Wang Xintai also remembered the difficult years before. He took out a cigar and took a few sips of it, and said, "Xiao Yan, your brother was deceived by a few bad guys before, but he was implicated and whipped by the government. At that time, your uncle was sick and his family was penniless. I really had no choice. I heard that a new factory was started outside the city, so it was easy to find a job here.

After sleeping for several months in the shack, I heard a preacher preaching that night. He knew that I was poor, so he gave me a few cents to buy a bowl of rice.

I was full that day, and I thanked this kind of good man in the shack, thinking about what he said: "If you want others to treat you, you will treat others as you want. You have to do good deeds."

I was thinking about where to do good deeds, but suddenly I remembered that there was a great charity man from Qi in my hometown. The charity man was from the Qing Dynasty. His family was very poor. After a major flood in one year, he took out all the remaining grain in the granary and distributed it to the victims, and sold his own acres of land to the disaster relief;

As a result, he was commended by the court and immediately became a famous person.

Every time there is a disaster nearby and a difficult situation, the kind-hearted rich man will come to him and give him money and food to help him release food for the disaster.

As a result, although he did nothing, when he died, he had already had tens of millions of fertile land, carved beams and painted buildings at home, and had many wives and concubines, becoming the biggest wealthy local.

His famous saying is: ‘Doing good deeds can make money.’

So how do you do good deeds? How do you do good deeds to make money?

That's opening a church!"

After saying that, Wang Xintai smoked and squinted his eyes and smiled.

The father pointed at his son and showed off to Wang Yan: "Nephew, your brother already has gout, and his toes hurt every night! I just got it because I was eating so well, this is a disease of wealth!"

Wang Xintai waved his hand modestly and said, "Paul still has three thorns on his body. My gout is nothing. I have been too fat lately. Xiao Yan, you can pray for me when you go back and let God pull out this thorn on my body."

Wang Yan didn't know what to say, because he thought he wanted to be loyal to God and suffer for the gospel, but he found that someone could make money here.

"Brother, since Tan Tongen has left the church and is short of preaching and preaching now, should we hire a new preacher?" Wang Yan asked.

"You're here to serve Tan Tong'en." Wang Xintai glanced at Wang Yan.

"I'm not very eloquent. When I encounter a lot of people, I feel nervous and sweaty and stutter." Wang Yan said honestly.

"It just so happens that I will only hire preachers with poor preaching skills in the future." Wang Xintai snorted coldly.

"Hmm? What does this mean? How can poor preaching level give full spiritual feeding to believers?" Wang Yan asked.

Wang Xintai snatched the cigar into the brass ashtray: "I don't care whether I feed it or not. I only know that I can never do anything like Tan Tong'en in the future! I would rather have an honest and incompetent preacher than a powerful person to steal the sheep! Sheep are wealth!"

In order to maintain his absolute control, he lowered his sermon level? Wang Yan broke out in a cold sweat.

Then Wang Yan continued to ask, "Brother, I have something unknown, please give me some advice."

"Brother, I'm a family in the future, don't be polite." Wang Xintai picked up a cup of soup and said with his eyes slanted.

Wang Yan said: "I don't understand why you always attack other churches in church preaching? Last time I scolded the Methodist Church as a heretic, but this time I heard you scolded the Baptist Church. Although the plan of the other party's primary school may compete with our church's primary school plan, it is an orthodox church, so it's not good to scold them."

Wang Xintai drank fish soup with his neck and laughed: "I just have to scold me, and I just want to scold the big church!"

Wang Yan was stunned: "What's the reason?"

Wang Xintai asked a question back: "My brother, how do you realize your loyalty to Jesus?"

This question is difficult to answer. The length of the answer is often a lifetime, and he is still trembling. Wang Yan became nervous and stuttered again.

Wang Xintai waved his finger and explained: "Tell you, it's very simple, hatred is the fastest way to show one's loyalty."

"What? Hate shows loyalty?"

"Yes! Look at the emperor in the palace examination last year that the candidates were debating whether tofu brain was salty or sweet, which was a mess. But if there was a religion called the sweet tofu religion, how could we believers show that we are pious to the doctrine?

The easiest and most correct way is to eat sweet tofu brain honestly throughout your life and never touch salty ones. After dying like this, he saw the tofu brain god and said, "Look, I am your loyal servant."

But this is too tiring and too stupid. Who remembers you who have eaten sweet tofu brains for life? Who praises you?

The fastest way is to find a boy who eats salted tofu brain. Seeing that he is thin and has torn clothes, he is easy to bully. You go up and punch him in the face, splash the salted tofu brain on his head, and yell: 'You heresy salty!'

All of a sudden, your loyalty to sweet tofu brain is revealed.

Speaking of this, Wang Xintai laughed and pulled open the shell of a lobster, peeled out the tender meat inside, and smiled proudly: "So, don't worry about me scolding them, I will keep scolding them and hating them all the time. If not, who would say that I, Elder Wang Xintai, is pious?"

"It turns out that hatred is the foundation of faith, no, it is to make money and become famous, hatred is just a means." Wang Yan thought to herself, and the sweat on her head was filled with sweat. She didn't know if this cousin was considered a Christian anymore.

"How do you feel?" Wang Xintai asked his younger brother what he thought.

Wang Yan wiped the sweat all over her head and smiled bitterly, "Thank you Jesus Christ for giving us wisdom, but God has not given us the authority to judge other churches..."

When he was in chaos, the second half of the sentence leaked out Tan Tongen's original words.

At this time, my father spoke in anger: "What's the point of not having authority? Your brother is the god of gout!"
