Cheng Xiaolian glanced at Qin Ming and put down the chopsticks in his hand: "First of all, if you White Lotus Sect wants to survive and feed so many people, you must find some work to do that can make a living. ”

"Are we so unbearable in the eyes of His Highness?"

"I admit that most of you have a loving heart, but the most important thing is that they don't have money, and if you really want to spread your faith, you have to create it yourself, not count on the money of the congregation."

"Your Highness is a little unreasonable to say this, Taoism and Buddhism all rely on believers to give alms, why do you have to get your own money when you come to us?"

Cheng Xiaolian glanced at him: "Taoism and Buddhism are preaching the reincarnation of heaven anyway, but you are preaching and encouraging the people who can't live to rebel, in fact, this is nothing, there will be no people who can't live in my Ming Dynasty to follow you to rebel, but I'm afraid that you will be addicted to rebellion, and you have to make some things out if you don't have anything, so I will find something for you to do, don't tell you, the herdsmen on the grassland also have their own beliefs, if you can make them believe in your sect through your own efforts, It's your own work. ”

"We're going to be sent to the steppe to preach, and you're saying it's for our good?"

"If you know some history, you will understand one thing, no sect in the past dynasties can influence the decision of the imperial court, you can preach, let the teachings of the White Lotus spread to the world, but can not affect the rule of the imperial court, you see that Taoism has lasted for thousands of years, and now it is not still vigorous, if you do not cross the line, the imperial court will not care about you. But now if you don't cross the line, you don't have the capital to compete with Taoism and Buddhism, so I let you go to the grassland, if you lose the money of the sect, you can't start, that can only prove that the White Lotus Sect is mainly a rebellion, do you say that the imperial court can tolerate you at that time? ”

Qin Ming said lightly: "Did you plant secret agents around us?" ”

"Just take precautions."

"Then do you think I can take your head in three steps?"

"I believe you won't, if you are alone, of course you dare to splatter ten steps of blood, but there are tens of thousands of sectarians behind you, if you insist on going your own way, then the land of Sichuan and Shu will be a mess, and hundreds of people will be displaced because of this. This is contrary to your teachings. ”

"Your Highness also knows our teachings?"

"After all, you once wanted to take my lady to you, and of course I want to know what you do."

Qin Ming's eyes lit up: "Then what does Your Highness think of our doctrine?" ”

"Emperor Wu of Liang worshiped Buddha, causing the rebellion of Hou Jing, and he was starved to death. Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty is still Dao, and Yan Song's generation started with green words, and finally exhausted the Ming family, which made the Ming Dynasty die. Do you think I'll believe that? ”

Qin Ming stood up with a wry smile: "I thought that these teachings were enough to attract you, you are really an overlord, so let's go to the grassland." It's just that we don't have enough money or silver to buy silk and tea. ”

"You just said that your sect is rich."

"I have just been taught by His Highness, and I think it is wrong to take the money of the sect members, so from this moment on, I will not take a penny from the sect members."

"Treacherous and cunning."

"Each other, each other."

Cheng Xiaolian stood up, Qin Ming also stood up, and the two stretched out their palms: "A gentleman's word." ”

"It's hard to chase a horse."

"I know that some kings have always said nothing, but if you dare to break your oath, I will take your head."

"Why should I break my oath, it's mutually beneficial."

"It's a good mutual benefit and win-win situation, then I wish our wishes come true!"

Qin Ming stepped out, Cheng Xiaolian's back was already soaked, looked at Yang Youcai and Lu Li who came in, and smiled bitterly: "I should have listened to you if I knew it, it's really stressful to be in a room with a master, you don't know that when he just said that he wanted blood to splash ten steps, my heart was about to jump out." ”

Yang Youcai laughed: "His Royal Highness always trusts the big, this time it can be regarded as a lesson, let's fight the world, not the stories that Mr. Storyteller said in the innermost, those storytellers told the story so mysteriously in order to make a few more money, Your Highness, think about it, how dare Li Shimin go to the enemy's woods alone, isn't it all to meet Xue Rengui." ”

Cheng Xiaolian waved his hand: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and help me out, my feet are weak." ”

"But I really admire Your Highness, as long as all their backbones go to the grassland, whether it is selling silk or preaching, it won't be long before those well-fed people will settle down, and when they come back, it will not be easy to pull up so many people."

This time, the silver will be paid by Cheng Xiaolian, because he wants to avoid the Gu family, since he doesn't pull others to earn this money, he is naturally embarrassed to let the family pay the silver again, otherwise it will be spread, and the reputation of unloading the mill and killing the donkey will not be able to run away.

So Cheng Xiaolian took out 50,000 taels of silver and handed it to Qin Ming: "I hope that when you come back, you can bring me good horses, as for how much silver you can earn, it all depends on your own ability." ”

Qin Ming didn't have the slightest pretension, and let people count out the silver: "I will let people exchange these for silk and tea, I don't know the market of the grassland, don't blame me if you lose money, we are all rushing to preach, these 50,000 taels of silver, just when you buy my sect members." You must feed them, and don't forget our high-fives. ”

"Although rest assured, under my Ming rule, it is my Ming people, if my Ming people have no food, they deserve to be killed."

Qin Ming took five hundred people to travel this time, almost all of their backbone forces, these people formed a huge caravan to go to Mongolia to preach and sell horses, this time Cheng Xiaolian did not have much confidence in his heart, because he didn't know if these people could succeed, since history, nothing like this has happened.

Looking at the backs of their long journey, Rosen smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, these silvers can be regarded as wasted." ”

Cheng Xiaolian glanced at Rosen: "I specially rushed back to Chengdu to see him off, but I didn't want to hear you say these depressing words." ”

"These people are dedicated to preaching, how can they make a sound, those goods are half sold and half sent to others, but His Royal Highness exchanged 50,000 taels of silver for the peace of Sichuan and Shu, and this transaction is not a loss."
