Chapter 69: Mountain Rain is Coming (Part II)

Some people who had been released began to walk outside the crowd, some went home to be busy, and those who had nothing to do went outside to find a high place to watch the excitement. Today is a day to commemorate the Bodhisattva's compassion, and it is not good to occupy a place inside so that people from outside cannot enter, and people put away their usual anger.

Someone gave up their position, and the three of Xiuxiu finally squeezed to the edge of the pool, where Huang Tianbiao had just finished being released, and several clan servants stood by the car with their heads held high, waiting for Huang Tianbiao to come over and talk.

Huang Tianbiao flicked the new satin clothes on his body, slowly walked to the side of the car, looked around, and then reached into his arms and took out a stack of papers, and said loudly: "Today is a good day, the Bodhisattva is merciful, I will make these cars a good catch, and also show the Bodhisattva that we are a person who worships the Buddha!" ”

The two monks over there had already finished chanting the scriptures, and after listening to Huang Tianbiao's words, Xiao Shami whispered to Master Zhiyun: "This rammed goods are a rich man, obviously he is here to show off, what to say to worship the Buddha!" ”

Venerable Zhiyun lightly recited the Buddha's name and said to the little novice: "Monks should not do anything! ”

The little novice didn't dare to say any more, but his expression was unconvinced.

Huang Tianbiao flicked the paperwork in his hand, and continued: "Just releasing a few carts of fish and turtles doesn't show how sincere we are, I also have five degrees here, and I give them to the mage, so I am a true and good person!" ”

After speaking, he raised the degree in his hand to Master Zhiyun and his apprentice.

Master Zhiyun was stunned for a while, and the little novice coughed before he came to his senses, and hurriedly proclaimed the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, this donor has this kind deed, and he will be rich and prosperous for life in the future!" ”

Huang Tianbiao said: "What I want is your words, isn't it just asking for wealth to spend so much!" ”

Xiao Shami was already so excited that he couldn't sit still, here he was the first to follow Master Zhiyun, and with the blank degree, he didn't have to take the lead, and since then he has become a monk!

Seeing the mage nodding, the little novice jumped up, trotted to Huang Tianbiao's side, and kept chanting the Buddha: "The donor is a great good person at a glance, and he will be rich and noble for life, and he will be rich for life!" ”

looked like he was grateful, and he forgot that he was still slandering just now.

Seeing Xiao Shami's eyes stretching out his hand to him, Huang Tianbiao put his hand away, glared and said, "Why are you here, a little monk?" I still have something to say to the great monk! ”

Xiao Shami withdrew his hand stupidly and clasped his hands together: "The donor, please." ”

Huang Tianbiao nodded: "It's about the same." ”

As he spoke, he followed the little novice towards Master Zhiyun.

Xiuxiu saw it by the pool and snorted: "This Huang Tianbiao, since he has money, he doesn't know what his surname is!" Now like this, he is obviously an outsider, where does he still look like a court official! ”

Duan Yunjie smiled and didn't speak. Xu Ping knew that Huang Tianbiao was not a way to do this, and was trying to find a job for him in the sugar business, as a place for him to settle down, and also save others from gossip.

Li Erlang watched Huang Tianbiao walk to Master Zhiyun with envy in his eyes, and couldn't help but admire: "People's wealth is really brought out of my mother's belly, this Huang County Lieutenant was originally just a small leader of barbarians, although he also managed a few clansmen, but he couldn't eat and dress well." Since Natu became a petty official, it has been like a day by day, and now he has become one of the few rich and noble people in Yongzhou, no matter how big the barbarian leader is, he can't match him! ”

While helping Lin Apeng release all kinds of fish and shrimp, Li's second sister-in-law said to her husband angrily: "You don't have to look at other people's eyes!" Don't listen to people, Linyuan Xianyu is better to retreat and make a net, now it's not at home, there is no land, no industry, no strength, no place to use. Nowadays in the sugar business, you will receive a penny if you make a penny, as long as you change your own problems and stop gambling, you will naturally have your own wealth if you are willing to make efforts. It's all about doing work, why can't you compare to Brother Lin? It's not that I'm lazy! ”

Hearing his wife complaining, Li Erlang didn't dare to answer. Speaking of conscience, he worked hard enough in the sugar business, but there was a forestry industry around him, and he couldn't compare with it, so he had to let his mother-in-law say a few words.

Iron Hammer and Qiao Niang squatted on the edge of the pool, carrying a small bucket to the pool and slowly pouring the small fish they caught into the pool, watching them shake happily in the water, laughing happily together.

They are at a carefree age, and they have been in Yongzhou from Fujian for two years, so they are already familiar with the environment here. In Yongzhou, you won't be hungry anymore, you won't have to covet other people's toys, and you will go to school. Childhood sweethearts, two little guesses, they grow up happily, and they don't have to repeat the life of their parents.

Xiuxiu carried a small bucket and cautiously came to the edge of the pool, slowly pouring the fish into the pool. These are all small fish, colorful, odd-shaped, and varied.

One-sided, Xiuxiu shook her head and said to Liu Xiaomei beside her: "It's a pity that the officials are still not busy and can't come over to see these good fish I prepared." How pretty! ”

Liu Xiaomei couldn't help laughing: "I'm afraid the officials are not interested, this is all your little girl's mind, where will the officials understand?" ”

"Could it be that you're not a little girl?" As soon as Xiuxiu spoke, she remembered, "Alas, I forgot that you will marry Brother Gao in a few days, and you will not be a girl anymore-"

Liu Xiaomei smiled slightly, her face flushed, and helped Xiuxiu.

After pouring a small bucket, Xiuxiu and Liu Xiaomei got up, but found Duan Yunjie standing next to the car, looking into the distance in a daze, her eyes a little confused.

Xiuxiu was about to ask Duan Yunjie what she was looking at, but Liu Xiaomei gently tugged at her and pointed in the direction Duan Yunjie was looking.

"Lord Shen-"

As soon as the three words came out, Xiuxiu hurriedly covered her mouth. Duan Yunjie is different from the two little girls who can't hide their words in their hearts, they are heavy-minded, but they can't say whatever they want.

As a model of the barbarians supported by Xu Ping, Shen Tong has developed rapidly in recent years, and the industry below has basically been integrated with the sugar cane business, which is the place where the most benefits have been obtained in the local area. Everything in the barbarian area is still very primitive, with money there is everything, including land, including population, Shen Dong's strength has long surpassed most of Tuzhou, and even the surname Shen has become a big surname in a few years.

Shen Chengrong is no longer the shabby appearance of Xu Ping when he went to Ruhe County to see him, dressed in silk and satin, dressed brightly, and compared with Huang Tianbiao. In fact, he is now just like Huang Tianbiao, most of the time his mind is on doing business, and he and Huang Tianbiao have the largest share of the business of several barbarian chieftains on the periphery of Taipingzhai. As for the affairs of the mountain, it has already been completely handed over to the eldest son, so don't worry about it.

Ah Shen was kidnapped by Huang Conggui, and he has been going around several Tuzhou in the mountains, so he doesn't want to come back, and Shen Chengrong doesn't have the face to meet Duan Fang. In the past two years, Duan Fang has risen step by step, and Shen Chengrong can't wait to recognize this relative, but he has never had a chance. Duan Yunjie was raised by his father, and he understood his mind better than anyone else, knowing that Shen Dong was his maternal grandfather's family, but he could only look at it from a distance.

Like Huang Tianbiao, he was released, and Shen Chengrong also gave up a blank space to Master Zhiyun. Seeing that Huang Tianbiao was still there talking to the two monks for so long, Shen Chengrong was curious and walked up.

Seeing Shen Chengrong coming over with a blank degree, Huang Tianbiao said hatefully: "Lord Shen, don't give it to these two monks, they are very greedy!" I'm so! ”

Shen Chengrong said: "What's wrong? County Lieutenant Huang, do they still collect additional money? ”

Huang Tianbiao was stunned: "That's not it, but the discount is too strong!" ”

Seeing that Shen Chengrong didn't understand, he continued: "Tell me, I gave up the five degrees and asked four people in the Du clan to follow as monks, but they just said that they could only save two people, and they would make a discount in half, how to do this business?" ”

Hearing this, Shen Chengrong shook his head with a wry smile. Huang Tianbiao has done a lot of business in the past two years, and his mouth is full of business experience, and he opens his mouth to discount, how can he bear it in business?

But can this kind of thing be done in business? Now there are only two monks, and you have to spend four of your own people at once, won't Jinguang Temple become the family temple of the Huang family?

After the release of several large households, it was not early, and the crowd began to subside, and many people ate some wine and food in the nearby store to fill their stomachs and go down the mountain.

The two liquor shops made a lot of money, and the owner smiled from ear to ear. Fortunately, with the dispute with the layman a few days ago, they had a heart, and today they are all vegetarian dishes, so as not to have another dispute.

Under the teashop shed, Qiu Niangzi took out a few pennies and put it on the table, and said to Liu Dahu on the side: "Okay, the crowd is slowly dispersed, and we will also release the Bodhisattva." ”

Liu Dahu stood up, a little impatient: "I only went at this time, and I didn't have to see the excitement!" ”

"I'm here to pay homage to the Bodhisattva, sincerely respect, what are you looking at?"

Listening to Qiu Niangzi's words, Liu Dahu pursed his lips. Which Bodhisattva is it, he Liu Dahu is not familiar with it, how good it is to eat a few carp by himself, but he bought it and put it back in the water, this Bodhisattva is also bored.

Qiu Niangzi shook her head, didn't say anything, and walked forward.

I chose such a product, in front of the Bodhisattva, what can I complain about? Good or bad, the days can only go on like this, without Liu Dahu's signboard, why did she open a store in Taipingzhai?

Women believe in Buddhism a lot, and Qiu Niangzi's life experience is particularly pious, she can not believe that everyone in the world, including the man who shares the bed with her, is convinced of the Buddha and Bodhisattva. I am a cow and a horse in this life, just in exchange for a life of wealth and glory in the next life, who can give her this kind of comfort?

Coming to the lake against the flow of people, Qiu Niangzi silently recited a scripture before signaling to Liu Dahu.

Liu Dahu waited impatiently, lifted the bucket, and poured a few carp into the pond. I muttered secretly in my heart, this small pool, I don't know how many big fish have been put into it today, if you go inside at night and put a net, tsk, it can withstand the wind and rain of the Zuojiang fisherman for a month.

The fish was upside down, and just about to turn around, Qiu Niangzi sighed: "Isn't that your sister over there?" Now that you've met, it's better to come forward and say hello. She got married next month, and I had a few pieces of jewelry ready. ”

Liu Dahu is a little weak-hearted, since he tricked his sister back to Zhongzhou last time and almost gave her her life, he no longer dares to face his sister face to face.

Qiu Niangzi sighed: "After all, they are the same mother's compatriots, why don't you just stop contacting each other for the rest of your life?" Her good things are approaching, and many etiquettes are indispensable for you, who is an elder brother, if you don't take this opportunity to untie the previous knot, she will have no chance to become her own child in the future. ”

Liu Dahu knew that Qiu Niangzi was right, but he was still afraid in his heart, shrunk his neck and said: "I just want to see you, let's wait again, now that there are many people, where can she take her out." ”

"Grinding, our store is closed, how much less business is a day? Let's get the talk out of the way, so we can go back and open the door for business." ”

Liu Dahu said: "Women are small-bellied chicken intestines, and today the whole city is coming to release them, how can there be any business?" Alas, by the way, you said that Director Yao didn't come to release the animal, but he asked for leave, what did he do sneakily? ”

"Which one cares about him? It's all thanks to him that we have where we are today, so let's not see itβ€”"

Qiu Niangzi sighed, forgot what she just said, and walked to the tea shop with Liu Dahu. knew that Director Yao and his gang were doing illegal and forbidden things, greedy for enjoyment, but they couldn't muster up the courage to denounce it. It all depends on Liu Dahu and Gao Daquan as a backer, even if he is involved in the future, there is a way out.

The sun rose in mid-air and began to heat up, and the few officials sitting by the pool grew impatient.

Xu Ping saw that the crowd had become sparse, and said to Han Zong beside him: "It's almost time, why don't we disperse, and by this time, the heart of the Bodhisattva has also arrived." ”

Han Zong said respectfully: "Shangguan is right. ”

As soon as he stood up, Gao Daquan hurriedly came in the distance, crossed his hands in front of Xu Ping and said, "Official, I'm ready there, and I can start construction tomorrow!" ”

Xu Ping nodded: "You came just in time, I also have something to say to Master Zhiyun." Come with me, go and talk to the Master, and that's all for today. ”

Over there, Master Zhiyun saw Xu Ping get up and walk towards him, and hurriedly greeted him. He bargained with Huang Tianbiao for a long time, and Shen Chengrong was on the side to help, so that Huang Tianbiao agreed to only save his two clansmen, but he wanted to spare the other two clansmen to follow the practice, and then find a way to do it later.

Master Zhiyun has been practicing for decades, where has he done such a thing as a businessman? This negotiation made him sweat in a hurry, and his bald head was shining in the sun.

Huang Tianbiao was still a little dissatisfied, and muttered to Shen Chengrong, blaming him for not helping himself.

In front of Xu Ping, Master Zhiyun sang the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, the old man is sluggish!" ”

"Dharma monks don't have to be bound by common rituals." Xu Ping returned the salute and pointed to Gao Daquandao, "Just now my subordinate came to report that the road repair has been prepared, and the construction can start tomorrow." ”

"Amitabha, the donor has a heart!"

The old monk said a word about the Buddha, Xu Ping listened impatiently and said goodbye to him.

Master Zhiyun hurriedly stopped: "How can the official leave like this? The old man prepared a vegetarian meal there, and he had to enjoy it all before leaving. ”

Xu Ping was in the mood to go up the mountain to eat fast, and repeatedly excused himself. However, the old monk was dead, so he grabbed Xu Ping's sleeve and didn't let him go, so he had to go to his cottage and sit down.

Xu Ping was helpless, and said in his heart, isn't this old monk afraid that he can't put the food away, and if he can't eat it, he will become rancid? I couldn't bear Master Zhiyun's courtesy, so I had to agree.

With several officials and accompanying sergeants from Taipingzhai, as Master Zhiyun walked a few steps, Xu Ping always felt that something was wrong. When I got to the foot of the mountain, I remembered it and asked Venerable Zhiyun: "Today is the day to commemorate the Bodhisattva, why haven't you seen Huang Jushi all the time?" ”

Master Zhiyun sighed: "It's not a coincidence, yesterday a guest from Qinzhou brought a message, Huang Jushi had an urgent matter to deal with, and he didn't have the opportunity to participate in today's release conference, but it was a blessing!" ”

After speaking, he sighed again and again, looking very pity.

At this time, on a cargo ship in Zuojiang, Huang Wei looked at the two directors of Fang Yao in front of him, as well as several other sturdy men, and said with a solemn face: "How many silver coins have been scattered, whether the matter is successful or not, just look at tonight!" You must not be sloppy, as long as this thing is done tonight, it will bring you a lifetime of wealth! Make endless money, can't be an official! ”
