Chapter 237 Check me Buddha does not cross the poor (monthly ticket)
None of these people believe in Buddhism.
Qiu Zhitao Yi said righteously: "The lord's move is for the people of the world, and these rich monks should also contribute."
He Jinchao slapped the table excitedly and said, "Do it!"
One thousand monks, no matter how old or weak, would plant ten thousand acres of land. On average, each monk had to plant ten acres of land. They were all monks?
No need to think about it, there must be many slaves below to help them work.
"By the way, is there any Taoist in Hequ County?"
He Jinchao knew that the Buddhist and Taoist religions achieved unprecedented development in the middle of the Ming Dynasty.
"If you go back to the lord, you will be taken to Mongolia by the White Lotus Sect."
He Jinchao didn’t look at it carefully. Isn’t the White Lotus Sect the Old Mother Wusheng? Could it be that it was a Buddhist and Taoist practice?
"Tell me my order, and ask Gao Yigong to come over, bring all the cavalry, and now go out of the city to worship Buddha."
"yes."
A group of cavalry quickly sorted out their clothes and went out in a mighty manner.
As the cavalry marched, they kept coming and going.
Most of the villages passed by are disrepaired in years.
Some of the military forts everywhere are broken, and even people are pale and thin, but full of energy.
Many people in the fields were working. They used to do it for the landlord and Zheng Shoujie, but now they do it for He Jinchao.
The only difference is that He Jinchao exempted them from tax this year and only had to pay the rent for this year. It was said that the rent would be reduced in the year.
This has caused more hope for many military households.
I hope that He Jinchao can stay in Hequ for a long time, and everyone's life will get better in less than a few years.
People on the war horses roared by. They had not rode on horses for a long time and rolled up smoke and dust.
He Jinchao rode on his horse and looked at the temple from afar.
I have to say that the location is good, just like the Wang family compound, on the hillside, there is still water flowing through it.
The building with gray roof and red walls is even more charming.
It is in sharp contrast with the dilapidated houses in other places.
Perhaps only the homes of gentry such as Zheng Shouzhi can be decorated so luxuriously.
There are still many people working on the surrounding land. These people saw many war horses roaring over, and were so scared that they threw away their farm tools and ran towards the temple desperately.
"The Mongolian Tartars are coming to loot."
He Jinchao tied the reins and looked at the soldiers around him. When did the Mongols become as rich as the soldiers under his command?
One man and two horses are wearing armor?
Nowadays, most of the Mongolians outside the Great Wall are a bunch of poor and cowards, except for Altan's grandsons who are rich and cowards.
Even Lin Danhan couldn't beat him, and he became degenerate too quickly.
"Everyone says that the true Buddha is seen in the hidden temple." He Jinchao held up the horse whip and said, "I don't think this is the hidden temple either."
"Lord, only the unfamous temples have real monks. Most of them are fake monks, without certificates."
"Okay." He Jinchao laughed twice: "Then I just happened to help the Ming Dynasty reshape the rules so that the Buddha would not be disturbed by a group of fake monks by taking advantage of the opportunity to make money and defile the reputation of the pure one."
Jigui laughed twice and walked forward with He Jinchao.
He Jinchao saw too many dilapidated houses and straw huts. Seeing the magnificent temple, he couldn't help but say, "Do you know what three things monks do every day?"
"I don't know?"
Ji Gui glanced at He Jinchao and thought, could he be like Zhu Yuanzhang, who was so poor that he could not afford to eat, and went to the temple to be a monk?
But isn't he a postman?
He Jinchao held up the horse whip and smiled: "The monk only does three things every day, memorizing scriptures, exercising classes, and cleaning."
"The lord is really wise and wise, so they don't have time to farm the fields!"
"No, no, no, these are just three things on the surface." He Jinchao shook his head and smiled: "Reciting scriptures is to fool the rich people.
Cleaning is the money thrown away by the incense-picking (tourists).
It also requires very small tablets, merits, lotus lanterns for praying for blessings, talismans for praying for blessings, things that make wishes, such as pendants.
The most important thing is to do rituals.”
"Oh, there are so many types of money collected, I really have never heard of it!"
Jigui was not interested in Buddhist affairs. He used to only worship the Confucius Temple. After he learned to tell fortunes, he no longer believed anything.
"What I'm talking about is just the tip of the iceberg." He Jinchao put away his whip: "In short, I will not save my poor man!"
Jigui tied the reins and looked at He Jinchao in surprise.
The lord, he just sees things thoroughly!
"how?"
Hearing He Jinchao’s question, Ji Gui pursed his lips: “The lord’s words are always thought-provoking and memorable.”
"Hey, my dog-headed military advisor speaks nicely." He Jinchao laughed after he finished speaking.
Jigui didn't expect that he would become He Jinchao's military advisor, even though he added the word "dog head" in front of it.
But among the three staff members, this is a qualitative leap. After all, I took the initiative to surrender to He Jinchao.
"Thank you lord."
Jigui didn't care at all. Ordinary people want to get a verbal nickname from He Jinchao, but they can't even ask for it.
By dividing the land, the hearts of all soldiers will be able to be united. If the hearts of most of the people in Hequ County are gained, the lord will be rampant in Shanxi.
Even after the imperial court made a move, the official army entered Shanxi would not work.
Since the temple gate was discovered, it was closed directly, indicating that there were monks and soldiers.
There are also many monk slaves who have never run into the temple and run away, fearing that they will be killed by the soldiers.
Seeing this, Gao Yigong immediately shouted: "I'll surround me."
"Rareless, how could you be so rude in front of the Buddha's door!"
"Captain, they won't open the door."
He Jinchao glared at Gao Yigong and said loudly:
"Today we are here to burn incense. How can we make the move to encircle the temple?
If the door did not open within a quarter of an hour, it would burn it directly, which would be considered as burning incense to the Buddha."
After hearing this, Gao Yigong laughed twice and immediately shouted loudly: "Have you heard it clearly? Let me repeat the captain's words."
"yes."
The neat shouts of hammer bandits echoed at the foot of the mountain.
In the temple, several chubby monks hurriedly went to the presidency, and the group of people at the foot of the mountain really spoke harsh words in front of the Buddha.
"Abbot, this is He Jinchao, the rebel who occupied Hequ, known as the chief in charge of the 800,000 rebel army in Shaanxi.
In Shanxi, even the government army can't cure him. Why are you looking at our small temple?"
"Yes, Senior Brother is right, what should we do?"
"What's the matter?" The abbot sat up from the cushion: "Since he is coming to burn incense, he will open the door to welcome guests. How can he keep it from thousands of miles away?"
"Abbot, this door cannot be opened. We still have three hundred monk soldiers, who can rely on the mountain to guard it."
"That's right, you must never open the door."
The abbot took the Zen stick and walked forward slowly: "It's a blessing, not a disaster, it's a disaster, it's a disaster, it's a good thing!
When I saw this hammer bandit, why did he come?"
