With a dark face, Li Shan took out an envelope from his arms and handed it over, "Lingnan Road, Guangzhou Governor's Mansion, Persian Sea Ship, the route map has been drawn. If everything goes well, we can reach Tianzhu within a month."
Li Shan remembers this very clearly. When he was in primary school, he once read Journey to the West. His grandfather, a devout Buddhist, talked about Tang Sanzang's journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. Although he was admirable, he was not smart enough, because also in the Tang Dynasty, another monk traveled by sea from Guangzhou.
The ship set off and arrived in India in twenty days!
After the transaction was completed, Li Shan left with a face and took Zhu Ba to wander on the street.
"Da Lang, I really can't go to Pingkangfang today!"
Li Shan glanced at this guy speechlessly, "You are very lenient!"
Zhu Ba whispered: "The seventh uncle said that I will buy two maids to serve you in a few days."
That is the custom of the old society. I am a good student who grew up under the red flag... Li Shan wondered if he could pick the goods when he bought a maid. He couldn't find a little fairy like Xiaoman, but he couldn't find a crooked girl either.
Jujube?
But it is true that I cannot go to Pingkangfang. That day I called myself Li Bai, also known as Taibai...
After thinking about it, Li Shan simply returned to Zhujiagou. On the way, he was still thinking about today's events... Who would have thought that Du Ruhui would go to Dongshan Temple yesterday.
It seems that Du Ruhui didn't look very good yesterday... Li Shan smiled bitterly and said that his method was cunning, so it wouldn't happen to be Du Ruhui's head, right?
After returning to the village, Li Shan still had a sad look on his face. Zhu Wei, who had been waiting for news, saw this and sighed first, and then came up to persuade... The young men in the village were eager to pay the taxes when the soldiers were called.
, we will start selling Gewürztraminer tomorrow.
Li Shanhun listened for a while before he realized what he was doing, and said with a dry smile: "Then the monk promised, if nothing unexpected happens, Dongshan Temple will not be on the list of abolition."
Zhu Wei was stunned for a while, then he slapped his thigh and said happily: "Is that true? I'll go to the city tomorrow to find out!"
Doubts gradually grew in Li Shan's mind. What was the origin of Zhujiagou? How could the patriarch Zhu Wei find out so many days in advance that it was Xuanzang who was inspecting it, and he seemed very confident that the truth would be determined tomorrow.
Zhu Wei noticed something strange about Li Shan, "Da Lang, why are you so unhappy?"
"I met two people today at the Dazhu Temple." Li Shan squinted his eyes and looked at Zhu Wei, and asked tentatively: "One is Zuo Weili, the prince of the East Palace inspection, Wei Ting of Jingzhao Prefecture, and the other is Tian
I work as a lieutenant in Cefu, and I am Du Ruhui, the Du family in Jingzhao Prefecture."
Zhu Wei's expression changed and he asked carefully, but Li Shanhan was vague and half-truthful.
After all, he was a time traveler, and he was quite familiar with the history of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shan had already figured out everything on the way back to Zhujiagou.
Nowadays, none of the generals in Hebei are Liu Heitai's opponent, and even Li Shiji has been defeated miserably. Next, Qin King Li Shimin will definitely go to war. To put it darkly, Li Jiancheng hopes that his brother will suffer a few defeats at Liu Heitai's side.
As the second son, Li Shimin's status and prestige in the court were gained by his invincible military exploits, so he could not accept possible defeat.
Liu Heitai swept through Hebei, winning consecutive battles, and his troops were sharp. However, the troops in Guanzhong were insufficient. Li Shimin was determined not to use his own base to influence the Sixth Guard Army, and the Xuanjia cavalry went to face the enemy head-on.
Therefore, Tiance Mansion is trying to promote the dismantling of temples as soon as possible to make up for the lack of military resources. This is also very important to Tiance Mansion itself... Anyway, this matter was ordered by the sage Li Yuan.
But what Tiance Mansion wants to do, Dong Palace will definitely do the opposite. Li Shimin is determined to forge ahead, and Li Jiancheng will show grace and magnanimity. This time it is just a small collision... But the problem is that Dongshan Temple has sadly become
target, and Li Shan sadly jumped into this vortex.
"The King of Qin is not only a general of heaven, but also a minister, and he is the prime minister. How can he care about such trivial matters." Zhu Wei smiled and shook his head, "Da Lang thinks too much."
After glancing at Zhu Wei, whose eyes were flickering, and then at his mother, Zhu, who came out of the inner room at some unknown time, Li Shan did not refute. He was sure that the seventh uncle in front of him was by no means an ordinary farmer.
Ordinary villagers would not understand this complicated and unspeakable imperial situation, let alone that Li Shimin also served as Shangshu Ling... Of course, ordinary people would not know that Xuanzang was responsible for inspecting temples and other matters.
Qibo was not an ordinary farmer, and obviously, Zhu was not an ordinary Lingnan woman. Li Shan couldn't help but think about it... Lingnan was the main place where prisoners and their families were exiled in the Sui Dynasty.
And Li Dewu himself was exiled to Lingnan, so it seemed logical to find someone with the same problem to form a family...
"Don't worry, Dalang. If the monk doesn't cause trouble, other temples will be demolished. How can big men like King Qin see Dongshan Temple?"
Li Shan nodded slightly. Big names like Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, and even Du Ruhui should not be stingy enough to seek bad luck in Zhujiagou.
Putting all these troubles aside, Li Shan said with a smile: "After today, with Xuanzang's praise, Dongshan Temple will definitely become famous... Zen Master Wuchao came east with the scriptures, Qi Bo, don't laugh, don't laugh.
"
Zhu Wei still couldn't help but laugh, "You are a narrow-minded person who pretends to be a mute servant. If you are exposed..."
"Uncle Mute can't speak anyway. If you have guests coming, you just need to close your eyes and rest your mind. Xuanzang and I have agreed that Dongshan Temple has a new translation of the Diamond Sutra and the Heart Sutra. Someone in the city will definitely come to seek sutras..."
Zhu Wei stopped laughing and continued: "No wonder you have not allowed Gewürztraminer to be sold in the East and West markets before. This was your original intention."
"The eminent monk came east with scriptures and placed orders in Dongshan Temple to sell the secret Gewürztraminer at such a low price!"
Zhu Wei looked at Mr. Zhu, cupped his hands and said, "Such a thought, seeing the big from the small, will definitely not be a common thing in the future."
Li Shan had a serious look on his face. If he sold the tofu noodle in the East and West markets, he could earn a lot of money. Even just paying back taxes would not be enough.
Attaching the name of an eminent monk of Dongshan Temple or a sutra can either make you famous or maximize your profits.
What's more, if Dongshan Temple is not abolished and the villagers do not need to pay taxes, the money from selling tofu...
As soon as Li Shan thought of this, Zhu Wei made the final decision: "This matter is all at your discretion. The profit from the Gewürztraminer belongs to you alone."
He really wanted to agree, but unfortunately his mother, who puts justice first, was by his side. Li Shan looked at Zhu Wei's expression carefully and wondered if the old man deliberately chose to talk about this when his mother was around.
"The seventh uncle was joking. "Historical Records" says: It is better to get Jibu Yinuo to get a hundred catties of gold." Li Shanqiang said with a smile: "The so-called thousand gold and a promise were agreed on that day, how can the boy regret it?"
Zhu Wei stroked his beard and praised, then turned to look at Mr. Zhu, "Even so, if we investigate tomorrow, Dongshan Temple will not be abolished... In the future, you two will need money to settle down, build a house, and buy land, so be it, no matter how much it is,
, Dalang shares 50% of the profit."
Li Shan hid aside, watching the two people rejecting each other back and forth, thinking about whether to build a courtyard if he wanted to build a new house...
Finally, after Li Shan's persuasion, it was decided that the Li family would get 30% of the profit and the remaining 70% would be used for other purposes in the future.
Zhu Wei sighed: "Saving a human life, resolving the crisis in the temple, and... such a great favor, Da Lang is waiting for you. The day you say you want to take concubines and enjoy sex, I will choose two charming girls for you!"
Li Shan was stunned for a moment, then bowed solemnly, "I dare not refuse the gift given by the elder."
