Fang Zheng lived a leisurely and contented life, but Yizhi Temple became increasingly lively.
Originally it could only be regarded as a small tourist attraction in China, but now it has become a world-class tourist attraction under the promotion of old guys like Li Daguang and Yaman.
Even many foreigners don't know about those 5A-level scenic spots, but they only know Yizhi Temple. The purpose of coming to China is to see this magical temple.
Of course, Yizhi Temple did not disappoint them, and the unworldly scenery truly amazed people all over the world.
As its popularity grows, the monks of Yizhi Temple become busier and busier...
At the same time, the government has approached Fang Zheng many times, wanting to completely turn Yizhi Temple into a tourist attraction, and build a mountain gate at the foot of the mountain to sell tickets and so on.
However, they were all rejected by Fang Zheng.
"Donor, poor monk, this is really just a monastery. It's not a tourist attraction..." Fang Zheng looked at Qi Dongsheng, who had been promoted to mayor of Montenegro City, and said with a smile.
Qi Dongsheng said: "Abbot Fangzheng, look, behind you is Tongtian Mountain. I have already asked someone to take a look at Tongtian Mountain. There are also some good landscapes there, including waterfalls, ancient trees, and strange rocks. If you really design it well, this place
The scenery is no worse than those A-level scenic spots. But the problem now is that our Heishan City is too remote, let alone Songwu County. Without fame, there will be no tourists... I want to use Yizhi Temple
Popularity, circle them all, and then boost the business of other attractions. In this way, the surrounding villages can borrow power...
If we do this, it can be regarded as benefiting the local people. It is a great merit, don't you think?"
Fangzheng shook his head and said: "Donor, you can do whatever you want, but Yizhi Temple must not be included in the scenic area. A temple is just a temple, and if it is included in a scenic area and charges a fee, wouldn't that chill the hearts of pilgrims?"
Qi Dongsheng said: "Master, don't worry about this. There is absolutely no charge for visiting Yizhi Temple. Do you think this is okay?"
Fang Zheng said: "Then what happens after you leave?"
Qi Dongsheng was speechless...
Fangzheng's idea is very simple. He lives in a lonely mountain and a small wild forest. He has the final say on his own territory. He can grow garlic and do whatever he wants... Once it is included in the scenic area, it belongs to the local government.
If the land is destroyed, we will do whatever the government says we should do.
Those are completely two concepts...
What's more, even if Founder trusts Qi Dongsheng and puts Yizhi Temple into the scenic spot, how many years can Qi Dongsheng stay in Heishan City? If he is transferred one day, and if the new mayor has some ideas, what will happen to Yizhi Temple?
?
Hearing this, Qi Dongsheng also fell silent...
Seeing this, Fang Zheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said: "Donor, do you think this world is big?"
Qi Dongsheng was stunned and said: "It's big, why isn't it big? I'm not afraid of the master's joke. I haven't even been to half of China in my life. I'm talking about provinces, not counties and cities specifically."
Fang Zheng said: "The poor monk has never been there, but is it really big?"
Qi Dongsheng thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "If you think about it carefully, it's not that big. In today's society, airplanes and high-speed trains have gone everywhere. Master, why do you ask this?"
Fang Zheng put down the teacup and said, "Yes, the measurement using footsteps is very large. The measurement using technology is very small. Then, what about the measurement using the number of people?"
Qi Dongsheng immediately understood what Fang Zheng meant and said: "The earth looks big, but there are too many people, and the natural resources are almost saturated."
Fang Zheng looked up at the village in the distance and said: "When the poor monk was young, there was a forest over there. A stream flowed through the forest. In summer, you could bathe, catch fish, and frogs. There were several wild fruit trees in it.
, when autumn comes, the children will run over to pick..."
Qi Dongsheng also looked over and said: "Master, there is nothing we can do about this. Human beings will always sacrifice something in order to develop."
Fang Zheng shook his head and said: "Yes, it is understandable for human beings to use natural resources in order to survive. The law of nature is also that the weak eat the strong..."
Qi Dongsheng nodded accordingly.
At this moment, Fang Zheng slowly raised his head and said, "But nature has never taught us how to waste resources."
Qi Dongsheng was stunned and said: "Master, what do you mean by this?"
Fang Zheng stood up slowly, looked into the distance and said: "Over there is the scenic Changbai Mountain, over there is the scenic Songhua Lake, over there is the scenic Zhuque Mountain..."
Except for Changbai Mountain, the place Fang Zheng pointed to was not on this land. He just pointed in a general direction.
Fang Zheng mentioned more than a dozen scenic spots in one breath, and then turned around and asked Qi Dongsheng: "Aren't there enough scenic spots for people to travel for leisure? Do we have to deprive other living beings of their territory? People go to a few less places.
You can’t die, but if you occupy an extra piece of land, a large number of creatures will become extinct. Is this really a good thing?”
As soon as these words came out, Qi Dongsheng was stunned on the spot, and then said: "This..."
Fang Zheng said: "Donor, the poor monk knows that you are also doing it for the good of the local people. However, excessive development is not a good thing. Money is a good thing for people. But in the poor monk's opinion, money can sometimes be a jerk. He
It will make people lose their original intention and do anything for money. If you can open this mountain today, you can open that mountain tomorrow.
What to do with the bears, wolves, wild boars and other animals in the mountains? They all have to run deeper into the mountains. The resources in the mountains have become extremely difficult because there are more wolves and less meat. Now, fighting for their territory... Hey, give it
Let them leave some way to survive."
Hearing this, Qi Dongsheng sighed and said, "I didn't think carefully. I'll leave first."
Fangzheng clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, please go slowly."
Qi Dongsheng said goodbye and left...
After seeing off Qi Dongsheng, Fang Zheng clasped his hands together and pronounced a Buddhist chant to the mountains in the distance: "Amitabha..."
Then, Fang Zheng picked up the tea cup again, sipping the tea quietly, looking at the scenery, as if he had merged into nature. At that moment, he entered the state of Taoism again.
At the same time, Fang Zheng said to the system in his heart: "System, it's been so long, is it time for the poor monk to draw a lottery? The poor monk did not receive the last reward."
The system said: "Of course, you can draw a full reward now."
"So powerful? It seems like the poor monk didn't do anything, right?" Fang Zheng exclaimed.
"It's true that you didn't do anything, but don't forget that your medical skills are spreading, your carving skills are spreading, and your several good deeds in YN are still benefiting the local people... You have done a lot of things, and the settlement at that time
The merit was at that time. But, the merit is flowing slowly. Two months have passed and your merit has almost exceeded one million. How about it, are you surprised?" the system asked.
Fang Zheng was really shocked when he heard this: "So many?"
"Indeed, it's quite a lot. It takes more than a year and one million merits. If you continue, it won't take too long. In another ten thousand years, you will be able to return to secular life." The system congratulated happily.
