CHAPTER XXIV
At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, I finally waited for Teacher Shang's call: "Ziran, I am still in Fanshan Zen Temple, can you find a way to scrape together 200,000 yuan in cash, and then contact Brother Qu and ask him to arrange an off-road vehicle to send you to me"! Call me when I finish it! I'll be waiting for you here! I didn't have much verbosity when I received the call, I promised to do it immediately, and asked him to wait patiently for my call!
Although I was guilty of dripping in my heart: What's the matter, I need so much cash at once! But I know that Mr. Shang must have something urgent to do to use the money so urgently. At that time, 200,000 yuan was not a decimal number, and ordinary people really couldn't take it out, even Mr. Shang, I knew him too well, and I couldn't keep money in my hand at all. I joined the work relatively early, and I was more frugal on weekdays, but after my fame gradually grew, in addition to the fixed salary, I also had a lot of performance income, so 200,000 yuan is not too difficult for me. Hanging up the phone, I quickly grabbed a few bank passbooks and went out. After tossing for several hours and running to several banks, I was able to get the money together, but fortunately there was a driver from Commander Qu Fu who drove with me! Otherwise, I am a woman with so much cash! It would be strange if nothing happened!
When I arrived at the Fanshan Monastery in Hubin City, I saw that Teacher Shang was already waiting for me at the gate! There were four people standing next to me, and Teacher Shang introduced me to the identities of the other four people: The first was the director of the Hubin City Land Management Bureau, whose surname was Gao! The second was the head of Fanshan District, Hubin City, whose surname was E! The other two were the secretary and head of the local village in the area where the Fanshan Temple was located! The director Gao was a student of Teacher Shang. About 40 years old, at first glance, he is very shrewd and capable! (I think in my heart, I must have obtained a lot of Master Shang's true biography) After the introduction! Teacher Shang said: I just told all the leaders! I also invited the leaders of my family to come over, and I also asked him to bring the money over, and I want him to bring it over, and I want to make it all her private money! Hahaha! You just said that I want a piece of land to refer to casually, not money, or symbolically give a few thousand yuan, that is because Cheng Xin is unwilling to give it to me! Director Gao said: That's not what I mean! Teacher Shang, the land you want is basically a barren wilderness, a bare mountainous area, and it really can't be counted as money, not to mention that you ask for it, even if ordinary people ask for it, it is basically given for nothing! The head of the district and the village secretary and village chief also echoed this fact! Teacher Shang asked me to take out the 200,000 yuan that had been wrapped in paper and give it to him, and walked over to Director Gao and said: You are my student! You know my temper and character! This is 200,000 yuan in cash! Is it clean money! Or did I borrow it from a woman I didn't have a book for! I'm going to settle on that piece of mountainous land! What should I do with the formalities? I'm going to trouble you all! This stunned those people! This piece of land is not worth 200,000 yuan! No one wants to find money for nothing! But Director Gao knows the temper and character of his teacher. I don't dare to say anything more: Okay, teacher, I will definitely do what you ask! Do you have any other requirements? Teacher Shang smiled and said: "Don't ask for anything else! Now there are no more! My teacher has come to your territory, so you have to invite me to dinner! The head of the Hubei district said: Mr. Shang! We have already booked the best hotel in Hubin City! You see when it will pass! Teacher Shang said: I have a suggestion! There are a few people present today! There must be no one missing at night! Aren't these two village secretaries and village chiefs here? It should be no problem to go to their house for dinner in the evening! The village secretary and village chief replied with joy: "That's a good idea!" Let's go and prepare now! Teacher Shang said: Don't be busy! Then he turned to Director Gao and the head of the Hubei district and said: The two leaders have a lot of official business, so I won't bother much here! You should go back first! We will see you at the village secretary's house in the evening! Then he turned to the secretary and village chief and said: Can you trouble the two land bodhisattvas to accompany us to that mountain area! I specially borrowed Commander Qufu's off-road vehicle, and it should be no problem to deal with this kind of mountain road! Hahaha
My monk teacher, together with the secretary and village chief of Fanshan Village, sat along the rugged and winding mountain road in a Toyota SUV, strictly speaking, it could not be called a road turn, and it took more than an hour to reach the land that Teacher Shang fancied.
What unfolded before my eyes was a bare barren mountain field. Many plots of land are also quarryed in the east and west, like a leprosy head, basically no green plants!
The only thing I could see was the Yangtze River and the big and small lakes on the mountain bag.
Teacher Shang asked the secretary how much the village chief had about the area, and they replied that it was about 360 acres! Teacher Shang said:
"That's good, it doesn't matter if it's a little more, even if I take advantage of you, just go through the procedures according to 360 acres"!
The secretary and the village chief hurriedly said: "Don't say that you take advantage of us, shame us to death! What you have given us is already a sky-high price." We don't know how to thank you"!
"Do you know how much these 200,000 yuan have to do with our poor country"!
Teacher Shang said, "That's what you think about!
"In addition, I will trouble the two land bodhisattvas again! This land is fenced off with barbed wire, and no further development and logging is allowed in it!
Please organize some villagers to plant all kinds of green plants on this land, and return it to green mountains and green waters!"
"I can pay for this fee"!
The village secretary and the village chief hurriedly said, "Mr. Shang, don't let you pay again." That's more than enough for you"!
"This little thing you ordered is not a matter for our villagers"!
"What's more, you are doing a great good deed for our green mountains and clear waters. Let you dig out the line again! We really don't want to go!"
I could see from the side that the words of the village secretary and the village chief were indeed from the bottom of my heart!
Teacher Shang said: "To do things is to pay attention to the rules"!
"One yard is one yard! I specially asked my woman to take cash for you to buy land! How to spend it? How to use it? You can do it yourself!"
"What I just confessed! I only ask the two of you to arrange for the villagers to do their work as required! I will arrange another person to cash out their hard-earned money!"
"One day at a time"!
As soon as Mr. Shang's words came out, I saw tears flashing in the eyes of the village secretary and village chief!
Dinner was arranged at the secretary's house. Speaking of which, as the number one leader in the village and the real emperor of the soil, he should be very rich! But when I saw the house at home, the furnishings were very ordinary, and even looked dilapidated! I can imagine what the situation of ordinary farmers is!
Among the guests who came in the evening, there were two more!
One is the executive mayor of Binhu City, surnamed Xie! The other is the secretary of the Fanshan District Party Committee, surnamed Yan!
As soon as Mr. Shang saw this meeting, he said to Director Gao: "What are you doing? Alarm so many leaders! Turn a teacher-student meeting into an officialdom party!"
The head of the Hubei district hurriedly came out to play a round: "Mr. Shang! You are wrong to blame our Director Gao! Mayor Xie and Secretary Yan were invited by me!"
"Who in the entire province of W and the provincial capital Jiangcheng City has not heard of your great name! Can you come to our small place, will we not be able to meet you?"
Teacher Shang has said this:
"I came here this time at the invitation of the senior monks of Fanshan Zen Temple to meet me"!
"I came here yesterday, and the monks taught day and night, not to mention reading ten years of books!"
Everyone saw Teacher Shang say this!
They were all shocked!
You must know that this senior monk of Fanshan Temple is a well-known master at home and abroad!
Those who seek to see are like carp crossing the river, but few can see it!
What's more, take the initiative to invite you to talk about a day and a night!
Looking at Binhu City, no matter the officialdom or shopping mall, no one has this special encounter!
Teacher Shang said again: "
I really didn't want to alarm you, I didn't even want to see this student, I was afraid of disturbing you!"
"But when I came here this time, I feel that you are a good place with beautiful mountains and beautiful waters! The fact that the monks of Fanshan Zen Temple can cultivate themselves and realize the Tao here is a testament to this, and it is also a blessing for your place!"
"So I suddenly had the idea to borrow a treasure here!
I saw that the room full of leaders listened to what Mr. Shang said, and everyone was overjoyed!
All kinds of beautiful words come out one after another...!
I know that Mr. Shang is most disgusted by this kind of false and unjust social occasions!
At this time, he said to me, "Zi Ran, did I ask you to bring a box of wine?"
I listened to it!
But immediately reacted!
"Bring it, put it in the car?" Teacher Shang said to Commander Qu Fu's driver:
"You go, bring a box of 6 bottles of Moutai in the car"!
The driver promised to go out immediately, and after a while, he really came over with a box of Moutai wine!
Six whole bottles!
Teacher Shang bowed his hand to everyone: "Leaders, I'm really sorry to disturb you! What do you mean by coming? I don't need to say! I know it in my heart!"
"I'm an idle man now, with no power or money in my hands"!
"What about the money to buy the land? I borrowed it from this little lady who didn't have anything to do with it!"
After saying that, I laughed out loud!
"But since the land where I retire is ready to be arranged here!
"I don't have the ability to do anything else! Blowing this piece of feng shui treasure land of mine is my own business! What do you say?"
All of you here are capable and shrewd people, so how can you not hear the meaning of Teacher Shang's words! They came here just to use Teacher Shang's strength to attract investment! Then Teacher Shang said:
"I'm not going to talk nonsense, everyone knows that I don't stick to white wine except for the occasional tasting of red wine!
Feel free to do so!
I'll have a good meal of the green food of the secretary's house! I'll leave first when I'm full! I'll be a little out of business tomorrow morning!
Have fun...!
When everyone saw Teacher Shang say this, they all knew his temperament, and they could only follow him...!
On the way back, I quietly asked Mr. Shang:
"When did you tell me to bring wine?"
He laughed:
"You're stupid! When did Brother Qu get this in the car!
That's his standard!
I'm just taking the sheep by the hand!
Hahaha!
My brother has no other hobbies! Just take this sip! When I get interested, it's a booze! I tried to persuade him, but it didn't work! Then I'll help him digest a little!"
