Chapter 1228: Nanshan Temple is rebuilt and digs up strange treasures
Although there is no silver tael in the neighboring counties, there are people, each worker can get 2 taels of silver per month, but it is a big temptation, the idle people of the four counties quickly gathered more than 8o people, and the gods and counties are very few people to work, even so, the construction site of the road is still overcrowded.

The prefects of the four counties all came to ask Gu Zhixian where the money came from, why Shenwu County was so rich, and some even wanted to borrow silver from Shenwu County. Of course, Gu Zhixian will not lend it easily, because there are Hu clans in every county, and it is not his turn to borrow silver, besides, the borrowed silver is easy to have accidents, Gu Zhutong is very clear.
The abbot of Nanshan Temple, Void, had long learned that there was a huge amount of money in Shenwu County, and he wanted to rebuild the temple for a long time, but the silver was not enough. Although the silver that came from his own fundraising is more than 1oo taels, but Nanshan Temple is too huge, although there are not many monks now, but the temple is not small, and it is a mountain road, which requires a huge amount of silver. The abbot of the void, seeing that the new magistrate of the Divine Objects County had such courage, the Void thought in his heart, if only the new magistrate supported Nanshan Temple.
The void also knows that if the official money is used to build the temple, it will have to go through layers of approval, and I am afraid that a county will not be able to call the shots. So, the abbot of the void first found the prefect Wang Kexin: "Lord Wang, the poor monk has something to ask for, and I hope that Lord Wang will give it to you." Wang Kexin was very strange, a monk from Nanshan Temple, who was not on his own ground, was a temple in Shenwu County, so he came to beg for himself.
"It doesn't hurt if the Void Master just says it, if I have the ability to do it, I'll do it for you, if you can't do it, you don't have to go to your heart." "Lord Wang, our Nanshan Temple is old and in disrepair for many years, I want to renew it, do you think it's okay?" Wang Kexin said with a smile: "Master of the Void, it's a joke, your construction of the temple has nothing to do with the prefect, and even if you use gold and silver to pave the ground, it has nothing to do with us, why do you need to ask me, hehe." Void said: "Lord Wang, I know that the prefect does not have this expenditure, and the amount of silver required is also a large amount, but Shenwu County has it, can you tell Gu Zhixian and ask him to donate a silver tael, we will be grateful, and we will definitely record your name in the merit book of Nanshan Temple."
Wang Kexin understood, the road construction in Shenwu County, he knew that Shenwu County was rich, so he hit the idea of Shenwu County, and he also wanted to make a little, but there was no clear name, if Shenwu County built a temple for Nanshan Temple, it would be a place where he could make money. Wang Kexin: "Uncle Void, this matter is more troublesome, the road construction in Shenwu County is not the official silver, it is the income from the sale of land, according to the law of the Sui Dynasty, as long as it is not the imperial grain and national tax, the rest of the silver is independent of the government, this is not for me to say, however, I can ask you."
As soon as the void heard this, he had an idea, and today he learned that as long as it was not the imperial grain and national tax, or he had the final say, it would be better to ask Gu Zhixian directly, so it would be redundant. The void said goodbye to Wang Kexin, returned to Shenwu County, and found Gu Zhutong: "Master Gu, I didn't expect that you are such a meritorious person, not long after you came to Shenwu County, you presided over the construction of four official roads, which is for the benefit of the people, and your merits will go down in history", Gu Zhutong smiled when he heard it, he was not so noble, he was just to make money, and he wanted to say that his name would go down in history, but it was a bit too much. However, he is still willing to listen to good words, and seeing that the void flatters him, Gu Zhutong still likes it very much.
"Master of the Void, you are here to transform the fate, you can say, how much silver do you want, I will support a little incense money in my personal capacity, it is still okay", the void is smiling: "Lord Gu, I am here to transform the fate, but a lot of money, we want to rebuild the temple, we need 1ooo thousand taels of silver, do you see how much you can give?" ”。 Gu Zhutong was dumbfounded when he heard this, the feeling is that the void monk is a lion's big mouth, Gu Zhutong thought about it: If you support 1ooo million taels of silver, it is not impossible, on the account of the county government, there are still 2ooo million taels of silver, why not donate a piece to Nanshan Temple, and make a merit yourself?
"Master of the Void, this matter, it's easy to say, it's hard to say", Void: "Why? Gu Zhutong: "You don't know the situation of the county government, there are indeed 2ooo taels of silver in the county, and I also want to donate to you, but you also know that this donation is a donation, and I am not alone in the final say. ”。
As soon as the void heard that there was a door, the silver of this market was known, and the government rules and regulations of the silver were divided into half when they met, since Gu Zhixian promised himself 2ooo million taels of silver, it was a rebate of 1ooo million, as long as Nanshan Temple had 1ooo million taels of silver, he could rebuild the temple, regardless of whether he had a kickback or not, he was a person outside the world, and he couldn't manage worldly things.
"Lord Gu, it's good to say, as long as the county government donates silver taels to Nanshan Temple, everything proves that our Nanshan Temple will issue it, as long as the adults donate 1ooo million taels of silver, we will prove that the actual receipt of silver is 2ooo million taels, please rest assured." As soon as the void said, Gu Zhutong was happy, it seems that monks can't do without the world, and they will also engage in this set of officials, since the void understands the rules so well, he might as well take out another 2ooo million taels of silver. The situation in the county, Gu Zhutong also figured it out, the main book and the history of the canon are not daring to have anything to say, as long as the county Cheng Longxiao is settled, the other officials are all grass on the wall, it doesn't matter.
Gu Zhutong decided to discuss with Long Xiao again, and when Long Xiao heard it, Gu Zhutong was playing the remaining 2ooo taels of silver again, and couldn't help but feel funny, this Gu Zhutong is still a pioneer, and the means of making money are really endless, and he even wants to rebuild Nanshan Temple, which shows that he has reached an agreement with the monks of Nanshan Temple. Long Xiao felt that the 2ooo taels of silver in the Hu family money village was not a long way, only there was a legitimate project, and it was spent just right, and Gu Zhi County in the province couldn't sleep every day.
Long Xiao agreed to Gu Zhutong's proposal, and Gu Zhutong made an agreement with the Void and gave the Void a silver ticket of 1ooo taels, and the Void issued a receipt of 2ooo taels. Gu Zhutong did not dare to swallow it alone, but personally gave Long Xiao 4oo thousand taels, and asked Long Xiao to transfer 1oo taels to Dian Shiwu, and his master would see what Long Xiao's opinion was. Gu Zhutong gave the main bookkeeper Xing Mantang 1oo thousand taels, and the two masters were 5o thousand taels each, and the rest were collected by themselves, and the 1ooo taels of silver were all divided.
Nanshan Temple has 1ooo million taels of silver, began a large-scale reconstruction, when digging the foundation, dug out an iron lump, very heavy, did not take it seriously, the abbot put it in his own meditation room. One day, Long Xiao went up the mountain to see the construction of Nanshan Temple, and when he came to the abbot's meditation room, he saw the iron bump: "Master of the Void, what is this", because Long Xiao looked at the iron ball on the ball mill in his previous life, and asked casually.
"Lord Long, this is dug when digging the foundation, I don't know what it is, I can't open it after thinking of many ways, it's very heavy, if you like it, take it." Long Xiao felt curious when he heard it, and when he looked closely, the appearance was iron, so he tested it with his true qi, and it was indeed hollow inside, Long Xiao felt strange, maybe it was some kind of treasure, so he brought it back to his county yamen. Long Xiao tried to split it with an iron axe, but as a result, the iron axe rolled up, but it still didn't split, so Long Xiao whimsically poured his Xuanyuan true qi into the sword, and what was surprising was that the iron pimple was actually split into two halves, revealing an object that even Long Xiao didn't know what it was.
There are words on it, it is a small seal, but Long Xiao understands it, it turns out to be a huge pill, an elixir developed by a foreign scholar of the Qin Dynasty. Long Xiao smiled secretly, how can there be an elixir in time? It was all made up by those alchemists, and it was nothing more than a means to fool the emperor on the spot and obtain an official position or gold, silver and money. Although Long Xiao didn't believe it, he thought of the fact that if these things were dedicated to the emperor, maybe they would be of great benefit. So, Long Xiao sent someone to the capital, and reported to the backer to see if the backer was interested in this thing, if he was interested, he might as well dedicate it to him, and also gain the favor of the backer king, if he didn't like it, he would throw it away, anyway, he didn't believe it.
