Chapter 425: Daxiangguo Temple

Du Dalei continued: "As for the retail price, he can sell it however he wants. However, the Great Song Dynasty court had to collect 20% of the tax, which had to be paid by Pan Lou. That's it, you can talk about it. ”

Cui Daoming went out, and Shen Yunu asked puzzledly: "Mr. Du, the slave family is from Panlou, aren't you afraid that the slave family will tell the shopkeeper Wei?" ”

"What's so scary? He didn't want to sell it, so I went to find other big restaurants. There are so many stores in Bianliang City, I'm still afraid that I won't be able to sell them? ”

Shen Yunu nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Du, just now you said you wanted to buy a restaurant?" I know there's a restaurant that wants to sell, I wonder if you're interested? ”

Du Dalei hurriedly asked, "Where is the location?" Is the place big? ”

Shen Yunu pursed his lips and smiled: "Are you in such a hurry?" Let's listen to the slave family slowly. This restaurant is huge, three storeys high, and there is a large courtyard at the back. The location is not far from Daexiangkokuji Temple. It is crowded with people, and it is a good place to open a restaurant. ”

Du Dalei asked, "According to what you say, business should be very good there?" How do you want to sell it? ”

"Mr. Du, the business of that restaurant is very good. However, the old shopkeeper died a few years ago, and his son was a complete gentleman, and the family business was ruined in a few years. There is no one to collect the debt, he can only sell the restaurant to pay off the debt. ”

"What is he in debt for?"

"It's not because of Guan Pu, he loves cockfighting and wrestling the most, and he makes big bets every time, and he quickly squanders his family business."

Du Dalei nodded: "Such a loser is not worthy of sympathy." I'll look at the house in a while, and I'll buy it if it's suitable. ”

Shen Yunu's eyes rolled: "The slave family will accompany you, the slave family has also seen it, let me help you talk to him." ”

Du Da Lei Le: "Then thank you Shen Niangzi, the matter is done, there will be heavy thanks." ”

Shen Yunu pouted: "Who coveted your heavy thanks?" It's unbelievable. ”

Li Jilong leaned over and said, "Brother, I'll bring all the guards at home, and I'll scare and scare that guy for a while, he will definitely not dare to ask for a high price." ”

Du Dalei patted Li Jilong's shoulder: "Okay, you kid has a good idea." In a while, you can bring a few more officials from Kaifeng Mansion with you, and we will get this guy as soon as possible." ”

After resting for a while, everyone went out of the Pan Building. A few officials squatting on the side of the street immediately ran over.

"Mr. Du, where are you going? What needs to be done, please do not hesitate to ask. ”

Du Dalei was happy: "What do you mean, everyone?" ”

A servant accompanied the smiling face: "Mr. Du, Lord Fu Yin instructed us to let us follow Mr. Du." If there's any blind guy who messes with you, let us get rid of it. ”

Du Dalei is very proud, it seems that the Great Song Dynasty attaches great importance to this weapon transaction, for fear that Lao Tzu will have an accident, and also sent the officials of Kaifeng Mansion to protect Lao Tzu, it seems that the Great Song Dynasty should soon use force against Hou Shu, otherwise he can't get excellent weapons and equipment in such a hurry.

Coming out of the Pan Tower, I walked all the way to the south, and soon approached the Great Xiangguo Temple. It's crowded and lively.

The streets are full of small stalls selling all sorts of novelties.

Shen Yunu led everyone to the door of a three-story restaurant.

Du Dalei looked up and saw that the restaurant was already a little dilapidated, the roof tiles were damaged in some places, the wooden beams and pillars were painted in some places, and the plaque above the gate was engraved with the two big characters 'Su Ji'.

When everyone entered the door, they saw that there were no guests in the hall, only a man sitting at the door dozing off.

A young man under Li Jilong went over and pushed the guy.

"Wake up, don't sleep, we have something to ask you in the ya."

The guy woke up, and there was a large group of people standing in front of the meeting, startled.

"You guys, what are you going to do? I, my master, no, no, I don't have any money for you! Don't hit me! ”

Shen Yunu stepped forward and said softly, "Little brother, don't be afraid, we are not here to collect debts." Where is the master of your house? We wanted to talk to him, we wanted to buy this restaurant. ”

The guy was relieved to see a beautiful woman come forward to talk to him.

"This lady, my master is indeed not there, he is hiding, afraid that the debt collectors will find him, I really don't know where he is."

Li Jilong hurriedly said, "Brother, what can I do about this?" He's hiding, how can we find him? ”

An official from Kaifeng Mansion said: "Don't worry, leave this matter to us, and soon the owner of the restaurant will be arrested to see you." ”

A servant asked the name and appearance of the restaurant owner clearly, and left in a hurry.

Du Dalei was bored, so he said to Li Jilong: "Little Lizi, let's go to Daxiangguo Temple for a turn." Monk Taiqin has been there for several days, and it's good for us to go there to see him. ”

So everyone went out of the restaurant and walked to the Great Xiangguo Temple.

Li Jilong said as he walked: "Brother, in fact, there is nothing to see in the Great Xiangguo Temple, the Great Xiangguo Temple was overheated a few years ago, and now it is being rebuilt." ”

"Oh? Daxiangguoji Temple is on fire? When was it happening? ”

"The year before last, it's almost rebuilt now."

"I heard that the monks of Daxiangguo Temple are very good at business?"

"Yes, the merchants of Daxiangguo Temple gather, this is a good place to talk about business."

Because of the large number of people, Shen Yunu had already put on her hat, and she said to Du Dalei: "Mr. Du, the monks of Daxiangguo Temple have a way to make money, you should really communicate with them more." ”

With the flow of people, everyone walked to the square in front of the Great Xiangguo Temple. It's bustling with stalls and vendors. Du Dalei was dazzled and felt that this place was similar to the temple fairs in later generations.

Everyone walked through the square and came to the gate of Daxiangguo Temple. The architecture here is magnificent, and many craftsmen are painting the walls.

"It seems that the Great Xiangguo Temple has not been completed yet." Du Dalei said.

Shen Yunu said: "It is said that the official family wants to expand the Great Xiangguo Temple, but now the imperial court has no money, so it can only be repaired. ”

Du Dalei nodded: "The landlord's family has no surplus grain, but the Great Song Dynasty will soon make a fortune." ”

Shen Yunu asked puzzledly: "Mr. Du, what do you mean, why can't I understand it?" ”

"The Buddha said, don't say it, don't say it."

Shen Yunu said angrily: "Is Mr. Du playing with the slave? Why can't you say that? ”

Du Dalei said very stinkyly: "Military affairs, you little lady still don't want to know, it's good for you." ”

At this time, the Taiqin monk Shi Shiran walked out of the Great Xiangguo Temple.

Du Da Lei Le: "Taiqin, you are too amazing, right?" How did you know we were coming to you? ”

Taiqin was also stunned: "The Sprinkle family didn't know that you were coming?" What are you? ”

"Let's come and see you, you haven't seen anyone for a few days, we're afraid that something will happen to you." Monk, what are you doing here? ”

Tai Qin raised the leather water bag in his hand, "There is no more wine in the temple, I'll come out and get some." ”

Du Dalei waved his hand: "What's the matter, Pang Xu, let someone send him a few altars tomorrow." ”

Taegin handed the water bag to a guard, told him to buy alcohol, and then led everyone into the temple.

The temple is a large construction site, full of busy craftsmen.

Taiqin took everyone to visit several main halls, and then walked to the depths of Daxiangguo Temple.

"The Sprinkle family will take you to see the abbot Master Yuanqing, don't talk nonsense when you arrive."

Du Dalei asked puzzledly: "What is there to see about a monk?" Lao Tzu was not interested. ”

Shen Yunu smiled and said, "Mr. Du, this Elder Yuanqing is a high-ranking monk, it will definitely not hurt you to see it." ”

Tai Qin glanced at Shen Yunu and immediately frowned.

Taiqin said to Du Dalei: "Yuanqing is the official family of the Great Song Dynasty, and he is in charge of the entire Great Song Dynasty Temple, don't neglect him." In addition, the business of Daxiangguo Temple is very large, which should be helpful to you. ”

When Du Dalei heard that there was business to discuss, he immediately became interested.

"Then let's go meet this great monk of Yuanqing and see what business can be done."

Taichen led the group through several courtyards and came to the door of a rustic meditation room.

He pushed open the door and walked in. Du Dalei, Li Jilong and Shen Yunu followed in.

The furnishings in the room were very simple, and Du Dalei saw a short, withered monk sitting on a low couch, closing his eyes and recuperating.

"Elder Yuanqing, wake up, I'll bring a little friend to see you."

Monk Yuanqing opened his eyes, a pair of small triangular eyes flashed, and he carefully looked at Du Dalei, Li Jilong and Shen Yunu.

Du Dalei felt that this thin and withered monk's eyes were a little intimidating, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised, it seemed that this monk was a little virtuous.

Yuan Qing slowly spoke: "A few donors, please sit down, the poor monk is old, so he won't stand up." ”

Du Dalei clasped his hands together: "Master, please do it, don't be polite to us." ”

After the three of them sat down, Taiqin spoke: "Yuanqing, this little friend is from the south and has come to Bianliang to do business. The female benefactor next to him didn't know the Sprinkle family. ”

Shen Yunu stood up and saluted and said, "The slave family's name is Shen Yunu, and he lives in Panlou. ”

Yuan Qing nodded: "It turned out to be Shen Xingshou of Pan Lou, please take a seat." ”

Yuan Qing stared at Du Dalei's face and observed it carefully, making Du Dalei a little uncomfortable.

Du Dalei smiled: "Monk, do you have flowers on my face?" Why do you think of me like that? ”

Yuan Qing retracted his gaze and said to Tai Qin: "Tai Qin, the origin of this Du Shi Lord is extraordinary. ”

"Oh? Do you see that? ”

Yuan Qing snorted and stopped talking.

Shen Yunu's eyes rolled and asked, "Master Yuanqing, Mr. Du is of course an extraordinary person. Recently, he has been a popular figure in Bianliang City, and he has caused a lot of trouble. ”

Yuan Qing obviously didn't want to say more, so he said to Taiqin: "Taiqin, the poor monk is tired, I don't want to meet guests today, and when you have time, you can bring Master Du Shi again." ”

Taiqin saw that Yuanqing had given an eviction order, so he had no choice but to take the three of them out.
