If it weren't for He Defang's reminder, it is estimated that the villagers would have all run out. After waking up, ten young people from each of the two villages came down to guard Xiaozhi Mountain, and the others should do what they should do - in fact, they are to collect fertilizer, that is, to collect manure, which could have been collected directly in the city, but there are many rivers in the Zhangzhou Plain, and the people in the sub-city directly discharge the feces into the ditch, and the flowing water can quickly wash away the dirt - so they can only go to the pig-raising people to ask for it, and then carry the burden and concentrate it in the big septic tank on the bank of the Zhangshui River. Anyway, the people who have been farming in the Longxi Territory have not yet had the concept of insufficient land strength, after all, it is an alluvial plain of the estuary, the soil is fertile, and there is a lot of wasteland, and no one will have enough to support the manure fields that have nothing to pull into the field. The dispatch of the two villages has greatly alleviated the problem of pig farmers in the vicinity of dealing with pig manure.

As for cow dung, it's better to save it. In these years, even in the hot and humid climate in the south, evergreen can provide a lot of fresh forage, and is suitable for the growth of buffalo and cattle, but throughout ancient Chinese history, cattle have always been a scarce resource. What's even more strange is that since the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, cattle have been protected by legislation, whether it is the people or the government, they are regarded as an important means of production, but no matter how they are protected and bred, cattle are still so scarce.

Zhangzhou can't escape this strange circle.

A large number of fields are barren, and a large number of people cannot afford to cultivate, so they have to rely on local products to make up for the shortage of food.

Summer ploughing is already very urgent, and He Defang always says that he will not plant rice seedlings in the field as soon as possible, for fear that the autumn harvest will not be effective.

Xu Sande and the black ox went to plow out the last unfinished field. Because they were worried that the monks of Kaiyuan Temple rushed over to grab it like yesterday, they each brought five young people. The young Zhuang who stayed on the mountain also kept an eye on the movements of Dazhi Mountain opposite, and once a monk came out of the mountain gate of Kaiyuan Temple, they were ready to rush down the mountain to defend the iron ox, which was more precious than the buffalo.

Zhao Xiang sat outside the hall after lunch and smoked, his mind a little messy.

Everything that happens here is reality, not different from time and space, and it is not that a large amount of materials can be transported from modern times to arrange everything in an orderly manner, let alone read a few time-traveling novels to be able to mix here and thrive. Zhao Xiang couldn't even figure out what the monks of Kaiyuan Temple on the opposite mountain were thinking now.

Door-to-door consultation? Just kidding, a person with a net worth of 200 million will do so when he goes directly to a group of people who like to use violence to solve problems.

Then there is only consumption.

Fortunately, although Kaiyuan Temple is a large family in Zhangzhou, there is not only one Kaiyuan Temple in Zhangzhou. There is also a Chongfu Temple built in the Tang Dynasty on the south bank of Zhangshui, although the monks and fields are not as good as the Kaiyuan Temple, but the incense is far superior to them, and they have a wider mass base and social influence.

Kaiyuan Temple obtained the strong light flashlight through violent oppression, which is something that everyone knows, and what is even more shameless is that they are also preparing to hold a "Buddha Light Meeting", and the temples will inevitably be slandered. But if Kaiyuan Temple continues to use violent means to gain more treasures, other temples will never stand idly by - not because of justice, but because the fertilizer does not flow into the fields of outsiders.

Ah Q said: "The monk can touch it, but I can't touch it?" ”

The same can be obtained: the monks of Kaiyuan Temple can grab it, but I can't grab it?

Kaiyuan Temple's first concern is this. A lion can eat meat alone in a pack of wolves, definitely not because there are too few wolves, but because there is only one rabbit that is enough for a tiger to eat alone. If a tiger takes down a bison, it may not even have a bite to eat and will be chased away by the wolves.

And their second concern is the existence of Taoism. Chunyang has a better mass base than the temple, because he treats the people, and no matter how bad the old Chinese medicine skills are at the age of seventy or eighty, his reputation is definitely ten million times better than that of the temple that rents land and lends money.

The deep mass foundation of Taoism in Fujian is by no means the work of Chunyang alone, and the origin has to start from Wu Tai, the Great Dao Gong. A few decades ago, Wu Tai evolved from a human to a god and became the "Emperor of Baosheng", and the Taoist priest was directly equated with the divine doctor in the eyes of the masses.

If Chunyang is harmed by Kaiyuan Temple and Taoism is in trouble, will other temples take the opportunity to bring down a monopoly Kaiyuan Temple? How will the people react?

However, what Zhao Xiang didn't understand was that Chunyang, an old bachelor of seventy or eighty years old, didn't see him go out in the "mansion" on the top of Xiaozhi Mountain every day, how could he have such a good reputation, was it because he had been pretending to be a master for decades? Just like now, it's not a big deal to play a five-bird play, you have to stand in the middle of the courtyard under the sun at noon, and it is also called "Yang to turn yin, pick * yin * make up * yang", it is understandable to replenish yang in the past, after all, it is really unhealthy to nest in the crypt every day and not come out to bask in the sun, but now it is still necessary to nest in a constant temperature secret room every day?

What's even more annoying is that the old Taoist priest is wearing a gray and white Taoist robe that he gave him, and he adds a lot of points to his high-ranking image, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a Taoist immortal. He was surrounded by a circle of young men and women who played five bird plays, and he was simply offered as a fairy.

Zhao Xiang pinched off the cigarette in his hand and said, "Dao Chief, why don't you go out and talk to those monks in Kaiyuan Temple, coexist peacefully, and the well water will not interfere with the river water, okay?" ”

Chunyang didn't seem to hear it, and still beat his five birds.

Zhao Xiang continued: "Dao Chief, you are a master of the world, and you usually don't ask about the world, but if you continue like this, our family will be occupied by that group of monks." If you don't get out of the way, I can only come to the side, violence will only bring hatred, and it will never solve the problem at the root, right? ”

Chunyang stopped, retracted, exhaled a long breath of turbidity, and looked at the young people around him, and those young people dispersed with interest.

"I thought you were so powerful that you couldn't look down on the old way." Chunyang stood in front of Zhao Xiang with his hands behind his back, maintaining a masterful image.

Zhao Xiang asked: "Old Daoist, I shouldn't have offended you recently, right?" Good food and drink for you, and I got you such a good place to practice, my parents only recently used the air conditioner, you can enjoy it many days earlier than they enjoy, if this is still not good for you, I don't know how to look at it. If there is any misunderstanding between the two of us, you can say it directly, otherwise your thinking is too profound, and I will never understand what you mean. ”

Chunyang stroked his silver-white long beard, this old Taoist priest has achieved good results in his recent practice, and his originally pale beard has now turned into a brilliant silver-white. He sat down beside Zhao Xiang and said, "The appearance of such an artifact as the Iron Ox is too sudden, and those monks and thoughts are normal. When the flashlight was replaced, you should have understood that here, good things have to be hidden first, and when you have enough strength to take it out generously, you are in a hurry. ”

Zhao Xiang nodded: "What about now?" The problem now is that Kaiyuan Temple wants to rob it. That thing is not a treasure, if I want, I can get a hundred and eighty units out casually, but I am not happy, I have a lot of good things in my hand, and I can't take anything out and be robbed, right? ”

"Since it is an object for the benefit of the people, you can take out one hundred and eighty pieces at will, why are you so frightened, since you have already openly used it in the Xiaozhi Mountain Realm, why do you need to cover it. Rare things are naturally precious, but if they are so rare that they become peerless, they are peerless treasures. Got it? ”

Zhao Xiang said: "This is not thinking...... Belch! Dao Chief, I see! You said that I opened a shop and took out the iron ox to sell, is it that the monks of Kaiyuan Temple are helpless? ”

Chunyang squinted and pondered for a moment before nodding: "Feasible." ”

Seeing that Chunyang agreed, Zhao Xiang hurriedly stood up and said, "Dao Chief, I'll leave it to you first, if there is any situation, you have to help carry it first." In the evening I invite you to a good wine, a good wine that you are sure will be satisfied. ”

"Monkey spirit! At this time, there is a fine wine, why didn't you take it out before? And not a word. ”

Zhao Xiang smiled: "Don't you say how I know you like to drink, haha!" But now that you're old, I'll always ask you for help if I need it. After speaking, he jumped down the steps and shouted, "He Lao! He Lao! Let's go, come with me to find Brother Hanlin! I have something important for me to do! ”
