Yang Chengzu was not in a hurry at this time, waved his hand and said, "What are you talking about?" I'm talking about the problem of Gotake-an, what does it have to do with this field? One yard to one yard, you can rest assured, as long as there is no problem with Wuzhuan and Chengfu Temple, we will not reverse black and white, pointing to the deer as a horse, and we can't beat a few monks into a trick, and insist that you collude with the White Lotus Sect. It is impossible to torture the nuns and let them talk nonsense. As long as you are okay with yourself, even if the land is returned to Seifukuji Temple in the end, I will not wronged you. You must believe in the imperial court, believe in brocade, and believe in this official. ”

Believe? Zong Zhen only believes that if Jinyiwei really investigates this matter to the end, he will have to shed his skin if he doesn't die, and what's worse is that the status of the lower court of Chengfu Temple may be canceled. He gritted his teeth, "Master, please take a step to speak, the poor monk has a love in return." ”

He is a monk, Yang Chengzu is not afraid of him doing any tricks, and entered a small room in the back with him, Zong Zhen knelt down for the second time and said: "Master, there are no outsiders at the moment, what do the poor monks say." As long as you raise your noble hand, the poor monk guarantees that from today onwards, no one will dare to trouble Tie Miao and her daughter on the one-third of an acre of land in Xiaotiezhuang. These two women, we are protected by Chengfu Temple. ”

Seifukuji Temple is extremely influential in the local area, which can be seen from just now, and his guarantee is very powerful.

Yang Chengzu said: "You are safe? Do you think I really need your protection? The person who wants to be protected, who dares to move a finger, I will let him know what life is better than death. The little means of your Buddhism, don't be in front of your own officials, it's too ordinary, it's nothing. You are arhats in the world, but Jinyiwei is the living king of Hades, which do you think is more terrifying, Arhats or Hades? ”

Zong Zhen said again: "Otherwise, the poor monk will call the shots and give you a hundred taels of silver for filial piety, and promise that it will be delivered to you within three days." ”

Just the day before yesterday, Yang Chengzu scattered his family's wealth and worked hard to save people, and the cash in his hand was only more than 200 taels. This one hundred taels of silver must be regarded as a huge amount of money for him.

Don't look at the dividends of 1,500 taels from the Cao Gang, but that is the share of everyone in the whole Xiaoqi, and it is 1,500 taels a year, and he is 100 taels in a blink of an eye, which shows that Zong Zhen has also made a capital.

Yang Chengzu hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said: "How many of the fields in Xiaotiezhuang are the property of the monks of your Chengfu Temple?" ”

Zong Zhen is in charge of managing the accounts, otherwise this work of recovering the land would not be handed over to him to do, so this figure is clear. only calculated: "About 300 acres of land are Buddha fields, but they are all field bones, and the fields are still in their own hands." ”

"Three hundred acres of land bones is already a lot. We only have a total of how many fields in Huaxian County, and your 300 acres of Buddha land, the county has to spread how much taxes to others. I've heard people say that monks are compassionate, so you should be merciful and have pity on the fathers and villagers in this county. ”

As soon as he heard the mention of this Buddha field, Zong Zhen's head shook like a rattle, "I can't help it, I can't do it." If the eldest lord thinks that one hundred taels of silver is too little, I will add a little more silver to you, but this Buddha field must not be. You know, I Shaolin Temple, has always been to the Buddha field to set the performance, if in which abbot to add industry, is a great merit, I Shaolin Tallinn existing temple in the Zen master Taoist monument and Tallinn tower inscription, the main content of its merits, is nothing more than to build a large countryside, increase land, or repair the temple, expand the warehouse, and monks gather and so on. The prestige and status of its Zen masters are often based on the amount of land they add to the monastery and the number of houses they build. Even the size of the stele and the height of the tower are often determined by how much property he added to the temple and how many houses he repaired during the period when he presided over the temple. Anyone who has added more land to the temple and strives for greater honor will be able to get a piece of filial piety from his son and grandson after his death, and he will be cautious in the end. If you want money, I can think of some way no matter what, but if you want Buddha Field, even my master may not be able to call the shots. ”

Shaolin is business-oriented, profit is king, and all performance appraisals speak to Fotian. Like Guangzhao Chengfu Temple, it is because of the wide placement of Buddha fields, so the position of Chengfu Temple is as stable as Mount Tai. There is even a special rule in the Shaolin Gate that when the monks have to go out to give up the land, they are only allowed to live and not sell it to death for a period of three years.

If it is a white land at that time, it should be redeemed after the autumn harvest. If it was a seedling at the time of its release, it should also be a seedling at the time of redemption. At the same time, it is also stipulated that when the monks sell their land, they must first enter the temple and then outside the temple. If no one in the temple accepts pawns, they are allowed to go out of the temple.

For the land outside the temple, if the original pawn monk is unable to redeem it, as long as it is a Shaolin temple monk, no matter who it is, he has the right to redeem it. When a person has money, he can redeem his place at any time.

Therefore, if so many Buddha fields are taken out, the temple will blame it, even Master Guangzhao may not be guilty of it, and as for Zongzhen, he doesn't even need to mention it, and he can't bear it at all. Rao is that no matter how bold he is, he will not dare to agree to such conditions.

Yang Chengzu smiled: "Master, you are also too worried. The rules of your Shaolin Temple are big, but no matter how big your rules are, can they still be bigger than the king's law? I just ask you, if these 300 acres of Buddha land can be bought in front of Uncle Pingyu, do you Shaolin depend on it or not? ”

"Uncle Pingyu, Jiang Chitose? Is this field dedicated to Chitose? Zong Zhen was full of suspicion, this doesn't sound like the truth. What kind of character is Jiang Bin, who has nothing to do with people like himself, and besides, he has a lot of wealth in his family, how can he still look at his own land?

"Ping Yubo is very wealthy, so he naturally doesn't look down on you for breaking the ground, but this matter is true for Jiang Qiansui. At present, you should know about the formation and training of the four armies outside the imperial court, but this raising of troops costs money......"

In short, Yang Chengzu belonged to one fish and two eats, asked for two pieces of silver for one thing, and played Jiang Bin's name in the Cao Gang, and Jiang Bin's golden sign in Zongzhen. If Uncle Jiang wants to raise soldiers, he has to ask for money, and if he wants money and food, he has to guarantee taxes. At present, the state's money and food are tight, and the tax collection is uneven, which delays the uncle's official business, who will suffer from the crime?

Yang Chengzu said again: "I didn't say that all the 300 acres of Buddha land should belong to me, and you more than 100 monks in Chengfu Temple also want to live, and I will also understand your hardships." The fields around the Tie family, I'm afraid there are dozens of acres, just donate this part of the field, even if you Shaolin monks co-organize military salaries for Chitose, in the future, this official will apply for a table for you. Moreover, great monk, no matter how much Buddha land you have won down, it is also enjoyed by you in the temple, but if you donate these dozens of acres of land, I will take out thirty percent of the field harvest, which is your personal income. ”
