After a few days, the so-called vegetarian chicken, vegetarian duck, vegetarian ham, vegetarian fish and so on that are eaten every day are immediately on the market. Everyone is still very curious about this novel vegetarian dish, because vegetarian dishes can eat the feeling of meat, which is a very rare thing. And many people heard this statement, and immediately many people came over to try it and see what was delicious about it.

However, when those people came to eat every day, they found that the entire restaurant was already occupied. These people are either monks in bald robes or Taoist priests in Taoist robes, and they actually come here to eat. And those customers saw this situation, and they didn't dare to compete with the monks for a position, because if they grabbed a place with the monks, they would probably be hated by the so-called "immortals", which would be a bit too much.

"Boss, we are all monks!" The shopkeeper asked.

Jingwen said indifferently: "What happened to the monks? As long as it's people, we can do business. As long as they can afford to pay the bills, who of us can't do business? Therefore, although they are Taoist monks, as long as they can afford it, we can accept it. Can they still eat the overlord meal? ”

But the shopkeeper said helplessly: "They choose those vegetarian chickens and ducks made by the owner, that is, those vegetarian dishes that are very similar to meat, and they eat very happily!" ”

Jingwen is actually a little speechless, these monks and Taoists have become monks when they become monks, but they still want to eat meat? Although they are not allowed to eat meat in the precepts, they actually came to it to eat these vegetarian dishes that look like meat, and this is a loophole.

If Jing Wen hadn't invented these vegetarian dishes that looked like meat before, I'm afraid they wouldn't have had a choice. But now that Jingwen has invented this kind of dish, then they can eat these things with righteous words, anyway, these dishes are made of soybeans or flour, and they are not considered to have violated the rules and precepts, so the abbots of those temples and Taoist temples are not easy to stop.

Now, Jingwen's daily diet has temporarily become a gathering place for monks and Taoists, and they all come to eat these vegetarian chickens and ducks and the like. And Jingwen came to inspect the lobby of the restaurant, and found that those monks and Taoists were actually very greasy in their hands, and Jingwen felt that his three views were completely broken.

"Oh my God! If this continues, will my daily diet become a place where monks and Taoists come to break their vows? Jingwen thought speechlessly.

"Little Er, let's have another vegetarian duck. This vegetarian duck is very crispy, and the filling inside is also very good, give me another one! A monk without a single hair on the top of his head shouted.

And another Taoist priest also shouted: "Bring me a braised vegetarian fish, if it wasn't for the introduction in advance, I'm afraid I wouldn't know that this vegetarian fish is actually made of flour." It's amazing how flour can make such delicious things, it's amazing! ”

Soon, many shopkeepers came to serve the food, and these monks could not afford to offend. Moreover, these monks are all big dogs and have money. In this era, many of the wealth possessed by monks is unimaginable. Many monasteries had a lot of land, and then the monks rented it out to farmers who didn't have it, and then they got a lot of food wealth. There were even many peasants who thought that the tax burden was too heavy, and gave their land to the temple and Taoist temple, and then the temple Taoist temple reduced the rent to a level that was lighter than the national tax burden, and then they could obtain huge wealth. Moreover, the property of temples and Taoist temples is not subject to taxes, which attracts a large number of peasants to "donate", and the so-called "donation" of land to those meritorious scholars in later generations is a reason, all in the hope of avoiding the tax burden of the state, which is called the ancient version of reasonable tax avoidance.

But in any case, it is an indisputable fact that the monks have a lot of wealth. Usually they don't have much money to spend, but now that this vegetarian dish is the same as meat, they come to taste it. These monks immediately became big dogs, making Jingwen earn a lot of money.

"Master, how are these dishes?" Jingwen immediately asked a master.

The master's mouth was full of oil, and he said, "Very good, it is the same flavor as the fish before I became a monk, is this vegetarian made of flour?" This thing is good, you can give it to those little monks who have just become monks and have not yet completely adapted to the rules and precepts, I am here to try, I am here for the monks in the temple this month! ”

Jingwen was speechless, this old monk is really, he actually said what he said to the little monk in the temple, but it was obviously for his own appetite! Although the monks pay attention to the six purities, who in this world can really do it? Now this monk has obviously been held back for decades and has not eaten meat, so he has come to taste these good dishes.

However, this kind of hypocrite Jing Wen didn't want to pay attention to it, and Jing Wen came to a table, and there were two people on this table. These two people are an old Taoist priest in his fifties and a young Taoist priest in his twenties. It seems that they are not a master-apprentice relationship but also a same-door relationship, so let's eat this vegetarian chicken together.

"Two Daoists, how about these dishes? We are now conducting a survey to see the quality of the dishes, and we can improve it! Jingwen said.

The young Taoist priest looked at Jingwen and said, "Very good, almost no difference from meat." Even I, a Taoist priest who eats meat, like it very much. ”

"Daoist, can Taoist priests eat meat? Aren't monks and Taoists not allowed to eat meat? Jingwen asked.

The young Taoist priest replied: "My Taoist family is divided into two kinds, one is an ordinary Taoist priest, who just practices at home, this is called a layman, and uses abstinence from meat dishes. And there is another one, that is, the Taoist monks, who are the core figures of our Taoism, and the vast majority of them are abstaining from meat. And the monks did not quit meat at the beginning, but only advocated vegetarianism. But by the time of Emperor Wu of Liang, Emperor Wu of Liang ordered that monks and nuns across the country must be vegetarians, which was later formed as vegetarians. ”

Jing Wen knew that there were so many Taos in it, and although Jing Wen had read a lot of miscellaneous books, he had never seen anything about religion. As for Jingwen, he is not religious, so he does not understand anything religious. After hearing this Taoist priest's explanation, he could be regarded as gaining knowledge.

"Donor, can you let me see your face!" The old Taoist priest said.
