Volume 9, Neon of the Stars X, Moonrise on the Sea
Lan Zhanjiang didn't come empty-handed, he was holding a jar of wine, the bamboo flower wine of the bamboo Taoist priest.
Chuansu only drinks tea, and as soon as the bamboo flower wine is opened, the aroma of soaked wine spreads; Zhu Tong felt Chuansu's throat roll, and quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. If someone at this moment says that Master Chuansu holds the vows and does not eat after lunch, the little liar will never believe it again.
Zhu Tong sat here for more than an hour, but he still didn't know Wang Xiangzhen's true identity; only knew that he was a high-ranking official, and both Master Chuansu and Lan Zhanjiang were deliberately currying favor with him.
"The last time the donor asked about it, the poor monk Buddha didn't dare to say anything, Amitabha, it's really not good to talk nonsense about such things. However, people do not exist alone, and any kind of encounter has a cause and effect. The so-called good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil; This newspaper is sooner or later, and there is this world newspaper and other world reports. In front of karma, everyone is equal; It doesn't shrink because of your status. For example, the status of the benefactor has a huge relationship between a thought; Be more careful. As long as the donor devotes himself to cultivating the Buddha, deeply reflecting on his past actions, and doing more good deeds, he will definitely be able to make up for his past sins. In this way, the merits gathered on the donor are offset by the real ease. This is the right path that will be of great benefit to future generations as well as to the past life. Only the donor can have a dragon and a phoenix. β
Master Chuansu began to preach for Wang Xiangzhen, and the meaning of his words showed that Wang Xiangzhen had asked him about his children, and he had no idea that he had a daughter.
Lan Zhanjiang frowned, and poured a glass of bamboo flower wine for Wang Xiangzhen: "Today's Lantern Festival, the master should not say anything about karma or not, Mr. Wang is rarely free." β
Even Zhu Tong saw that although Wang Xiangzhen was quiet, he was not satisfied with Chuansu's words and said such a private matter on this occasion; The monk has the meaning of showing off his closeness to Wang Xiangzhen.
The little liar has always taken it as his responsibility to frame people who pretend to be smart, Zhao Yongbing was turned away by this monk, after seeing through the details of Chuansu, how could he easily let him go?
"Master Chuansu, if the Dharma is so brilliant, why is it that after thousands of years of propagation, there are fewer and fewer followers? It turns out that this karma is also so complicated, and there is also 'retribution from other worlds'? It's just that who's in charge of the newspaper industry is really a fat mess. Hehe, karma is not a joke, it also needs to be used to deceive people. I see that many people who seem to be of high morals do things behind their backs to seek money and kill their lives, just because they are not afraid of this inexplicable karma. What do you say? β
There are words in the fairy tale, and the biography is shocked, and he said vaguely: "That's because they can't correctly understand the original meaning of Buddhism, and human nature is selfish; The Venerable Master is in the midst of glory, the good fortune is too great, the temptation is too great, and it is difficult to have a true belief in the Dharma. The middle and lower people lament that the world is unfair, the karma is too deep, the resentment is too deep, and it is difficult to solve the Dharma correctly. They don't know that life is absurd, and that faith in Buddha is the only way to change the absurdity of life. You must know that cultivating the Buddha and worshiping the Buddha are all for oneself, and everyone has a Buddha in their hearts, one thought of a pure mind is the Dharma body, one thought of an undifferentiated mind is the body, and one thought of an undifferentiated mind is the incarnation. The nature originally has three bodies, and there is no need to seek it outside the body. β
Chuansu is eloquent, and the little liar nods frequently. However, it is a bit inappropriate to say that Lan Zhanjiang and Wang Xiangzhen can be regarded as masters.
Lan Zhanjiang was the first to challenge: "Although people are very small compared to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, they are not small enough to live by relying on great assumptions. There is a law to the growth and decline of all things, and smallness is not a reason to accept some so-called truth. Buddhism may be very clever, but what the master said is that people are selfish by nature, and Zhanjiang is offended, and the fault is not in the small people, but in you preachers. It's because you don't have the ability to convince everyone of the greatness of the Buddha. Besides, the world is so big that there is no wonder, and there is a predecessor in Zhanjiang who has spent his life wandering around. He once said that he had never known that there were so many races in the world, so many mountains and oceans, and that there were so many stars in the universe. The master said that life is absurd, and I think that the person who said this is absurd; Could it be that the Buddha was able to measure the vast earth and the infinite universe by virtue of the comprehension of a few decades and the insight of the square inch of land he walked through? The Buddha didn't even know that there were black people in this world. β
This senior must be Zhou Banweng, Zhu Tong was about to add fire, Wang Xiangzhen spoke.
"What did the master say this time about 'selflessness'? It is said that everything in the world is an illusion of sexuality, and everything in life is just some illusory illusions. Just now, the master also talked about karma, how to understand it? Are the sutras also contradictory? Buddhism or Taoism and Christianity are all beliefs, and it is good to persuade others to do good, but you should pay attention to self-sacredness, and if it develops to imprison other people's thoughts and interfere in other people's lives, you should reflect on yourself. In my opinion, educating the world into lay people who only know how to recite scriptures and do not seek progress is as evil as war. For example, the telephone used by the master, the car and the airplane, which were invented by the monks? What is the relationship between the various conveniences of modern society enjoyed by the master and the original intention of Shakyamuni Buddha? These are the crystallization of civilization of free-spirited intellectual exploration, and it is selfish to imprison the pace of human exploration on sacred grounds in order to maintain a belief. In the same way in Buddhism, if you still cling to the self and mystery, and deliberately complicate simple things, sooner or later you will be eliminated. β
Wang Xiangzhen unconsciously drank too much, and these words were very disrespectful, but Chuansu only closed his eyes and chanted the Buddha and didn't say anything.
Zhu Tong felt that Wang Xiangzhen was really clever, at his level, he had already understood the things in the world, and he had seen through the essence of Chuansu, and he couldn't tolerate such obvious offense by others. I use this passage to point out the master of Chuansu, be careful, don't talk nonsense.
"Master, if Xiang Zhen has an offense, please also ask Master Haihan; If it still feels a little reasonable......" Wang Xiangzhen said this, and looked at Chuansu with a smile and stopped talking.
"Amitabha." Sure enough, Chuansu was not a fool, he opened his mouth to chant the Buddha, smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.
In the next time, I really only talked about Fengyue, and nothing else. Lan Zhanjiang kept silent and didn't mention any intention of visiting, and Wang Xiangzhen didn't ask.
At ten o'clock, Xiao Xiao came over to ask Wang Xiangzhen to listen to a phone call, and this party should be over.
Wang Xiangzhen wanted to send Zhu Tong back, and Lan Zhanjiang said that he would drop by and send a ride on his behalf.
After going out, there were two cars parked in front of the door; Waiting for Lan Zhanjiang was a big Buick, and Master Chuansu was riding in an expensive BMW 730.
"When I see the master's car, I know why the financial expenses of the Su Shanxing Foundation are so high."
Lan Zhanjiang smiled and teased Chuansu, and made the old face of the master red: "Amitabha, this is a gift from a layman, and poor monks rarely use it." β
"Master don't be nervous, we will talk about it, and we will send the promised money over in these two days; However, what the master promised us, we must also hurry. β
"Good." Master Chuan Su tithes, got into the car and left under the service of a little monk.
Sitting on the big Buick, Zhu Tong saw that the driver was Qin Keqiang. No wonder Lan Zhanjiang was not surprised when he saw him.
"Brother Lan, what did Master Chuansu promise you? Nine million worth is not a trivial matter, right? Zhu Tong greeted Qin Keqiang and asked Lan Zhanjiang, he really cares about the origin of Master Chuansu, what kind of thing is he concerned about, Lan Zhanjiang wants to ask Chuansu for help?
"The profound cultivation of Buddhism and the wide range of people are very influential in South Asia, especially among the wealthy. He has taken refuge in the mainland in recent years, and there are two major lawsuits involving him, and Mr. Wang also knows about it. Until the wind is calm, Chuansu will not leave the mainland. Still, he's a good bridge. I asked him to arrange a meeting with a distinguished guest to come to Shanghai, as it is today. β
Lan Zhanjiang didn't hide it, and asked Zhu Tong after the introduction: "Are you very familiar with Wang Xiangzhen?" β
"I'm not very familiar, I've seen two sides before."
"This is strange, Wang Xiangzhen has always been very careful and will not easily see anyone. I worked hard for this meeting for two months. β
"We really don't know each other, and I still don't know what he does." Zhu Tong was serious, Lan Zhanjiang was even more strange, and looked at him carefully before saying:
At the beginning of the year, he took the initiative to withdraw from the competition under the pretext of self-cultivation and temporarily retired to Shanghai; No arrangements will be accepted. But the more such a person is, the more he can earn respect, even for his opponents. Although he does not hold a position, he has a large amount of foreign exchange reserves in his hands, and it seems that he came to Shanghai for two purposes: First, to rectify Shanghai's financial market, and second, to block international funds that enter Shanghai's stock market and real estate market speculation at an appropriate time. Wang Xiangzhen's trip was very mysterious, and he held Shang Fang's sword in his hand. I don't know if you have noticed, during the time Wang Xiangzhen arrived in Shanghai, Shanghai's stock market was very calm, and the big speculators in the past all died down, especially the funds from various banks, which were quickly withdrawn. He is very clever in retreating, Wang Xiangzhen is still young, if nothing else, he will have a greater chance. Nowadays, there are not many high-ranking officials who are familiar with the financial business, and the above is taking this opportunity to examine him. β
Zhu Tong doesn't speculate in stocks, nor does he speculate in real estate, first, he doesn't have so much money, and second, he won't participate in unfamiliar games at all. Like gambling, he doesn't put his chips on erratic luck. Wang Xiangzhen's ups and downs are not very attractive to the little liar, he is more concerned about what all this has to do with Lan Zhanjiang and himself.
"What is the matter with Brother Lan looking for Wang Xiangzhen?"
"We hope to take a stake in China Commercial Bank, the preliminary intention has been reached, and the specific conditions are being negotiated. Wang Xiangzhen has a senior staff member named Xiang Huayi, who is the chairman of Huayi Foundation, and Huayi Fund is the major shareholder and initiator of China Commercial Bank. This is a long-term investment, and now if you take a stake in Huashang Bank, you can get about 2 billion percent of the shares. If China Commercial Bank successfully goes public in Singapore in October with our help, 2 billion will become at least 5 billion. β
"So profitable?" Zhu Tong's eyes widened in surprise.
"It's not easy to make any money, and the case of Huashang Bank is very competitive, which is capital operation. At present, China Commercial Bank does not have the basic conditions for listing, and its shareholder structure needs to be adjusted. It's not just us who want to eat this piece of fat, there are many big banks in the world vying to be partners of China Commercial Bank; There are three companies that have reached an early intention with them, and they are all large institutions with international strength. So, if you have the opportunity to ......"
When Lan Zhanjiang said this, the little liar hurriedly shook his head: "Don't look for me in this matter, I don't have so much energy to influence Wang Xiangzhen." β
"Wang Xiangzhen has an influence on Chinese businessmen, but the key is not him; I just want you to understand the relationship, at least, you know our competitors. β
"Who?"
"Kazuo Ikeda."
"Kazuo Ikeda?" Zhu Tong and Lan Zhanjiang looked at each other, and could see that he was not joking.
"It is Kazuo Ikeda, who is the vice president of the Iike consortium and who is also seeking a stake in China Commercial Bank, and they are our main competitors. You also know Kazuo Ikeda's collaborator, Tian Xu Yangtian Gongzi, and Tian Gongzi has a great relationship with Wang Xiangzhen. Speaking of which, Wang Xiangzhen can have today, thanks to the help of Tian Xuyang's father; The first step he stepped into his career was Tian Lao's confidential secretary. You also know Wang Xiangzhen's wife Xia Jie, she is the head nurse of the high-level cadre ward of the Ocean Hospital, and she is also the cousin of Tian Gongzi. In fact, she is the sister of Tian Gongzi's half-sibling. Xia Jie's mother was the father who left Tian Xuyang in the turmoil, and she took her mother's surname. Tian Xuyang and Tian Yiyi, that is, Chen Yiyi next to you, are both from their father's second wife. β
It took a long time for Zhu Tong to sort out such a complicated relationship: "Let me think about it, but it may not help too much; Your business is too big, and I'm just a small doctor with limited energy. β
"There are few doctors like Zhu Zhangmen in the world. If you can help us do this, you will get % in return. β
"Is it 5 percent or 2 billion percent?" The little liar's eyes lit up.
"5 billion or 10 billion, if it works well, we get more than 20% of the shares of China Commercial Bank; It is also possible that this business will make 15 billion yuan. The public relations fee prepared by Longbang for this business is 3%, and if you have the ability, you can earn it all. Lan Zhanjiang smiled and held his hand: "Let's go to the sea to relax, today is the Lantern Festival, only the three of us go to the sea to admire the moon." β
Only then did Zhu Tong find out that the Buick car was parked in the yacht dock; He does have a desire to drink, and Qin Keqiang is the best drinking friend.
There are many yachts going out to sea tonight to enjoy the moon, and the yacht in Lan Zhanjiang is not very eye-catching, more than 50 meters long; Compared to Liu Yilan's one, it can only be regarded as average.
Qin Keqiang drove the three crew members off the dock, and one person skillfully manipulated the yacht, gradually leaving the lights of Shanghai Beach far away.
The moon is like snow, and the night sky over the sea is as pure as a fairyland, free from the noise, and surrounded by unreal silence. The moon emitted a pure glow, and it looked more holy than the bend in the neon of the city; The sea ripples gently around you, and there is a moonlight in the waves, and you can practice Qingli swaying into the depths of your soul.
Zhu Tong told Lan Zhanjiang everything he knew about Wang Xiangzhen, especially the relationship between Jiang Xiaoyu and Nurse Xia; Regarding the paragraph between Aunt Die and Wang Xiangzhen, Zhu Tong hadn't figured out how to deal with it, and didn't mention it to Lan Zhanjiang.
"Interesting, no wonder. Wang Xiangzhen has been living in the office since he came to Shanghai, and Xia Jie has been here several times, but he stayed for a long time before leaving. Zhu Tong, the relationship between Tian Xuyang and Wang Xiangzhen is very delicate; It is said that they have not seen each other for a long time. Tian Xuyang has a deep foundation in Shanghai, and he plays well in all aspects, but he takes care of Wang Xiangzhen very much. There is a rumor about the past between them, saying that when Wang Xiangzhen and Xia Jie got married, Tian Xuyang had a big wedding, and at that time, he was just a teenager. Master Chuansu took Tian Gongzi's money to act as a middleman for them. Hehe, Wang Xiangzhen's last words were to warn Chuansu: he is not qualified to be this middleman. β
In such a family, it is not surprising that something happens; Zhu Tong drank wine and looked at the depths of the sea. Synthesize the information you get in one place, but you can't find the key to it. Looking at Tian Xuyang's current situation, he will not handle the relationship between himself and Wang Xiangzhen so badly. If it is said that this involves a deformed sister-brother relationship, how could Jiang Xiaoyu insert a leg?
More than ten years ago, oh, nineteen years ago, Tian Gongzi was just a teenager, what could he do at that age?
"Why?" Zhu Tong suddenly asked.
"What, why?" Lan Zhanjiang didn't know what was going on in his heart.
"Why did the relationship between Tian Gongzi and Wang Xiangzhen come to this point?"
Wang Xiangzhen followed Tian Lao for three years, and was later recommended to Beijing; He has always been concerned about the economic side of things. After arriving in Beijing, Wang Xiangzhen caught a few big fish, the biggest one was Tian Gongzi. β
Lan Zhanjiang stretched out his hand to open the hidden refrigerator, picked out the wine inside, and said: "Tian Gongzi is too confident, and his methods are ruthless; After knowing that the accident happened, he thought that Wang Xiangzhen would open up when he knew about his existence, and he didn't even say hello. Unexpectedly, Wang Xiangzhen's ability to pretend to be confused was better than him, and after cutting off Tian Gongzi's right-hand man, he called Tian Lao to report to work. It's already like that, and no one can go back to heaven; At that time, Tian Gongzi said that he wanted to see how unlucky Wang Xiangzhen was, saying that Wang Xiangzhen was a dog raised by their family. In fact, at that stage, Tian Lao was no longer of much help to Wang Xiangzhen. Tian Gongzi always thought that Wang Xiangzhen was a villain who crossed the river and demolished the bridge, but after experiencing more things, Tian Gongzi gradually became calm, and his business became bigger and bigger; And Wang Xiangzhen is very smart, and his career has gone quite smoothly, and it is too late for Tian Gongzi to repair this relationship. β
The yacht stalled and floated freely on the sea; Watching the moon on the sea is indeed unique.
Qin Keqiang walked onto the deck and said to Lan Zhanjiang: "Big brother, you said you would give me a gift." β
"Ha, do you want it?" Lan Zhanjiang is opening a bottle of Lafite; "Don't regret it, you could have gotten a better gift; Besides, it is expensive to maintain a yacht. How do you want to raise it? β
"After thinking about it, I am ready to enter the logistics industry along the coast of Jiangsu and Zhejiang; This market is not very mature, and to a large extent, it is not a service, but a fist. Shiqimen's fists will not lose to anyone. β
The logistics industry from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to the mainland is indeed very developed, but every route is full of bloody competition. Zhu Tong has heard that behind some large logistics companies, there are some murderous outlaws. However, the more such people know, the more important they are to strength, and after the Jianghu characters intervene, they will know what to fear
