Chapter 6: John's Gift
"Damn! The people of Wangcheng are really rich! I couldn't help but sigh.
Why are you so emotional, because after the incense is burned, it's all dark, and there are still so many people in the entire Fachong Temple, the lights are bright everywhere, the voices are boiling, and there are many people who guarantee that the incense is more than one meter high, waiting in line to burn there.
I didn't come to burn incense, so I ran straight up the mountain.
This Fachong Temple is divided into three sections, a section at the foot of the mountain, a section in the middle, and a section at the top of the mountain.
There are 1,111 steps in each section, and when you reach the top of the mountain, it is exactly 3,333 steps.
I was going to make it all the way to the top of the mountain, and I had just run a dozen steps.
Then the nun in the robe came and pulled me to the cable car.
Said only eighty-eight, and it was back and forth.
I remember that it's usually fifteen yuan, and it's also back and forth, and the price of this New Year's New Year has gone up.
I looked at these fake nuns in hats and said viciously, "Where to buy tickets?" β
They took out a QR code and said to me, "Just scan me here!" β
Then I swept the little card on her chest, don't say it, her chest is big.
Then she gave fifteen dollars to the staff, who let me on the cable car.
I have a feeling, I'm hasty.
But there was no time to break with them, so I got on the cable car and went straight to the top of the mountain.
After arriving at the top of the mountain, I found the host, said that I would hold a mage, and offer a tablet, and I also took out a photo of the fifth elder brother's family of three.
The host took the photo, looked at it, and recited a sentence compassionately: "Nan no Amitabha!" β
Then he said, "It's not one tablet, it's three!" Donor, please, there are three types of tablet prices on our side! The price of the mage is also divided into three kinds, donor, you pick first, pick it, pay the money, and then we will talk about it in detail! β
I was taken away by a little monk, the girl with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and it didn't look like a good thing.
"Donor, please look at the price!" The little monk pointed to the price list and showed it to me.
I looked at it, and I almost didn't curse.
There are three levels of tablets, which are 1,888, 18,888, and 188,888.
"Damn, you're on the eighteenth bar, aren't you?" I couldn't help but curse.
The little monk smiled: "Take a good sign, you have to send it!" To be sent! You send it, I send it, everyone sends it! β
"You do this, does the Buddha know?" I asked angrily.
The little monk's face immediately changed: "Does the Buddha know that it has anything to do with you?" Do you do it or not? If you don't do it, don't get in the way of my business! β
The little monk's tone was already quite unkind.
I endured it, I came to offer tablets to the fifth elder brother, I was too lazy to care about these little things, I drank a drink and spent five
Six million, that's nothing.
So I took out the card and was ready to pay, the little monk's eyes lit up, but I stopped again, I pointed to the three tablets and asked, "What's the difference?" β
The first gear is the best mahogany tablet, which is consecrated by our senior brother Dedao himself.
The second gear is the best mahogany tablet, which is consecrated by our Uncle Dedao himself.
The third block is the best mahogany tablet, which is consecrated by the host of our moral way.
When I heard this, I almost didn't slap it in the face. Co-authoring is different from people, and adding money will rise tenfold and tenfold.
I reached out for my phone: "Hey 12345?" The asking price of Fachong Temple is too high... What the? Don't buy it, don't do it there, go to the cemetery! Your uncle's! β
I cursed hatefully, hung up the phone, and then saw that the little monk with three or five big men had surrounded me.
I rolled my eyes and handed the card to the little monk: "Swipe the card, and that ritual, also have the most expensive one, don't ask for the best, just ask for the most expensive!" β
It wasn't until the little monk took the money away that the five big men left without leaving.
"When will it start?" I asked the little monk.
The little monk didn't raise his head, and lowered his head and took out a new Apple phone.
"! Lao Tzu is still seven, or Zhang Qiushuang replaced it for me, this monk is twelve? I couldn't help but curse in my heart.
"Come back in three months!"
"What?"
"Come back in three months, are you deaf?"
"I spent more than a million, and you told me to come back in three months?" I almost couldn't resist giving this little monk a punch.
"Don't you know in line? Can't get in line? What about public morality? There is no public morality at all, you still want to cut the queue and can't succeed! "The little monk is very arrogant.
"Then return the money to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu won't do it!" I stretched out my hand and asked for a refund.
"That's not right! This is the sesame oil money donated to the Buddha, which one have you ever seen who donated the sesame oil money and returned it? If you want to find the Buddha, you have to go! "The little monk is quite awesome.
"You're not going back, are you?" I'm really on fire.
"Just don't retreat, if you want to make trouble, don't blame us for throwing you down, after throwing it down, you have to let the police station take it away for you!" The little monk threatened.
A few big men who had just disappeared came out again, with an expression that they were going to throw me down.
I hurriedly waved my hand to stop: "Don't!" No! Three months is three months! β
After saying that, I slipped away, found a place where the little monk couldn't see, and I made a phone call.
Half an hour later, the eldest brother sat in the host's office with his feet on the table. Below is the host kneeling on the ground trembling, and the little monk.
"Ade, how much did you say they charged you?" Big brother asked me.
"One thousand eight hundred eighty eight thousand eight hundred eighty-eight!" I'll open my mouth and come.
"Nope! No! Not so many, just over a hundredγγγγγγ As soon as the little monk spoke, he was slapped and fell down.
"You mean, my brother is cheating on you? Lying? The eldest brother looked at him viciously.
"Don't dare! Can't! Can't! The host hurriedly said.
"What then?" The eldest brother asked.
"Return the money! Refund! Get your money back now! And help to do a high-level ritual for free! The host said again and again.
"No, you don't! Just return the money, forget the law, I'm afraid that people like you will defile my friends! I hurriedly stopped.
Soon I received a refund of 18,888,888.
Then my eldest brother and I were ready to leave, and when I was leaving, I saw that there was a thing on the abbot's cabinet, which was very familiar, how it looked like a bronze seal, but this thing was a ceramic.
I picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was something from the Sui and Tang dynasties, and it was indeed a ceramic seal like a bronze seal, and then raised the ceramic seal in his hand at the host: "I like this thing, take it!" β
"Big brother, it's too much trouble, you should take care of it!" When we left the temple, I couldn't help but say anything.
"Okay, don't worry, you'll be able to see it on TV tonight!" The eldest brother patted me on the shoulder and said, "If you want to do something, you can go to Longxing Temple, which is the best!" β
After my eldest brother and I separated, we went straight to Longxing Temple, and they only symbolically charged a thousand yuan, which also included the maintenance fee for the tablet in the future.
When I went home that night, I saw a report on the news, saying that Fachong Temple was in place from the inside, and it was all in the company's operation, and there was no real monk at all, but all Zhejiang businessmen who were collecting money everywhere under the banner of Buddhism.
Not only have all the funds seized, but the main people will also be punished by law.
Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that at least a life sentence will be imposed.
When I was lamenting that my eldest brother was very efficient, the phone rang again, and there was still no good number, but I knew that it was John calling, and I was almost about to pick it up immediately.
But I held back, and it rang twenty-nine times before I got through.
John still had the same smiling face as before, without the slightest look of anger: "Hi! Happy New Year, Qin! β
I rolled my eyes in disregard for him and protest against his non-standard Mandarin!
"Qin, did you receive the gift I gave you?" John asked.
"What gift? Didn't get it! Then I walked around the room, didn't see anything special, and shouted at my mother, "Grandma, is there any delivery for me?" β
"It's not a courier! It's not a courier! It's the same ceramic you got at Fachong Temple this afternoon! John waved his hand and explained.
"Groove~" I couldn't help but curse when I heard John's words.
