Qian Delu thinks he is a shrewd businessman, not to mention other places, he is definitely the most intelligent businessman in this Green Leaf Town, and there is no time to suffer a loss when he talks about business with people or something.

originally thought that a monk was not ready to be caught, but after telling this story, he gave him thirty taels of silver, which was enough to send him away.

Originally, monks are very face-conscious, and they are rarely greedy for money, Qian Delu's abacus jingled, he had already heard the potential of this story, whether it was to tell the story, or to make books and sell them for money, they were absolutely worth the money, and even made tens of thousands of taels of silver.

But I never expected that this little abbot was also a wolf who eats people and doesn't spit out bones!

How can you say that this monk can be so good at bargaining? You have to take the whole story apart and sell it, fifty taels of silver per episode, otherwise you won't have to talk about it.

Qian Delu had the heart to refuse, and then came here to listen to the book, and wrote it down again from memory when he returned, but this abbot talked too much, and many of the terms in the story were unheard of, and he couldn't remember it.

In desperation, Qian Delu agreed to Huo Yuanzhen's request.

I thought this story was a ten-episode eight-episode, but I didn't expect this abbot to say that there were a hundred episodes.

But for this, Qian Delu is not afraid, the more the better, and the more money he can sell.

The two discussed for a long time, and finally Qian Delu agreed to Huo Yuanzhen's proposal to pay in installments.

It was the first time that Qian Delu had heard of this method, he needed to pay the abbot of the first ring for thirty episodes first, and after the story was told for thirty episodes, he would pay for forty episodes, and finally when the story was all told, he would pay for thirty episodes.

Although this method is very new, Qian Delu has to admit that this method is very good, very reasonable, and guaranteed for both parties.

The two men discussed it and signed it.

Huo Yuanzhen put away the contract with a smile, and then had to invite Qian Delu to visit his Yuzhai Mountain.

Yuzhai Mountain is steep, there is no way to climb around, there is only a way up the mountain, originally according to Huo Yuanzhen's memory in his previous life, Shaolin Temple is under another peak, but when he got here, he found the benefits of Yuzhai Mountain.

Easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is the best place to set up a base camp, the terrain on the mountain is vast, you can also plant yourself, and the lake, you can be completely self-sufficient, in case your own sect tree is big in the future, attracting the attack of the rivers and lakes or the imperial court, with this dangerous peak can also withstand a year and a half without any problem.

led Qian Delu for a while, Huo Yuanzhen said: "Master Qian, I don't know what you think of the future development of my Shaolin?"

Qian Delu looked at the abbot who was not very old, but his face was shrewd, so he almost engraved the word profiteer on his forehead, and sighed: "Shaolin Temple sits on Baoshan, and there is the abbot, the leader of the genius, it is certain that he will carry it forward in the future, although Qian is not a Jianghu person, but he can also guess that Shaolin's achievements are extraordinary, if the abbot still has profound martial arts, then it is not a dream to become a martial arts faction."

"Oh, then I don't know what the money donor thinks of my Shaolin teachings?".

There are not only Shaolin on Shaolin Mountain, but also Zhongyue School and Fawang Temple, although Shaolin Temple is the smallest, but the reputation is good, Qian Delu also knows some about the Buddhism preached by Shaolin, and said: "Shaolin preaches the universality of all sentient beings, compassion for the heart, of course it will be welcomed by the people, but the current popularity is still small, if it is famous in the rivers and lakes, it will be prosperous."

"Thank you for the comment of the money donor, the poor monk has an immature idea."

"Master Abbot, please speak."

"The idea of the poor monk and the money donor coincide, and I also think that my Shaolin will be carried forward, but there are still many difficulties in rising in a short time, such as the problem of capital and silver."

Hearing Huo Yuanzhen mention money, Qian Delu immediately became vigilant and did not answer immediately, lest he be surrounded by this abbot again.

Huo Yuanzhen was not in a hurry, and Qian Delu slowly walked to the side of the mountain, this place has a wide field of vision, you can look down on the entire mountain, and you can also see it at the bottom of the mountain for the first time, which is the place where the road up the mountain is connected.

"Qian donor, please see, the poor monk plans to build a mountain gate here, but this road is in disrepair and needs to be repaired with silver taels, and the poor monk also plans to encircle the wall, paving the ground with bluestones, and also needs silver taels, and the poor monk is a monk, and he is shy in his pocket."

Qian Delu pursed his lips disdainfully, and said in his heart Thanks to you being a monk, otherwise would there still be a place for me in Luye Town?

Huo Yuanzhen seemed to be unaware of Qian Delu's actions, and continued: "So the poor monk wants to discuss with the Qian donor, use my Shaolin future income as a guarantee, and borrow part of the silver taels from the Qian donor's money village for the construction of the road up the mountain and the facilities in the temple, I don't know what the Qian donor thinks?"

"Use the future income as a guarantee?" Qian Delu was full of black lines, he had never heard of this kind of guarantee.

"That's right, it's to use the future income as a guarantee", Huo Yuanzhen looked at Qian Delu with a smile.

"Master Abbot, forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, this seems to have no precedent, although Qian Mou was optimistic about Shaolin's future earnings just now, but after all, it was just a guess, who knows if it will come true, in case the abbot's temple is established but can't make money, then Qian Mou is not lost."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, in fact, you are optimistic about the future prospects of my temple, just as you are optimistic about a business opportunity, who can know if something will definitely make money?

"Master, I understand what you said, but this matter of guaranteeing future earnings is unheard of, and Qian is really not at ease."

"Donor, that's good, if our temple can't make money in the future and can't afford to repay your silver taels, the poor monk will tell a story to the donor for free, and the excitement is guaranteed not to be under Journey to the West."

"Master still has a story?" Qian Delu looked at Huo Yuanzhen in disbelief, he didn't know how Huo Yuanzhen came up with this story, how could it still be there? And the excitement was not bad at all.

Huo Yuanzhen laughed, sat on the spot, and talked about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms for Qian Delu.

He talked here, and Qian Delu listened carefully over there, until it was getting late, and when he talked about the battle of Guandu, it came to an end.

Looking at Qian Delu, who had been listening to it there all afternoon, Huo Yuanzhen smiled and said, "Master Qian, how is this story of the poor monk?"

"Ahh

"Master, this story must also be sold to me".

"No, let's not talk about selling or not for the time being, but I also ask the money donor to consider what the poor monk mentioned."

"Okay, don't think about it, Qian was also optimistic about the future prospects of Shaolin, and now there is the story of the master as a guarantee, so naturally don't worry, I don't know how much silver taels the master plans to borrow somewhere in Qian?"

"Not much, 10,000 taels is enough".

Qian Delu's face was embarrassed: "Master Abbot, I'm afraid I can't get 10,000 taels now, and I have to pay you for 30 episodes, and I don't have enough money, so it's good, five thousand taels, if Master Shaolin has no income in the future, then your story is worth five thousand taels."

Huo Yuanzhen also opened his mouth, and the five thousand taels were actually satisfied, and nodded at the moment.

So the two signed a contract again.

The thirty episodes of Journey to the West sold for 1,500 taels, Shaolin's future income was guaranteed, with an annual interest of one cent, and another 5,000 taels were borrowed from Qian Delu.

A total of 6,500 taels of silver, Qian Delu promised to send it to Huo Yuanzhen tomorrow.

Huo Yuanzhen entrusted Qian Delu to help him find craftsmen, there were stones on the mountain, and many costs were saved, so he only needed to pay the wages.

There are enough craftsmen, Huo Yuan is really rich, and he plans to repair the road up the mountain, the ground in the temple and the wall together.

Qian Delu was a businessman, so it was not difficult to do these things, so he left the Shaolin Temple after agreeing.

Seeing off Qian Delu, Huo Yuanzhen returned to his room.

The matter of money was solved, and Huo Yuanzhen began to plan the future blueprint of Shaolin Temple indoors.

The four of them had already come back, and Huo Yuanzhen had been spending a day wandering outside, and now they were asleep, and Huo Yuanzhen was also going to rest, but suddenly he was empty.

It was convenient to get up in the middle of the night, and when I saw that the light in Huo Yuanzhen's room was still on, I walked over.

"The abbot hasn't slept yet?".

"Ah, study the Dharma, and I'll fall asleep right away", Huo Yuanzhen pretended to pose.

"The abbot is diligent in Buddhist affairs, lighting lamps and boiling oil until late at night, this kind of spirit is really admired by the poor monks."

Since the two new monks came, Yikong also felt threatened, and his attitude towards Huo Yuanzhen, the abbot, also took a 180-degree turn.

Huo Yuanzhen didn't answer, and continued in Yikong: "It's past midnight now, it's the Dragon Boat Festival, and when the morning comes, I want to go down the mountain to buy red dates and glutinous rice and wrap some zongzi to eat, and the abbot still needs to give me some money."

"Oh, it's the Dragon Boat Festival, that's right, come to me tomorrow."

After a while, he said goodbye, thinking in his heart whether he could fill his own pockets and accumulate a few copper plates and leave.

Huo Yuanzhen was about to rest, but suddenly felt a slight fluctuation in the abbot system in his body, and Huo Yuanzhen hurriedly closed the door to check.

"Dragon Boat Festival, add a chance to draw!".

Seeing the system prompt, Huo Yuan was really ecstatic, there are still such benefits, are there any promotions during the New Year's holidays!
