Seeing Yuantong nodded, Yan Ran said again: "Needless to say, the imperial temple in the capital is carved by many generations of emperors from all over the world, that magnificent, I don't need to say, everyone who has been there knows it, right?" There is also the Pure Land Temple, the Guangfa Temple...... What did the master think was there to keep the hearts of the pilgrims? Especially those who are rich and noble. ”

"This ......" Monk Yuantong's face trembled, and he made a bitter face and said with a smile: "I was born poor, and it was because my family couldn't support our brothers that I was sent to be a monk, where do I know the thoughts of rich and noble people?" ”

Yan Ran smiled and said, "Actually, there is nothing, nobles are also people, they are mainly elegant and interesting." The master can find a garden master, redesign the layout of our Foguang Temple, and wait for the Foguang Temple to take on a new look, and worry that the nobles will not come? Moreover, we are here again the place where the Buddha manifests, if you don't come here to worship the Buddha, can you still go there? Moreover, there is a great opportunity to rebuild the monastery right now, but I don't know if the master can catch it. ”

"What chance?" Yuantong's eyes are bright.

Xiao Wuji looked at Xiuzhu thoughtfully.

Lu Ju and Huang Ying sat on the sidelines doing needlework, ignoring their conversation.

"Didn't the master notice that there have been more and more homeless people in our neighborhood recently?"

"Well, recently, many refugees have turned into thieves and come to our temple to steal, and the monks in the temple are a little unable to mobilize." Yuantong echoed Yan Ran's words, obviously not understanding the meaning of her words.

Yan Ran smiled lightly and looked at Yuantong, "So what does the master plan to do?" ”

Yuantong was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know why Yan Ran suddenly talked to him about national affairs again, "Naturally, we will organize all the forces in the temple, defend day and night, and try to block the nuisance of those homeless people outside." ”

Yan Ran shook his head with a smile and said softly, "That's just a strategy." How much of the territory of Dayan has been affected this year, does the master know? How many homeless people are flocking to the land of Gyeonggi, has the master counted? With the number of existing monks in Foguang Temple, it won't take too long to be overstretched, so how can we prevent it? ”

Yuantong's face showed a heavy pain, and he pondered for a while before he said, "Does the donor have a good strategy?" ”

"I have a strategy for the top, the middle and the bottom, and the master already knows it. What about the middle and best strategies, do you want to hear about it? The candle flame jumped, reflecting Yan Ran's little face.

Yuantong immediately said: "The poor monk listens! He already figured it out, although the other party was very young and ate more rice than he ate, but it was undeniable that his curiosity made the family tune, and he didn't hold back, as people wished, came here, so what else did he care? Naturally, you have to be cheeky and hear what the other party wants to say in your ears, and wait until you go back to make your own choice.

"Okay." Yan Ran was also simply, he originally wanted to tell others, but now that he has the opportunity, it is impossible to give up, "What I thought of was similar to what the master thought, so I won't describe it here." However, in this way, when the famine passes, there will be no benefit to the temple, and of course the harm will be minimal. ”

"Now, I'll talk about the middle way. The reason why this middle policy is called the middle policy is because if the master does this, when the matter is over, your temple will grow to varying degrees. Of course, the extent to which it grows depends entirely on the charm of the master. ”

As soon as Yuantong heard it, this middle strategy can make the strength of Foguang Temple stronger, and a pair of eyes revealed a fine light, completely forgetting what Yan Ran said, and the best strategy, and asked directly: "How does this make my temple stronger?" I also hope that the donor will not hesitate to teach. ”

Yan Ran did not shirk, and said in a deep voice: "Because of the famine, there must be a large number of people displaced, and now a lot of disaster victims have flocked to Gyeonggi, if the master sets a rule and accepts disciples in them, in this way, your temple will have people, and at the same time, it can also avoid many people from dying because of this, the master kills two birds with one stone." ”

"This is a much more complicated strategy than the middle policy. However, if he can do it well, he should be of great merit, and maybe in a hundred years, he will be crowned with the Western Elysium. Yan Ran said this, set his eyes on the Yuantong monk, and saw that his eyes were full of light when he heard the middle strategy, and when he heard that the middle strategy was complicated, he couldn't help but shake his head, and then said: "Master, the Buddhist family has clouds, saving people's lives, and winning the seventh-level floating slaughter, yes or no?" ”

Yuantong nodded repeatedly.

"If you save a thousand lives, ten thousand lives, do Buddhists say that you can become a Buddha on the ground?" Yan Ran then asked.

This time, Yuantong shook his head, his face was full of regret, and said: "This poor monk has never heard of ......" After thinking for a while, he raised his head and said: "This should be a great good karma!" ”

"Yes!" Yan Ran smiled and stroked his palms, "Buddhism pays the most attention to cause and effect, and there is a cause and effect. Yes, yes? If you do your best according to what I said, you can expand the scale of Foguang Temple, and third, you can expand the scale of Foguang Temple, so that Foguang Temple will be famous all over the world. Moreover, the master doesn't have to do anything, just make the rules and let the little masters below do it. ”

"How?" Yuantong was a little tempted by what he said, looked at Yan Ran, and swallowed his saliva.

"Hmm......" Yan Ran deliberately pondered for a moment before he said slowly: "First, the master can rebuild and expand the scale of the temple on the basis of the original Foguang Temple. When the new Foguang Temple stands in front of people, no one will dislike it for being dilapidated. Of course, if this is in normal times, it must be a lot of money, but now it can be reduced exponentially. And the opportunity to cut costs has already come. You think, there are famines all over the country, so at this time, there must be a lot of idle people, right? They are all fleeing for their lives, if someone can give a stutter, it is a great gift, even if the master only gives 50%, or even 40%, 30% of the usual salary, just to eat enough, will there be many people rushing to work? Moreover, because of the famine, the price of everything except food must be reduced, and it is also cheaper to buy materials at this time. ”

"Second, recruit newcomers from the orphan temple. Like the first item, if you can eat a full meal, you will be done. Once these orphans become monks in the monastery, they will also work for the monastery in turn, and they will no longer have to pay for the work. Third, if these people save their lives because of Foguang Temple, they will definitely be grateful to you and the monks in the temple, and no matter where they go in the future, they will give publicity to our temple. ”
