Chapter 13: The beauties go up the mountain in a group
Although the plan of the "Kyushu Barrel Industry" to transform Qingxuguan failed, this did not prevent them from developing the surrounding areas, which did not belong to Qingxuguan, and no one could stop them as long as the government authorized it. It didn't take long for the "Kyushu Barrel Industry" to turn the cold Mochou Peak into a lively scenic spot, the rugged mountain path into a frank development avenue, and the name of Qingxu Temple on the map to Qingxu Resort, so I had the home address at the beginning of the story: Block B, Unit 2, Qingxu Resort, No. 54, Development Avenue, Mochou Peak Scenic Area, Jiuqu Mountains.
After the Man in Black incident, several other big businesses that were interested in investing in Qingxuguan also retreated, and developed cooperative relations with the monks' temples and nunnery on several nearby hills, which made the Qingxuguan in disrepair even more incompatible with the surrounding beautiful environment.
However, the fortune was not completely severed, and because of my deeds, Master was awarded the title of "Model of Mentorship" by the imperial court and was rewarded with one hundred taels of silver. The "Taiping Prefecture Chronicles" included him, calling him a famous educator, thinker, and religious reformer of our time, praising him for not eating and drinking, not flattering the world, and not sticking to tradition, while diligently educating the next generation, while developing agriculture and animal husbandry on his own - this is not a fabrication out of thin air, and Qingxuguan did grow a few acres of vegetables and raise a few old hens.
On behalf of the imperial court, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and the priest of the prince of the country was too angry, and he was simple and obedient, not shocked or disturbed, and looked very low-key. After reading the commendation order, Master Mao paced around the hall, sometimes looking up at the broken and faded murals, sometimes looking at the statues of the gods that had been peeled off the paint and broken shapes, sometimes sniffing at the moldy and mottled columns, and at the end, with a long sigh, he sank into the seat, his fingers rhythmically tapped the tray containing a hundred taels of silver, looked at the master with a look full of pity and ambiguity, and asked faintly:
"These, is that enough?"
The master bowed slightly: "Not enough." ”
The corners of Lord Mao's mouth flashed with a knowing smile: "In your opinion, how much should I give?"
Master spread out his five fingers: "How about this number?"
Master Mao's face changed slightly: "It's inappropriate, right?"
The master shook his clothes with a bitter face: "Poor and poor, so poor that there is only this Taoist robe left." ”
Master Mao laughed: "Haha, I miss you for being funny, it's cheap this time." ”
Master is really good at trading, and in a few words, he turned a hundred taels of silver into five hundred taels, and picked up four hundred taels for nothing, which made us admire it so much.
Then I saw Master Mao pick up the one hundred taels of silver on the table, and then take the four hundred taels of silver tickets from the master's hand, and walked away.
Everyone was dumbfounded. The master wiped the beads of sweat oozing from his forehead: "Whew! ”
"Master, you are confused, he took our silver. "The fourth senior brother's eyes are about to fall out.
"What do you know," the master explained, "just now Master Mao asked, 'Is it enough?', which means that this hundred taels is enough to honor him, of course I said it is not enough, and then he asked me to quote, I said five hundred taels, and he was obviously not satisfied, so I had to cry poor and make him happy, so I was lucky." ”
"How can this be reasonable!" the fifth senior brother was furious, rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush out.
The master grabbed him: "This reason is not in fists and feet. ”
The fifth senior brother asked rhetorically: "Then we consider ourselves unlucky?"
Master replied, "Have you ever heard of the 'Five Benevolence Sect'?"
We all shook our heads, and the second senior brother said, "I've heard of the 'Five Poisons Sect'. ”
"That was their new name after they offended this Lord Mao," Master said quietly, "Back then, the 'Five Benevolence Sect' was famous for its benevolence, benevolence, filial piety, faith, benevolence, virtue and benevolence, so it was called Wuren." Because of his many good deeds, the imperial court sent this Lord Mao to the door to commend him. Everyone knows that every time Master Mao does this errand, he will ask the recipient for at least 888 taels of 'thanksgiving gifts', but the leader of the 'Wuren Sect', Shi Wuren, refuses to pay the 'thanksgiving gifts'. As a result, since then, the local government has organized visits and studies every now and then, eating theirs, using theirs, and living theirs, and being stunned to give the 'Five Benevolence Sect' to the point that the chickens and dogs are not left behind. Later, the 'Wurenjiao' was seized because the unique tonic 'Wurensan' was found to have excessive heavy metals, and was convicted of five felonies of producing, storing drugs, transporting drugs, selling drugs, and poisoning, and since then has been wearing the hat of the 'Five Poisons Sect'. All this is just Master Mao's kung fu, so we only used five hundred taels of silver to save the day, but in fact, we earned more than three hundred taels, so we should be happy. ”
The fourth senior brother gasped: "What's the origin of this Lord Mao?"
Master said, "He is in charge of the world's most authoritative tasting organization, the 'Moon Egg Review', and is responsible for commenting on the people and things in the world on the fifteenth day of each month, judging the good and evil of people, and judging the good and bad of things. The evaluation results are reflected through eggs, with double yolk eggs representing the best and rotten eggs being the bottom. The local government used this as a basis to reward and punish Zang. So no matter who you are, as long as you are on the 'Moon Egg Review', you will be worth a hundred times, or you will be ruined. Those who open black shops and sell counterfeit drugs are corrupt and pervert the law, in order not to be targeted by the 'Moon Egg Review', they will not hesitate to spend their money. There are many more people who spend a lot of money, just begging Lord Mao to give him a double yolk egg. ”
I sighed with emotion: "Thanks to your cleverness, Master, otherwise, we would have to repeat the mistakes of the 'Five Benevolence Sect' and be turned into a 'shhhh ”
In order to avoid future troubles, the master sent the senior brother to accompany Master Mao to visit the nearby scenic spots. We all coveted this beauty, but only Duan was incompetent, because he was born into a famous family, his appearance was outstanding, and when he didn't beat me, he flowed with a natural and elegant aristocratic temperament from the ends of his hair to the toenails, and most importantly, he had a lot of money and a generous hand, so that he could make the guests have a good time without having to ask the master for reimbursement of the reception expenses.
Three days later, a large group of girls with bright makeup and beautiful clothes suddenly appeared on the mountain road. My brothers and I gathered around the onlookers, leaning against the window and riding the wall, out of the body, thinking that they were the newly recruited staff of the Hot Spring Villa, but they walked straight to Qingxuguan. I can't describe what they look like, because it's dizzying—admiring a flower is still namely, and falling into a flower will inevitably make you dizzy.
The leader was a eunuch, with a blue robe and a jade belt, holding a dusty hand, walking more twisted than the girls, talking more than the girls, two small dark yellow bells pinned to his waist, accompanied by the enchanting small broken steps tinkling. He twisted to the door and flashed his waist card to the deacon, who turned out to be the guardian of the new draft girls.
The fifth senior brother snickered: "The division of labor in the court is really funny, and the guardian uses a eunuch, so if the guardian sends a taishou?"
The third senior brother said: "The eunuch was sent to do this errand to prevent the guardian from stealing from himself, and the emperor only reassured those who were incapable. From a dialectical point of view, the reuse of eunuchs can not only reassure the emperor, but also reduce the number of the second generation of officials and satisfy the people.
In fact, stealing fish is not uncommon in the lonely, empty and cold harem, but what the emperor can't tolerate is that someone tastes the fishy before he speaks. So when choosing a concubine, the purity of the body is an important indicator, but the appearance of a person makes the procedure useless. This person's name is Jin Sanbian, and he invented a plaster that can easily turn Pan Jinlian into a yellow flower girl. The emperor was very annoyed by this and completely lost his trust in love, so there is also a saying on the rivers and lakes that Jin Sanbian was actually assassinated by the master of Ouchi.
When he was still the crown prince, the young master arranged for someone to teach him the six arts, and asked him which of the "Lile Shooting Imperial Books" he wanted to learn first. The prince remembered the story of "The Counting Girls of the Night" in one of his favorite ancient books, so he chose "Yu" with great interest.
Later, after paying the price of killing and wounding thirteen riders and fifty famous horses, the prince, who had not even learned how to "dance", categorically gave up the royal car and returned to his old profession to return to the royal maiden. After ascending to the throne, his need for this area increased day by day, so the beauties of the states found an opportunity to realize the value of life. In fact, beauties have a lot of opportunities to realize the value of life in any era, but this time the opportunities are unprecedentedly rich.
In order to maximize the exploitation of the scarce resource of beauties, the emperor burst out with wisdom that was more than 100 times higher than when he was governing the country, and pioneered the addition of a "Xunfang Division" under the household department, which was responsible for collecting all kinds of beauties throughout the country, and included the work of local governments in recommending and reporting beautiful talents into the performance evaluation, as an important basis for appointing and dismissing rewards and punishments, which greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of officials.
At the same time, in order to make scientific and efficient use of the existing beauty resources, the emperor personally operated, formulated a set of fine management system, at first the palace beauties were classified according to their personalities, respectively, into the "gentle group", "melancholy group", "wild group", "lively group", "romantic group", "cold group", "shy group" and other more than a dozen large groups, and later more and more beauties, the classification is becoming more and more refined, the origin of the specialty hobby constellation and other factors are also taken into account, and through the pinyin abbreviation into a unique code. Now before the emperor goes to bed, the eunuch will push out a ten-zhang long table with pulleys, which is densely filled with green cards engraved with codes. The emperor flipped over a "TPLYFMSY" sign, which meant to order this cold and plump Pisces concubine from Taiping Prefecture to sleep, and people who did not understand the mystery could easily misunderstand this brand as the trademark of a certain Western fashion brand that had just been launched.
This systematic classification method is nearly a thousand years earlier than the decimal book classification system invented by the Westerner Dewey, and has been praised by the academic community as "the most humane great invention in the history of human evolution". >
