Chapter 676
The "Scattered Wealth Boy" sprinkled money all the way, and the corners of the monk's mouth were about to crack to the back of his head. Li Xiao followed the child all the way, anyway, the tour guide who didn't spend money didn't rub it off.
Finally entered the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and the monk Zhike introduced the "Scattered Wealth Boy" to a monk who wore a robe and looked quite high-level. Then after saying hello to the "Fortune Boy", he left satisfied.
Because Li Xiao and the child have been following behind the "Scattered Wealth Boy", the high-ranking monk regarded Li Xiao as a group of "Scattered Wealth Boys".
"Amitabha! The poor monk is enlightened! If the donor has any wishes, you can talk to the little monk. If the little monk can do it, it will definitely be as the donor wishes. The monk recited the Buddha's name to the "Fortune Boy".
"It turned out to be Wujing Zen Master, and the villain has been promoted to see a Zen master. The villain wanted to meet the abbot master, and he also hoped that Zen Master Wujing would help introduce him. Nian Yousheng said, taking out a silver ticket from his sleeve.
Because of the proximity, Li Xiao could see clearly. This is a silver ticket embedded with gold edges, and all silver tickets with gold edges in Daming Bank are at least 1,000 silver dollars. I didn't expect this guy to be so generous. A one-time reward of 1,000 silver dollars, just to see the abbot master. In contrast, those who have just rewarded the monk are really a small amount of money.
What's so special about this old monk, the meeting fee is so high. One day, let Ai Husheng help inquire about how much his meeting fee is.
Wujing glanced at the silver ticket in his hand and seemed to be quite satisfied with the numbers on the silver ticket. Facing Nian Yousheng, he clasped his hands together and saluted: "Master Abbot is old, and he hasn't seen many guests recently." However, the donor is sincere and sincere, and the poor monk will help spread it, and if the abbot master is willing to see it, it is also the blessing of the donor. ”
"Thank you, Master Wujing!" Nian Yousheng hurriedly gave a gift.
Master Wujing turned around and went out, and it didn't take long for him to turn around and come back, and he saluted Nian Yousheng: "Master Abbot is invited." ”
Nian Yousheng walked inside, and Li Xiao followed behind. Wujing thought they were together, and didn't say much.
After turning two corners, I came to a rather elegant small courtyard. The courtyard is cold and snowy, and it is a large piece of red. When you walk to the gate of the courtyard, you can smell a refreshing and elegant fragrance.
There was a little monk at the gate of the courtyard, who was about eleven or twelve years old, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly presented a stack of silver dollars.
"Donor! The poor monk will send it here, and when he comes out in a while, the poor monk will send it to him. Wujing just sent it to the gate of the courtyard and didn't continue to go inside.
The little monk weighed the silver dollar in his hand, looked at Nian Yousheng, and then looked at Li Xiao and Li Lin behind Nian Yousheng.
"Come in with me." The little monk said a word, turned around and led the way.
Just walked into the old monk's meditation room, Li Xiao felt the heat on the pavement. The floor of the meditation room is made of marble tiles, and the floor is wiped clean to reflect the human figure. The furniture in the meditation room, a water of rosewood. The ornaments on it are either jade or gold. Li Xiao watched it for a long time, and it was the first time he had seen many things.
This fucking meditation room is more luxurious than the emperor's bedroom in the Forbidden City.
In the meditation room sat an old monk with a white beard and eyebrows, and his bald head was shiny and shiny. When he saw three people coming in, he immediately said, "Serve tea!" ”
The little monk immediately walked out and brought two cups of tea in a short time. A cup was given to Nian Yousheng, and a cup was served to the abbot, Li Xiao and Li Lin didn't even have a place to sit and could only stand in the abbot's room.
"I don't know what the donor wants to come to my Great Mercy and Grace Temple, if the old man can do it, he will definitely make the donor satisfied and go." The abbot didn't drink tea either, and said directly.
"Don't hide it from the master, the villain wants to contract the construction of the Bahe Bridge, and asks the master to help." After Nian Yousheng finished speaking, he took out three silver tickets with gold edges from his sleeve.
The abbot glanced at the three silver tickets, then closed his eyes. "What the donor invited, I'm afraid it is beyond the reach of the old monk. The donor should inquire separately! ”
"The villain listened to what Lord Wang of the Yamen said, the abbot master has profound Buddhism, I am afraid that this matter can only be supported by you in this Xi'an city. If it is successful, the villain will not forget the kindness of the master. The little meaning is a little incense lamp oil money for the villain. Nian Yousheng said, and took out two more gold-edged silver tickets.
"Oh, it turned out to be entrusted by Wang Chanyue. The old man couldn't save Lord Wang's face, the old man knew about it, and left the address at Wujing for a while. Within three days, there will be a response from the old man. If things don't work out, the money will naturally be returned to the donor. ”
The abbot really has a style, and he didn't wait for Nian Yousheng to speak, and waved his hand like a dead branch: "Send off!" ”
Li Xiao's head was bruised, and he had just seen that the bribe accepted by the monk was thousands of silver coins. The Ministry of Engineering has calculated the budget for each project. Giving away so much money, there is only one way to make a profit!
Cut corners!
Thinking that he was going around to get money, but was pulled into his pocket by these black-hearted guys, Li Xiao was so angry that his head smoked. Hold down the fire at the moment, but it is only three days, but I want to see who will spend this Baqiao project. If it really falls into the hands of this surnamed Niu...... it is impossible to say that Lao Tzu will take a few heads to kill chickens and monkeys again.
I hope these monkeys can be scared, and if they can't, Li Xiao doesn't mind a big purge. The law of the land is not enough to deter people's hearts, and I hope that the butcher's knife dripping blood and the broken corpse can be deterred.
Nian Yousheng saluted the old monk of the abbot, glanced at Li Xiao behind him, and walked out of the abbot's meditation room.
"Little master, let's just go out by ourselves." Nian Yousheng gave a salute to the little monk who came out to see off the guests, and the grandson pretended to be full.
"Oh! Passing through the Moon Gate is the road to the Daxiong Treasure Hall. It is estimated that he is disgusted that the money given by Nian Yousheng is less, and the little monk has an indifferent attitude, pointing to the moon door and going back to the warm room.
Seeing the little monk shrink into the house, Nian Yousheng knelt down in front of Li Xiao with a "poof".
"...... are you?" Li Xiao looked at Nian Yousheng with some puzzlement, and didn't know which one this "wealth boy" was making trouble.
"Handsome! You have seen what has just happened, please return us to Xi'an a fair world. After Nian Yousheng finished speaking, he prostrate at Li Xiao's feet and didn't dare to look up.
"Do you know who I am?" Li Xiao looked at his dress and didn't see any flaws.
"When the big guy got out of the hotel, the villain saw the identity of the big handsome. Let's ask this Xi'an City, who can labor the governor to pick up people at the train station in person. I borrowed the car of the abbot of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple!
So the villain has been guarding the side door of the hotel, thinking that if the handsome goes out, he will definitely expose the shady scenes of Xi'an officialdom to the handsome. ”
"So you followed me, so you spent thousands of silver coins to expose the shady scenes." Li Xiao looked left and right, this guy didn't seem to be that rich.
"Don't dare to deceive the marshal, these thousands of silver coins are all my belongings. When I went back tonight, the whole family didn't have dinner yet. However, in order to expose the shady scenes of Xi'an officialdom to the marshal, even if it is worth breaking the family. ”
"It's such a big feud?" The broken family also wants to pull these monks off the horse, and this hatred is not ordinary. Li Xiao didn't understand why Nian Yousheng wanted to do the thing of killing a thousand enemies and losing a thousand or two of his own.
"In the past few years, the villain has been drilling up and down. finally contracted two projects, but when the construction was about to start, it was forcibly pryed away by the monks of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple. Relying on its wealth and power, the Great Ci'en Temple wantonly bribed officials in Xi'an, and could even decide the promotion of officials.
In this road and bridge construction project, whoever pays more money will manipulate the package to whomever it is. So much so that the government issued a contract for the project, and the businessmen did not go to the government first, but first came to this Great Mercy and Grace Temple to donate incense.
If they donate the money for incense, they will get the project. In order to make money, they cut corners recklessly. The road that was built for a year began to turn over the pit after a winter. The officials all got their money, and they said that it was due to the overloading of passing wagons.
So the imperial court had to continue to allocate funds to build roads, and they continued to make money and continue to be greedy. It is still difficult for the common people to travel, and the silver of the imperial court was cheated by them in this way. ”
Listening to Nian Yousheng's words, Li Xiao clenched his fists in anger, and the joints were frighteningly white.
"If the marshal doesn't believe what the villain said, just see if the project falls into the hands of the villain in three days. If it is really the villain who has obtained this project, please ask the handsome man to clean up the officials and give me a sunny day for the people of Xi'an. ”
"Good!" Li Xiao nodded, he had waited for three days.
Pulling Li Lin out of the Great Ci'en Temple, Li Lin followed his father sensibly and did not mention the matter of ascending the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
In the past three days, Li Xiao has a full schedule. inspected the Xi'an Arsenal, and personally cut the ribbon for the Xi'an Arsenal that has been working overtime to produce you. Because of its proximity to the front line, the Xi'an Arsenal mainly produces ammunition.
After all, it is much closer to supply ammunition to the front line from here than from Liaodong.
The Liao army has always paid attention to the development of firepower in wars, and the consumption of shells and bullets is very large. Next year, Hami will be attacked, and the consumption of ammunition is definitely not a small amount.
The terracotta warriors and horses have not been dug up yet, but Huaqing Pond is there. Under Sun Chuanting's arrangement, Li Xiao and Li Lin Ye took a bath in the bathhouse that was said to have been used by Emperor Tang Ming and Yang Guifei.
I don't feel that the water in Huaqing Pond is better than that of my hometown in Liaodong, which may be the reason why people feel that their things are good.
Three days passed in a flash, and when Li Xiao was having breakfast, Shunzi brought Nian Yousheng in.
Nian Yousheng was very polite, and knelt down without saying a word when he saw Li Xiao.
"Handsome! This is the compatibility of the feudal division and the yamen, and with this compatibility, the project of building the Baqiao is a villain. Nian Yousheng knelt on the ground and lifted Kanhe high above his head.
Li Xiao was eating snow-white steamed buns and drinking millet from northern Shaanxi. Taizu once said that the small rice in northern Shaanxi raises people. If you drink it in your mouth, it's just not as delicious as rice porridge. Thinking about it, maybe Taizu really couldn't drink rice porridge back then.
Li Lin sat on the side, his cheeks bulging like a squirrel. Sucking and drinking millet porridge!
This kid is so good, not a picky eater! Li Xiao likes Li Lin very much, and people's squeamishness actually starts with diet.
Glancing at this Kanhe, Li Xiao knew that this Kanhe must be true. This year, there are eight dares, and they don't dare to deceive themselves. Unless he's crazy, or has lived enough.
"Three days is three days, and the efficiency is really high." Chewing steamed buns in his mouth, Li Xiao gritted his teeth with hatred.
Nian Yousheng knelt on the ground, not daring to move.
"Junko! Go and tell Sun Chuanting that I won't go to see the Xi'an Textile Factory today. Lin'er wants to climb the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, you ask him to arrange it. Li Xiao ignored Nian Yousheng, who was kneeling on the ground, and commanded Shunzi.
"No!" Seeing Li Xiao's gloomy face, Shunzi knew that Sun Chuanting and this Great Ci'en Temple were going to be unlucky.
Sun Chuanting received a notice from Shunzi and immediately began to arrange. He also understands that Li Xiao is such a son, and the country he has laid now will definitely be his son in the future. More than a year has passed since the Wumen incident, and the emperor has been dead for more than a year, but the imperial court has no intention of appointing a new emperor at all.
The country cannot be without a monarch for a day, but the current Ming Empire has been without an emperor for more than 500 days. The power of the imperial court is firmly in the hands of Li Xiao, Sun Chengzong and Zhang Huangyan.
Sun Chengzong is at this age, and no matter how hard his body is, he can't live for many years. Li Xiao is less than thirty this year, and the future master of the Ming Empire knows who it is with his ass.
If you get this one right, it is equivalent to mixing up a long-term meal ticket for future generations. This thigh must be held, held to death.
But he didn't know that the biggest thunder he stepped on in his life was about to explode. The result of the explosion is likely to be that he didn't even have scum left.
Li Xiao stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass of the hotel and saw a group of soldiers driving into the Great Ci'en Temple. The traders on both sides of the road began to close, but the poor ones who had just come out of the stall had to close their doors and wait for their big man to go before they could continue to do business.
It seems that this kind of thing has been a bird since ancient times.
"Dad! Can I go up to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda today? Li Lin asked by tugging at Li Xiao's sleeve. When no one is around, Li Lin is called Li Xiao's father. Only when there are people around, will they call Daddy.
Li Xiao always felt that it was strange for his son to call his father. He still likes the title Dad!
"Yes! Surely, don't you see? Those people are clearing the field for us. Li Xiao pointed to the busy people in the distance.
"Dad, why do you have to clear the scene when you go out?" Li Lin was a little puzzled by the busy people in the distance, but he actually liked the lively streets outside the Great Ci'en Temple.
"Some people are bent on scolding you, and they are afraid that someone will harm me." If it had been before, Li Xiao might not have said anything. But now, there is a fire in my heart.
When I thought of spending money in the capital, I gritted my teeth all day long. But these bastards actually filled their pockets like this, and unscrupulously put the money of the court in their pockets, and Li Xiao hated it so much.
After about an hour, Sun Chuanting rode a carriage to the downstairs of the hotel.
"Look! The person who befriended your Lao Tzu came, on the ground of Xi'an, he was the emperor of the soil. Li Xiao glanced at Sun Chuanting and laughed contemptuously.
