Chapter 119: Making Money
The sticks flew in front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace. Zhu Su's Wang Wei are only half-grown teenagers, and heaven and earth are not afraid, how can they be afraid of gods and Buddhas. directly put Yao Guangxiao in front of the palace and began to execute. The sound of the fifty military sticks beating down and the sticks slapping the meat made Zhu Su turn his face sideways and couldn't bear to look at it directly. Yao Guangxiao only folded his hands and chanted the Buddhist scriptures in a low voice, and the fifty military sticks were beaten down without any resistance, and he didn't even snort in pain except for frowning slightly.
"What a tough monk!" Even Li Jinglong was a little impressed.
"Something." Zhu Su couldn't help but be a little shocked. It is said that those who commit great treachery and evil will be wise and courageous. Looking at Yao Guangxiao, you can see that this is true. "Monk, do you regret provoking this king?"
"Amitabha. The little monk should have been punished for offending His Royal Highness, but it is better to say that after receiving this punishment, he can still achieve the wish of the little monk to be in His Highness, and the little monk should also thank His Highness for his bodhisattva heart. Yao Guangxiao folded his hands and bowed slowly, his face had recovered the feeling of neither humility, nor arrogance, nor joy nor sorrow, but the sound of blood dripping on the bluestone slab at the wound came to Zhu Su's ears, which was extremely crisp.
Crazy, all crazy. Being a groom is obviously humiliating, where can it be called a master? was beaten with fifty military sticks, and he actually stood up and saluted like a nobody, just to pretend to be a boy, Zhu Su wanted to ask, is it worth it?
If it were him, if someone dared to beat him with a military stick, he would definitely hate him until his teeth itched. This demon monk is still thanking himself?
“…… Go down the hill and return to the village! ”
When they came, there were so many people, and when they went, there was one more. When carrying the fat abbot's wealth saved over the years down the mountain, Li Jinglong took the fat abbot's hand and said that he would come to visit next time, the fat abbot was obviously dripping blood, but he still squeezed a smile and said welcome, often come, etc., as for how the fat man cursed this group of robbers Zhu Su in his heart, it is unknown.
Although Yao Guangxiao was able to stand up strongly, it was obviously much more difficult to go down the mountain. Reluctantly walked two steps, the two Wu Wangwei couldn't bear it, and seeing that Zhu Su didn't stop him, they picked him up and went down the mountain. Yao Guangxiao thanked him and was comfortably held by these two Wu Wangwei, Zhu Su didn't know if this conspirator was sincerely grateful or just casual polite words.
This guy has to be watched. It's so tight that if you want to kill him, you can kill him at will.
After descending the mountain, Xiangdeng and Li Wenzhong waited beside the mountain road. Li Wenzhong saw that the twenty Wu Wangwei were going up and down the mountain with helmets and armor, and they didn't look tired, so he nodded with great satisfaction. Seeing Yao Guangxiao, who was being carried down the mountain, he only thought that Zhu Su had taught a monk in a temple, and he didn't bother to ask. The descendants of the old Zhu family, Mo said that if he only taught one monk, it was not a big deal to set fire to the Bird Temple.
The so-called not close to the monk's way is a good person. Those monks who pretend to be gods and ghosts have a few good ones. The only best monk in the world has already returned to the world, and after he returned to the world, the rest of the pure place of Buddhism is all flies and dogs.
Xiang Deng even smiled as he looked at the boxes of cages carried down the mountain. I didn't expect that the temple was worth so many things for a rent, and so much money could last for a few more days.
Of course, these coins are not used to sit and eat. Zhu Su did not charge the money into the treasury, but took the money to ask the craftsmen to build a few new kilns, and found Li Wenzhong, "Brother Bao'er needs your help with something." Can you find me some trusted veterans to make their home here? They are also asked to bring their families to settle here, and they can cultivate the land here to their heart's content. I don't take a penny for rent. ”
"Veteran? What do you want those people for? Most of these people are disabled and useless, you have placed many orphans in the army and the village is not able to turn around, do you want to take a penny, isn't this the meat of the slaughter? I can't do that. Li Wenzhong shook his head.
"Brother Bao'er's words are wrong. The world thinks that those disabled veterans are useless and hateful, but they do not know that they are the most respectable and lovely people in the world with me, and many of them can only sit and eat without knowing what will become of them with the reward of being discharged from the army. ”
"And my little brother, I am timid, there is such a group of soldiers who are loyal to the Ming Dynasty and have shed blood for the Ming Dynasty, and they live in Zuo near the night and sleep peacefully. Left and right, here is also to recruit displaced people, and the fertile water does not flow to outsiders, so it is better to recruit those wounded soldiers and military households. Don't worry about turnover, and soon Zhuangzi will have a lot of gold and silver in his account. ”
Li Wenzhong, who said Zhu Su's words, couldn't help but be greatly moved. His biggest heart problem in this northern expedition was that he failed to get rid of the Beiyuan Sheji in one fell swoop when he risked his life, and won a wife and son for the brothers. The imperial court believed that this expedition was without merit and without even ordinary silver rewards, which led to some brothers who fought desperately but had to quit the army because of their injuries, and after birth and death, they could not even obtain enough money to cover the rest of their lives.
Many of them were severely disabled and unable to farm. Since he was discharged from the army and returned home, he had to rely on the money from this Weibo to sit and eat nothing. The good man who fought for the country ended up like this, and Li Wenzhong sometimes thought of it, and he had to toss and turn with guilt, and he couldn't sleep all night.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Su also cared about these people, and Li Wenzhong was greatly moved. This younger brother, who is still short, is now a responsible adult in his eyes. He laughed: "Okay, in that case, I'll gather those wounded soldiers for you." ”
"They must be happier to be together with the old robes, rather than to stay in their respective guards and decay. You brought them in, could it be that there is some way for them to help make money? ”
"I can't hide anything from Brother Bao'er." Zhu Su quietly sent a sycophant first. "Yes, I do have some crafts here that I can teach these veterans. Let them have a new skill to support their families, and they can also add some income to Zhuangzi. ”
"Oh?" Li Wenzhong said curiously. "What new ideas do you have? After the construction of these kilns and the resettlement of the wounded soldiers and their families, I am afraid that the money in the Zhuangzi will be exhausted. Even if you want to burn something to sell, I'm afraid you won't have the money to buy the ingredients. Anyway, what are you going to burn? ”
"Raw materials...... Isn't there one here? Zhu Su squatted down and grabbed a handful of sand. The delicate sand fluttered with the wind with his open palm, and Li Wenzhong looked puzzled: "Raw materials? Where is it? Didn't you mean sand? ”
"Brother Bao'er, little brother, there is a big business going to be started here. I wonder if Brother Bao'er is interested in mixing in a share, and also adding an extra piece of income to the Cao Guo Mansion? Zhu Su smiled.
