Chapter Ninety-One: A Guest from Dragon and Tiger Mountain

Zhao Ran suppressed the fire, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet a few pilgrims, choosing incense, singing chimes, and chanting for them. These pilgrims all knew Zhao Ran, and when they saw that it was Zhao Xianshi, their hearts became more and more pious, and after the incense, they begged Zhao Xianshi to bless him, and Zhao Ran was satisfied one by one.

After finishing this work, sending out a few respectful pilgrims, Zhao Ran turned back, walked through the Jade Emperor Palace, and went to the dormitory to find Jin Jiu and others.

As soon as I entered the squatter's house, I heard someone urgently asking: "Your account is not right, the construction of the road on the eastern front took three months, and the grain consumption was 1,580 stones.

Listening to Jin Jiu's voice again, he defended: "Junshan Temple and Jin Ji Rice Shop bought grain at this price, and they didn't spend a penny more!

The man said: "What is the current price? Forty-five wen for doumi! What is the price for your purchase? It is still forty-five wen, and there is no cost in transporting grain to Junshan? How is it possible? Not to mention that there is only 80 miles of road, last year there was a locust plague in Dengzhou, and the left is close to the state government to support, I have calculated, the average 100 miles of land is reduced by half of it, and that is still a plain, how can you lose half of it in these 80 miles! Unless you Junshan Temple has a large storage artifact, you can transport grain to the battlefield of Baima Mountain like the Daomen Dispatch Department, but can you afford it? That's the country's heavy weapon, and I don't believe you Zhao Miaozhu have this kind of magic weapon if you kill me......"

"Jinji rice shop is packaged, and the depreciation is their business......"

"Does Junshan Temple have a stake in the Jinji shop? You just said that it accounts for 40 percent! Let me calculate it for you, the Jin Ji shop accounts for 70 percent of the shares of the Jin Ji rice shop, so Junshan Temple accounts for 2 percent of the Jin Ji rice shop, how can it be said that it is just a matter of the Jin Ji rice shop?"

"In short, I spent so much silver, and I didn't have a penny more!"

"If you calculate it like this, the income of Jinji Rice Shop at the end of the year will have to reduce this piece of depreciation......"

Zhao Ran listened to Daqi, and said in his heart, could it be that Jin Jiu invited a bookkeeper to come over?

When I entered the room, I saw five people sitting around the table, the table was full of various account books and record books, Jin Jiu, Lin Shuangwen, Jin Shopkeeper, Qu Fenghe were all there, and several of them were surrounding a Taoist priest who looked about the same age as Zhao Ran himself, even if he was older, he was not a few years older.

Several people hurriedly got up, and Jin Jiu said: "Senior brother is back! Introduce me to senior brother, this is Wang Daochang from Longhu Mountain, Wang Daochang is a powerful person, just two days after coming, I have already helped correct many mistakes in many documents of our Junshan Temple......

The man got up and bowed: "Is it Zhao Miaozhu? ”

Zhao Ran was stunned, and was a little vigilant in his heart, could it be that this is the person sent by Longhu Mountain to compare with him?

"Poor Dao Zhao Zhiran, I don't know which lifelong brother Wang Dao Chang is in Longhu Mountain?" He is still strange, he has not heard of the word "Wu" or the word "Sen".

Wang Wusen said: "The poor road is a side line of Longhu Mountain, and it is not included in the family tree. By the way, Zhao Miaozhu, Poor Dao came for two days, and found that the record in your dossier was that the total number of Dingkou in the nineteenth year of Jiajing was 8,779, but Poor Dao remembered that in the "Credibility Book" issued by the General View, the credibility value of Junshan Temple was 336,200 Gui, so if it is calculated, the per capita value will reach more than 38 Gui, will this number be too high?"

Zhao Ran was very surprised, and also had a great interest in this Wang Wusen, in this world, this year, it is not strange to calculate the average value, many times, the government statistics of local mu yield, and occasionally use this concept.

But as far as Daomen is concerned, Zhao Ran has already found in Ye Xueguan's Sichuan Provincial Deliberation that no one has ever calculated the credibility value per capita, so as soon as he heard Wang Wusen talk about the concept of "38 gui per capita", he was willing to discuss this issue with him.

"You can't count this number like that, in fact, the believers of Junshan Temple are not only more than 8,700 people, but also include some surrounding areas, such as along the northwest line, along the east line, and even some believers in Qingkou Town. My guess is that there were about 12,000 people. ”

As soon as Zhao Ran finished speaking, Wang Wusen opened his mouth and said: "If you add it up, the per capita credibility value will reach twenty-eight gui, but even at this level, it is far higher than other places." Do you know the Heavenly Master Temple at the foot of Longhu Mountain......"

"The Qingcheng Temple at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain is even higher. ”

"No, unlike Qingcheng Temple, Tianshi Temple mainly relies on the people in its own jurisdiction to provide credibility, that is the temple with the most incense that I have seen when I have traveled so many places, but even so, it has only reached twenty-six gui per capita. ”

"Speaking of this question, I would like to ask Daoist Wang, what do you think is the biggest factor affecting the level of the per capita value? This is a question that I have been pondering hard for the past few days. I Junshan Temple lives a rich life and the people are comfortable, so the per capita credibility value is the first in Sichuan Province, I originally thought that let the people live a good life where everyone is well fed and warmly clothed, which is the only way to improve the per capita credibility value, but ......"

Wang Wusen clapped his hands and praised: "That's a very good question! But that's not the case, right?"

Zhao Ran said: "Not bad. Take Lizhou as an example, the living standards of the mountain people there are extremely simple, and they are not worse than my Junshan Temple. I once talked to a temple priest there, where most of the mountain people lived in simple thatched huts, and some even lived in grottoes, and the family only had a rag to cover their bodies, and whoever wanted to go out was wrapped in it. Eating also depends on luck, if you are lucky to hit a good prey, dozens of people will have a full meal, and if you are unlucky, the whole family will be hungry for two days......"

Wang Wusen asked: "But their per capita credibility is very high, right?"

Zhao Ran nodded: "Yes, it's almost half of my Junshan Temple, which is higher than many rich places." They said that the more dangerous they are, the more they are convinced, the poorer they are, and the more devout they are. ”

Wang Wusen said: "Indeed, you have also discovered this problem. Those who live in abundance must have more credibility? Those who live in poverty must have less credibility? I once talked to a high Taoist in Lushan about this issue, and it is not convenient for me to disclose it to you, he told me a number, the wealth of Xia is far greater than that of Tibet, and Dingkou is also twice that of Tibet, but do you know the credibility of these two countries in the eighteenth year of Jiajing?"

Zhao Ran was very interested, and urged repeatedly: "Tell me quickly!"

"Buddhism is measured by Ju Xuan and Luo, and one Ju Xuan is one hundred Luo, which is equivalent to the ten Gui of our Daomen. Let me tell you this, the credibility of the Xia Kingdom is about 22 million gizzards, while the Tibetan kingdom is 18 million gizzards! Not much worse than the Xia Kingdom. From this point of view, it is understandable that Tibet can produce a Buddha every 40 years. ”
