Zhou Zhenren said: "The Heavenly Master is polite, the Heavenly Master has been in charge of a province for twenty years, and he can't talk about his lack of experience. If there is, it's just that I'm not familiar with the True Master's Hall. Since I have entered the Treasure Scripture Pavilion, I belong to the same path, and if there is anything I need to ask, I will definitely not hide my secrets. ”

Dongfang Heavenly Master asked a few questions on the spot, and Zhao Ran listened to these questions beside him and couldn't help but roll his eyes. The Eastern Heavenly Master has controlled a province for twenty years, how can he not understand these questions?

But Zhou Zhenren was gradually brought into rhythm by the Oriental Heavenly Master, because most of these questions focused on the credibility value, which was a topic that Zhou Zhenren was familiar with and was very interested in.

Zhao Ran listened to it for half an hour on the side, waiting until the Eastern Heavenly Master slowly pulled the topic to Gu Kexue.

Zhou Zhenren reacted and said to the Eastern Heavenly Master: "Does the Heavenly Master want to talk to me about Gu Kexue? This person has nothing to talk about, he is full of evil, and not killing him is already an extrajudicial grace, according to my thoughts, the five masters and apprentices must be Fa-correct." ”

He said to Zhao Ran again: "Don't bring your elders over to intercede, I'm not targeting Dongfang Heavenly Master, it's useless for anyone to come, I don't agree." ”

Zhao Ran sighed and said, "Zhou Zhenren, when the True Master Hall was deliberating that day, you have read all those documents, right? You also know the secret locations of Xiu'an in various places, right? Who identified Sheng Duanming? How could it be possible to provide such detailed evidence and uproot the entire Xiu'an without Gu Kexue's cooperation?"

Zhou Zhenren snorted: "That's what he should do!"

Zhao Ran said: "Even if he should do it, but if he does it, is there also, well, a major meritorious service?"

Zhou Zhenren: "If you don't kill their master and apprentice, you are already compensating for them." ”

Zhao Ran said: "I went to see Guyun Jiaodao, to be honest, if you are locked up there for a lifetime, for the monks, life is better than death, how can you talk about compensation? I also know that their crimes are heavy, and how to punish them cannot be excessive, but I still want to explain one point, please Zhou Zhenren seriously consider it." ”

Dongfang Heavenly Master smiled and nodded on the side: "Originally, I hesitated, but after listening to Zhi Ran's thoughts, I came to see you, no matter how you decide in the end, let's listen to it first, after all, Zhi Ran is the party concerned." ”

Zhou Zhenren didn't want to hear it, if only Zhao Ran was there, she could immediately blow Zhao Ran away, but Dongfang Heavenly Master had given her enough face before, so it was not easy to turn her face at the moment, so she just snorted.

Zhao Ran hurriedly said: "On that day, Sanqing Pavilion and Dongji Pavilion agreed to lightly sentence Gu Kexue's master and apprentice and give him a path to reform, and it was because of this that they received Gu Kexue's full cooperation. Now that they have reversed their word, this is a major blow to the credibility of the two cabinets. ”

Zhou Zhenren said disdainfully: "What's the matter with me? Isn't it right that the credibility of the two of them should be damaged by the promises they made indiscriminately?"

Zhao Ran said earnestly: "Zhou Zhenren, but in the eyes of the monks of the world, who do the two pavilions represent? They will not say how the Sanqing Pavilion and the Dongji Pavilion do not keep their promises, they will only say that the general view does not emphasize integrity, and they will say that the door is not honest. This is the greatest damage to the general outlook and to the Daomen! What kind of image will a Taoist who does not keep its promises and a Taoist who does not stress honesty have in the hearts of the monks and the people of the world? Will there still be credibility in the future when our Daomen decrees are issued? Once the credibility of the Daomen is lost, how can we gain credibility?

Zhou Zhenren's heart moved, but his mouth was still very hard: "In short, what cause is planted, what effect is gained, just let Gu Kexue master and apprentice like this, how can you be worthy of so many show girls who died, how can you be worthy of so many show girls and their families in the spirit of heaven?"

Zhao Ran hurriedly said: "Of course you can't just let them go! Let them go like this, I, Zhao Zhiran, will be the first to refuse! I mean, do we have to give people a chance to mend their ways?"

Zhou Zhenren stared at Zhao Ran and was silent for a long time, Zhao Ran mustered up the courage to look at her for a long time, and I don't know how long it took, Dongfang Heavenly Master coughed lightly next to him, breaking the silence.

Zhou Zhenren suddenly spoke: "Okay, according to your wishes, supervise the labor, and send people to Yingtian to repair the bridge." But I have one condition, since you speak with faith, I will also talk to you about faith. I heard that you promised Chen Shandao that it would reach 20 million this year, is this good, if the credibility of Ying Tianfu reaches 25 million this year, I will agree to release him, if not, Zhao Zhiran, you have to obediently send me back to the Lonely Cloud Trap Road with these five masters and apprentices! Do you dare to accept this condition?"

Zhao Ran was stunned and asked, "How much is it today?"

Zhou Zhenren: "Five million and six hundred thousand." ”

Zhao Ran quickly calculated in his heart, it was almost the end of May now, and if he wanted to complete the final goal of 25 million, it meant that there were seven months left, and Ying Tianfu's credibility value must be completed 20 million.

Fortunately, Yingtian has a population of 3 million, and the huge population base brings the possibility for Zhao Ran to complete the goal.

The reconstruction of roads and drainage channels in the capital is about to be completed, and the increase compared with April and May can bring about 400,000 yuan per month, or 3 million in seven months.

In response to the civilized city creation activities in the eight counties of Tianfu, the competition will be concluded in more than a month, which can also bring about 3 million.

The continuation of the training ball tournament can also bring about four million in the remaining seven months.

If the bridge is launched, even if it is not formed, it is estimated that it will be able to get 5 million this year.

That's fifteen million, plus the current five million and six million, which is nearly five million short of Zhou Zhenren's conditions, so what should he do? He thought about a few plans on the spot.

In the summer, we will carry out a cool condolences to prevent heat stroke, and at the end of the year, we will carry out another New Year's Festival hardship condolences, and the scale will be larger, and the eight counties will go together, and it may be possible to increase the two assaults by one million.

Work hard, Xuantan Palace and the eight county courts will hold an additional Zhai Jiao once a month, which is estimated to add 500,000 to 800,000.

Before the official large-scale construction of the bridge, see if you can squeeze out the time to take the spirit demon to renovate the field canals in Long'an Mansion? This irrigation system of Ying Tianfu has been well maintained, this project is very simple, but in the hearts of the common people, it can get some benefits, with Zhao Ran's estimate of the population, compared with the Song Domain, he estimated that he can win 500,000 again.

And then ...... Do you want to hold a trade fair for Yingtian? This kind of lively and affordable conference that can also highlight the peaceful scene is a very good growth point, and Zhao Ran originally planned to take it out after being promoted to the abbot of Wenchangguan, but now, just release it in advance. For this item alone, Zhao Ran estimated that it should be no problem to increase by 1 million or even 1.5 million.

In this way, the hole from 20 million is only one or two million.

After calculating, Zhao Ran responded: "Transaction......! Xiaodao promised the real person, in the twenty-ninth year of Jiajing, the credibility of Tianfu should complete 20 million!"
