Chapter 267 Another Woman 【Subscription】
"Abbot Fangzheng, how did this bamboo forest come about?" Wang Yougui ate the bamboo shoots, his eyes almost turned into crescent moons of laughter. The bamboo shoots were so delicious, better than anything he had ever eaten!
Fangzheng looked up at the sky and said, "Come from where it should come from." There is no way, some things cannot be explained clearly, so let's just make up nonsense.
"Uh...Your kid still told me this kind of roundabout talk, that's fine, I won't ask any more. Let's talk about business..." Wang Yougui said seriously.
Fangzheng smiled slightly and said, "Benefactor, you came here for the bamboo forest, right?"
"Yes, this bamboo forest is so beautiful. Not to mention the bamboo shoots, the bamboo itself is very valuable. I have compared various bamboos, and none of them can grow so crystal clear, like jade. And, the point is , It’s still delicious!” Wang Yougui said.
Fangzheng said, "And then?"
"Abbot Fangzheng, look, is it okay for our village to develop the bamboo forest? Selling some bamboo and bamboo shoots is definitely a big profit. Bamboo grows fast, and it can grow again after being cut..." Speaking of this, Wang Yougui rubbed his hands. Started, and smiled a little embarrassedly. This mountain was given to Yizhi Temple as a barren mountain in the past, but now that it has benefits, he came to ask for it, and he felt that it was not enough given his thick skin.
Fangzheng smiled and said, "Benefactor, the mountain belongs to One Finger Temple, and the bamboo also belongs to One Finger Temple."
Hearing this, Wang Yougui felt a little embarrassed, and didn't know what to say.
Fangzheng continued: "However, the villagers have shown kindness to the poor monk, and the poor monk should repay the villagers. However, cutting down the bamboo forest is definitely not acceptable. If you do this, the noise will be too loud, which will affect the cleanliness of the temple. Moreover, cutting down the bamboo forest will affect the cleanliness of the temple. Bamboo is always indecent. But you can dig some bamboo shoots. This bamboo grows very fast. It is estimated that it will grow up to the mountainside in a few days, that is, where the spring is. There is also a flat land there. The villagers dig bamboo shoots by themselves. , cut some bamboo, the poor monk will not ask more questions."
"Then what about the ones on the mountain? Just leave it like this? This... this is too wasteful." Wang Yougui looked at the emerald-like green bamboo forest, feeling distressed.
Fangzheng smiled and said: "Benefactor, greed can never be satisfied. As for this bamboo forest, it should attract many pilgrims to come and see it."
"Uh..." Wang Yougui was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, slapped himself and said, "Indeed, I was thinking too much. If this bamboo forest is cut down, it will be too bad a view. With this bamboo forest, it will definitely attract a large number of people." For outing pilgrims, by then, our village will be able to take advantage of the trend to develop tourism, hehe... that is a long-running, green and environmentally friendly business."
Fangzheng also laughed, if Wang Yougui insisted on chopping bamboo, it would be really difficult for him. Although the monks pay attention to the emptiness of the four elements and cutting off cause and effect. But when people live in this world, how can they really be completely empty? Rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, eating, drinking, and sleeping. Many things are connected to each other. If it is really empty, you will become a Buddha.
After sending Wang Yougui away, Fangzheng immediately went to the bamboo forest, found the mother bamboo, and then manipulated the roots of the mother bamboo to spread down the mountain. However, Fangzheng is not a person who likes to eat alone. Back then, the villagers didn't treat him as an outsider, they took care of food and housing, and gave him clothes. Now that he has something good, naturally he doesn't mind sharing it. After thinking about it, Fangzheng simply let the roots of Hanzhu climb up the back mountain, directly into the Tongtian Mountain behind, and merge into the Changbai Mountain Range! As long as the growth range is controlled, it will not affect the local ecological balance.
Moreover, if the villagers can really rely on this to make a fortune, it will be considered a merit.
So Fangzheng gave Hanzhu an order to speed up the growth of the back mountain. However, no matter how powerful Hanzhu is, it is not a god after all. The growth speed is limited. According to the current growth speed, it can reach halfway up the mountain in two or three days. If you really want to send the root system to Tongtian Mountain I'm afraid it will take a month or two, or even longer, to go up.
However, Fangzheng has no effective way to deal with it, so he can only let it grow.
Wang Yougui went down the mountain and found Tan Juguo, Yang Ping, and now the richest man in the village, Yang Hua. The group got together and discussed how to use cold bamboo to make a fortune. The value is too small, so we can only wait.
However, the news that there were bamboos on Yizhi Mountain spread, and Fangzheng clearly felt that there were more people going up the mountain every day, and some people quit in the end.
The construction team is building the road. It's okay for one or two people to go up and down the mountain. If there are too many people, it will definitely not work. If there is an accident, no one can take the responsibility. So the construction team directly blocked the road up the mountain, and no one was allowed to go up. Seeing this, one party was really worried, whether it would dispel people's enthusiasm and affect his family's incense in the future. He went to the mountain to look into the village every day. At the beginning, he could see many people appearing at the foot of the mountain. , Later, there were fewer and fewer people, and finally they disappeared.
Fangzheng shook his head: "Amitabha, you really can't have your cake and eat it too. After building a road, you have to lose something."
Although Fangzheng felt a little pity, he was happy to be at leisure.
The next day, the sky was clear, and looking at the blue sky, Fangzheng really felt like crying, but there was no way, the temperature rose, the sun was brighter, and the water evaporated quickly. The water in the crystal rice field has to be replenished every day, otherwise the crystal rice will probably be lost. For the sake of his mouth and stomach, Fangzheng had to manually carry water to irrigate. Such a large field, filled with water, basically passed the morning.
It's useless to talk too much, clean the Buddhist hall, eat, and then pick up the big bucket to go down the mountain to fetch water, but when the door is opened, there is a woman standing at the door!
"Uh, good morning, female benefactor." Fangzheng was taken aback. The last time he opened the door to meet the pilgrim was the respectable old man Liu Fangfang, but this time it was a woman!
"Hello mage, sorry to bother you, there is no way the construction team has closed the mountain road, so I can only get up early and sneak up." I've seen it, but I can't remember it.
"Amitabha, the benefactor is being polite. The benefactor, please..." Fangzheng put down the bucket, put his hands together in salute, and moved aside.
The woman nodded slightly, and walked into One Finger Temple. Fangzheng smelled a fragrant wind, which he had never smelled before. It was quite weird, but it smelled good. It probably smelled like some kind of perfume.
The woman was wearing a black dress, a black silk gauze shawl, and a round hat. She looked very western and trendy. At least Fangzheng has met so many women, the only one who can surpass this woman in terms of dress and temperament is the big star Li Xueying, and even Jing Yan, who is also from an extraordinary background, is a little worse than her.
Fangzheng asked Lone Wolf to go down the mountain to fetch water by himself, and he followed the woman to the Bodhi tree.
