Make a lot of money!I got rich in the year of famine

Chapter 49 Bribing the Monk
Speaking of this height, Master Mingli couldn't refuse at all.

The middle-aged monk was unhappy, half-closed his eyes, and said slowly: "Look at the clothes of the benefactor, it doesn't seem that poverty is hard to live on, why is there such a trick?"

What he meant was: there are many people who are poorer than you, why should I help you?

Shen Qing sneered, "Isn't the Buddha the one who saves all sentient beings?"

Since it's Purdue, it doesn't make any difference whether it's me or not. If so, what reason do you have to reject me?

The great monk was speechless for a while, rolled his eyes, and said slowly: "Renting a temple shop in front of the gate is cheaper than you, but there is no defense, but there is no precedent for this matter, if someone learns from you in the future , isn't it... going to be messed up?"

Shen Qing secretly hated that this uncle was obviously trying to gain benefits and he was speaking in a high-sounding way, but she could only smile in apology.

"In my opinion, the temple shop in front of the gate can be rented out. Firstly, this will bring a lot of income to the temple. Secondly, it will make the scene more lively and spread more fame. What do you think? "

Mingli suddenly pretended to be an eminent monk and said, "Monks have nothing in their possessions, and their money is all external possessions."

Shen Qing almost vomited, "Then the monks in your temple also have to eat, drink, and have diarrhea, and the Bodhisattvas in the temple also have to be renovated and painted from time to time. If one day the abbot wants to reshape his golden body..."

Mingli was shocked, "That's it, the follow-up matters, let me chat with the benefactor in detail."

Mingli's disciple is a smart and lively little monk named Kong Kong.

After getting the master's order, Kong Kong immediately ran over with the booklet in his hand.

Huo Lin had long known that Shen Qing was a talker, so when she was talking about something, he would just stand aside and remain silent, only daring to speak after the matter was over.

At first sight, he was surprised to see how empty his head was.

Seeing that he is about the same age as him, but he is already a Buddhist, so he will not be able to marry a wife and have children in the future, so he can only serve the Buddha all his life, right?
Although Kong Kong is a monk, his eyes are all about making money, and Shen Qing is also a money hooker, so the two have similar tastes.

Anyway, it's not a big business, just rent a room, move in tomorrow, and rent it for ten days in a row.

Kong Kong held his abacus, and splashed it quickly, "Those rooms used to be used for people to rest, and they were not rented out. My master said, I will charge you five taels of silver for ten days, not expensive, right?" ?”

Shen Qing nodded vigorously, "It's not expensive, it's not expensive." She thought to herself, next year it might not be this price, at least it would have to be tripled.

Kong Kong took her to see the temple shop again. It was on the far side, about [-] square meters, with two tables and a few chairs inside.There is a small door at the back. After going out, there is a large courtyard connected to several other temples, with a well standing in the middle.

Huo Lin went to take a look. The water source was clear and there was a stone platform next to it, which was convenient for washing things.

Shen Qing pointed to one place, "I need to build a stove here, do you mind?"

He waved his hand emptyly, "No defense, just pay attention to fire prevention. There is firewood piled over there, and I will give it to you for free."

Kong Kong handed her the key, and asked her to press her fingerprint on a deed, "I will pay after ten days. By the way, I don't know what you are going to sell?"

Shen Qing rubbed his nose and felt embarrassed, "Uh...most of them are meat dishes. I'm afraid I can't invite my little master to taste them. There's only one thing I can do. Xiao Linzi, please bring the dried bamboo shoots quickly."

Huo Lin ran over, took out an oil paper bag from the baggage and handed it over.

Kongkong was also a greedy person, so he opened it immediately, picked up a piece and ate it, then raised his big thumb and said, "It's a good thing. It's good for drinks and snacks, but how much money can you make from it?"

This time Shen Qing was modest, "It's as much as you can earn, it's a small business!"

Kong Kong felt embarrassed, "Then, let me give you money for this bag!"

Shen Qing waved his hands quickly, "No, no, I just invited you. The spring bamboo shoots I picked and made myself are not worth much."

When she said this, Kongkong felt even more embarrassed and gave her a lot of convenience later.

After returning from the White Horse Temple, several people were busy.

We have to pick tea and fry it, we have to dig bamboo shoots to make fish fillets, and we have to ask Mr. Fan to cook the stove in the temple shop.

Shen Hui watched helplessly as the money she had saved in the past few days flowed out like running water, dripping blood from her heartache.

Although her sister kept comforting her that she could make money back, she was still worried. In addition to her daily work, she also devoted herself to taking care of a group of chickens, ducks, and two piglets at home.

The sweet potato vines in the field grew like crazy. Even if they were cut back every day and chopped into pieces to make pig food, they still grew everywhere.

Shen Hui was in a hurry, so Shen Qing came up with an idea and asked Fan Cuicui to notify her neighbors, and the next day a group of women and women came, all of them carrying bamboo baskets and holding sickles.

Shen Hui only needs to tell them the precautions for cutting sweet potato vines, and then don't worry about it later.

Those households in the mountains don't raise pigs, even if they don't have pigs, they still have chickens, which are finely chopped and mixed with corn dregs or wheat bran, which is the best chicken food.

The stove in the temple shop is ready, and the tables and chairs are tidied up.

Shen Qing also used a bag of dried bamboo shoots, a handful of stewed peanuts, and freshly roasted melon tea to successfully bribe Master Mingli, and borrowed pots and pans from the stove in the temple. In short, she would borrow whatever she lacked. It is to avoid bringing it from home, and secondly, there are not so many at home.

On the first day of the temple fair, Huo Lin lived there. Early the next morning, before dawn, Cao Dahai used an ox cart to pull a few little girls to the White Horse Temple.

Shen Qing ran to look for Kong Kong again, originally wanted to write a plaque by herself, but she really couldn't handle the characters, so she found a wooden board and asked Kong Kong to send it, and asked Master Mingli to write three words: Miaoweifang.

Looking at the plaque, Shen Qing smiled from ear to ear, "If our business is successful, I will definitely engrave these three words and hang them at the door of the store."

"Then I wish you a prosperous business." Kongkong poked his head into the shop, what he looked at was not the people, but the snacks placed on the big bamboo plaques, they were delicious and craving.

But he was a monk, let alone eating, he couldn't even look at it.

Shen Qing gave him another bag of peanuts, "Last time I brought a little less, just enough to honor your master, today this bag is for you alone, don't let others see."

Kong Kong flipped the oil paper bag and narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Thank you very much. If you need me, just ask Huo Lin to find me. But I will definitely be too busy today. It's hard to say whether I can find him or not."

Shen Qing thanked him, then touched his slightly rough face and smiled meaningfully.

Who told her that she was too good-looking, so if she wanted to show her face, she would naturally have to look ugly, and the uglier the better, this was what she said to her sister.

After she finished speaking, Shen Hui poked her forehead with a smile and scolded, saying that she was shameless.

So her face has changed a lot. It was dyed black with turmeric, her brows were drawn thicker with charcoal, and there was a mole on the corner of her mouth.
