Chapter 41 Money is not everything

Zhu originally wanted to keep Zhu Lingbo's disappearance to the smallest extent, but the situation gradually lost control and became increasingly unpredictable. Therefore, Zhu Rui took the initiative to find Gu Yun, on the one hand, he wanted to use Gu Yun's official power in Qiantang County to search. On the other hand, he actually informed Gu of the matter in semi-publicly, hoping that they could help.

When he returned to Jingyuan, Xu You immediately found He Ru. He heard that Zhu's girl was robbed. He Ru was startled first, then laughed and said, "Which dog is blind and is so brave?"

Now it is impossible to determine the relationship between this trafficker village and the Baiwu merchant Li Qingyu and He family. Xu You did not draw a conclusion and said: "Twenty-seven people, one of them was not retained. Zhu's methods are really far from Guo Mian."

He Ru has always been disdainful to the aristocratic families and said, "The four surnames of Wu County enjoy a century of blessings. There are many factions in the family, and they are overly erect and are overwhelmed. They have long forgotten how to deal with emergencies. The girl of her family has disappeared for almost two months, but she has never lived and died or died. No wonder she has no shame to reveal it to the public. It is simply ridiculous and gimmick."

Xu You also felt that Zhu's performance in this matter was not satisfactory. However, the foundation of the century-old Huamen is still there. You cannot overturn a boat of people just because of one thing, and said, "By the way, you are traveling around the world and have a lot of knowledge. Have you ever heard of such a robbery who is ready to die?"

"Everyone is afraid of death, which is by nature! There are not only those who can die calmly, including heroes, great monks, loyal scholars and great scholars of Confucius, who are bound to die, and they can be killed with a smile. In addition, there is another type of religion that is bewitched!"

Xu You raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that this was a big gap compared to He Ru's quick thinking, and said, "Teaching people? The Taoist Master of Heaven, or Buddhism?"

"It's hard to say, but Tianshidao is best at seducing people's hearts. I once witnessed it in the Wushui Manchu riot in Yongzhou. I shouted Taoist words in my mouth. I can die without fear of swords, guns, water and fire. The fanaticism and madness in my eyes make people shudder..."

He Ru fell into deep thought, confused, shocked, excited, and a complicated expression of bloodthirsty flashed in his eyes, and said, "That feeling is indescribable to speak clearly. One day, Qilang may meet it in the future, and then he will understand what my words mean. As for Buddhism, although these Hu monks also like to instill the Buddhist principles of cause and effect, they are incomparable to the Tianshidao in seducing people's hearts, as if they are young children who can walk. Think about it, since the Han Dynasty, only Tianshidao likes to gather people to rebel, raise their arms and shout, and the responders actually follow, but who has ever heard a group of monks rebelling and killing people with bare heads?"

"It's reasonable!" Xu You smiled and said, "Monks like incense and money, so that believers can pay charity and provide for themselves, so as to accumulate land and houses, and seek happiness. They are not very interested in power."

"However, this matter is strange. Whether it is Tianshidao or Buddhism, they are no longer as shabby as they were when they first started the sect. They have their own business and ways to raise money, and they do not need to do such despicable acts that are incompatible with the laws of nature. Of course, it is not that Tianshidao and Buddhism are so clean and flawless. It is just that once the matter of plundering good people is exposed, the world will definitely hate it and be despised by others. It is really more harmful than good, and the gain is not worth the loss!"

Xu You agreed with him. The two religions had a lot of money and the profits were quite good. Although the profits were quite high, the risks and interests were completely different. Sun Guan and Zhu Daorong were both the top figures in the world, and they would never be stupid enough to dig their own graves.

"So, I wondered whether these thieves would be some more secretive and unknown Protestantism..."

"There is also a possibility!"

Xu You has always admired the ability of Chinese people to create gods out of thin air. At this time, the north and the south are in opposition, wars are everywhere, the people are generally pessimistic, lacking a sense of security, and urgently need spiritual sustenance. It is a good time for all kinds of monsters and monsters to show off their powers. There is really no need to be a strange religion to be published.

However, when it comes to worrying about these useless things, you have to find their stronghold in Qiantang to decide the next step. Xu You is just a bystander when Zhu Lingbo was robbed. Both Gu and Zhu have the ability to solve problems and resolve troubles. Today is the same, it doesn’t matter if you talk a few more words, but if you have to point fingers afterwards, you will seem ignorant.

Xu You asked casually: "How is the progress of the Winter Solstice Following the Winter Sect?"

"Qilang is too anxious!" He Ru laughed and said, "It's only a few days after she took over. Even the genius of the world cannot make any major progress. First, it's a good idea to understand the peripheral operation of the wind gate first, and maintain the nails that were stuck in it, so that it would be great if it didn't show its legs!"

Xu You also smiled and said, "You are right, I am anxious! Let her do it slowly, without asking for merit but without making mistakes. Fengmen and us are not enemies at the moment, and they may become friends in the future."

He Ru thought for a while and said, "Do you want to find out Zhu Lingbo's whereabouts through the wind gate?"

Xu You shook his head and said, "The group of people who kidnapped Zhu Lingbo is mysterious and mysterious. The Fengmen is also a dragon who sees the head but not the tail. We are in the light and they are in the dark. It's too much to be a disadvantage. It's better not to provoke him. If they are so dying, they really come to Qiantang with Zhu Lingbo. With Gu and Zhu joining forces, a bird cannot escape, and there is no need to cause trouble."

He Ru no longer said anything. He had no interest in Zhu Lingbo. Whether it was missing or plundering, he was just a stranger. But her identity was very informative. If she could help save people, Zhu would owe a great favor. However, what Xu You said made sense. The enemy was dark and I was clear. Their current strength was insufficient. If they rashly inserted it, they would probably be deeply involved and cause countless troubles.

In the final analysis, things in the world are a business, and the profit is in me. If you work hard, you have to do it. The profit is not in me, and even a penny cannot be wasted.

As he spoke, he walked in with frost and autumnal equinox. He cared about Baipao and asked, "Xiaolang, are there any Baipao whereabouts?"

Previously, when he tried Hong Qi in the county government hall, he confessed that he had sold Baihua to a merchant from Ningzhou, but he had only met this merchant three times. He met by chance in the restaurant, but he didn't know the details, but was just generous and loved to make friends. He could not bring Baihua back to Ningzhou, and he might have taken it to sea to purchase goods. If he wanted to find it immediately, it would be impossible to find a needle in a haystack.

"... Since this unknown businessman loves to make friends, he will inevitably leave a lot of signs in Qiantang. Feiqing has ordered Du Sansheng to investigate quickly, find someone who knows him, and then find out where Baihua is going... Oh, it's not good!"

Lu Shuang hurried over and said, "Xiaolang, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Xu You waved his hand and signaled that it was okay, frowned, and said to He Ru: "Zhu Lingbo is Zhu Gu's top priority. Du Sansheng must focus all his energy on this matter, and may not be able to search for Baihua with all his heart. We cannot wait, but we should take the initiative to find clues. Let's do this. When you go to see the Winter Solstice, let her go to do her first business with Fengmen..."

It is not a one-day effort to find a hundred paintings. Xu You temporarily put down his mind and asked Fang Kang and Fang Sinian to come to the autumnal equinox. He asked with a smile: "How about it, are you still used to living in these two days?"

Fang Sinian was very happy and nodded hurriedly, as if he was afraid that Xu You would drive her out, and said, "I am used to living, I am used to living!" He smiled and said, "Langjun, you are so amazing, how could you have such a big house? There are also those stone mountains and ponds that look not as tall as Yuhe Mountain or as clear as Xiaochen River. But for some reason, I feel so beautiful in my eyes!"

Aesthetics have always been very personal, and I may not like what you like. Fang Sinian is illiterate, authentic and illiterate, simple and innocent, and clean, and can touch the aesthetic real interest hidden in the mountains, rivers and the countryside. So even she praised Jingyuan, which shows that this garden was really built.

"It's all thanks to the money!"

Fang Sinian curled his lips and said, "Money? The husband bullied me as a wild girl in the mountains. People say that money is the most vulgar thing in the world. The nobles in the city don't like to talk about money..."

"Who taught you?" Xu Youqi said, "Where did Fang Sinian hear that there is no scholar in Youhe Village?"

Wan Kang, who was standing aside, said awkwardly: "I don't know where a storyteller came from some time ago. He told the story of White Lady for three days. This girl followed her and learned some muddles. Don't blame me!"

I see!

Xu You laughed and said, "I will teach you a saying that money is not omnipotent, but you must not have money! You ask me why there is such a big house, and why the water of stones and ponds is better than green mountains and green waters. In fact, they are all piled up with money that is taller and heavier than you. If you don't have money, you can't buy these rocks, and you can't hire craftsmen to polish and build them. If you don't have money, we can only sleep on the streets!"

"It's nothing to have no money. You can pick the stones yourself and build the mountains yourself. As for the pond, it's the easiest. Dig a hole and pick some water and pour it in..."

"Okay, you're right!"

Xu You was afraid that it would be dark if he was torn with her, so he said, "Well, you go out with me with your father, and maybe you have the chance to see what money is for!"

The store in Sibaofang is named Yan Shujian. He has three daughters but no children. His daughters are married and have few relatives. His wife died of illness five years ago, and a concubine is still there. He is still in charge of Sibaofang and has no intention of expanding business. It is also because he has no son to inherit the family business. This old man is still open-minded and has a good temper. At least Fang Kang has never seen him irritate himself. However, over the years, because of Liu Zhengyang's death and Liu Zhengyang's wife, he has been criticized by neighbors, and his relationship with him is not very good.

After Liu Yu returned from Guangzhou, he opened Jubaozhai across the street and poached the waiters and craftsmen from Sibaofang. Not only did he not cause controversy in the countryside, but a large group of people were watching the show. After all, for thousands of years, in everyone's understanding, it is natural for the son to avenge his father. However, no one would like to think about whether Yan Shujian was really a murderer and whether there was another hidden truth in it. However, we cannot blame the whole thing too much. The people who are eating melons focus on eating melons rather than exploring the truth. This is the same as in ancient and modern times!

After getting the information he wanted from Fang Kang, Xu You became more confident in persuading Uncle Yan. When he arrived at the door of the store, he happened to meet a dozen golfers making trouble. The leader was Tang Zhiyi, whom he had met in Youhe Village.
