Chapter 96 Dharma and the Womb

Ximentang is in the Haizhou semicolon, and opens on the Haichang Street, Linhai Chang Street of the Quechang Port outside the Quechang site, occupying a three-in-three-out yard. There are two deep ruts rolled out by wheels on the bluestone pavement in front of the door. It is obvious that vehicles often carry cargo in and out from here.

Just as Wu Haogu, Pan Qiaolian, Guo Jing, Liu Wuji, Lin Chong and others came to Linhai Chang Street. Ximen Qing and his grandfather had just arrived accompanied by Zhang Xizai. The grandfather and grandson got out of a carriage, and the shopkeeper of Ximentang in Haizhou came out in person.

"Uncle, why are you here? You are tired all the way, are you still in good health?"

The shopkeeper of Ximentang in Haizhou is also from the Ximen family. He is named Ximen Zi, who is the uncle of Ximen Qing.

By the way, the Ximen family in Yanggu where Ximen Qing is located is a "Banyi Gate", which is an existence between the Yi Gate and ordinary clans.

Unlike Yimen, which insists on not separating the family and establishing public ownership of the family, Banyimen is divided into families, and each house and each family has its own industries. However, while separating the family, there are also a large number of public property under Banyimen, mainly academic fields and clan fields. Generally speaking, it is difficult to operate commercial assets as public property in the clan, while land is relatively easy to operate, as long as rent is collected, so public property in Yimen/Banyimen is usually farmland.

The school and clan fields owned by Banyimen are mainly used to pay for the education costs of the children in the clan and to support the elderly in the clan.

Specifically for the Ximen family in Yanggu, it is based on the farmlands of Yanggu and Pengcheng, and it also operates pharmacies and smuggled by the Banyimen in the Song and Liao dynasties. The farmlands of Yanggu and Pengcheng are both public property of the clan, while the Ximen Hall in various places are private property of each house.

Although Ximen Hall in Haizhou is on the same sign as Ximen Hall in Pengcheng, it is not Ximen Qing's property, but belongs to Ximen Zi's house.

In addition, since the Ximen clan is a Banyi Sect, it is naturally necessary to strive for the imperial examination and official career.

If there are few officials who rely on them, a wealthy family like the Ximen family will be fat in the eyes of officials and officials.

However, the Ximen family did not follow the path of the literary examination, but specialized in the martial arts. Because of the cavalry and shooting foundations passed down from ancestors, the Ximen family had many martial arts and Jinshi. However, starting from the generation of Ximen Qing's grandfather Ximen He, the Song Dynasty's martial arts and martial arts exams have been increasingly focused on written examinations, which has caused the Ximen family to suffer a great loss and has not been promoted to the martial arts and Jinshi for decades.

This family also seems to be a little disappointed... However, there are many cruel people in the Ximen clan who can beat and kill well, but they are not weak people who can be bullied!

Moreover, Ximentangs in various places are all medical clinics and pharmacies. If someone is replaced, it is hard to say whether there are any sick families. Therefore, although the Ximen family does not have official protection, they can still maintain the situation.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll walk around while I can still walk around." Ximen He said, and entered the hall with the help of Ximen Qing, and then passed by the hall and arrived at the backyard.

As soon as he entered the backyard, Ximen He immediately asked, "The second son of the Ma family has arrived?"

"It's here, it's arrived yesterday."

"Didn't it attract others' attention?"

"No, no," Ximen Zi smiled, "There were a delegation from Goryeo that happened to arrive these days, and the Haizhou government was busy entertaining distinguished guests of Goryeo."

"Hmph, what a distinguished guest?" Ximen Qing, who was holding Ximen He, said coldly, "It's just a dog slave of the Khitans."

"It's a good idea to build Liao," Ximen He said, "This means that the husband in the court has not forgotten to restore Yan Yun."

When the three of them were talking, they had already entered a main hall in the backyard of Ximentang. There were also two people talking in the main hall, both of whom were in their twenties and dressed in a businessman. One of them was tall and had a beard, as if he was a general. The other was short and concise, with dark skin, and a straight facial features. When he spoke, his eyes were always turning, and he looked very smart.

Seeing Ximen He, Ximen Qing and Ximen Zi come in, the two of them who were talking quickly got up and bowed to the old man Ximen.

"My younger generation, Ma Zhi, have met Ximen Shibo."

"I've seen Dad Ximen in the mountains."

Ximen He waved his hand, "No need to bow, sit down and talk."

As he spoke, the old man sat down on a rose chair, also known as Ximen Qing, and Ximen Zi also sat down.

"By the way, Ma Erlang, what did your Mr. Yanshan say? Should you deceive the man surnamed Wu to the Liao Kingdom?"

"Uncle II asked me to come and have a look. If it is really as good as the letter said, it would be a rare opportunity."

"Isn't it just a painting?" Ximen He disagreed a little.

Ma Zhi shook his head with a serious look on his face and said, "Shi Bo doesn't know that the Khitans have become increasingly addicted to Buddhism over the years and cannot extricate themselves. The national wealth is used to build temples and monks. The national (Khitans) heroes either eat vegetarian food at home or go to the temple to become monks. The Khitan tribe has only two million people, but there are more than 300,000 monks and nuns, all of whom sit for food and offer sacrifices without doing anything for production.

If this continues, the Khitan will have no war and no silver to pay. Once the disaster strikes the grasslands and forests, there will be a disaster of overturning.

The Han people in Yanyun are becoming increasingly prosperous, and their clans have multiplied to millions, and all the Bohai tribes have been sinicized. Today, in the Great Liao Dynasty, our Han people are the largest clan!

If the Khitans continue to be addicted to Buddhism, within thirty or forty years, even if the Liao Kingdom does not perish, the Khitan people will be replaced by our Han family."

It turned out that the Khitans were about to be defeated by Indian Buddhism and the Han uterus!

With a population of 2 million and more than 300,000 monks and nuns, it has seriously affected the population reproduction. Moreover, most of the Khitans who have not become monks are addicted to Buddhism and recite scriptures in a confused manner. They no longer have the courage and fighting skills of their ancestors.

In contrast, the Han people in Yanyun maintained clan force under the "country army system" of the Liao Kingdom, and also assimilated the Bohai people with their powerful Han culture and became increasingly powerful.

If this trend is maintained, in a few decades, the Khitans, the Khitans, the national tribe of the Liao Kingdom, are likely to be the absolute advantage of the number of Han Khitans, and their combat effectiveness is not weak... Of course, the premise is that no barbarians who are more fierce than the Khitans rise!

"What does the Khitans have to do with the painter's obsession with Buddhism?" Ximen He was quite puzzled.

Ma Zhi smiled and said, "My second uncle has his own arrangements, and it will definitely make the Khitans more obsessed with Buddhism and have no choice but to extricate themselves. Lin Ya himself can also take this step further."

"Okay," Ximen He nodded, then looked at his grandson Ximen Qing, "Do you know how to do it?"

"The grandson knows."

As soon as Ximen Qing finished speaking, a Ximen Tang manager walked in quickly and whispered a few words in Ximen Zi's ear.

Ximen Zi said: "Uncle, it's Wu Dalang who has arrived."

"I am looking for me and Zixu." Ximen Qing stood up and said.

"Looking for me?" Hua Manshan was stunned, "But I don't know him?"

Ximen Qing smiled, "I recommended you to him as a manager... Your family's business is gone, so you always have to find a place to settle down, right?

I think you are good at following Wu Haogu. Although he is a little confused now, he has real skills and treats people well. He will have a bright future in the future. If you follow him, you will always be rich."

Hua Manshan's eyes rolled down, then bowed to Ximen Qing, and said with a smile: "I'll thank you all over the mountain."

Ximen Qing nodded and looked at Ma Zhi and his grandfather again, "Dad, Uncle Ma, are you going to meet that Wu Dalang?"

Ximen He shook his head and said to Ma Zhi: "Nephew, go see him together. If you can condom him, don't use force... At worst, you can spend some money. As long as you can make useful friends, spending some money is not very good."
