The largest painting boat on the Qinhuai River, Cui Liufang, is known as the Qinhuai River with the best service, the most beautiful girl, and the largest gambling board A good place to eat, drink and have fun.
Yuan Sheng's cloak, wearing a purple brocade robe, stood in front of a large table of gambling on Tianjiu cards with his nose blowing and staring, and gambled with more than a dozen giant merchants in Yingtianfu.
It could be seen that his luck was not good, and he lost a bunch of silver tickets in a short time, and suddenly shouted and cursed loudly.
"Bastard, there must be a ghost in your cards here, why did I take thirteen hands in a row and ten fucking ones, don't be found out by grandpa and me, otherwise I will copy your painting boat, let you all bloom, and go to the northwest border, and go to those stinky barbarians to climb the house."
Yuan Sheng, whose face was flushed, touched his body angrily for a long time, and suddenly turned around and shouted: "Qinglong, I'll send silver to grandpa." ” Qinglong walked over with an ugly face, and muttered in a low voice: "Lord, you have lost more than three million taels today, and then ask Xu Qing's kid for silver, I'm afraid it's not suitable, I didn't see that he was forced to spit out 500,000 taels of silver today, he looked like he was dead" Qinglong smiled bitterly, it's not a way to lose like this, even if Jinyiwei collects more money, Yuansheng hasn't won a handful in the past half a month, and if he loses like this, I'm afraid that Jinyiwei will be lost and bankrupt by him.
Yuan Sheng's eyes were grunting for a long time, and he felt embarrassed to bully Xu Qing again, and was about to think of some crooked ways to get some gold, silver and jewelry.
At this time, a plain-clothed beauty slowly walked over and laughed softly: "Lord Yuan has lost again, you can't go on like this, half a month's effort, you can lose more than 20 million taels, or listen to the slave's tunes to dissipate the anger." ” This beauty smiled and pulled Yuan Sheng away, but it was the old bustard of this Cui Liufang who was afraid that Yuan Sheng would lose miserably, and did something that had no royal law.
The people on this painting boat all know that Yuan Sheng has the background of Jinyiwei, although they don't know what the relationship between him and Lu Feng, the leader of Jinyiwei, is, but just look at the three most ferocious evils in Jinyiwei: Zhou Chu, Lu An, and Lin Shi, they are all polite to him, and they know that it is best not to provoke him to be angry.
This plain-clothed girl, but it is a red card that Yuan Sheng has been obsessed with recently, and she has the title of quyi on the Qinhuai River, and the old bustard saw that Yuan Sheng had lost again, and hurriedly called her to appease Yuan Sheng, saving him from doing anything without the king's law.
Yuan Sheng's handsome face hesitated for a while, holding the beauty's hand, and looking at the dominoes on the table, he suddenly gritted his teeth and roared loudly: "Damn, I'll leave after ten more bets."
He strode back to the gambling table, looked at the dozen or so giant businessmen, and laughed cruelly: "Ben Sheng will gamble ten more hands, if he loses, he will leave today, how about it?"
Just as the very rich giant businessman in Zhuang smiled: "Lord Yuan, you still want to continue gambling, we are welcome, but do you still have silver" These rich businessmen are very happy that Yuan Sheng has lost more than 20 million yuan in the past ten days.
Hehe, no matter who he is, as long as he is a gift of silver, who can not like it Of course, this person has also lost too outrageously, more than 20 million taels of silver, if this number is said, I am afraid that even the head of the household will be scared to death.
Nowadays, the total tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty is only about 5 million taels a year Yuan Sheng's face was gloomy, and he said ruthlessly: "Silver, isn't this silver" He casually sucked the four treasures of the study from the case next to him, wrote a few documents with a brush, and laughed: "With this document, I will immediately give the position of Jinyi Wei Qianhu."
The reserve price of a document is one million taels of silver, you can make a price, the one with the highest price will have a thousand households in Jinyi, you see, but it is very majestic, don't let go of this opportunity. ” The giants looked at each other and were speechless.
If you get a position of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, don't say one million, even if it is two million or three million, it is cost-effective.
However, the few documents written by Lord Yuan casually, should this be an open trading official, if this reaches the ears of the supervising imperial history, I am afraid that even Lu Feng will have a big obstacle Yuan Sheng didn't care what they were thinking, and wrote several documents casually, shouting loudly: "Ah, in addition to the official position of Jinyiwei, here are five thousand households, and there are also official positions in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Cities that can be sold, do you want to be a general or a guerrilla official title, Lu Feng, it seems that he still has a large part of the power of the six departments."
Well, there is no way to serve the squire, but it is still very easy to engage in the position of the doctor. ” With an evil light flashing in his eyes, Yuan Shengyin said with a smile: "I also met with Chief Manager Lu in the palace a few days ago, well, that little old man is very much to my liking."
He also said that as long as I have instructions, he will definitely help me get those things done.
Hmm, do you have any sons and nephews who want to serve in the palace, the generals of the forbidden army, one million; the head of the Praetorian Guard, two million each; The steward eunuch in the palace, three million, how about it" The giants were completely dumbfounded.
This is really a public betrayal of the official, this Lord Yuan, how can he dare to be so unkind to Lu Feng and the old eunuch Lu Well, the official positions of the forbidden army and the forbidden guard are very good, and the buildings near the water will get the moon first, maybe they will be able to tie up with the emperor, and the benefits will be boundless.
But the position of the eunuch in charge, no one must be willing to go to his sons and nephews, so that's it.
A giant businessman sitting in the corner of the stage changed his face slightly, applauded lightly, and shouted: "Everyone, we have something to discuss, and I also ask you to avoid suspicion of how to talk about today's feelings, and my Zhou family will always have something to repay in the future."
The other giants also stood up and unceremoniously kicked out the other guests at the tables in the cabin.
Yuan Sheng looked at the actions of these giant businessmen with a smile, his hands did not stop at all, and he was desperately writing documents one by one, which were all money.
After a ridiculous night, Yuan Sheng even asked a few of them to testify in person, forcing them to agree to give the corresponding official positions to those giant businessmen who paid for it.
A few pieces of broken paper were exchanged for a huge amount of silver taels that ordinary people could not earn in hundreds of lifetimes, and Yuan Sheng had a gambling book in his hands.
In the next few days, Yuan Sheng simply used a little spell on the gambling table, which was really a big kill, and he didn't know how many gold, silver and jewelry he won.
But on the fourth day, after he gave up the means of cheating, he was so bad that he was clean and slippery, and he escaped from Cuiliufang with the four-phase generals in an extremely embarrassed manner.
Standing on the bank of the Qinhuai River in the thin morning mist, Yuan Sheng pointed at Cuiliufang with an embarrassed face and scolded: "You must have made trouble in this dice, otherwise how could Ben Sheng lose so much" He was accustomed to pressing the saber at his waist, but he pressed it empty.
He suddenly realized that his saber had been converted into silver taels last night, and he had lost on the gambling table.
The embarrassed Yuan Sheng looked at the four-phase warrior who only had one underwear left on his body, shook his head helplessly, and forced a smile: "Haha, this person has a mistake, cheating when gambling is the most boring."
However, my luck is indeed a little worse, and I can't blame me for it."
The four of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu had dull faces, and followed behind Yuan Sheng blankly, as if five ghosts had merged into the thin morning mist.
The quiet morning was suddenly shattered by a terrible howl: "Damn thief, where can I get more silver taels?"
The voice was like a wolf's howl, causing the early risers to say one by one: "Look, another loser has lost all his property."
Alas, we have to teach our children to learn well, but we can't learn from these foolish children. ” As soon as the soldiers of the Tianfu City Defense Army opened the city gate, they saw a group of wind shadows rushing in, these soldiers had not yet figured out, and the wind shadows had already rushed in with a piercing scream: "Monk Daoyan, Monk Daoyan, you give Bensheng a roll out of the silver, silver, silver" Those city defense soldiers all looked extremely strange, and thought: "Who dares to ask Lord Monk Daoyan for debts, it is really powerful." ” On the roof of a restaurant on the side of the road, Shui Yuanzi gnawed on a dog's leg without a bite, squinting at Yuan Sheng rushing over with a four-phase general.
"Hehe, this guy is cultivating magic skills in his bones, but his appearance is a fairy spirit, it's really a powerful person, isn't Monk Daoyan his dog's leg, why is he still looking for Monk Daoyan for money" Tilting his head and thinking for a long time, Shui Yuanzi jumped up violently, patted his buttocks with greasy hands, and said lazily: "That's it, what do I care about your affairs, as long as you don't come to Yingtianfu, grandpa, I won't mess with you, otherwise, hum behind the plot, grandpa, I just learned it." ” Here, Shui Yuanzi had just turned into a cloud of water vapor and melted into the morning mist, and several tall and ruddy-faced white-eyed old monks over there had slowly walked into the city gate.
The four old monks were the four old monks who followed Zhang Sanfeng and the dusty old nun in Qilian Mountain last time, and the five were the five old monks who were the presiding monks of the Fangcun Zen Monastery.
A total of nine old monks walked into the city gate slowly, and suddenly raised their heads and glanced at the place where Shui Yuanzi disappeared: "Amitabha, what a pure and strong immortal spirit, this Ying Tianfu is full of masters." ” The lion monk snorted coldly: "Then we don't want to waste time in Yingtianfu, but this person seems to be an innate spirit body, but a first-class figure of immortals, with him in charge, within a radius of thousands of miles, I am afraid that demons and monsters will not be able to get close."
Let's go find the remnants of the Blood God Cult first."
An unknown old monk nodded slowly: "It's okay, but I don't know what progress has been made on the side of the dust-free Taoist friend."
This time, the power of the Blood God Sect on the surface seems to have been completely eradicated by us, but there seems to be someone behind it, and I won't be at ease if I don't wait to find out. ” The dragon monk nodded, turned around and left: "Then, let's go east along the Yangtze River, it seems that the richer the place, the greater the power of the Blood God Sect, this is also a clue I originally heard that in this Ying Tianfu, the young monk Dao Yan of the imperial court is also a Taoist monk with profound Buddhism, and he still wants to take the opportunity to find him to Pan Heng one or two, but now he can only wait for the next time."
Several old monks laughed gently, chanted a Buddha horn in unison, shook their sleeves, and walked out of the city flutteringly.
The city gate officials were so intimidated by their demeanor that they forgot to ask them to collect the gate tax.

At this time, in the Shaobao Mansion, there was a high monk in the mouth of the dragon monk, and the monk Daoyan was lying on the ground with an embarrassed face, looking at the Yuan Sage who was sitting high on the Taishi chair in the middle of the hall, with an angry face.
I heard Yuan Sheng constantly shouting and scolding: "What is no money, you are Shaobao, the young security lord of the dynasty, Zhu Di, the most trusted courtier of the emperor's children, the most powerful courtier in the court, you actually don't have any silver, well, you took a hundred thousand taels of silver, you sent it away, why don't you learn Lu Feng, look at how good he is, I said that I want to gamble, Xu Qing, the little dolls around the place, I have honored this saint tens of millions of taels of silver."
Why are you so useless?"
The monk is a young protector of the dynasty, although he received a lot of bribes, but most of the silver was spent.
There are so many monks under his own disciples, their eating, drinking, and preaching, as well as those who go to various places to preach and preach, don't they have to spend money, especially if they have to buy a few other big courtiers, this is also dead money.
He is not like Lu Feng, who unscrupulously looted the people's fat and ointment, he is a monk and Taoyan, and he is indeed not as rich as Lu Feng's net worth.
In desperation, he could only say in a sneering voice: "Lord, this, this, Dao Yan is really incompetent.
But this matter of silver and two, but no wonder Dao Yan Dao Yan has no chance to receive too many bribes, unlike Lord Na Lu, who casually wiped out a wealthy businessman, that is the income of millions of taels of silver.
Moreover, he Jinyiwei occupies millions of acres of fertile land outside Yingtian City, and his annual income is amazing, he is really a first-class rich man. ” Yuan Sheng frowned, and snorted coldly: "I don't care about you so much, in short, this saint appreciates his face and lives in Yingtianfu, this is to help you, understand that ordinary people beg me to live in his house, I won't pay attention to him Lu Feng That kid is very filial and capable, and gave me so much silver to spend, but I am embarrassed to ask him for money again."
You are my confidant, and you will be responsible for my food, drink and entertainment expenses from now on.
Silver, I don't care what means you use, even if it's robbing the bank's treasury, I want silver anyway. ” Monk Daoyan looked at Yuan Sheng dumbfounded, his head was buzzing, and he was really speechless.
Qinglong saw that Monk Daoyan looked so pitiful, and couldn't help but say: "Lord, this can't be blamed on Monk Daoyan, he is just a young guard, relying on the power in his hands, and now he can save 100,000 taels of silver, which is already a very difficult thing, and now it is indeed very difficult for him to suddenly pay a large amount of silver."
We might as well think of something else, how?"
Yuan Sheng glanced at Qinglong coldly, and said coldly: "What other way to sell the four of you to Qinglou, so that you can't laugh and pick up guests, or let Monk Daoyan build a temple by himself, and collect incense money, the incense money should be the largest temple in Tianfu, how much incense money is a year?"
Monk Daoyan didn't know his intentions, and hurriedly said carefully: "I'm afraid that there are a lot of believers who make offerings to the Buddha, and they are all very generous." ” Yuan Sheng clapped his hands and laughed, jumping up excitedly: "That's it, that's it, then it's done."
Why can Jinyiwei have so much silver, they have power in their hands.
Although your monk Daoyan does not have the power to raid the family and exterminate the clan and expropriate tyranny, after all, he also has his own strengths.
Wouldn't it be better for you to take more believers from your courtiers and rich merchants, and you have bewitched them into a daze, and that large sum of money has not come into your purse like a tide?"
He was so excited, he walked around the hall and said with a smile: "Well, the slogan of Mahayana Buddhism is to save the world, but they can't even save themselves, and what else is the world This is too empty Theravada Buddhism says to save yourself, this is not good, only take care of yourself, how can those believers be willing to give you the silver Well, Daoyan, you just come to a Theravada Buddhism, with your own people, cultivate the way to save yourself at the same time, and then educate the people of the world, cross others, this kind of slogan is the favorite of those ordinary people. ” "Well, didn't you just preach that Buddhists can't just take care of Qing Xiu and ignore the world, so they took refuge in the Yanwang Mansion The lessons of Theravada Buddhism that I summarized for you are exactly in line with your previous statement.
As long as you get hooked on a few more believers, let them give them money.
If you can turn the civil and military capital of the Manchu Dynasty into your followers, I will give you a great merit in the future, you know, when we have a big event, when we are rewarded for meritorious deeds, I will not forget you. ” Yuan Sheng let out a long smile that shook the sky, waved his sleeves, and walked to the door triumphantly, of course, he did not forget to bring the silver ticket of 100,000 taels.
Monk Daoyan knelt on the ground, staring blankly at the back of Yuan Sheng, full of ghosts.
He knelt on the ground like this, frowning and thinking: "This lord is crazy, does he really want silver taels, or does he have other intentions If I really came up with this Theravada Buddhism, so that the civil and military of the Manchu court have become my believers, this gold and silver jewelry is indispensable, but is it possible that the real purpose of his old man is not in this silver?"
"Lord Yuan Sheng looks crazy, but like that Lu Feng, his heart is extremely gloomy, and people can't see through or see through it.
This Theravada Buddhism is not just for the sake of silver taels.
If that's all he says, what big deal does he say, alas, unfathomable, unfathomable. ” Monk Daoyan got up slowly, patted his shirt lightly, and suddenly sneered: "That's it, I was originally going to preach the essence of my Buddhism in Yingtianfu, but I was afraid that those Taoist worshippers would embarrass me, so I paused."
Since the Lord has said so now, then I am no wonder.
Hmph, if those offerings come out to be embarrassed, please ask the Lord to kill them. ” Shaking his sleeves triumphantly, the monk Daoyan scolded loudly: "Come on, take my post to the six books, and say that tonight, I will set up a banquet for the teacher in the mansion to entertain them." ” The footsteps were tight, and countless black-clothed monks moved quickly To be continued:
