Chapter 631
"It's okay... more than one hundred yuan a box." Wang Yougui said this, with a smug look on his face. There are four mooncakes in a box of more than one hundred yuan. This is definitely a luxury mooncake, at least he himself is reluctant to eat it. Then he asked Song Ergou, "What kind of mooncake are you doing?"
Song Ergou smiled and said, "I spent a lot of money to buy the best mooncakes, home-made eggs, imported raw materials, my master, and handmade mooncakes! This box costs more than 300 yuan!"
Hearing this, Shao Min, Zhao Gang, and Xue Zong were stunned. Someone went to deliver mooncakes to that monk on the mountain? real or fake?
Shao Min couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "It's not such a coincidence, could it be that he heard our complaints and found someone to act for us? This monk, you really want to save face..."
Xue Zong also frowned, what Shao Min said was not impossible. After all, young people still value face.
Zhao Gang didn't rush to draw conclusions, but said: "Look again..."
Shao Min and Xue Zong were not in a hurry, so they might as well take another look. Shao Min sneered and said, "I'd like to see how they perform this show! There are dozens of believers in the Daming Temple giving mooncakes, and he got two people, does that count? Hmph..."
Zhao Gang and Xue Zong remained silent.
"Hey, you're fine, kid. You are so rich when you make a move. It seems that you have made a lot of money recently." Wang Yougui smiled.
Song Ergou smiled wryly and said, "Don't tease me, this is sending off Abbot Fangzheng. If I were myself, I would be reluctant to eat such an expensive one."
Wang Yougui nodded and said: "Everyone knows what our village was like last year. Few of the villages are as poor as us. But this year? Thanks to Fang Zheng, our village has been completely lifted out of poverty, and even made a fortune. Yes. Cold bamboo brings tourism and farmhouse entertainment, and bamboo carving brings a large number of orders. Every family is busy, and there is no shortage of big and small money. Now it can be said that within ten miles and eight villages, our village is the first! Thank you and it should be of."
Song Ergou nodded and said: "Yeah, I used to be a stinky hooligan, but now I am also a model and advanced. This is not over."
"It's kind of like that." Shao Min murmured in his heart.
At this moment, someone came again, and it was Sun Qiancheng who came with Mengmeng. Mengmeng was holding a mooncake in her hand, and there were mooncake crumbs all over her little face and skirt when she was eating. The baby's fat face was flushed, The two braids fell down, looking extra cute. Sun Qiancheng also carried a large bag of mooncakes. The point is that there is a woman behind Sun Qiancheng!
Song Ergou raised his eyebrows when he saw this, and said in surprise: "Oh! Isn't this my sister-in-law? Is this a holiday coming back to see the children?"
The woman nodded and said: "Yes, come back to see Mengmeng. I heard from Qiancheng that the family has changed a lot, how it is doing well, how business is doing well, I will come back and take a look."
"Haha, after reading it, how do you feel?" Song Ergou laughed.
"What else can I do? Okay!" The woman smiled very happily when she said this, and continued: "To be honest, before I came back, I always thought that the future was bragging. I didn't expect that our village is so good now. This Bamboo carving, this farmhouse, the business is so hot. It’s so good..."
The woman has no schooling, and she speaks in a loud voice, and she keeps saying yes.
Song Ergou laughed loudly and said, "I told you a long time ago that our village is different! By the way, sister-in-law, will you go back to work in the south after the festival?"
"What are you doing? It's like a spinning top in the factory. You only earn two to three thousand yuan after working so hard, and you can earn it casually at home." The woman gave Song Ergou a white look.
Song Ergou excitedly said: "This means, stay?"
"Stay here! Don't leave! I will stay at home with my children and my grandson!" the woman replied heartily.
Wang Yougui, Song Ergou, and Sun Qiancheng all laughed. Like Sun Qiancheng's family, there are many families where husband and wife are divided into two places. Many families stay at home when the farming is busy. Some even go out to work as a family... In addition, after the children go out, they would rather work overtime outside every day and work day and night, rather than return to the countryside to suffer and farm. For a time, there were fewer and fewer people in the village, especially the young and middle-aged. The village is desolate...
However, as the benefits brought by cold bamboo and bamboo carving are getting higher and higher, more and more men, women, and children who have worked outside have returned to their hometowns, and with the apprentices from other villages, Yizhi Village has become lively again. .
And the one with the deepest feeling is naturally the village chief Wang Yougui! His lifelong wish is to lead the village to a well-off life, but the result is that he leads fewer and fewer people. When he was almost desperate, he turned around and achieved today's achievements. Now Wang Yougui can laugh in his dreams. Every time the village chiefs get together or hold a meeting, he is extra energetic. I don’t know how many people died of envy.
Song Ergou asked, the good guy Sun Qiancheng also came to deliver moon cakes.
Zhao Gang muttered, "It seems to be true."
"What is it? It's really like what they said, the monk Fangzheng is so powerful, so few people come to such a big village? I think this is just a show." Shao Min said.
As soon as the words fell, Song Ergou barked: "Oh, Chen Jin, are you going up the mountain too? Don't tell me that you are also delivering moon cakes."
"Nonsense, Fangzheng saved our family's life. It's a festival, so of course I want to send some mooncakes." Chen Jin scolded with a smile.
Shao Min was silent, Chen Jin had a large family, Chen Jin and his wife, son, daughter-in-law, grandson, a family of five. This doesn't look like acting...
"Is that monk really...has such a great reputation? Isn't he a fake monk?" Shao Min was full of doubts.
At this time, Zhao Gang patted Shao Min on the shoulder, indicating to look into the distance.
Shao Min looked up and saw a large group of people coming out of the village, everyone was carrying things in big bags, some were carrying fruits, some were carrying drinks, some were carrying vegetables, some were carrying snacks, but there was one thing. it's the same. That is a must-have mooncake gift box! Look at the packaging, it's not cheap!
When these people came, Song Ergou and others greeted them one after another, and everyone chatted in a hurry, but it turned out that they all wanted to give Fangzheng mooncakes. The reason why he didn't go up the mountain immediately was because he was busy with his own farm work. Autumn is here, and there is a lot of farm work. Even if it is a holiday, it is only after the busy work is done.
Hearing this, Shao Min had a bitter expression on his face. If one or two people came to act, then it is obviously impossible for so many people to be acting. No one would invite so many people to act for the sake of the three of them!
Shao Min suddenly realized that she seemed to be really wrong, she had misjudged her preconceptions, and wronged the monk.
Seeing Shao Min like this, Xue Zong put his arms around her gently, and said in a low voice: "These are all villagers from Yizhi Village. It's normal for everyone to have a good relationship. And you also have good intentions, but just don't be too reckless in the future. gone."
Shao Min nodded slightly, and she felt better when she heard that they were all from villagers. This shows that Fangzheng's influence is not great, and it is mainly concentrated in this village... This blow to her is much smaller. After all, there is still a difference between messing with a young monk and a master who is famous all over the world.
As a result, the voice fell, and someone came from afar.
"Isn't this Zhao Baolin and his family from Hongtang Village?"
"Hey, isn't that the little prince from the village next door to persuade you to gamble?"
"Haha, I saw Fatty and Monkey, these two guys changed cars again!"
"Professor Jiang and his apprentices are also here... I thought they would go home for the holidays, so they wouldn't come. It turned out that they were going to prepare gifts... This guy, it's so lively."
Everyone chattered and reported their names one by one, Xue Zong and Shao Min's faces were a little red. They still underestimated Fang Zheng.
In particular, Xue Zong raised his eyebrows when he saw Guan Xiangfeng walking behind Jiang Zhou, and said, "I saw the butler's Guan Xiangfeng? This guy with eyes above the top is actually here ? I heard that he went out to learn bamboo carving from the master...could it be..."
"Jiang Zhou, isn't that the master sculptor of our province? Why is he here too? He also sent mooncakes to Abbot Fangzheng?" Zhao Gang asked in surprise.
If those villagers in front just proved that Fangzheng is a good person, then the appearance of these few people immediately set off Fangzheng's status to be different! This is definitely a figure like a master, otherwise why let another master give gifts?
Seeing this, Shao Min's eyes flickered, and finally he gritted his teeth and rushed out, heading straight for Guan Xiangfeng.
"Huh? Shao Min, why are you here?" Guan Xiangfeng was also taken aback when he saw the girl who suddenly appeared.
"Let me ask you a question, what's the matter with the bodhi tree on the mountain? Are you afraid of freezing to death in winter?" Shao Min asked straight to the point.
After staying in the village for so long, Guan Xiangfeng knew the situation of Yizhi Temple very well, and said with a smile: "Frozen to death? Don't be ridiculous, that tree has been on the mountain for many years. It was originally frozen to death, but it suddenly came back to life last winter." Come here, the luxuriant branches and leaves are more luxuriant than the old trees native to the Northeast. This is a great miracle of One Finger Temple."
"Really? You didn't lie to me?" Shao Min asked with a flushed face.
"Why are you lying to me? Who in these ten miles and eight villages doesn't know? If you don't believe me, you can just ask... Let me tell you, Abbot Fangzheng is a master! He is a master outside the world, and his carving skills are even better than my master. He's learning bamboo carving." Guan Xiangfeng is completely convinced by Fang Zheng now, and he admires him very much.
Xue Zong and Zhao Gang who followed him also heard him.
The three of them looked at each other, and they all saw the bitterness in Shao Min's eyes.
Watching the villagers go up the mountain with big and small bags, Xue Zong patted Shao Min on the shoulder and said, "Okay, don't think so much, let's go."
Shao Min bit her lips, and finally stomped her feet and said, "Don't go, I want to go up the mountain!"
"Shao Min, haven't you had enough trouble?" Zhao Gang was completely speechless.
Xue Zong also looked helpless.
"Who told you that I'm going to make trouble? I, Shao Min, have a bad temper, but I'm not an unreasonable person! If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I shouldn't be so aggressive with that monk before. Now that I'm wrong, why don't I apologize? After finishing speaking, Shao Min went up the mountain.
Zhao Gang and Xue Zong looked at each other, then they both laughed, shouted to wait, and followed up the mountain.
