Qin Bing said: "Tell me, what did you think before digestion was triggered?"
Xu Shu said: "I just saw the children having fun, and I felt that my hard work was not in vain. People in Dazhou are not all indifferent. At least there are lovely children. Seeing them, I suddenly felt that it was worth it."
Qin Bing nodded: "That's right. There are many ways of digestion, the most common one is merit. To be precise, by completing one thing, you get a great sense of accomplishment. The higher the sense of accomplishment, the easier it is to digest it. The sooner. I didn't tell you before because I was worried that you would be too utilitarian and your efforts would be counterproductive."
Duan Kuohai said: "The sense of accomplishment is very mysterious. You can't seek it deliberately. It all depends on your state of mind."
Qin Bing smiled and said, "In addition, the start of digestion is very closely related. When you start the digestion process, Team Duan is also related to it, so a lot of source power is also digested."
"What about you?" Xu Shucai asked, then slapped his forehead, "Your source chakra is not full yet, so it cannot trigger digestion. It is a pity. Team Duan, what are we waiting for? Hurry to the Internal Affairs Hall, collect merit points, and give Teacher Qin exchanges for the source fruit."
"You still need to tell me to get in the car."
At 4:15 in the afternoon, Xu Shu drove the car directly to the repair shop. When it came to receiving the merit, he stopped participating and threw the car key to Duan Kuohai.
Immediately, he went out on Duan Kuohai's broken bicycle.
On the way back, what Long Wei passed was so eye-catching.
After walking around the spirit cage world, his mood changed greatly.
In the past, he thought riding Longwei was very cool, but now he just wanted to hide in the crowd.
The bicycle turned onto the fourth road, just as Lao Liu's beef dumplings had just come out of the pot, and the aroma was overflowing.
Xu Shu ordered two baskets and hung them on the handlebars of his bicycle. He ate and wandered along the Yanjiang Avenue.
It was midsummer, and on the river beach, people gathered in groups to enjoy the cool air after work.
Bamboo beds are lined up on the edge of the river beach, and densely packed mats are spread out on the gentle slope.
The evening breeze was blowing gently and the sun was about to set. Xu Shu enjoyed the river scenery and rode slowly.
When it was getting dark, he parked his bicycle at the gate of No. 36 Shamao Lane.
"You have really good eyesight. It's just that my place is clean. There are two alleys before you go out, which is the long street. Once the back door of the yard is opened, you can enjoy the sand river alone. Look, the trees are dense and the flowers are bright. Hey, hold the grass..."
The landlord Lao Zheng introduced by Zheng Ba Ba was startled by a black-tipped snake swimming out of the flower bed.
He quickly calmed down: "Look, where can I find this vibrant environment and excellent Feng Shui? If you rent here, this excellent Feng Shui will be yours..."
"Okay, please stop nagging. I can rent the yard, but the price you mentioned must be halved."
Xu Shu pushed open the door of the south wing, and a strong musty smell rushed out.
"That won't work. Without this price, there is no such price in the entire south of the city. Don't use me for sassafrasing."
"Yeah, the whole Chengnan District doesn't have this price, so why has your house been vacant for more than a year and not rented out?
As far as I know, the houses in your neighborhood are not very easy to rent.
I don’t need to say more about what happened next door to you last spring. "
Lao Zheng immediately felt like an eggplant beaten by frost: "You have already asked me, what do you want to do with me? Five yuan is five yuan, but as agreed, you have to sign a long-term contract, starting at least two years."
Just after the Spring Festival last year, a tenant next door hanged himself. Lao Zheng's family was so frightened that they found a house two streets away overnight.
I originally pointed to renting out this house as soon as possible to offset the rent, but I didn't expect that the legend of the hanged man became more and more intense, which caused the rent in this area to drop sharply, and Lao Zheng's house became vacant.
Xu Shu's arrival today is a sudden joy for Lao Zheng.
With a creak, the back door was pushed open. Under the moonlight, the sand lake covering an area of more than a hundred acres was like a piece of pure amber embedded in the city.
The houses on the left and right all had walls built near the water, but No. 36 had a vacant space. It was like an enclave near the water. It was quiet and deserted. Xu Shu was very satisfied.
This time, he came to the 36th to save money underground as Yang Shouyi said.
By talking to Lao Zheng, he learned that this house was bought by Lao Zheng's father from a down-and-out young official.
In this way, the matter of hiding silver underground is almost inseparable.
Xu Shu originally wanted to dig out the money and leave, but he just gave up the deposit.
At this moment, the more he looked at the house, the more satisfied he became, and he began to think about staying there temporarily.
He doesn't plan to live in his own old house anymore, the goal is too big.
After all, the existence of Yan Zi's gang and Gu Chun is always a hidden danger.
Although the wing room of the repair shop is safe, it is not very private because people come in and out, so it can only be used as a temporary residence.
Therefore, renting this house for long-term living is also a good choice.
"That's all, I'll give you another one yuan, four yuan to the main office. One deposit, three, and the rent starts from three years. You can't change it anymore."
Xu Shu did not express his position for a long time, which made Lao Zheng extremely anxious.
"Fine."
Xu Shu finally let go.
"When will the contract be signed?"
Lao Zheng couldn't wait.
"If you can find the right person, sign it now."
"readily!"
An hour later, the two contracts were signed.
After receiving a bag of silver dollars, Lao Zheng finally felt relieved.
In the next few days, Lao Zheng was in a good mood and felt that the house was rented to the right person.
In his eyes, Xu Shu was just an ignorant young man from a rich family. How could he rent a house and decorate it like crazy?
After the lease was completed, construction teams came in for several days. The originally dilapidated house, after being repaired by the construction team, was completely new, if not magnificent.
What surprised Lao Zheng even more was that Xu Shu also invited people from the telephone exchange to come in and spend a lot of money to pull a phone line.
Lao Zheng couldn't help but imagine the wonderful prospect of the lease expiring in three years and the rent rising.
…
At 9:30 in the morning, Chunshen Branch of Dazhou Bank, VIP room.
Xu Shu came here early in the morning, and after showing his black card, he was immediately ushered into the VIP room.
After asking about Xu Shu's lack of breakfast, the long-legged beauty representative in the VIP room filled the tea table in only twenty minutes.
After taking the last mouthful of fresh and thick milk, Director Fang stepped through the door.
Xu Shu stood up and shook hands with Director Fang. After exchanging greetings, Xu Shu expressed his intention. He wanted to transfer a sum of money into silver coins so that Director Fang could check the quality so that he could exchange it.
Soon, a fifty-two-weight silver ingot was placed on the coffee table. Director Fang held the silver ingot in both hands. After inspecting it carefully, he put it to his nose and sniffed several times: "The official silver from Jin'an for thirteen years is of such good quality. New. How many do you have? I want them all."
"How much is the price?"
"Official silver like this has a certain value as a cultural relic, but it is relatively recent, so the value of the cultural relic is not too high. If I find one I really like and can exchange it for a good price, I can give it a discount of 20%, how about it?"
"justice!"
Xu Shu asked the price at an outside bank, but the price was only 18% higher at most.
"How many do you have?"
"Four hundred ingots."
"Twenty thousand taels?" Director Fang raised his eyebrows, "You really have a lot of money!"
Of course he could tell that Xu Shu's silver ingot was dug out freshly, and it had a strong earthy smell.
But everyone has their own destiny, and he doesn't want to meddle in other people's business.
An hour later, Xu Shu's account had an increase of 28,089 yuan. Taking into account the original balance, the total deposit exceeded 33,000 yuan.
Xu Shu was not very excited because he had to build an Anbang temple in Snake Mountain in the shortest possible time.
This is a major event that concerns thousands of people. After all, if Yang Shouyi is offended, lives will be ruined.
Thinking of Director Fang's great energy, Xu Shu told him that he wanted to build a temple and asked Director Fang to help contact experts in building temples.
Director Fang was taken aback: "Donate to the temple? Snake Mountain? Why do you have such an idea? Well, I mean, donating and building a temple is a big achievement and it costs a lot of money. Besides, at your age, it seems..."
The government has always provided generous incentives for donating money to build temples. After all, belief in gods and Buddhas can help soothe the world's people.
But except for wealthy people who care about the theory of Yin De, very few people spend a lot of money to donate money to build temples.
Xu Shu said: "In the past, I made a great wish to donate to the temple. Now let's consider it as a wish fulfilled."
Director Fang said: "There is a Tanxiang Temple in Jiyun Mountain, and the first Yuxi elder is dedicated to Guangdong Zen Lingyalan.
Snake Mountain is also a famous mountain. If you are willing to open a temple there, Elder Yuxi must be very willing to send monks to host it. "
"I wonder how much it will cost?"
"You need to find someone to handle this. I happen to have an old friend who specializes in temple construction."
"Thank you."
Two hours later, a well-dressed middle-aged man arrived, calling himself Gong Jiang.
After Xu Shu finished his request, Jiang Gong said: "The main reason is that Snake Mountain is too steep and difficult to transport materials. To build a temple, even if it is smaller in scale, it cannot be built without 30,000 to 50,000 yuan."
Xu Shu's heart skipped a beat: "Money is not an issue. I donated to build this Anbang Temple. Firstly, it is to fulfill my wish, and secondly, I admire the reputation of Marshal Anbang. I will leave it all to Jiang Gong. I hope that Jiang Gong will complete it in the shortest possible time." Construction period.”
After the two parties reached an agreement, Xu Shu paid 10,000 yuan in advance, and Jiang went back to draw the drawings, agreeing to deliver the drawings and budget declaration three days later.
Director Fang was secretly surprised by Xu Shu's financial resources. There were not many people among the rich who could quietly spend tens of thousands of yuan to build a temple.
He was interested in making friends with Xu Shu, and reminded him: "Donating to build a temple, in addition to being rewarded by the government, can also be included in the charity list. If you donate to build a temple on your own, you will definitely be at the top of this year's charity list. In a few days, I recommend you to attend a charity dinner and get to know people from the Charity Federation."
Xu Shu agreed with a smile.
Three days later, Worker Jiang came up with the drawings and complete budget, and Xu Shu was heartbroken.
No matter how much the total investment is reduced, it will still exceed 35,000 yuan. With his current net worth, it is not enough.
The only thing that comforted him was that the three-month construction period would not require him to settle the amount at once.
Xu Shu accepted the drawings and budget sheet, went beyond Director Fang, and found another person in the industry to verify. After confirming what Jiang had reported, he signed a formal contract with Jiang.
