I thought Uncle Ma would be speechless or even embarrassed this time.
But it turns out that I am still too young...
Listening to the phone call, Uncle Ma said very quickly: "You know 6, what you get is just a drop in the bucket, and it is just a drop in the bucket for building the temple. Do you know how much a two or three-meter-high statue in the temple costs?" ?Do you know how much a pillar in the hall costs?"
I scratched my head: "Uh... no... I don't know..."
Uncle Ma said: "Not to mention anything else, just the three statues of the founder of the Sanqing Dynasty, the little money you two spent together is not enough. Master has good intentions, let you take the small head, I will take the big head, and lead you to do it Merit, you still question Master, how sad!”
This...this old guy actually acted with me...
But what he said seems to be true. The statues in the temple are actually very expensive, and the better the material, the more expensive they are. It is said that they cost hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, including the pillars in the main hall.
To put it this way, Uncle Ma really took care of us and only let us repair some scattered places. The most expensive ones were borne by his family.
I quickly apologized: "Oh, I'm sorry, Uncle Ma. I didn't question you. I just said it casually. Thank you Master for helping us do meritorious deeds!"
Hearing what I said, Uncle Ma also pulled back and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry. If you really can't repay the loan after one year, will Uncle Ma still be able to ignore you? Really, who will follow the other?" , isn’t my money your money, and isn’t your money my money?”
What he said was so open, but I always felt like something was wrong.
I felt my head was a little itchy again, so I scratched the back of my head: "Uh... yes... it seems... that's what happened..."
Uncle Ma said: "So, if our family doesn't speak the same language, when the time comes, Xiao Ma and I will take care of you..."
I said weakly: "Thank you...thank you master...thank you Xiaoma...then I will buy it?"
Uncle Ma said: "Buy it if you like it. Uncle Ma supports you. Buying a house is a major event in life. You must choose carefully and consider all aspects. Think carefully before making a move. Don't be careless."
This old cunning guy talked about the car for a long time, but he didn't say whether he would let me buy it. Is he afraid of taking responsibility?
I added, "Then I'll send over the house plan later. Uncle Ma, can you help me take a look?"
Uncle Ma said: "That's no problem, just send it over and I'll take a look... Oh, by the way, there's one more thing. The temple has been spending a lot of money recently and there's no rice. I'll ask Xiao Ma to go down the mountain to buy some rice tomorrow. When Baijin comes back, will he make a fortune with you?"
Beg...alms? ?
I thought to myself that you are quite good at arranging things, but without me realizing it, you got another 200 kilograms of rice!
But tens of thousands were spent previously, so these two hundred kilograms of rice are nothing. They are all for meritorious deeds!
So, I can only agree obediently. I'm sorry, Uncle Ma. Now I am also very poor. I can only transfer 500 yuan to you to buy rice!
Then I told Uncle Ma about the Lord of Light on the phone again. I said that this might be a new type of scam, and it was educational in nature, so we should be more vigilant.
Uncle Ma said to you, please stop meddling in other people’s business. This kind of thing is actually endless, and it has never stopped since ancient times, and there are more and more tricks. On the one hand, its purpose is to make money, on the other hand, it is to deceive people. To achieve some ulterior motive.
I asked Uncle Ma, what can we do in the face of this situation?
Uncle Ma said that all you can do is provide some positive guidance and advise everyone to be more vigilant, but there is no other good way.
For example, this is like those who engage in electronic fraud. They are all over the world, and their headquarters are overseas. Therefore, even the country has a headache for them, but they can only do more anti-fraud propaganda and increase the intensity of crackdowns, but they are still It can't be wiped out, it can't be wiped out. What do you think you can do with your own strength?
There are also those illegal pyramid schemes that sell health care products in different ways to deceive the elderly. A box of vitamins can be sold for hundreds of dollars in a different packaging. This is still good. If you are a conscience-stricken person who mixes some laxatives with flour, tell them You are an effective weight loss drug!
Yes, Uncle Ma is right. There are too many such things in society. Although I can't stand it, there is actually nothing I can do about it.
For people like Liu Laosan and Saint Ying Yuan who fight alone, they can fight if they bump into each other, but for people with a pedagogical nature, to be honest, I have no idea how to deal with them.
Because they will use this kind of thoughts and theories to brainwash people and develop followers. This is definitely beyond my control alone.
Besides, this has nothing to do with Chumaxian. Although I took over the order from Tiesha Mountain, I can't control it that much. It's good if I can guard my own one-third of an acre.
After hanging up the phone, I sighed for a while, then checked my bank card balance, and then transferred one thousand to Uncle Ma.
What I just said was only five hundred yuan, but I still have enough money in the card, so I thought I might transfer more. They have no income at the temple, and they sent me back to make money. I have to take responsibility!
Thinking about how much Taoist Zixu has endured to build the temple, it’s nothing if I spend more money!
However, buying a house really has to be put on the agenda, otherwise the more than 30,000 yuan will be gone in a flash, and I have to prevent fire, theft, and Uncle Ma!
But buying a house is a big deal, and I still have to do a comprehensive investigation, so I immediately sent the floor plan to Uncle Ma and asked him to take a look.
It didn’t take much effort, but Uncle Ma wrote back, saying that there was no problem with the house and that it was suitable in every aspect. The only drawback was that it was a bit small. But I was still young and I didn’t need to put too much pressure on myself. I could change to a smaller house later if I liked it. buy it!
Uncle Ma's words encouraged me, so I drove around the building every day and became familiar with the neighborhood.
When buying a house, you must look at several factors, such as medical care, education, transportation, and living environment. These are not only related to the convenience of future life, but also to the appreciation of the house.
I've been around for about three or four days, and I've basically figured it all out, and I feel that it's pretty good from all aspects.
The only thing the school is not good at is that it’s not a key school, but I don’t even have a partner now, so why should I worry about it?
So I made up my mind to build a small apartment first, so that I could at least have a place to settle down.
Besides, Uncle Ma and I are still renting a house. After the house is handed over, we will no longer have to rent a house.
But having said that, Uncle Ma's store house should be handed over earlier than this house...
My head is full of longing, and at the same time I am ready to buy a house in the next day!
