    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off

    Of course, it will take some time for the banknotes to be withdrawn from the major banks in Xingqing Prefecture - if such a large amount of cash is to be cashed in one go, several banks will have to vomit blood.

    In addition, Zhao Ran also had to seize the time to ask Li Laoshi to quickly sell the salt, spices, silk and satin, gold jewelry, grain and other items that had been discounted, and quickly organize the sale of cattle, sheep, horses, camels, medicinal materials and other items.  The team pulled back Daming.  The value of these materials will double when they arrive in Ming Dynasty!

    Through the funds raised at this auction, Tianmatai Temple sold 3,000 shares and received 60,000 taels of silver in one fell swoop.  Half of it was a thick stack of silver notes, stuffed into a two-foot-square sandalwood box, which looked quite shocking.  The remaining assets that were offset by the price were also harvested in countless ways.

    Xuan Tan sent flying talismans to Tianmatai Temple regardless of the cost. Within a few days, sixteen disciples led by the heads of the West Hall and the East Hall rushed to Xingqing Mansion under the starry night.

    Liang Xingxia vacated his small courtyard adjacent to the Jinbo Club to accommodate visitors from Tianmatai Temple. These monks stayed at home and guarded the wooden boxes and large boxes of belongings day and night, which made Zhao Ran laugh and cry.

    But not long after he smiled, he felt a little weak.  The first person in the west hall and the first person in the east hall proposed to meet the master.  Zhao Ran thought for a while and found an excuse to hide out.  These two leaders are both monks in the bhikkhu realm. It's just a repayment if they don't pay attention. Once they use their magical powers to see Zhao Ran, Zhao Ran's magic weapon mask will be exposed.

    Two days later, Abbot Long Yang once again led three deacons from the temple to Xingqing Mansion.

    Now, Zhao Ran felt greater pressure - Long Yang asked to meet with "Cheng Dongjia".

    As an important partner of Jinbo Club and a shareholder of Tianma Pharmaceuticals, the abbot of Tianmatai Temple asked for a meeting. It was difficult to shirk it no matter what. He could avoid the first day of the lunar month but not the fifteenth, unless Zhao Ran fled and returned now.  Daming, otherwise there is no way to escape both emotion and reason.

    ??????????????????????????????After Liang Xingxia announced at the door of the house, he was quickly welcomed in by Xuan Tan, and then met a group of monks from Tianmatai Temple.

    Seeing that there were only the abbot Long Yang, the head of the east and west halls, and the monk Xuantan in the house, Liang Xingxia made it clear why he was here, and he came to apologize for Cheng Dong's family.

    "The Chengdong family doesn't want to meet? Why is that?" Abbot Long Yang was very puzzled, but he was a senior monk who was only one step away from achieving Arhat status, so he was not angry.

    Liang Xingxia said: "Chengdong's reason is actually very simple. After all, he comes from Ming Dynasty."

    The leader of the West Hall asked: "You want to explain that Xia is an enemy country and cannot communicate with each other. Then why did the Chengdong family create such a big situation in Xingqing Mansion?"

    Liang Xingxia explained: "Now the two countries are still confronting each other in Baima Mountain. He is a Ming businessman who does business in private to earn some supplementary money. Although it is not on the table, it is a practice that has been common for hundreds of years and no one will criticize it.  What does he do? Even if you talk about business with Master Xuan Heng and Master Xuan Tan, it is okay. But after all, you are different. You are either the abbot or the leader. If the Cheng family and the eminent monks openly meet and interact with each other, not only will the Ming Dynasty not agree, but even this  I¡¯m afraid it can¡¯t be justified in front of all parties in the Qing government. It¡¯s like cooperating with Guisi, why bother to bring out Tianma Pharmaceutical? It¡¯s also to have something in the middle to deceive others.¡±

    With such an explanation, the abbot and the two chief ministers understood. Abbot Long Yang said: "Shopkeeper Liang, this is because we have not thought carefully. Please tell Mr. Cheng to apologize on our behalf."

    Liang Xingxia said: "This is out of the question. In fact, the Chengdong family still wants to meet all the eminent monks, but it's a pity that the situation is not controlled by others If word spreads, the Chengdong family has a large family in Ming Dynasty, and everyone above them also has  Tianlongyuan"

    The monks nodded, and Liang Xingxia added: "Although we can't meet each other, Cheng Dong's family has always cared about your affairs. He has been in Cuiming Mountain these two days, busy organizing matters for you at Cuiming Mountain Villa. Everyone  If you have any ideas, you can put them forward through me or Master Xuantan, and the Chengdong family will definitely satisfy you."

    When Liang Xingxia helped cover up, Zhao Ran was indeed at the foot of Cuiming Mountain.

    Cuiming Mountain and dozens of surrounding hills, as well as the mountain valley formed by two streams, are the territory of the Yeli family. The Yeli family built a manor by the Tuotuo River at the foot of Cuiming Mountain. Yeli Huaide accompanied Zhao  Ran live here.

    Cuiming Mountain is not high, and the highest point is only about thirty feet away from the valley. However, there are several fairly gentle mountain flats in the mountain. The largest one is about sixty or seventy acres of land, and the smallest one is three or four acres.  Therefore, Zhao Ran took the initiative and planned to build Mingcui Villa here.

    The largest mid-level terrace will be used to build Tianmatai Temple and a pharmaceutical workshop, while several other mid-level terraces will be used to build medicinal planters.

      It is said that Zhao Ran has already reached the deadline and it is time to return to Ming Dynasty, but he has such a personality. As long as he does not go back for a day, he will always involuntarily "fulfill his mission", which is called "responsibility and responsibility".  ", to put it bluntly, "loves tossing."

    Cuiming Mountain has been transferred from the Yeli family¡¯s estate to Tianma Pharmaceutical, and Tianma Pharmaceutical paid a total of 500 taels of silver to the Yeli family.

    It¡¯s just a barren mountain. There are no less than 300 small barren mountains like this in Yelijia in the entire Xia Kingdom. Even the name Cuiming Mountain was added by Zhao Ran. More than a month ago, this hill had no name at all.  It can be exchanged for five hundred taels of silver, which is considered a small profit.

    The reason why Yeli Huaide had the patience to accompany Zhao Ran was that, firstly, he admired Zhao Ran's business experience and wanted to follow Zhao Ran to figure out how to "behave in the world"; secondly, his old man, Privy Councilor  Deputy envoy Yeli Wangrong was very interested in the "Plan of Cuiming Villa" conceived by Zhao Ran and asked him to come over and see how it was done.

    Thanks to Zhao Ran, the Yeli family has made a lot of money recently, which not only provides for the supply of the new cavalry command, but also saves tens of thousands of taels.  Therefore, Yeli Wangrong wanted to build a certain mountain villa based on the style of "Cuiming Villa" as a summer resort for the Yeli family.

    Zhao Ran and Yeli Huaide did not need to consider these issues as to how to build and construct the building specifically. They mainly made suggestions based on the planning drawings and made on-site modifications if needed.

    In the evening of that day, Yeli Huaide came out of Zhao Ran's room and went to rest. Zhao Ran was tired for a day and was ready to take a break and continue practicing his Innate Merit Sutra.

    As soon as he took the water and took a sip, he heard a knock on the door. Zhao Ran thought that Ye Lihuaide had come back to see him for something, so he went to open the door.

    But I saw a tall and thin old monk standing under the moonlight.

    The courtyard door outside the room was closed tightly, and there was no one around the old monk to introduce him. He stood at the foot of the steps at night, looking at Zhao Ran with a smile. It was strange that Zhao Ran felt guilty.

    Although Zhao Ran has just entered the realm of Taoist priests and is just a small monk, he has experienced many magic battles since his debut. He has rich experience in facing enemies. In just a moment, Zhao Ran has already pulled the array disks and spells in his storage.  After going over the weapons and talismans, how to set up the formation, which magic weapon to activate for self-defense, and which talismans to use to attack, a strategy to deal with the enemy was formulated in the blink of an eye.

    However, Zhao Ran had no idea whether he could defeat the old monk in front of him.  His whole body was extremely tight, ready to take action at any time.

    Just as he was thinking about how to escape, the old monk clasped his hands at the foot of the steps and said, "Amitabha, please forgive me for coming here without warning."

    Zhao Ran calmed down: "Who is the master? Please forgive me for being clumsy. Why do you come here late at night?"

    The old monk said: "The poor monk is the abbot of Tianmatai Temple, and his Buddhist name is Longyang."

    "Master, you are reallyan expertelite" Zhao Ran's tense nerves relaxed a little, but he felt a little unhappy.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the way, you still force yourself to do it, and come here in the middle of the night, who are you trying to scare?

    The old monk felt ashamed and said: "Shopkeeper Liang Da has already informed the poor monk about the Chengdong family's concerns, but shopkeeper Liang Da said that the Chengdong family also wanted to meet the poor monk, so the poor monk came without informing him. The Chengdong family is relieved.  , no one knows about the poor monk¡¯s coming.¡±

    Zhao Ran was speechless and said to himself, Master, are you really okay with this?  Liang Xingxia may have said some kind words, but do you really take these kind words seriously?

    But then I thought about it, the monks of Tianmatai Temple that I came into contact with, whether it was Xuan Tan or Xuan Heng, including two third-generation monks of bamboo generation, were all dumbfounded. Could it be that this was the inheritance of Tianmatai Temple?

    Since you have already come, it is better to stay behind closed doors, so Zhao Ran had no choice but to welcome the old monk into the room, with a smile on his face, and pour the tea enthusiastically.

    "Come on, Master. This is Tianshan Snow Lotus Tea. Although Snow Lotus was priced at a low price a while ago, it is actually a good thing with significant medicinal effects. After being made into tea, although it is slightly bitter, it is sweet after the bitterness. By the way.  Master, if your temple has a surplus of silver, you can use it to purchase some snow lotus, and the price will definitely rise in the future."

    Hearing that it was proposed to acquire Snow Lotus again, Long Yang¡¯s eyes twitched and he said with a wry smile: ¡°Thank you, Mr. Cheng, for the advice, but Snow Lotus¡­ I don¡¯t dare to touch this anymore, our temple is really scared.¡±
