casket of old days

Chapter 86 For the country and the people

The next day, in front of the Wang Family Ancestral Tomb.

Chu Qiguang pointed to the vast world in front of him, and explained to the abbot, Fa Yuan, Wang's father and son, and Hao Yongtai behind him.

The abbot of Qingyang Temple is a kind old man with white beard and hair, named Chenzhu. He looks ordinary, but he holds the huge power of the county's beliefs.

"Everyone sees the beautiful mountains and rivers, the suitable terrain, and the balance of yin and yang. This is a first-class good feng shui. The elders buried here will definitely protect the future generations of Jinshi..."

Hao Yongtai, Abbot Chenzhu, and Fa Yuan all nodded secretly when they heard the words. One of them came from a noble family, and the other two were Taoist priests taught by a heavenly master.

The place in front of me is indeed a rare treasure of geomantic omen, especially if it is connected to the sky, it is very suitable for use as a cemetery.

While Chu Qiguang was explaining, several people looked at the album in their hands. It was something that Chu Qiguang called Wang Cailiang to make overnight, and he called it a butt kick.

Looking at the future planning maps on the picture albums, there are various numbers of rich people in Qingyang County, the growth of cemeteries, the scarcity of geomantic treasures, and the number of followers of Tianshi Sect...all of them are Chu Qiguang These days, researching the data of Qingyang County, several rows of data is very convincing.

Originally, for the Han Dynasty, from the emperor to the common people, who were very superstitious about Feng Shui luck, the funeral process and the selection of cemeteries have always been the top priority, and they are considered to be important matters related to the family foundation.

Hearing Chu Qiguang's explanation at this moment, everyone became serious.

"...Although there is a Meishan spirit vein in the county, since the founding of the country and Taiping 200 years ago, the number of cemeteries in Shangfeng and Shangshui has been decreasing year by year, while the number of people dying in Qingyang County has increased year by year. As a cemetery with good geomantic omen, there is no one in ten."

"And every household in Qingyang County believes in Tianzun. Before and after the burial, they hope that the Taoist priests in the temple will come to chant scriptures. However, the number of Taoist priests in the temple is limited, and they can't take care of the people of the whole county. It is a great pity."

"Now there are officials from Wang who offer this treasured place of geomantic omen, abbot Chenzhu is willing to open a new Taoist temple, invite Taoist Xuanyuan for the cemetery, and the Hao family's good family is willing to build a bridge in the county's Zhonghao right..."

"In the future, mourning halls will be set up here, paper money will be delivered, scriptures will be chanted, rituals will be performed, and funeral services will be integrated."

"...the Taoist priests don't have to run around, and they don't have to work hard in boats and cars. They can pray, chant scriptures, and practice for the buried people in the whole county in the temple."

"...The tombstones are built in batches... various instruments and paper bundles can also be purchased in batches...reused... Based on my estimation yesterday, the cost of funeral expenses can be reduced by at least [-]%."

"We can also launch wall burials, flower bed burials, tree burials... and other services to make use of every inch of space and provide them cheaply to ordinary people who can't afford cemeteries."

Looking at the detailed data and listening to Chu Qiguang's wonderful explanation, everyone present seemed to be able to see that in the future, there will be a lot of tombstones erected on this land, which will become the cemetery CBD of Qingyang County, the garden of life, and the county. The nobles and common people flock to it.

The common people can enjoy the geomantic treasure land at a cheaper price, and invite the masters to recite scriptures.

Taoist temples can increase revenue, and even take over the entire county's cemetery market in the future.

The Wang family and the Hao family can choose the best place to be buried here, and they can also share part of the revenue of the cemetery. They can also start businesses such as inns, restaurants, gifts, etc. around the cemetery, creating a large number of jobs.

Even the environment in Qingyang County... will become better because of the concentration of cemeteries.

After listening to Chu Qiguang's explanation, several people were a little overwhelmed, as if it was the first time they saw how they could make money like this.

If Chu Qiguang were to explain what they feel now, it would be that death is inevitable and cemeteries are just needed. However, the number of customers in Qingyang County who bury Fengshui treasures and invite priests to do it is very small, and the market has a huge room for incremental imagination.

And because Tianshijiao has the only legal qualification to preside over funerals in the county, and this land has the best feng shui pattern in the county, so the drainage and repurchase of customers are not a problem. As long as the market can be educated well, there will be huge imagination.

In the future, everyone in the county will have ground burials, and every family will read scriptures. Wang's family, Hao's family, and Qingyang Temple will help the whole county become a large county of burials... oh no, it is a county of kindness.

Abbot Chenzhu of Qingyang Temple looked at Chu Qiguang with satisfaction, and thought that this is a talent for management and business. Qingyang Temple lacks such talents who are willing to do business in a down-to-earth manner. Those who exploit the common people or seek immortality, their performance has been declining year after year, and the money they earn is getting less and less year after year.

So he asked: "My little friend, are you interested in becoming a teacher?"

Chu Qiguang said: "My next ambition is the imperial examination."

Those who entered the religion during the Han Dynasty were no longer allowed to take the imperial examinations. Abbot Chenzhu shook his head regretfully upon hearing this.

Taoist Fayuan watched this scene and knew that the abbot was very satisfied with Chu Qiguang's plan, so he began to discuss the specific details of the transaction with the other party.

The Wang family specially summoned the whole family's servants, took out the treasured wine and dishes, and directly held a banquet to entertain everyone.

The guests and the host had a good time, and everyone became friends, and also formed an ally of interests because of the relationship of money.

In particular, Chu Qiguang and Abbot Chen Zhu chatted and laughed happily. After discussing some Taoist management strategies, the relationship between the two parties seemed to be better.

Under Chu Qiguang's suggestion, Hao Yongtai asked Abbot Chenzhu to help deal with Li Changqing at the banquet.

As expected of a professional, the abbot smiled and said, "How can you say it's dealing with it? I saw that Li Qianhu beheaded the devil in the county government office, but he seemed to be infected with the devil's energy unintentionally. He was about to invite him to sit in the temple. , to perform an exorcism for him."

Chu Qiguang asked again what if Li Changqing used force?

Fa Yuan on the side laughed loudly, and only said that he wished Li Changqing could use force, and that the Heavenly Master had his own means of subduing demons.

At the end of the banquet, before Chu Qiguang left, he was pulled aside by Wang Chengwang and stuffed 500 taels of silver.

Wang Chengwang said: "This time the danger was saved and the danger was turned into safety. I am really grateful to Nephew Chu Xian. A little money is not a respect."

Chu Qiguang took the money and exchanged greetings with a smile, then returned to the county with the abbot and Hao Yongtai.

On the way back, Chu Qiguang stuffed 200 taels of silver into Fa Yuan, and thanked him: "Thanks to the help of the Taoist leader this time."

……

On the way back to the county seat, three men and women in black robes stood on the hillside, staring at the official road, as if they were waiting for someone.

The leading woman suddenly stared: "Here we come! It's Chu Qiguang!"

A black-robed man laughed and said: "Finally here, just like what Ding Daoxiao informed us this morning, this fellow has finally left the county seat. This fellow is usually too cautious to give the chance of assassination at all. Now he can finally intercept If he's gone, then don't blame us for being rude."

Another black-robed old man said: "Ding Daoxiao said he would kill him, but we can take him back and see what secrets he knows..."

The three of them sprinted towards the official road, but the woman stopped immediately after taking a few steps, and said in shock, "Is that the abbot of Qingyang Temple?"

The man in the black robe said with an ugly face: "Slip away! Before they find us."

"Damn, is Ding Daoxiao trying to kill us? Let us attack the abbot of Qingyang Temple? Go back and settle the score with him!

……

That night, Li Changqing was wielding a knife in the small rented courtyard. This was his habit, and he never let go of his sharpening of the knife technique every day, making the demon-slaying knife in his hand as familiar as his own.

The other subordinates, following such a boss, naturally practiced their own martial arts, looking as if they were working hard.

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was suddenly kicked open, and Chu Qiguang Shi Shiran walked in.

Li Changqing said coldly: "Chu Qiguang? Are you crazy or do you want to die?"

Chu Qiguang looked at Li Changqing with concern, and said: "Master Li, you killed the devil in the yamen a few days ago, I was afraid that you would be accidentally infected by the devil, so I specially invited you to go to the Qingyang Temple to do it." Exorcism."

Li Changqing's eyes were filled with coldness: "Chu Qiguang, I should have told you that if you dare to interfere with Zhenmagic's work, I will never let you go..."

At this moment, a group of Taoist priests appeared behind Chu Qiguang and surrounded everyone in the town of magic.
