The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 748 Jinshan Temple

"I also hope, but judging from the current situation, this hope is impossible to come true."

He glanced at Hui Ji calmly, thankfully Pei Wende had already gotten used to his senior brother's character, otherwise he would have spit on him now.

At least the other party has the status of a national teacher to support him, but he is a serious wandering monk.

Participating in such a large-scale purge of officialdom and gentry, if you are not careful, you will easily become an "outlaw fanatic".

If the officials and gentry in Runzhou hadn't gone too far, with Pei Wende's heart, he actually didn't want to get involved any further.

"Hey, you can still live if the sky does evil, but you can't live if you do evil yourself."

Without continuing this topic, Hui Ji turned around and asked a more critical question.

"Runzhou is currently facing a famine, and you are reopening the temple at this time. Do you want to reproduce the 'refugee camp' in Ningxiang County?"

After experiencing this catastrophe, although the entire Runzhou people can't say that there is no one out of ten, the two consecutive years of famine still displaced the people here.

Nowadays, all young and middle-aged men with ability and physical strength in Runzhou have run away.

Most of those who couldn't run away turned into bandits, and only a few old and weak women and children were still lingering.

Pei Wende chose to reopen the temple at this time, no matter how he thought it was impossible just for the incense of Zexin Temple.

"Evil and evil are the outside, and corrupt officials are the inside..."

"Regardless of the outside and inside, all I do is just can't bear to see the people here displaced."

Looking at the people at the foot of the mountain, every word Pei Wende said at this time came from the bottom of his heart.

Because through the Iron Gu scattered throughout Runzhou, Pei Wende knew more about the calamity that happened in this land than anyone else.

Obviously the past few years have just gotten better, but the people in this land are even more desolate than the famine in Tanzhou.

Lack of food and clothing is a normal phenomenon here.

Dodging bandits in the grass and struggling to survive under the exploitation of corrupt officials are daily routines here.

The Nandu embankment burst for two consecutive years, which not only resulted in the failure of the grain harvest, but also vividly demonstrated the evil of human nature.

"This place is different from Ningxiang. There is not a county Yin who supports you wholeheartedly, nor a rich girl who also silently supports you behind your back."

Pei Wende was able to gather the victims in the first place, and finally made them self-reliant, thanks in large part to his two older brothers and sisters.

However, today's Runzhou does not have this condition. It is simply impossible for Pei Wende to treat the disaster victims here, and even enable them to have a skill to make a living.

To be honest, even Hui Ji, who has exhausted his magical powers and mastered wisdom, still doesn't know where to start when facing this messy Runzhou.

"It's true that there isn't a county governor who is willing to delegate power, but here is a national teacher who is appointed by the emperor."

"As for the issue of money and food?"

"Although I did not inherit the shop of Pei's family, there is a golden mountain under my feet."

Holding tightly the gold mine in his hands, Pei Wende knew that this was where his confidence lay.

Now that Zhang Yuanze, governor of Runzhou, died, Pei Wende could use Huiji's name and the golden mountain under his feet to rebuild Runzhou from scratch.

"It just so happened that the Nandu dam was destroyed, and it was the time when people were urgently needed to build it."

"Using the method of 'relief with work' to gather people's hearts and restore water conservancy will not only keep the people alive this year, but also solve the food problem next year."

"And the only thing we need to do now is to replace this golden mountain under my feet with food."

If it was in the border of Tanzhou, it would be very difficult for Pei Wende to do all this.

But here is Runzhou, which is a waterway traffic artery adjacent to Yangzhou and Suzhou.

As long as you have money in this place, you don't have to worry about not being able to exchange for food. At best, you spend more money and less money.

"So, that's why you changed the name of Zexin Temple to Jinshan Temple?"

"You want to use the people who go up the mountain to spread the news about the discovery of Jinshan here?"

Hui Ji had to admit that although his junior brother was dedicated to practicing, he was more agile in various specific disaster relief methods than those officials who were actually in charge of disaster relief.

At the very least, Hui Ji never thought that she could use this means of changing her name to publicize the news of "I'm rich" to the outside world.

As long as the reputation of Jinshan Temple spreads, there will be no worries about those traders not transporting grain to Runzhou.

With enough food as a foundation, Pei Wende can show his ambitions, carry out infrastructure construction in the entire Runzhou, gather popularity, and then completely revitalize the economy here.

"This can only be said to be one of the reasons!"

Without denying Huiji's words, Pei Wende just shook his head calmly.

"This golden mountain was transformed by the dragon blood of the Dragon Girl Bodhisattva..."

"If the millions of people in Runzhou can be saved with Jinshan, it will also be a kind of salvation for Dragon Girl Bodhisattva."

As Pei Wende said, the golden mountain of Zexin Temple did not exist from the beginning.

It took hundreds of years for this golden mountain to be "polluted" by the dragon's blood overflowing from Suolongjing for a long time, before it gradually formed its current scale.

Regarding this point, Pei Wende only realized it after going deep into Suolongjing.

"There are both means and mercy..."

"Wen De, you are the 'Buddha Treasure' of our Tongqing Temple!"

Hearing Huiji's sudden emotion, Pei Wende was taken aback for a moment, and then reacted.

"If you don't tell me this, I'll forget it!"

"Did you send that phalanx back to Tongqing Temple because you thought I wouldn't protect you from disaster?"

"I don't believe that you didn't find Taoist Five Colors..."

"I don't even believe that with the Taoist deeds of five colors, I can find out your whereabouts!"

"You must have known about the existence of the 'Tai Sui Demon God' for a long time. You deliberately led him to Weishan to let me solve it!"

When Pei Wende said this, his tone was unusually affirmative.

After all, my senior brother practiced all his supernatural powers, and disasters at the level of "Tai Sui Demon God" could not be easily ignored anyway.

"Haha, I don't know about that, the main body didn't give me that memory."

Laughing and shaking her head in denial, Huiji remembered her identity as "Yingshen" at this moment.

It's just that Pei Wende didn't know how much truth and how much false what the other party said.

"If you really want to trouble that guy, I strongly support you!"

"It's better to give him two more punches and vent your anger for me."

"That guy obviously ran away, but he left me here to guard Suo Longjing."

"If you didn't come quickly, God knows how long I will stay here."

So, amidst the daily gags between the brothers and sisters, Zexin Temple ushered in the first day when it changed its name to Jinshan Temple.
