Chapter 181 The richest man in the world
Hurrying is boring, with Xiao Mo's character, he definitely wouldn't run all the way with his head bored, it would be too boring.

After starry nights with Zhao Guanying, they finally entered Fengqiao Town in the evening of the second day.

There is a famous temple in Fengqiao Town, Hanshan Temple.

Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, the bell rings to the passenger ship in the middle of the night...

Xiao Mo and Zhao Guanying didn't take the boat, they hired the handlebars. After they were sent to Fengqiao Town, they found an inn to rest for the night.

Anyway, Suzhou was right around the corner, so Xiao Mo was not in a hurry, so he had a good night's sleep, and early the next morning, he and Zhao Guanying came to Hanshan Temple, one of the ten famous temples in the legend.

Hanshan Temple is located in Fengqiao Town. The gate of the temple is built near the water, with an elegant and quiet environment and a pleasant mood.

At the end of June, Xiao Mo also held a folding fan in his hand, dressed in a white robe, chatted and laughed with Zhao Guanying, and stepped onto the arch bridge in front of Hanshan Temple.

Occasionally, Xiao Mo would open the fan a few times, looking like a literati. Whenever Xiao Mo opened the folding fan, people with good eyesight would see that on the fan, there was not a single word, not even a little ink. is blank.

Although the red sun has not been rising, but in front of the gate of Hanshan Temple, there are already many people who come to visit like Xiao Mo, and the gate of the temple is opened early, some monks and little monks who sweep the floor are busy inside and outside the gate.

"Let's go! I'll take you to see the bell tower..." Xiao Mo winked at Zhao Guanying. The ringing of the bell at Hanshan Temple last night had a profound impact on Zhao Guanying. It's no wonder that Zhao Guanying is a martial arts practitioner and naturally alert. , especially when sleeping at night, Hanshan Temple suddenly came in the middle of the night, can it not impress him?
Later, Zhao Guanying learned from Xiao Mo that the land of Wuzhong, that is, the temples in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, had the habit of ringing the 'Ding Ye Zhong' in the middle of the night, and each time it was struck, it was [-] times!

After walking for a while, they came to the remote area of ​​Hanshan Temple, and then saw a huge bronze bell hanging in the tall pavilion on the cliff facing the river. Need three hugs!

"No wonder the bell rings so loudly at night!" Zhao Guanying was surprised, pointed to the bronze bell and said to Xiao Mo, "I'm afraid it weighs thousands of catties?"

"Almost..." Xiao Mo nodded, based on his previous life understanding, it seems that the weight of the giant bell in Hanshan Temple is only two to three tones.

"So much copper..." Zhao Guanying clicked his tongue and asked, "How much silver?"

"This..." Xiao Mo became speechless, looked at Zhao Guanying with some dissatisfaction, and said in his heart: You think I know everything!How much copper was spent on this clock, I'm afraid even the monks in this temple can't tell.

Just when Xiao Mo didn't know how to answer Zhao Guanying's question, suddenly a loud voice came from behind the two of them.

The voice said: "This bell was cast by the Xiu family in Suzhou 30 years ago. It weighs [-] jin. It is all made of high-quality brass. The bell also invited famous masters to engrave Buddhist inscriptions. To show off the merits of the Xiu family..."

repair home?Xiao Mo thought about it after hearing the words, this Xiu family has heard of it himself, and he mentioned the Suzhou Xiu family when he came to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to raise food for Li Jixian in Shen County, but in the end the Xiu family did not come to Shen County...

It is said that Xiu's family in Suzhou is extremely wealthy. It is no exaggeration to say that they are as rich as an enemy!

Since the copper bell was cast by the Xiu family, it made sense, after all, with the financial resources of the Xiu family, a few thousand catties of brass is just a drop in the bucket!
"Hehe...Brother, you have a lot of knowledge, let me be taught!" Xiao Mo turned his head and nodded at the man, and what caught Xiao Mo's eyes was a man slightly older than himself. He was born calm and upright, judging by his dress in silk and satin and accessories around his waist, he seems to be from a very good family.

At least, much stronger than Xiao Mo!
When Xiao Mo was in Shen County, he also made some money, and with the silver taels given to Yuniang by Qiao Zheng and Qiao Wenxuan, his family was extremely wealthy. Xiao Mo was at a disadvantage.

"How can it be regarded as knowledge..." The man shook his head, then smiled and said to Xiao Mo, "I haven't asked for advice yet!"

"Don't dare, Xiao Mo..." In Suzhou, Xiao Mo didn't need to hide his identity. After all, this is Suzhou, out of Lianghuai, and belongs to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It is estimated that his reputation will not be so big that even Suzhou is a household name!After reporting his name, Xiao Mo continued: "This is my good friend, surnamed Zhao, named Guanying..."

"Xiao Mo, Zhao Guanying..." The man pondered for a moment, looking thoughtful but somewhat forgotten, after thinking for a long time but still had no idea, he smiled at Xiao Mo and asked, "Hehe, you two are not from Suzhou. Bar?"

"No, from the north..." Xiao Mo replied to the man flatly. After all, he is away from home, so he must be on guard against others. He and the other party do not know each other, so there is no need to even report his hometown.

"North..." The man frowned, as if he was not used to Xiao Mo's tone of voice, but then the man returned to his normal expression, and said to Xiao Mo and the two of them, "In the name of Xiu..."

"The name of Xiu?" Xiao Mo frowned. Why does this name sound a bit weird?After a short moment of astonishment, Xiao Mo's eyes lit up immediately, and then he saw Xiu's name clearly.

It's no wonder that Xiu Zhiming's demeanor has everyone's demeanor, even when he speaks, he always has a flat tone. Now that I think about it, isn't Xiu Zhiming the current master of the Xiu family?
Of course, the name of Xiu is not old, he is not even 30 years old!
However, even if Xiu Zhiming is less than 30 years old, he is still the richest man in the world!Xiao Mo became excited, and suddenly felt that his decision to rest in Fengqiao Town last night was correct, and his decision to bring Zhao Guanying to Hanshan Temple early this morning was even more wise!
Unexpectedly, I was only here to admire the bell tower with the most cultural temperament in history, but I could also meet the world's richest man by chance. If this happened in the previous life, Xiao Mo would definitely go to buy lottery tickets, because luck is too much alright!

"Hehe... so it's Master Xiu, no wonder he appeared on the bell tower..." Xiao Mo smiled at Xiu Zhiming, which made Xiu Zhiming a little surprised.

"Your Excellency, do you know me?" Xiu Zhiming became strange. Today, he purposely didn't let his servants follow him, and he didn't inform the abbot of Hanshan Temple. recognize it?

What is puzzling is that this Xiao Mo... I don't know him at all, as if... I have never heard of it!
