Chapter 960: The Tollbooth Opens! Journey to the West Requires Payment First

The backyard of Pangu Temple.

The water mirror light screen was still lit.

Lin Xuan's Eye of Insight clearly saw the layers of isolation formations outside Jiangzhou City.

Zhunti thought he had hidden himself very well.

But he forgot one thing.

Lin Xuan had already placed a hidden mark at the root of the Zhunti Karma Network.

Even if Zhunti farted, Lin Xuan could follow the smell and find his way there.

Not to mention that he held the Heavenly Dao Life-Protecting Golden Talisman and personally escorted Jin Chanzi to his tenth reincarnation.

To Lin Xuan, this commotion was as bright as lighting a lantern in the night.

Lin Xuan slowly took a sip of the spiritual juice.

"Jiang Liuer".

"Finally, he was cast into a human."

"Those old bald monks of the Western Church died so tragically in their previous nine lives that they're almost traumatized now."

Beside her, Princess Wansheng held the Azure Wave Divine Pearl, looking at the dense runes in the water mirror.

"My lord, is that the tenth incarnation of Jin Chanzi?"

Lin Xuan nodded.

"The potential of a pilgrim on the journey to the West."

Se Xie sat not far away, the lines of the Thousand Poisons Horse Whip flashing on his palm.

She had only been in the Pangu Temple for a short time and was not yet familiar with its intricate layout.

Upon hearing "pilgrims on a pilgrimage," she frowned and said, "The Western religions are in such a state, yet they still dream of spreading their faith?"

Su Daji was calculating the revenue from Fangcun Mountain's live stream, without even looking up.

The poorer you are, the more you dream of turning things around.

"Poor people usually have big dreams."

The Holy Mother of Wudang added a casual remark.

"And they also have a lot of debt."

On the other side of the water mirror, the initial revenue from the secondary broadcast of Chaoge Teahouse had just been delivered.

The Fangcun Mountain White Lion Special Edition sold out.

The close-up of Mahasthamaprapta's mount is available for a separate fee, while the scene of Bodhi Patriarch brushing his fur has the highest replay rate.

Su Daji was very satisfied.

"My lord, after deducting the array plate maintenance fee, the revenue from the live stream at Fangcun Mountain is a net profit of 320,000 top-grade immortal stones."

"Among them, the Western religion white lion mount emoji pack, Chaoge Teahouse needs to purchase a long-term license."

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.

"Can."

"Leave 20,000 for the Great Sage and his companions as pocket money, and put the rest into the account."

The Holy Mother of Wudang immediately wrote it down.

Lin Xuan's gaze returned to the Jiangzhou Water Mirror.

Zhunti's formation was indeed well thought out.

To protect against fishermen.

Keep out stray dogs.

Pigpen protection.

Prevent loach.

Protect against birds of prey.

They even guard against dung beetles.

Lin Xuan found it hilarious.

"This old bald monk has really been messed up by Wutian."

"Everything he sees now looks like a death sentence."

Se Xie let out a cold laugh.

"Should."

"People who follow Western religions all smell dirty."

Lin Hai, nestled in Ao Cun's arms, couldn't understand what the adults were saying.

But when he saw the glittering golden talisman in the water mirror, he reached out his little hand to grab at the air.

Ao Cunxin reacted quickly and grabbed him.

"Don't grab me."

"That's a water mirror, not a toy."

Dissatisfied, Lin Hai turned his head to pull at the blue jade button on her clothes.

Ao Cunxin took a deep breath.

"You must have been just as mischievous as your dad when you were little."

Lin Xuan heard this and turned to look at her.

"Don't slander me."

"I was a very well-behaved child."

Su Daji said lightly, "I don't know if there are any records of my husband's childhood."

"But he's not very well-behaved now."

Princess Wansheng blushed and lowered her head, pretending not to hear.

Se Xie glanced at Lin Xuan, his ears burning slightly.

She is still getting used to the daily life at Pangu Temple.

Lin Xuan put down his cup and lazily raised his hand.

"Lin Ze".

"Lin Xi".

Two small figures immediately walked in from the side courtyard.

Lin Ze was dressed in a dark brocade robe, with spiritual crystal glasses perched on his nose, and holding an accounting jade slip in his arms.

Lin Xi tossed a coin in her hand, her small face delicate, her eyes dazzlingly bright.

Upon their appearance, the expressions of Su Daji and the Holy Mother of Wudang became subtle.

The God of Wealth team has arrived.

He's either collecting money or on his way to collecting money.

Lin Ze looked at the water mirror first, then at Lin Xuan.

"Father, is the target a new Western religious project?"

Lin Xuan smiled.

"clever."

Lin Xi's eyes lit up.

"Will it be possible to drop a treasure?"

Lin Xuan waved his hand.

"Don't drop it yet."

"This time, we're going for the long haul."

Lin Ze immediately sat down at the small table and opened the jade slip.

"Father said..."

Lin Xuan pointed to the geomantic map outside Jiangzhou City.

"Western religions want to create a Journey to the West."

"Starting from Jiangzhou, we will continue westward."

"The journey will take you through many mountain passes, waterways, and towns."

"Since they want to enter human territory, they must abide by the rules of the Great Shang Dynasty."

Lin Ze's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

"Toll fee".

Lin Xi added a sentence.

Land fees.

Su Daji put down the account book and instantly got into the zone.

"There are also road maintenance fees, public security management fees, monster removal fees, and cross-border religious propagation review fees."

The Holy Mother of Wudang said gently, "If you use the water source of Da Shang, you will also need to pay a water management fee."

Se Xie was stunned.

She discovered that the people at Pangu Temple had a mindset for making money that was more terrifying than poison.

Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

"right."

"From now on, register land for the Dashang toll station in advance along the inevitable route of the Journey to the West."

"All existing territories of the Great Shang Dynasty, major transportation routes for humankind, and mountain crossings and ferry crossings shall be registered."

"Not now."

"Reserve a spot first."

Lin Ze has started taking notes frantically.

"Project name?"

Lin Xuan thought for a moment.

"Dashang Westbound Road Comprehensive Service System".

Lin Xi blinked.

"Too serious."

Lin Xuan smiled and said, "That's what we call it to outsiders."

"Internally, it's called the Journey to the West Toll Station."

Lin Ze nodded.

"What are the pricing standards?"

Lin Xuan leaned back on the soft couch.

"First, whenever the pilgrimage team enters the area of ​​the Great Shang Road, a basic toll will be charged at each stop."

"Secondly, if any vehicle damages the road surface, an additional repair fee will be charged."

"Third, if monsters appear, Pangu Palace can provide monster-removal services, priced according to the monster's cultivation level."

"Fourth, if Western religions want to spread Buddhism on the road, they must obtain a temporary missionary permit."

Lin Xi raised the coin.

What should be done about unlicensed proselytizing?

Lin Xuan said calmly, "Confiscate the scriptures, impose a fine, and detain the person."

Su Daji immediately responded.

"The scriptures can be redeemed for a fee per page."

"If the money is not redeemed by the deadline, it will be sent to the Chaoge Printing House as a negative example."

The Holy Mother of Wudang added.

"We can also have Lin Ze create a blacklist."

"The Western Church has outstanding debts and a very low credit rating."

Lin Ze said in a serious tone: "The current credit rating of the Western Church is on the verge of bankruptcy, with a high risk of malicious default."

"It is recommended that all toll fees be prepaid."

Lin Xi nodded seriously.

"If they don't pay in advance, they'll take away their robes."

Lin Xuan smiled.

"Can."

"But don't scare the pilgrims to death."

"Don't let him die too quickly this time."

"We need to take it slow and steady."

Lin Ze's face was serious.

"Don't worry, Father."

"I understand."

"You can't fleece them all at once; you have to fleece them a little bit at a time."

Lin Xi delivered the finishing blow.

"Even if you pluck them bald, you can still sell their skin."

Se Xie remained silent for a long time before asking Princess Wansheng in a low voice.

"Are all the children in Pangu Temple like this?"

Princess Wansheng thought for a moment.

"These two are quite good at keeping accounts."

Se Xie looked at the children chasing the white cat in the yard in the distance.

"What about those who can't do math?"

Ao Cunxin hugged Lin Hai and sighed.

"They usually just rob it directly."

Se Xie suddenly realized that he had lived too naively in Poisonous Enemy Mountain before.

Lin Xuan raised his hand and conjured a map of the Great Shang Dynasty's Nine Provinces in mid-air.

The golden lines begin in Jiangzhou and slowly extend westward.

This is the general direction he deduced based on his memories of his previous life's journey to the West and the primordial earth veins.

Of course, with the script already in such a mess, the routes may not be exactly the same.

But the general direction will not change.

From Jambudvipa to Aparagodaniya.

He marked all the passes, rivers, mountains, and towns along the way where he could hold out.

Lin Ze looked at the map, his eyes shining as if he had seen a ground full of spirit stones.

"Dad, what if we registered all of these places?"

"In the future, Western religions will have to pay money for every step they take."

Lin Xuan nodded.

"right."

"Aren't they supposed to go through eighty-one tribulations?"

"Then we'll assign them eighty-one stations."

"Each stop has a standard fee."

Su Daji couldn't help but laugh.

"Husband, this is worse than outright robbery."

Lin Xuan was very serious.

"No, this is legal business."

"Western religions are in debt and don't pay their debts; they have a bad credit record."

"It's reasonable for us to mitigate risks in advance."

Our Lady of Wudang wrote a line in the ledger.

"The Journey to the West toll station project has been approved."

"Persons in charge: Lin Ze, Lin Xi."

"Regulatory: Su Daji, Wudang Shengmu".

"Military support: Demolition office may be called upon as needed."

Lin Xi excitedly flicked the precious gold coins.

"I'll register now."

Lin Ze had already stood up.

"First, go to Chaoge to get Jiang Ziya's stamp."

"Then seek another royal decree from Emperor Xin."

"Finally, we'll go to various places to erect monuments."

Lin Xuan reminded him, "Remember to bring the laws of the Great Shang Dynasty."

"We'll follow the rules this time."

Lin Xi blinked.

"What if they don't follow the rules?"

Lin Xuan looked at the mischievous children playing around in the yard.

Lin Dasheng is not here.

He was still riding a lion on Fangcun Mountain.

But there are plenty of capable kids in the family.

Lin Xuan said slowly, "Then let them learn the rules of the Pangu Palace."

Lin Ze nodded solemnly.

"Understood."

"Courtesy first, then force."

Lin Xi added.

"Courtesy is the ticket, soldiers are the brothers."

Lin Xuan was satisfied.

"This child is teachable."

Su Daji has already begun to draft business plans.

"Each toll station can be accompanied by a teahouse, inn, pet storage, and mount feed shop."

"If the pilgrimage team includes monkeys, pigs, horses, and monks, the service types can be further subdivided."

The Holy Mother of Wudang raises her head.

"The mount fodder shop can facilitate the exchange of Bodhi Patriarch's IOU."

"He already owes 10,000 yuan in advance payments for fodder."

Lin Xuan almost burst out laughing.

"Can."

"From now on, the supply of fodder for the White Lion Mountain in Fangcun Mountain will also be under the toll station system."

"Let the West teach itself to pay for the mounts we ride."

Princess Wansheng's shoulders trembled slightly as she listened.

Lu Xie then understood completely.

Lin Xuan's statement that it wasn't shabby was true.

He doesn't steal the source.

He seized the entire road.

In Jiangzhou City.

The woman from the Chen family gently turned over in her sleep.

The fetal breath in her womb was steadily protected by the Heavenly Life-Protecting Golden Talisman.

The isolation array set up by Zhunti slowly began to operate.

He thought he had defended against the Pangu Palace.

But he doesn't know.

Three hundred miles outside Jiangzhou City, a jade slip containing a land deed from the Shang Dynasty had already been generated in Lin Ze's hands.

Lin Ze lowered his head and wrote the first line.

"Jiangzhou East Ferry, Dashang Westbound No. 1 Toll Station".

"Estimated profits: Incalculable."

Lin Xi raised his hand, and the Treasure Coin slammed onto the jade slip.

A flash of golden light.

The land deed is completed.

The great merchant, Dao Qiyun, lowered his head and glanced in the direction of Jiangzhou.

Then, it let out a small, human-like burp.

At the same time.

Inside the dilapidated main hall of Mount Sumeru, Zhunti, who had just escaped back, hadn't even had a chance to sit down properly.

My heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He inexplicably felt a chill down his back.

Jieyin weakly opened his one eye.

"What's wrong?"

Zhunti frowned.

"have no idea."

"I have a feeling that I'm being watched somewhere again."

The guide remained silent for a moment.

"Is it Lin Xuan?"

Zhunti's face turned pale, and he quickly shook his head.

"impossible."

"I used the Heavenly Dao Life-Protecting Golden Talisman and also set up an isolation array."

"He couldn't possibly have found out."

After he finished speaking, the drafty main hall of Mount Sumeru suddenly became even colder.

The unease in Zhunti's heart not only did not disappear, but grew stronger.

Inside the Pangu Hall.

As Lin Xuan watched the first tollbooth land deed take shape, he raised his hand and pointed to the second red dot on the map.

"Next stop."

"Continue with the registration."
