Mohist Tang

Chang’an City Da Ci’en Temple is a very incense temple in Chang’an City. Every year there are a large number of believers who worship the Buddha, and there are even many dignitaries. Upright Sect noble ladies are frequent visitors of the Great Ci’en Temple, and they always leave a lot of money for incense.

Apart from this, the reputation of Da Ci’en Temple is also very good. Whenever there are out-of-town scribes and poor scholars rushing to take an exam to Chang’an City, when there is nowhere to stay, Da Ci’en Temple is It is a free lodging. If ordinary people have a sudden change in their family circumstances, they go to the Dacien Temple to request relief, and the Dacien Temple will also generously donate.

Old Zhao Han in the suburb of Chang’an City is a believer in the Great Ci’en Temple. His wife Zhao Lady (Clan) is frail and sick. In order to pray for his wife every year, he donates incense money to the Great Ci’en Temple. Not in the minority.

However, during the Chinese New Year, his Zhao Lady (Clan) suffered a serious illness and had no money to treat the illness. In the end, he borrowed Sanguan money from Dacien Temple and spent three months for treatment. It got better at Mohist Hospital.

Hu Family!

Old Zhao Han helped Lady (Clan), who had just recovered completely, returned. In order to treat Lady (Clan) Zhao, they had spent a lot of their savings before. It can be said that they are family members. It’s poor.

“Fortunately, I met Divine Doctor Sun at this time, which gave Lady hope of recovery.” Old Zhao said thankfully. Zhao Lady (Clan)’s condition was extremely complicated, and it was Sun Simiao who personally took the action to improve Zhao Lady (Clan)’s condition.

Lady Zhao (Clan) recovered from a serious illness and was weak. Seeing the Hu Family, who was on the walls of the family, she couldn’t help but said: “It’s all due to the disappointing concubine body that made this family so difficult.”

Old Zhao Han shook his head and said: “Who told us that we were not born in Mohist Village, but fortunately, your illness has improved and everything will be fine.”

Now Mohist Village has gained fame, and the welfare of the villagers can be said to envy everyone, especially Mohist Village is backed by Mohist Hospital. Its free medical care can be said to be everyone’s dream.

“But how do you borrow the Sanguan money from the Great Ci’en Temple!” Zhao Lady (Clan) worriedly said, in order to treat her illness, this family has already been imprisoned, Sanguan money It’s not a small number.

Old Zhao Han clenched the teeth said: “You don’t have to worry about that. I will ask the grace of Ci’en Temple for some time. Now that your body has improved, I will go to Mohist Village to work. If you work hard, you can pay back within a year, just keep the field at home to recuperate.”

The general monthly salary in Mohist Village is around 300 yuan. If you work hard In one year, it will be nearly three to six hundred dollars, and the debts can be paid off by saving money.

Lady Zhao (Clan) was relieved, but before Old Zhao Han went to Dacien Temple, I saw the Tongji monk of Dacien Temple approaching the door accompanied by the chief.

“It turns out that the benefactor Hu has improved. It is really gratifying.” Monk Tongji clasped his hands together.

Old Zhao Han looked happy and happily said: “I also want to thank the Tongji master for help. If there is no Tongji master loaning the old man Sanguan money, how can he cure the stubborn diseases in the cheap.”

Tongji monk nodded and said: “This poor monk came here for this. At the beginning, Dacien Temple lent the money to the benefactor Hu and agreed to return it in January. Now three months have passed. When will the donor return it?”

Old Zhao Hanton’s face appeared embarrassed and said: “Please also Tongji master to allow some time. After the old man goes to work in Mohist Village, he will pay immediately if he has money. Go.”

The monk Tongji suddenly turned coldly and said: “It was originally arranged for a month to return, and now it has been three months. According to the original contract, if it does not arrive in one month, the interest will be doubled. It’s been three months, and you already need to repay 40 pennies even with the principal and interest! Do you have to allow a time limit?”

“40 penins! How is this possible?” Old Zhao Han is like a sunny day Pili generally looked at the Tongji monk. He couldn’t even think about the amount of 40 pens. He always thought that he only needed to pay back the three pens.

“How impossible, this is white and black, and your original handprint, you can still recognize it.” Monk Tongji took out a contract and placed it in front of Old Zhao Han.

“This…this…” Old Zhao couldn’t help but cast his help-seeking gaze to the side chief.

The chief clerk took a closer look at the contract, and sighed helplessly: “The black and white letters are clearly written, and the interest is also the market price. There is nothing wrong with it.”

“But back then, the master of Tongji didn’t have interest at all!” Old Zhao said with a flushed face. He could pay back the three quintessential money in the last year, but the 40 quintessence is a sky-high price. , How can he change it, let alone the interest that has been skyrocketing.

Heearing this, he blew his beard said while staring: according to what you said, Da Cien Temple will lend you money for free, and you dare to take advantage of the Buddhas advantage.

“But how can the old man pay for these 40 pens?” Old Zhao, who was originally a believer in Da Ci’en Temple, couldn’t help but shrink his head.

Looking at the walls of Old Zhao Hans family members, the chief clerk couldnt help but shook his head secretly, saying, It seems impossible to expect you to pay back the money. But your family still has more than ten acres of land, although its not worth 40. Guan, but the Tongji master looks at my face, so how about two cleanups?”

“Then I will give the Lizhanger a face.” The Tongji monk can’t squeeze anything out of Old Zhao. Oily, nodded and said.

“You can’t take our fields, that’s our lifeblood!” Upon hearing the news, Lady Zhao (Clan) rushed from the back room to plead, despite her frail body, the Zhao family’s ten acres They are all first-class fertile fields, but the most valuable wealth of the Zhao family, how can they be easily given to others.

“a debtor must pay his debt, it is only natural that you cannot pay the money you owe, so you should use the field to repay the debt.” Li Chang said coldly.

Old Zhao Han also woke up at this moment. He understood the plan of his middle chief and Tongji monk, and pointed at the two people tremblingly: “You have lost your conscience, don’t you be afraid of the government?”

Tongji monk coldly said: “How many of the officials of the Imperial court are boarding in my Da Ci’en Temple before being tested. With this level of incense, who do you think the government will help?”

“Besides, there are still black and white letters here? The evidence is as strong as a mountain, that is, if you have troubled Your Majesty, you are at a loss.” After some intimidation, the chief of the resident flew away with the Tongji monk.

Where did Lady Zhao (Clan) understand this? They couldn’t help staying there, as if they were lost in their souls. For farmers, land is the basis of their survival. If they lose land, they will have nothing.

In an instant, the joy of their improvement was wiped out, leaving only endless desolation.

2nd day, just after dawn, the door of the Old Zhao Han family was closed, and the silhouette was not seen late in the morning. The neighbors opened the door to visit and suddenly screamed.

“It’s dead!”

Immediately, the calm Zhaojiazhuang became a sensation. Some bold villagers entered the house. Only then did they discover that Lady (Clan) and Mrs. Zhao had committed suicide at the same time. Die.
