Mohist Tang

Mo Dun unexpectedly looked at the determined Grandmaster Huiyuan, and nodded: “The Buddhist school made a wise choice. The reason why the Hundred Schools of Thought can be passed down for thousands of years, except In addition to our doctrine, that is our self-discipline and rationality. Nowadays, Medical School of Thought has a number of medical practitioners working together to form a hospital to solve the shortcomings of the doctors shortage. Daoist School has divided the External Alchemy faction, and its theory is No Flaws, Mohist Family abandons political ideas and specializes in Mohist Technology. In contrast, this sacrifice made by the Buddhists is not a big deal?”

Mo Dun said it was unceremonious, but the monks couldnt refute it. Yes, all schools are now seeking development. Compared with the decisiveness of Hundred Schools of Thought, Buddhism is indeed a little confused about the situation.

The most criticized part of Buddhism is that it does not produce. If the number of Buddhism can be limited and controlled within the range that the Imperial Court can bear, then the Buddhism will have no shortcomings. Really carry forward.

“Apart from this, there is still a shortcoming in the Buddhist school that needs to be resolved to ensure worry-free!” Mo Dun said again.

“Please also Mo donor for advice!” Grandmaster Huiyuan seriously said, at this moment he no longer despise Mo Dun the slightest.

“Terada!” Mo Dun said word by word.

“Teada!” The monks looked at each other in blank dismay. They thought that Mo Dun would talk about the gilding of Buddha statues, but they did not expect to mention Terada.

Mo Dun said loudly: “At the time of the Martial Emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the world was struggling and the people lived in misery. However, some savvy people found that there was a way to avoid the heavy labor and land rent.”

The faces of the monks suddenly became unnatural. They naturally knew that this method was to become a monk, because the monks could be exempted from labor and land rent, and the Buddhists used this method to rapidly expand, and the number of monks and nuns suddenly reached 3,000,000. , And finally attracted a crazy counterattack from Bei Zhou.

“The people are suffering, how can Buddhism not save it!” Huichang master said in awe.

“Yes, you have become the saviors of the people. The people only need to meditate and recite the Buddha, and they dont need to perform corvee, dont need to pay the land rent. The Buddhist family can easily get a lot of temple fields, and the Imperial Where is the Court? There is no soldier in the war, no silver in the payment, and the nest is covered, and the eggs are laid down. Once the world is in chaos, how can the Buddhists take care of themselves? How many golden Buddhas were scraped and bronze statues robbed in troubled times , The Buddhist temple was destroyed. Mo Dun said.

“Buddha says: I don’t go to hell and whoever goes to hell, this is the Buddha’s tribulation.” Grandmaster Huiyuan said with a sad expression.

“One catastrophe and two catastrophes are not enough. Do you want to do it again for the third time? Nowadays, many temples are going back to the old path, accepting the believers fields, and even allowing the people to hang their fields under the temple fields. , And many temples give usury to the people. Whenever the people cant afford it, they can only use the land to pay off.”

Mo Dun sneered, his eyes swept across the faces of the monks, no The young monk lowered his head involuntarily. They naturally knew the situation of their temple, and they couldn’t help lowering their heads with a guilty conscience.

“As far as I know, Buddhism is not short of money, not to mention that Terada under the name of Er et al. is the incense money that ordinary believers enshrine. Greed is not enough. The brother of Mohist Family Son under the name of Mo Dun is constantly collecting information for Mohist Periodical. Mo Dun can be said to know the situation of Buddhism well.

Master Huichang said with a look of Hao Ran: “Although I am waiting to gather money, it is not for selfish desires, but for the future revival of the Buddhist school and serving the Buddha.”

Other monks are not nodded and revive. Buddhism is the belief of a group of eminent monks. However, the construction of temples to cast Buddha statues and gilded bodies does not cost a lot of money. The monks are vegetarian and normally cost little. Most of the temples money is used in these places.

“It is the Buddhist school who chose such a wrong path, that is why the two forces will destroy the Buddha.” Mo Dun affirmed.

“Wrong way, does it allow you to earn countless money from the Mohist Family, but does not allow the Buddhists to collect money and build temples.” Bianji couldn’t help retorting again.

The monks cant help but be nodded. Everyone knows that Mohist Family Mohist Technology is unique in the world. Every Mohist Technology reality will bring huge benefits to the Mohist Family. In Mohist Village World’s First, every village has a family. Even the Buddhists have heard it for a long time, but when they heard that the Mohist Family Son only allowed the Mohist Family to set fire and the people were not allowed to light the lamp, the monks couldn’t help but feel unhappy.

Mo Dun took a cold look at Bianji and retorted: “Mohist Family Son earns all the money from the hard work of Mohist Family Son. Every article is innocent, and it has emerged as early as Mohist Family. At that time, A certain Mohist had already foreseen todays situation, had already given up the privilege of tax exemption, and paid tens of thousands of taxes for the Imperial Court every year, which also blocked everyones leisurely mouth. What about Buddhism?”

Mohist Family Mohist Technology is useful for the country and the people, and it contributes a huge amount of taxes to the Imperial Court. Not only does the Buddhism do not produce, but it also has the privilege of tax exemption. Crazy digging the corners of the Imperial Court, turning the originally tax-paid tax fields into the tax-free temple fields of the temple, causing the Imperial Court to suffer a huge loss. In such a contrast, the verdict was decided, and the last fig leaf of the Buddhist family was completely lifted.

The monks were silent, but no one was willing to give up the benefits they obtained.

“Then the opinion of the Imperial Court? My Buddhist family should not own the temple field?” Grandmaster Huiyuan frowns saying.

Mo Dun shook his head and said: “It’s not that you can’t own Terada, but you can’t annex land with tax-free privileges. If land tax is the foundation of the country, if the State Treasury is empty, the Imperial Court will naturally look for the reason. , When the time comes ______

Mo Dun did not finish speaking, but the monks knew it well, when the time comes, the Imperial Court would naturally move towards with a large number of temples, very rich Of the Buddhist school. This is probably the time when the third Buddhist catastrophe comes.

“Please also Mo donor for advice.” Grandmaster Huiyuan solemnly saluted Mo Dun.

Mo Dun said unceremoniously: “There are two more methods, it depends on how the Buddhists choose. First, the taxation stipulates the number of tax-free temple fields for each monk.”

The expressions of the monks were relieved. If every monk was given tax exemption from temple fields, it would not be unacceptable.

“From the perspective of Lao Na, one monk can have fifty acres of tax-free temple fields under his name!” Huichang master said loudly.

Other monks also nodded and agreed with this proposal.

Mo Dun cannot deny nodded, he turned to Zu Mingjun and asked: “What is the tax rate of my court tax?”

“Fifteen taxes and one tax.” Zu Mingjun without. the slightest hesitation’s replied.

“Now my Great Tang has benefited from the promotion of the Mohist Family trial field. The yield per mu has reached four patal. How much is 15 tax per mu?” Mo Dun was puzzled.

“Three 15 jin or so!” Zu Mingjun replied.

“putting it that way the land tax on fifty acres of land is…………”

“One thousand seven hundred and twenty-five jin.”

Mo Dun suddenly realized that he looked at Huichang master with an unbelievable look: “The youngster didn’t expect a monk to have such a big appetite, and he could eat 1,720,15 jin of grain a year.”

In an instant, the Huichang master’s face flushed. He could hear Mo Dun secretly mocking the Buddhist appetite. After Shen Hongcai’s calculation of one catty per person, one person only consumes three-four hundred catties a year, while Zu Mingjun’s The cold numbers made his greed immediately exposed.

“Each monk is tax-free 20 mu! It can’t be less. In addition to eating, the Buddhist school needs other expenses, and the Buddhist school has to develop.” Master Falin resolutely said.

The other monks couldn’t help showing unwilling expressions on their faces. Twenty acres did not satisfy them. However, Falin was the Dharma protector, with a respected status, so everyone could not say anything?

Mo Dun laughed irresponsibly, turned his head and looked towards Grandmaster Huiyuan beside him and asked: “What about the master’s opinion?”

After Grandmaster Huiyuan closed his eyes for a moment, he suddenly opened With a firm eye, he said: “The Buddhists give up the tax exemption privilege! Don’t even have the tax exemption privilege of one mu.”

“What?” Almost all the monks looked at Grandmaster Huiyuan in amazement, wondering. The Buddhist temple in the world depends on the scale of the temple field. Shaolin Temple is the largest in the world. Not only does Shaolin have a long history, but also after the Shaolin stick monk rescued Li Shimin, Li Shimin also rewarded Shaolin’s rich temple fields, adding nearly 10,000 acres. , If all the land tax is paid, it is not a small amount.

“100 mu of tax exemption is wrong to the world, and one mu of tax exemption is also wrong. In that case, why should my Buddhist family bear this fault, and if it is true, it is better to give up tax exemption to preserve I have a good reputation in Buddhism,” Grandmaster Huiyuan explained.

Todays goal is to solve the hidden dangers of Buddhism. Since the duty-free temple field is one of the sources of Buddhism’s robbery, instead of twisting, it is better to have long-term pain than short-term pain, and solve this hidden danger at once. In this way, it can also prevent the people from hanging up their fields in temples to avoid land tax.

Mo Dun looked at Grandmaster Huiyuan in surprise, and sincerely admired: “Master is wise, A certain Mohist admires.”

Shaolin Temple has nearly 10,000 acres of temple fields, all of them gave up The tax exemption for a year is a loss, not a small amount.

Grandmaster Huiyuan shook his head and sighed: “Unfortunately, there is no person like the Mo donor in my Buddhist school, otherwise he would not suffer twice in a row.”

The reason why he decided to give up The biggest inspiration for Teradas tax exemption comes from the Mohist Familys waiver of tax-free privileges. Like Buddhists, the Mohist Family seems to have tax-free privileges to get huge benefits in a short period of time. However, it gives people the handle to be attacked. With loopholes and shortcomings, it’s like an egg has broken a hole, it will only become more and more broken.

Mo Dun looked at the reluctant faces of many Buddhist monks, and now knowingly said with a smile: “In the close relationship of the Mohist Family, Saint Mozi has a story, please Everyone appreciate it.”

“I wait to listen to Saint Mozi’s teachings!” Grandmaster Huiyuan respectfully said.

Saint Mozi once traveled to Chu State and stayed at a shepherds house. In the early morning of 2nd day, the shepherd found a sheep missing from the sheepfold. After careful investigation, the sheepfold was broken. A hole, the wolf came in at night and took away one of the sheep. Saint Mozi persuaded him: “Hurry up and fix the sheepfold and plug the hole! “The man refused to accept the advice, and said stubbornly: “The sheep has been lost, so why do you repair the sheep pen?” “

As a result, on the morning of the 2nd day, the shepherd found another sheep missing. He regretted not listening to Saint Mozi’s words. He quickly plugged the hole, repaired the sheepfold, and never lost sheep again.

This matter was widely circulated in Chu State. During the Warring States Period, Chu State Doctor Zhuang Xin advised King Chu Xiang to see rabbits and care for dogs. It is not too late; it is not too late to make up for the dead sheep.”

“Remedy!” Grandmaster Huiyuan was shocked, his eyes flashed lightly, and he blurted out.

“Yes, the Buddhist school has lost sheep twice now, don’t you want to fix the sheep pen?” Mo Dun said in a deafening voice.

A group of high monks were silent as death. The original dissatisfaction suddenly disappeared. Mohist Family and Daoist School abandoned some of their ideas and reached Perfection in their own doctrine, even if they just lost a sheep. Fix the sheepfold.

But the Buddhist school was robbed twice in a row, but it still persists in your own wrong doings. In contrast, its too stupid. In fact, the Buddhist school is more than persist in your own wrong doings. It was not until the three martial arts and one sect that he was plundered four times in a row. After the Song Dynasty, the Buddhism slowly reflected on it.

“Amitabha, it is safe to do so, but I am afraid it will be difficult to develop my Buddhist school!” Master Falin said with emotion.

Mo Dun retorted: “The Master Luo who cheated on the streets of Ch_ng’n a few days ago, although his purpose is not pure, but he is actually an ascetic monk in India. In this regard, the Buddhists are probably too different. Far away!”

The life of an ascetic monk in India is extremely difficult, and he dedicated his life to the Buddha. In contrast, the life of the Buddhist school of Great Tang is simply Western Bliss world.

A group of high monks couldn’t help but Hao Ran.

Grandmaster Huiyuan said loudly: “It is so decided that even if it is to give up the tax exemption from Terada, Terada will still have a lot of surplus grain, plus the incense money from the believers. If it is really unsustainable, my monks will pay I can go out for alms, maybe there will be difficulties, but it’s just a test the Buddha gave me.”

The monks were silent. If they lose their privileges, they can certainly survive, but I am afraid they will never be the same again. Moisturized.

“My Buddhism can accept this condition, but the Buddhism still has a question. Ask the Mo donor for advice.” Falin master seriously said.

Mo Dun said resolutely: “Master Falin, please speak!”

“Fu Yi and the others have been attacking Buddhism. In addition to the above reasons, There is also a reason to believe that Buddhism is Hujiao and believes in the alien Spiritual God. If this deadlock is not resolved, even if the Buddhism achieves the above two points, I am afraid it will be difficult to join the Hundred Schools of Thought.” Master Falin said griefly.

The scale and influence of Buddhism have been comparable to those of Hundred Schools of Thought, but it has been excluded from mainstream thought. This makes Buddhism quite wronged.

Mo Dun suddenly pondered that if the grievances of the Buddhism cannot be resolved, I am afraid that he will return today without success. At the moment, the inspiration appeared: “You can know the origin of Yuwen, Murong, Nangong, Huyan… “

“Who does not know this, this is the five turbulent Chinese period, the northern foreigners left behind the surname Lady (Clan).” Bianji proudly said.

Mo Dun nodded and said: “Youre right. These surnames Lady (Clan) were indeed introduced to the Central Plains at that time.”

Bianji couldnt help showing a triumphant smile, but After waiting for him to be proud, he heard Mo Dun ask back: “However, these surnames Lady (Clan) were called foreigners 300 years ago, and now which one of these surnames Lady (Clan) is called Foreigners, and Buddhism has been introduced to Great Tang for six hundred years, and it is still called Hujiao. Dont the Buddhism still know the reason?”

The smile on Bianji’s face suddenly solidified, others The monk is not surprised.

“Chinese!” Master Falin paused.

The reason why these foreigners surnamed Lady (Clan) is accustomed to Great Tang, because they speak Chinese, wear Chinese clothes, and write Chinese. Except for the surname Lady (Clan) with one more word, all other customs and The Han people are no different, but this is not the case in Buddhism. No matter which one is different from the world, this is the reason why they are called Hujiao.
