Chapter 564 Knowing that things are not that simple

In a blink of an eye, three days later, it was the day when all the dandies gathered together, and everyone came together.

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Muyun spoke first: "Brothers, the day to get rich is coming, I wonder if you are ready?"

"Muyun, my old Cheng doesn't read many books. Don't lie to me. I've asked almost everyone these days, and I haven't heard of anyone who can make a fortune selling books!" Cheng Chumo said vaguely with a piece of snack in his mouth As he said that, he looked afraid that he came out without eating in the morning.

Li Muyun chuckled: "There is no evidence for what you say, I will take you to a place, and after you have seen it, you will know whether it is true or not."

Ever since Li Muyun started playing tricks three days ago, it has made everyone feel itchy. Seeing him let go now, the dude immediately yelled to leave immediately, full of gangster anger.

Not much to say, after half an hour, Li Muyun led the crowd to a place beside the Bahe River, looking at the empty space, everyone was speechless.

Yuchi Baoqi poked Li Muyun: "What's the matter? Muyun, what on earth did you ask me to come and see? Could it be blowing cold wind?"

Li Muyun was also confused, looked around for a long time, scratched his head and said: "No, there should be a workshop here, there should be a hundred large tanks in front, and there should be more than a hundred workers. Where did everything go!"

"Hey, maybe it will be taken away by the Dragon King!" Cheng Chumo laughed strangely, as if he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

Naturally, Li Muyun didn't take his words to heart, rolled his eyes and turned his head to ask the three fat guys who were blindfolded: "Fatty, where are you?"

"I'll go find it, donkey day, I've already arranged it the day before yesterday, why haven't we started work yet?" The three fat man cursed angrily, and led two 'thugs' along the road with his horse's head Run to the village not far away.

After a while, the third fat man came back, and with him was a middle-aged man in his forties.

The middle-aged man had a bitter look on his face, and he cowered in front of the crowd. Before he could speak, Li Muyun had already come to him: "Are you the Lizheng of this village?"

Lizheng, no grade and no grade.In the Tang Dynasty, the four households were neighbors, the five neighbors were the protection, and the five guarantees were the neighborhood, and the neighborhood was set up.Its main responsibility is to take charge of household registration and taxes. To put it simply, it is to check the household registration to see if there are any wanted criminals in the area under its jurisdiction.

The village director at this time, oh no, Li Zheng, was frightened to death by this group of well-dressed dandies. The biggest official he has ever met in his life is a county government arrester. He was a little at a loss when a first-rank county king came out, and he stuttered for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.

In the end, the third fat man really couldn't stand it anymore, so he pushed him from behind: "What are you afraid of him doing, he didn't have two hangs, just say what you have to say."

Are you speaking human words? Li Muyun glared at the third fat man angrily, and all the dudes laughed loudly.

At this moment, the fat man remembered that he was no longer in Shuozhou. What he said just now in front of so many people was really inappropriate. He probably would have to be beaten again when he went back.

Li Zheng became more and more nervous at this time, opened his mouth and closed it several times, and finally said with a flat stomach: "Jun, Junwang, no, I am not a villain, I don't do things, it is, it is this place, yes, yes There is a master."

"An owner? Who is it?" Li Muyun frowned.

Ordinarily this piece of land has already been sealed to him by Li Er, he is the biggest owner of this piece of land, but Li Zheng actually said that this piece of land already has an owner, what the hell is going on?

The head of the village obviously saw that Li Muyun was a little unhappy, so he quickly replied: "Yes, Xuandu watched it. A few years ago, people in the village donated the land to them."

Xuandu Temple, the largest Taoist temple in Chang'an City, has many believers, and the owner of the temple is also Li Er's guest.

After Li Muyun knew that this place belonged to Xuandu Temple, although he was not very happy, he didn't want to be troublesome, so he simply decided to change to another place.

As a result, when he asked again, he found that the land on the Bahe River basically belonged to the Xuandu Temple, and occasionally some did not belong to the Xuandu Temple, but belonged to other Taoist temples or temples.

Now Li Muyun understood why Li Er gave him such a large area at the foot of Lishan Mountain as a fief so easily, and this land is a hot potato.

Everyone knows that temples and Taoist temples are places where monks stay, so they don't need to pay taxes. In other words, even though this is Li Muyun's fief, in fact he can't collect a penny.

Not only that, but what he said here is not very powerful, because those lands belong to temples and Taoist temples. Although the people are farming, it is tantamount to farming for temples and Taoist temples. The grain produced belongs to them Yes, as long as they receive a little less than the government, the people will naturally be happy to give them all the land.

After figuring this out, Li Muyun had no choice but to express his admiration to the emperor in the palace for finding such a headache for him to deal with, and he couldn't tell what was wrong with the emperor.

"Muyun, forget it, there's no need to compete with those bull-nosed ones, let's go back!" Chai Lingwu persuaded.

None of the people present were fools, and they all knew that Taoism and Buddhism are not something ordinary people can provoke, not because they are powerful, but because they have many believers, carrying them with them is almost equivalent to carrying all their believers, even if No matter how powerful you are, you have to consider the consequences.

Li Muyun licked his slightly dry lips, turned around and cupped his fists at the group of dudes: "I'm sorry, brothers, let everyone run away with me."

What can the dandies say, no one wants to see this kind of thing, they all stepped forward to comfort him, and finally everyone turned around.

When they got back to Li Muyun's manor, none of the people had any interest in joining in the fun, and left one after another. Only Cheng Chumo and others stayed behind.

After all, they had been friends for a while, so it was normal for them to get closer.

Seeing that Li Muyun was frowning all the time, Chai Lingwu knew that he was unwilling, so he said to him: "Muyun, let's give up for now, the matter with Taoism and Buddhism can only be discussed in the long run."

"1 years is too long, seize the day." Sitting in the living room, Li Muyun murmured while looking at the slightly bleak courtyard outside.

"Hey, what Mu Yun said is good, my old Cheng loves to listen to it." Cheng Chumo took up the conversation carelessly from the sidelines: "My old Cheng has long been displeased with those Taoist monks. If everyone believes in them, who will go to war and recite scriptures every day, will the world really be at peace?"
