Liao Zhai Zi is silent

Chapter 77 Expansion of Dojo
On the second day, the elders of the village, the security chief, came to the door, smoking his own heavy tobacco leaves, and puffing.

"Master Lin, did you dream about anything last night?"

"Haha, does it mean that the land at the entrance of the village wants to be relocated to our Longevity Palace?" Lin Zhuoming said directly, "He told us last night that there is such a thing."

The security chief almost didn't take a puff of cigarette, choking his throat: "Do you want to be particular about it?"

Lin Zhuming thought about it: "There's nothing particular about it, you just burn incense, invite out the statues, and then tear down the original temple."

Then he pointed to a piece of land in front of the Longevity Palace: "Just move here."

"But the land master said last night that he hopes to have a bigger place to live."

"Why do you need such a big temple for a piece of land?"

Lin Zhuming thought about it for a while, and then thought, it would be better if the temple is bigger, and it would be better if they put memorial tablets for Liu Ding Liujia, and they might as well build two more side halls. It is not very convenient to have such a small room now.

Immediately said: "Then repair and repair, and build a house on the left and right."

After all, he made a divination in front of the statue of Zhenjun, and Zhenjun agreed.

Let Zhao Zhongxin open the merit box and take out the money inside, plus some money left over from his previous practice.

Zhao Zhongxin's eyes were straightened: "Really building a house?"

"Then why not?" Lin Zhuoming said, "Don't wait for your master to come back to build?" Lin Zhuoming felt that the "incense" in the temple would become more and more prosperous sooner or later, so it was just right to build two more rooms.

"No, I think, we'd better save the money."

"Silver can't be produced if you save it." After saying that, he took ten taels to the security chief: "The stonemasons and bricklayers in the village, please tell the security chief some good words."

"Don't delay the busy farming. If you have extra strength, come and help with the building. We also pay wages, but it's not easy to pack meals, and they may need to bring them from home."

The Baochang looked at the ten taels of silver and said, "What an embarrassment, the relocation of the Earth Temple is something everyone should do, and it is not easy to collect money." He put the silver in his trouser belt.

But Mimi smiled at last: "Master Lin, it's just to build two houses. In our village, whoever gets a wife and whoever builds a house, they all come to help spontaneously. I don't need money, but I just contribute some materials. "

Lin Zhuming is unwilling to save money in this area: "How can I make people work for nothing?"

The Baochang just refused to refuse, and soon went to the village to gather people.

First, I went to the ancestral hall to hold a meeting to study how to demolish the land temple. There is no need to talk about this matter. More than one person in the village was entrusted with a dream, but there were still villagers who raised objections to the matter of building two houses in the Longevity Palace.

One is who owns the occupied land, and whether there is any compensation, and the other is that the people who live behind the temple do not agree very much, saying: rather live in front of the temple than behind the temple.

However, the Baochang also took money to do the work: "The land was originally a wasteland, but it was later sold to a Taoist to build a temple. There is nothing to say about it."

"As for those who live behind or at the end of the temple, it is even more unreasonable. Master Lin led us to build a canal, otherwise we will fight with others for water, and the land will die of drought."

After that, I invited several elders of the village to speak.

Although it is only a village, it is also like a small imperial court, full of intrigues and internal organs. To do something, the majority of people must agree, otherwise the energy will not be used in one place.

After Baochang suppressed his objections and decided to build two more houses for the Longevity Palace, he said that there was wages, and the rest of the dissatisfaction disappeared.

Then the security guard made two more jugs of wine, hung one into the water, went to the house behind the temple, and took out two taels of silver: "No one else has this money, so don't make it public. I know you feel uncomfortable. But suffering is a blessing, besides Master Lin is a good person, how could it really make you feel bad?"

He took the offal and fried a snack with wine, and with two taels of silver as a catalyst, the chief security officer also subdued the last bit of disobedience.

It can be seen that Lin Zhuming's spending of money is counterpoint, and people take your money to do your business.

If the security chief is not given the money, there will be many troubles.

This matter was decided in the morning, and construction started in the afternoon. Lin Zhuoming asked Zhao Zhongxin to invite the god out of the temple, but he did not go in person.

That land really made Lin Zhuming laugh last night, so naturally he doesn't give him a good face now.

In addition, it is also to exercise Zhao Zhongxin's ability to stand alone.

The statue of the land god was temporarily placed in a corner of the Longevity Palace, and the villagers built a shed.

The original small temple was directly demolished, the bricks were bricks, and the tiles were tiles, one piece was not bad, and it was built on one side, so that when the house was rebuilt, it could continue to be used.

Not only that, but some treasures were also dug out. It turned out that a jar of copper coins was buried in the foundation of the Earth Temple. These copper coins are quite old.

The villagers did not dare to move, so they came to invite Lin Zhuming again.

Lin Zhuming came to the scene to have a look: "These coins are of good quality, count and count the number, after consecration, they can be used as blessing money, and can be used for doing things during the Dragon Boat Festival."

A copper coin tied with a red thread or five-color silk thread is tied to the child's hand, which is blessing money.

"Can't it be used now?" Zhao Zhongxin asked.

"It has just been unearthed, and it may contain Yin Qi. It needs to be enshrined and worshiped to wash away the Yin Qi on it."

There are twelve copper coins in total, filling a jar. The villagers wanted to smash the jar, but Lin Zhuming stopped him: "This jar is a cornucopia, and these copper coins are treasures. The treasures can be taken out, but the jar cannot be smashed."

Those villagers are especially a little unwilling, and always feel that it is best to divide now.

After counting, even the pot with the money was placed in front of the statue of Zhenjun to worship.

Then came the censer, four town bricks, each with carvings, obviously carved bricks from Suzhou, with blue dragons, white tigers, and rosebirds on them. Generally speaking, only rich families and tombs would use this kind of carved bricks.

It is also a first-class magic weapon, Fengshui magic weapon, and town object.

The villagers felt that there must be treasures below, so they dug three feet more, but there were only some rotten grains, which had been carbonized.

As for the Longevity Palace breaking ground, Lin Zhuming was much more solemn. He first worshiped Tiangong, then the Emperor of the Earth, and then the real emperor.

Finally, the ground was broken, the piles were driven, and the foundation was made.

Nothing happened.

It's just that it's a big project after all. Although there are many people working on it, the two houses don't last ten days and half a month, so I'm afraid they can't be built well.

At night, Ren Tudou reappeared, and wanted to talk to Lin Zhuoming to build his Tudou temple in a more dignified way.

"From now on, we will be a family, and my incense will also belong to this place. From now on, when the villagers ask questions, I can also be effective." Ren Tui ignored the lesson he had received yesterday, showing his cheekiness.
