Chapter 547 Giant Phoebe Pile

In fact, Xu Jingxing didn't know much about Taoism. On the contrary, he had dabbled in Taoist theories, especially the book "Tao Te Ching", and he was able to recite it fluently.

Taoism and Taoism are two different concepts. Taoism is a school of thought, with the idea of ​​quietness and inaction advocated by Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" as its purpose; Taoism is developed on the basis of Taoism. It is a religious school whose roots are related to Taoism, but its essence is religion.

For the existence of religion, the post-[-]s and post-[-]s in China seldom have a good impression of it. After all, they have received modern science education since they were young, and they don’t believe in gods and immortals at all. presence is very low.

However, in recent years, there has been a slight upward trend, especially with the advent of the Internet age, monks, priests, and lamas are also keeping up with the pace of the times. There are always some representative figures active on the Internet, which can be regarded as another kind of preaching The means, although more subtle.

Compared with other sects, Taoism gave him a good impression. Although there are many fake Taoists who cheat money and sex in society, the overall thinking of Taoism is in the same line as Taoism. It is a relatively detached and inclusive guiding ideology. And the style of acting really makes it difficult to feel bad.

However, he also understands the truth that "the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds". Taoism in general is indeed not bad, but it is difficult to say when it comes to individual Taoists.

So he neither respected nor sneered at the Taoist priests in the room, just treated them as ordinary people.

In fact, these Taoist priests are indeed ordinary people. They have neither profound spells nor extraordinary abilities, and they don't even have much practical skills in the "Five Taoist Arts". She doesn't know how to punch or kick, at most she has mastered a few Taoist rituals.

Of course, there are also some Taoist priests who have a complete inheritance of medicine and martial arts. They have also made a lot of money opening martial arts gyms in recent years, which is much better than those who exorcise ghosts and invite gods to watch Fengshui.

Therefore, after entering the door, he nodded to the two groups of competitors, and then asked several Taoist priests, "Which one is Master Xuanyang?"

A Taoist priest who was sitting on the sofa stood up quickly, "Poverty Taoist Xuanyang, I have met Master Xu Jingxing, please sit down." Wearing an old-fashioned blue cloth shirt, but judging from his face, he doesn't look like a person over 30 years old.

Could it be that the host of this operation is this young mage no older than 30 years old?

Suspicious in his heart, but quite calm on his face, facing Xuan Yang's title of "Master", he didn't explain anything, let alone being humble, who would play modesty in this kind of situation?They are all here to make money, and the purpose is to be so naked, there is no need for such things as modesty.And if you want to earn this money, besides your own strength, fame is also a factor to consider. Being humble in this kind of situation is actually weakening your own momentum.

He was originally a young man, and he came here alone, if he kept being modest and polite in the face of Xuanyang Taoist's praise, it would be even more underestimated.

On the contrary, he accepted the title of "Master" in such a careless manner, although it was inevitable that he would be slandered, but he did not lose his momentum, especially since the title of "Master" was not proposed by him himself, but by Gu Xuan, the patron this time. Master Yang raised it, even if other people are not used to it, they dare not make irresponsible remarks unless they don't want to take the job.

So he bowed his hands politely, "Xu Jingxing has met Master Xuanyang," and then asked, "Master Xuanyang, has the interview started yet? So I'm late?"

Xuan Yang smiled and shook his head, "The benefactors have just arrived, and I didn't expect them to be so tacit, I just hope that no matter which benefactor is elected later, the other two will not cause unknown fire, after all, this matter There will always be two losers."

The people in the room quickly nodded and said yes, and Xu Jingxing was no exception, because he had a certain advantage in this competition, and if he competed in a well-regulated manner, his probability of winning was very high, and there was no need for any small tricks at all. On the contrary, if the other two groups don't come up with something new, they may miss the job.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Taoist Xuanyang said loudly: "The poor Taoists have read the drafts of several benefactors, and to be honest, they are not very satisfied. I haven’t seen the giant mahogany stump yet, so I can’t make a drawing according to its aptitude, so I invite you here this time, just to take a few of you to the site to have a look, and to redo a design based on our requirements.”

Taoist Xuanyang glanced slowly over the three groups of people after finishing speaking, and nodded when no one spoke, "Since the benefactors have no objections, let's go, fortunately it's not far away, just behind the hotel In the lobby on the first floor of Dacheng Mall, please take a few steps."

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the room stood up, and the three groups walked out in a clear line, ignoring each other, and some of them didn't have a good look at these Taoist priests. I guess if it weren't for these Taoist priests who paid the money, They didn't bother to look.

Xu Jingxing was two steps behind, walking side by side with Taoist Xuanyang, and asked with a smile, "Master Xuanyang, what is the material of the mahogany?"

"It's made of nanmu, but it's not the real material, but a huge nanmu tree stump, half of the wood and half of the root, which is extremely difficult to carve," Taoist Xuanyang replied with a smile.

"What about the size?"

"The total length is 6.8 meters, the diameter is 3.2 meters, and the total weight is 10.8 tons," Taoist Xuanyang said lightly such a series of numbers.

Hearing this string of numbers, he was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief: "So big?"

"That's right, why don't you say it's a giant ornament?" Taoist Xuanyang sized him up with a wicked expression, "Master Xu won't be scared and lose confidence, right?"

He smiled wryly, "Master Xuanyang, this is too big. Although I can do it, if I really want to do it, it will take three to five months. This is me. If I change to other woodcarvers, it will probably cost me a lot of money." The time will be more than a year, and this doesn't seem to match the rewards you have announced."

"Oh? What is the amount of reward Master Xu heard?"

"Three and half million," he shrugged. "If it's a little smaller, the price is okay, but the workload is so heavy and the work is so difficult, it's about double the price on the basis of this price."
