Chapter 1268 [Tea Zen Blindly] (1)
Official Zhang was secretly amused in his heart: "Where is Master Huikong?"
Sanbao said: "My master has returned to Taiwan. He is all about worshiping Buddha. All these mundane affairs have been handed over to me. I don't care about the project or the funds. I have a headache!"
When Zhang Yang heard every word of this guy, he couldn't live without the word "money" and smiled and said, "Did you invite me here to listen to your complaints?"
Sanbao grinned and said, "Secretary Zhang, please sit down quickly. I will ask someone to prepare a vegetarian meal."
Zhang Yang said: "I can't get used to it."
Sanbao said: "But we only have vegetarian food here."
Zhang Yang said: "Let me go back to Qiuye's house to eat fish."
The Three Treasures Monk was in a hurry to Amitabha Buddha, so good, and then said, "I'll invite you!"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "You don't eat meat!"
Sanbao said: "I will arrange for them to deliver vegetables. Let's go to the grove behind to eat. You eat meat, I eat vegetarian food."
Official Zhang laughed and followed Monk Sanbao to the woods behind the temple to sit. Not long after, Qiuye's family brought the prepared fish, and of course they also delivered several vegetarian dishes.
Sanbao knew that Zhang Yang liked to drink, so he specially brought a bottle of Kinmen sorghum wine.
Master Zhang did not expect that there was still a hidden wine in this temple. He smiled and said, "Three treasures, Three treasures, you monk is so free and easy, and you don't lack anything!"
Sanbao said: "Let's short of money!"
"Voluble, you are so vulgar!"
The monk Sanbao said, "Master, all the senior brothers and brothers are cultivating their minds. I can only ask about these worldly affairs. My Buddha said, "If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? These thankless things can only be borne by me. If the Buddha has a spirit, he will definitely feel my painstaking efforts."
Zhang Yang took a sip of wine and said, "Tell me, what troubles did you encounter?"
Sanbao sighed and said, "Secretary Zhang, don't you know that Mr. An has passed away?"
Official Zhang asked why he mentioned Andean Yuan’s incident and nodded, “I heard that I was going to attend his funeral. By the way, Andean Yuan seemed to have donated a lot of money to your Qiuxia Temple before his death. Three treasures, you should help him to save him more.” Zhang Yang knew in his heart that the financial difficulties facing the Three treasures must be related to Andean’s death.
Monk Sanbao said: "Mr. An promised to donate to Qiuxia Temple during his lifetime. He gave a few, but there was still a donation of about NT$100 million. Because of his death, there was a gap in our construction funds. This matter really made me helpless!"
Zhang Daguanren thought to himself that An Deyuan is dead, and the money is indeed gone.
Monk Sanbao said: "Secretary Zhang, do you know that the reconstruction of Qiuxia Ancient Temple was thanks to the leadership of your new city command. Thanks to the enthusiastic attention of all sectors of society and donated money. The project was successfully launched and is about to be completed. I didn't expect this to happen again."
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Ten 100 million is not 100 million US dollars, which is not a lot. As long as Master Huikong comes forward, the good men and women will not be allowed to donate generously. The abbot is not in a hurry. What are you, a young monk?"
Monk Sanbao sighed again and said, "Master rarely cares about these things and has always been handed over to me. Now this kind of thing suddenly happens, and I haven't told him yet." He lowered his voice and said, "I went to the Xincheng Command Center to report the situation two days ago. The comrades over there seemed very enthusiastic, but what they said to me was all about official words. How can you and Secretary Qin be here?"
Zhang Yang said: "No one's money has fallen from the sky. New city construction is also short of money. It is still very supportive of your reconstruction. Three treasures, you can't just contact the government when you encounter some trouble, right?"
Sanbao said: "I know this is the reason, but I really have no choice but to rebuild Qiuxia Ancient Temple. It is the wish of Master and so many Buddhist disciples. If the funds are really raised smoothly, the construction period will only be delayed."
Zhang Yang knew that Sanbao said this to him on purpose, and he smiled and said, "Since it was agreed by Andyon, although he was dead, he still had a son. You can find Andaven to solve this problem."
Sanbao said: "Didn't you hear something happened to Andaven?"
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "He has been wanted by the police and is currently unknown."
Sanbao sighed: "It is time to do bad things that we should spend more money to eliminate evil."
Master Zhang was amused by the words of Sanbao. He looked at the construction site in front of him, picked up the phone and called An Yuchen, and told him about the matter here. An Yuchen had arrived in Hong Kong at this time. After hearing Zhang Yang finished speaking, he immediately expressed his willingness to pay 30 million Hong Kong dollars to fulfill the promise instead of her uncle.
Sanbao never expected that this matter would become so simple in front of Zhang Yang. He was done with just one phone call. He was really surprised and happy, and he cut off two glasses of wine to express his gratitude to Zhang Yang.
After Zhang Yang finished drinking, Sanbao said again: "Secretary Zhang, in fact, Mr. Andeyuan was planning to invest in building a Buddha statue in Niushan, Binhai during his lifetime."
Zhang Daguan Ren was almost choked by a sip of wine. He finally swallowed the wine in his mouth. He breathed a sigh of relief and pointed at Monk Sanbao and said, "You really shouldn't be a monk. It's too insignificant not to do business or become an official."
Seeing Zhang Yang's reaction, Sanbao knew that he was not greedy at all, and he laughed and said, "I just said that, Secretary Zhang, don't forget to let him go."
Zhang Yang remembered the hidden ephedrine in the batch of wood donated by Qi Feng, and left the wine glass and said, "Qishan also donated a lot of money, right?"
Sanbao nodded and said, "Mr. Qi is also a good person! By the way, he came here specifically last month. He accompanied a friend to donate a Buddha statue."
Zhang Yang said disapprovingly: "Anyway, he has money, so it's not surprising that he donates a hundred Buddha statues."
The Three Treasures said: "That Buddha statue was donated by his friend, the Four-faced Buddha!"
Zhang Yang said: "Four-faced Buddha? Aren't it from Thailand?"
Sanbao said: "The craftsmanship is quite exquisite. The Buddha statue has been around for a long time. Secretary Zhang, if you are interested, I will take you to see it later."
The four-faced Buddha mentioned by the Three Treasures is now enshrined in the Return Hall. When Zhang Yang left, he took a look at him. The Buddha statue was not big, about one meter tall, and it was carved from Burmese jade. It has exquisite carvings, crystal clear and moist, and the treasure looks solemn.
The Three Jewels introduced to Zhang Yang: "The Four-faced Buddha is also called the Great Brahma King. It has four upright personalities, such as gentle nature, compassion, benevolence, fraternity, and justice. Buddhism also calls it the four Brahma Charms of Brahmin. It is also the four infinite minds of Buddhism, compassion, joy and giving, so it is willing to bring blessings and help all gods and sentient beings. This kind of compassionate spirit has been praised by the Buddha Shakyamuni. To be precise, in Buddhism, the Great Brahma belongs to God, not Buddha, but because of his compassionate spirit, it is respected by believers to be called the Four-faced Buddha. Because it cultivates blessings, supports wisdom, and achieves Bodhi practice from Brahma Charms, which is a convenient and skillful method to achieve Buddhahood."
Although Zhang Yang was not a devout Buddhist believer, he waved his hand in front of the four-faced Buddha and donated two hundred yuan in merit.
Monk Sanbao took out the merit book seriously and asked Zhang Yang to sign his name on it. There were only two signatures on the merit book, one was Qishan, and the one at the top was the donor of the Buddha statue, with the three words Liu Shengsheng written on it. Zhang Daguanren can be regarded as a master of calligraphy, and he also appreciated these three words. The person who wrote the inscription must have had considerable research on calligraphy.
Zhang Yang said to Monk Sanbao: "Is Liu Shengsheng a donor?"
Monk Sanbao nodded and said, "It's him."
Zhang Yang's heart moved, picked up the merit book and said to Sanbao: "I will take this merit book away first, and I will try to help you and motivate a few philanthropists and give more donations."
After Zhang Yang left Qiuxia Ancient Temple, he immediately called Lifu and asked her to investigate the information of Liu Qiansheng, and specifically emphasized that the word "word" is well written and he had already obtained his own title.
Liv gave Zhang Yang a number and asked him to copy the inscription and fax it.
It was already evening when Zhang Yang finished all this. He called Song Huaiming's house again. Liu Yuying was already at home. When he heard Zhang Yang's voice, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Zhang Yang, I'm just talking, why haven't you come to our house for so long?"
Zhang Yang thought to myself that I wanted to go, haven’t I detained this by the Commission for Discipline Inspection for so many days? Although he had some complaints in his heart, he did not dare to show anything in front of Liu Yuying. He smiled and said, “Aunt Liu, I have been busy with official business these two days, and I have done the same thing today. Is Uncle Song at home?”
Liu Yuying said: "He may have to come back later, Zhang Yang, come here to have dinner tonight." There was no displeasure in Liu Yuying's voice. Zhang Daren judged from this that he might not know about his recent storm, but this possibility seemed to be unlikely.
Zhang Yang said: "No, I promised my friend tonight, why don't I go there at 8 o'clock and I want to discuss something with Uncle Song in person."
Liu Yuying said, "Okay, I'll tell him when he comes back!"
The reason why Master Zhang did not agree to go to the Song family for dinner was that so many things happened and he never understood what the Song family was. Second, he heard what Liu Yuying meant that Song Huaiming might not have eaten at home tonight, so Zhang Yang decided to go there after dinner.
Zhang Yang came to the Song family at 8 o'clock on time. Song Huaiming still did not come back from get off work. Liu Yuying coaxed her son to bed early and was sitting in the living room watching TV. When she saw Zhang Yang coming in, she smiled and stood up and greeted, "Zhang Yang is here!"
Zhang Daren smiled and brought two boxes of tea, which was also a gift for Buddha by borrowing flowers. When he went to Qiuxia Temple today, the Three Treasures Monk gave it to him.
Liu Yuying said: "You kid, you have to bring gifts every time you come, and you are becoming more and more distant."
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "There are no good things. Because I am my own family, I didn't prepare anything deliberately. These two boxes of tea were given to me by the monks of Qiuxia Temple. It is not often said that Zen tea is just a slight scent. The tea brought from the Buddhist temple does not have the fireworks in the world. I will give it to you and Uncle Song to try it."
