Chapter 291 Fumi
Because of the school, the children in the village would clean the mountain temple when they were on duty.
Of course, they were cleaning the square outside the temple.
But this is enough, so that no matter when people from outside the village come to worship the mountain temple, it will always be clean and look like it is very popular.
As a result, the mountain temple also had a fixed number of believers.
Miaozhen and Miaohe also missed their friends very much, so the next day they went down the mountain under the pretext of accompanying their junior master uncle to sit in the mountain temple. They had fun with their friends for the whole day and even sneaked into the school to attend half a day's class.
Pan Yun divided the five hundred taels of silver he brought back and put one hundred taels into the public account of the mountain temple as normal expenses for the school.
She wanted to use the remaining four hundred taels to do good deeds in the name of the mountain god. This was what she had promised to give to her master at the beginning.
The more believers and the more power of will the mountain god has, the more powerful he will be and the better he can protect and bless them.
Pan Yun naturally knew that her master had secretly helped her overcome the tribulation that night. The spiritual energy in the mountain came so quickly and the earth favored her so much that even when she fell off the cliff, the bottom of the Sanqing Valley, which was famous for its granite, was covered with a thick layer of soft soil...
This is about the same probability as her winning a 100 million lottery jackpot, and her luck has always been bad, so it's obvious that she cheated.
The master is so good to her, and the New Year is coming soon, so she must give the master something good to eat.
So after Pan Yun finished writing the martial arts secrets, he took out a large piece of paper and said, "Big Brother, let's hold a temple fair before the New Year."
Wang Feiyin: "What's the purpose?"
"Collect everyone's wishes, pick out those that can be fulfilled, give them a hand, and accumulate merit for Master."
Wang Feiyin: "This is not easy, it costs money!"
Pan Yun bid a silver note for four hundred taels.
Wang Feiyin looked down and said, "It's OK, although it's a little too little."
Pan Jun smiled and said, "We'll need Senior Brother and Third Brother to take more care of us."
What people seek are nothing more than peace, health, future and marriage. Everything in the world can be summarized in these four things.
Pan Yun immediately took the money and went to the county town to prepare for the temple fair.
Of course, four hundred taels alone are not enough. After all, after the temple fair is over, she still has to fulfill her wish of collecting the money.
She went straight to find Mr. Qian.
The doorman of Master Qian's house was still sitting on the doorstep, basking in the sun and dozing off. When he staggered, he saw Pan Yun and rubbed his eyes in surprise. "Oh, it's the young Taoist priest. Are you back from studying?"
Pan Yun nodded, "I'm back for the New Year. Is Mr. Qian home?"
"Yes, yes, little Taoist priest, please come in." The doorman did not even report to them. He simply opened the door and invited Pan Yun and the other two in, then ran to report to Master Qian.
Master Qian came out laughing to greet Pan Jun, "My benefactor, you are back from your studies... well, you have grown taller."
Knowing that Pan Yun was going to hold a temple fair and came to the county town to prepare rice for the festival, Mr. Qian waved his hand and said, "Your benefactor is doing good deeds for the mountain temple, so I have to support you."
He immediately asked someone to seal fifty taels of silver for Pan Yun, saying, "I will not fight with you for the rice. Use this money to buy some medicinal herbs. I know that you have to distribute medicine at every temple fair at Sanqing Temple."
Pan Yun immediately thanked him, "I will light a big oil lamp for Master Qian in front of Master's statue when the time comes."
Master Qian narrowed his eyes in a smile and said to Pan Yun, "The talisman of your benefactor is very effective. Last year and this year, the Tian family was struck by several thunderbolts. My unpromising niece is now living a much better life."
Pan Jun's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Is it Sun Hui Niang? Has she used up all her thunder talismans? Do you want to ask for two more?"
Mr. Qian nodded repeatedly, "That's exactly what I wanted to ask you for two more thunder talismans, oh, and two more peace talismans."
Pan Yun agreed immediately. Although her cultivation had improved and the talismans she made were better, she still charged Master Qian the original price, which was still twenty taels per piece.
Mr. Qian asked someone to fetch a hundred taels of silver, "My benefactor, do you have the Wenquxing Talisman?"
Pan Yun asked: "Do you have children who need to take exams?"
Mr. Qian said, "Wuyi is studying at my house and will take the examination for the title of scholar next year, so I would like to ask for a Wenquxing Talisman."
Pan Yun: "That is the Wenchang Talisman. This talisman can indeed enhance a person's literary fortune and bless him to have a smooth exam day. However, Master Qian, this talisman is the same as the peace talisman. It blesses a person to maximize his talents. Whether he can pass the exam or not depends on his upper limit."
Mr. Qian nodded repeatedly, "I understand, I understand, I understand everything. Even if I fail the exam, I will not blame my benefactor for not using the talisman."
Pan Yun took out four talismans and said, "I don't have any Wenchang talismans ready. I will draw them for you after I go back and burn incense and pray. I will send them to you the day after tomorrow at the latest."
Mr. Qian happily agreed.
"Master Qian, I actually have something to ask of you."
"Please speak, benefactor."
"Master Qian, do you know any merchants going to Datong? They must be trustworthy. I have something to send to Datong, but I don't know any merchants going there."
Mr. Qian did not ask why he did not go through the People's Credit Bureau. He thought for a while and said, "Yes, but instead of entrusting the caravan to the escort who protects the caravan, the benefactor should entrust it to the escort who protects the caravan."
Pan Yun's eyes lit up, "They hired a bodyguard?"
"Yes," Mr. Qian said with a smile, "It's just a coincidence. I know a businessman who is going to Datong to sell tea and collect some furs. He will leave tomorrow, and he has invited the county's escort to go with him." Pan Yun: "It's a bit late to collect furs now, isn't it?"
Mr. Qian said, "This business is always available. Fur is most popular from late autumn to early winter. It's a little late for him to go now, but he has a lot of money. Even if he can't sell all of it this year, he can buy it at a low price and keep it until late autumn next year."
He said, "If Datong wasn't too far away and the journey wasn't unsafe, I would have wanted Dahong to get involved in the fur business."
Pan Yun: "Are fur products selling well this year?"
"Good, better than previous years," he said, "It's very cold this year. Even in Jiangnan, we've seen freezing early. The weather is very strange. Didn't we have thunder all night just two days ago?"
"Oh my, the thunder and lightning were so scary. It also rained a little in the second half of the night. When I woke up the next day, the raindrops dripping on the leaves had turned into broken ice."
Pan Jun was thoughtful. She had just spent a winter here, so there was no comparison.
She turned her head to look at Miaozhen and Miaohe.
But Miao Zhen Miao was young and not very sensitive to such things, so she could only answer based on her feeling: "It's very cold every winter, especially on the top of the mountain."
Oh, I forgot, they live on Mount Sanqing, which is even colder than at the foot of the mountain. Well, it has no reference value.
Pan Yun and Master Qian asked for the escort's name and went to look for him immediately.
The escort looked at the box handed to him and asked, "What's in the box? How much is it worth?"
Pan Yun said: "It's worth one hundred taels. Don't ask what it is. Just make sure it's waterproof and fireproof."
Escort: "Can we collide?"
"can."
The escort thought about it and accepted it. "Okay, how do you want to ask for it? The best one is that the escort silver is 20% of the value. I will carry it with me and give priority to finding the person when we get there. If I die on the way, I will ask someone I trust to deliver it to the other party. "
"For medium-quality items, the silver is 10% of the value, sealed in a box and delivered to you. For low-quality items, the silver is half of the value, shipped together with the other items entrusted to you. Don't worry, it's no worse than what you send through the private post office."
Pan Jun glanced at them, thought for a moment, and decided to be moderate, choosing the medium one.
She paid ten taels of silver, received the receipt, and watched the escort seal the box and lock it on the spot.
Pan Yun took her key and mailed a letter, dividing it into two letters, to two recipients.
One letter told Pan Hong the code to get the box, and the other letter sent the key.
Even if he doesn't have the key, the other party will give him the box if he has the code of the letter, and then he can find a way to break the lock.
Pan Yun sent the letter and breathed a sigh of relief. Now it depended on whether her two brothers could learn martial arts after receiving the letter.
Pan Yun glanced at the deserted county streets and waved, "Let's go buy some food."
The three of them got on the ox cart and went to the grain store first.
Miaohe: "I miss our horse and cart."
Miao Zhen: "Don't think about it. It's been two days and it hasn't come back. It's obviously not meant to be with us."
Pan Yun said: "It's okay, after the New Year we will go back to Longhu Mountain in advance, and then we will take a detour to visit Master Huang, and he will prepare something for us."
Miaohe thought about it and realized it was true, so he was not too sad and just made a wish: "I hope the lost horse can meet a good owner."
Pan Yun nodded, "It will encounter it. After all, it has seen a lot of things with us. If the other party treats it badly, it will definitely know to escape."
The grain harvest in Yushan County this year can be considered a bumper one, so the grain prices in the grain shops are quite friendly.
Pan Yun brought Miaozhenmiaohe into the store to choose.
Since it is known as blessed rice, Pan Yun decided to mix them with the most nutritious rice, so of course it couldn't be just one kind of rice.
"We'll give them some eight-treasure rice."
Miao Zhen: "How much do you plan to give, Junior Master? No less, one portion is not enough for the whole family. More will cost a lot, and fulfilling wishes after the temple fair will cost money."
Pan Yun said: "It really can't be any less, one lucky bag should be 6.6 jin."
The three of them did some calculations and then picked up the food. The shop assistant then put the food they bought onto the car bag by bag.
This was considered an important customer, and the shopkeeper came to greet them personally. When he saw Pan Yun and the other two, he couldn't help but look them up and down and said with a smile, "So you are three Taoist priests."
Pan Yun turned his head and asked, "Does the shopkeeper know us?"
"Of course I know. The young Taoist priest bought food from us twice. They were for the little beggars on the street. I remember it very clearly."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "But later I heard that when the young Taoist priest sent them food, he bought it directly from the villages below, and never came to our store to buy food again."
Pan Yun said, "There is a village below our Taoist temple, so it is convenient to buy from the village. If the shopkeeper opens a grain shop at the foot of our mountain one day, I will also be happy to buy from your shop. Someone will pack it, someone will weigh it, and someone will deliver it. It is so convenient."
There is one more update. Everyone go to sleep first.
