The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism
chapter-1314

Clearly, this old fellow was preparing to play the sympathy card.

When the others saw this, they immediately cooperated with him and cried.

After all, religious people were usually very kind. They would be able to get what they wanted if they cried or threw a tantrum.

Before the few of them could react, they heard Fangzheng say lightly, "Send the guests away."

Li Daguang bitterly found himself invited out. Before he left, he asked, "Master, don't you pity me?"

Fangzheng said lightly, "That's why I didn't hit you. Fake crying isn't a good thing."

Li Daguang: "…"

As soon as Li Daguang stepped out, he saw Baird squatting outside and sighing. Seeing that Li Daguang was also invited out, he immediately asked, "You're out too? How's the situation inside?"

Li Daguang shrugged and said, "It's not optimistic. Sigh…"

Before he could finish his sentence, Yalman and the rest came out. They exchanged looks, and before they could say a word, they knew that they had screwed up!

"What do we do? Do we just go back like this?" Baird said unhappily.

"Abbot Fangzheng is a true master. He isn't moved by money or fame. To be honest, there's nothing we can give to a person who doesn't seek fame or fortune and doesn't have any close friends or relatives," said Nicholas.

"Indeed. He's a true master," Yalman said.

At that moment, Li Daguang suddenly shouted, "Who said he doesn't have any friends?"

"Could it be?" Yalman smelled.

Li Daguang looked at One Finger Village at the foot of the mountain and chuckled. "Don't forget that Frost Bamboo Tea went on television. It's impossible that things aren't for sale when it's on television. Otherwise, the advertisement fees would have been nothing. Although top-grade Frost Bamboo tea isn't for sale, it shows their relationship. I think this might be a breakthrough point."

"That makes sense. Since we can't get Master to owe us anything, why don't we get his friends and relatives to owe us something? Indirectly, he will owe us something, right? By then, it should be fine to get some tea, right?" Baird's eyes lit up.

Hence, the few of them immediately went down the mountain.

After they reached the foot of the mountain, they headed straight for Wang Yougui's house. After revealing their identities, they were collectively chased out…

"What kind of joke is this? European family clan? South American tycoon? Do they think I'm a fool that's so easily fooled!?" Wang Yougui curled his lips and said smugly.

Dog Song added, "That's right. It's not like we are ignorant. Do you think you can fool us just because you are foreigners?"

Therefore, Wang Yougui left with Dog Song to have drinks.

At the same time, the five who were chased out of the village exchanged looks and saw the anger in each other's eyes.

"What bullsh*t village chief! He doesn't even know our Nicholas family!" Nicholas shouted.

Baird also said, "He doesn't even know about me, a South American tycoon. How did this fellow become village chief?"

Ottosky chuckled when he heard that. Back when he suffered under Monkey, they had been gloating at him. He felt better now.

Li Daguang said, "Alright, stop complaining. Today's matter is our fault. We made crazy claims. He's just a village chief. He probably has never left the country and has never come into contact with a family like yours. Instead of talking about the family, you might as well directly mention the brands that come under your families."

Yalman said, "That makes sense. What do we do now? Are we just going to let this matter rest and return home?"

Li Daguang snorted and said, "Actually, this matter is simple. We are here to give money, not to beg for money. The other party is mainly suspecting that we have ulterior motives. Since that's the case, we can just throw money at them!"

Hence, they immediately straightened their backs and returned.

However, a few minutes later, the few of them were chased out again. The main point was that there were a few big dogs chasing after them. They were so frightened that they ran all the way to the cars before escaping disaster.

"What kind of villagers are these? They've never seen checks before!"

"They're ignorant and they don't know anything about checks. When we tried to transfer money to their bank accounts, they kept calling us cheats that were trying to scam them of their account number. They even let the dogs out on us!"

"I've never felt so aggrieved while giving money!"

"What should I do? I'm very angry!" Ottosky said.

Li Daguang clenched his teeth and said, "There's a saying that Buddha needs incense, and man needs self-respect. We can't just let this matter rest! If it were to spread to Abbot Fangzheng, wouldn't we really become cheats?"

Nicholas said, "If it weren't for Fangzheng, I would have gone back."

Li Daguang chuckled and said, "At this point in time, let's not hide anything. Having witnessed Abbot Fangzheng's prowess, I believe none of you are solely doing this for the tea leaves, right?"

Nicholas said, "Of course, talking animals, a person's bell and drum that provides a catharsis. The incomprehensible stone slabs, the jade-green Frost Bamboo, the golden Luohan Tree, the bodhi tree that doesn't die in winter… All of this shows how extraordinary this monk is. Or rather, he's not a human, but a Buddha!

"Nothing is worth more than befriending a Buddha!

"Besides, he really can control the life and death of others!"

Ottosky said, "The legendary medical skills that are beyond modern medicine. Cancer, Lou Gehrig's disease, and AIDS—everything can be cured by him. Being on good terms with him is equivalent to buying a few lives."

Baird said, "That's right. This will be the best investment I'll make in my life. The prerequisite is that I'm able to invest in it…"

Yalman said, "He's a Buddha, a god. But Buddhists are particular about karma. As long as we can taint him with some karma, it's equivalent to buying insurance. I think it's worth it!"

Li Daguang chuckled and said, "The reason why you came this time is probably to confirm what happened to Italy, right? From the looks of it, those Italians weren't lying. This monk is truly capable. To be able to stir up a country by himself… Such a person is even more terrifying than nuclear weapons."

Ottosky didn't hide his thoughts and directly said, "It's partly because of that. That's why I tested that monkey. It's not a monkey at all! He's basically Monkey Sun in Chinese myth! I don't wish to provoke such a person. I just want to establish some friendship."

"I did have other intentions in the past, but I don't have them now." Baird didn't mince his words either. He even felt that if he were to be immediately kicked out, it was very likely that it had something to do with his impure intentions.

Li Daguang chuckled and said, "Since everyone has already thought things through, I'm not afraid to speak further. On this matter, everyone should put away all your tricks. We are already this old, but there are too many wonderful things in the world. To enjoy a few more years of life, the best way is to maintain a good relationship with Abbot Fangzheng. If anything were to happen, we wouldn't just die."
