The next spring came and the weather got warmer.
Xia Jili took Xia Ke's hand and walked off the bus, watching the child walk into school with a gentle smile in his eyes. Just then, the phone rang.
"Hello? Hello, I'm Xia Jili." Xia Jili said.
"Boss Xia? I'm Lao Xu! Our company's project has been completed, and the funds are back. I can pay back the money I owe you. Yes, there's interest, so I'll pay it back together. Hehe..." On the other side of the phone, A fat man with a bruised nose and swollen face said while wiping his nose. Opposite him, there was a young man sitting. If Fang Zheng was here, he would definitely recognize him. This person is none other than the young master Jing Yulong!
"Ah?" Xia Jili was stunned. This tough guy who owed him money for five years actually wanted to pay back the money? He felt like he was dreaming!
Lao Xu hung up the phone, and then several more calls came, all from people who owed money and were ready to pay back. Xia Jili did the math, and with this money, he seemed to be resurrected with full health! Xia Jili couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar, man, who doesn't want to become famous? Who wants to be ordinary? With money and ability, he must do something big! What he owes his daughter, he will pay back ten times!
Then Xia Jili received another call, and it turned out to be a call from the city!
"What? Secretary Sun, are you telling the truth? Is this project really going to be handed over to our company? Okay, okay, I'll take it! Of course I'll take it, haha... Oh, no, I don't have any workers on hand right now." After Xia Jili laughed, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't worked for several months and all the workers on hand were scattered. If he started working in a hurry, he might not have enough manpower! I just look for anyone, but I’m afraid the quality won’t keep up.
However, Secretary Sun said there was no rush and asked him to go back and think about it before replying.
Unfortunately, I went back and contacted him several times. Now it is the beginning of spring, the peak labor period, and all the familiar foremen have started work, so it is difficult to come over. Xia Jili was also in a state of distress... He could only ask someone to post a job recruitment notice on the door of the company to do his best to manage personnel.
The next day, Xia Jili rushed to the company after sending Xia Ke to school. When he arrived at the door, he was dumbfounded. He saw a group of people sitting at the door, eating cakes and drinking water, talking and laughing.
When these people saw Xia Jili, they immediately got up and ran over. When they got closer, Xia Jili saw clearly that the leader was Wang Dayou!
"Boss Xia, we heard that you have a job, so we came here. Do you want to hire someone?" Wang Dayou asked happily with a smile.
Xia Jili looked at the people in front of him and was dumbfounded. They were all the workers who had been owed wages by him in the previous batch! Looking at these smiling faces, Xia Jili cried and bowed directly and said: "Thank you everyone!" He was not a fool. He knew the details of these people very well. They were all old workers and had jobs for a long time. This is a temporary job change!
"Boss Xia, you're welcome. We've seen clearly what you are like last time. I'll follow you, brothers, don't worry! But if you continue to delay your wages, you'll have to sell the company, hehe..." A strong man laughed. road.
As a result, there was a lot of yelling: "Don't be so dumb! We want to get rich!"
Xia Jili gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, get rich! Double everyone's salary! Get rich together!"
"Yeah!" The cheers were loud...
From a distance, Jing Yan watched this scene and sent a message to Fang Zheng: "Good people are rewarded, it's great..."
But that was a few months later.
Now Fang Zheng, after curing Wang Dayou's son's illness, was walking on the mountain road, scolding Xianyu: "Didn't you say that your salty smell won't spread? What's going on in Wang Dayou's son's ward?"
Xianyu said disapprovingly: "Master, what I said is that my salty smell will not be passed on to others. But I didn't say that it will not spread the smell? But don't worry, the wind on our mountain is strong, and I have this little taste , it disperses as soon as it blows.”
Fang Zheng: “…”
"Master, I just can't figure it out. You were obviously the one who helped Wang Dayou get out of the crisis. If you hadn't saved Qiu Yu, he probably would have gone in anyway. If you hadn't initiated the relationship, even if Jing Donor had the ability to make a comeback, It's a lot of trouble. You should each take half the credit for this. And that little guy, if you hadn't taken action, even if someone donated money, he wouldn't have recovered so quickly, right? I even doubt whether they could have saved him. Live him. And you have done so many good things, but when it comes time to claim credit, you actually ran away! Especially when you saved the little guy, you didn't even show your face and were invisible throughout the whole process! You don't even dispute such a great merit. What are you planning on?" Xianyu asked, a little confused.
Fang Zheng patted the fish's head and said: "First, there are some things that the poor monk will not fight for. Second, you yourself are wrong. Although the poor monk tried his best in this matter, other people will not fight for it." There is no idle time. The poor monk is cheating with his magical powers, but the others are working hard with real actions. In this regard, the poor monk is not as good as them.
As for the final rescue of Wang Dayou's son... Do you think that if the poor monk showed up to save someone, how would he explain it once he was discovered? Tell them medical knowledge? Even if he could win everyone's argument, where did the poor monk's medical skills come from? The medical skills of the Poor Monk Society are far beyond those of our world, and these things cannot be seen at all. "
"You can say that this is supernatural power, or that the Buddha has descended, or that a Bodhisattva has possessed him, or something like that!" Xianyu said.
Fang Zheng said: "In the end, don't everyone have to thank Buddha and Bodhisattva? Do you think they are embarrassed to accept this kind of gratitude? Xianyu, our world is not the world of gods and immortals you live in. In our world, except for poor monks No one has supernatural powers. After all, there is only one poor monk, with limited abilities and limited things he can do. Those doctors on the front line are the ones who really save the suffering and save people... If the poor monk can use supernatural powers to overpower all doctors, he will certainly become famous, and he will be a god and a Buddha. Great increase in status!
But have you thought about the consequences? That is, the status of gods and Buddhas has greatly increased, and the status of doctors has plummeted. The world only believes in gods and Buddhas and not science! In our world, gods and Buddhas are spiritual sustenance and detachment. They are a kind of spiritual pursuit and enlightenment, and a spirit that persuades all living beings to be good and pursue the origin of morality.
But it is impossible for people in this world to live without matter and their souls alone. The price of excessive belief in gods and Buddhas will be material stagnation, production regression, all industries degenerating, and thousands of years of human efforts will be in vain! That is not a merit, that is a great sin! "
Xianyu was stunned. He was not from this world. When thinking about problems, he always subconsciously thought with his worldview. Now that Fang Zheng said this, he fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said, "That seems to be the case... But if you say this, doesn't it mean that you are not a Buddhist or a sin?"
Fang Zheng shook his head and said: "On the contrary, the ancients said that if morality is not matched, it will lead to disaster. Material development must have a matching spiritual realm as the foundation. Otherwise, it means that morality is not matched...
Materials are advancing by leaps and bounds, and without spiritual sustenance and faith, there will be a lack of morality, money first, and the devilish nature of profit-seeking. The consequences are equally terrible! If the material is missing, people will die. If the spirit is missing, people will be inhuman. If they plunder all things, everything will die! Including humans themselves! This is the devil in our world!
Therefore, whether it is Buddha or Tao, the sages and saints of hundreds of schools of thought, or all faiths in the East and the West, everyone takes morality as the criterion, and the Tao they preach is to save people and do good. The taste of shouting is all about slaying demons! Therefore, neither of the two is more important. Balanced progress is the way to go. "
While they were talking, one person and one salted fish had already arrived on the mountain. Before entering the mountain gate, Fang Zheng realized that something seemed wrong in the atmosphere in the temple!
