Jing Yan added, “According to my research, other than property affecting marriage, it also affects one’s relationship. Under normal circumstances, couples that meet when they are poor and share weal and woe together just need to truly love each other. Most of them don’t care if they have a house or not. They just want to be together.
“However, they are ultimately in the minority. Most of them met through blind dates or chance encounters. They then prepare to get married at lightning speed.
“They only have passion, but not strong love for each other. Therefore, in order to protect themselves or to make themselves more comfortable in life in the future, they have many more requirements.
“That’s why it’s actually very rare to have a wife who has been through hardship with the husband…”
Red Boy grinned. “Then in the future, I’ll find a wife who’s gone through hardship.”
Fangzheng raised his hand and slapped him. “You still wish to get married?”
Only then did Red Boy recall that he was a monk. He could forget about getting married in this lifetime. He shrank his neck and said, “Master, I was just saying it casually. Hehe… Aiyah, Master, aren’t those people detestable? Should I beat them up?”
Fangzheng shook his head and said, “It’s useless beating them up. The main point is how to resolve the situation in front of us! Once the house prices are up, we have to lower the price! You heard it too. They are raising the prices through speculation, thus raising the price of the properties they have on hands. All they need is to lead the way…
“And those people who have property on hand will definitely raise their prices because of their pursuit of profits.
“It’s like Pandora’s box. Once it’s opened, the demons inside will run out continuously, but the ones who suffer in the end are the commoners of Songwu County.”
Red Boy said, “Master, do you have any good ideas?”
Fangzheng looked at Jing Yan and asked, “Patron, This Penniless Monk doesn’t know much about such things. Do you have any good solutions?”
Jing Yan said, “I don’t have a good solution either. After all, property speculation isn’t unlawful. The only solution I can think of now is to gather evidence and expose them. Then, I’ll find the government to restrict them. There’s nothing else I can do.”
Fangzheng said, “In that case, do as you say. Leave this matter to us!”
Jing Yan asked, “Master, what do you plan on doing?”
Fangzheng said, “What can This Penniless Monk do? Since they wish to speculate in property, This Penniless Monk will help them!”
Jing Yan was taken aback. “Master, you are going to speculate in property?”
Fangzheng chuckled and whispered a few words to Jing Yan. Jing Yan’s eyes immediately lit up as she said with a smile, “As expected of Master Indecent. Heh heh, this is fun. You don’t need to pay a single cent. I still have some pocket money!”
The moment that was said, Fangzheng rolled his eyes.
Seeing Fangzheng’s expression, Jing Yan pursed her lips and said with a smile, “I’m really talking about pocket money.”
As she spoke, Jing Yan took out a card and handed it to Fangzheng. “This is my bank account card. The password is 939587. Take it and use it. If it’s not enough, tell me again. I’ll report the matter to the government now… However, it probably won’t be decided so quickly. After all, property prices are part of the economy. With the government’s excessive interference, it will easily attract many criticisms.
“Furthermore, there are times when the entire body is mobilized, it’s impossible to make a decision immediately. By the way, what you wish to do is probably impossible with a single identity card. I’ll get Jing Yuhang to help you…”
When Fangzheng heard that, he returned the card to Jing Yan. “Alright, you are better at doing this than This Penniless Monk. This Penniless Monk will not compete with you. You can do it.”
Jing Yan chuckled and said, “Master, are you sure you don’t wish to spend money like dirt?”
Fangzheng was tempted when he heard that. Although he had quite a bit of incense money, he couldn’t use much of it.
Most importantly, even if he could use it, he wouldn’t squander as he was accustomed to being poor.
But this time…
Jing Yan stuffed the card into Fangzheng’s hands. “Take it.”
Fangzheng nodded and said, “Alright. This Penniless Monk shall have a kick with this.”
When Jing Yan left, Red Boy asked out of curiosity, “Master, what do you plan on doing?”
Fangzheng chuckled. “Just follow me.”
With that said, Fangzheng led Red Boy out. Fangzheng looked around and found an ATM. He inserted the card to check the balance.
Upon seeing the balance, Fangzheng’s eyes widened. He rubbed his eyes and patted Red Boy on the head. “Jingxin, help me count the number of zeros on this.”
Red Boy leaned forward and looked at it for a while before extending his two hands. He pressed down a finger whenever he counted a zero. After counting them all, he sat on the ground and hugged his toes as he continued counting…
Finally, he looked up and said, “Master, 13.3 billion…”
Fangzheng silently nodded. “It’s been hard on you. I won’t look for you if there are more than twenty digits in the future.”
Red Boy: “…”
As the saying goes, money was the guts of men. With money, Fang Zheng straightened his back and rushed straight to a real estate company…
At the same time, in the real estate company, two young men were sitting there chatting excitedly.
“Little Yu, have you heard? Our property prices are going to increase!” a man said excitedly.
“Brother Shi, I’ve heard of it as well. People say that Abbot Fangzheng is a Buddha from heaven. He will naturally bring about good fortune. Furthermore, the Buddhistic aura will spread. It extends one’s lifespan, dispels evil, and wards of illnesses… Most importantly, it’s a blessing! In life, it’s 30% hard work and 70% luck. When one is lucky, even a pig can fly!” Little Yu said excitedly.
Brother Shi chuckled. “That’s right. I heard that too. Our Songwu County is the nearest county city to One Finger Monastery. Our county city is a blessed land. However, the best is still One Finger Village. That’s a treasured land. Look at the villagers of One Finger Village. They are all rich… Unfortunately, sales of village property are prohibited. Outsiders can’t buy in either… Sigh…”
“Brother Shi, you can marry a girl from One Finger Village. Once you get married, you will be the son-in-law of One Finger Village. In the future, you will be rich and lucky. It will be easy being at the pinnacle of life. Haha…” Little Yu teased.
Brother Shi rolled his eyes and said, “Forget it. One Finger Village’s young adults are very popular now. Countless people are chasing after them. I heard that if there’s a family that has an unwed child, their doorsteps have been trampled by matchmakers and agents. Unfortunately, I haven’t heard of anyone succeeding yet… It’s best to choose second best.
“One Finger Village is the best. The surrounding villages are second best.
“However, they are all village property. There’s no chance.
“The best place now is the southeast side of Songwu County. It can hear One Finger Monastery’s bell and drum. It’s closest to the blessed land. Unfortunately, I don’t have money now. Otherwise, I will definitely buy one.”
Little Yu nodded as well. At the same time, he said, “It’s not just that. There are also people who say that because of One Finger Monastery, the place will be turned into a tourist district. There was some discussion of it in the city a while ago.”
