The people in the house exchanged looks . Lin Dongshi showed them a wry smile, "This is the first time I'm seeing a village chief that washes his hands of such matters . "
"I think it's great . At least he isn't bossy and respects others," said Luo Li .
Lin Dongshi curled his lips and did not say a word .
Outside, Wang Yougui explained the situation to Fangzheng, "Fangzheng, there is a film production company in the province . If they were to film on Mt . One Finger, it would become famous! When the time comes, our village will also bask in your limelight . There will be tourists that will bring world-shattering changes to our village . At the very least, every family will enjoy better days . "
"Patron Wang, what do you think?" asked Fangzheng .
"What I think? Of course it's best to let them film . This is like having something fall into your lap, best to look a gift horse in the mouth . "
"This Penniless Monk does not have any misgivings . As long as the monastery's quietness is not disturbed, they are free to do as they wish . "
Fangzheng was naturally happy to help the villagers . However, he could not give the go ahead if these people would end up causing trouble .
Wang Yougui understood Fangzheng's apprehensions . He had learned his lesson from the Calligraphy Association episode . Therefore, he patted himself on the chest, "Don't worry . Leave this matter to me! The rules will be made clear . If they dare cause trouble, we will get them to scram . We won't take their business . How about it?"
"Then, This Penniless Monk will defer to you, nor does This Penniless Monk wish to be bothered by it . " Fangzheng spoke his mind . Firstly, he did not understand the intricacies and secondly, an answer on the farming evaded him despite thinking on it for days . He was in no mood to be involved in such worldly matters .
Wang Yougui was overjoyed . He hung up and returned to discuss the contract .
Wang Yougui's requests were not demanding . Other than not disturbing the monastery's peace, the filming crew's board and lodging needed to be provided by the village . The village did not ask them for an exorbitant price either . The price was fair and hygiene was guaranteed, etc . . .
Director Yu saw how pragmatic Wang Yougui was and did not plant any legal loopholes he could exploit . Everything was done properly and he was happy with the results . Both sides clicked and everything was settled .
When Director Yu left the village, he even chuckled and twirled his mustache while saying, "This is the first time I've encountered such an honest village . "
Lin Dongshi added, "Indeed . But the locations we filmed in the past had mostly merchants, not villagers . It's normal for them to be snobbish . "
Old Tao nodded . "This is the countryside . The people are honest . This is the first place I've encountered that has only raised such trivial requests . Furthermore, they did not even try to cheat us . "
"It will be good if humans are all this simple . . . Everyone will be more relaxed . " Director Yu stretched his back and leaned back into his seat . He closed his eyes, "Inform the crew to make the preparations . "
"Alright!" Lin Dongshi responded before sending the news .
"Alright!" Lin Dongshi responded before sending the news .
As for Fangzheng, he was sitting by the door in a daze .
"Mountain is the mountain, water is water . . . What does this mean? What has this got to do with farming?" Fangzheng scratched his head and he shook it, annoyed .
"Squeak . " Squirrel jumped onto Fangzheng's shoulder from the wall . Seeing how disheartened Fangzheng looked, he generously gave Fangzheng a pine nut for the first time .
Fangzheng rubbed the little fellow's head, "Thank you . "
"Yi!" Fangzheng heard a distant strange sound . Following that, Monkey ran back with Lone Wolf closely behind . Lone Wolf suddenly sped up and pounced on Monkey . The duo was fooling around . Fangzheng was amused when he saw this .
With Fangzheng laughing, the two animals stopped and sat up .
Fangzheng understood their intentions . They realized that he had been vexed and had deliberately stirred things up to help him relax .
Fangzheng stood up, "Alright, to think all of you started acting . This Penniless Monk will stop thinking . Let's go . Time to play!"
"Ao woo!"
"Ao woo!"
"Yi! Yi!"
"Squeak . . . "
"Pa!"
"Aiyah! Squirrel, how do you still have bang snaps? Didn't you throw them all the last time?"
Pa!
Ah woo! Lone Wolf objected!
"Yi! Yi!" Monkey clapped his hands and laughed . To his horror, a snap bang exploded on his head, giving him quite a fright .
Squirrel took out a small bag smugly . Fangzheng had made it for him and it was used to store his pine nuts . It was to alleviate the need of stuffing the pine nuts into his mouth . But in the end, Squirrel had used it to store ordnance!
"Run!" Fangzheng led the retreat .
Lone Wolf and monkey quickly chased him while Squirrel transformed into a demon king that pursued them with bang snappers . . .
"Run!" Fangzheng led the retreat .
Lone Wolf and monkey quickly chased him while Squirrel transformed into a demon king that pursued them with bang snappers . . .
Fangzheng relieved the knot in his heart in the following days . He recited the scriptures and struck the wooden fish when necessary . When he had the time, he would read the Buddhist Dharma and study the insights others had of the Buddhist Dharma . If he had nothing to do, he would have fun with the animals . Monkey's arrival helped Fangzheng a lot . As an intelligent monkey, he was given the task of wiping the roof beams and other high spots in the temple hall . As for the Buddha plaque and other things below, Fangzheng did not yet trust him enough .
Seeing how dexterous Monkey was, Fangzheng smiled . "Amitabha . Well done . "
Monkey looked up smugly and mimicked Fangzheng by holding his palms together . He made a few sounds and actually did look like a monk! He scratched his ass afterwards, losing the image .
With a sudden idea, Fangzheng went to the backyard and took out his old monk clothes and gave it to Monkey . Immediately, a monkey monk stood in front of Fangzheng . If not for Monkey's face and fur, he truly looked human .
Monkey was pleased with his getup . In fact, Monkey liked to mimic Fangzheng . It was unknown why but it could have to do with the Lotus Flower Conveyance that Fangzheng had delivered . He would mimic every action as though becoming Fangzheng was his life goal as a monkey . However, he was just short of something . After dressing up, he felt even more like Fangzheng and was naturally happier . He called out to Lone Wolf and squirrel, ran out screaming and rushed into the distant forest . With Monkey, the picking of pine nuts went a lot faster . Fangzheng had snacks to eat almost everyday . He no longer needed to eat under the watchful eyes of Squirrel .
Fangzheng believed that with competition, Squirrel would be more hardworking and not simply ask to be fed while doing nothing . In the end, he joined Monkey's camp shamelessly . All he did was eat and drink until he became fatter . He looked like a ball when he ran . Fangzheng even suspected that if he did not need to climb up the tree, Squirrel would likely be as fat as a ball .
With nothing to do, Fangzheng took out his cell phone and read the news . And the moment he did so, he saw a picture pop up in front of him .
Fangzheng could not be bothered with such recommended news but as he tapped to close it, he mistapped and entered the page .
