Even in summer, the wind here in Mogao Grottoes is very strong.
Taoist Wang's homespun cotton robe was blown askew by the wind.
In Zhao Chuanxin's opinion, this man's eyes were dull, and his expression was warm and timid. A great writer in later generations called him "the clown who made the wrong move in a huge national tragedy."
Although everyone keeps saying that asking the humble Taoist Wang to bear this huge cultural debt will make them look boring.
That means that they are superior, and Taoist Wang is very humble. He is not worthy of Taoist Wang taking the blame, but he still bears all the infamy.
But in Zhao Chuanxin's view, Taoist Wang, a Taoist priest with a humble peasant background, had already done the best he could in the early stage.
Starting from him, all the way up to the magistrates, prefectures and counties, court officials, and the old witch, no one is innocent. His guilt was the smallest, but history almost only remembered him and nailed him to the pillar of shame.
Isn’t that a very funny thing?
Edward Chawan said, “I will pick a few scriptures and you can sell them to me.”
Wang Taoist priest But Wei refused, and finally gave a price of a few pounds, but let Edward Chavan choose many scriptures and paintings.
Zhao Chuanxin sneered.
When I come, I won’t leave anything behind for you.
He stopped Edward Shawan and said, "It's getting late today. Let's admire it for a day and then talk about other things tomorrow."
Outside the Mogao Grottoes, there is a gourd-shaped Monk's Nirvana Pagoda with a green base. The bricks are made of yellow mud, which shows that the monks who preside over here have never been generous.
Edward Shawan is very interested in these. Since Zhao Chuanxin won't let him buy them today, let's take some photos and go back first.
As for Zhao Chuanxin, he strolled back to Mogao Grottoes.
Taoist Wang originally followed, but Zhao Chuanxin just watched but didn't speak. After following for a while, he found it boring and left.
Zhao Chuanxin could not understand the dark murals on the walls that had lost their color.
We can only roughly appreciate the Tang people's aesthetic pursuit of wealth, which is vividly expressed here.
When I opened the yellowed scrolls, I found that some were weathered and fragile, and began to fall off with a little force.
He didn’t dare to play with it casually and put it all directly into the secret realm pendant.
It can be said that except for the tall Buddha statues and murals, he could not take away even the incense burner and put them all into the secret pendant. He also installed some short colorful statues of Bodhisattva from the Tang Dynasty.
According to history, this Taoist Wang might not be greedy for money when he sold these treasures to foreigners. He sold a total of more than 200,000 taels of silver, but he did not spend any money on himself, and he lived a life of poverty.
Then what did the money do?
The money was finally used to repair the grottoes, build new statues, and develop the incense here.fire.
After Zhao Chuanxin strolled around and collected all the treasures, he looked at the Mogao Grottoes, which were empty except for the murals and tall Buddha statues, and nodded with satisfaction.
He walked out casually, came to Taoist Wang with his hands behind his back, patted him on the shoulder, and then took out a bag.
There was a rattling sound in the bag, and a smart person would definitely think that it was a bag of money.
But Taoist Wang’s numb face showed no expression.
Zhao Chuanxin said, "I know you want to develop the incense here, but remember, Mogao Grottoes cannot be moved. Come out with me."
He was holding a bag in one hand , holding Taoist Wang with one hand and walking out.
Outside the gate, there is a river.
On the other side of the river is an empty space.
Zhao Chuanxin pointed to the open space and said to him, "See the open space over there? You can build a pagoda, a temple, or a Taoist temple for your Taoist priests here. It doesn't matter. I'll give you the money. But , you can't move at Mogao Grottoes, seal the door and let no one in."
Taoist Wang "But"
Zhao Chuanxin interrupted him, "No but. If you want money, I'll give it to you. Two hundred thousand yuan is the initial investment, and you can build whatever you want. However, if you dare to touch the Buddha statues and murals in the Mogao Grottoes, do you see the gun in my hand? I will kill you with one shot. When you finish spending this money, if you think it is not enough, I will invest more. The incense here will be yours from now on, and it has nothing to do with me.”
< p> Seeing that he was silent, Zhao Chuanxin fired directly at his feet, causing loess to fly."Have you heard this? Don't think I'm trying to scare you."
Taoist Wang shuddered and was indeed frightened by Zhao Chuanxin's appearance.
The number of people who died at the hands of Zhao Chuanxin was unknown. When he got angry, his evil aura would scare even the feudal official Zhao Erxun, let alone Wang Laodao
Edward Sha Wan was attracted by the sound of gunfire. Seeing that Zhao Chuanxin had a bad look on his face and was holding a gun in his hand, he asked, "Zhao, what happened? Don't hurt Taoist Wang. He is just a poor man."
< p>Zhao Chuanxin patted Taoist Wang's face, "Poor man, you poor man, you might be infamy for eternity, you know? Remember what I said."After saying that, he turned around again Said to Edward Shavan, "You can play here by yourself for a few days. I'm leaving now."
Edward Shavan, who was simply confused, "Why did something happen to you?"
"That's not the case. I'm just going out for a trip, and when I've had enough wandering, I'll go home."
After saying that, he left the money to Taoist Wang and turned around to leave.
When he walked far away, Taoist Wang opened the bag and took a look. He couldn't carry the 200,000 silver dollars at all. How could it be 200,000 yuan?
He returned to Mogao Grottoes , opened the door and saw that the cave was empty, but there were neatly arranged silver coins on the ground
From the fact that Taoist Wang sold the treasure but did not spend the money on himself, Zhao Chuanxin felt thatThis person may not be very noble, but at least he has some vague beliefs in his heart.
Everyone values different things. For example, Lu Xun was not willing to commit suicide to assassinate senior officials of the Qing Dynasty, but Qiu Jin was willing. Just because Lu Xun was actually afraid of death, you can't think that he was a bad character or a bad person
He was afraid that this person would stick to his beliefs and not be afraid of death, so he kept the money.
Since I am willing to torment you to toss elsewhere, don’t harm that hole.
Having a choice, Taoist Wang would not seek death by destroying those Buddha statues and murals.
As for Edward Chavan, what the old boy thinks is none of his business.
The group of corpses and trash in the Qing court are not worth mentioning.
Zhao Chuanxin came to Tianjin alone.
There was a parade on the street at this time.
A sign was held saying boycott American products
We will definitely not use American products.
When several young people passed by Zhao Chuanxin, one of them came out and reached out to pull Zhao Chuanxin's shirt.
Zhao Chuanxin simply opened the opponent's hand with a "pop".
Anger appeared on the man's face: "Sir, are your clothes American?"
Zhao Chuanxin opened the edge of the lining of the clothes button, and there was a small piece there. cloth, embroidered with Zhongyi Tailor.
"Do you see clearly?"
The young man said with a smile.
"Sorry, your suit looks American."
What he said is correct, the fabric of the shirt is indeed American.
But Zhao Chuanxin would not tell him this.
"A parade is a parade, and a boycott is a boycott, but you have no right to destroy the property that the people already own."
