Chapter 40

Chapter 40: Tooth for Teeth

No matter how exciting the program is, it will still end. Although the Buddha treasure is magical, it is impossible to have endless functions to demonstrate continuously.

When the show ended, the onlookers were all excited that the day was filled with excitement. Even those who had seen the music box last time were extremely excited. Although this Buddha treasure is different from that music box, it is even more wonderful. It is really a feast for the eyes. Well, there is also a blessing for ears. Now there is something to talk about for the family.

Everyone was excited to say goodbye to Chief Editor Xie, and Xie Hong nodded and returned the gift one by one.

The most exciting person is Mr. Chen, who is fortune telling. For others, it is just a fun and add some topic of conversation in the future. But for Mr. Chen, today is a very meaningful day. Not only did Lord Xingjun return, he also brought such a magical treasure. Now that monk has nothing to say, right?

In the end, our Taoist struggle between Buddhism and Taoism in Beizhuang County won. Mr. Chen smiled and threw it at Xie Hong with compliments. They were all blessings brought by Lord Xingjun.

Some people are proud, some are frustrated. Chen Guanyu's happiness is based on the pain of monk Jiujie. Xie Hong, who was being harassed by the fortune teller with compliments, looked at Jiujie very embarrassedly. Alas, a very energetic monk suddenly became depressed and was walking past his door dejectedly. The shadow behind him made the old man look so sad...

It's really a sin, Xie Hong sighed. Actually, I didn't want to do it either, it was purely a mistake.

Of course, there is another person who is extremely complicated and can't be described in words. Of course, this person is just taking care of everything.

As a child of the Gu family, Gu Quan should be happy about what happened today. Gu Quan was indeed happy in his heart. This treasure was so magical, as long as the master got it, he would be just around the corner, and he would naturally follow the chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven.

He was surprised by the treasure, not only was the exquisitely made, but it was so sturdy. This was simply amazing. Gu Quan recalled the scene at that time and did use all his strength.

He thought this in his heart, and when he looked at Xie Hong again, he felt full of fear.

Xie Hong left a deep impression on him today. If it were Gu Quan himself, he would never let a person he didn't know smash such a treasure with a wooden hammer. Even though he knew that the treasure was strong, what if the person was smashed more than him? Or if it was smashed in a crooked way, it wouldn't be so strong everywhere in the pagoda, he wouldn't be worried about something?

Looking back at the scene, Gu Quan was covered in cold sweat, especially the casual smile on the corner of Xie Hong's mouth. Such an expression could not be artificial. Gu Quan kept staring at Xie Hong at that time, and clearly saw that when he saw that he had hit the hammer, the other person's face did not even shake his eyelashes...

This man was so terrible. Although he had already run far away, Gu Quan still dared not slow down. Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without making any sound. How deep is this man's scheming? How can he get this treasure from such a person? With his heart full of thoughts, he also went away.

Until the crowd dispersed, even Mr. Chen was persuaded to leave by Xie Hong, and Ma Wentao, who had been hiding in the distance, stepped forward.

"Brother Xie, today you have opened my eyes to Lao Ma. If anyone told me yesterday that there was such a thing in the world, Lao Ma would definitely not believe it. However, in the future, as long as Brother Xie said it was OK, I would have no doubts at all."

Xie Hong has heard too many compliments at this moment. After hearing Ma Wentao say this, he just smiled slightly.

"Brother Ma has worked hard these days," Xie Hong said with great difficulty first, and lowered his voice and asked again: "How is the investigation of that matter?"

Hearing Xie Hong's question, Ma Wentao smiled, looked around vigilantly, and said, "It's been found out. Brother Xie, there are so many people outside, let's go in and talk." Xie Hong nodded, and the two entered the yard together.

Before everyone dispersed, Erniu had already moved the pagoda into the house. When he entered the house and saw the pagoda, Ma Wentao was amazed and said, "Brother Xie, this treasure is indeed great, but is it a bit sloppy if you ask the Gu family to hit it with a hammer? If the man is too strong or simply has bad intentions and smashes other parts of the pagoda, it would be awful."

If Gu Quan were here, he would definitely nod, because this question also caused considerable trouble to him.

Xie Hong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. This pagoda has been tested once before. Even Erniu's strength only makes the bell louder."

Ma Wentao looked at Erniu when he heard this, and the big black man grinned and said, "Well, I used all my strength to smash it once. The bell was so loud that it was so shocking that my ears couldn't hear it."

Xie Hong nodded and continued to explain: "As for his intentional deception, isn't Erniu still staring at him? Even if there is still something, it might be okay. I left a lot of spare parts when I did it, and it was repaired very quickly." Gu Quanran overestimated Xie Hong. He was not cunning, but had enough preparations, so that he could not worry about it.

The term "spare parts?" is quite novel, and Ma Wentao was stunned when he heard it. However, recently some new terms popped up in Xie Hong's mouth from time to time, and he was used to it. He thought that since he had asked, he would just ask it clearly and ask the biggest question in his heart: "Brother Xie, where did the bell come from? The sound is so loud, but..."

"Well," Xie Hong smacked his lips, it was not easy to explain, "This is using the principle of echo..." He explained a few words, but the other two people widened their eyes and looked confused.

Xie Hong scratched his head, it was a headache. This theory surpassed the times and could not be explained. "Anyway, there are some mechanisms that can amplify the sounds. Do you understand this way? In fact, you didn't listen carefully. The sound is still different from the real bell. Well, everyone was stunned, so no one noticed it."

After explaining it randomly, she finally fooled it. Xie Hong remembered what he just asked.

"Brother Ma, tell me about the Gu family first."

"Oh," Ma Wentao thought for a while, but still couldn't figure it out. When Xie Hong asked him, he simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he talked about the news he had found: "The Gu family has thousands of acres of fertile land in Beizhuang County, and it is said that there are many businesses outside, and the specific wealth is really unaware of. However, the money he can use can be estimated."

Ma Wentao pointed his finger and said, "The annual inputs of his family's land acres are..., and the amount of money that can be paid back every year in the outside business is..., and there are some miscellaneous inputs, which are about 30,000 taels."

Xie Hong was overjoyed and said, "Brother Ma, I'm really tired. I can find out so clearly."

Ma Wentao laughed and said, "The Gu family acted mean, especially to foreigners. A few months ago, an old employee was kicked out because he was old. However, this person had some tricks and had long been interested in his business. So when I came to him, he made a fortune and he sold the news to me."

After saying that, he was puzzled again, "Brother Xie, do you want to sell this to the Gu family?"

"It's just about selling it to him." Xie Hong nodded.

"The Gu family was so disgusting before, why should they be cheap? Even if they wanted to sell it, wouldn't it be the same if they wanted to sell it in Xuanfu or Beijing? Such a treasure can still be sold at a high price wherever they go. Moreover, Brother Xie, didn't you say you would send it to the capital to offer it to the emperor?" Ma Wentao was anxious. The Gu family's face was annoyed when he thought of it. How could he be willing to be at this time?

Xie Hong's plan was not fully explained, and Ma Wentao only knew part of it. Seeing that he was anxious, Xie Hong smiled and comforted: "Brother Ma, you don't know what kind of person you are. Do you think I am like the kind of person who was slapped on the left face and then stretched on the right face?"

Of course, Ma Wentao shook his head, Xie Hong smiled wickedly and said, "Brother Ma, you went to the Gu family with me last time and got angry. There will be a chance tomorrow. Do you want to get this angry back?"

"That's good," Ma Wentao's eyes lit up and he said anxiously: "What opportunity?"

"Of course, we will get it back as they make us angry."
