Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"Uncle, is there really no other way?"

Changsun Wuji sighed, patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder and said:

"Gao Ming, my uncle will not harm you. If you can cooperate with Chu Mo this time and obtain enough food for the Tang Dynasty, this matter will not only be faultless, but also meritorious."

"When the time comes, instead of blaming you, your father will look at you with admiration."

After hearing Changsun Wuji's words, Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and secretly made up his mind:

"Okay, it's all up to uncle's arrangement. If you need anything, just ask."

Changsun Wuji nodded with satisfaction, and then began to order the removal of Chu Mo's wanted order and put up the imperial list. First, he cleared Chu Mo's name, then he apologized deeply, and finally he wanted him to go to the Prince's Mansion to make compensation. Negotiation of matters.

As soon as the news came out, the entire city of Chang'an was in an uproar.

Originally, the closure of shops had caused panic in the past few days, but now His Royal Highness went directly over His Majesty the Emperor and posted an imperial apology to Chu Mo.

Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that His Highness the Crown Prince has given in.

Just when everyone was looking forward to how the prince of the Tang Dynasty would negotiate with Chang'an's number one profiteer, a piece of breaking news suddenly came out.

It turned out that the Buddha statues and some building materials in the temples that His Majesty the Emperor had previously inspected were all made of gold, and the large amount of gold circulating on the market during this period was all made of gold melted from those Buddha statues.

The most shocking thing is that our Emperor Li Shimin actually packaged these temples and gave them to Chu Mo.

As for how much gold Chu Mo got in total, no one knows and there is no way to check it.

Because the gold in those temples is the wealth accumulated by countless generations of monks, and it cannot be easily counted.

At this time, people truly realized that the biggest winner in the defeat of Chang'an Buddhism was not the Taoist sect or the royal family, but Chu Mo.

In an instant, Chu Mo, who was already at the forefront of the imperial list incident, became even more famous.

Seeing the news sent by the black commander, Chu Mo was speechless.

He originally just wanted to make a fortune in silence, but now it's good that this news has directly attracted the attention of everyone in the world to himself.

You don't need to think about it to know that the news this time was definitely released by the Buddhist monks.

Originally, Chu Mo was thinking about whether to let these bald donkeys go first and let them divert Li Shimin's attention, so that they would not miss him every day.

But now it seems that everything is my own fault.

I originally wanted to let Buddhism continue to survive, but the monks in Buddhism didn't realize it and always wanted to cause trouble behind my back.

First he incited Li Chengqian to deal with him, and now he broke such explosive news.

Thinking of this, Chu Mo showed a contemptuous smile.

Those monks who dared to reveal this matter were not afraid that they would also be coveted by others?

So, not long after, another news came out in Chang'an City:

Since Chu Mo picked up so many gold treasures, are there more gold treasures in the temples that have not been inspected?

The monks have so much money on the surface, so are they hiding even more shocking treasures secretly?

As soon as the news came out, everyone involuntarily began to fantasize about the bottomless details of Buddhism.

Some gamblers who want to get rich overnight have turned their attention to Buddhism.

Just kidding, wherever Chu Mo is hiding now, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has to post a royal list to find the person. It is undoubtedly a fool's errand to rely on these stragglers to find the person.

Besides, there was only one Chu Mo, and now countless pairs of eyes were staring at him. As he was, he might have been caught first without even being able to see his shadow.

But Buddhism, which also has endless wealth, is different. There are many monks in Buddhism. It is not said that every monk knows where the Buddhist treasures are hidden, but more or less they know some secrets.

If these monks were caught, not only eating meat and drinking soup, but also getting some leftovers would be enough for him to eat and drink for the rest of his life.

As for the big forces and the aristocratic families who knew the true strength around Chu Mo, they all set their sights on Buddhism.

After all, Chu Mo was just a lonely man. If he couldn't take down the other party at once, the retaliation he would suffer later would be something that none of their families could afford.

As for Buddhism, there are so many monks, and if one or two get lost occasionally, isn't that normal?

As a result, a vigorous operation to arrest the monks began.

This also led to Buddhism directly announcing the closure of mountains and temples for a long time, refusing to accept all pilgrims.

Li Chengqian never expected that the plans he had made would disappear because of a few rumors.

At this time, he was no longer as unruly as before, and was looking at Changsun Wuji anxiously, hoping that he would come up with an idea.

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "If there is no news that Chu Mo has obtained the Buddhist treasure, maybe our conditions can impress him and make him take the initiative to negotiate with us."

"But now that the news has broken out, countless pairs of eyes are staring at you and me. I'm afraid Chu Mo doesn't dare to come out at all now."

"If those people dare to stare at Chu Mo, then I will send the imperial guards to seal the city directly. As long as Chu Mo shows up, I will definitely protect him."

Changsun Wuji smiled and did not answer Li Chengqian's words, but asked:

"Gao Ming, do you want to get the gold in Chu Mo's hands?"

Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, and then said with bright eyes: "Of course, with so much gold, who wouldn't want to get it if there is a chance."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chengqian seemed to realize something and looked at Changsun Wuji in disbelief.

Changsun Wuji sighed and said: "Yes, you covet the gold in Chu Mo's hand, let alone others? Now you should know why Chu Mo dare not come out."

Li Chengqian stared at Changsun Wuji with an ugly expression and said:

"Uncle, it seems that no matter what promises we make or how we express our stance, Chu Mo will never show up again?"

Changsun Wuji nodded: "Yes, not to mention Chu Mo, even us, if we don't have the corresponding strength to get this treasure, I'm afraid it won't be much better. He is now a walking golden mountain, who can When I saw it, I didn’t want to go up and take a bite.”

While Changsun Wuji and Li Chengqian were discussing how to lure Chu Mo out, Chu Mo also began to worry.

For no other reason than being chased by Yang Hongyu for gold.

According to Yang Hongyu, the Taoist sect also made great efforts in dealing with the Buddhist sect, and the Taoist sect should have a share of this gold.
