Chapter 190: Money Paves the Way
In the end, Old Madam Qin didn't let the old Taoist priest work for nothing; she gave him a red envelope.
There was exactly one thousand yuan inside, no more, no less.
Normally, the old Taoist priest would be overjoyed, since interpreting divination slips is a service that depends on the reward, and there is no fixed price.
Many people only have 100 or 200 yuan, while those with 300 or 500 yuan are considered big spenders.
A thousand yuan is a dream come true.
But when he thought of that stunningly beautiful girl who had made everything else in the world pale in comparison, the old Taoist priest suddenly felt that the thousand dollars was no longer worth it.
Of course, it wasn't because Qin Wanqing was so beautiful that it made his Dao heart waver, but because that little girl gave that boy a full ten thousand yuan to interpret her fortune!
Ten thousand yuan! That's ten times a thousand yuan!
A big spender like that, whom we haven't encountered in years, was snatched away by that kid!
Human greed is insatiable, and even the old Taoist priest was clearly no exception.
……
"If it's not this old Taoist priest, then who could it be..."
Ye Bai paid no attention to the old Taoist priest who wanted to fight him to the death. Instead, he looked at the message he had just received on his phone and slowly frowned.
Qin Shuang had already asked Liang Peng, and the old Taoist priest was not the "mysterious master" who had told Dong Yang's fortune.
This disappointed Ye Bai, and he could only accompany Old Madam Qin as she wandered around Qingfeng Temple, trying to find her.
After wandering around for a while, Ye Bai focused his suspicions on the backyard of Qingfeng Temple.
That is where the Taoist priests of Qingfeng Temple live; tourists are not allowed to enter.
Apart from this place, Ye Bai had explored almost the entire Qingfeng Temple, but still hadn't found his target.
This means that if there were any scoundrels from the Xuanmen sect here, they would usually be hiding in the backyard of Qingfeng Temple.
However, with so many tourists around, Ye Bai couldn't just break down the door and barge in.
After playing for a while, Old Madam Qin was a little tired, so she went to her room to rest.
Speaking of which, Qingfeng Temple does provide accommodation for tourists, but the number of rooms is extremely limited, the price is expensive, and reservations must be made in advance, otherwise it is almost impossible to book a room.
But for Qin Wanqing, none of these matters.
The Queen of Qin was most adept at using money to pave the way.
Moreover, since Qingfeng Temple has become a tourist attraction, it is no longer a purely Taoist place that is detached from the secular world, but rather a member of the Jingzhou commercial circle.
In the business world of Jingzhou, who would dare to disrespect the Qin family, the most prestigious and powerful clan?
Therefore, upon learning that Qin Wanqing was the eldest daughter of the Qin family and the former president of the Qin Group, the abbot of Qingfeng Temple personally came over.
After exchanging pleasantries, not only was the best room arranged for Old Madam Qin, but the kitchen of the Taoist temple was also instructed to prepare quickly so that the old lady could taste the vegetarian food of Qingfeng Temple.
Today, Qingfeng Temple not only provides accommodation for tourists, but also offers vegetarian meals.
Old Madam Qin readily agreed. The reason she came to Qingfeng Temple was not only to seek a fortune slip for her descendants, but also to try the vegetarian food.
Madam Zhu had dined here several times and praised it highly.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Abbot..."
Old Madam Qin expressed her gratitude, and then instructed Qin Wanqing to donate a full one million incense money to Qingfeng Temple.
This made the abbot of Qingfeng Temple beam with joy. He expressed his gratitude repeatedly and vowed that he would frequently chant sutras and pray for Old Lady Qin in the future.
May the old lady enjoy good health and live a long and healthy life, and may the Qin family prosper and make a fortune every day.
Under the powerful onslaught of money, the fact that the abbot of Qingfeng Temple didn't cry and beg to recognize Old Madam Qin as his godmother was already the greatest restraint he could muster.
"You three young people go and continue having fun. Let Feng Gu stay here and keep me company."
While Old Madam Qin was resting, she sent Ye Bai, Qin Wanqing, and Shen Lu out.
"Young master, do you think the Taoist priests here all know martial arts? How about I ask them to spar with me?"
Shen Lu kept her eyes fixed on the Taoist priests and asked in a low voice with some excitement.
"They can't beat you, there's nothing to spar with."
Ye Bai shook his head.
The Taoist priests of Qingfeng Temple we see so far, although their steps are much more steady than ordinary people, clearly indicate that they have practiced martial arts, but it should be the kind that strengthens the body, which is completely different from the combat training that Shen Lu, the little martial arts fanatic, has been practicing.
If this little girl were allowed to unleash her full power, all the Taoist priests at Qingfeng Temple combined wouldn't be enough to defeat her alone.
"……All right."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lu instantly lost interest, her little head drooped, and she began to look listless.
She has only two hobbies: eating and fighting.
As for sightseeing, it might be a bit novel at first, but it quickly becomes boring.
"Does Aunt Chen also like to eat vegetarian food outside?"
Ye Bai suddenly had a thought and looked at Qin Wanqing to ask.
After arriving at Qingfeng Temple, he realized that his previous judgments had many flaws.
It is true that this place is only open until 6 p.m., but that's for ordinary tourists.
As for tourists staying here, they are not included at all.
Furthermore, the vegetarian restaurants are small and open until 8 p.m. to prevent tourists from queuing for half a day only to find they can't get a table.
Therefore, it's not necessarily a problem that Chen Jingmei came to Qingfeng Temple that night.
Qin Wanqing clearly realized this as well, and nodded upon hearing this, saying, "She eats vegetarian food every day, just like you did last time. As for whether the food at home is better or the food outside is better, only she herself probably knows."
As she finished speaking, a mocking smile appeared on Qin Wanqing's lips.
In front of Ye Bai, she didn't need to pretend that she disliked Chen Jingmei, her stepmother.
"...Why don't we just elope? Your Qin family is too complicated, it's giving me a headache."
Ye Bai's lips twitched; he truly felt exhausted.
He wasn't afraid of Qin Wanqing's fate of bringing misfortune to her husbands, but he really couldn't stand the infighting among the Qin family members.
It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I feel bored and annoyed.
Wouldn't it be better if everyone could happily make money together and then live their own lives?
What's the point of fighting for power and profit every day?
After much difficulty, I managed to win over my third aunt and uncle, as well as my fifth uncle, sixth uncle, and eldest aunt's husband.
Now that Uncle and Aunt have returned, and Chen Jingmei, the stepmother, is also involved, it's unclear what role she plays...
The Qin family is huge, and while they may not have much else, they certainly have a lot of people, and none of them are easy to deal with!
However, he couldn't simply sit idly by, as Qin Wanqing's situation was related to his future quality of life.
"Run away with me my foot! Stop watching dramas with Lulu!"
Qin Wanqing rolled her eyes, then said calmly, "Don't worry, it won't be long before those clowns behave themselves."
"Is there anything I can do for you?"
Ye Bai didn't ask any further questions; he only wanted to do his duty and didn't want to get involved in anything else.
"Just try not to upset me anymore..."
Qin Wanqing snorted twice, just about to take the opportunity to teach this guy a lesson, when she saw Ye Bai's eyes suddenly narrow and he made a shushing gesture at her.
