Chapter 445 Can I touch your bald head?
Sang Ye and Zheng Xingguang exchanged glances. This man dared to come out and sell water, and dared to sell water so ostentatiously, which meant that he had a backer, and a powerful one at that.
Sang Ye glanced at a guard.
The guard understood and went to investigate the matter immediately.
Sang Ye glanced at the water vendor twice, then walked to the side with Mu Baobao and the others.
"Big brother," Mu Baobao couldn't help but ask curiously, "Can you still make money by selling water?"
Sang Ye said softly, "As long as it's not controlled or prohibited by the court, theoretically, it can be sold. It all depends on whether there are people willing to buy it."
"It's just like those fake Taoist priests selling so-called miracle drugs. Some people are willing to buy them, but some people are not."
Mu Baobao understood, "I've never seen a fake Taoist priest. My grandma said she had seen one. That fake Taoist priest was really good at boasting. He boasted about everything in the sky and on earth. Many people in the village paid money to buy his things."
"My grandmother also said that her mother-in-law wanted to buy it, but she scolded her."
Sang Ye said, "It's similar."
He didn't say more.
After wandering around the foot of the mountain for a while, they came to the temple before the weather got to the hottest.
I don’t know if it’s because there are so many trees in the temple, or if there’s some secret method used by the temple, but it feels a lot cooler as soon as I arrive at the temple.
"It's so cool!" Wooden Baby jumped up and down on the ground. "Brother, is it as cool as our village?"
When Mu Pingping heard her mention the village, he really missed it a little. Life in the village was much simpler.
In contrast, what you can learn in the village is limited.
"It's not that cool in our village."
He looked around and asked, "Are there a lot of trees here?"
Zheng Xingguang was there playing with Mu Baobao, and there were guards guarding them.
Sang Ye said he wasn't sure, "Maybe it's because there are so many trees."
"Let's not worry about that. We're mainly here to have fun."
Mu Pingping just asked casually. He and Sang Ye chatted about academic matters as they walked.
Mu Baobao was pulling Zheng Xingguang to play there. She was curious about everything in this temple.
Especially seeing the bald monk.
She covered her mouth with her paws and whispered, "Look, little brother, their bald heads can reflect light, so amazing."
Zheng Xingguang followed her gaze and saw two shiny bald heads.
“…It’s quite impressive.”
It nearly blinded him.
Mu Baobao pulled him in front of the two monks and stared at their bald heads.
"uncle."
She stood on tiptoe and asked in a milky voice, "Can I touch your bald heads? They look so nice to touch."
The two monks were not angry. They smiled and said, "Sorry, little donor, you can't touch it."
"I'm not a pig." Mu Baobao was offended. "I'm Mu Baobao. You can just call me Baobao."
"Baby, they are talking about the little donor." Zheng Xingguang coughed lightly to suppress the laughter in his throat.
"This is a Buddhist term for others."
Baby Mu nodded his little head, not embarrassed at all, "So that's how it is."
"Uncle, where are you going?"
The monk said, "We need to complete our homework."
Mubaobao's face was shocked. "Do you have homework too?"
She raised her little hand with all her strength, "Uncle, can I go with you to check on your homework?"
The two monks agreed, and people would often watch them do their homework.
Mu Baobao was very happy. He pulled Zheng Xingguang, called Mu Pingping and Sang Ye, and followed the two monks.
She is going to see her uncle doing homework.
Two monks were doing their homework in one of the halls.
It is chanting scriptures.
A group of monks sat there, chanting scriptures in unison.
Hearing that Mu Baobao was dozing off, he soon fell asleep in Mu Pingping's arms.
Mu Pingping and Sang Ye smiled at each other, then left with Mu Baobao and Zheng Xingguang.
"Baby is really..." Sang Ye shook his head.
Mu Pingping said, "The baby is asleep now, I'm afraid he won't wake up for a while."
Sang Ye said, "Let's send the baby back to the wing room first and let the maid take care of her. We will just stay here."
Mu Pingping thought this was a good idea, so he sent his sister back to her room to sleep, with a maid and two guards looking after her.
Afterwards, Mu Pingping, Zheng Xingguang and Sang Ye walked around the temple.
Zheng Xingguang has been to several temples outside Rongdu. "This temple is relatively simple, unlike those temples outside Rongdu, which are more luxurious."
Sang Ye nodded in agreement, "That's indeed the case."
"However, most of the visitors to temples outside Rongdu are the powerful and influential, so we need to work harder in this area."
Many powerful people value reputation and face, so they pay great attention to the so-called appearance.
Mu Pingping didn't interrupt. He didn't understand these things and it would be good for him to listen more.
Several people were talking about irrelevant things.
"Young Master." A guard came to Sang Ye and saluted.
Sang Ye first looked around to make sure there was no one around before saying, "You go."
The guard said, "After investigation by my subordinates, it seems that the county magistrate has done many evil things in secret."
"The details need to be further investigated."
"However, the county magistrate has learned that Prince Zheng is here and wants to send some gifts."
Zheng Xingguang rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "If he dares to come and give me a gift, I will report him to the Emperor and have him stripped of his official position."
Sang Ye gave him a helpless smile before saying to the guard, "Keep investigating and see if the county magistrate has made any other moves recently."
The guard took the order and went back to handle the matter.
Sang Ye patted Zheng Xingguang on the shoulder and said, "It's normal for people to give you gifts."
"You are in such a high position and are favored by the Emperor. It is normal for people below you to want to curry your favor. You cannot take action because of this."
Zheng Xingguang was not unaware of this, "I can't stand these people giving gifts."
"It's so annoying!"
Sang Ye could understand, "Prince Zheng, if the county magistrate really brings a gift, you can't get too angry, but you have to let him know that you don't like gifts."
"Also, you have to let him know that you are indeed here for fun and will be leaving in two days."
Zheng Xingguang said, "I am aware of all this, Mr. Sang, don't worry."
Sang Ye sighed, "Prince Zheng has really grown up a lot. You were never this easy to talk to before."
Zheng Xingguang's face darkened and he didn't want to bother with this person anymore.
Sang Ye didn't care. She turned around and said to Mu Pingping with a smile: "Giving gifts is also a science."
"Generally speaking, families often exchange gifts with each other, and the gifts must be based on the other party's situation."
Mu Pingping learned a lot and bowed to him, "Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Sang."
It turns out that there is so much knowledge involved in giving gifts alone.
They walked around for a while and were about to go back to the room to see Mu Baobao when another guard came back.
"Master," the guard saluted and said quietly, "According to my investigation, there is more than one person selling water."
“Water is usually sold in places like this, not in town.”
