After hearing this, Ye Kai couldn't help but feel a little excited. It seems that Dongshan Temple really has a treasure!

The old man continued, "The jade Guanyin in Dongshan Temple was carved from the finest mutton-fat white jade. I saw it when I was a child. At that time, it was surrounded by fences and guarded by monks day and night.

Later, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, I left Dongshan and never heard about the whereabouts of that jade statue, Guanyin."

"Old man, how tall and big is that Jade Guanyin?" Pei Deqiu asked with interest.

"Oh, I can't say this lesson. It's probably about the same size as a real person. It is said that even the eyeballs are inlaid with black gemstones. It looks like a real person and is very spiritual." The old man replied.

A few people chatted casually, but in Ye Kai's mind, he restored the grand scene of Dongshan Temple back then.

"The higher-ups have decided to rebuild Dongshan Temple. As one of the few people who witnessed the grand occasion of Dongshan Temple, can the old man provide some reference opinions, current consultants or something?" Finally, Ye Kai asked.

"Haha, I can't afford this." The old man smiled and said, "I am old, have a bad memory, and have a weird temper. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you much."

The old man looked at Ye Kai and asked curiously, "Kid, are you a public servant? You look like a student doll."

"Haha, old gentleman, I started working relatively early, and now I am doing some chores in the government department." Ye Kai replied with a smile, "Thanks to the old gentleman for your advice today, I have gained a lot. Thank you very much."

"If we can really rebuild Dongshan Temple, it will be a great thing." The old man nodded and said, "My father is a layman at home. When he mentioned the destruction of Dongshan Temple during his lifetime, he was always aggrieved."

"If the government plans to rebuild Dongshan Temple, it should be able to get the support of the masses?" Ye Kai asked casually.

"Why not support it?" Several old men said one after another, "Dongshan Temple is very famous. If Dongshan Temple is rebuilt, it will increase the number of pilgrims coming from afar. It will have many benefits for promoting local economic development.

Nowadays, various places are taking measures to develop tourism. We in Dongshan City are doing this all at once. It is in line with the trend and should be supported. Besides, Dongshan Temple has many believers and has this mass base."

"Dongshan Temple has been dilapidated for many years, but there are still believers?" Pei Yunqiu asked with some suspicion after hearing this.

"Of course there is. Look at the red strips on the big tree. Those are actually people who come to worship in the temple. It's just that there is no temple now, so everyone worships the big tree instead," someone explained.

.

"Oh, that's it." After hearing this, Pei Junqiu nodded and accepted the statement.

"Actually, there were no people who burned incense in those years before the opening up. It's just that everyone secretly burned incense at home." The old man said with some emotion, "You can't force others to follow you in your belief.

Like? Then it becomes blackmail."

"Forget about those things back then. Thinking about it now makes me feel stupid." Another old man waved his hand and said, "It's just to knock down all the gods and Buddhas in the sky, and then replace him with someone for everyone to worship.

"

"It's not like there was no such thing as exterminating Buddhism before. Buddhism has risen and fallen in China several times, but now it's flourishing again? Where there is demand, there is motivation. People's opinions cannot be changed," the old man said.

Ye Kai listened on the sidelines. Although it was inconvenient to make any comments, he also noticed an issue discussed by several old men. People's opinions were different.

This issue is actually very important. Power may be able to achieve greatness for a while, but if it does not adapt to the current situation, it will eventually be destroyed. Everyone knows this truth, but not many people can remember it when doing things.

live.

Maybe after everyone loses their faith, they have no moral restraints and no bottom line for being a human being. A person without a bottom line is very scary because you have no idea what he wants to do. Murder and arson are all trivial.

Yes, the more terrifying behavior is something you can't predict.

"It is very important to have correct and firm beliefs." Ye Kai said, "If the three views are not correct, the future will not be wrong."

They were chatting here, and Guan Youyi, who was accompanying Longzheng Festival to inspect the surroundings of Dongshan Temple, felt a little uneasy.

His son was arrested by the Dongshan City Bureau. Although he did not suffer any crime, the specific punishment was not handed down. Que Youyi was not sure in his heart. If Longzhengjie did not intervene, it would be difficult to know how the Dongshan City Bureau would handle it.

.

However, judging from the results at the scene, according to the mainland's legal provisions, there should not be severe penalties. However, Qu Youyi is worried that his son has never suffered a loss. Even if he is detained for a month, it will have a great impact on him, and even more

Don't talk about the impact on face, etc.

In order to cooperate with the Longzheng Festival, Qu Youyi also invited some wealthy businessmen from Hong Kong Island to come to Hedong Province to look for business cooperation opportunities, just to build momentum for the Longzheng Festival, and at the same time, he also wanted to take advantage of the opportunity for development.

But now that Qu Youyi's own sons have been arrested, Longzhengjie is unable to do anything. Can such a result reassure other wealthy people? If Longzhengjie cannot even save the family members of investors, then everyone can still trust him and think that in his case

Is inbound investment the right thing to do?

This is obviously impossible, so Qu Youyi feels a little distressed now and doesn't know how to deal with this matter.

The current situation is that if Longzhengjie intervenes, it may affect his own safety as the acting governor, but if he does not intervene, it will dampen the enthusiasm of investors and affect later cooperation. It is really a dilemma.

Already.

Qu Youyi's heart is now in chaos. His status on Hong Kong Island can actually only be said to be lower than the second-rate, slightly higher than the third-rate. He is not as good as the first-rate and second-rate rich men from other aristocratic families, so he wants to

If you want to develop, you have to look for new opportunities.

Relying on Longzhengjie was a good move by Er Youyi. Now that Longzhengjie has become the governor of a province, his status is different and his voice is stronger. It is obviously very important for him to enter the market of Hedong Province.

However, Qu Youyi also discovered a problem, that is, Long Zhengjie also had a set of ideas in his own mind, and he might not be completely in tune with him.

This discovery made Qu Youyi very dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Sure enough, once a person has enough power, he will have new ideas.

"How valuable is the reconstruction of Dongshan Temple? Is it really worth investing so much?" Longzhengjie suddenly spoke, a bit like talking to himself.

Of course, Qu Youyi would not think that Long Zhengjie was just talking to himself, because only he, Qu Youyi, could answer this question, so he organized his words and then said to Long Zhengjie, "On the surface, this matter is actually a matter of losing money.

In addition to building a new temple and a Dongshan Giant Buddha, we can only charge some management fees. At most, we can use this advantageous resource to build a number of supporting facilities in the surrounding area to obtain income from ancillary industries.

Long Zheng nodded. He had the same idea. However, when the future was unclear, he felt that it was not advisable for Qu Youyi to invest so much money. After all, there are many places worth investing in Hedong Province, and it may not necessarily be the case.

We can only focus on this tourism industry.

Although they are also making a fuss about the pull effect brought about by the completion of the expressway, no one has a clue whether the development of tourism can have a blowout effect.

"But there is another point that we should also see, that is, Dongshan City is also on the eve of rapid development!" Qu Youyi said to Longzhengjie, "Not only do we have our own development goals, but we can also take advantage of Dongshan City's development opportunities.

, take a ride."

"Oh? You have a very high opinion of Ye Kai." After hearing this, Long Zhengjie was a little surprised and then said calmly.

Qu Youyi believes that Dongshan City will have great development. This idea must be based on the premise that Ye Kai is in charge of Dongshan City. As the party opposing Ye Kai, Qu Youyi can have such an understanding, which will definitely make Longzhengjie feel

Somewhat unexpected.

"In the shopping mall, one cannot underestimate every opponent, because in a relatively fair competitive environment, any opponent may stand out and come from behind." Qu Youyi said eloquently, "Ye Kai has a profound background, which not only embodies the

In terms of political resources, judging from my investigation of him, he has

His influence on the business community is also quite strong, as can be seen from Mr. Haidong Pei’s investment intention this time. For such a young cadre who needs time to build political achievements, developing the local economy is naturally his top priority.

.That’s why I say that Dongshan City itself contains many business opportunities.”

"What you said is quite pertinent." Long Zheng nodded and agreed with his words, "When Ye Kai was in Jiangzhong, he built a national development zone with his bare hands. He is indeed not an ordinary person. This is common to everyone.

I know. In fact, I am also worried that if you underestimate him, it will bring trouble to yourself."

"Actually, we are already in trouble now." Thinking of his unlucky son, Qu Youyi couldn't help but sigh, thinking that his luck was really bad. If it weren't for Qu Shirong's incident, he and Ye Kai would not be in the same situation.

, now it is not so easy to use Ye Kai to make money.

Not to mention anything else, if he can develop in Dongshan City abiding by the law, it is estimated that Ye Kai will not cause him any trouble, but if he dares to cause trouble in Dongshan City, Ye Kai will definitely hit him hard.

Attacking.

Qu Youyi's mood is really complicated for this young man.
