Temples in the Land of Fire can be seen everywhere, bright, atmospheric and coquettish.

In Mei Ji's impression, most temples are bright, solemn and sacred, and many of these temples are so beautiful that they can be called coquettish.

How can a sculptured building made of real gold and silver not be charming and charming?

In the thousands of miles of land, there are singing and dancing birds everywhere, peach blossoms and willows are green, a scene full of spring. In the villages near the water and the city walls near the mountains, there are wine flags fluttering in the wind everywhere, and there are temples and pavilions filled with incense. The pavilion stood in the hazy mist.

Such a prosperous scene.

However, let’s briefly review the history of the ninja world.

In the early Warring States Period, the world was in chaos. Daimyos from all over the country established their own regimes one after another. The five major nations were finally unified. Driven by the ninja **** Senju Hashirama, the ninja world entered a period of confrontation between the five major nations and the five major villages, ending the chaotic period. Warring States Period.

During the chaotic Warring States Period, monks achieved unprecedented development. Due to frequent wars, many civilians became monks to avoid the wars. As a result, the monk groups grew larger and larger, more temples were built, and more and more money was accumulated in the temples. .

As we all know, feeling full and warm makes you happy.

Temples have gradually become places where filth and evil practices are harbored. Many unseen things happen in temples, and due to the decrease in population, the country's population and taxes have decreased.

To put it bluntly, monks enjoy privileges and do not engage in production, but Meiji wants them to farm in the fields or work in the city. They cannot just eat free rice, but must create actual value.

Naturally, it will become a thorn in Mei Ji's side.

There can be monks, but there are too many now.

This is also the reason why Meiji did not kill Dilu. The young man has understanding and wisdom.

But the tricky part is that not only are there many monks who are able to incite the people, but also some monks master chakra and ninjutsu.

Since the Warring States Period, there have been rebellious little ninjas who can't afford to play, and they have been joining this group.

Fortunately, the interior is not completely monolithic.

First, test their bottom line.

The majestic Buddha stands in the hall, eyes closed and eyebrows bowed. Under the Buddha statue, monks sit cross-legged on futons. Soldiers with guns enter the hall and read loudly.

"From now on, the monks are taxed, and the tax is ten and a half based on the head count. Each temple must pay land rent every year, and the monks regularly participate in corvee and military service."

"As a vendor in the General's territory, the Buddha still needs to pay operating fees, listing fees, and worship fees, which are calculated based on the Buddha's head."

"The above is the order of the General."

Fengxing put away the documents and looked at the leading monks.

"Everyone, here are the specific terms. I am busy with official duties, so I won't read them out in detail. Masters, please study them carefully."

As he spoke, he motioned to his subordinates to leave a copy of the terms and conditions.

The faces of all the monks were livid with anger, and their whole bodies were shaking.

This is no longer an obvious robbery, it is simply bullying.

However, he was bullied, so what could he do?

Against her?

If you think about it carefully, it seems like you can't win.

The host, who had always been kind and friendly, showed a kind smile on his face and said: "Master Shizong, this little monk already knows what the general means, I don't know."

"That's right." said Banto, who was responsible for Shinobi: "According to the time when the temple was established, past arrears need to be paid. Your Ginkaku Temple has a long history, it has been more than three hundred years. The general is kind-hearted, and it is only a small amount. Erase it and repay it as an integer of three hundred years."

A harsh curse word was stuck in my throat, and I couldn't get it out.

The monks' faces turned green and red, and veins popped up.

This is forcing us to die!

A **** grin appeared on Fan Tou's face. He had long been unhappy with the group of monks. He patted the saber on his waist and said, "Don't let the general down, everyone."

All the monks had awkward smiles on their faces.

After Fantou left with his troops, the monks couldn't wait to jump to their feet.

“She is forcing us to die!

Damn Konoha country ninja!

"A monk yelled angrily, and the solemn hall was no longer solemn.

"She is forcing us to die." Another monk said: "There is no reason and no way to kill us. We still have some weight among the people."

"Just rebel against her! Let's go shoulder to shoulder together! Call those untouchable believers! Let's see what she does!?"

"Are you an idiot!" said a monk, "Isn't this exactly what she wants! Stick your head out and let her chop it off!"

"Besides, does it really work?"

"Don't look at what she has given to the untouchables during this period, including various tax exemptions and benefits. Those people are now full of hope and confidence in the future. The untouchables can't wait to keep her at home and kowtow to her day and night. What will they do for her? Are we trying to lose our heads?"

"Damn it! They don't regard us as human beings at all! They are just untouchables, but when they come to us, they will bully others! Can we still have a good life in the future!?"

Designation is not having a good time.

The faces of all the monks were dark.

"Be patient and see what others plan to do."

"Now Konoha is gaining momentum. In this Ninja World War, the future of other countries is worrying. The most terrible thing is that we are under Konoha's nose and we don't have enough shadow to fight against Konoha."

Now we need someone with high enough prestige to step forward and take the lead.

If we were to lose, I would not be the main culprit, so it would be considered a fallback route.

so

"What will we do if it doesn't work out?"

What to do, serve it cold.

Just be honest and obedient.

If life is hard, just be hard. If you can't make it easy, treat it as hard work.

In another hundred or two hundred years, I will be a good man again.

"The poll tax is not important, the worst is layoffs." A monk said: "We raise too many people, and then reduce the income of the monks below, and it only costs a few dollars. There will always be a way. The key to the problem is , three hundred years of back payment.”

"We can't pay it!"

Sadly, I don’t seem to have that much money.

At this time, the host who had been carefully checking the terms said quietly.

"We have money, we can pay it."

But with this cut, the bottom is basically clear.

Over the past three hundred years, all the efforts of the past generations have come to nothing.

This is not an ordinary pain in the body.

But spending money to buy lives, overall, this business is not a loss!

Look at the group of people hanging outside. The money is gone and the people are gone.

"Great!" After hearing this, some monks breathed a sigh of relief and found a way out.

With his face twitching, the host said: "You can prepare to hand over the money first, but we must continue to wait and see the situation."

This is really hard to bear.

However, as long as the monastery remains, we can continue to accumulate wealth, and sooner or later we will be able to recover it all.

"Let the big guys get ready recently."

As he spoke, the host stood up and looked at the shining golden Buddha behind him.

"Amitabha."

After clasping his hands and bowing, he said.

"Have someone come and scrape the gold off the Buddha's body and smelt it into lumps."

The majestic Buddha has his eyes closed and his eyebrows lowered.

Not so angry that I jump.

The eyes of all the monks were red, and they shed a few tears, looking sad.

"What a sin!"

A monk stamped his feet sadly.

People have been laid off, so Buddha can also be optimized.
