Lin Tai's mood turned for the better when he heard that. Furthermore, with Liu Ying around, it was impossible for him to disregard his decorum and act recklessly. He took a deep breath and repressed his anger. After glaring at Li He and Cui Jiandong, he cursed. "Scram! Don't compare me with a monk. Let's go. Let's follow them. Don't speak nonsense when you aren't confident. F * * k, I was slapped twice the moment I came up the mountain. How unlucky! How did this bastard renovate a crappy temple? I think he even expanded it … "
Li He and Cui Jiandong immediately agreed. They hated Fangzheng to the core. If not for the darn monk, would they have been so embarrassed in front of Lin Tai? They had to find an opportunity to smack him back! The duo secretly swore.
Just as they were about to leave, they suddenly realized that Lin Tai wasn't leaving. Instead, he took out his cell phone to make a call.
"Boss Lin, what are you doing?" Li He and Cui Jiandong asked, perplexed.
Lin Tai sneered. "Does Fangzheng think he can make a comeback just because he renovated the temple? I might not know about other things, but I do know that the new is inferior to the old. Even if someone is willing to pay for this crappy temple in a backwater village, it won't be a huge sum. This temple looks good, but the skin is skin, and the principles are different. It looks good, but the materials used … Hmph. In a while, a friend of mine who specializes in construction will be here. Fangzheng dares to smack my face? I'll dig out all his bones today! He has to pay the price for posturing in front of me. "
When Li He and Cui Jiandong heard that, they immediately went forward to suck up to him. They praised Cui Jiandong for being smart and impressive. He had instantly grasped Fangzheng's weakness.
From their point of view, Lin Tai was right. How could someone pay a high price to use ancient materials to build a temple in such a crappy place? They might not even be willing to use wood. It was common to paint reinforced concrete to pass it off as an ancient building. Even if it was made of wood, there were differences in quality. Good wood was worth a fortune. With Fangzheng's circumstances, there was no way he could afford it! Lin Tai called an expert and directly exposed Fangzheng's facade. That was the true meaning of smacking him in the face!
Lin Xi thought nothing of it. All she felt was that the monk was getting more and more interesting. He clearly hadn't done anything, but he had beaten Lin Tai and company, who had done a lot, into silence. she was burning with anger, but she had to bear with it! It was her first time seeing Lin Tai being humiliated like that. Upon hearing her brother's sudden move, she felt a little worried for Fangzheng. She had her own scale. As a bystander, she naturally knew that Fangzheng was innocent and had been implicated. He had indeed not done anything …
Up ahead, Liu Ying chased up to Fangzheng. She said with mixed emotions and a hint of accusation, "Fangzheng, why didn't you explain earlier? This made things so awkward … Do you have to do this to us as classmates? Slapping them in the face won't do you any good. "
Fangzheng frowned when he heard that. He had received these students on the account of them being his classmates, and also on account of the meal he had with Liu Ying years ago. Otherwise, Fangzheng wouldn't have bothered with them based on their performance. He would have closed the door and refused to entertain them! Moreover, he was the one being mocked along the way, not the other way around. If they really cared about their feelings, did they?
Fangzheng had not argued or shouted, but in the end, they had been smacked in the face by his own words. They even blamed him! He was pissed!
Fangzheng stopped and looked at Liu Ying. He said with a faint smile, "Patron, did you give This Penniless Monk a chance to speak along the way?"
Liu Ying was instantly taken aback.
Fangzheng no longer looked at Liu Ying as he turned to walk back to the monastery. As he walked, he said, "People always like to find faults in others. Even if they don't have one, they will still give them one. But they never look at themselves. What has it got to do with This Penniless Monk?"
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words and looking at his back, Liu Ying felt a little dazed. Was this still the Fangzheng from years ago? In the past, Fangzheng did not have any presence, but now, he exuded a radiant aura. Especially now, his eyes and bearing made him seem like a god. He was high and mighty, as though he was in a different world from them.
Liu Ying did not know that Fangzheng was a person who would return the favor tenfold if you respected him. The better you were to him, the better he would be to you. On the contrary, if you didn't treat him well … Sorry, This Penniless Monk is a monk. This Penniless Monk wants to become Buddha. Who the f * * k are you?
Liu Ying shook her head. After taking a glance at One Finger Monastery, she thought, "Although this monastery has been renovated, it's far inferior to those large monasteries or thousand-year-old temples, be it in terms of scale or heritage. Just this bit of achievement is enough for you to be as arrogant as a god. If you were given a large monastery, wouldn't you be flying into the sky? A frog at the bottom of a well doesn't know how big the world is. Indulging in self-admiration is ultimately a mistake. If you could humbly sit down and have a good chat with Lin Tai, wouldn't it be great if Lin Tai was in a good mood to expand your monastery and advertise it? Such nonchalant arrogance is just too childish. "
With this in mind, Liu Ying did not wish to pursue Fangzheng. From her point of view, Fangzheng was too short-sighted and arrogant. She did not wish to interact with such a person. After today, she planned on blacklisting Fangzheng and going their separate ways.
"Sis Liu Ying, come over quickly." At that moment, Lin Xi called out to Liu Ying.
Liu Ying nodded and walked over.
Lin Tai wanted to wait for his expert friend, so he wasn't in a rush to head to the monastery. Instead, he waited in his spot. When Lin Xi saw this, all she could do was pull Liu Ying to the side to enjoy the scenery and have a chat.
Before long, a capable looking man arrived at the mountaintop. The moment he saw Lin Tai, he gave him a bear hug.
His name was Song Tianqiao, a good friend of Lin Tai's. He had worked with Lin Tai's company several times and designed several real estate projects. At the same time, Song Tianqiao was also one of Lin Xi's pursuers. The moment he heard that Lin Xi was on the mountaintop, he immediately ran over. Therefore, although he hugged Lin Tai, he would glance at Lin Xi from time to time.
Lin Xi blushed from his gaze. Song Tianqiao was an intellectual man. He was mature, steady, and generous. The bearing he exuded was indeed very attractive to a young girl like Lin Xi.
"Lin Xi, come over quickly. Your Brother Song is here." Lin Tai beckoned.
Lin Xi had no choice but to lean over and say, "Brother Song."
"Lin Xi, how long has it been since we last met? You have become prettier again." Song Tianqiao's eyes lit up as he said with a smile.
Lin Xi tersely acknowledged before running to Liu Ying. Although she had a good impression of Song Tianqiao, the way he looked at her made her uncomfortable. …
Song Tianqiao seemed used to it and didn't mind. He began chatting with Lin Tai.
Lin Tai explained his intentions as Song Tianqiao roared with laughter. He patted him on the shoulder confidently and said, "Lin Tai, you have found the right person this time. I've done some research on monasteries, especially ancient ones. Every brick and tile, every bell and tower. I can tell at a glance if it's an antique or not. I can tell if it's genuine! At a glance, every brick and tile of this monastery looks very new. It should be newly built. Typically, the construction of monasteries has to go through certain procedures. Furthermore, it has to be designed by a professional team. If they found someone to design it, it's impossible for me to not know. After all, the circle is only that big. If I don't know, it means that they took an unorthodox path. There's no need to talk about unorthodox methods. The craftsmanship is poor, the materials are poor, and the things they produce are unsightly! There's no historical value or craftsmanship value. I don't even need to look to know that such buildings are worthless! "
