Chapter 164: Promoting Sanqing Mountain and Taoist Temples
Xie Lan had never eaten spiritual rice since he left Sanqing Mountain. When the porridge was ready, he happily ate three bowls of it.
Of course, after eating, you have to start working.
"Dear uncles, aunties, although this is a rice and grain store, what we sell is not ordinary rice and flour."
Some people didn't take it seriously, "It's not ordinary rice and flour. Could it be that what you are selling is tribute rice?"
The new store is opening, and with the attitude that harmony brings wealth, Xie Lan said with a smile.
“Although what I sell is not tribute rice, it is not inferior to tribute rice at all.
In addition to rice, my shop also sells tea, fungus, mushrooms and other mountain products, all of which are produced in Sanqing Mountain. I specially hired a team to transport them all the way to Beijing. "
"Sanqing Mountain, what is this place? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Xie Lan was cheered up. Although she opened this shop to sell Sanqing rice, her main purpose was to promote Sanqing Mountain and Sanqing Temple. Today was the best opportunity.
"Sanqing Mountain has a history of thousands of years. It is known as the world's number one fairy peak and the world's unparalleled blessed land.
It is "dangerous in the east, strange in the west, unique in the south, and beautiful in the north." The strange peaks and rocks, the clouds and mist Buddha light, the ancient pines and trees, the canyon caves, the streams and waterfalls are all unique and lifelike.
Among them, the strange peaks, ancient pines, roaring clouds, colorful waterfalls and divine lights are the most unique.
The most famous peaks in Sanqing Mountain are Yujing Peak, Yuxu Peak and Yuhua Peak.
Because these three peaks are like the Taoist three immortals of Yuqing, Shangqing and Taiqing sitting among the peaks, they are named Sanqing Mountain.
In addition, there are many scenic spots on Mount Sanqing, such as the Oriental Goddess, the giant python coming out of the mountain, the Monkey King presenting treasures, the happy jade girl, the old Taoist worshiping the moon, Guanyin enjoying music, Ge Hong presenting elixir, the dragon playing with pine trees, three dragons going out to sea, and the Pulao singing to the sky.
The scenery on the mountain is beautiful all year round, with blooming flowers in spring and flowing springs and waterfalls in summer.
In the dog days of summer, the sun is shaded by thick trees, making the weather cool and pleasant. Around mid-autumn, thousands of peaks compete for beauty and the forests are dyed with colors.
The severe cold of the 39th day of the lunar calendar makes the place look like a fairyland made of glass. Anyone who has been there will be reluctant to leave.
Sanqing Mountain is also a famous Taoist mountain, and there is a Sanqing Temple on the mountain.
And I grew up in Sanqing Temple.
My family sent me to Sanqing Mountain for foster care as soon as I was born. I had no wet nurse to take care of me and my body was extremely weak.
If my master hadn't fed me with the magical rice grown on Mount Sanqing, I would have died long ago, and you wouldn't be able to see me standing here alive today."
When Xie Lan said this, a woman in the crowd was touched. The woman gave birth to a son half a year ago. Because it was a premature birth, his health has been poor. Now that the son is half a year old, he looks thinner than a three-month-old baby.
She and her husband hired many doctors to treat the child, but there was no improvement after trying many methods.
"Girl, have you really grown up eating that Sanqingling rice? Is that rice very nutritious?"
Xie Lan laughed when he heard it.
"I never lie. I did grow up eating Sanqing rice. Not only is the scenery of Sanqing Mountain beautiful, but the soil and water on the mountain are also better than other places.
And with the blessing of our Taoist temple's founder, every blade of grass and tree on the mountain grows better than anywhere else.
Especially the Sanqingling rice produced in the mountains is blessed by nature.
In addition, my master and uncle have set up a formation for the spiritual rice they grow, so the spiritual rice they produce is not comparable to ordinary rice. If you eat it all year round, it will be extremely beneficial to your body.
Especially for the elderly, as well as women and children with weak bodies, if they can keep eating it, they can not only keep their bodies healthy, but also cure some minor illnesses. "
"Little girl, don't brag, do you? I'm old, and I've never heard of any rice that can cure diseases. You're bragging like this, aren't you thinking of selling ordinary rice at a high price?"
"Little girl, you should be down-to-earth when doing business. Don't try to deceive your customers. This is the emperor's place, and no one is stupid.
Even if someone is fooled once and buys your rice and finds that it doesn’t have the effects you said, they will never come back to buy it a second time.”
"That's right. If you run into someone with a bad temper and find out that you've been fooled, they might even smash your store."
Xie Lan looked at the people talking at once without getting annoyed, and continued to smile.
"To be honest, my Sanqingling rice is indeed very expensive. Each catty is sold for three taels of silver."
Before Xie Lan could finish her words, someone interrupted her angrily, "Three taels per catty? Why don't you go and rob? You are such a dark-hearted girl. You are even more conscienceless than a profiteer." The price was indeed not low, so it was normal for some people not to understand.
Xie Lan looked at the cursing uncle with a good temper, "The reason why my spiritual rice is expensive is because it starts from soaking seeds, germination, seedling cultivation, transplanting, growing and harvesting.
During each process, my master and a group of senior masters would set up formations to ensure that the spiritual rice they grew was more nutritious than ordinary rice.
The planting, fertilizing, weeding, harvesting, drying and shelling of the Lingmi also require hiring long-term workers to help, and they need to be paid.
Furthermore, I have to hire a fleet of vehicles to transport the goods all the way to Beijing, which also costs a lot of money.
Calculated in this way, it will cost a lot.
If the price of spiritual rice is too low, won’t I lose a lot of money?”
Some people think that what Xie Lan said makes sense. The purpose of opening this store is to make money, not to open a charity. You can't let the girl lose money to gain publicity.
Seeing everyone's expressions eased, Xie Lan said, "The most important thing is that my Sanqing Lingmi can nourish the body and treat some minor illnesses.
Think about it, if eating porridge can cure the disease, isn’t it better than taking medicine?"
That’s true. If eating can cure the disease, who would be willing to take medicine?
Even though Xie Lan said so much, some people still doubted, "Can your Sanqing Mountain magical rice really cure diseases?"
Xie Lan glanced at the man who was speaking and said with a smile, "Whether it can really cure the disease, you will know if you try it.
Uncle, do you have a dull pain in your stomach now? My shop is open today, and I cooked some rice and porridge for everyone to try. Uncle, you can eat half a bowl. I guarantee that if you eat it, your stomach pain will go away. "
"And this big brother, do you often fart loudly and smelly? Go eat half a bowl of spiritual rice porridge, and you won't fart those stinky farts that can kill you."
"Auntie, do you often have no appetite? Go and have half a bowl of porridge. I guarantee you will want to try it again after you taste it."
Xie Lan asked the waiter to cook so much rice and porridge just for people to taste.
I simply invited a dozen people with minor health problems to try the food.
These people were originally attracted by the aroma of the food. Although they felt a little embarrassed when Xie Lan pointed out their minor physical problems, they couldn't help but be tempted when they heard that they could taste the food for free.
After eating half a bowl of rice, someone soon shouted in surprise.
"Hey, my stomach really doesn't hurt anymore."
"It's amazing! My farts don't smell or make noise anymore."
"Girl, give me ten kilograms of spiritual rice."
"I want fifty kilograms."
"Here are five hundred taels. Buy one hundred kilograms of spiritual rice. Also give me some bamboo shoots, mushrooms, fungus, and spiritual tea."
As more and more people tasted the rice and porridge, people who were watching outside the store rushed into the store and started buying them.
Xie Lan smiled so happily as if she saw countless gold and silver rolling into her pocket.
