Zhuge Wolong was indeed knowledgeable and talented, and even construction was involved. After hearing Cui Yunming talk about his plans, he calculated the labor, materials, money and grain needed clearly.

"In this case, it will take some time to start construction!" Cui Yunming said after calculating the entry of the Thunder God Temple in the past two days.

There is no need to worry about the expansion of the Thunder Temple. The people around are willing to come and help voluntarily, and Cui Yunming only needs to take care of a few meals.

But now is the busy farming season, and everyone is busy sowing seeds, and they have to wait until they are idle. Building and repairing houses in rural areas only begins during the slack season.

Moreover, although manual labor is free, you can buy bricks, tiles, wood, meat, vegetables and food. Cui Yunming's savings are not enough, and he still has to continue to accumulate incense money for a period of time.

Previously, Zhou Chunfu said that he was willing to spend money to help expand, but it doesn’t matter if he has some incense money. It’s hard to get big money. It’s better not to charge such money. Otherwise, what if he does something bad in the future?

However, the road up the mountain can start early. The original path was too simple, and not many people went up the mountain to worship before, which was enough. But recently, there are so many people every day, and they are overwhelmed and are not well-deserved.

It doesn’t cost much to build a road, and the current savings are enough. As for manpower, you can go to the county town to hire it. Once the road is repaired, it will be convenient for pilgrims to go up the mountain, and Cui Yunming can accumulate incense power faster.

He discussed with Zhuge Wolong and asked him to go to the city to find Ma Cheng tomorrow, and asked him to help introduce a few people, first investigate the route, then gather people, purchase materials to prepare for road construction, and continue to stay in the temple to take care of him.

After the discussion was completed, the two of them went back to their room to rest. Cui Yunming lay on the bed and entered the sea of ​​consciousness again. As expected, as he expected, the thunder pattern on General Punishing the Evil Thunder King's chest changed color, from blue to red.

In addition, the sea of ​​consciousness has listed the things the pilgrims ask for during the day. He can check them at any time. Some pray for good weather and some pray for punishment of evil and evil. Of course, like Zhou Chunfu, he had done something wrong before and prayed for forgiveness by Master Thunder.

Then let’s see if Zhou Chunfu has changed? With a thought, Cui Yunming drove Yang Shen out of his body and planned to travel at night to see if what the pilgrims said was true.

Zhou Chunfu's house is not far from here. He is now using the red thunder pattern divine power. The Yang God is becoming more and more condensed and the flight speed is also improved. It takes a moment to arrive at the Zhou family compound.

Zhou Chunfu's family is indeed rich this year. In addition to the residences of his family, tenants and servants, there are also granaries, cattle and horse sheds, and granaries full of cattle and horses in the shed, and the cattle and horses in the shed are fat and strong.

There was no entertainment at night at this time, so most people went to bed and rest at this time, but the Zhou family was different. They were all at this point, and the yard was still full of people.

There were torches around the front yard lighting. Zhou Chunfu stood in the middle of the yard, holding the account book and chanting, "Zhou Dawang, you paid the rent of three or six dou before, but now you are refunded by one or more dou. Go and get the food!"

"My lord and righteous! Thank you Mr. Zhou!" A man in his thirties quickly knelt down and saluted. With so much more food, their family's life this year would be much better.

"Don't thank me! I've told you so many times. It was Mr. Thunder God who asked me to do more good deeds. If you want to thank me, just thank Mr. Thunder God! Go to the Thunder God Temple tomorrow to burn a few more incense sticks. Do you remember?" Zhou Chunfu thought carefully. Since I want to change, I have to let Mr. Thunder God know.

"I remember, remember, I'll go to the Thunder Temple to eat incense tomorrow morning!" Zhou Dawang agreed repeatedly, then got up and happily carried the food home.

"Well, just remember it! Let me take a look. The next one is Zhou Shuisheng. Last year, your baby was sick and had no money to buy medicine, so he asked me to borrow one or two cents of silver. During the Chinese New Year, I paid me one or eight cents of gold, and there were still one or eight cents of gold that I had not paid back. Isn't it?" Zhou Chunfu called out another person's name again.

I had to pay back three or six cents if I borrowed one or two cents! It would triple in less than a year. This loan shark is really ruthless! The interest made Cui Yunming stunned!

In fact, in Nan'an County, every family lends so harshly, and the interest rate is not higher than this one. What they are greedy for is not this little money, but the land of the borrower's family. When they can't pay it back, they can force them to hand over the land.

"Yes, the master is right. Please give me some grace to you. I will definitely pay you back when the food is collected this year!" Zhou Shuisheng begged.

If Zhou Shuisheng hadn't had such a single seedling in his family, he would have been forced to do nothing. He wouldn't dare to ask Zhou Chunfu to borrow money no matter what he said.

"No need! I'll give you some interest!" Zhou Chunfu took the abacus and slap it a few times, "I'll change it to 20% of the profit. One or two cents will be borrowed for a year and it will be one or four cents. If you erase the fractions, you'll pay back one or four cents! Do you want copper coins or silver? If you want silver, I'll ask the housekeeper to weigh it and you'll count the copper coins!"

This was an unexpected surprise. Zhou Shuisheng originally thought that it would be good to delay repaying his debts for a while. Who would have thought that the person would directly reduce the interest and even ask for money for him.

So he knelt on the ground like Zhou Dawang and kowtowed, "Master, you are kind enough to reduce my interest. How can I still ask for your money!"

"Don't thank me. If you want to thank me, go and thank Master Thunder God!" Zhou Chunfu was helpless. I don't know how many times I said this today, but they just didn't listen!

He spoke too much today and really didn't have the energy to persuade him. He immediately ordered the housekeeper to count 400 copper coins for Zhou Shuisheng. Most farmers use copper coins and almost never use silver.

Zhou Shuisheng also left with great gratitude. He also made up his mind to go to incense early tomorrow morning and stuff all the four hundred copper coins into the merit box.

Zhou Chunfu continued to look through the account book and kept returning the excess money and grain. Cui Yunming was extremely happy when he looked at it from a high place. If every landlord in Nan'an County could do this, the people would have been much better.

With the distribution of money and food, the black patches on the clouds above Zhou Chunfu's head were slowly decreasing, and the evil things he had done in the past were also constantly whitewashing.

Cui Yunming left the Zhou family compound with a hint of relief and continued to check in other places. There were not only one or two people like Zhou Chunfu. Many landlords and wealthy families took the consequences of Song Weizhong and others, and they changed their past behavior and began to do good deeds.

Of course, some people are not willing to do good deeds and deeds, but they do not care about their hearts. As long as they do, the clouds above their heads will turn a little white.
