17. Smash with money
Wang Bo remembers that he once wrote this in Journey to the West.
When Tang Seng and Sun Wukong passed by Gao Laozhuang, they accepted the request of Gao Qianzhu, and would help him subdue Zhu Bajie and rescue Gao Cuilan from Zhu Bajie's claws.
Sun Wukong thought that with his own ability, subduing a pig demon was simply effortless, so he came to Yunzhan Cave and prepared to teach Bajie a lesson so that he could know the power of the Monkey King.
In the original work, he said: "The two of them fought until they turned white from the second update."
In other words, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie fought for a night but still failed to defeat him. From this, it can be seen that Zhu Bajie is definitely not an ordinary person, otherwise he would have been defeated by Sun Dasheng.
In fact, Zhu Bajie was very smart. He knew that following Tang Seng to seek scriptures was the arrangement of Tathagata, and he didn't have to work too hard.
Just hand over the monsters on the way to the senior brother, and wait for the Buddha to reward them after obtaining the scriptures.
Therefore, when encountering monsters and monsters, Zhu Bajie will ask his senior brother to come on.
At most, he acts as an assistant or watches the game next to him. Even if Tang Seng is captured by the monster, he is not in a hurry, because no monster dares to really eat his master.
All of this was planned by Tathagata, and Bajie saw it very thoroughly.
Over time, Zhu Bajie became a lazy and mediocre person in the eyes of everyone.
What’s even more interesting is that before the battle with Bajie, Sun Wukong first used his magic power to become his wife Gao Cuilan, and then said to Bajie: “Gaocai, please ask the mage to bring you.”
Bajie laughed and said, "I have changed the Tiangang number, and the Nine-Toothed Palladium. What kind of mage, monk, or Taoist priest are you afraid of? Even if you are devout, please come down to the Nine Heavens Demon Ancestor to the Realm. I have met him, and he dare not do anything to me."
The Nine Heavens Demon Ancestor is the Zhenwu Emperor who guards the North Heaven Gate.
When Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the sky, one of the subordinates of Emperor Zhenwu could tie with Sun Wukong. If Emperor Zhenwu took action, he would probably kill Sun Wukong in minutes.
Even if these words are bragging, it is enough to show Zhu Bajie's confidence in his own strength.
The thirty-six changes of Tiangang practiced by Zhu Bajie, in terms of changes and mystery, are even more important than the seventy-two changes of the Earth Evil.
From this we can see that Zhu Bajie is definitely a guy who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger.
Therefore, Sun Wukong said that he could travel fifty times a day from Chang'an to Tianzhu, which was not bragging.
Because of his ability, Sun Wukong knows very well.
But if Zhu Bajie takes ten days to travel from Chang'an to Tianzhu, it will be very watery.
This is because Zhu Bajie is hiding too deeply, so Sun Wukong's words are likely to be a connotation of Zhu Bajie's daily performance.
Instead of what he said after he had learned about Zhu Bajie's strength seriously.
It can be seen from this that Zhu Bajie's speed is not that slow.
Moreover, there is a magic spell in the Thirty-Six Transformations of Tiangang, called the Golden Light of the Earth.
This spell can turn itself into golden light, which can be transformed into thousands of miles in a flash. Everyone knows the speed of this light. Even if the golden light cannot fly at the speed of light, it will not be far behind.
It can be seen from this that Zhu Bajie's speed is quite fast.
It is absolutely impossible to arrive in India in ten days.
As for Sha Seng, his performance in Journey to the West was not outstanding, he had few opportunities to perform, and his strength was difficult to figure out. As for how fast he was, Wang Bo was not very clear.
But Wang Bo guessed that it would definitely not be too bad.
I guess everyone can fly supersonically.
As for how many times the speed of sound, Wang Bo is not very clear about it.
However, since Bai Suzhen can fly at ten times the speed of sound, these gods and demons will definitely not be much worse.
Even those immortals who are not good at flying skills will not be worse than Wang Bo.
...
After Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing, Wang Bo and his group arrived in Hangzhou, they lived in Qiantang County. In order to accumulate merit, Bai Suzhen originally planned to open a medicine hall like the original work.
However, Wang Bo stopped him.
"It's good to save the world, but this comes too slowly, so we should think of a faster way."
"Then what method do you have?" Bai Suzhen asked.
Wang Bo smiled and said, "I'll test you. People's life cannot be separated from four words. Do you know those four words?"
"Four words?" Xiaoqing rubbed his head, and a flash of inspiration, "I understand, it's about eating, drinking, urinating, and sleeping."
Wang Bo said with a black line: "That's five words."
"That is to eat, drink, defecate, or eat, drink, gamble."
Bai Suzhen shook her head helplessly and said, "Xiaoqing, you only said one of the four words you are right. These four words are the four words of food, clothing, housing and transportation."
Wang Bo snapped his fingers and said, "That's right, Sister Bai is right. People will never be able to live without these four, so we start with these four words."
Bai Suzhen asked, "Then how can we start?"
Wang Bo said: "Of course, it is to open a chain hotel, a textile factory, and a fleet. If my sister still wants to, she can also open a chain medicine hall."
Xiaoqing suddenly realized and said, "So, don't we want to be businessmen? Isn't this too cheap?"
Wang Bo knew very well that Xiaoqing’s inferiority was not about being unpredictable, but about having a low status.
In ancient times, people's status was clearly divided.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.
The scholars were the first, followed by the name of the farm, then the worker, and finally the merchants. The status of the merchants was definitely not high in ancient times.
Businessmen also understand this, so rich merchants often choose to collude with officials and businessmen and put a layer of skin on themselves. Only in this way can they survive in this cannibal society.
It is precisely because this hierarchy is deeply rooted in people's hearts that even Xiaoqing looks down on businessmen.
However, Wang Bo didn't care, "Don't forget our purpose. The process is actually not important, what is important is our purpose."
Bai Suzhen nodded and said, "Yes, I'm right, the result is very important. What's more, we are doing business with integrity and will not harm the people, so we naturally don't have to care about the identity of a businessman."
Xiaoqing said, "Okay, okay, what you said is right, I can't tell you, you can do whatever you want, anyway, I'll just listen to you."
So everyone had been discussing and would definitely open a hotel first.
But now you can't use the word "hotel" but the inn.
As for how to build an inn, it is very simple, spend money.
As for where the three of them got the money... Wang Bo chose a few exquisite glasses in the RV, then went to the pawnshop for a walk around, and then sold a very high price.
After all, in ancient times, glass was more valuable than imagined.
