Chapter 538 Do you know Ou Manli?

During the first lunar month, there will be many various food stalls near Lingguan Temple.

Those selling sugar paintings, those selling pot helmets, those selling oil grids, those selling candied haws, and even those selling noodles and rice noodles.

However, if we really count, the stalls selling the most incense and paper money are actually the ones selling the most.

After all, believe it or not, most of the people who come to Lingguan Temple during the first month will buy some incense, candles, paper money and so on.

The Chen family is no exception. Even because of the large number of people here, the Chen family bought a lot of paper money for incense candles today.

Chen Li was holding a large bag of incense candles in his hand, but his face looked a little unhappy.

The reason for his unhappiness was the junior high school classmate following him.

To be honest, Chen Li was a little annoyed with this guy at the moment.

He felt that if this guy even winked, his impatience could be seen.

Even if this guy knew some manners, he wouldn't choose to chat with him at this time.

"ah?"

Later, after the domestic collecting craze was stirred up, some people in Erlong Town spread the news. Anyway, the news was quite impressive.

Sure enough~ Liu Qingqing directly answered Chen Li with what Chen Li had just said, but Chen Li couldn't refute it.

After all, Lingguan Temple is right there and everyone can go and burn incense.

In fact, after Chen Li said this, he regretted it, because he had basically guessed how Liu Qingqing would answer.

Because of the words Ou Manli, many people in Erlong Town and even several surrounding towns suffered huge economic losses.

Everyone finished lighting the incense and candles on the incense burner, and then did not leave directly because Chen Li's mother, second aunt, and second mother had to go to the main hall of Lingguan Temple to burn incense.

The Chen family came here to burn incense and make wishes, so they did not buy toilet paper but incense candles.

"That's right~ I have an opportunity here."

It is said that there used to be a big bell in Lingguan Temple, and that thing can indeed be regarded as a real cultural relic. But it is said that when Lingguan Temple was renovated, a boss from Huilong County donated a sum of money to Lingguan Temple.

, and then took the bell away.

There are no Taoist monks or other monks in the temple. It is actually a cultural relic protection unit, and there are only two staff members responsible for managing this Lingguan Temple.

As for the renovated Lingguan Temple, everything from the Lingguan statue to all other utensils were actually renovated later.

"Hmm~ I'm going to burn incense. We'll talk about this later when we have time."

Entering from the temple gate, directly in front is the original Lingguan Temple main hall. This main hall is also the only remaining building from the original.

"I can pay for the fare for you!"

Tang Bo looked up at the door of Lingguan Temple and nodded quickly.

Well, Chen Li's mother and the others only gave me five yuan.

In the year 2000, China had a population of more than one billion, and there were not many people in the country with a monthly income of more than one million.

Moreover, the other party gave Chen Li a feeling, as if Tang Bo could easily earn a million in a month.

"You can't say it~it won't work if you say it!"

In fact, Tang Bo was not brainless~ He could still see that Chen Li didn't seem to be interested in what he said before, so this time he almost expressed his thoughts at a rapid speed.

"not that much!"

Moreover, Chen Li's sentence "not that much" just now was obviously perfunctory and self-effacing.

Chen Li never expected that he would hear these three words from his junior high school classmate.

Especially since this situation has not reached such a serious level, if Chen Li chooses to fall out with the other party because of this, it may give people the impression that Chen Li is a little arrogant now that he is developed.

However, people who are willing to go to the main hall to burn incense will not be given 10 or 20 cents. Even in 2000, people who entered the hall were usually given only 5 yuan.

"So I think it's very wise for you to drop out of school."

However, there is nothing strange about this. In fact, except for those who specifically pray for something, most people do not make just one wish.

But what surprised Chen Li was that Tang Bo was still waiting for him here.

Even though Chen Li didn't believe this on weekdays, when he actually entered the Lingguan Temple, he still honestly burned incense and made a wish.

As a reborn person, he never gets a chance!

Chen Li was naturally too lazy to talk about business with Tang Bo. To be honest, no matter whether the business of Tang Bo's boss was really what he said, who was Chen Li? He was a reborn person.

Fortunately, there were many people in Chen Li's family. Chen Li, his old man, and his second father and second uncle protected everyone to the incense burner.

"Is it the KFC kind? I know this. I eat it often in Shencheng."

Anyone with some brains would probably not follow this sentence to find out what the truth is, but Tang Bo just picked up the conversation.

But for many people in Erlong Town in their previous life around 2002, this name had a considerable impact.

"Otherwise, after the New Year, you can go there with me to find out more."

However, Tang Bo seemed to be very talkative. He didn't even wait for Chen Li to answer, but continued talking on his own.

"I'm telling you, this opportunity is very rare. I just don't have that much capital, but"

To be fair~ This caught Chen Li off guard, and he didn't even know how to continue chatting with Tang Bo.

"It's okay~it's okay!"

"Huh? No, just wait!"

Of course, Chen Li might not ask so straightforwardly, nor would he choose to ask on such an occasion.

"I didn't expect~Chen Li, you are so good at business?"

Yes~ Chen Li doesn't want to show his serious side in front of his family.

After all, Chen Li was accompanied by a large group of family members and even his girlfriend, and they were going to Lingguan Temple to burn incense, so they had something to do.

"The profits in your industry seem to be a bit low."

Tang Bo gave an explanation, but the strength of this explanation still seemed a bit ridiculous.

In fact, if Tang Bo hadn't mentioned Ou Manli, Chen Li wouldn't have even thought of it.

This is also one of the reasons why Chen Li is reluctant to come to Lingguan Temple during the first month of the year, because there are too many people.

He seriously doubted that Tang Bo had something wrong with his brain.

Because the Chen family in the previous life did not suffer any losses from this incident, but Chen Li's aunt's family lost a large amount of money due to Ou Manli's incident in the previous life.

Of course, although Chen Li felt that Tang Bo was a bit unsightly, he couldn't just drive him away.

Chen Li was speechless at that time!

"When I was in junior high school, I felt that you would definitely be able to succeed in the future."

"The fact that you dropped out of school is actually very smart in my opinion."

At this moment, Tang Bo saw that Chen Li suddenly stopped talking. He thought that Chen Li had heard of Ou Manli's name or was interested in Ou Manli, so he quickly struck while the iron was hot and said:

"Chen Li~ Let me tell you, this opportunity is really rare."

There is no way~ The functions of this Lingguan Temple are a bit complicated, including making wishes, praying, and even offering sacrifices to ancestors.

Even if they are acquaintances or friends, the most they can do is say hello and wish each other Happy New Year and so on.

Well, there is no way~ The entire Lingguan Temple actually has only one entrance and exit.

"I heard that you opened one or two hundred stores~ Then you probably make at least one million a month, right?"

Tang Bo's tone was filled with surprise~ It seemed as if Chen Li could not earn one million a month, so opening so many stores was in vain.

With Tang Bo's personality, if he could really make millions a month, he would probably be able to blow himself up to the sky.

This costs money!

Anyone who enters the main hall to offer incense must put a certain amount of incense money into the merit box at the entrance of the main hall.

Ou Manli~ These three words may be unfamiliar to most people.

Chen Li shook his head~ but the expression on his face was clearly telling Liu Qingqing that the wish he made was related to the other party.

Although it is said to be a cultural relic protection unit, everyone in Erlong Town knows that this Lingguan Temple actually does not have any cultural relics.

"I heard that you are now in the fried chicken business?"

This incense money is considered to be the only income of Lingguan Temple at present, because these days Lingguan Temple does not charge entrance fees, nor does it sell incense and candle paper money to the outside world.

In fact, Chen Li guessed that most of Liu Qingqing's wishes were related to herself, otherwise she would not question herself as soon as she made her wish.

Hmm~ Actually, in Chen Li's opinion, this thing shouldn't be called an incense burner, but that's what it is anyway!

"Actually, what is the purpose of studying? Isn't it just to lay the foundation for a good future in the future?"

"Oh~ Okay, then I won't ask."

"And~this"
