Entertainment: Succubus Monk, Starter Tornado Boy

Chapter 119

The New York branch of Shaolin Temple is really too small, only about 100 square meters in total.

It seems very big, but it is divided into three areas, the bathroom area, the practice area, and the office area.

The bathroom is not big, only a few square meters.

The practice area is the largest, almost sixty or seventy square meters, but it can only accommodate a dozen people to meditate and practice here at most. The office area at the back is only a dozen square meters.

But it was filled with various Buddhist scriptures, many of which were copies brought by Brother Guolin from the Shaolin Temple in China. They were densely packed, with almost thousands of them.

Overall, it's a bit small, but it's still the same thing.

Because the office was filled with Buddhist scriptures, everyone couldn’t sit down, so they sat together in the practice area.

Fortunately, the people present were all monks, and they were used to sitting on futons. No one had any complaints. I just felt that the Shaolin Temple in New York sounded like a big name, but it felt like it was just fake.

"Uncle Xuannan, I wonder how the abbot is doing?"

"He is very healthy. I called him before coming here, and he asked me to tell you that since you have chosen this arduous missionary path, you must persevere to the end and be rewarded after all the hardships."

"Let the abbot and the old man worry about it."

Brother Guolin was a little choked up. When he was in the Shaolin Temple, he was the captain of the Shaolin Wushu Troupe. Since 1985, he has led the team to tour around the world. If he continues to stay in the Shaolin Temple, his future will definitely be unlimited.

But Guolin still can't stop him. With the temptation in his heart, Guolin finally came to New York, USA, with the encouragement of the Religious Administration and the Buddhist Association, preparing to promote Shaolin Kung Fu here and at the same time build the West Shaolin Temple in New York. The reason why the people above did this was mainly because of the At that time, Shaolin culture spread widely, and Shaolin Kung Fu spread to the world along with Hong Kong martial arts movies. The

Shaolin Wushu Troupe’s five or six years of global tours also accumulated a huge number of Kung Fu fans from all over the world.

So, I thought Let Guolin establish a branch of the Shaolin Temple in New York. This will not only spread Chinese culture, but also increase Americans' awareness of China.

After all, before this, the Chinese people promoted by the Americans had a very vicious image.

Cultural offensive There is no time to delay. If we follow the normal cultural propaganda route, those high-level officials in the United States will definitely be wary. But if it is just Shaolin Kung Fu and Buddhist belief, then it is dispensable.

What age is it? No matter how advanced the Kung Fu is, it can only be done with one shot. Knock down

"Guolin, you are now the director of the New York Shaolin Temple, and you must shoulder the important responsibility of the New York Shaolin Temple and truly establish the Shaolin Temple in New York."

Uncle Xuannan comforted Guolin a few words, which made him feel a lot better.

After all, in the past, what Senior Brother Guolin did was to betray the temple and run away.

Just as everyone was chatting, Guolin suddenly noticed that he had taken off his mask. Yichen.

I saw that he was much more handsome than he was a few years ago.

The shape of the bald little monk, let alone a woman, even him, a monk, looked cute and handsome.

This reminded Guo Lin of Looking at the past events many years ago, I couldn't help but chuckle and said:"Yichen, you must remember to wear a mask when you go out. Don't be like when you were on the mountain and be surrounded by female lay practitioners."

"Hahaha~"

The surrounding monks from Shaolin burst into laughter, and Senior Brother Yongxin even said cheerfully:"Guolin, you don't know, when I was at the Baolian Temple in Xiangjiang before, Yichen appeared once. He was surrounded by many female lay people. Fortunately, he learned wisely and slipped away immediately. Lin

Chen smiled awkwardly. He didn’t want to be like this, but the intuitive feeling brought by the joyful Buddha’s image to the woman was too strong.

That is to say, Lin Chen has been practicing Buddhism all year round and never fails to do his homework every day. This is why Lin Chen The Buddha nature is gradually neutralized by joy.

The woman will not chase after him like a fanatical believer after seeing him for the first time.

But if she comes into close contact, it is still easy to affect her.

This point, in Lin Chen, who has stayed in Xiangjiang for almost two months, is the most experienced.

"By the way, speaking of Po Lin Monastery, Uncle Master, will their consecration ceremony of the Temple of Heaven Buddha be held soon?"

The Tian Tan Buddha, as the world's first and largest outdoor statue of Sakyamuni Buddha made of bronze, can be regarded as a grand event among different sects of Buddhism around the world.

Brother Guolin, who is far away in the United States, often comes from the United States. From the mouths of fellow Buddhists, I heard about the consecration of the Giant Buddha in the Temple of Heaven

"Well, on the 8th of next month, on the day when our Buddha, Tathagata, becomes enlightened, the consecration ceremony of the Tian Tan Buddha will be held.."

December 8th is the day when Sakyamuni Tathagata became enlightened.

The wise monk of Po Lin Monastery specially chose this day, so even though the Tian Tan Buddha has been built for several months, he still did not open the gate so that tourists can freely go up the mountain to worship the Buddha.

I just want the restrictions to be lifted after the consecration ceremony is over.

"That's great~" A trace of envy flashed in Senior Brother Guolin's eyes. He actually really wanted to be the abbot of a big temple, instead of living in a bungalow in a busy city where the temple is not a temple and the temple is not a temple.

"But speaking of it, Yichen, is your temple under construction?"

Brother Yongxin suddenly looked at Lin Chen. He had been staying on Hong Kong Island and naturally saw the newspaper saying that the chairman of Huamao Group built the Xishan Temple in Xigaoshan for the living Buddha.

"What?!

Guolin said in surprise:"Yichen, have you built a temple?""

"Yes, Senior Brother Guolin. Lin Chen nodded and said:"Master Abbot has agreed for me to go down the mountain and set up a mountain gate in Xiangjiang to promote Buddhism.""

"This..."

Senior Brother Guolin was shocked. He never expected that Yichen, who is only ten years old this year, would already have a temple.

And according to Senior Brother Yongxin, it doesn't seem to be a small temple.

"Guolin, you don't know that Yichen has fucked those masters in the past two months since he went to Hong Kong Island."

Senior Brother Yongxin was still preparing to talk about Lin Chen's glorious deeds and how he was worshiped as the Living Buddha of Xiangjiang. But at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Hearing the knock on the door, Guo Lin immediately arranged for him to be collected in the United States. The disciple went to open the door.

Lin Chen also took advantage of this and breathed a sigh of relief. He was not afraid that Senior Brother Yongxin would tell his story. After all, it was not something shameful. He was just worried that Senior Brother Guolin’s heart would not be able to bear it.

"Abbot, it’s Elder Chen who is here."Disciple quickly ran to Senior Brother Guolin's side.

"Is Mr. Chen here?! I'll pick it up myself."

Senior Brother Guolin stood up immediately, said sorry to Senior Brother Xuannan, and immediately ran out.

There is no way, most temples are not engaged in production, let alone in a foreign country. Even if he wants to farm to support himself, Guolin can't afford it. Land in New York.

Therefore, in addition to part of the domestic subsidies for the New York Shaolin Temple's expenses, the bulk actually relies on the sesame oil money provided by believers living around here.

And this old layman Chen can be said to be the most active in contributing money. , is also the person who believes in Buddhism the most.

According to his own words, when he was in China in his early years, he was displaced due to the war. Later, he came to a temple. He was really thirsty and hungry. He entered the temple hoping to pray for help. A sip of water.

Unexpectedly, the old monk in the temple not only gave him water to drink, but also gave him a bowl of rice. Before leaving, he also gave him a few large noodles and a bag of water to eat and drink along the way.

Just rely on With these large cakes and water, the old layman Chen could successfully escape to Yangcheng at that time, then went to Xiangjiang, and then came to the United States.

Relying on his good cooking skills, he cooked little by little Da, has now become the owner of the largest Chinese restaurant on this street.

After Brother Guolin led Old Practitioner Chen in, he introduced:"Old Practitioner Chen, let me introduce to you, this is the elder Xuan of our Shaolin Temple. Master Nan is also the junior disciple of Abbot Xuanci. When he heard that it was the abbot's junior brother, the 60-year-old layman Chen, he immediately clasped his hands and said:"Amitabha, I didn't expect that the person here today is Shaolin Master Xuannan. I have admired you for a long time.""

"Amitabha, Mr. Chen is so polite."

Master Xuannan also saw at this time that this old layman Chen probably had the most money for offering sesame oil in the Shaolin Temple in New York, and he talked with him very enthusiastically.

The Shaolin Temple in New York was so miserable that Xuannan was ready to take it. I gave some money to Guolin.

It is rare for a devout believer to be willing to provide some sesame oil money to help, so naturally he must be treated well.

…………

This way.

While Lin Chen was bored and accompanying Master Xuannan to socialize with others.

On the other side, Qingxia has already moved into the hotel with her tax avoidance team.

"Manager Lin, we have communicated with the lawyers and professional accounting team here in the United States."

"They said that if we leave it to them, we can guarantee that our foundation will eventually receive no less than US$190 million in cash."

"But the foundation must beCome to the United States so that they can better avoid taxes legally."Zhou

Shengnan, who was responsible for coming to the United States to participate in the prize redemption, talked to Qingxia very seriously about the plans of the accounting firms and lawyers in the United States.

The laws in Xiangjiang are still different from those in the United States, and the tax avoidance methods are also different.

So. This time, Zhou Shengnan also specifically contacted Deloitte, one of the four major accounting firms in the United States.

Qingxia frowned and said,"What if the foundation is not transferred?"

"Without the transfer, they said they could get up to $170 million in cash."

It's a full 20 million US dollars less.

This made Qingxia frown, hesitated for a moment, and asked:"Why is the gap so big?"

"Mainly because the United States has local tax protection laws, as well as corporate tax and personal tax received by overseas companies and individuals in the United States. Although we are a charitable organization, this money is not a donation, but a bonus. Many Americans receive it. tax method"

"So if I transfer the foundation to the United States, what impact will it have on us?"

"There are definitely some impacts, but overall, the benefits actually outweigh the disadvantages."

Zhou Shengnan said:"As early as the last century, some people in the United States have established corresponding charitable foundations. After entering this century, the number of charitable institutions in the United States has increased, and the wealthy people in the United States have begun to be keen on setting up charitable foundations. It’s not that they really have a conscience, but it’s mainly used for various reasonable tax avoidance……"

"According to the US tax policy, you need to pay high taxes the moment you get the bonus, but with the help of Deloitte Accounting Firm, the money can be donated directly to us the moment it is distributed to us. In our Yichen Charitable Foundation. Balabala said a lot.

Qingxia didn't seem to understand, and finally asked:"If I transfer the foundation to the United States, will it affect our activities in Xiangjiang?""

"No, absolutely not! There are too many charities in the United States. The top wealthy people have established various charitable funds to reasonably avoid taxes and inheritance taxes. If anyone dares to set up a foundation, he will definitely not survive the next day!"

Zhou Shengnan has been working in the United States before and later went to Xiangjiang, so he is very aware of the unspoken rules of the American foundation.

"Okay, then I will call Master Yichen later and see what his opinion is."

"Okay, Manager Lin, I'll go out first."

After waiting for others to leave,

Qingxia thought for a while and took out her mobile phone to send a text message. (In 1993, there were already mobile phones for sending text messages) (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

At the airport At that time, they had already opened the local phone card in the United States.

After a while,

Qingxia received a reply, the content was to wait.

After a while, Qingxia received a call from Lin Chen:"Master Yichen, it's Such……"

Qingxia Balabala said something

"Establishing a foundation in the United States? Lin

Chen squinted his eyes slightly. He didn't care where the foundation was, but thought about it.What would happen if a foundation was established in the United States to take over the money?

Would it be better?

At the same time, we can openly say to the American people:"Although we are foreigners, we uphold the compassion of Master Yichen, so we established a charity foundation in the United States to help the American people." In this way

, , I believe it will receive a lot of favor.

At the same time, every money spent by the foundation does not have to be disclosed as it was later, so it is completely possible to make money in the United States and spend it back home!

"Amitabha, Qingxia Donor, you might as well tell Lay Practitioner Zhou to ask her to re-establish a charity fund in the United States, so that you don’t have to move the one from Xiangjiang."

"This will also help the foundation later donate polio drugs to countries such as Mexico and Latin America.……"

If an American charity appears in these areas to conduct charity activities with the country, its safety is relatively guaranteed.

After all, the United States is now the only one, and the neighbors around it do not dare to provoke this man.

After finalizing the decision to re-establish a charitable foundation in the United States, Lin Chen also hung up the phone and returned to the Shaolin Temple in New York.

Well, returning to the house is a more appropriate way to describe it.[]

More than half an hour later.

Master Xuannan asked:"Yichen, are you really not going?"

"I won’t go to my uncle, I’m not very hungry yet, and I don’t really want to go out, so I’ll just stay inside the temple."

Lin Chen shook his head. He didn't like this kind of dinner and socializing.

That's why most of the time, he met in private with the lay people and donors who wanted to see him.

"Okay, then we will bring you food when we come back. Also, don’t go out alone. The (good) side of the United States is not as good as Xiangjiang. If you are not familiar with the place, you can’t even communicate."

Master Xuannan gave some instructions, and then he went to a nearby restaurant with Senior Brother Guolin and others for dinner.

………………………………………………

The street outside.

A car is driving slowly on the road

"Are you sure Shaolin is here?"

A foreign man with a long face and fluffy curly hair looked at Mark beside him suspiciously.

"certainly.

Mark nodded:"Let me tell you, when Jack and I came here last time, we saw the words Shaolin Temple. Later I asked someone to find out, and...the words in it were priests, and they were indeed from the Chinese Shaolin Temple." Kung Fu master! Just like a kung fu movie."

The horse-faced man said excitedly:"Okay, let's hurry up, I can't wait to learn your croaking kung fu!"

After a while, the car stopped at the door of a bungalow.

Looking at the low bungalow, the horse-faced man looked at Mark questioningly.

Mark knew he was wrong and said:"Hey, don't look at me like that, this is Shaolin. , did you see the sign above? Also, Bruce Lee was teaching in the basement, and Shaolin came to New York, but it was no exception!"

"good, I hope you won’t fool me!"

The horse-faced man hesitated for a few seconds, and was finally convinced.

Think about it, wasn't Bruce Lee teaching boxing in the basement?

"dong dong——"

Mark shouted:"Hey, is there anyone in there? We are here to learn how to kill you!"

Click.

The door opens.

Lin Chen walked out and looked up at the two of them. When he saw one of them, he was obviously stunned.

Nicholas Zhaosi?

Bah bah, is it Nicolas Cage?

Why is he here?

"Hello..."
