Chapter 433: What does the cherry stand for

"Master Xingyu came back with cherries, followed by a foreigner!" Yuanshan was like a primrose, and the whole Longxing Temple knew about Xingyu's winning of cherries.
But everyone was very curious about the foreigner who followed Xingyu. It turned out that even if William was asked to go back and wait for the news, he refused. Even William proposed to go directly to Longxing Temple with Master Xingyu. Xingyu told him that there will be an important event in Longxing Temple. It’s not convenient to take him back to the temple, and William said that he can serve as a helper to help Master Xingyu during the seminar.
Master Xingyu thought that the people in his craft temple had been eating for decades, and he should find someone to change his taste, so he did not continue to refuse.
"Host, Mr. William is the chef who exchanged cooking skills with us today. He wants to be a volunteer for our Longxing Temple and help me serve everyone together during the seminar. Mr. William is also very knowledgeable about vegetarian cooking. You can't make an exception to take him in." Mage Xingyu pointed out the purpose of William's stay at the beginning.
"Since this Mr. William can have such a mind, let him stay."
For the people at the foot of the mountain, Master Xingyu’s seasonal vegetable noodles are rare things, but for everyone at Longxing Temple, Xingyu’s craftsmanship has been taught for decades. They are radishes, potatoes, and tofu skins every day. It’s not bad to change a chef to improve the taste occasionally.
Moreover, Longxing Temple welcomes every volunteer to join, and naturally there is no reason to refuse him.
In this way, the "pious" William was stayed and began to live a volunteer life in the temple. Unlike a third-rate character like William, Kunyang Cherry became the protagonist as soon as she arrived at Longxing Temple.
"Master Xingyu, is this the cherries you brought back from the mountain?" Although many volunteers will bring melons and fruits to the mountain every year to share food with the monks in the temple, but for the copper city in March, is it possible to eat cherries? A very new thing.
Yuanshan drooled at the cherries brought back by Master Xingyu. This temptation seemed unusual to the child. Even if the host and others have stricter requirements on themselves, they have always been more indulgent in the young Yuanshan.
"Hey, I secretly kept a handful for you. The ones in the box are used to make offerings to the Buddha, and later they will be used to receive the masters from all over the world who attend the seminar, so don't think about it." Master Xingyu took it from his pocket. I took out a small plastic bag with a dozen topaz cherries in it.
"Thank you Master Xingyu."
The tender yellow cherries should have been squeezed by Master Xingyu's pocket, and some brown wounds have appeared on them, but this does not affect the deliciousness of the cherries.
Yuanshan savored the cherries in his mouth, and the sweetness made the child squinted happily.
Soon the masters from various temples who came to participate in the seminar gathered in the lecture hall of Longxing Temple. This seminar was hosted by the masters of Longxing Temple. Masters from temples around the Copper City, even several masters came from other cities.
In fact, various temples have always held such seminars on a regular basis. It is a place for masters to exchange new insights. Everyone will put forward different views based on their own understanding of Buddhism, and then discuss and discuss with each other.
"This morning's Fa conference will stop here for the time being. Please join me to have a meal in the studio."
For this type of seminar, deepening the understanding of Buddhism is only a small part. It is more about learning from each other and inspecting the management of various temples and observing the continuation of incense in the temples.
The Zhaitang is also a place that can reflect the overall situation of a temple. The number of monks who come to eat the fast food, what the dishes are, and how satisfied everyone is with the temple can be a good indicator of the management status of a temple.
"The fast food for noon today is four dishes, one soup, and one portion of fruit."
As a volunteer here, William is still a small one that has attracted the attention of many mages.
"I didn't expect the volunteer project of Longxing Temple to be so successful, and foreign friends would come to participate."
The host didn't expect that William had just come here, and he would show his face so soon: "They are all volunteers who come to serve others voluntarily. I'm not good to drive Mr. William out because he is a foreigner."
For a temple, how many volunteers can be received and how many public welfare activities can be organized are the criteria for measuring the strength of a temple. It is not that monks like these, but these things are closely related to their and government funding.
While the masters must have financial support behind giving lectures and organizing public welfare activities, the truly good temples will not collect money from the believers without authorization, so all these must be managed by the temple itself.
The Zhaitang of Longxing Temple is external. In addition to serving the monks in the temple, Master Xingyu also sells his own Zhaifan in the Zhaitang opened by the outside. Although the profit is relatively low, Longxing under the long flow of water The income of the temple in this area is very considerable, and the money will be used for the construction of the temple.
The exchange of Dharma at the seminar is only a small part. Learning how the various temples operate well is the key. From the moment William appeared in the hall, the weight of Longxing Temple in the minds of the masters who came to the seminar began. There has been a change.
Today’s fast rice is sweet and sour eryngii mushrooms, fragrant halogen duck, soy bean sprouts stir-fried with fennel, and sesame seeds stir-fried spinach, with tofu kelp soup.
William has not yet started to get started, the only thing he did today was to help Master Xingyu handle the ingredients behind. Therefore, each slice of the eryngii mushroom has a uniform cross pattern, and it is very tasty when dipped in sweet and sour sauce.
The venetian silk strips are uniform, and the kelp slices and tofu are the same size. It can be said that William has used the Michelin standard very well in the hall of Longxing Temple.
For the management of Longxing Temple's Zhaitang, the masters once again scored a good score in their hearts. But when the fruit cherries came up after the meal~EbookFREE.me~ the masters from various monasteries were a little surprised.
Kunyang's Huangjing cherry masters are still known to some extent, after all, many volunteers in their temples also carry some high-end fruits for the Buddha or to share food with the monks.
But this is only a small amount. If so many topaz cherries are supplied at once, it is not just a matter of money, but also shows that there is also a powerful pilgrim behind Longxing Temple, otherwise where to collect these cherries ?
The cherry in front of you is no longer a kind of fruit. It symbolizes the relationship between the temple and the pilgrims, and also a symbol of strength. It represents not simple money or status, but the prestige of Longxing Temple in the local area.
This is the reason why Huiming host wanted to sign a cooperative relationship with Qian Lina. Qian Longxing Temple is not short of money because of its related industries, but there are opportunities for monks to show the strength of the temple. How many?
This time the seminar Huiming wants to have such an effect. When it comes to the understanding of Buddhism, everyone has their own opinions. There is no way to have a unified standard, but in terms of temple management, our Longxing Temple must be among the best. This topaz cherry is the best proof!
Cough, the poor monk is taking pictures!
