    "Ms. Ye, the poor monk's surname is Liu, his given name is Fen, and his Buddhist name is Shiyuan. He is the heir of the Pure Land White Lotus Sect to the White Lotus Temple on the Bund in Shanghai" Our Miss Yiren is currently sitting in an elegant temple with a  The young monks in cassocks sat facing each other, their facesnaturally ashen as black, and in their hearts they were cursing the late Emperor Zhu Jishi and the meddling Shanghai Family Planning Commission.  ¡÷Dian Dian Novel, 2+3wx ¡°Ms. Ye, this is the master of the Pure Land White Lotus Sect, the White Lotus Temple on the Bund, Shanghai Our blind date event is sponsored by the White Lotus Temple on the Bund, Shanghai. Master Shi Yuan is the successor of this temple.¡±  The speaker was a middle-aged uncle who was an officer of the Family Planning Commission of Shanghai Prefecture¡ªone of those people who did not do any serious work and spent all day thinking about getting girls in Shanghai Prefecture to get married early and have more children.  After coming to this time and space for several months, the Chinese government agencies that Miss Ye has come into contact with include, in addition to the diplomatic and immigration departments at the beginning, and the imperial army that is massacring African people. They are probably the Family Planning Commission - and another one.  Different from the very busy government agencies, the Chinese government in this time and space seems to be very "laid back".  There is no large-scale urban management and construction, nor are the issues concerning rural areas and farmers that worry the great leaders of the party and the country, nor is there the spring breeze of reform and opening up that has spread to every corner of the motherland.  Leaders of the Ming Empire, Southern Zhili Province, and Shanghai Prefecture rarely appeared on television or in newspapers.  The only busy one is the Family Planning Committee Miss Ye and dozens of girls from Yihe Department Store Shanghai Guangfu Store were mobilized by the Shanghai Family Planning Committee and the Shanghai Department Store Employees' Federation to participate in this blind date today.  active.  ¡®Okay, let¡¯s go on a blind date.  It¡¯s not like this lady has never had a boyfriend.  But with a flower monk' Ye Yiren looked at the monk in front of him with an ugly expression - the monk was quite good-looking.  Thin skin and tender meat, good facial features, quite a bit like Tang Monk Tang Monk, but I know the monk¡¯s face but not the monk¡¯s heart, who would have known that he turned out to be a flower monk!  "Master LiuShiyuan, you are a monk, this, thiscan get married?" Ye Yiren asked with a frown.  "Monkof course a monk can get married. Otherwise, where would the young monk come from?" The solemn monk answered seriously.  The so-called Pure Land White Lotus Sect is the White Lotus Sect of "red flowers, green leaves, and white lotus roots" back then.  In the process of Zhu Jishi regaining his sight, he also absorbed many disciples of the White Lotus Sect. Therefore, after the success of his recovery, the White Lotus Sect also became a legal religion and gradually evolved into two major branches, the Pure Land White Lotus Sect and the Tianli Taoism, one belonging to Buddhism  , worship Maitreya Buddha.  One belongs to Taoism and worships Wusheng Old Mother.  However, they all implement the privatization of temples (Taoist temples) and the hereditary system of monks (Taoist priests) - this is not learned from Japan's Pure Land Shinshu, but a tradition since the founding of the White Lotus Sect.  In fact, the White Lotus Sect was founded in the Song Dynasty and Japan's Jodo Shinshu was founded at about the same time.  They are all branches of the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism and can be considered a school in a strict sense.  So the way of doing things is very similar.  Monks are not prohibited from marrying, having children, and inheriting temples.  "Uh" Ye Yiren was startled, trying hard to recall how Chinese monks were born in another time and space?  Shouldn't the big monk give birth to the little monk?  "Is this temple can be inherited?" Yiren asked again.  "Of course you can inherit it. The temples and Taoist temples of the Pure Land White Lotus Sect and Pure Land Shin Sect of Buddhism, Shenxiao Sect, Tianshi Sect, Shinto Sect, and Tianli Dao of Taoism are all properties that can be inherited." The "matchmaker" of the Family Planning Commission smiled quickly.  explained.  Different from the state cadres who serve the people in another time and space, most of the officials of the Ming Empire in this time and space are good at deceiving and have no official airs on the surface - let alone the deputy section chief of the Marriage Promotion Section of the Family Planning Commission, who is the left wing member of the Ming Empire cabinet.  During every general election, the Prime Minister has to take to the streets to communicate cordially with voters.  Ye Yiren has not been in this time and space for a long time and has not encountered an election, so she feels that the politicians and officials of the Ming Dynasty do not show up much. In fact, the politicians and officials of the Ming Dynasty are also quite busy. The reason why they are "not big"  "Show up" is because Ming Dynasty's private media are irresponsible and greedy for money, and the current people of Greater China are not very interested in politics.  In most cases, it is difficult for politicians to attract people's attention, so the media is not happy to waste limited space and time on them. Only during general elections will political parties pay for political advertisements to increase the exposure of politicians.  Of course, the corruption of politicians and officials is a very eye-catching topic. Compared with another time and space, the political arena and officialdom of Greater China and Ming Dynasty are obviously quite dark!  Well, this is the conclusion Ye Yiren came to after watching movies and TV series!  Of course, there is no Hollywood or American TV series to watch in this time and space, but the film and television industry is still quite developed, with all kinds of blockbusters overwhelming. Miss Ye¡¯s biggest expense in the past few months, besides buying clothes and renting a house, is watching movies This  ?In the Greater China era, there were very few piracy, so Ye Yiren spent a lot of money.  In these movies and TV series, any political themes are basically the Greater China version of "Official Affairs Revealed", including corruption of parliamentarians, bribery of officials, electoral fraud, family politics, and even exposure to the corrupt life of the royal family (of course, this  The people of time and space do not think that emperors and kings have many women as corruption)!  It was really an eye-opener for Ye Yiren, and it also made her miss the old days when politics were clear and officials were dedicated to the people.  But I miss you so much. Looking at the current situation, I probably can't go back. I can only plan to live in this imperialist China for a long time. This is why Yiren agreed to participate in this blind date event - although Ye Yiren is not  A modern professional woman would regard being a housewife as her goal in life, but getting married and having a child is still a lifestyle she can accept But marrying or falling in love with a monk is really beyond her imagination.  "No one you like? That's such a pity. I hope there will be something that satisfies you next time." The organizer of this blind date event, the Sesame Officer of the Shanghai Family Planning Commission, continued after Miss Ye rejected the monk.  Ten non-religious people were introduced to her, but none of them could catch Ye Yiren's eye.  Either he is older or his financial foundation is not solid enough.  Through newspapers and television, Yiren already knows that the economy of the Great China Empire has been sluggish for the past 30 years. The era of high growth has gone forever with the aging of the population and the decline of the population.  According to Yiren, who specializes in the Indian tourist business, the economic prosperity of Greater China is not even as good as that of Indian countries with a population of 1.4 billion!  Although India in this time and space does not seem to have escaped the colonial rule of the British, the upper class of the country is almost exclusively white Europeans - most of Yiren's customers are also white and speak standard Cockney English. Most of them arrived after Victoria I.  Descendants of white British people in India also immigrated from Europe later.  Through conversations with these guests and information on the Internet, I know that India in this time and space is developing quite well. There are no dirty cities, no chaotic religious conflicts, not even Pakistan, and of course there is no evil bourgeois democracy -  -White Indians firmly held power, and even seized power in several of the largest and richest Indian states through marriage and adopted son inheritance, and controlled most of the land in the Indian Empire.  Moreover, the management is very well-organized. Cities such as New Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Karachi, Lahore, and Bangalore are full of modernity, with wide streets, numerous high-rise buildings, and prosperous real estate markets.  If calculated according to the official exchange rate, the average house price in big cities in India is 10 times that of big cities in Ming Dynasty!  And their per capita GDP is close to 12,000 Chinese yuan, which is almost one-third of Greater China's per capita GDP, reaching the level of other developed countries in this time and space - according to Ye Yiren's estimation, the purchasing power of the Chinese dollar in this time and space is approximately  It is equivalent to 5 to 6 times the RMB in another time and space. If you compare big meat buns with a lot of meat and Sanlu milk without melamine And the per capita wage income level of the Ming Dynasty in this time and space is about 2,500 yuan to 3,000 yuan, which is equivalent to  Thousands of dollars from another time and space.  However, in Yi Ren's impression, the Chinese in this time and space are not much richer than in another time and space.  Due to the long-term downturn in asset prices caused by aging and the rapid decline of the population, the number and wealth of billionaires in Greater China in this time and space are far less than in another time and space. Net worth of tens of billions is already rare, and most of them are in the oil industry and  Technology industry tycoon.  As for ordinary people, Yi Ren thinks they are even less wealthy - at least incomparable to her relatives and friends in another time and space.  Having assets of one to two million yuan is already considered a middle-to-upper-class family, and having a fortune of tens of millions is almost considered a small rich man!  Although the average income of people in this time and space is not low, since it is customary for women not to work after marriage, it needs to be divided by two. That is to say, the per capita wage income equivalent to 10,000 or several thousand yuan is only equivalent to that of another time and space.  Seven or eight thousand.  Even less after deducting taxes and social security, it is really not easy to afford the expenses of a family of three or four.  Moreover, in Yiren's view, the wages and incomes of Chinese people in this time and space tend to be somewhat equalized. There is not much difference in the income of ordinary front-line workers and middle-level white-collar workers in the company. However, most of the men who met Yiren and the others today have a monthly income of more than 3,000 yuan.  , there is no workaholic who earns as much!  But that monk can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month This is probably the main reason why Miss Yiren and other girls participating in the blind date feel that it is difficult to find a right husband?  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
