Great Statue Cave

Moreover, the booklet read: Four Great Wisdom Kings Painted Divine Statues, Nos. 1–10.

Duan Rong immediately pointed at that string of numbers and asked Tang Xiong, "What are these painted divine statues of the Four Great Wisdom Kings, Nos. 1–10?"

Tang Xiong did not know why Duan Rong had singled out these statues, much less why his expression was so grave. He answered, "These statues are mainly supplied to the masters of the Dharma Academy."

"The Dharma Academy?!" Duan Rong's gaze sharpened.

During his time here, he had already gained a rough understanding. The Dharma Academy of the Dharma Appearance Sect was essentially equivalent to the Inner Sect Disciples of the Seven Sects. Their primary task was cultivation, and they did not concern themselves with mundane affairs.

Duan Rong asked, "Do we have to make these statues every year?"

Tang Xiong said, "Not necessarily. Master Yidai makes the specific arrangements. The Dharma Academy masters also come here to collect the statues only after receiving approval from the Dharma Academy. Master Yidai assigns the statue-making tasks to each group according to the amount of stock in the warehouse."

"So that means the warehouse has stock of statues Nos. 1–10?"

"Yes, all of them are in stock. There must be at least two sets of the largest No. 10 statues, while the smallest No. 1 statues must have twenty sets in reserve. Master Yidai set all these rules. Whenever a statue is taken and there is a shortage, the task of making more is assigned."

Duan Rong silently approved. Yu Dai really was someone deeply versed in quantitative management. No wonder he could manage all these craftsmen in the Dharma Appearance Sect.

Duan Rong said, "Would it be convenient to take me to the warehouse? I want to see these statues."
