If you want to continue the "borrowing" method, you must follow the principle of "whatever you borrow must be returned", but Jiang Feng does not want to do this. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, he really wants to take advantage of the Changning Chamber of Commerce, but the other party seems to have
Seeing through this, Dou Jinqiu didn't say much, but Dou Jinfan, the president of the Changning Chamber of Commerce who came to Donghu County after hearing the news, said bluntly that this type of cooperation would not be an exception. Jiang Feng could only smile and return the ten years he originally wanted to agree on.
I forgot to mention the deadline on purpose.
The borrowed alchemist's name is "Li Mingdu". He is in his nineties and has reached the spiritual level. He can be regarded as a person who has already been buried. He has tried more than ten times before, but he has failed to break through to the Xuan level.
His luck can be said to be extremely bad, so his meridians often have hidden injuries, and it is even difficult to use the power of elixirs to continue to reach higher realms. However, this person's spirit is still strong, and he can teach him the art of alchemy for three to five years. It is not a big problem, but "
The "available" period should only be ten years at most.
The old man clamored to take a concubine as soon as he came up. Jiang Feng secretly asked Dou Jinqiu about this, and found out that this concubine was already fifty when he awakened. In his early years, he spent all his family wealth on elixirs to cultivate Taoism, and he didn't even have any spiritual stones to marry a wife and have children.
None. After joining the Chamber of Commerce, if he had not had some talent in alchemy, he might have been assigned to manage the warehouse early in the morning. If someone said he lacked something when he was young, he would ask for it vengefully, so he married twelve wives and concubines in succession, but still
Nothing came out. According to Dou Jinqiu's judgment, perhaps it was caused by an overdose of pills in his early years.
It seems that this paranoid attitude of not turning back until he hits the wall has really made his colleagues unhappy, so they threw him out. Jiang Feng secretly comforted himself that what the Qianshan Sect wanted was his ability to make alchemy, not to let him fool him.
Those who teach and teach alchemy also need to find a secluded and quiet place without disturbing others. So they gave him some kind words and promised to help him solve his "concubine" problem and temporarily settle him.
The Changning Chamber of Commerce did not handle the position of deputy governor of Beimu County casually. Although it did not set up its headquarters in Beimu County, Beimu County is located at the junction of Yufeng Sect, Chixia Gate and Lelin Gate, and its location is very important.
, to have "one of their own" in an important position, they must have some practical care for the business. On the issue of candidates, they have also considered it behind closed doors for a long time. They must be trustworthy and do a good job of not returning the favor to Jiang Feng.
preparation.
The final candidate came from Dou Jinfan's wife's family. She was a female cultivator named "Xu Xiaofei". She was at the third level of Xuan level. She was about Huaxin's age. She had a fair complexion, a light body, and a decent appearance. In addition to being a famous sword cultivator, she had no experience in building construction.
Jiang Feng secretly wondered if the Changning Chamber of Commerce had sensed his intention to transfer Ding Baozhen, so he had made plans early to arrange for himself a suitable candidate to serve as the deacon of the Construction Department, but after thinking about it, he should
No, after all, this idea is only in their own minds and has not been revealed to anyone yet. Perhaps what they are more considering is that this woman has some connection with the Dou family, and her swordsmanship is enough to protect Su Jin from ordinary dangers.
Dou Jinqiu secretly pulled Jiang Feng and whispered that although this girl had been married once, she was unlucky. Her husband died in a secret fight between chambers of commerce, leaving only a young daughter to take care of her. The family has never planned another marriage for her.
For this reason, Jiang Feng was speechless, secretly thinking to Dou Jinqiu, who do you think I am, Jiang Feng? Could it be that based on Qiu Zhenzhen's situation, you could tell that I like this?
◇ However, people do not give a return and do not talk about the return period. You have to give the face on your face. He looked at the "Xu Xiaofei" for a while, and identified that the method is "folding the halberdless sword".
Similar to Dharma, Xin Dao has made a lot of money this time. We will see how her character is in the future. If the three views are suitable, find a monk in the sect to accept her, which can be regarded as adding another mysterious cultivator to the sect.
"How is it? I think it's good, right?" Dou Jinqiu on the side missed Jiang Feng's gaze.
Bah! Where are you?
Jiang Feng secretly thought in his heart and could only sigh and pretend not to hear, leaving Dou Jinqiu to ponder by himself. Jiang Feng came to Donghu County, and Guard Zhou Xing and others also came to accompany him. Jiang Feng calculated that this would be the headquarters of the Changning Chamber of Commerce in the future.
Zhou Xing was currently short of manpower, so he deliberately revealed Zhou Xing's difficulties while changing glasses. Unfortunately, no matter how he tried to insinuate himself, Dou Jinfan refused to answer, which made Jiang Feng feel very helpless.
After the banquet dispersed, he called Zhou Xing alone and told him to hold on for another month. After the ascension meeting was over, several new monks would be transferred to help him as appropriate. He also told him not to wait and settle in Donghu County on his own as soon as possible.
Xunmi, after all, now that we have entered the Jincheng Alliance, this place is becoming increasingly prosperous, and there are not many low-level casual cultivators coming and going.
The night was not over half yet, and Jiang Feng was about to take a rest when he heard the door open lightly and sensed a slightly unfamiliar atmosphere. When he opened the door, he saw Xu Xiaofei standing pretty in front of the door with light makeup on under the moonlight.
She was slightly red, as if she had just cried.
"Master, the moonlight tonight
Not bad, can we go in and have a chat?" Yi's voice had a trembling tremor.
What's the situation? Jiang Feng looked up and down, and when he saw his hesitant and embarrassed look, he knew that Dou Jinqiu had made a mistake again, and quickly said, "It's already late at night. Fellow Taoist Xu, you should go back and rest."
"Yes." Xu Xiaofei felt relieved and quickly turned around. He just took four or five steps, but turned around again and said with some hesitation: "After returning to the sect, there is no need to... come?"
"Have a good time cultivating Taoism, do things well, and don't think wildly." Jiang Feng sighed in his heart, thinking that the Taoist master's reputation has been ruined by those of you who can make mistakes. In order to fully express his feelings, he quickly smiled and nodded, closing
He opened the door, leaned against the door and sighed again.
But I heard a soft sigh from behind the door, gradually going away.
By the way, why are you sighing? Jiang Feng is very unhappy. Is it difficult for you to have me as the leader? Thinking about Yiren's shyness with pear blossoms in the rain, coupled with the uneven hills and ravines in front of him that seemed to have been temporarily strengthened by Dou Jinqiu, and the bright moonlight.
It's so tempting, and my wife Su Jin is far away in Beimu County. It's very rare that I can avoid making mistakes.
Taking a long breath to calm down the turmoil in his heart, he had secretly made up his mind during the memorial ceremony that day that he would never mess around with others again before avenging Zheng Keyi.
Brother Lei Youqi was surrounded and killed by everyone. Now, except for the prefecture-level monk Tie Sanquan of the Lingcage Chamber of Commerce, the others have not yet been killed. The leader, Mo Haishu, and the instigator, Su Liqing, are still at ease. He is limited by his own strength, plus
I haven't had the right time to avenge him, and now that I think about it, it still feels like a lump in my throat, making it difficult to sleep peacefully.
In contrast, Liu Sijiang, a remnant of the Xuanxiu cultivator, has no concerns about his strength. What he lacks right now is a suitable opportunity. Once Zuo Zichan, the head of the Huanglong Sect, leaves for some reason, or Liu Sijiang leaves the sect on his own, he will
A good opportunity to take action. But the death of Sun Yinglong should make Liu Sijiang tremble and hide in Shuanglong City, not daring to stray even an inch away.
It would be great if he could find a way to fish it out. Jiang Feng thought of his wife Su Jin for a moment, and then thought about how since Su Jin married into the sect, she rarely mentioned the sixth sister Su Ji in front of him.
Son, I think the relationship between the two is average. It would be extremely difficult to find a breakthrough from Su Jin. What's more, even if Su Ji'er comes to Qianshan Sect to visit relatives, Liu Sijiang, who has a ulterior motive in his heart, will definitely smell the danger and deliberately not come.
, this method should be ineffective.
For the time being, let’s wait for the news about law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao, hoping that he can find a breakthrough as soon as possible.
…………
Qianshan Sect, Luo Chuan.
It was late at night, and in the study of law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao, the light of the Soul Fire Palace lantern was still bright. This year's income and expenditure situation within the sect was good. Although in the short term, it was troubled by the Jincheng sect's blockade of trade routes due to the dispute over the Black Water Gate's hometown, but
Because the problem was quickly resolved, the outlook remains positive.
Wang Xiandao knew very well that for matters such as the income and expenditure within the sect, the leader only needed to know the results and the main items of entry and exit. The remaining details should be compiled by Zheng Luda, the elder of the general affairs department, Wang Juefu, the manager of the treasury, and Ding Lingyu, the assistant manager.
.Originally, this was none of his business, but after all, Wang Juefu was a member of the Wang family. He was in charge of the Wang family's treasury and was suddenly promoted to the sect's treasury. Wang Xiandao was somewhat uneasy about this, fearing that he would be embarrassed by his big job and make mistakes while busy, so he deliberately
He applied to the boss, Jiang Feng, hoping to intervene in the matter, but the boss didn't care about this slightly overstepped behavior, jokingly saying, "Those who are capable work hard," and told him to take responsibility.
This is an unconditional trust.
He understands the good intentions of the leader Jiang Feng. After failing to advance to the prefecture level, Wang Xiandao can see that the worry on the leader's face is genuine. All subsequent arrangements are out of the intention to help him get out of the predicament. Thinking about this
, I felt a little moved in my heart.
By the way, when did I, an old man, get touched by young people? Wang Xiandao chuckled in his heart and turned to the first page of the account book with small characters again, and looked at it carefully again. Although there was still half a month until the end of the year, the president of the sect
A rough outline of the revenue and expenditure has been established, which should be between eleven and fourteen third-level spiritual stones, depending on Nuangu County and some market towns that have not yet submitted a report, as well as recent sudden bank runs.
A run is a move by some monks in the sect to exchange all the Mengong in their hands for spiritual stones. This year is the first year of the implementation of the Mengong system. This kind of thing that is visible but is only a digital record makes a few monks feel unsure.
, Therefore, they want to exchange it into real benefits, which is not wrong in itself. After all, within the scope allowed by the system, the Qianshan Sect has a poor foundation in the past. This mentality is also understandable. If it happened in previous years, even Wang Xiandao would
He was worried in his heart, but now looking at the situation in the accounts, he could only smile, thinking that maybe next year, this kind of thing would no longer exist.
Such "large" income has not been seen in the history of Qianshan Sect for many years.
At least since Wang Xiandao has been the law enforcement elder, he has never experienced it personally. Although the recent series of personnel appointments by the leader will increase the pressure on expenditures, the opening of the southbound trade route next year will further expand revenue. Wang Xiandao has no doubt about this.
.
He thought that the situation would only get better and better, but unfortunately he could not go further, otherwise the status of the Qianshan Sect, especially within the Jincheng League, would be slightly on the stage. Thinking of this, he planned to go to the transfer school tomorrow.
Elder Wei Ruoguang, in his opinion, Wei Ruoguang is the most promising person in the sect to advance to the prefectural level. He wants to share his "failure experience" in Xihai Lingxu to prevent him from missing good opportunities in the future.
At this time, the young man who was waiting outside knocked on the door. When he was ordered to come forward, he carefully handed over a document that was not too thin. Wang Xiandao knew that this was a member of the family he had sent out and had gotten the news, so he immediately handed him over.
What unfolds is the trajectory of Liu Sijiang's recent activities, as well as the various industries in the hands of the couple.
As expected, Liu Sijiang has been living in seclusion recently and has never left Shuanglong City. It would be very difficult to kill this beast under the eyes of Zuo Zichan, the head of Huanglong Sect. Even if he takes the risk and succeeds, such a naked attack would be difficult.
The act of killing a monk from his sect with his face will also bring the relationship between the leader and Zuo Zichan to a freezing point, and it will be impossible to explain it within the alliance. Therefore, we need to find another way to trap him in another place, but at this moment
, but it seems extremely difficult.
After going through this report, Wang Xiandao finally found a gap. Not far from the southern border, in Xiajiang Town of the Huanglong Sect, Liu Sijiang had an inconspicuous business called "Puxiantang". Maybe he could lure this beast here and strike again.
Succeed. In this way, the burden can be dumped on the cross-border border bandits who existed in the first place but did not actually do any evil.
However, it was a bit difficult for the leader to survive. He put down the report, leaned on his seat, and thought carefully about how to plan this matter. No matter how the follow-up operations were carried out, the first step was to let this person go down to the river.
Town, attracted Liu Sijiang's attention. Regarding this point, Wang Xiandao immediately had a good idea.
…………
Qianshan Sect, Donghu County.
Jiang Feng, who had been sleepless all night, patrolled the sky above Donghu County twice in the morning, then pressed the clouds and headed to Luochuan with Li Mingdu and Xu Xiaofei. The former handed over to Ding Baozhen, the deacon of the Advice Department, and asked him to find a secluded place near Luochuan.
, opened an alchemy dojo for Li Mingdu, and ordered Wu Xianghua, the deacon of the Department of Ceremonies, to find a concubine for him. Fortunately, he did not ask for a monk, so this matter was not difficult to handle. As for the candidate for alchemy, he ordered
All monks in the sect who are under the age of thirty and within the fifth level of the spiritual level must attend at least three lectures so that Li Mingdu can select whether there are people with suitable talents.
The next day, Jiang Feng summoned many Xuan-level monks in the sect and shared his experience of being promoted to the Earth-level with everyone. At the same time, he also introduced Xu Xiaofei, who had joined the sect, to everyone. Afterwards, he was accompanied by Wang Yi, the deacon of the Rolling Curtain Department, and went to Beimu.
county.
Jiang Feng currently has no clue about the problem of Wu Chunhua and Wang Yi's cultivation. However, Jiang Hai's death made Jiang Feng realize that this matter must not be forced. Maybe one day the two of them will suddenly realize the truth, but maybe this day does not exist.
, what I can do is to find a suitable safe method as soon as possible. After all, my wife Su Jin is also trapped in the spiritual level and cannot make any progress. On the other hand, one day, there will be a suitable one.
When choosing to replace two people, we must also consider their previous contributions and seek some benefits they deserve.
As the saying goes, the wave behind is the wave ahead. The wave behind is overwhelming and unstoppable. Only then can the sect have hope and future. However, if the wave ahead is humble and gives way to the worthy, then this virtue also needs to be rewarded.
After finishing everything, Law Enforcement Elder Wang Xiandao and General Affairs Elder Zheng Luda made a special trip to report on this year's income. Jiang Feng felt very relieved, but he also knew that he would have to wait until the end of next year to repay his debts with this kind of income.
.Fortunately, I have plenty of money now, and my creditors have not asked me for debts, so I am not in a hurry to settle matters with the sect so clearly.
What's more, one of the creditors has run away sadly and will not be able to see each other in the short term.
Jiang Feng felt a little regretful. Hearing that Wang Xiandao had begun to set up a trap in Xiajiang Town, Huanglongmen, to trap Liu Sijiang, he marveled at Wang Xiandao's speed, but more importantly, he was worried that he did not have the right manpower to handle this matter. After all, he wanted to
is alive.
"If there is any progress, please let me know as soon as possible. You can go to Zheng Yiyu. In addition, don't worry about manpower. I will find a solution." Jiang Feng thought of Kuang Shucai and others. Perhaps their first secret operation was for this purpose.
It's over.
After attending the Taoist Dharma Conference in Huanhuan Luochuan and hanging out with his wife Su Jin, who had been staying in the sect for a whole day, Jiang Feng took advantage of the night to bring his three disciples and Yingge, who was almost going crazy from holding back the pain in the cave.
After leaving Luochuan, I took a secluded road and headed straight to Zhenwu City of Li Zong.
