Chapter 502: The Desire of the People
Zhang Chaodong's words are correct, but it depends on how you look at the problem.
In the eyes of the traditional forces, although the secular is the foundation of the spiritual circle, this foundation is like clay, it is a carrying body, and the soil will not block you in turn, and it is natural for monks to want to push a mountain and a lake.
As for Zhang Chaodong's statement, he looks at the problem from a secular standpoint, although it is not wrong that water can carry a boat or capsize a boat, but why should water overturn a boat if it is fine? Unless someone stirs up trouble.
If Zhang Chaodong uses this point of view to 'persuade' the traditional forces, the result will definitely disappoint him, those big guys will let him know what is called the truth in the fist, but with Zhang Chaodong's knowledge, of course he will not do such a stupid thing, but he just said this to Xu Xingkong.
This is not to say that Zhang Chaodong looks down on Xu Xingkong and has too little political experience in bullying Xu Xingkong, even if he really thinks so in his heart, I am afraid that the people behind him will tell him what kind of character Lin Xiaofeng is, so he still said such a statement, it must be useful.
And Lin Xiaofeng also accurately understood this, it can be seen that the ability of the government should not be underestimated, and they have roughly analyzed Xu Xingkong's strategic concept or Yushan Yuzhai according to the limited information they have.
The government did not focus all its attention and attention on Xu Xingkong's creative new theories and new spells, but focused on the future strategic positioning of Yushan Yuzhai.
The basis of Zhang Chaodong's remarks was based on Yushan Yuzhai's future strategic concept, and the government accurately judged that Yushan Yuzhai's future strategic concept might be to lower the threshold for cultivation, increase the number of disciples to choose, and even further optimize the route of the human bloodline, and even finally integrate the entire secular cultivation system.
With this judgment, the government is very easy to find the problems that Yushan Yuzhai is likely to face in the future, and at the same time, this is also the opportunity of the government, because Yushan Yuzhai in order to realize the strategic concept, will gradually extend its tentacles to the secular in the future, and this aspect is precisely the specialty of the government, especially the government has huge management resources and experience, which is what Yushan Yuzhai is extremely lacking.
Zhang Chaodong's statement was actually to show Xu Xingkong and the two the government's expertise and ability, and to explain that the two sides have a natural foundation for cooperation, and his purpose was to persuade Xu Xingkong to reach close cooperation with the government as much as possible.
Lin Xiaofeng informed Xu Xingkong of his thoughts in detail, and Xu Xingkong realized that there were so many things hidden behind Zhang Chaodong's seemingly rude threat, and at the same time, he also despised Zhang Chaodong's official tone, can't this kind of thing be clearly explained, in case he didn't understand it, or even simply misunderstood that he was threatening himself, wouldn't it be the opposite.
However, if Xu Xingkong and Lin Xiaofeng really didn't even understand this level of hints, Zhang Chaodong and the people behind him probably wouldn't have the time to continue to deal with such stupid guys, so they would simply go directly to Yang Wanjiang.
Xu Xingkong pursed his lips slightly, looked at Zhang Chaodong playfully:
"What do you think about the foreseeable future?"
Zhang Chaodong didn't seem surprised that Xu Xingkong suddenly changed the topic, and asked with an unchanged face:
"This topic is too broad, what exactly does Elder Xu want to ask?"
"All aspects, including the direction of the spiritual circle, the extension of the relationship between the two races, and... Influence on the world, etc., by the way, foreign forces are also included. ”
Zhang Chaodong smiled:
"This is a big article, does Elder Xu want to hear it now?"
Xu Xingkong smiled and waved his hand:
"There's no hurry, there's still plenty of time, isn't it? ”
"Yes, although the livability index of the capital is not very good-looking, there are still many places worth seeing, Elder Xu and Director Lin might as well stay for a few more days, and Ms. He also has a lot of friends in the capital. ”
He Yan suddenly turned to herself when she heard the topic, and subconsciously glanced out the car window, and found that the car seemed to have turned off the main road, as if the destination was about to arrive.
Following Zhang Chaodong's topic, He Yan thought of his friends in the capital, to be honest, there are not many real friends He Yan, more of them are general friends, or 'friends' who have to be made because of work, but now he is trying to leave this circle and move towards another higher circle, and these 'friends' may soon become passers-by.
Thinking of this, He Yan felt that she was actually a very utilitarian person.
He Yan's momentary distraction caused a short cold scene in the car, but fortunately, the destination had arrived, the car stopped at the gate, Zhang Chaodong got out of the car with a smile and went to the doorman to register.
......
The powerhouses of the various sects who came to Beijing with Xu Xingkong did not all come to this state-level hotel with them, some went to the station of their own sect in the capital, and some disappeared into the crowd of people in the capital.
Among them, there is a Xuandao person who is in the south of the whole truth after he was settled, he came to visit Xu Xingkong and Lin Xiaofeng, this Xuandao person is one of the leaders of the Daomen, he rushed to Shanghai to meet Xu Xingkong after the Shanghai ambush incident, but due to the many aftermath of the Shanghai incident, he did not have time to talk to Xu Xingkong in detail.
Therefore, as soon as they arrived in the capital, the Xuandao people immediately came to communicate with Xu Xingkong, nominally, Yushan Yuzhai is a branch of the Daomen, so Zhongnan Quanzhen Dao, as one of the leaders of the Daomen, is naturally a natural ally of Yushan Yuzhai, and the Xuandao people are responsible for the interests of Yushan Yuzhai as allies.
Xu Xingkong and his entourage arrived in the capital, it will definitely bring some turmoil, and it is inevitable to redivide the interests, so the Xuandao people must come to Xu Xingkong to achieve internal unification, and the two sides, no, must be in this way to let the entire Daomen, including Yushan Yuzhai, obtain the maximum benefits.
Xu Xingkong met with the Xuandao people in Shanghai and had a brief exchange, but Lin Xiaofeng only took a photo with him, and her understanding of the Xuandao people all came from the intelligence summary and analysis within the door.
This time there was nothing to do with He Yan, after all, no matter how thick-skinned He Yan was, she was embarrassed to squeeze into Xu Xingkong's room to make light bulbs for him and Lin Xiaofeng, of course, she didn't have the guts.
When the two sides met, Lin Xiaofeng seriously gave the Xuandao people a salute to the juniors, but Xu Xingkong only performed the etiquette of an equal, after all, this circle is respected by strength, with Xu Xingkong's strength, if the Xuandao people were not placed there with their identity and seniority, I am afraid that they would have to bow their heads half a year in front of Xu Xingkong.
After a few words of greeting, the two sides turned to a formal topic, and before discussing countermeasures, Xu Xingkong first asked about the aftermath of the incident in Shanghai.
The Xuandao people picked an important one and informed Xu Xingkong.
There is no doubt that the Bai family and the Broken Knife Society are bleeding heavily this time, not to mention a large number of material resources, and there are also a lot of antiquities that have also been taken out as the price of quelling the incident, and there is naturally a share of Yushan Yuzhai, but Xu Xingkong doesn't have to worry about these, naturally there are people in charge of Yushan Yuzhai to hand over to the Bai family and the Broken Knife Society.
As for Bai Yuanjing, who Xu Xingkong opened his mouth to protect, he was finally abolished and repaired and sent back to the Bai family, of course, the scapegoats handed over by the other Bai families did not have such a good thing, most of them were sent to the front line to be cannon fodder, especially arrogant and with complex identity backgrounds, they were simply destroyed humanely, saving more forces and sects from being involved.
Xu Xingkong didn't have any thoughts and thoughts about this, Lin Xiaofeng didn't care about it, after saying this, the Xuan Daoist picked up the teacup and moistened his throat, sighed heavily, and said:
"After the ambush in Shanghai, probably everyone who should have come has already come, and there should be no more similar attacks. ”
Xu Xingkong smiled inexplicably:
"It seems that the Buddha Gate Daomen, as well as the Demon Clan, have made a move on me, the Buddha Gate has lost Dinghui Zen Master, and the losses of the Bai family and the Broken Knife Society are not small, but the Daomen..."
The Xuan Daoist laughed and interrupted Xu Xingkong's words:
"I'm thinking too much, Poor Dao thinks that the behavior of the Xuanyi Daoist can only represent himself, his whereabouts are unknown at present, I believe that the research association will definitely give you an explanation, within our Daomen, or unity. ”
Xu Xingkong wiped his chin and replied with some dissatisfaction:
"Dao Chief's words are true, but look at how many of the various factions of the Dao Sect are casual this time? There are quite a few people who stay in Shanghai to share pork, and now there are not many people in the Dao Sect who take care of the overall situation like the Dao Chief, right?"
The Xuan Daoist shook his head and sighed:
"This is not just today, if the Daomen can be united, why should the Buddhism be great?"
Xu Xingkong glanced at Lin Xiaofeng, who had been silent, Lin Xiaofeng nodded lightly, and Xu Xingkong turned to Xuan Dao:
"Dao Chief, I met with Mr. Bai Zonghua, the head of the Bai family, the day before yesterday. ”
"I know about this matter, the head of the Bai Zonghua family was also angry with me in advance, what does Xingkong think of the head of the Bai family?
"The head of the Bai family, yes, a very atmospheric person, frank and open, is a character who can be befriended, as for the Bai family... What I want to say is exactly this, the head of the Bai family has a foresight, which coincides with our opinion. ”
The Xuan Daoist looked straight, leaned forward slightly, and said:
"I want to hear about it. ”
"The head of the Bai family said on the same day that in the future, relations between the two ethnic groups may be further relaxed, large-scale wars will gradually decrease or even disappear, the form of conflict will become mainly small-scale and small-scale local conflicts, and the main contradictions between the two ethnic groups will gradually shift into contradictions of interests, and even cause a certain degree of integration of the forces of the two ethnic groups, and the distinct racial camp will evolve into a vague interest camp. ”
Hearing this, the face of the Xuan Daoist was a little heavy, and he spoke after a while:
"Although I don't want to admit it, but this kind of prediction is likely to become a reality, as a traditional Quanzhen Dao descendant, of course Poor Dao doesn't want to see the Daomen draw a prison for their own interests, but from the general trend, the long-term war has made both sides a little tired, so the people's hearts want, hey!"
Xu Xingkong nodded, of course he didn't agree with the emotion of going to the east of the Xuandao people, as a trend-setter, how could Xu Xingkong stand on the shore and sigh.
"The Taoist chief is right, what the people want is the trend of the times. ”
The Xuan Daoist nodded, shook his head lightly and said:
"In fact, poor Dao can also see that this general trend also needs to be promoted, and you, as well as Su Jin'er and the Bai family, etc., I am afraid that they have also contributed a lot. ”
Xu Xingkong pursed his lips and smiled, and asked a little interestingly:
"So, what about you, Daoist?"
