Chapter 260: The sect is in a dilemma
As a sect master, Lin Chen was still in office for the first time, and as soon as he took office, he was dazzled by the stewards of various sects.
Lin Chen found that the most powerful of them was Lin Shuyao. There is also Lin Tianfang, and there is also Lin Zang's sword.
These three families are like clouds of masters, almost monopolizing the masters of half of the family, and overpowering the top ten families.
Lin Dongcheng, who wants to support Lin Chen, is also a member of Lin Shuyao's team.
Although Lin Dongcheng temporarily stabilized Lin Shuyao, he could not fully represent all the sect masters.
Lin Tianming is in his fifties, not much older than Lin Chen, he has already advanced to the real human realm, and of course he looks down on the monks who only have the Spirit Emperor.
He and Lin Zangjian looked Lin Chen up and down for a long time, with disdain in their eyes.
Lin Tianming suddenly proposed: "Sect Master, I am in a hurry about an important matter here and don't know how to deal with it, and now I still hope that the Sect Master will come out to solve this matter." ”
"Tell me about it. Lin Chen knew that these people would stand up and make it difficult for him, but he didn't expect it to be so soon, and he was also a little curious about what moths they would come up with.
"A radius of thousands of miles has always been the territory of our Lin family and Daqing Kingdom, recently because of some city disputes, it has been very unpleasant, Daqing Guo's army killed our family's people, and it is four or five Lin family servants, Daqing Guo has sent someone to discuss this matter, and the opposite side is also the strong man of Daqing State, Liu He of the real realm, this person is very tricky and mean, and must let our family show enough sincerity. ”
Lin Tianming threw this burden to Lin Chen, of course, this matter was easy for him to solve, as long as Lin Tianming came forward, there was nothing that could not be solved.
But Lin Chen is different, Lin Chen will not sell his face if he comes forward, and the people of the Liu family are likely to be embarrassed and humiliate Lin Chen.
"Is there anything else?" Lin Chen asked rhetorically.
Lin Zangjian said: "I have one thing here, Lin Hao's second master and Lin Shuyao's uncle fought over trivial matters, and they are currently arguing. ”
"That's all there is to it, that's good, you first call this Lin Hao's second master, and Lin Shuyao's uncle over for me to see. ”
Lin Chen waved his hand, Lin Zangjian had no choice but to let his men make arrangements, and not long after, two noisy old men walked in outside, looking like they were over fifty.
For the first time, Lin Chen realized that the sect master was definitely not so easy, everyone here didn't know him, but he needed to handle everything fairly.
Otherwise, any side will rise up, and rumors will spread, burning around like wildfire.
As Ling Chen's grandson, Lin Chen has the responsibility to do all this, even though he has no interest in these things.
I heard Second Master Lin say: "Sect Master, the three Lord Bo are the masters of me, this Lin Xiao is really lawless, just for a bag of gold coins, just for a few trucks of winter charcoal, they actually beat my people." ”
"Sect Master and Lord Bo, you know that the daily consumption and the consumption of coals in our house are sky-high, but my tax collector"
Hearing the two people arguing and shouting, Lin Chen pressed with one hand and said, "Stop, don't argue, it's just for a bag of gold and a few carts of coals, this matter is from our sect's mansion, and it will be distributed fairly." ”
Of course, these two people were happy, but Lin Zangjian immediately retorted dissatisfiedly: "Sect Master, there are thousands of mansions up and down our sect, if each mansion is handled like Sect Master Lin, then we will double the expenses, and the food and clothing of each mansion have been arranged a long time ago, not one more point and not one point less." ”
"As the head of the top ten families, if you fight every day for such a little money and use, it won't make others laugh and drop their jaws. ”
Lin Chen sneered: "As a warrior of our family, a member of our family, everyone should enjoy enough material needs, first come from the Zongmen Mansion, if the Zongmen Mansion is not enough to spend, I will pay out of my own pocket or think of other ways." ”
After Lin Chen finished speaking, Lin Zangjian retorted: "The food, clothing, and living expenses of our family members are all customized by the old sect master, and you can't change them at will just after taking office." ”
"I've changed, what's the matter, now I'm the new sect master, and you'll listen to me one day,"
Lin Chen faced each other directly, Lin Zangjian could only ask Lin Shuyao and Lin Tianming for help, and said: "You see, on the first day of becoming the sect master, we will change the usage of our subordinates at will, and our entire sect will double the expenditure, even if it is not enough for the royal family, if it goes on like this, the strength of those small families will soon surpass us." ”
Lin Tianming said with a smile: "People are sect masters, you have to listen to others, tomorrow I will ask more than a thousand mansions to come over and ask for double the coals and silver, and see how Sect Master Lin solves it." ”
Lin Chen originally just didn't want to pay attention to these casual things and deal with them casually, but at this time, he heard that Lin Tianming had just finished speaking.
Lin Chen immediately said: "If you dare to let a thousand mansions come to me for money, then I will let them all go to your place for dinner, I advise you not to spread the messy news, my previous family is in ruins, this is my own clan, and it is also the place where my grandfather once lived, I didn't want to take care of it, since I managed it, I must completely listen to me." ”
After Lin Chen finished speaking, Lin Shuyao and Lin Zangjian all kept silent, and from this point Lin Chen suppressed at least three people in terms of momentum.
"Well, the subordinates will retire, just solve the incident like this, then there will be more and more things looking for you in the future. ”
After Lin Shuyao and the others finished speaking, they collectively retreated, and Lin Chen walked to the gate and looked at a few people from afar.
At this time, Lin Mo walked from behind the screen and said, "Sect Master Lin, you are the first to hear about taking office, you see that these people can't manage it at all, they are annoying with some trivial things all day long, and no one else in this sect can cope with it except you." ”
"Just the annual food and clothing allowance, they can ask for five times or ten times, and they need more to expand their strength and cultivation to form a confrontation with the Zongmen Mansion. ”
Lin Mo told Lin Chen about the incident.
"So that's the case, if that's the case, pass on my order, and all the families will reduce the amount of money to open the mansion, to just enough food and clothing. ”
After Lin Chen heard this, he immediately said.
"It's not okay to do this, if it goes on like this, everyone will rebel together and eventually push you down. ”
"You're going against everybody. ”
Lin Mo hurriedly admonished.
"I'm thinking about it. ”
Lin Chen inquired about his grandfather's ancestral home, and walked to the courtyard alone, because of the Immortal Venerable in the early morning, the decoration here was very exquisite, and there was a team of ten people at the door.
