Chapter 103: After the Fact

Qi Xuansu ended this trip to the Cave of Paitti and returned to Xinxijing.

There was news from Taiying's side, and Lin Bufan was also recruited, this kid didn't resist the pressure in the end, it turned out that he was Chuck Chel's person. Strictly speaking, the two belong to a cooperative relationship, Chack Chell helped Lin Bufan improve his realm cultivation, similar to Qi Niang's help to Qi Xuansu, so Lin Bufan can rise rapidly, and Lin Bufan of course has to help Chack Chell deal with Ichichel.

Qi Xuansu has already completed the task given to him by the Daomen, he is in a good mood, and he doesn't care about Lin Bufan's problem, after all, Chakchel is already dead, so let Taiying dispose of it as appropriate.

For the next period of time, Qi Xuansu did not immediately point the finger at the worms, after all, this is a big problem, and it is a stubborn problem, it cannot be solved in a moment and a half, and the top priority is to rebuild the espionage system of the Northern Continent.

Beichen Hall is special here, it is not only an internal guard, but also in charge of foreign affairs, both internal and external, resulting in various internal institutions in Beichen Hall are very complex and huge, and Tiangang Hall cannot be compared with it. After all, there is also the Lingguan Mansion outside the Tiangang Hall, and most of the Lingguan affairs have been separated, and the Lingguan Mansion is responsible for it, but the Beichen Hall has not been independent, but has also encroached on part of the power of the Ancestral Hall and the Fengxian Hall, encroaching on the Fengxian Hall in internal affairs, and encroaching on the ancestral hall in external affairs.

Doing things in Beichentang often requires the division of labor and cooperation of multiple internal departments, and the need for central liaison and overall coordination, which is where leaders must play a role. Originally, Qingwei Zhenren was in charge, but Qingwei Zhenren wanted Qi Xuansu to take charge personally, so it fell on Qi Xuansu's head.

In this way, the difficulty is very different. There is no one who dares not to listen to what Qingwei Zhenren says, and it runs smoothly naturally, like an arm. Qi Xuansu is different, no one dares to refute his face in the open, but whether he is Li Changge or not, it is difficult to say in private, the execution is always unfavorable, there are always such and such problems, and there are various reasons to embarrass Qi Xuansu.

This is to suppress Qi Xuansu's limelight.

Because Qi Xuansu had just fought a "big victory", although the main force was the three immortals and Ihichel, Qi Xuansu followed the side drum, but Jiang Dazhen and the Heavenly Master both intended to pave the way for Qi Xuansu, focusing on highlighting Qi Xuansu's ability, and Qi Xuansu played a very important role in the official caliber of the Daomen.

Now many people are saying that Qi Xuan has a big palm teaching atmosphere.

Too dazzling.

Qi Xuansu can have today, mainly due to three factors: personal ability, there are people above, and luck is good enough.

Among them, personal ability is relatively less important, Maxima often has, Bole does not often have, and there are people above who are the most important, so since ancient times, the grace of knowing and encountering is also called the grace of recreation, and the grace of saving lives and the grace of birth and raising are juxtaposed.

There are people above Qi Xuansu, so no one swallows up his credit, no one gets his promotion, no one

said that he was still young and waited, no one asked him to give the opportunity to his seniors, no one used him as a tool, let alone painted a big pie, after all, the power to promote was in the hands of the higher-ups, and it was not the turn of ordinary people to paint cakes for Qi Xuansu to satisfy his hunger.

Qi Xuansu doesn't have to look at anyone's face, he doesn't have to be a cow or a horse, he doesn't have so many people who are sophisticated, as long as he does things well, he can be promoted on time, and he will be promoted for extra meritorious service, and the better he does, the faster he will be promoted.

It is only in this case that personal competence becomes meaningful and important.

To put it bluntly, if you can't even get into the racetrack, then what's the point of a Maxima running fast?

If you want to ask why, why should Qi Xuansu be promoted?

The key is the irreplaceability of Qi Xuansu, except for Qi Xuansu, no one can stop Li Changge.

The Heart of the Immortal Stone is the key.

This was given by Qi Niang, and it was also earned by Qi Xuansu himself.

However, just having the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" is nothing more than an immortal, which is far from enough. Li Changge's pressure, Zhang Yuelu's family affairs, plus some interpersonal relationships, turned from non-relatives to relatives and relatives, which made Qi Xuansu successful.

Creation makes people.

As for luck enough, it's very general.

For example, when Qi Xuansu was the chief of the Borneo Provincial Government, Jin Que issued a task to fill the company

In the financial deficit left over from the two wars, Qi Xuansu just caught up with the melee of the Kingdom of Ibia, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the Kingdom of Lune, reorganized the Nanyang United Trading Company, presided over the sale of ordnance and weapons to foreign countries, made a lot of money, and successfully completed the task of Jinque, and was commended, laying the foundation for his future promotion to the chief deputy hall master.

It is said that martial arts are cultivated, but it seems that Qi Xuansu has made great achievements in cultural governance.

This is pure luck, and it can't be said that the Holy Court deliberately fought a civil war in order to make Qi Xuansu make meritorious contributions.

Now Qi Xuansu's resume is not only dazzling, but also comprehensive, and he is about to become the youngest real person to know, it is not too much to say that he has a big master.

In this case, it is natural to find some trouble for Qi Xuansu and suppress Qi Xuansu's limelight.

On the other hand, Zhang May has been familiar with the business in Xingang recently, and he is not in a hurry to "make contributions", after all, this opportunity is not easy to come by, and he tore his face with his sister in exchange, and he regretted it afterwards.

The people here in Xingang know the relationship between Zhang May and Qi Xuansu, and treat him very politely, even a little flattering, and often entertain Zhang May.

There is a good saying that the eldest young master of a small family is far more difficult to serve than the young master of a large family. Because of the fierce competition within the big family, the less important children within the big family are all proficient in human affairs and sophistication early.

Zhang May is the little master of the big family, the son of the Zhang family is very famous and can scare people, but it is nothing within the family, and he must learn to observe words and looks, so he is also easy to deal with these.

Someone contacted him again today, it was someone from Xidaomen, called He Shaoyang.

The two agreed to meet in the evening and come out for a sit.

The construction of Xingang in Xidaomen is not a high-rise building on wasteland, there is a certain foundation here, but it is very backward, and this time it is a comprehensive renovation and expansion. Only the part that was expanded was wasteland, so the current Newport has taken shape.

Many merchants and aristocrats have invested a lot of Taiping money in this place to build a prosperous neighborhood, similar to Goolan Washe.

He Shaoyang made an appointment with Zhang May to listen to the music, and he sent a car to pick up Zhang May.

At the appointed time, Zhang May walked out of his temporary residence and saw an inconspicuous carriage, but when he boarded the carriage, he found that there was a hole inside, which was very luxurious, and even had a small wine cabinet.

He Shaoyang poured Zhang May a glass of wine, and the carriage drove slowly.

Zhang May lifted the curtain and looked out, although the wasteland in the distance was pitch black, there were still some lights of night battles, and some dark shadows of unfinished buildings, but the neighborhood they were going to was brightly lit, with people coming and going, and it was very lively.

There are also some special places, there are women on the street to solicit customers - Xidaomen did not prohibit this oldest profession, shouting morality on the premise that the upper class can really set an example, Xidaomen probably has no confidence, and does not make that bit of how sacred, in the name of responsibility and so on, simply let go.

Soon, the carriage entered a quiet compound, and the plaque hung the words "Peach Blossom Spring", which Zhang Wuyue judged should be a courtyard.

Zhang May can be regarded as having seen the world and knows what the courtyard is, it can be said that there is everything in it, not just women and listening to music.

The carriage stopped, and someone opened the door for Zhang May.

Zhang May got out of the car and looked around, it was almost out of the scope of the bustling neighborhood, it was relatively quiet, and there were fewer lights and voices. The building is very exquisite, quite the style of the Jiangnan garden, at this time has stopped a lot of carriages, the quality is good, and the owner of the carriage will not be an idle person.

He Shaoyang led Zhang May to walk inside, and a young woman who still had charm greeted him, "Mr. He, everything has been arranged."

This woman's posture is also quite good, as if the fruit is ripe, especially somewhere, majestic and majestic.

He Shaoyang pointed at Zhang May, "It's a distinguished guest from Yujing tonight, you have to serve well, otherwise you will smash the signboard, don't blame me for not reminding you."

The young woman smiled and said, "That's for sure, you two come with me."

The woman twisted and twisted in front of her to lead the way to a detached courtyard.

A middle-aged man was already waiting here.

He Shaoyang is the matchmaker, and this middle-aged man is the main one.

He Shaoyang introduced to Zhang May, "This is Qian Gaogong from the port, Qian Xisheng."

Qian Xisheng is a fat man, born with a three-point smile, a pair of eyes like two lines, full of essence, has stretched out his hand, "Zhang Gongzi, long admiration, long admiration!"

This is a handshake gift for Westerners, which roughly means that they do not hold weapons, show trust, and have no malicious intent.

Zhang May was used to giving up her hand, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, so she stretched out her hand and shook it with Qian Xisheng.

Zhang May only felt that Qian Xisheng's hands were very slippery and soft, as if he had touched some kind of mollusk, and a feeling of nausea suddenly appeared in his heart, but his face did not show it at all, and said, "Qian Gaogong, fortunately, fortunately."

Qian Xisheng said, "I've wanted to visit Zhang Gongzi for a long time, but I haven't been able to find a suitable opportunity. This time, Lao He said that he wanted to come out and sit down, and I said that it was great, and I could finally meet Zhang Gongzi, who had been thinking about it for a long time."

Zhang May smiled and said, "I'm not a beauty, it's a bit too much to think about it."

"Not excessive, not excessive." Qian Xisheng said, "In the eyes of my old Qian, no beauty is as good as Zhang Gongzi."

On the other side, He Shaoyang was talking to the young woman's supervisor, "I won't pick it this time, you go find a few sensible and well-behaved people to come over, don't fool me, the rest is still the old rules."

The young woman replied, "Mr. He, don't worry, I don't dare to fool you."

He Shaoyang waved his hand.

The young woman went out again, and in a short time a line of slender figures came to the courtyard and waited outside.

Zhang May glanced at it and asked knowingly, "Aren't you listening to music?"

He Shaoyang smiled, "Of course it's listening to music, but it's sung alone, which is considered a custom here."

Zhang May smiled and did not object, "There is still such a custom, then I will follow the customs."

He Shaoyang motioned for the women to come in.

There are also handmaids and maids, carrying various food boxes, who are responsible for the so-called "old rules".
