Chapter 504: A Fait accompli
On the afternoon of the second day, Jiang Feng and his entourage finally received the last stop of the agreed eight cities, Hongda City.
This city, like the neighboring Fuxian City, is located at the southern foot of the barren mountain between the Qianshan Sect and the Tianyin Temple, with few plains and many hills, but compared to most of the counties and towns of the Qianshan Sect, the property situation here is already much better, just starting the second-order high-grade spiritual land in the east of Fuxian City is enough to make Jiang Feng excited, not to mention the several streams rich in spiritual energy that penetrate from the barren mountains, which are enough to nourish thousands of acres of spiritual fields.
It is a pity that the downstream of these streams does not belong to the jurisdiction of the two cities, so Jiang Feng has sent Lu Tianming, Zhao Liangdi and others into the mountain, striving to find a suitable place in the mountain before Lizong takes over the six cities, and find a way to intercept several of the streams with abundant water, so as to keep the benefits in the territory of the Qianshan Sect as much as possible.
Different from the treatment of the other six cities, Jiang Feng did not loot the shops in the city, but confiscated all the shops that originally belonged to Tianyin Temple and sealed them so that they could be incorporated into the sect's property in the future. For the various families who are willing to follow the Kushan Temple and join the Asama Sect, they also temporarily settle here. Otherwise, Wu Tiande will be "persuaded" to leave here as soon as possible.
For a while, the price of land and houses in the two cities plummeted, Jiang Feng took advantage of the situation to demarcate areas separately, allowing his monks and families who defected to the Qianshan Sect to buy, and stipulated that they could be sold to the monks of the sect at double the price in the future.
Because of the strategy of letting the six cities of the Lizong surround the second city of the Asa Mountain Sect, Jiang Feng also changed his plan to move all the Terran Dingkou in the two cities. In order to maintain the stability of this place, Li Zong will definitely settle a large number of demon mortal customs to these six cities to dilute the mortal customs of the human race here, so that in the case of being surrounded by the demon clan, these mortal human beings will stay here and will not be lost.
After the change of thinking, the Xuanhua work of the two brothers was much smoother, and when the statistics came up, the number of ordinary people who finally agreed to defect to the Asshan Sect in the eight cities reached 9,000, of which 3,000 people will stay in these two cities. As for the monks, there are three who build the foundation and seven who practice qi.
Most of the ten monks belonged to three families.
Ma Yuanzhou, a three-fold monk from Fuxian City, originally had some false positions, but it was not prominent, his son and nephew, Ma Mingde and Ma Mingjie, were all monks in the early stage of Qi training, and together they led the family to eighty-five Dingkou and joined the Qianshan Sect.
Long Bo'an, Long Bojun brothers, from Hongda City, the former builds two foundations, the latter practices qi sevenfold, originally the garrison of Hongda City, is a believer in the Ku Lonely Temple, the family is not much, only twenty-two people, but the two of them are very enthusiastic about joining the Assanyama Sect because of the reason of seeing, and mobilized more than 200 people from the family to stay here, Jiang Feng had the intention to appoint him to continue to serve as the guard here, but he was stopped by the visibility, but he personally persuaded the two to lead the family and move directly to Luochuan, I don't know how he did the persuasion work, at least in Jiang Feng's opinion, the two came out of the tent, which was extremely happy;
Sun Xianzhang, from Chaoshan City, built a foundation of two monks, when Jiang Feng and the others plundered, this fang once resisted stubbornly, and then persuaded by Wei Ruoguang to join the Qianshan Sect, there is a daughter named Sun Siling, practicing qi threefold, the family has very few Dingkou, only nine people, and there is no influence in Chaoshan City.
The remaining three Qi practitioners are wandering around here as loose cultivators, named Wang Ping, Zhao Zhiyang, and Liu Hong, all of whom are in the middle of Qi training, presumably they have not been able to find a suitable livelihood here, so Jiang Feng and the others came to join as soon as they arrived. Jiang Feng was originally suspicious of this kind of monk who had no heels, but considering that the sect suffered a lot of losses in the first battle, it was the time to employ people, so he also accepted them, but whether they could be reused or not had to be carefully examined.
At this point, counting Song Yuanyuan, who defected before, and Gu Yansi, a foundation building monk in Renshou City who was sent to Xiling County to be imprisoned by Jiang Feng, and monks below the Jindan Realm, Jiang Feng accepted a total of four foundation building and eight Qi refining, of course, Gu Yansi has not succeeded in persuading him to surrender, and this will have to wait until this matter is over before he can go to Xiling County to solve it.
At the level of monks, the biggest gain is still the two of them, Jianxing and Hongzhi, who originally had disciples, but all of them were sent to the east to support Tianluomen, and they have not yet returned.
As for the mundane, the scale of three thousand people, theoretically speaking, is enough to establish a county in Asakyama Zongping Town, but there is already Xiling County in the left near, and Jiang Feng doesn't want to flood this special treatment, but the traces left by Tianyin Temple must be removed.
Therefore, on the day of the occupation, Hongda City was renamed "Hongshan Town", and Fuxian City was renamed "Punan Town", and all the properties of the four courtyards were directly allocated to Kushan Temple and handed over to the people designated by Jianhe and Hongzhi to be responsible for management. The signs of the Tianyin Temple sect on the houses and mansions were all removed and replaced.
On this occasion, Jiuling Town in the west of the Qianshan Sect was merged into the neighboring Fuyuan Town, Xiashan Town was merged into the neighboring Guanquan Town, Shuiye Town was merged into the neighboring Beichen Town, and the adjacent towns in the sect were also adjusted and merged, and finally included in the newly acquired Hongshan Town and Punan Town, a total of five counties, twenty-two towns, especially the number of the latter, which was equivalent to more than half of the number, this order was directly conveyed through Zheng Yiyu, and was immediately executed by Zheng Luda, the general affairs elder who stayed in the sect, and Wei Ruoqi, the general deacon.
At the same time, the mortal procession that had agreed to go north immediately set out, first to the northeast, from Xiling County to Zongzong, to the northwest, and finally settled in the three towns of Fuyuan Town, Guanquan Town, and Beichen Town. At the same time, the demon clan Dingkou of the three towns all moved, and settled in Dayi County and Nuangu County respectively, which cost sixty third-order, Jiang Feng had ordered his apprentice Jiang Chengzi to take it away, and handed it over to many links in the sect.
One third of them will be handed over to Wei Jie, the town guard of Xiling County, to compensate for the small human family that entered the hinterland of the Qianshan Sect through this place, and the other two-thirds will be handed over to Li Youde, the town guard of Nuangu County, and Shen Junmao, the town guard of Dayi County, respectively, to settle the demon clan Dingkou who has moved to the two counties, and at the same time to build the necessary facilities as soon as possible for the new three towns in the west to improve the conditions there.
These spirit stones naturally came from naked looting, in addition to the cost of relocation and settling down and the related miscellaneous inputs, in Renshou City and the six cities that could be looted, a total of eighty-five third-order stones were plundered, of course, this is the part that will be incorporated into the sect's treasury, at least half of them are materials, not real spirit stones. On the other hand, there were still materials of the same value that fell into the hands of the monks who went south with Jiang Feng and participated in the war.
Although it seems to be a good thing, after all, the surviving sect monks have plenty of money at hand. However, Jiang Feng had a lot of hidden worries in his heart, which would make the subsequent incentives within the sect weak because of the small number of rewards, and would widen the gap between the rich and the poor among the monks in the sect, becoming a potential unstable factor.
At this point, Jiang Feng had some solutions in his heart, but it was not yet mature, and he planned to deal with this matter as soon as he returned to Luochuan.
Now, the most important thing is to integrate Hongshan Town and Punan Town into the Qianshan Sect as soon as possible, before the armistice agreement is reached, it will become a fait accompli, the Qing Yuzong has indeed gained an advantage in the Eastern Front Tianluomen, but the territory there is not able to divide the profit to the Qianshan Sect thousands of miles away, even if Wan Yuting is willing to move the border line south, the Qianshan Sect, which originally had little border with it, will not take much advantage, and the final benefit is still the Jincheng faction and the Huanglong faction.
As for the old land of Lelinmen in the north, how to divide it is probably the focus of disputes within the alliance.
............
To the north of Lelin Gate, Tongguang City, not far from the border of the Asama Sect.
Wu Quanzhong and Dou Jinfan reunited at the Qingfeng Inn to summarize the harvest of their respective actions. After receiving Jiang Feng's order, the two of them worked non-stop in the territory of Lelinmen, not letting go of every family that had some intersections, but in the end, the harvest was not big.
I have to say that the signboard of the Asayama sect is not easy to use here.
Although with the fermentation of various news, the chaos has continued and has a tendency to intensify, but the various monk families here are still calm, or in other words, they seem to have already found a new dock to dock, which is natural, originally Lelinmen was a part of the Jincheng faction, and it was only separated not long ago, and now it is enough to go back. As for the Assayama Sect, which is not strong, few people will consider it.
Dou Jinfan is okay, the Changning Chamber of Commerce has some influence here, and he himself is a prefecture-level monk, so many people still treat him as a guest, push the cup and change the lamp, and euphemistically say that his family is not in a hurry now, and he doesn't want to be involved too much with the sect.
Wu Quanzhong was miserable, after reporting his identity, he was closed door once out of four times, and he couldn't see the main owner twice, and he often threw out a housekeeper even if he coped with the matter, and the remaining one was not lukewarm, chatting about what he had seen and heard in the near future, drinking a few cups of tea, and then sending him out of the door without being humble or arrogant.
Two small families, this is the result of the two, and these two small families, did not finalize, but fortunately, the two did not put all their energy on winning over the monks, the day before yesterday, taking advantage of the fire in the inner mansion of the head of the sect, the large treasury of the sect was broken by the unnamed monks, the two took advantage of the chaos from the hands of the mortals who took advantage of the fire to rob, collected more than 900 books, and two volumes of mental methods back, and did not spend much spirit stones.
Two volumes of mental methods, one is called "Jiading Zhuben Mental Method", and the other is called "Thick Soil Nayuan Quenching Technique", Dou Jinfan has seen it, it can be regarded as a good technique, and it is more suitable for Xuan-level monks to cultivate, so Wu Quanzhong decided that when the head returns to Luochuan, he will hand over these two mental methods, which can be regarded as a credit.
"It's a pity that we can't use force. "Dou Jinfan is a little regretful.
"It's naturally not good to use strong, although Leng Zhangmen has fallen, but now Lelinmen is still part of the Jincheng League, but the dragons have no leader. β
"Elder Wu, as far as you can see, who will be the new master of the Lelin Sect? Leng Tingtao's relatives are now missing, and his cronies Li Rulin and Kong Sifan have not been able to turn around. β
"Except for Li Rulin and Kong Sifan, the most famous person left here is none other than Yang Shidu, but this person doesn't seem to have the idea of being independent. Wu Quanzhong rubbed his chin for a long time, "I've seen him, although he is collecting the rest of the people, and there are signs of temporarily maintaining the sect, but according to the other people I contacted by knocking on the side, they all said that Yang Shidu did not mean to defect to the Jincheng faction and the Huanglong faction. β
"You don't want to vote for Chixiamen, right?" Dou Jinfan, who had been operating in Chixiamen for many years, suddenly thought of this possibility.
"Really. Why didn't I think of it?" Wu Quanzhong suddenly woke up, "In this way, I really have to guard against it, this Lelinmen can be regarded as a member of the Jincheng League, if this Yang Shidu leads people to Chixiamen, then the matter will be complicated." β
"I went overnight to find an old relationship and find out a thing or two. Dou Jinfan had an idea, "You speed up the report to the master, if this matter is true, you have to prevent it, it is related to the interests of the sect, and you must ask the head for advice." "The Changning Chamber of Commerce has now moved almost all of its industries to the Qianshan Sect, although it has not directly joined the sect, but Dou Jinfan, like Dou Jinqiu, has faintly regarded himself as a member of this small sect.
One is prosperous, and the other is lost, of course he hopes that the Asayama Sect can go further.
But you can't fight for it, business is important, but it's just business.
............
Li Rulin, Meng Dayi, Pu Qiuyang, Yu Xiangqian.
Li Yunsheng, Meng Xinshu, Meng Xinkong, Pu Fangzhi, Pu Fangduo, Yu Shaotai.
This is Jiang Feng's prisoner in exchange for Song Zixun, four Xuan-level, six spiritual-level, except for Li Rulin, the rest are selected by Wei Ruoguang and others according to the actual situation, these candidates are also very particular, Li Yunsheng is the son of Li Rulin's family, and the rest of the people belong to three families.
This is the need to win over, Jiang Feng hopes that some of them can be "grateful", accept their own recruitment, and join the Qianshan Sect, these people have personally experienced the fall of Leng Tingtao, so they must know in their hearts that most of the Lelin Sect without the heirs of adult monks will not be able to survive.
However, Li Rulin refused Jiang Feng's wooing.
"Master Jiang, the grace of saving his life, remember it all his life, and dare not forget, but Li is not talented, he has served Leng Zhangmen for many years, and now he is on the battlefield, I am also disheartened, I don't want to go out, I just want to find a mountain seclusion, but I am dead. β
Jiang Feng had the heart to persuade him, but after a few rounds, Li Rulin still refused, and even Li Yunsheng, a disciple of his family, politely refused his own wooing, which made Jiang Feng quite unhappy, and said in his heart I spent two additional places as a spirit-level monk to exchange you back, and in the end you are not interested.
However, Li Rulin is indeed a talent, Jiang Feng has experienced the idea he gave Leng Tingtao before, and understands that this is indeed a smart person, and now that he has been replaced by a captive who knows about it, he has heard a lot of stories from his absence.
These details are all from Xiang Qian, who originally served as a deacon in Lelinmen, ranked second, and cultivated to Xuan-level Triple, he was the first and only Xuan-level monk who agreed to join the Qianshan Sect, and Yu Shaotai, who was spiritual-level seven-fold, naturally followed his father's decision, and the Yu family had some industries in the western part of Lelinmen, which was quite close to the Qianshan Sect, and it was very convenient to move over.
"Rulin is actually a person who pays a lot of attention to honor. Yu Xiangqian came to report alone afterwards, "Moreover, he usually likes the icing on the cake, rather than sending charcoal in the snow." β
Understood, the most critical problem is that Li Rulin did not take a fancy to the Qianshan Sect, compared to the previous Lelinmen, the Qianshan Sect is really worse, but now that the Lelinmen has existed in name only, what is the comparison, in other words, as Leng Tingtao's think tank, when the Jincheng faction split, he was naturally the one who came up with the idea, and it is unlikely that Su Liqing will accept him, so he can only go to the Huanglong faction Zuo Zicicada.
Of course, he may have other ideas. Jiang Feng actually didn't want to give up, on the one hand, the four Xuan-level monks, only Yu Xiang sneaked to himself, it was really a little little, and he still wanted to work harder, on the other hand, what he valued the most was actually Li Rulin, like Kong Sifan, who had fallen, this person had some influence in the hometown of Lelinmen, if he could defect to the Qianshan Sect, it would be extremely beneficial for him to absorb the remnants of Leng Tingtao.
"Do you want to use force and directly announce to the outside world that Li Rulin has defected to our sect?" At the temporary meeting, Wu Tiande, who had a bad idea, made such a suggestion.
"No, if you spread it, it will ruin the reputation of the master. Wei Ruoguang immediately raised objections.
Jiang Feng also thought so, he also knew that his reputation was average, and he was more concerned about getting the benefits of his hands than face, otherwise he would not have risked being attacked in the alliance and swallowed Hongshan Town and Punan Town in advance regardless of his appearance.
But it is a matter of employing people, and he doesn't want to leave hidden dangers, so he decided to deal with other affairs here first according to the advice of the insight, Li Rulin said goodbye to the north on the same day, but the remaining Meng Dayi and Pu Qiuyang stayed temporarily to help for the sake of face, the former is the brother of Meng Daxin, another prefecture-level monk in Lelinmen, he stayed here, but also to wait for the peace negotiations after the war, he can find a way to take back his brother's body back to his hometown for burial, Jiang Feng wanted to agree to help, but on the one hand, the body should be in the hands of Jinguang Pavilion, it is inconvenient to ask for it, and on the other hand, he saw that he did not have any tendency to join the Asshan Sect, so he simply abandoned this ideaγ
After handling a lot of affairs, Jiang Feng was about to send a message through Zheng Yiyu, asking Wu Quanzhong to collect Li Rulin's information, everyone has weaknesses, if he can find a breakthrough, there may be a turning point in the matter of taking over Li Rulin. At this time, I saw traces gradually appearing on the seven-colored paper.
Yang Shidu?
What kind of person is this, who may go to the Chixia Gate? This is not good, Lelinmen himself can not get it, but it can't be cheap outsiders, not to mention Chixiamen, Jiang Feng realized that things are a little tricky, Dou Jinfan's strength is enough, but he has already mentioned that he will not participate in any fighting matters, so naturally he can't force him, and the people who stay in the Qianshan Sect are all ordinary in their skills, and they are not suitable for dealing with this person. As for Guo Shucai and others, they are now in the territory of Chixiamen and have lost contact.
If you have a way, if you can't do it, report it, I'm not the leader of the alliance, and the matter of Lelinmen is obviously something that everyone in the alliance has to deal with. Jiang Feng had just had an idea, but he suddenly felt a familiar aura approaching outside the city.
Scold!
Have you successfully advanced to the Xuan level and broken through the Xuan level, Jiang Feng was overjoyed in his heart and hurriedly greeted him.
