Chapter 209: Back to Luo Chuan
The drizzle is misty and the sky is dark, which makes people's hearts feel gloomy.
Jiang Feng was dressed in black, and together with the law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao, the general affairs elder Zheng Luda, the foreign affairs elder Wu Quanzhong, the transmission elder Wei Ruoguang, the instrument fu elder Zhao Wenjun, the Wei family head Wei Jie, the newly promoted Xuan-level monk Wei Chengyu, the merger of the Mengjiao Division's temporary deacon Fan Vulgar Zhang Pule, the deacon of the Rolling Shutter Division Wang Yi, the deacon of the Rites Department Wu Xianghua, the deacon of the Mingjing Division Zheng Yiyu, the deacon of the Construction Service Division Ding Baozhen, the deacon of the War Division Huangfu Runsheng, and a number of monks who have cultivated above the spiritual level. The patriarch of the ordinary family with a head and face in Luochuan is together in the Fuxian Temple in the southeast of Luochuan to pay tribute to the victims of the East Lake Rebellion.
Jiang Feng simply said a few solemn words of remembrance, and according to the rules of the Qianshan Sect that have been passed down to the present, he personally covered the three monks' tombs with new soil, and planted "Wangxiang Luosong" next to it, praying that the heroic soul could be reborn in the Asshan Sect as soon as possible. All the elders and visitors are lined up in three or five to salute in turn to express their remembrance.
"In my lifetime, I will avenge Zhaoxue. β
There were three monks who died in the rebellion of Donghu County, respectively from the original family Ren Xiaolong, Zhou Cailing of the Zhou Xing family, and Chen Xin selected by the county, eighteen ordinary people, including twelve soldiers in the war, regardless of whether they were born during their lifetimes, they can be buried in the ancestral graves of their respective families according to the rules, and their relatives can be given priority to be selected for public office in place of them if they wish, and their families are given the plaque of "Loyal and Brave Qianqiu" to commend the dedication of their children to the sect.
All the pensions previously agreed upon by the law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao and others have been issued in place before Jiang Feng returns to Luochuan, because there are no spirit stones in the big treasury, so Jiang Hai coordinated the transfer of spirit stones from the income paid by the Changning Chamber of Commerce in Donghu County to offset the needs, Jiang Feng is quite satisfied with the amount of the pension, the Qianshan Sect is indeed poor and weak, but it can't save money in this regard, otherwise I wonder who will serve the sect in the future.
Zhou Xing, Li Youde and Shen Junmao did not attend the memorial service, they each had their own duties and could not leave without permission, but they sent memorial items according to the routine, with Nuangu County guarding Li Youde being the most abundant, followed by Dayi County guarding Shen Junmao, and Donghu County guarding Zhou Xing the least, but the quantity and quality did not lose etiquette. Jiang Feng really wanted to comfort Zhou Xing in person, after all, among the monks who died, Zhou Cailing was a disciple of the Zhou family, and Chen Xin was Zhou Xing's apprentice, but thinking about it, maybe Zhou Xing didn't come, and it would inevitably be sad.
As for Qiu Zhenzhen, she had already returned to Luochuan in advance with great interest, and she was also dressed in tightly wrapped black, standing in the crowd with a solemn expression, as an example, as the "lady in charge" and a Xuan-level monk, she could stand behind many elders, before the deacon of the Sixth Division, but she knew her own situation, and when Jiang Feng was also present, she stood with Jiang Hai.
Jiang Feng didn't have time to pay attention to her for the time being, and after the memorial service, he glanced at her, stopped Wang Xiandao, the law enforcement elder who was about to leave, and went to Fengyu Tower together.
Last night, after he came back, Jiang Feng had already met with the foreign affairs elder Wu Quanzhong and the general affairs elder Zheng Luda first, and listened to the former's recent foreign affairs activities.
Jiang Feng explained to Wu Quanzhong that in a month, he would take him to Luoyingmen to prepare for the construction of the Luoyingmen annex in Taoyuan City, which made Wu Quanzhong very shocked.
Recently, the construction of the houses of the Assayama sect in the neighboring sects is in full swing, although the funds are no longer a problem, but the employment situation has been stretched, he has to start thinking about whether he should find the general affairs elder Zheng Luda to ask for a few clever people. Fortunately, the work of the Assanyama Sect in the foreign courtyard has always been mainly carried out by mortals, if it is necessary to call a monk, it will be even more difficult to plan, but he knows in his heart that the supervisor of the other courtyard will be replaced by a monk sooner or later, which is a common configuration of various sects, for this reason, he also directly suggested that the head of the sect, Jiang Feng, should consider this aspect of the matter earlier, and send a few spiritual-level monks to experience it in order to prepare early.
As for the general affairs elder Zheng Luda, he mainly communicates with Beimu County related matters, on the way back, Jiang Feng has personally checked the situation in Beimu County, the speed is much slower than he imagined, not as decisive and fast as the previous three counties, Zheng Luda also mentioned that the final details have been agreed, just wait for the Chinese people of the Linglang Chamber of Commerce to come, you can sign a contract, on the measurement and delivery of the land in Beimu County, he has communicated with Ding Baozhen, the deacon of the Construction Division, it has basically been completed, just wait for the Linglang Chamber of Commerce funds to be in place, you can start construction, the pacification of the aborigines, the local security, he has already communicated with the Department of Etiquette, the Spiegel Division and the War Division have communicated, and the other party has made proper preparations.
The work of the three towns of Fuyuan is also progressing smoothly, as Jiang Feng is worried, if it is not for Zheng Luda to recruit a group of miners first, maybe someone with a heart will take the lead, all the miners will be assigned to work in the mines of the Asshan Sect all over the country, instead of staying in the three towns of Fuyuan, now the labor price there has risen three times, the mysterious merchant that suddenly appeared, has stopped recruiting, and instead introduced laborers from other sects, Zheng Luda has approved the application list, the first batch of sixty laborers from Lizong has entered Fuyuan Town, and started the preliminary prospecting workγ
"Good work. Just like when communicating with Wu Quanzhong and Zheng Luda, Jiang Feng and Wang Xiandao sat down and said the same thing in the first sentence.
"Where, this is what I should do. This sentence made Wang Xiandao a little confused, hard work, what kind of aspect does it mean, but there is nothing wrong with the words.
"What happened in Donghu County was very dangerous at that time, right?"
"It's true, but now that I think about it, it's because I haven't moved my muscles and bones for a long time, and the fight is a little rusty. Wang Xiandao showed a slightly humble smile, and the thrilling scene at that time was vivid, "It's not like the master, and he often fights with people." β
"I was also forced to catch ducks on the shelves. We, the Asagama Sect, have always been kind to others, and for seven generations, there have been few such things. You also handled the pension matter well. β
"Yes, those who shed blood for the sect should be compensated, but the meritorious people have not yet been rewarded enough because of the financial resources of the sect. β
"There will be. β
Jiang Feng knew what he meant, although he was still quite abundant in the spirit stones in his hand now, and he could also come up with a suitable reward, but the reason why he found Wang Xiandao was to solve the problem of the sect's treasury through this matter. Whether it is a pension or a commendation, theoretically speaking, it should be spent by the large treasury of the sect, not by him personally, but on the one hand, the treasury is still an empty treasury, maybe at the end of the year with the handover of the three counties, it will be better, on the other hand, the power of the treasury is not in his own hands.
"Xiandao, what do you think about the management of the Great Treasury within the sect?"
Huh? Is this coming?
Wang Xiandao was shocked in his heart, about the matter of the sect's treasury, Wu Quanzhong, the elder of foreign affairs, mentioned it to himself, and he was resolutely opposed in his heart, although he thought about it from his position, as a normal head, it was extremely unreasonable to not be able to control the sect's treasury, but this restriction came from the agreement between the Wang family, the Wu family and the Zheng family, when Jiang Feng took over as the head of the sect.
The cost of the "Black Snake Spirit" ceremony reached two third-order at that time, almost emptying half of the floating wealth of the three families, and at that time, in order to avoid the interruption of funds, they had to sell some family artifacts to get through the difficulties. And all this is simply because Jiang Feng is the rightful successor, and the ninth generation of the head of the family is appointed by me.
For Wu Quanzhong's suggestion, he did not give a clear answer, this suggestion cannot be said to be reasonable, after all, there was an agreement before, but it can be said to be reasonable, therefore, he gave a vague reply of "discuss again, the sect is busy with affairs, don't be busy changing these vain things", and now, when it was mentioned by the head Jiang Feng, the same answer does not seem to be appropriate.
"I think it can be handed over to someone who is good at arithmetic, fair and unbiased. β
Wang Xiandao thought about it, such an answer seemed to be more pertinent, neither handed over the treasury to the head of the house, nor showed his own opposition, he knew that if this matter went to the Council of Elders, Wu Quanzhong, who proposed this matter, would definitely raise his hands in favor, Wei Ruoguang would most likely still abstain, Zheng Luda had more than half a probability of agreeing, Zhao Wenjun was the grass on the wall, but there was only one Xuan-level monk in the family, and most of him would agree, that is, only he would resolutely oppose it, so the only thing he could do was to drag, or find a way to push in his favorγ
In fact, for the large amount of spirit stones he had paid, time has passed, and he has long lost his pain, and the sect is currently thriving, judging from the situation of this handling of the pension, these spirit stones are nothing to the future of the Asshan Sect. It's just that he hasn't changed his opposition yet, Wu Quanzhong privately persuaded himself to let go, to be honest, he was also a little moved, and knew that there was no point in being stubborn like this.
But people have to insist on something, don't they? Otherwise, would I have lost my prestige for so many years, he comforted himself like this, and did not continue to say the words, "I will see that you are in charge personally."
"Who's more suitable?"
Wang Xiandao didn't expect Jiang Feng to continue to ask, and before he could answer, he heard the head of the house add another sentence, "It's best to be able to convince the public, we are weak in the shallow mountains, if we are newcomers, we can also experience one or two, there is always a process from unfamiliarity to familiarity." β
Listening to the first half of the sentence, Wang Xiandao thought that Jiang Feng was alluding to himself saying that sentence, but the second half of the sentence didn't seem to mean that, he really asked me to recommend the right candidate?
"There are too many affairs left behind by the Asagama Sect before, and I may often not be in charge of the sect in the future, and someone needs to be there for everything. β
"This ...... Among the many monks, it is indeed difficult to consider. β
Speaking of monks, Wang Xiandao thought of Wei Jie, when he was in charge of the seventh generation, Wei Jie was in charge of the big treasury, but now it is different. On the one hand, the Wei family has just added a Xuan-level monk, and no more help can be added, on the other hand, Qiu Zhenzhen, as the wife of the head, is also suitable for cultivation, if Wei Jie is mentioned, considering Qiu Zhenzhen's identity, may be a more suitable candidate, therefore, Wang Xiandao simply investigated the mundane from his heart.
"How about Wang Juefu, he is virtuous and does not avoid relatives, although he is a mortal, he has been in charge of the family treasury for many years. He mentioned a layman in his family.
"Yes. β
Wang Xiandao was stunned for a moment, the head of the house agreed too quickly, I just made a suggestion, I didn't expect you to agree, and before he could come to his senses, he heard Jiang Feng add again.
"After all, the mortal body is limited in energy, take two apprentices, how about Ding Lingyu and Shen Chengsheng? Ding Lingyu's mind is quite fine, although Shen Chengsheng is young, but he is a monk, I think he is average, the road is difficult, it is better to change the direction to cultivate one or two, and the future can also boost the Shen family, after Shen Junmao went to Dayi County, the family's affairs, now there is a lack of people who can take responsibility, starting from assisting in the management of the big library, it is also a kind of exercise. β
"It's okay to do that, so as not to lose the inheritance. "These two people, Wang Xiandao has no opinion, the Ding family and the Shen family are still friendly with themselves, but Ding Lingyu, I don't know if the head of the house has accepted her to fill the house, I guess I will be more or less interested in the head, but the main person in charge is still the Wang family.
"Be impartial and not partial, lest families have opinions. If you have more than twenty second-order expenses, remember to report it to me, and in the event of a particularly urgent situation where I am not in the sect, you elders can discuss and decide at your discretion, and more than three people can agree. β
"Yes, naturally. β
"That's good," Jiang Feng stood up suddenly, his spiritual power danced in his hand, and he took down the jade box placed on the roof beam of the Wind and Rain Pavilion with his soul mark and handed it to Wang Xiandao.
"Manifest the Tao and open him. β
