Volume 1 The Story of Asagama Chapter 43 Common Interests
Jiang Feng had to admire Wei Jie's negotiation ability, and in the face of fierce opposition from the law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao, the plan for the Wei clan to join the Council of Elders was still approved by three votes, and it did not include Jiang Feng's one vote.
The exchange conditions that can be placed on the table include a Xuan-level ninefold Gong Transmitter - Wei Ruoguang - a melee demon cultivator from the Covering Sea Gate, and a junior of Wei Jie, for which Zhao Wenjun turned to serve as the "Instrument Talisman Elder" Of course, he was not only happy to change, and got rid of the duty of passing on the gong that he was unwilling to engage in, but also received a large amount of compensation from the Wei family, worth ten second-order refining primary materials every year, for three consecutive years, although it was given in the name of donating to the construction of the Qianshan Sect, but the ruler of the actual materials was still him, Zhao Wenjun.
In addition, it also includes granting the Asakishan Sect Courtyard in the territory of Fuhaimen, with an exclusive land of sixty acres, which can be planted with spiritual grass, which is still given in the name of donations and friendship between sects; Wei Ruoguang, the spokesperson of the new Chuan Gong Elder Wei Jie, will be responsible for the detection of the natal awakening of the children of the sect and the ordinary teenagers within three years, and for this reason, he specially brought a quasi-magic weapon-level magic weapon to come. In addition, the Covering Sea Gate will send special personnel to help detect the green crystal veins and increase the production of ore.
"You guys, you're fooling around, selling the position of elder!" Wang Xiandao was furious, and he was about to leave with his sleeves brushed up. The beneficiary of the Asama Sect was the foreign affairs elder Wu Quanzhong, while the beneficiary of the ore vein was the lay elder Zheng Luda, whose family controlled most of the sect's estate.
"Elder Wang stayed," it is not Jiang Feng's purpose to break up unhappily, Wang Xiandao is already the biggest loser at this sect meeting, since the purpose of "small punishment" has been achieved, it is still very necessary to return to "a group of harmony" in a timely manner, and it is really taboo for the sect to have internal friction for internal contradictions.
"Does the head of the family still have something to bother the old man?" Wang Xiandao's face turned red, and he was still angry.
"Elder Zhao, the four of us still have some special things in cultivation that need to be discussed. Jiang Feng looked at Zhao Wenjun, who was full of wishful thinking, and slightly revealed the black snake mark on his arm.
"Okay, I'll retire first. Zhao Wenjun naturally recognized this mark, four of the five members of the Council of Elders were all beneficiaries of the Black Snake Sacrifice Ritual, and of course, they could be regarded as long-term victims. At this moment, his heart had already flown to the Instrument Rune Building, and he began to ponder about the matters related to "regaining the path of refining", and when he heard the head wake up so little, he quickly retreated, after all, the secret of the Black Snake Mark was not something he should be aware of.
Hmph, Wang Xiandao's anger has not subsided, he flicked his sleeves, and was forcibly pressed on the seat by Wu Quanzhong, a foreign affairs elder who was still good friends with him, of course, this is also his own way to find the bottom of the steps, with his cultivation, Wu Quanzhong, who is also a non-combat monk, it is impossible to leave him behind.
"Eliminate gas, eliminate gas, the overall situation is important. ”
Jiang Feng had to put on an old-fashioned look that didn't match his age, and be a peacemaker. "My breakthrough in cultivation this time is due to a discovery. He went straight to the topic and pulled the attention of the other three from the sect council to the matter of the Black Snake Spirit as soon as possible.
"It's actually quite simple. Jiang Feng saw that the three of them were already looking at him expectantly, and deliberately paused.
"As long as you cultivate in a cold enough secret room, the activity of the Black Snake Spirit will decrease, and it will enter a state of 'pseudo-hibernation', and the speed of devouring the spiritual energy will be halved. Jiang Feng naturally wouldn't tell the three of them about the more important effect of the "Demon Beast Egg", he only shared his previous experience in Lizong Xiaoyun Ridge, near the Cold Jade Pool, although he hadn't really tried to cultivate in a cold environment, but the dormancy of the Black Snake Spirit in cold conditions was indeed true.
"So," Jiang Feng turned his head to look at Foreign Affairs Elder Wu Quanzhong, who was pondering, "Everyone can be prepared, the Hanshan Sect and the four of us are going to go, only there is a cultivation ground close to the extremely cold region." ”
"Yes, I'll arrange it. Wu Quanzhong had an understanding, if it weren't for the head of the sect to wake up, he would still be thinking about where there is such an environment, whether it can be achieved with the help of the formation, how much will it cost, but he didn't expect that there would be such a region near the Qianshan Sect.
"Keep a low profile, don't tell the Hanshan faction about our attendance lineup for the time being, and only attend the Dharma in your name for the time being. I'll prepare the gifts. ”
"Yes. Wu Quanzhong showed a slightly surprised expression, originally thought that the head of the sect would share this secret and ask the three of them to share the cost of the gift of the Dao Dharma Festival, he was already ready to "bleed", but he didn't expect the head to bear it.
The other three people present finally maintained the same demeanor, and the expectation of raising their cultivation to a higher realm was where their common interests lie.
In the eyes of the monks, time is life, and higher cultivation represents a longer lifespan, and in a long life, any problem that is difficult to solve can be solved.
Jiang Feng didn't know what the mood of the elders was after the meeting, but he was in a good mood. Through the reform of the county system and the reform of the six divisions, the Asama sect eliminated the malpractice of the previous monks eating empty salaries, and released them to the construction of various places, which can accelerate the development of the sect. With the establishment of the three counties, the potential commercial tax and tariff revenues may increase in the future, which will be of great benefit to the financial situation of the sect.
Of course, if you don't think about your empty storage bag, you're in a better mood.
After deducting the forty second-order spirit stones that the county system reform paid out of his own pocket, Jiang Feng only had twelve second-order spirit stones left in his pocket, which reached a historical low again, considering the cost of the gift of the Hanshan Sect's puja, according to similar estimates, similar expenditures were no less than twenty second-order, but considering that the four people participated in the meeting together, and also borrowed the cultivation place of the Hanshan Sect to improve, this cost is estimated to climb to fifty second-order.
In other words, there are not enough spirit stones!
Bitter also!
It's not that Jiang Feng suddenly impulsively wants to take care of this matter, but after re-cutting the cake of the sect, if he wants to achieve the effect of harmony within the sect, he can't continue to exploit all parties, especially the Wang family, whose interests have been damaged, and the Wei family, who has newly entered the Council of Elders. At this time, Jiang Feng, the head of the wronged leader, could only bear it silently.
It seems that the treasure theft has to continue, and we have to strive to make a small fortune!
............
Jiang Feng came to Zhenwu City again, not alone, but brought the "girl" sent by the Ding family and the Zheng family, the two ordinary women are eighteen years old, middle and upper-handed, they can be regarded as beauties in the sect, presumably the two families thought that their cultivation had encountered a bottleneck, and they had to "spread their branches" earlier, so they sent the two of them over, even in terms of age, they were also very thoughtful, and did not violate Jiang Feng's own "marriage" age regulations.
It's really thoughtful, but it's a pity that I misunderstood the meaning. However, compared to Jiang Feng's original intention, there was no big first entry. Often walking outside the sect, Jiang Feng needs some help, although the monk will be better, but the monk itself is a scarce resource for the Ashala Sect.
Ding Lingyun and Zheng Keyi are both three generations in the family, one is a five-law phase, one is a six-law phase, and the road to the avenue can be described as quite difficult and even hopeless, compared to the previously selected Zhao Liangdi, it is not the same. However, helping Zhao Liangdi is completely out of the political need to buy time and pull Zhao Wenjun's vote over at a speed. For these two ordinary women, Jiang Feng still wanted to investigate his character first, and then decide whether to help.
Leaving the two maids at the inn, Jiang Feng came to the "Moonlight Light" commercial street alone, and the "Heqiju" herb shop.
"The seal has been sold, and it's your fair share. Ni Dabao was still smiling, and handed over fifteen variegated second-order spirit stones, "The other party wants to get this seal more than we expected." ”
"Thank you. Jiang Feng hugged his fists and accepted the spirit stone.
"It was a pleasure to work with. Any items that are not easy to sell can be handed over to our Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce to deal with, and the safety is guaranteed. ”
The routine is very deep.
Jiang Feng felt a burst of hehe, he had a "queen ant poison sac" in his hand that needed to be dealt with, but it was about Tianli Sect and the Seven Alliances, he didn't dare to guarantee that the spirit cage would not betray him, this was different from the things of the human race, the spirit cage was still a demon clan chamber of commerce after all, if there was a heavyweight coercion - this is not impossible, although Tianli Gate is a human clan sect, but the Seven Alliances are a mixed alliance of the demon race and the human race - he will be betrayed nine times out of ten.
"Not yet, I will definitely think of Brother Ni as soon as possible. "The contract with the medicinal herbs and blood ants of the spirit cage will not be delivered until the beginning of next year, although Jiang Hai has already made the pseudo identity of "Jiang Xiaobai" in advance, but as time goes by, it is a matter of time before his identity is exposed, so he does not dare to hand over the "queen ant poison sac" to the other party.
"There's something about the old man, I don't know if you're willing to run an errand. ”
"What's the matter, what's the benefit?" It is not appropriate to talk about friendship with businessmen, that is, to talk about the benefits in the first place.
"I have a shipment to be sent to the vicinity of the Poison Spring Swamp, two second-order freight. ”
"Spirit Stone Cash Payment?" "The Poisonous Spring Swamp is in the southeast of the Qianshan Sect, and the Heishuimen on the border with the Wei State is mainly located in the Poisonous Spring Swamp, but the Qianshan Sect also occupies a part.
"No, we are very short of spirit stones, you know this," Ni Dabao showed a familiar smirk, "I will give you information on the properties of the Poison Spring Swamp, if you are lucky, you will bring the properties back to Zhenwu City, and the income will not be less than this." ”
I still have to make a difference by myself, it's really wishful thinking. I secretly admired Ni Dabao's business mind, and at the same time deeply despised him.
Jiang Feng finally agreed to the "Abacus King" Ni Dabao, mainly for him, the real number is easy to do. When the "Black Donkey Zhang" identified the "351" token, one of the three pieces of information obtained by hand, one of them was about the Poison Spring Swamp, because it was close to the Ashala Sect, so he had already notified the other three members of the "Wuyi" to go on an expedition together, now that I think about it, this decision is really wise, because the trip of the Hanshan faction a month and a half later made him very nervous in terms of time arrangement, if he had chosen the other two pieces of information, it is estimated that he would have to consider the problem of dishonesty now.
The property information given by the Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce is very detailed. The Poison Spring Swamp mainly produces two valuable alchemy herbs, the Mud Root Vine and the Bitter Spirit Flower, as well as a Demon Beast Swamp Gray Falcon, and the information covers the description of characteristics, patterns, geographical distribution, and functions, all of which are much more detailed than the information currently held by the Asa Mountain Sect. At the entrance of the Poison Spring Swamp is the Zhanchuan Town of the Assayama Sect, and this information is very useful for the future development of Zhanchuan Town.
Familiar with the road to find the "black donkey Zhang", wanting to replenish the spirit rune, he met Yu Xiaozheng in charge.
"I said, Jiang Xiaobai, you are too unauthentic. As soon as they met, Yu Xiaozheng criticized Jiang Feng with a split head and a face.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Feng was confused.
"What's the matter, say, why do you want to keep my house as your address, this guy, I also deliberately ran down the mountain to help you receive two letters. He "snapped" and threw out two copies of vermilion lacquer sealed letterheads.
