Chapter 515: Win-win cooperation
Three days later, Jiang Feng bid farewell to the Hundred Medicine Old Immortal in Luochuan, and the work of burning the soul mark on the sword blank went smoothly, and Jiang Feng selected six Xuan-level and six foundation-building monks in the sect for this purpose.
Jiang Feng secretly observed, and found that for his own request, none of the original subordinates had any doubts, and they left their marks with peace of mind, while the six Zhuji, except for Qin Xiaokuan and Gu Yansi, all had hesitation, which showed that they did not fully agree with themselves as the head of the family in their hearts now, but fortunately, the value of the "Miaoyun Hao Qi Pill" could outweigh these doubts, and seeing that the original old man of the Asa Mountain Sect did not have any abnormalities, they let go and cautiously left their marks, presumably in the next few days, there was still a lot of worry in their hearts.
Sooner or later, they must be able to trust themselves like those old people in the sect, and believe in the concept of win-win cooperation, for this, Jiang Feng is not demanding at all, and he does not intend to deliberately make some intimate distinctions according to their performance.
Let them think about it, maybe it may be the rumors of the Qingyu Sect that have more or less affected them, if it weren't for the fact that the old immortal of the hundred medicines specially confessed and didn't want to reveal his identity, Jiang Feng felt that maybe the four Zhuji could believe in themselves more, as for the "Miaoyun Hao Qi Pill", Jiang Feng had already tried it in Bailing Villa, this thing was indeed wonderful, the Xuan-level mental method in the sect, he had already tried it preliminarily, and now it was running again, and he found that it was much smoother, which made Jiang Feng have stronger confidence in practicing those two ground-level mental methods.
"Shadow Luo Shocking Wind Body" and "Five Aggregates Qingming Mantra" , These two prefecture-level mental methods obtained from Su Liqing, Jiang Feng carried them with him, and put the rubbing in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and set up rules, in addition to himself, the top ten monks in the sect who have reached the same realm at the prefecture level can refer to the practice for free, and use it to encourage everyone to go further, of course, Jiang Feng also knows that this kind of thing cannot be rushed, and now, the most promising ones in the sect to be promoted to a higher realm are only Zhou Xing and Lu Tianming, both of whom have benefited from this war, the former has reached the seventh level of the Xuan level, and the latter is the fifth level of the Xuan level, and Zheng Luda, who is not low in the original realm, Wu Quanzhong and the others, because they did not participate in the war, missed the opportunity to gain experience from it, in fact, even if they participated, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult to benefit from it, after all, they have stayed in the current realm for many years, and the difference is not only experience.
As for the few people who have just entered the Xuan level, Wang Yanzhi has improved the most, reaching the triple level of the Xuan level, originally, he has the opportunity to impact a higher realm, but Wang Xiandao's death seems to have given him a big blow, his original state of mind is not clear, when he hit the Xuan level last year, he was once invaded by the dark pen on the cave, if it wasn't for Wang Xiandao's timely action, maybe he would have gone mad at that time and fell on the spot, Jiang Feng thought about it, there was a chance to find a pill for him in a clear state of mind, but it happened that the old immortal of the hundred medicines did not have it at hand, and he was eager to find a place to retreat and cultivate his body outside his body, Jiang Feng could not force him to open the furnace for alchemy on the spot, so he could only wait for another opportunity in the future。
Zhao Liangdi has also improved, from the double impact of the Xuan level to the triple level of the Xuan level, which makes Wu Tiande, who is still trapped in the consummation of the spirit level, very unhappy, but this guy has a big heart, and when he meets people, he will say how good Sister Liangdi is to him, and he doesn't care about these details, so he is waiting to marry himself. This made Zhao Liangdi, who has always been a low-key person, very embarrassed, and avoided him every time, for fear that he would do something out of the ordinary in public.
The rest, because of the "forced" Hongzhi to discuss the Tao and share experience, it is said that Zheng Yiyu's cultivation has loosened, but there is still a lack of some heat, for which Jiang Feng is also very pleased, speaking of which, Zheng Yiyu is extremely capable among his subordinates, if he can improve, it will be a blessing for the sect.
The beneficiaries of the spirit-level realm include Zheng Keyue, Hua Baiqian, Chen Qingluo, Wei Chengduo, Zhao Yuan and others, the former has been promoted to the eightfold spirit level, which is only one step away from Wu Tiande, Hua Baiqian is the seventh-level spirit-level, and the last three are the sixth-level spirit-level, and they have made great progress.
Wu Laizi, who was unbalanced in his heart, was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and said that Chen Qingluo had been personally instructed by the head of the house to enter the country so quickly, which made Chen Qingluo hide recently and dare not see people, after all, many people have experienced that Chen Qingluo entered the account to serve when the head was critically ill, and it is ridiculous to say that the guidance is ridiculous, for this reason, Jiang Feng also deliberately sent Wu Quanzhong to personally reproach Wu Tiande, so that he can practice with peace of mind, otherwise he will postpone his marriage with Zhao Liangdi, he closed his mouth obediently, but it is said that he has often run to the wilderness on the outskirts of Luochuan at night recently, cultivated all night, and opened up two hundred acres of raw land with his bare hands, so, many landless ordinary people go to the suburbs early in the morning to look for it, for fear of missing such a good opportunity.
This is also suffocating, but he can think of a way to vent that suits him, and he is not far from the Xuan level, when he thinks of these absurd rumors, Jiang Feng's unhappiness can be reduced by three points.
Sending away the disguised Hundred Medicine Old Immortals, Jiang Feng took Yuan Changgui to the refining workshop, so that the drunk he showed a few hands in public, and immediately convinced Shui Yunqi and others, under Jiang Feng's hint, several people knelt down to apprentice, but Yuan Changgui did not prepare for the apprenticeship, Jiang Feng had to pay out of his own pocket, in the name of Yuan Changgui, sent a few second-order high-grade refining materials, these things were still picked up by his subordinates during the battle of Xiaobadu Mountain, and they have been placed in the storage bag for a long time, and it is useless to keep them.
"If I can quit drinking, how about I hire you to be my Elder of the Shallow Mountain?" Jiang Feng found an opportunity to ask Yuan Changgui, the other party's skills are exquisite, skillful and eclectic, at first glance it looks like a wild road, but at a closer look it seems to have rules to follow, although he did not prepare for the apprenticeship, but Yuan Changgui was quite patient and kind to several apprentices who apprenticed, although he was drunk, but his speech and demeanor were not vulgar and rude, and he was not a person who was addicted to alcohol and was useless.
"I understand the kindness of Master Jiang, I can't quit drinking, the wine left by the old ghost can be drunk for twenty-five days, and then I need Master Jiang's help, otherwise I still have to go back to Bailing Villa." Yuan Changgui refused, leaving Jiang Feng with a swaying back.
is really a strange person, with his attitude, Jiang Feng naturally has no way to appoint him as an instrument elder, otherwise, once he can't get wine, wouldn't it make people laugh and be generous if he runs away halfway, summons Hua Baiqian, hands over the ring full of spiritual wine to him, and tells him to hand it over to Yuan Changgui after twenty-five days, seeing that his cultivation has improved, he has a few words of encouragement, and tells him not to waste the cultivation of the mental method in his busy schedule.
When he took over as the head of the sect, the sect did not have any mental methods, and now after many efforts, there are five Xuan-level mental methods and two local-level mental methods, among which the differences, the monks in the sect have many experiences, although it is only a detail, but I think this is also the foundation of his reputation and the trust of the audience.
"How is the little girl Lei Jiayin doing?" Jiang Feng suddenly remembered this matter, and asked Hua Baiqian to do the dirty work before, and secretly got rid of Lei Jiayin's cousin Yang Yue.
"I'm still in the Ministry of Education, my grades are average, not good, not bad, but I'm still diligent. I had a cold six days ago, but I recovered yesterday. ”
The situation is very familiar, it seems that Hua Baiqian has not forgotten his explanation, even if he travels south with him, he still quickly understands the situation of the person he cares about after returning.
"You go to the Ministry of Education to take three days off for her. On the other hand, find an excuse to separate her family and let them not stay near Luochuan for three days. ”
"Yes!" Hua Baiqian didn't ask a word, which was different from the former deacon of the Rolling Shutter Division, Wang Yi, who occasionally asked something after getting acquainted with him. Seeing him leave in a hurry, Jiang Feng couldn't help but close his eyes and think in reverie, before accepting Gu Yansi's suggestion to visit Biyun Sect, he wanted to uproot the remnants of the law for the descendant of the three law ministers of Lei Youqi, so that she could awaken as soon as possible.
In the war with Tianyin Temple, Jiang Feng truly realized the insignificance of mortal lives, although he did not condone the killing of his subordinates, but in the chaos, it was inevitable to hurt the innocent, and there were even more robbers in the chaos, he once saw a homeless man, madly rushed into a well-off home, and when he came out, his hands were already covered with blood.
Call!
Jiang Feng sighed in his heart, and secretly said that this move is to repay Lei Youqi's kindness, speaking of which, his blood revenge has not yet been avenged, thinking of this, the shame appeared in his eyebrows, and then entered his heart, and after a long time, he picked up a book of refining the Divine Dao Sutra, and secretly recited it seven or eight times, and then calmed down.
............
Lizong, Juque City.
Qiu Nanjia finished reading the documents sent by his subordinate Liao Shencang personally, and couldn't help but think about the deep meaning of the recent movements of the chamber of commerce's top management, it was less than four months since he last met President Dongfangka, but judging from the documents exchanged, the chamber of commerce's strategy has faintly become a little radical.
This is not surprising, in the Eastern Front, it is normal to be aggressive, not only because of the right envoy Li Longjian's own style of acting, but also because the strategy set by the chairman is to overcome the shortcomings of middle and low-level monks and control the situation as soon as possible, so it is not an exaggeration to invest a lot, or even a little waste, but in the western trade route that he is responsible for, this time he has also increased manpower investment, which is rare.
Of course, you should be happy. Originally, what she hoped for was that Vantage, who had some connections with her, could help, but it was unsuccessful, and she even went back to Vantage to communicate in person, but she failed to solve the matter, but now, this kind of good thing has come.
"Shencang, since this is the case, you are the same as Xuanqing, stay in Juque City to help me, here the dragons and snakes are mixed, the crisis is hidden, and the business war is fierce, maybe someone is unwilling to fail, so that some yin tricks come out. ”
"Yes!" Liao Shencang and Chen Xuanqing responded in unison, but Chen Xuanqing, who had long been staying here to help, showed doubts on his face, "Wouldn't there be something wrong with those people suddenly taking over the business of Zhenwu City and East Pole City?"
"Lu Changfeng is also a good manager, although he only has the middle stage of the Xuan level, but the other two, Liao Yuncang and Sun Chongjian, are both prefecture-level monks, so it shouldn't be a big problem to think about it, and the letter said that the three of them, together with Li Dongfan, who is still on the road, are controlled by me and obey my arrangement. Speaking of which, Shencang, Liao Yuncang is still your home. ”
"I don't have much of a family. Liao Shencang was displeased, and an unusual cloud suddenly appeared on his face.
"Forget it, when I didn't say it. Qiu Nanjia smiled slightly, and did not care about the attitude of this subordinate, so far, she has another thought, although she has not yet figured out what the Chamber of Commerce is going to do behind the Huadi Gate and Tianlimen, but from the recent division of Dongquan Mountain under the solemn concern of Qi State, the strategy of the two is becoming active and aggressive, which means that they have a broader space to show their skills.
Tricks of Yin Damage...... In fact, it is also a strategy, she suddenly remembered the recent things, some people because of the abundance of funds, with price wars to suppress the opponent, in the case of their own funds are not very rich, maybe the use of some force, can play a better warning effect.
Maybe he should fight with Lizong's Yu Xiaoman. Speaking of which, this woman is also capable, but unfortunately her cultivation is a little worse, of course, this is also one of the bases for luring the other party into the game and win-win cooperation.
Intelligence shows that this woman and Jiang Feng still know each other, and they used to have a very secret relationship, this guy who is messing with flowers and grass, but he is merciful everywhere, Qiu Nanjia sneered in his heart, he is in Juque City, far away from the Qianshan Sect, and there is less information about Jiang Feng. The most recent time, it was also Jiang Feng who sent a message to Zhenwu City to inquire about the cooperation in sending monks.
This guy really doesn't want to suffer at all, Qiu Nanjia's lips moved, and the golden light lingered in her eyes, she suddenly thought about the matter of Yuanzhen, and when it came to this matter, it was time to force him to comply.
............
On the road.
Jiang Feng sat on the "flying boat against the wind", and went straight to Biyun Sect, accompanied by Wu Quanzhong, the elder of foreign affairs, Ma Yuanzhou, and Long Boan, the deacon of foreign affairs, to Gu Yansi in the matter, before, Su Liqing inexplicably sent a letter from home, deliberately mentioning that Chixiamen wanted to join the Jincheng League, about this, Jiang Feng did not think clearly about the reason, so he asked Gu Yansi for advice.
Gu Yansi provided three strategies as usual.
The best policy is to oppose it in a high-profile manner, since Chixiamen and the Qianshan Sect have old grievances, then there is no need to hide it at this time, and it is directly clear that according to Gu Yansi's analysis, the reason why Chixiamen wants to join the alliance is due to the pressure of the northern Tianli Gate, and the Chixia Gate should not be destroyed by the Tianli Gate in a short time, so there is no need to worry about the cold lips and teeth, and there is no need to put aside the grudge and accept the other party. The conditions for joining the Jincheng Alliance have always required the consent of all members of the sect, and as long as the Asayama Sect is against it, even if the other sects agree, there is no way. Even if they want to convince the Asagama sect, they must come up with a suitable quid pro quo, so if they think about it and take the initiative, no matter what the final result is, the Asayama sect will profit.
The middle strategy is to be consistent with a certain family in the alliance, but you must say it to show friendship. Jincheng sent Su Liqing to take the first step, but he did not show his attitude, at this time he should be with the other party, it is true that it is a friendly move, now that the war is over, it is a wise choice to make friends with all the families in the alliance as much as possible, for the smooth and smooth operation of the trade route, the monk's travel, borrowing the cave mansion, it is an extremely beneficial thing. However, among the middle strategies, the Qingyu Sect, the Huanglong Sect and the Biyun Sect, which have not yet expressed their attitude, can also be considered. Qingyu Sect is the leader of the alliance and the strongest one, there is no risk in keeping with them, but the benefits are also the lowest, the presence of the Huanglong Sect is not high, Gu Yansi suggested not considering it for now, and the Biyun Sect is far away from the Shallow Mountain Sect, and befriending them is in line with the strategy of distant friendship and close attack.
"Moreover, don't you always wonder why the Biyun Sect helped us in the alliance, only by having more contact can we understand the truth, after all, our intelligence system is difficult to reach there. ”
It makes sense to say that this matter has always been a trouble, and friendship without reason is indeed doubtful, Jiang Feng has always been worried about this matter in his heart. The intelligence system in charge of Zheng Yiyu has shrunk recently, after all, the war has stopped, and each sect will withdraw from the war and pay attention to the affairs within the sect, at this time, the investigation of suspicious persons will definitely be much stricter. However, taking advantage of the gap between the war, Zheng Yiyu installed dozens of people among the displaced people, and now, the intelligence network is enough to cover the northern part of the Qing Yuzong, the newly acquired land of the Southern Lizong of Hongshan Town, and the hometown of Lelinmen, the western part of the Jincheng faction, although it is much worse than the heyday, but it is far better than before the war.
The cost of the intelligence network is staggering, according to the current estimates, it has reached six third-order per year, you know, the salaries of the monks of the Ashama Sect and the Seventh Division are only twenty-four third-order, and the maintenance costs of the updated Luochuan Great Array and the Cave Mansion are only twelve third-order per year.
What's more, most of the people who formed this intelligence network were mortals, and there were only two monks, Zheng Yibo and Wang Youzhi, who had just ascended to immortals, both of them were not very old and inexperienced, but they were the children of the family in the sect, and they were loyal and worried, as for other ordinary people, according to Zheng Yiyu, in addition to the original personnel of the Spiegel Division, most of them relied on spirit stones to ensure their loyalty.
The intelligence is good, but it also costs money.
Jiang Feng recognized this, even if it cost more spirit stones, it was worth it. Just recently, relying on the help of this intelligence network, he eliminated two groups of spies from the Outer Sect and a gang of bandits roaming the towns in the north-central region.
"What is the reason for choosing Biyun Sect?" Jiang Feng always felt that Gu Yansi had nothing to say, at this time he was sitting beside him, unlike others who controlled the flying sword, Jiang Feng's move was also to imply to everyone that he still trusted Gu Yansi, which was also necessary for Gu Yansi to gain a firm foothold in the sect.
"I'm still short of a Taoist companion, and I want to find more opportunities. Gu Yansi smiled.
"Isn't Sun Siling suitable?"
"Personally, I prefer to be more mature. ”
Heh, the feeling is that Sun Siling is young, isn't it good to say that he is a little smaller, Jiang Feng chuckled in his heart, and then guessed that he might be trying to find a famous foundation building monk as a Taoist monk, not a qi cultivator.
"So the next step you said is just to make up the numbers, right?"
"Don't dare, don't dare," Gu Yansi's face was terrified, but Jiang Feng knew that his guy was bold, "It's okay to sit and wait for Chixiamen to come and talk, although they are a little passive, but according to the covenant, they can't hide." ”
According to the Covenant...... It is said that the covenant has been broken many times, and the most important thing in the world is trading, otherwise even the Qianshan Sect may not be able to enter the Jincheng League, and the Xuan-level monks stipulated in the contract are registered, responsible for patrolling the Quartet, because of the changes in this war, it has not been implemented, and the sects are still guarding the boundaries and guarding against danger on their own, as for the unified management of the spiritual land, in addition to the needs of each family, in addition to promoting the opening of the third-order spiritual land of the Qingyu Sect, the rest have no sincerity to share, although there is a list of use prices, but they all set a high price, and the mind of wanting to prevent it is far stronger and stronger than the idea of win-win cooperation。
Maybe one day, a certain family in the alliance has an overwhelming advantage, and can guide each family forward, these agreements that stay on paper can be firmly implemented, although they also agree with the concept of win-win cooperation, but at the moment, empathy, let Jiang Feng abide by the covenant, he is also a hundred unwilling.
The sky was high and the clouds were light, and the Biyun Sect was in sight, at this time, he suddenly saw a faint light, fluttering and swaying, flying out of the city not far away, and coming straight to his party.
