Chapter 10 Business Alliance
"You!" Chu Xiaoxiao pointed at the weasel for a long time and was speechless, her little face was red with anger, her big eyes gradually moistened, and tears rolled across her cheeks and fell to the ground.
"Stop, Sister Chu, brother, I'm afraid of you. I can make it up to you. However, my brother sees that although you usually practice hard, there are still a few exercises that are not right, so it is better to come to my brother at night and let my brother help you give you some guidance and make up for your shortcomings, so that you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort when you do the entrusted tasks in the future. The weasel looked at the weeping Chu Xiaoxiao and said.
"Dream, weasel, you wait for me, sooner or later, I will get back all the money you have from my pit. Chu Xiaoxiao stared at the weasel for a long time, and then left angrily.
The weasel glanced at Chu Xiaoxiao's back with some contempt and muttered to himself. "Every time they say they want me to look good, in the end, they don't want to continue to come to me to take on the task. Fight with my brother, you are still very tender. ”
Murong Feng, who witnessed the whole thing on the side, was also a little unsightly, although he was a scholar, he also had some chivalry in his heart. Seeing this weasel bullying Chu Xiaoxiao like this, I wanted to stand up for him, but unfortunately I was just getting started, and I didn't even know how to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, so how could I fight with this weasel?
"Master, master. Who is this yellow-clothed Taoist, it doesn't look like a good stubble. Murong Feng asked.
"Why, it's been a day, isn't this master still unaccustomed?" Daoist Yu first glanced at Murong Feng with some disdain, and continued: "This person is a member of the Shang Alliance, although he lives in our sect, he is not under our control. Only responsible for sending and receiving tasks with us. ”
"Shang Alliance, send and receive tasks?" Murong Feng continued to ask.
"Although we cultivators have the support of the sect, after all, we are not as good as those big families, and even if we are big families, sometimes we need to exchange some special materials. In the beginning, everyone relied on heralds to contact each other, but this method has too many drawbacks, such as the recipient may send invitations to several sellers in order to ensure that they can get the materials they urgently need on time, and the sellers often contact several buyers in order to sell the goods as soon as possible. This led to a poor buying and selling, and it was in this context that the business alliance was born. ”
Speaking of this, Daoist Yu glanced at the weasel and continued: "This weasel is the contact person of the Shang Alliance in our sect, if our sect needs to sell any materials or purchase some special items, it must be reported to the Shang Alliance through him, and the Shang Alliance will collect the needs of each sect and then deploy it uniformly, and extract commissions from it." So although this weasel lives in our sect, it is under the jurisdiction of the Shang Alliance, and the Shang Alliance is too important to the Immortal Cultivation Sect, so as long as it is not too much, the head of the sect will also turn a blind eye to this kid's affairs. ”
"Then what is the commission for the task that Miss Chu said just now?" Murong Feng continued to ask.
"She's talking about bounty missions, and the original business alliance was only established to facilitate transactions between the various sects. The main income is nothing more than the commission drawn during the exchange of goods between the sects. However, it is necessary for the business alliance to have contacts in each sect. And the ordinary cultivators or small sects don't need many materials, and they are not expensive, and these meager incomes can't support the entire business alliance at all, so the person in charge of the business alliance thought of a new method in order to support the daily expenses of the business alliance, that is, the reward task. Daoist Yu said.
"Then what is this bounty task?" Murong Feng continued to ask.
"The so-called bounty task is the task issued by some major sects or high-level cultivators or even the imperial court, and there are various types of tasks, some are to collect scarce materials, and some are to hunt and kill some rare monsters. Sometimes, if the war in the north is tight, the Great Yuan court will even issue some small and special combat missions. In order to go further, many casual cultivators mainly rely on these bounty tasks to earn commissions to maintain their cultivation. This has led to the emergence of bounty hunters and mercenary groups, and the merchant alliance will sometimes issue their own bounty missions to hoard supplies in order to make a lot of money during certain special periods. ”
"Then how do you judge that you have completed the task? Is it up to the liaison officer of the Shang Alliance to make an artificial judgment?" Hearing Daoist Yu's words, Murong Feng asked with some resentment.
"Of course not, the Shang Alliance has a very strict review process, I see that you kid asks so much, do you want to stand up for Chu Yatou? This weasel's approach is a bit excessive, but it is also within the scale of the Shang Alliance. Daoist Yu replied.
"Is blatant pit money also called within the scale?" Hearing Daoist Yu's answer, Murong Feng asked with some confusion.
"Of course, it's not a blatant pit for money, after completing the entrusted task, the business alliance liaison must pay according to the degree of completion of the task. The only thing you have control over is the time it takes to complete the task. Some tasks are actually of different grades at different times, so many business alliance liaisons rely on this time difference to earn some extra money. However, there are not many such cases, firstly, the task level of the business alliance is rarely modified, and secondly, the difference in the reward of the task of modifying the grade is not large. Many cultivators don't take it seriously even if they suffer a loss. It's just that this Chu Pixiu never suffers, so he always quarrels with weasels. Daoist Yu replied indifferently.
"But ......"
"No, it's not too early, hurry up and register. Starting today, you will be on the path to immortality. As he spoke, Daoist Yu dragged Murong Feng to the sect's registration office, where a young junior, about twenty years old, was sitting on a chair looking at a formation book and was fascinated.
"Brother Xiao Yi is studying the formation here?" said Daoist Yu to the next generation.
"Yo, it's Senior Yu, we haven't seen each other for a while, have you come back from a trip? Say, what are you looking for me today?"
Daoist Yu dragged Murong Feng forward and said, "This is my new apprentice outside, the head of the sect has already experienced it, let me bring him to register today." ”
"It's easy to say, my name is Zhang Xiaoyi, and I am responsible for managing the registered disciples in this sect. This brother's surname, what kind of deputy position do you want to choose?" Zhang Xiaoyi looked at Murong Feng and said.
"Murong Feng, I want to be a spirit planter. Murong Feng replied.
"Lingzhifu, right, these are five books related to Lingzhi, this is your cultivation book, pack it first. Come with me to your fields. After Zhang Xiaoyi threw the six books to Murong Feng, he stood up and walked to the downhill path behind the court, and Murong Feng and Daoist Yu hurriedly followed.
"This is your fifteen acres of spiritual land, and these five acres are the medicine garden you are responsible for. My rule here is that Lingtian pays 300 catties of Linggu per mu, and as for the medicine garden, I don't care what herbs you plant, but I need to pay forty percent of the harvest as rent. The place where you sleep is in the small wooden house behind Lingtian, there are two people living in each hut, your roommate is called Shi Xiu, he is very easy to get along with, but he has been out of the house recently and has not returned. That's all, I'll go back first. For seniors, there is time to go to my place for tea. Zhang Xiaoyi said as he threw out a paper crane, which instantly grew larger, carrying Zhang Xiaoyi towards Ziyun Peak.
