Strange Sequence: Longevity from Guoshu

Chapter 242 Yama takes the lead in dividing the interests, and the Righteous Alliance is born (please subscribe)
As soon as Jiang You came in, he found that there were many acquaintances inside, Fazhao from Daci'en Temple, Chiyun from Longevity Palace, Qingfengzi from Yuquanyuan, they were all there, but they were still in the lower ranks, able to compete with Fifth Lord and Third Master. The people sitting with the great elder were the top leaders of various forces.

"Everyone, we had a quick farewell to Xianyang City at that time. How are you today?"

"I'm having a good day today, poor monk. Thank you very much, Jiangyou, for your greetings."

Fazhao smiled and said to Jiang You.

"Taoist Priest Chiyun, has your body's magic power been restored?"

"Hahaha, I owe a lot of loan sharks, it's so damn... It's really shameful, I can't afford to pay off the interest until now. It will take a while to pay off the principal!"

Chi Yun spoke with great energy. It seemed that his physical body had basically recovered, and the rest was that his mana had recovered.

Qingfengzi looked apologetic. He took two steps to Jiang You and cupped his hands, "I am here to apologize to the benefactor!"

Jiang You quickly helped Qingfengzi up, "Why is Taoist Master destroying Jiang You!"

"I failed to fulfill the task entrusted by the benefactor. Fortunately, the benefactor was blessed and turned the danger into safety. If something had gone wrong, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life."

Qingfengzi has always been worried about the fact that the Yin soldiers did not bring artillery shells to support the people in the city when they besieged the city. The big thing today is to apologize to these people. Jiang You had already naked one by one before he came. Yun, Fazhao apologized. Fortunately, these people laughed it off and didn't worry about it. Otherwise, it would have become a big demon for Qingfengzi in the future.

"Taoist Master, why did you say this? It's because the White Lotus demon disrupted the plan. How can you blame Taoist Master!"

Jiang Tianci and Lu Xiaoxiao had already found a seat to sit down while Jiang You was chatting with a few people and reminiscing about old times. Jiang Tianci walked directly to the front, leaving a free seat for him, while Lu Xiaoxiao sat at the bottom seat with courtesy.

After Jiang You chatted with a few people for a while, he walked forward and saw the Fifth Master and others in a row. The Fifth Master was in the middle and the three elders were at the bottom. There was a seat alone in the middle. He knew that this was his seat. Walk over and sit down.

After just sitting down, sitting next to the fifth master, a short-haired man who looked about 50 years old, between old and middle-aged, wearing a black suit smiled and said: "As expected of Young Master Yama, this time... It turns out that the reputation is well-deserved, you should be the one to take the position of young master, hahaha, congratulations!"

When Jiang You heard this, he wondered why this man's words contained a gun and a stick. He had a vague intention of stirring up dissension. Who is this man?

"Old Zhang, you, the director of the Third Investigation Bureau, are so concerned about our Yama family affairs!"

When Jiang You heard this, he realized that this person was the director of the Third Investigation Bureau of Chang'an. He had the same position as Luo Jianjun?

Jiang You looked at this person carefully and saw that there were not many wrinkles on this person's face. There were only some at the corners of his eyes. His facial features were three-dimensional and sharp. If this face was straight, it would make people feel serious and majestic. , but when speaking at this time, with a smile in his eyes and a kind face, people will naturally feel friendly.

"Lao Wu, who doesn't like young people and talented people? Why don't I just give you a few compliments?"

If outsiders didn't know that Master Wu was alone in threatening the Third Investigation Bureau at that time, and after fighting with this person, he opened up the situation for the development of Yama and forced the Third Investigation Bureau to give in. But looking at the demeanor at this time, one would think that the two of them were Close friends.

The three elders did not react at all to this man's words, as if they had not heard anything, and showed no expression. Zhang Yan, the investigation director, saw the reactions of the three people in his eyes, and began to worry about it in his heart.

There were two monks, two Taoists and a woman sitting in the same row as Fifth Master.

The fifth master introduced them to Jiang You one by one, including the abbot of Daci'en Temple, the abbot of Huayan Temple, the ancestral hall of the Huayan Sect, and the head of Yuquanyuan and Wanshou Palace. The woman turned out to be the owner of the embroidery workshop.

Although Xiufang is small in scale, it has no ambition to develop its power. It is just a business. As long as you give money, anyone can do business and does not participate in power struggles. In addition, the founder's personal strength is also strong, so it can Get a seat here.

Jiang You greeted him one by one, the abbot of Daci'en Temple was very warm, and praised Jiang You, but the abbot of Huayan Temple was much colder, just nodded politely, the master of Xiufang didn't talk much, and smiled at Jiang You.

Jiang You thanked the owner of the embroidery studio alone for the clothes. The owner of the embroidery studio, Qin Moyu, was also beautiful, with fair skin that could be broken by blows, a delicate nose and red and plump lips that were sexy and charming. Her figure was outlined in Tsing Yi. However, it is impossible to tell the age by looking at the appearance, but the brown eyes have a sense of vicissitudes of time, and he must be quite old.

"The fact that this dress can be worn on Young Master brings honor to our embroidery workshop. It is for us to thank Young Master!"

Qin Moyu's voice was deep and hoarse, not only did it not damage her demeanor, but it added a bit of sexy and seductive flavor.

Everyone carried the bridal sedan chairs, regardless of what she said nicely, Fifth Master's money was spent at all.

After Jiang You was completely seated, everyone in the room continued the previous topic, about Yama Luo's invitation to several of their forces to join forces to run a school.

Master Wu got the interest of these companies as soon as he proposed it. The cultivation and transportation of talents are the key to every organization's ability to remain standing. The previous model of masters leading apprentices cannot keep up with the current social development situation. Or is it that centralized teaching can make today's young people more acceptable, as for centralized teaching that cannot teach elite disciples?To discover the talents that can be made, it is to set up small classes, and there are many ways.

The main issues they debate are mainly focused on how much resources each company can contribute and how many shares it can hold, so as to have the right to speak and how much influence it can have.

Fifth Master is very tough on this, Yan Luo must guarantee 50.00% of the shares, the most dominant existence, and the other shares are negotiated by themselves.

Director Zhang Heng is actually the most opposed to this matter. These jointly run schools have already formed an alliance of interests. Once formed, it will completely break the balance they finally formed in Guanzhong. This school has already become powerful. It may be difficult to check and balance the strength of other forces, especially the dominant Yama!

"Since it is a joint school, the more the better. How can we do it? Wouldn't it be better for our Third Investigation Bureau to contact several other forces in Chang'an and work together to build our Qin Province?"

Zhang Heng's idea was that since he would become the target of public criticism if he directly opposed it, he would try his best to muddy the water and call in all the forces in Guanzhong. This would be used to put pressure on Yama and give out some shares to the outside world. Come on, now that everyone has joined, this school can only be a neutral unit that purely cultivates talents, and all subsequent methods will be useless.

How could the Fifth Master not know Zhang Heng's plan? This time, Yan Luo invited some forces that had friendship with his family. Other forces could not be invited either. They just wanted to use the school to form an alliance of interests at this time to erode the other forces. Home living space.

After the spiritual energy is revived, the most precious resource is not the natural treasures, but the people, talents, outstanding people, and heroes.

These geniuses can only be bred from a large number of people, so whoever can control more people will develop faster.

In fact, if you look at Yama, you will know that the reason why Yama is a latecomer and can now overwhelm these long-established organizations is that firstly, Yama has occupied the time of heaven and is basically the first group of forces to be formed; secondly, the Fifth Master and the Third The great elder's personal strength protected Yama in the early stages. The third was that it spanned many provinces and had the largest number of tribesmen, so there would always be outstanding people emerging.

After the revival of spiritual energy, these forces were not as decisive as the Fifth Master. When the world situation was still unclear, they took the initiative to set up their stalls. They were afraid that doing so would dilute their own strength and send the masters they had finally cultivated. If other provinces are defeated one by one, they are in danger of destruction.

The fifth master's solution to this problem is to directly win over the local forces. This is how the three elders came to form a feudal structure. In this way, the strength of the Qin Province headquarters will not be greatly weakened, and at the same time, there will be a lot of fresh blood to transport. , leading to the rapid expansion of Yan Luo and Snowball's general strength.

This strategy is actually difficult for other companies to learn. After all, they have religious beliefs and many constraints. This can be seen from Fa Zhao's desire to absorb Master Ciyun, but Bifa Lineage's refusal.

But this also has an advantage, that is, when the benefits are not enough to make people work hard, religious beliefs can also comfort and maintain people. Like Yama's approach, if development is frustrated or even the speed of development slows down, the internal people will be unstable. Once No matter how strong the external pressure is, it is normal for it to fall apart, but Master Wu is confident that he can solve it.

After Fazhao failed to recruit Ciyun, he learned from the pain and went back to discuss with his abbot brother in a secret room. They decided that in the future, it would be necessary to gradually divide the Daci'en Temple into religious divisions, retain some disciples with firm beliefs to maintain the dharma lineage in the temple, and develop de-religionization outside the temple. lay disciples to ensure that their development will not be hindered due to religious issues.

As the saying goes, poverty leads to change. The abbot of Daci'en Temple encountered obstacles in the development of the temple, and his body began to become more flexible. He greatly appreciated Fazhao's strategy and decided to implement it after the beginning of the new year.

As for several other temples in Chang'an, they still retain some of the ancient taste. In addition, the development of the temples is still slowly improving, so they have taken it lightly, lost their keen insight, and are still thinking about slowly accumulating strength. Don't be too hasty.

But opportunities are fleeting, and if you don’t have the courage to fight, why should you stand out?The inheritance of our dharma lineage is no weaker than yours.

This is how organizational strength is managed. Many people believe that as long as they are stronger, their own power will naturally develop to the greatest extent. As long as they can practice magical skills, they can sweep across the four directions and annex them directly.But this kind of thing can only happen to a peerless genius. You need to know that there are people outside the world. Why do you think your talent is the best in the world?There is no organization with a strong supply of resources, so you have to rely on you to accumulate cultivation step by step?To laugh for the world, even the Fifth Master must grasp it with both hands and be hard on both hands!

Even if you really are number one in the world, what should you do if others number one, number two, or number three in the world surround you?
If you want to say that this can be defeated, then you are awesome. If you accept it, you should be the boss of your family, and you will get a spanking. You can just bow down and kneel down. Whoever is dissatisfied, we will be the first to disagree!
There’s been a lot of gossip here, let’s take a look at Fifth Master’s plan.

Fifth Master used a trick from the school to win over the emerging talents from each province. As long as one out of ten people is willing to stay at the headquarters, the headquarters will always be stronger than the branches in other provinces, forming a positive cycle.

As for bringing in several forces to run the school together, it's just for the purpose of maximizing profits.

The fifth master's calculations and plans are one step after another, every step is precise, and every move hits the vital point. You must not be stoic!

The three elders may not have noticed these calculations at first, but after giving them a little time, they all understood the calculations, but it was still difficult to refuse, because the fifth master's policy was also in their interests.

Just like the seat dispute between the three elders and Jiang You a few days ago, the three of them actually wanted to use the matter of Young Master Yama to gain leverage with the Fifth Master and use this matter to force him to make compromises elsewhere in exchange for them. The recognition of Young Master Jiang You.

But the fifth master directly placed the banquet on the top of the pagoda and took them to see the scenery above. This aura of competing for the world's throne immediately made the three elders' plans self-defeating. After all, if Yama can really aspire to the top, In other words, even if they control the northwest and divide the world into four parts, as the great elders, it is not unacceptable for them to be second in command.

This is the terrible thing about the conspiracy. It is so majestic and upright that it can use the power of Mount Tai to reach the North Sea to directly crush the internal conflicts. It cannot be done without a generation of heroes.

The Fifth Master has grasped the main contradiction, and the secondary contradictions are insignificant, so he doesn't pay attention to Zhang Heng's verbal provocations. After all, as long as the three elders are not Alzheimer's, they all know who to follow to ensure their core interests.

Sure enough, after Zhang Heng finished talking about this matter, the Fifth Master didn't even need to speak. Several other people immediately objected, "There are many people and complicated matters, so this matter needs to be done quickly. We will inform you later, hold another meeting, and discuss it again. It has already been lost." The timing is wrong, it’s wrong!”

"Yes, we already have a lot of them. If we add more, the management behind them will also be a problem!" Everyone vetoed Zhang Heng's proposal with just a few words. Zhang Heng had no choice but to give up when he saw this.

Later, Master Wu came up with the idea of ​​opening a trading center for awakened people. It would be set up next to the school. Yama would set up a stage and establish a trading platform. Everyone would sing operas and open shops to move in. Yama would just take a commission from the transaction and charge a management fee.

The fifth master said it lightly, but this management fee can be said to be a business that is sure to make a profit, and the profit is extremely huge.

But these companies can also profit from it and have no objection. After all, they do not have enough manpower and capital to build this platform.

"Since everyone agrees, in line with the concept of healthy and stable development of the trading market, once an underground trading place is discovered, everyone must clear it out in time!"

"This is natural. In a place like underground trading, personal safety and fairness of transactions cannot be guaranteed. There will definitely be murders and goods, and forced buying and selling. If things go on like this, morals will deteriorate. We are all decent people, so naturally we cannot just sit idly by! "

The abbot of Daci'en Temple proposed the concept of decency for the first time, which made everyone's hearts move and they all began to agree.

"Yes, now that evil organizations like the White Lotus are bewitching people and fearing that the world will not be in chaos, how can we just sit back and watch? It's time to join in the grand event and work together!"

The monopoly agreement in the trading market has been completed at this time, and other organizations will be excluded later.

"After our trading market is established, other organizations in Chang'an will definitely follow suit. They are weak and have limited capabilities. It will be difficult to guarantee basic security and fairness. Moreover, they may also use low prices to maliciously compete with us. It disrupts the market order, and if someone comes to them for free and gets hurt, it is also our fault!"

Fifth Master spoke sincerely, with a look of concern for the people. Elder Qi looked at the abbot of the Great Ci'en Temple, "Abbott, you have many dharma lines in Buddhism. Do you think some sects have gone to extremes? "

Fa Liao's face was flushed with excitement, and he thought in his heart that his junior brother must be strong, and he could get them to participate in such an important time with Yan Luo's line, and he could already foresee the prosperity of Da Ci'en Temple in the future!

But when he heard Elder Qi's words, his excited face suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured out. How could he not hear the implication of Elder Qi's words?
"Benefactor Qi, don't say that." He quickly glanced at the abbot of Huayan Temple over there. Like Qin Moyu, this old monk didn't say a word about the discussion just now, but only agreed at key points. , was awakened by Elder Qi's words at this time, with a serious frown on his face.

"This is inappropriate. Although our Buddhist sects have different dharma lines, we are all disciples of Sakyamuni. Our dharma lineage is profound and the Dharma is vast. How can we go to extremes? Even if it is true, it is just because we are ignorant and have no skills. The misinterpretation of our generation has nothing to do with the Dharma lineage!"

The fifth master sighed in his heart, it seemed that this method would not work, and then he said to the elder with an angry look: "Old Qi, what are you talking about? You really play the piano recklessly, and you will be fined three glasses of wine in a while!"

Elder Qi scolded the fifth master in his heart as a bastard. If he didn't contribute to the construction of the headquarters, he would run on himself, let himself do dirty work, and play oboe with him, but there was an ashamed expression on his face, "Oh, my old Qi Yijie The martial artist is a rough guy and doesn’t know much about this kind of thing. If there is any offense, I hope the two abbots will forgive me!"

"In this case, we have to take a preemptive strike on the trade routes. As long as we control a few trade routes, even if they can open a market, the variety of goods will be limited."

"This is a very good statement. The test management of trade routes is important. If you occupy the safest route first, you can save a lot of maintenance costs later!"

"Hey, we are really worried about the development of Qin Province!"

"Those who are able work hard. These are the things we, the righteous monks, are bound to do!"

The reason why Zhang Heng, the director of the Third Investigation Bureau, came in person was because he was afraid that Yama would cause trouble. But now we see that the Fifth Master is working together to win over a group of people and suppress a group of people, but they are all using interests to create a big scandal. Conspiracy, there is no way at all, thinking in my heart, this Yama can't suppress it, how will the Third Investigation Bureau deal with it in the future?

Then his heart suddenly crossed and he said: "You are building a home together, how can you not bring us with you? We, the Third Investigation Bureau, also have to help out!"

"Oh? Lao Zhang, you have a special status here, so it will be inconvenient for you to get involved!"

Several people knew clearly that when the White Lotus Sect started bombing the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, it had already shown that the Third Investigation Bureau was now under the control of outsiders. He did not dare to object to everyone's plan today. He just wanted to muddy the water. Now to squeeze him out, there would be fewer people. Get a piece of the pie.

Zhang Heng laughed and said: "It is so inconvenient to do something that benefits the country and the people. Moreover, you have one flaw at this time, that is, the public does not recognize you enough. Of course, we are all well-known and decent people. As long as Giving the public some time to understand is acceptable, but doesn't it take time? Our Third Investigation Bureau's endorsement saves everyone the most precious time. Moreover, the relationship between Shangjing and the Northwest Military Region is also troublesome. We serve as a bridge of communication between the two sides! After all, they still have weapons of mass destruction in their hands!"

Zhang Heng's words were both soft and hard. He gave the certificate of surrender and also used the opportunity to threaten. In fact, his threat was also very powerful. After all, the Fifth Master was unable to deal with a nuclear bomb attack. Even if he used his magical power to lead people away, his foundation would be lost. , although as long as these people above are not crazy, until the moment of death, a nuclear strike that kills a thousand enemies and damages 99 will not be used. After all, they are all in the city. As a person who still has For a legitimate political power, this approach is tantamount to standing in opposition to the people of the world, and is tantamount to digging one's own grave.

But even if there is only a [-]% or [-] chance, this threat still exists, and those who are planning for big things must consider it.

"Hahaha, Lao Zhang, I'm kidding you. You're all here, so there's no reason not to let you join, right?"

"Hahaha, yes, I was joking before!"

"But, Lao Zhang, you killed three special commissioners from Shangjing before. Are you sure you can still have a good relationship?"

"Hey, you can't say that. It was all an accident. I am also very sad about this. I attend the memorial service every time. I think it is all done by monsters like the White Lotus Sect just to sow discord and think. How vicious!”

Everyone present laughed after hearing this. The Fifth Master did not let Zhang Heng off so easily, but still looked at him with a smile.

Seeing this, Zhang Heng had no choice but to make a promise, "Don't worry, as long as I don't change the name of the Third Investigation Bureau, I will be responsible for the rest. If something goes wrong, I will blame the head office!"

After receiving Zhang Heng's assurance, Fifth Master smiled and said, "I already know what you are capable of, Lao Zhang, so how can I not be worried about you? I'm serious about my words!"

Jiang You heard that these old foxes had basically divided up the interests of Guanzhong here. While marveling at these people's sophistication, he also secretly scolded these people for being thick-skinned. But he also knew that the reason why Fifth Master let him and Lu Xiaoxiao sit in was to let him Familiar with what kind of old foxes he will deal with in the future, when Jiang You is in power, don't follow their ways.

So he listened more, thought more, and said nothing. As for the other powerful people, they also had the same idea, letting their second and third leaders know how shameless these bastards were.

The group of people above secretly scolded the others for being shameless, but everyone seemed to be in good spirits. The abbot of Daci'en Temple beamed with joy. If there were no juniors around, he would be able to hang out with Fifth Master.

"It's almost time, so we won't bother you, just go to the front and take a seat first, congratulations, congratulations!"

After everyone finished their business, they stayed for a while, got up and congratulated Jiang You again. As the master, Yan Luo naturally arranged for someone to accompany him.

Elder Qi accompanied Daci'en Temple, Elder Yang accompanied Huayan Sect, Elder Jiang accompanied Yuquanyuan, Lu Xiaoxiao accompanied Xiufang, and Jiang Ye, who had been waiting outside, accompanied Wanshou Palace.

When everyone has left, only Fifth Master, Jiang Tianci, and Jiang You are left in the room.

Jiang Tianci sighed at Fifth Master: "Old Fifth, you are playing with fire and seeking skin from a tiger. Once you are gone, will Jiang You be able to suppress these people? Then..."

"Hahaha, Jiang You, your grandfather said you can't hold it down, what do you think?"

Jiang You said with a smile: "The prosperity of the world is all for profit, the chaos of the world is for profit, and what you ask for is nothing more than profit. The fifth master is domineering. That is his way, and I naturally have my own way!"

"Hahaha, well said, this is the style of Young Master Yama!"

It was also the first time that the Fifth Master used this title to Jiang You. In fact, he was also observing the young master. Lu Xiaoxiao was always by his side. He knew best. He had some methods for outsiders, but for his own family, he It's not bad to be emotional. The Fifth Master also prefers his own family, but as a leader, you have to pay attention to methods in many things. When you are firm and clear, push them and do it without telling them. In order to achieve the best effect.

Didn't Jiang Tianci become the principal unwillingly because of his plot?This little girl is not firm enough and is easily shaken at critical moments.

Jiang You stayed outside for a long time, and for a while he didn't know how much he had grown. After coming back to contact him, he found that this kid really had an enlightenment. He had found his own path and would not be affected by himself. He was showing signs of taking the king's path.

The founder is domineering, and the successor is king. This is the right way. What I pursue is longevity. Yama is just a means, not an end. I have to withdraw in the future, and it is appropriate to hand it over to Jiang Youzheng.

Jiang Tianci said a few words and then went out, leaving the two of them alone.

"Do you understand what happened just now?"

"Nine out of ten!"

Fifth Master nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that there was still time, he opened the doorway inside and crushed it into pieces. He told Jiang You one by one, how to grasp the main contradiction, how to get what he wanted, and how to exchange benefits after being frustrated. , how to set up a trap and create a false benefit out of thin air in exchange for real benefits.

For example, the official endorsement that Yan Luo had been asking for before was not obtained. This time, the Fifth Master rallied various factions to exclude Zhang Heng and forced him to give the endorsement on his own.

The participation of the Third Bureau of Investigation, represented by Zhang Heng, was part of Wu Ye's plan to exclude him and let him take the initiative to offer benefits to join. I really don't want him to join, so why let him join this meeting?
Zhang Hengzhi also knew this, otherwise why would he immediately give something that would satisfy the Fifth Master?Everyone knows very well that if they force him to make concessions and retreat, everything will be easier, but if he doesn't retreat, there are still means waiting for him. If he wants to get a piece of the pie safely, how can it be so easy?
Jiang You was shocked after hearing this. He said he knew about [-]% of it before, but now he only knows about [-]%.

Fifth Master is also training Jiang You without any reservation.

"Okay, these are small things. It all depends on strength. Without strength, these things are useless. You can just think about it slowly in the future. I haven't left so early. You still have plenty of time. The time is coming. It's time to go. !”
