Chapter 373 Ye Jie's Choice

Chapter 373 Ye Jie - Choice
"I told you not to show up."

Seeing Ye Jie return to the document hall with a slightly disappointed look on his face, Su Miao curled her lips and pointed out his mistakes mercilessly.

Being opposed by the ghosts in the hall, Ye Jie was in no mood to argue with her. He sighed, "Why can't the ghosts in the hall understand me?"

Su Miao snorted coldly, as if she found it somewhat amusing: "Understand? Do you really think that you can change the ghosts' minds with just your words? How naive. People cannot understand each other, and the same is true for ghosts."

Ye Jie waved his hand and did not refute, but his face was still filled with disappointment.

At this time, a ghost messenger came to report: "Palace Master, the Immortal Shoufa wants to see you."

Upon hearing Shoufa's name, Su Miao's face darkened: "Him? What is he doing here? Is he here to make fun of himself? The Palace Master doesn't want to see him."

Ye Jie's mouth twitched. He hadn't even said anything yet, so how could Su Miao make the decision for him? He quickly said, "No matter what, if the agenda cannot be advanced, it will delay the transaction with the Yin Shang. It's better to let him come to see me."

The ghost took the order, and soon saw Shoufa, who was round and looked like a ball of meat, walking slowly towards him.

Seeing Ye Jie, Shoufa smiled, his face always looking happy: "Palace Master Ye, I heard that there seems to be a bit of noise outside the Document Hall."

Ye Jie sighed: "It's all because of the agenda. The ghosts in the hall are dissatisfied with the agenda and are unwilling to covet the heavenly merits no matter what. So they gathered outside the hall and wanted me to cancel the agenda."

Shoufa glanced at him without leaving a trace: "In that case, let the ghost messenger in the hall drive those ghosts away. How can we tolerate them to act so recklessly here? If they continue like this, won't they ride on the roof of the Golden Wheel Hall? It will simply destroy the dignity of the Yama Palace."

Ye Jie shook his head, feeling reluctant: "The ghost catcher has practiced well, and he will not hold back when he strikes. It is not easy to drive away those ghosts. It would be bad if he hurts them. How can we let the ghost catcher do it?"

Shoufa frowned and said, "Palace Master Ye, since you don't want too many ghosts to get hurt, why not catch a few of the most troublesome ghosts and punish them, either by throwing them into prison or into a frying pan, to serve as a warning to other ghosts. This mob will naturally disperse, and there will be less resistance to implementing your agenda."

Ye Jie still shook his head: "They didn't do anything wrong, they just didn't accept the idea of ​​the agenda. How can I punish them? I have to convince them."

Shoufa was stunned. He never expected to get such an answer. Even though he had seen many Yamas, this was the first time he had seen a Hall Master like Ye Jie. He could only say:

"If Palace Master Ye doesn't want to dirty his hands, he can just hand this matter over to other ghost messengers. As long as the special ghost messenger administrative option is unlocked, there will be many qualified ghost messengers willing to do the job for Palace Master Ye."

"Special-grade ghost messenger? What is that?"

Ye Jie was slightly stunned. This was the first time he heard of the title of special-grade ghost messenger.

Taking out the seven stitched pages, Ye Jie's mind moved, and soon, the answer he wanted to know appeared on the torn pages:

[Special Ghost Messenger: Introduce the special ghost messenger system. Special ghost messengers can be set up in the Yama Palace. Special ghost messengers are only responsible to the Palace Master. Their status is higher than that of all ghost messengers. They can exercise privileged supervision over all ghosts, including the judges. When necessary, they can use all means to eliminate any hidden dangers that are unfavorable to the Yama Palace without the approval of the Palace Master. Unlocking requires 30 million Yin De and 15 million soul rhymes. ]

After reading the information revealed on the seven stitched pages, Ye Jie finally understood Shou Fa's meaning. His expression changed slightly: "You mean, we should use special-grade ghost messengers to get rid of those..."

Shoufa smiled and said, "It seems that Palace Master Ye has understood what I mean. As long as those opposing ghosts disappear, the agenda can be smoothly carried out, and there will be no more obstacles in the future."

On the side, Su Miao's expression changed after hearing the title of the special-grade ghost messenger, and she said angrily: "Don't give bad advice here. It's troublesome enough to promote Tiangong Wogong. If we set up special-grade ghost messengers, I don't know what will happen to the Golden Wheel Palace in the future!"

Shoufa looked at her with disdain: "This is a matter between Lord Ye and me, and you have no right to speak. Girl, don't butt in."

Su Miao was furious: "What did you say? Do you dare to tell me again?"

Shoufa ignored her and left Su Miao alone, jumping up and down. He looked at Ye Jie and said, "How is it? Palace Master Ye, what have you thought about?"

Ye Jie frowned, "I don't think this is appropriate. As the master of the hall, I should protect the ghosts in the hall and make their lives better. This is also the purpose of promoting the life trade. How can I use special ghost messengers to get rid of the ghosts who oppose me? They have done nothing wrong."

Shoufa said sternly, "Those ghosts who don't listen to the Lord are all evil ghosts. They should be eliminated as soon as possible to avoid greater disasters. Lord Ye has done so much for them, even building a big dining hall to feed them, but they are still not satisfied. Now they dare to obstruct the Lord's agenda. They are just a group of wolves that can never be fed. What's the point of talking to them? Blind kindness will only make them think you are weak and can be bullied. You must let those ghosts experience your power and let them feel pain, then they will learn a lesson!"

Su Miao was still chattering on the side: "What nonsense are you talking about? The ghosts here are not like what you said. They are just scared by the behavior of greedy for heavenly power. How can they become wolves that can never be fed?"

Seeing that Ye Jie was still hesitating and seemed undecided, Shoufa also sighed:
"Palace Master Ye, I can only say this much. You are the master of the Golden Wheel Palace, and you have to make the final decision. As the old saying goes, kindness does not command the army, and righteousness does not command wealth. If you only focus on kindness and righteousness, you will not accomplish anything great. I must remind you that if the agenda cannot be advanced and the deadline in the contract is delayed, you will have to pay for the breach of contract. I hope you can consider my proposal carefully."

After saying this, Shoufa walked away with the smile on his face disappearing. His expression showed no joy or sadness, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

After Shoufa left, Su Miao came to Ye Jie with an anxious look on her face: "Hey, you're not really going to do what Shoufa said, are you?"

Ye Jie looked at her helplessly and said, "Can't you just call me Palace Master? I am the Palace Master of the Golden Wheel Palace after all, why do you keep calling me hello? If all else fails, you can just call me Brother Jie."

Su Miao was so angry that she said, "I have been practicing for 200 years. How old are you? Do you want me to call you Brother Jie? Also, did you hear what I just said? Is now the time to think about this?"

Ye Jie shrugged his shoulders and didn't comment. He looked like he didn't care about anything, which really annoyed Su Miao. It was already this late, and he was still so unruly. "Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Seeing that Ye Jie did not answer, Su Miao suddenly became anxious. She grabbed Ye Jie's shoulders and shook him, trying to wake him up, while she kept on asking him questions:

"You are not allowed to unlock the special ghost messenger. That is not a good option. After unlocking it, the entire Yama Palace will fall into chaos. I don't want to sit in the Clerical Palace every day and be interrogated by some special ghost messenger."

Seeing that Su Miao objected so strongly, Ye Jie had no choice but to say, "I'll listen to you and not unlock the special ghost messenger."

Su Miao was slightly stunned. She never expected that Ye Jie would agree so quickly: "Really? You didn't lie to me?"

"Why would I lie to you?" Ye Jie was speechless. He didn't know why Su Miao had such an idea. "The special ghost messenger seems very good. It can solve the current difficulties and make all the ghosts who oppose the agenda disappear. But that is based on the premise of hurting them. I don't want to hurt them because of such a thing. As the master of the hall, I should protect the ghosts in the hall. How can I hurt them in return?"

After hearing what Ye Jie said, Su Miao looked at Ye Jie with a slightly different look in her eyes. She didn't expect to hear such an answer from Ye Jie. She thought Ye Jie would unlock the special ghost messenger without hesitation.

Seeing Ye Jie's sincere tone, which showed his concern for the ghosts in the hall, Su Miao also realized that her previous views on Ye Jie were wrong in many places. Maybe he did agree to the deal with the ghost merchants and was ready to promote the life trade, but as the master of the Golden Wheel Hall, he was still willing to protect the ghosts in the hall. At least on this point, Su Miao could not find any fault.

"If I don't unlock the special ghost messenger, what should I do to smoothly advance the agenda? I don't want to exceed the deadline and compensate the Yin Shang for breach of contract."

Ye Jie seemed a little anxious. Shoufa's words undoubtedly sounded a wake-up call for him, making him understand what consequences he would face if he missed the deadline.

According to the contract between the two, if Ye Jie exceeds the deadline and fails to smoothly advance the administrative agenda, he will have to pay 3 billion Yin De as compensation for breach of contract. Not only will he have to lose the deposit he received before, but he will probably have to lose the entire Golden Wheel Palace.

Ye Jie was concerned about the deadline of the contract. He did not want to pay compensation after breach of contract, so he had to move forward with the agenda as soon as possible.

Su Miao had expected this and said, "Don't worry, I have already conveyed the message to the ghosts gathered outside the hall, asking them to elect a leader ghost to represent their opinions and needs. You just need to negotiate with the leader ghost, and the agenda can proceed smoothly."

"hope so……"

Ye Jie pondered for a moment and understood the situation clearly. As long as he could reach an agreement with the leader, he could move forward with the agenda smoothly. But if he couldn't reach an agreement, it would be quite troublesome.

Su Miao left first and came to the outside of the document hall, and soon led a ghost messenger in.

"Are you the leader ghost messenger..."

Looking at the ghost messenger beside Su Miao, Ye Jie was surprised. He didn't expect that this leading ghost messenger was actually an acquaintance.

But the leader of the ghosts was none other than Shan Yao, the soul-leader whom Ye Jie personally led. There was a look of determination on her face, and on her thin shoulders she carried the heavy expectations of the ghosts.

As the first ghost that Ye Jie personally led souls to, Shan Yao was one of the oldest ghost messengers in the Golden Wheel Palace and had quite a lot of experience. All newly appointed ghost messengers, no matter their age, had to respectfully call him "Senior Shan Yao".

The Soul-Binding Rope, which Shan Yao is best at, was also taught by Ye Jie. Ye Jie also ordered her to screen the personnel in the hall and select the ghost messengers who would participate in the missions. This allowed Shan Yao to make friends with many ghost messengers whose strength improved rapidly. All these actions accumulated extraordinary prestige for Shan Yao in the hall, allowing the ghosts to choose her as the leader ghost messenger with confidence.

"Hallmaster..."

Looking at Ye Jie, Shan Yao puffed her lips. As the earliest ghost messenger in the hall, she was very respectful to the hall master. But now she seemed to be standing on the opposite side of Ye Jie. This sudden change really made Shan Yao a little uncomfortable.

Ye Jie noticed the unnatural look on her face and couldn't help but smile: "Don't worry, we have different positions on the matter of Tiangong, which is quite normal. When things are over, everything will return to normal. You don't have to worry too much about it."

Ye Jie's comforting voice came to her ears, and Shan Yao's expression improved. She calmed down, straightened her chest and said seriously: "Palace Master, I have brought the requests of the ghosts in the palace. Regarding the Tiangong and my Gong, as well as the future trade of Yang Shou, unless the Palace Master can meet the following points, otherwise, the ghosts in the palace will not accept it."

Ye Jie nodded, and then began to negotiate these requirements with Shan Yao.

The so-called negotiation is the collision between asking for an exorbitant price and paying back the money on the spot. The two parties continue to discuss the conditions until they reach a unified result.

"After promoting Tiangong Wogong and even the Yangshou trade, we need to strictly supervise the administrative behavior of the Shouwu ghost messengers to ensure that they do not persecute human beings for the sake of Yangshou... This one can be done. Even the Shouwu ghost messengers on the Yinshang side must be strictly supervised. However, the next one is not possible. Asking the Yinshang to lower the prices of all goods and provide free magic weapons on a regular basis? How can such a thing be possible?"

"Increase the remuneration of ghost messengers, allow ghost messengers to obtain a certain quota of life span every year, and distribute it to relatives still in the human world? It is possible, but it needs to be deducted from the reward for Yin De. Other ghost messengers except the life ghost messenger can enjoy internal preferential prices if they want to buy life span for relatives in the human world."

"To take precautions and deal with the attack of the heavenly soldiers, should we open all the books in the Dharma Hall for all ghosts to learn? This won't work. If you want the manuals, you need to work hard and then exchange them with good deeds. How can we open them all? Besides, ordinary ghosts don't have natural talents and their qualifications are poor. Even if you bring the most advanced manuals, it will take them hundreds of years to learn. It's useless to open them. We can only open the Soul-Breaking Arrow and the Soul-Binding Rope, the two most basic manuals for ghosts."

"........."

After discussing with Shan Yao, agreeing or disagreeing on the items in the request, it was unknown how long it had passed. Ye Jie wiped the sweat from his head and finally reached an agreement with her.

In order to successfully promote Tian Gong Wo Gong and the subsequent Yang Shou trade, Ye Jie, as the hall master, also made concessions in many aspects. The final result was acceptable to both parties.
