Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The prophet of Chunjiang Plumbing Duck, Tang Ning, as a monk in the regiment directly under the column, and with the relationship with Bai Jintang, got the news very early and started running early.

Under the leadership of Bai Jintang, he successively visited the column chief Cao Heng, the column supervisor Mao Yu, the column deputy captain Jiang Ji and several other stewards.

But so far, no one has given him an accurate answer. They all just said a few vague polite words.

As the selection time for the alliance was getting closer, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart, but he couldn't disturb Bai Jintang too often.

In the final analysis, Bai Jintang is just a column manager. Although he has a good background and a wide network of contacts, others may not support him because of his face.

What's more, there are so many alliance managers who come here to gain connections, and none of them have any connections behind them.

Until October 15th, on this day, Tang Ning was practicing in the cave with his eyes closed. The storage bag on his waist trembled. He picked up the formation plate, took the talisman into his hand, and then flashed out of the room.

Outside the thick fog, a disciple stood. Seeing him disappearing from the light, he bowed and saluted: "Uncle Tang, Uncle Xiao, please go to the alliance meeting hall immediately."

Tang Ning responded and went to the meeting hall of the direct alliance. Sitting inside was a middle-aged man with crouching eyebrows. He was Jiang Ji, the newly appointed deputy captain of the column.

Standing next to him is a person, Xiao He, the deputy captain of the direct alliance. He was originally the manager of the direct alliance. When the leader of the alliance died, Bai Jintang was promoted to the column manager and captain of the direct alliance, and he was also promoted to the deputy captain one after another.

The directly-affiliated alliance was the first to be selected by the column. As early as half a month ago, the selection of various managers had ended.

Seeing Jiang Ji present, Tang Ning felt a little happy. This period was the time to select the stewards of each wing, and the selection of stewards for the direct wing had ended. Jiang Ji came here in person, presumably to be the steward of the fifth wing. It was a matter of choice. If he hadn't chosen it, he would definitely not have made this trip himself.

"Meet Uncle Master."

"Tang Ning, according to the decision of the regiment, you are now appointed as the deputy captain of the fifth regiment. You should prepare well and set off in three days. At that time, junior brother Ning Ziyuan, who is in charge of personnel in this department, will escort you to the fifth regiment to take up the post!" Jiang Ji He said with a deadpan expression.

"yes."

Jiang Ji took out a note in his hand and handed it to Xiao He beside him: "This matter must be handled properly."

"Disciple understands." Xiao He took the clause.

Jiang Jisui said no more, stood up and left.

"Junior brother Tang, congratulations. This is a big step. You have stepped directly from the brigade supervisor to the deputy captain of the wing. I am afraid you are the only one in the whole army. In so many years, I have never seen such a span. It's a big promotion and appointment. It seems that the uncles in the column are not ordinary caring about you!" Xiao He said with a smile.

"It's all thanks to the sect's great blessing. Maybe I also want to thank the rebels in Donglai County for helping me kill the enemy. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had this opportunity. If I were in the coalition army, I would have suffered a loss if I didn't have an inspection team." Tangning said calmly.

The two of them spoke in a mediocre manner, but they actually had a hidden edge. Although Xiao He was smiling, his words actually contained sarcasm, which meant that he got the position of deputy captain abnormally, and he got it by flattering and flattering the column manager. .

Tang Ning responded that she earned this position with her swords and spears on the battlefield, and she is fully qualified.

Xiao He laughed and revealed the matter: "Oh, by the way, if you have any matters that need to be handed over in the headquarters brigade, you should hand them over to Junior Brother Ye as soon as possible."

"I understand, Senior Brother Xiao, if you have nothing else to do, I'll leave first." Tangning turned around and left. Instead of returning to her own residence, she went directly to Baijintang Cave.

After staying in the waiting room for a short time, Bai Jintang walked in from the outside.

After the two of them exchanged some polite words, Tang Ning turned to the main topic: "Master Jiang Ji has just announced his appointment. The disciple will soon go to Xuantang City to take up the position of deputy captain. Therefore, I came here to pay a visit to my uncle. If you don't come forward to do this, , How can this disciple get this position? The master's kindness to his disciple is more important than the mountains. It's a pity that the disciple is humble and has nothing to repay him. If he has the ability in the future, he will do the work of a dog and a horse. "

Bai Jintang smiled and waved his hand: "Why are you so unreasonable? The key to your ability to get this position lies in your qualifications. At most, I can only play a role in connecting people. What's more, all ministries are in urgent need of manpower. The current situation is that there are many positions and not enough disciples who meet the standards.”

"When you arrive in Xuantang City, you can cooperate with Minyi. This child has always been a bit arrogant and often does not consider things thoughtfully enough. Please give her more advice."

"How dare you, disciple?" Tang Ning hurriedly replied: "Senior Sister Yan is very kind to our disciples. Whatever instructions she gives, our disciples will definitely obey her."

"Then it's even worse. What I'm talking to you is from the bottom of my heart, not polite words. When you get to Xuantang City, you don't have to look at my face and indulge her too much. She has a good heart, but her temper is a bit irritable. Now that she has encountered the Tribulation of Sighs, her practice has been stagnant for so many years, which can be regarded as a hardship for her! "

Only then did Tang Ning know that Yan Minyi was stuck in the early stages of spiritual transformation after encountering the Sighing Tribulation. The two of them had met a few days ago, and Yan Minyi had a cold look on his face and didn't pay much attention to him.

"Uncle Master, there is actually one more thing that disciples are here for. When the column made the decision, a few master uncles supported the selection of disciples. I think I should pay homage to those supportive master uncles."

"Currently, there are only eight people in charge of the column. Apart from me, the column leader, Senior Brother Cao Heng, the deputy captain, Senior Brother Jiang Ji, the column manager, Ning Ziyuan, and the column manager, Lu Daxing, all voted for you."

"Disciple understands."

The two chatted for a while, and then Tang Ning said goodbye and left. When he returned to his cave, he fell onto the stone bed.

How could this be a good thing? The market price of the deputy captain of the alliance was 300 million spirit stones. Five people would be worth 1.5 billion spirit stones, and he simply couldn't have so many spirit stones on hand now.

In the past few years, although he has made many meritorious deeds within the coalition, killed many rebel monks, and been promoted successively, his money has always been tight. His salary is already low. In addition to being able to share the annual funds within the coalition, he also earns Without other sources of income, he has been unable to make ends meet.

If it was just him, it wouldn't matter. With his salary and alliance funds, even one fifth-level middle-grade Hunyuan Pill every day for three hundred and sixty-five days a year could barely support him. The problem is that there are Xiao Zhan and Xiaobai’s elixir cost.

With this large sum of money, he would not be able to cover his expenses at all, so he urgently needed to get a deputy captain or supervisor, otherwise the income of a steward would not be enough.

His current salary is 15,000 high-grade spiritual stones, plus the salary subsidy of the deputy captain of the alliance, he can get 21,000 high-grade spiritual stones every year.

As for the fifth-level middle-grade Hunyuan Pill, one would cost seventy high-grade spiritual stones. With salary alone, it would not even be enough to pay for the pill, let alone Xiaozhan.

He now only has more than 20,000 high-grade spiritual stones in his entire net worth. It is simply impossible to come up with 150,000 high-grade spiritual stones now. However, the benefits of these column management must not be owed, and must be solved immediately.

After thinking about it, there is no other way. The only way to do it now is to find someone to borrow money. One hundred and fifty thousand high-grade spiritual stones is not a small amount of money, and not everyone can get it at once.

Bai Jintang didn't have much of a problem, but he really didn't have the nerve to say this.

It would be easier to do it in Xuantang City, as they were familiar with each other and it wouldn't be a big problem to pick up a few things here and there, but in this column, he didn't know many people he knew well.

After thinking for a while, he finally left the room and came to a cave. He turned his hand and handed a talisman inside. Not long after, a figure flashed out from inside, revealing the figure of a white man. He smiled and said, " Senior Brother Tang, I’m here to welcome you, but I apologize for any inconvenience.”

"Junior Brother Ren, to be honest, I came here this time to ask for your help on an important matter. I wonder if I can come in and talk about it?"

"Please."

The two of them entered the inner room one after another and sat opposite each other under the stone table in the pavilion. The man took out a bottle of spiritual wine and gave the two of them a glass: "Senior Brother Tang, there is no room for friendship between us. You If you come to me for something, you respect me, and I will do my best if I can do it. I hope Senior Brother Tang can understand."

The man's name is Ren Zizi. He was born as a follower of Bai Yuanting in his early years. He was later transferred to the directly affiliated unit as deputy captain, supervisor, and captain. Now he has made a breakthrough in spiritual cultivation and was appointed to the position of manager of the directly affiliated unit a few days ago.

Tang Ning and he didn't actually have a close friendship. They just met a few times and knew each other's ins and outs.

The two of them drank the wine in one gulp, and Tang Ning said, "Junior Brother Ren is quick to speak, so I'll get straight to the point. I'm in urgent need of some money, but I don't know many acquaintances in the column. After much deliberation, I can only shamelessly find you.”

Ren Zixing gave the two of them another drink and asked without missing a beat, "How much does Senior Brother Tang need?"

"One hundred and fifty thousand high-grade spiritual stones are in urgent need and need to be obtained within three days. I wonder if Junior Brother Ren can lend them to me?"

"One hundred and fifty thousand?" Ren Zizi frowned slightly: "Can I ask, what is the use of Senior Brother Tang suddenly asking for such a large amount of spiritual stones?"

"To be honest, not long ago, Uncle Jiang Ji summoned me and announced my new appointment, returning to Xuantang City as the deputy captain of the alliance."

"This is a good thing! When the direct alliance was appointed, I saw that there was no position for Senior Brother Tang, so I knew that Senior Brother Tang must have other plans. It seems that Senior Brother Tang has already set his sights on this position."

The two of them drank it all in one gulp: "A good thing is a good thing, just to the senior uncles in the column, you know that this matter cannot be delayed, otherwise the senior uncles will have opinions about me, but I am penniless now." Ah! That’s why I shamelessly came to Junior Brother Ren for help.”

"I'm dissatisfied with Senior Brother Tang. My pocket is cleaner than my face now. I really can't come up with 150,000 high-grade spiritual stones. Over the years, I have prepared the training materials to attack the gods, as well as the cost of pills for daily practice, as well as my Although the appointment as the commander of the regiment is a sure thing and there is nothing to fight for, the uncles in the column have to express their gratitude! "I myself am in debt. "

"In that case, forget it. Say goodbye." Tangning stood up and said goodbye.
