Chronicles of Celestial Origins
Chapter 566 Sect Assets
A few days passed by. On this day, Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. There was a knock on the door outside. He opened his eyes and said calmly: "Come in."
Mu Tiancheng opened the door and walked in, bowing and saluting: "Uncle Master, Master Xu Qingwan from the Palm Print Department would like to see you."
"Invite her!"
"Yes." Mu Tiancheng left in response. Not long after, Xu Qingwan came into the room. After bowing, the two sat opposite each other. Tang Ning said, "How is it? Have all the assets in the sect been inventoried?"
Xu Qingwan flipped through her left hand and took out a stack of files: "This is the result of our investigation, which is similar to what was reported by various ministries."
Tang Ning took the file and looked through it. In fact, most departments within the sect had no fixed remaining assets. At most, they only had some talismans! Instruments and other objects.
Only a few departments such as the Herbal Medicine Department, the Alchemy Department, and the Spiritual Animal Husbandry Department have more than enough money.
Tangning read it carefully and had a rough idea of the sect's assets.
Currently, there are a total of 2,300 magical weapons and 372 spiritual weapons in the sect.
There are thirteen thousand first-level talismans and one thousand two hundred second-level talismans.
There are one hundred and twenty sets of first-level formation flags and forty-three sets of second-level formation flags.
There are 2,500 bottles of first-level elixirs and 320 bottles of second-level elixirs.
There are thirty-five sets of first-level spiritual weapons and seven sets of second-level spiritual weapons.
There are 35,000 first-level medicinal herbs and 5,400 second-level medicinal herbs.
There are also, for example, three thousand kilograms of Xuan Yan stone, three hundred bottles of Xuan Yan fluid, one hundred carts of Yuan Yin powder...
There are countless such materials for practice.
"I'll thank you for this period of time. Next, we need to inventory the assets outside the sect and register them one by one. Especially those shops, gambling houses, including various important resource areas. I think there should be a huge deficit here. "Yes, there will definitely be some concealment by the local officials. You need to work harder to get accurate data."
"I understand." Xu Qingwan nodded and said, "When are you going to implement the sect's financial changes."
Tang Ning said: "I forgot to tell you about this. During the last meeting, I proposed that Yuan Yidian directly release the spiritual stones, but they rejected it. Tomorrow, I plan to talk to the headmaster. Get his support. I have decided to make some changes to our original plan and am preparing to discuss it with you."
Xu Qingwan said: "What changes?"
Tang Ning said: "Implementing financial changes is not as simple as you and I think. It involves the interests of the upper echelons of the sect, so there is great resistance. It is probably impossible to achieve it in one step."
"And I think the headmaster's intentions don't seem to be very supportive. When I talked about these things with him, he told me more than once to slow down and walk slower."
"If I rashly propose to directly reduce the funding by one million, even if the headmaster agrees, the other people in the palace will not agree."
"Because among the one million spirit stones, at least three or four hundred thousand were originally theirs. Although the sect had made many funding cuts before, it did not affect their interests. It only canceled the original subsidies for various departments. Another amount of funding for each department has been cut.”
"In fact, they should get a little more, but this time it is different. The department's funding has been reduced to a very low level."
"If this million goes down, if there is no hair left on top, it will be difficult for the facial department below to function."
"Actually, the reason why Palace Master Peng waits for me to come to Yuan Yidian before implementing the sect's financial reform is because he wants to push me to the forefront. In this way, even if something goes wrong, it will be my responsibility and has nothing to do with him."
"Of course, there are some deeper considerations here that I won't go into. In short, he is now the hands-off shopkeeper and leaves all the matters to me. Even the distribution of spiritual stones for the sect's expenses this year has not been done by him. Come back and let me decide directly.”
"So I want to take a more compromise approach to make the voice of opposition slightly smaller. I plan to put the one million yuan reduction in funds into the assessment and review."
"Aren't we going to encourage all the disciples of the sect to participate in the process of alchemy and weapon refining? I want to use this million spiritual stones as a means of motivation to cultivate a qualified Qi refining, elixir refining, and weapon making person in each hall and courtyard. Fu disciples will return 10,000 spiritual stones, and until there are 100 qualified disciples, one million spiritual stones will be returned to them."
Xu Qingwan pondered: "In this case, wouldn't it mean that the funding has not been reduced?"
Tangning smiled and said: "Why is it not reduced? We will reduce it by one million first, and then return it one after another. During the process of returning, those disciples have also developed their skills. They themselves can create the value of returning the spirit stones. This is the right thing to do." On the contrary, the reduced one million spirit stones are still not moving at all?"
Xu Qingwan nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, but didn't the sect ask you to propose a plan to reduce the number of spiritual stones by two million?"
Tangning waved her hands and said, "Don't mention two million anymore. It's basically impossible. I've done my best to achieve this. I'm just a manager, and what I can do is really limited. Let them do the rest. Come on your own!”
"Okay, I will modify the plan according to your wishes." Xu Qingwan stood up and left.
…………………………
At nightfall, Tang Ning left the cave, and with the light rising, she arrived in front of Luo Qingshui's cave. She waved her hand and handed the talisman inside.
Not long after, the thick fog rolled, and a ray of light flashed out from inside, revealing a fair-faced man, bowing and saluting: "Master, please come in."
Tangning followed him into the inner room, went straight to Luo Qingshui's main room, stepped forward and saluted, "Disciple pays homage to the master."
"You're here, sit down!"
Tang Ning sat down as instructed, and Luo Qingshui said: "The inventory of the sect's assets is almost complete!"
"Yes, the inventory has been completed and registered."
"The next step for the sect to train disciples in alchemy, qi refining, talisman making, and formation formation should be carried out!"
"Yes, I have an idea and I came here to report it to the headmaster."
"Say it!"
"I want to simultaneously carry out the plan for the sect's disciples to learn skills and reduce the sect's financial expenditure. This is my preliminary plan. Please take a look at it." Tang Ning flipped it with her left hand, took out a file and handed it to him.
Luo Qingshui took the file, glanced at it and said with a smile: "Do you want to use one million spiritual stone funds as collateral to have each hall and academy hand over a hundred disciples with mature skills?"
Tang Ning said: "That's more or less the meaning. Whether it's alchemy, weapon refining, talisman making, or array making, it's all tedious, time-consuming and labor-intensive. In fact, the disciples below may not be willing to learn sincerely, especially those who have reached the late stage of Qi refining. Disciples are the main ones we want to cultivate.”
"And most of these people are only thinking about building the foundation, and they have to spend a lot of time on trivial matters such as elixir refining and weapon refining. There will definitely be a considerable number of people who are unwilling, and the deacons of various departments may not fully cooperate with them to supervise them. ”
"Now that the spiritual stone funds are used as collateral, whichever department cultivates a qualified disciple, we will permanently reward 10,000 spiritual stone funds. When the department's funds are involved, I believe they will be more motivated."
Luo Qingshui said: "Your idea is good, but I'm afraid it's not the right time to implement the budget reduction plan. The sect is now confronting the Demon Sect in Yingxia Mountain. At this time, it is better to be still than to move. The frontline disciples are fighting against the Demon Sect. We are here It’s not appropriate to cut funding for the rear.”
"It's better to wait for a while about the funding! Don't rush it, but train disciples to make alchemy and weapon refining as soon as possible. When are you going to start?"
Tang Ning said: "I will discuss with Senior Brother Zhuang tomorrow. If there are no problems with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, within three days, we can arrange for people to participate in the study of alchemy, qi refining, talisman making, and formation making techniques."
"I hope to form a separate team to carry out overall coordination work."
"Including the disciples selected from the Alchemy Department, the Weapon Technique Department, the Talisman Department, and the Formation Flag Department to teach the skills and the disciples who participated in the study, as well as the reserve personnel who specially provide them with raw materials, all join this team and provide unified command. In this way, I I think it will be much more efficient.”
Luo Qingshui said: "This is a good idea. I will leave this matter to you. You are a highly skilled alchemist and the steward of Yuanyi Palace. I think there is no one more suitable than you in the sect."
"No need to wait for tomorrow, I will invite Zhuang Xingqian here, and you can discuss a plan immediately! Tomorrow, I will summon the deacons from various departments to select disciples to join your coordinating team to learn skills."
"Someone's coming."
Luo Qingshui was obviously very concerned and interested in this matter. As soon as he finished speaking, a man from outside the house pushed the door open, bowed and said, "What are your orders, Master?"
"Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ask Zhuang Xinqian to come."
"Yes." The man responded, turned around and left the room.
After about a stick of incense, Zhuang Xingqian came in from the outside, bowed his head and took his seat.
Luo Qingshui said: "The inventory of the Yuan Yidian sect's assets has been completed. The next step is to let all the disciples of the sect participate in learning the skills of alchemy, weapon refining, talisman making, and formation making. There is no problem with the Ministry of Internal Affairs!"
Zhuang Xinqian said: "I have told them a few days ago, asking them to step up their preparations. I want each department to send a steward and five skilled disciples to teach the disciples of other departments in the sect."
Tang Ning said: "Five disciples are about the same in the three departments of Weapons, Talismans, and Formation Flags. But I hope to send a few more people to the Alchemy Department, because the main skill we teach to the disciples of the sect is alchemy."
"I think it should be done in a rotational manner. Regardless of the elixirs, formation flags, weapon techniques, or talismans, they cannot be accomplished overnight. They need to be accumulated over many years. At least they must be taught the most basic skills! And this one may require It takes years.”
"A team with just a few people may not be able to handle it. I propose that in addition to deacons and supervisors, all disciples and stewards in these four departments should be included in the team to teach and impart skills."
"Divide them into four teams and take turns every three months. Only in this way can we ensure the efficiency of the sect disciples' learning."
"In addition, I hope that each team of the Alchemy Department can send ten disciples to participate in teaching."
