Chronicles of Celestial Origins

"Inspector Hao asked Uncle Yu to arrange a spot for Junior Brother Han in the Soul Gathering Formation?" Tang Ning was shocked. With Hao Jianren's status, it was very rare for him to stand up for a junior Jin Dan. It is conceivable that he specifically asked Junior Brother Han about these small things. , the relationship between the two must be very close.

"He didn't say it directly. He just asked Master Yu to take care of him and also mentioned the quota for the Spirit Gathering Array."

This is a very clear statement. To say it so thoroughly would be inconsistent with Hao Jianren's identity. If Yu Gan doesn't even understand this, he shouldn't hang out in the sect.

"What is the relationship between Junior Brother Han and Inspector Hao?"

"I really don't know. Either he himself has a close relationship with Inspector Hao, or it's the relationship behind him. I personally prefer the latter."

"Presumably Junior Brother Han has been at the top of our team in recent years!"

Lu Fang smiled: "You are wrong. Except for Junior Brother Han getting a spot in the Spirit Gathering Formation in the first year and receiving the most merit awards in the second year, his performance in the past few years has been mediocre. I didn’t get a spot in the Spirit Gathering Array, and I didn’t get enough mission rewards.”

"Oh? Why is that?"

"Who knows? Maybe he doesn't need the Spirit Gathering Array quota and meritorious service rewards at all, or maybe he is so upright and takes the initiative to give us the opportunity." Lu Fang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, quite teasingly.

This is obviously an irony. If the family is rich, the quota for the Spirit Gathering Formation can indeed be waived, and the rewards do not matter, but merit cannot be given up. In Taixuan Sect, if you want to get promoted, merit points are a necessary condition.

Golden elixirs produce millions of spirit stones and pills every year, which is not worth mentioning to disciples with strong backgrounds and well-off families, but no one wants to stay in the realm of golden elixirs all their lives and wait for death, regardless of their qualifications or temperament. No matter what, everyone has the desire to make progress on the great road.

The advancement of cultivation requires a large amount of cultivation resources. Without corresponding positions, you will not get the resources of the sect, and you will eventually reach the end of the cultivation path in a vicious circle.

You need to know that spiritual practice is a bottomless pit. No matter how rich a person is, sooner or later he will eat all his food in one day. Millions of gold elixirs and spiritual stone elixirs are nothing to some people, but if you are a god, you will need all the elixirs in a year. The medicine costs hundreds of millions of spiritual stones.

The reason why those people from well-off families have abundant financial resources is due to their own power. Without power and power, no matter how high their cultivation level is, they can only be free and independent practitioners at most.

If you want to grab a piece of meat from other forces, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky.

For example, Fang Dasheng, as the leader of the alliance, has many private properties in Xuantang City, involving all walks of life. With these properties, he can make a lot of money in the future, and he can be said to be rich.

And the reason why he can get involved in various industries is because of his status as the leader of the alliance.

Without the support of this identity, how could those chambers of commerce, aristocratic families, and various sects give him the face and let him take food just because he was a monk at the level of becoming a god?

Taking this as an example, we can conclude that financial resources come from power, power comes from positions, and positions come from many aspects, among which meritorious service is an indispensable part.

No merit, nothing.

Han Fu relied on his close relationship with Hao Jianren to be defeated by Yu Gan. This was something Tangning never expected. There were only two possibilities for this situation.

The first was Han Fu's initiative.

Second, there was a conflict between him and Yu Qian.

Although they didn't have many interactions with him, Han Fu left a deep impression on him. This person seemed like a young man who had never been involved in the world in the palace, and even felt like a fool.

He is usually taciturn and unsmiling, but when he opens his mouth, he looks upright and full of great truths. To be honest, he is actually quite annoying.

You are not a three-year-old child, what important principles do you need him to explain? Who here didn't come up all the way, can't see more clearly than him.

If nothing else, the remarks made in the meeting hall today were simply childish, whimsical and unrealistic.

The use of heavy codes in troubled times, and the harsh punishments and laws may seem reasonable at first glance, but upon closer consideration, they simply cannot stand up to scrutiny.

As far as the actual situation is concerned, using heavy codes and severe punishments is self-destruction.

Not to mention the complicated internal personnel affairs of Taixuanzong, just talk about the current situation in the world. Outside, the demons of Mubei are peeping and watching, and inside there are Netherworld Sea organizations that are hostile, and Qingzhou Xuanmen is ready to move and want to break away from Taixuanzong's control for a long time!

Even a second-rate force like the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce dared to openly confront Taixuanzong, which shows how far Taixuanzong's control in Qingzhou has declined.

Now is the time to employ people. As long as they are capable people, they should be used in an exceptional manner regardless of their virtues. Why should we use severe punishments and severe punishments? If everyone below is in danger and the sect is alienated from morality, it will be nothing but self-destruction.

If we really want to rectify the rules and regulations, this is not the time. Things may be light or serious, slow or urgent. Tai Xuanzong's top priority now is to prepare for the return of the Mubei demon and other forces' spying on Qingzhou.

The laxity of discipline has been around for a long time! It didn't happen in a day, and the problem was very complicated. It couldn't be solved in one or two strokes. Moreover, for Taixuanzong, this was just a scabies disease, not a personal problem.

Tang Ning and Lu Fang chatted for a long time while exchanging glasses of wine. After drinking for three rounds, Lu Fang finally revealed his purpose: "Junior Brother Tang, I'm going to tell you the truth. I have something to ask of you today."

"Senior Brother Lu, if you have anything to do, it doesn't matter what you say. I will try my best to do what I can."

Lu Fang said: "With Junior Brother Tang's words, I feel much more at ease. Before, I had been hesitant about how to speak."

"Actually, it's not a big deal. You know, I'm preparing to have a baby. This is the thing that will impact the birth of a baby! There are still a few things left, and my money is quite tight and I can't get so many spiritual stones at the moment, so I want you to use some. "

"You haven't returned to the headquarters for several years, and your salary has been backlogged. You must have some spare money on hand. Of course, if you have other uses, forget it. Just pretend that I didn't ask."

"If you don't need it urgently, can you lend me some money? Don't worry, no matter what the final result of my attack on the child is, the spirit stone will definitely be returned to you when the salary is paid next year."

"If you are worried about something unexpected happening to me when I give birth to a baby, I have a few protective magic weapons with me and some cultivation objects that I have kept privately over the years. I will arrange them when the time comes, and you can each take them."

Tang Ning said: "Senior Brother Lu, what are you talking about? We are all brothers in the same team. If you personally humble yourself and come to this humble abode, how can I still hold on to the things you have for me?"

"But there's something I need to tell you in advance. I'll go to Donglai County first. I've spent all my spiritual stones. After I came back, I received my four-year salary, which is all my property."

"I definitely have to keep some for personal use, and I also have to prepare the appropriate things for the birth of a baby in advance. I'm afraid I won't be able to get too much. Senior Brother Lu must be able to understand this."

Since Lu Fang was talking about this, it was natural that he would not reject it outright. They always met each other with their heads down but not up. They got along pretty well on weekdays. Even though there were some stakes involved, at least they were friendly and kind on the outside. You still have to take care of your feelings.

What's more, Lu Fang is attacking Yuanying this time. If he successfully conceives a baby, it's unknown what will happen in the future. He may not be able to serve as an errand under him in the future. If he doesn't show any mercy at this time, he may not hold a grudge in his heart in the future. .

Furthermore, it is better to have more friends and more paths than to be hated by others, let alone just for a few spiritual stones.

"I remember that Junior Brother Tang, you were only twenty or thirty years old when you broke through the golden elixir! Did you start preparing for a baby so early?"

"You have to make preparations in advance. If I were asked to spend tens of millions to buy things for the baby, I wouldn't be able to come up with it at the moment."

"That's true. The reason I came here this time is to borrow five million spirit stones from you. I wonder if Junior Brother Tang can borrow it?"

"Five million?" Tangning pondered for a while, "Okay! Now that Senior Brother Lu has opened his mouth, if I want to bargain to avoid looking shabby, I will save a little and squeeze out five million to provide for Senior Brother Lu to have a baby."

"Thank you, Junior Brother Tang, for your generous help. If there is anything you need to do for me in the future, just give me the order and I will never leave you."

"By the way, Senior Brother Lu, aren't the merits you have accumulated over the years in our team enough to exchange for a baby gift?"

Lu Fang sighed slightly: "I am not as good as you, Junior Brother Tang. I have received such care from Uncle Yu since I came here. When I first left the sect and was assigned to the headquarters, it was the year 849 of Daoding. At that time, I was not the captain of the team. Master Yu, this is Master Zhang Kui. My cultivation level is low and I have no one to take care of me. I am unfamiliar with this place and it is rare for me to receive a mission in a year."

"After so many years in the alliance, I have become familiar with each other. It was not until Master Zhang Kui resigned and Master Yu became the captain of the team. Thanks to his care, I gradually received some mission rewards."

"The merits accumulated over the years, including those spent on using the spirit gathering array, total more than 3,000 points left. I plan to use the merits to exchange the sect for two items for childbirth, and then spend tens of millions of spirit stones to buy the remaining ones. "

"I want to attack Nascent Soul within five years. The cost of the entire creation is about 100 million spirit stones. After excluding the 3,000 points of merit points I have accumulated and exchanged for 30 million spirit stones, there is still a shortfall of 70 million."

"My salary is six million spirit stones, which is 30 million in five years. Adding in the 20 million spirit stones I have stored over the years, the total is only a shortfall of 20 million."

"It shouldn't be difficult to put aside my old face and ask all the brothers and sisters in this department to get 20 million."

"Since Senior Brother Lu has made a comprehensive plan, I wish Senior Brother a successful pregnancy as soon as possible."

The two of them drank and drank together in the cave, calling each other brothers until late at night. When Lu Fang was about to say goodbye, Tang Ning gave him five million spiritual stones from the storage bag, but Lu Fang insisted on staying. Leave with an IOU.
