Chronicles of Celestial Origins

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Tang Ning gradually became familiar with many affairs of the spirit mine. On the first day of December, the day when the heavy snow first fell, he ushered in the first year-end meeting of the brigade.

Huajian Pavilion, Fengwei Mountain, where the First Brigade is stationed. In the majestic and majestic hall, Xie Minghua takes the high seat and talks about various affairs eloquently.

Sitting first on the left below is Inspector He Lian of the First Brigade.

The first person on the right is Yu Qingxiao, the deputy captain of the First Battalion.

Several other stewards and the captains of the subordinate pavilions sat down on the left and right sides.

Tang Ning participated in this meeting as the acting leader. The team meeting is held every three months. Each team leader has to report to the team on various team affairs. Generally, deputy team leader Yu Qingxiao presides over the meeting.

The annual end-of-year meeting is personally presided over by the wing steward and brigade captain.

"Each team must prepare for the handover of materials and clear out warehouses." Xie Minghua said, "Funds for each department in the coming year will still be collected and distributed after completing all material surveys."

He Lianlian said: "Each team stationed in Tingcheng must properly handle the relationship with the local forces, especially the Xuanmen stationed there. If anything happens, they must report to the brigade at any time, and conflicts without permission are not allowed."

"As for the Nether Sea Organization branch stationed in Ting City, we must pay attention to their actions. If there is any behavior that crosses the line, we must report it in time. We must not take any actions of our own initiative."

"We must fully protect the rights and interests of the disciples of our sect, and we must also be alert to the rifts between disciples, maintain the harmony of the team, and deal with the signs in a timely manner to prevent conflicts from expanding."

………………

The discussion lasted for two hours before it was over. Tang Ning left Fengwei Mountain and traveled day and night to return to Jingyuanting Pingling Mountain Spirit Mine.

In the room, Tang Ning sat opposite Jiang Xinquan and faithfully conveyed to him Xie Minghua's instructions during the brigade's discussion.

Originally, it was not his turn to attend this meeting. It was Jiang Xinquan who should have gone. It was Jiang who offered to let him attend and familiarize himself with the process of the brigade's deliberations.

"This is a cliché. Every time we discuss things at the end of the year, we have to prepare for the handover of supplies. Normally, within twenty days, the brigade will send people down to collect the supplies."

"Uncle Xie asked us to clear the warehouse and check the warehouse. What does that mean?"

"From now on, all spiritual ore mining will stop counting and will no longer be included in this year's results. The elixirs grown in the spiritual veins must be harvested in a unified manner."

"Then should we continue to mine spiritual minerals?"

"No need, all mining and excavation will be stopped until next year."

Tang Ning asked many more questions until she fully understood the specific content and operational procedures of the matters Xie Minghua mentioned during this meeting.

A few days later, Jiang Xinquan convened a group meeting, and three disciples, including Fengyan Mountain and Xuangan Valley, were notified and came to participate in the meeting.

In the hall, Jiang Xinquan was sitting in the main seat. Below him were nine other disciples besides Chang Wei. Tang Ning kept talking and conveyed the contents of the group's discussions to everyone.

After speaking, Jiang Xinquan said: "From now on, all the cultivation resources under our team will begin to be cleared and sealed. Strictly, we will immediately lead people to check the number of spiritual stones in the storage room and seal them."

"Cheng Qian, submit the files on all mining matters."

"Yang Qiushui, prepare detailed reports of all expenses and income."

"Huang Qiansheng, retrieve all surveillance images from the backstage control room."

"Xu Fan, arrange the personnel dispatch."

"There are also Fengyan Mountain and Xuangan Valley. We are counting this year's harvest and preparing to pick elixirs."

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.

"Go! Make the handover of supplies and prepare for the brigade's review."

Everyone stood up and left the hall one after another.

The next day, Tang Ning and Jiang Xinquan began to inspect various affairs of the spirit mine. They first went to the storage room, where Yan Ming was already waiting with several recruiting disciples.

Together, everyone inspected the twelve stone boxes containing the spiritual stones excavated this year. The number of spiritual stones in each box varied, totaling more than 32,300.

Yan Ming handed over all the files from December last year to November this year, a total of twelve files, and each transaction was evidenced by files signed by Cheng Qian.

After checking the spiritual stones in the storage room, the two came to the mining area of ​​the spiritual mine. At that time, all the Qi Refining monks responsible for digging in the mining area had stopped working. Cheng Qian led several recruiting disciples and waited outside the formation.

Everyone first entered the mining area within the array to check whether the mining progress exceeded the standard, and then asked several of the following recruited monks about mining matters.

Then the two came to the Guard Hall and retrieved all the images in the Eye of Heaven and Earth surveillance area. Finally, they went to the Finance Hall and listened to Yang Qiushui's financial report.

In just one day, everything in the Ling Mine was arranged. In fact, these things had been prepared for a long time. After all, at the end of every year, material handover and inspection were required, and everyone was already familiar with the process.

After inspecting the spiritual mine, the two went to Fengyan Mountain the next day to supervise the harvesting of purple smoke fruits and poppies, and focused on viewing the image of the Eye of Heaven and Earth in the Herb Garden.

In just a few days, the team's three resource jurisdictions have completed the warehouse clearance process.

……………

Snow is falling heavily, and Pingling Mountain is covered in snow.

In the distance, a Xuanling ship shot up and stopped in front of the light curtain. A figure flashed out of it. He flipped his hand and the talisman disappeared into the room.

Not long after, the light curtain melted to create a gap, and several figures flashed out from inside.

The leaders were Jiang Xinquan and Tang Ning, followed by several disciples.

The two of them jumped up and arrived on the deck of the Xuanling Ship. Many stone boxes were already displayed. Yu Qingxiao, the deputy captain of the first brigade, led several disciples to stand on the bow of the ship.

The two of them stepped forward, bowed their heads, and exchanged a few pleasantries. The Xuanling Ship passed through the large array of light curtains and entered the inner room.

"Junior Brother Jiang, are the materials handed over by your team ready?" Yu Qingxiao asked as the Xuanling Ship arrived at the storage hall and everyone turned away from the light.

"I've been waiting for the brigade to receive it." Jiang Xinquan finished speaking. The cliff in front of him moved to both sides with a rumble, and everyone filed in.

There are dozens of huge stone boxes placed in the spacious hall. Each stone box has a note stuck on it, which displays the type and quantity of the items in the box.

"Senior Brother Yu, our team has mined a total of 32,370 high-grade spiritual stones this year. In addition, Fengyan Mountain Spiritual Veins and Xuangan Valley Spiritual Veins have mined 10,000 beads of fire sesame, clover, poppy flowers, and purple smoke fruits. Check it out here.”

Yu Qingxiao waved his hand, and a dozen monks behind him stepped forward to inspect the contents of the stone box one by one. Tang Ning accompanied him throughout the process.

After checking for about half an hour, the inventory of everything inside was completed.

The monks carried the stone boxes one by one to the Xuanling ship.

"Junior Brother Tang, Junior Brother Jiang, let's go to the mining area and have a look!" Yu Qingxiao put down the team coordination file and said.

The two nodded and said hello.

The group of people jumped up and arrived at the mining area. They first checked the progress of the spiritual ore mining.

"These are all the files on our team's spiritual mineral mining. Please take a look at it, Senior Brother Yu." Jiang Xinquan handed him a stack of files.

Yu Qingxiao took the file and read it for a while: "Call all the people who are recruiting for mining."

Jiang Xinquan waved his hand, and Cheng Qianhua disappeared into the light.

About a quarter of an hour later, one hundred Qi Refining monks gathered here and stood in front of everyone.

Yu Qingxiao casually pointed to the man with a large face and big ears: "What's your name?"

The man was stunned for a moment. After confirming that he was being called, a look of fear and nervousness flashed across his face: "Senior, junior Zhang Xiao."

"Zhang Xiao." Yu Qingxiao picked up the file in his hand and took a look at it: "How many spiritual stones have you mined this year? Please report them one by one."

"Juniors remember that more than ninety stones were dug out in February, more than eighty in May, ninety-three in August, and seventy-six in November."

"Um."

Yu Qingxiao nodded, pointed to another man and asked, "What about you?"

"Junior Wang You belongs to the mining team. In January this year, seventy-six pieces were mined, and in April..."

Yu Qingxiao asked four or five monks in succession before giving up. Then he went to the Finance Hall, checked the team's financial statements, asked about some expenses, and retrieved the surveillance video of the Eye of Heaven and Earth in the Guard Hall. Checked out a few episodes to review and watch.

After working for a while, the inspection was finally completed. It was already dark. The Xuanling Ship took off with the supplies. Tangning and Jiang Xinquan sent everyone outside the formation.

Yu Qingxiao said: "Before I set off this time, Master Xie specifically told me to focus on checking various matters of the fifth team. Because you are at the transition of the new and old, Master Xie is worried that there will be loopholes, so I have to check everything in detail. Check it out, Junior Brother Jiang, don’t misunderstand me and think that I am deliberately targeting you to embarrass you.”

Jiang Xinquan smiled and said: "Senior Brother Yu is serious. It is what we should do to truthfully explain to the brigade the progress of various matters in the brigade."

"Originally, I was worried that this sudden strict inspection would make you a little confused. It seems that I was overly worried. You have done a good job in handing over. I can also give Mr. Xie a reassuring explanation. Tangning, you have not been in office for a long time. , consider this a test of the progress of your affairs by the brigade! If you can complete this test, I believe you will be able to handle the inspections of the alliance and even the sect with ease. "

"This all depends on Senior Brother Jiang's planning and planning. I'm still far behind."

"Then you have to ask Junior Brother Jiang for advice."

"yes."

The three chatted for a few words, then Yu Qingxiao flashed, boarded the Xuanling Ship and headed northwest, and soon disappeared.

"Senior Brother Jiang, I just heard from deputy team leader that the team's usual inspections do not include so many items, so what exactly are they inspecting?" Seeing the Xuanling Ship disappearing from sight, Tang Ning asked.

"Normally, we just check the mining process of the spirit mine, as well as the number of spirit stones and medicinal herbs that should be handed over. We don't ask much about other things. Such a strict inspection like today may not happen once in decades. This is mainly because In order to prepare you mentally, it’s a rehearsal! It’s well-intentioned.”

The two of them entered the formation while they were talking, gathered the team and said a few words of encouragement before they dispersed and returned to the cave.
