Pawn Crossing the River

Qi Xuansu has been cultivating his confidants and developing everywhere he goes.

When he was in Fenglinzhou, in addition to official business, he recruited Fanji. Later, Qiniang, Fanji, and Pei Xiaoyun jointly established Fenglinzhou Trading Company.

Later, Qi Xuansu went to Borneo. Needless to say, this could not be said to be Qi Xuansu's hometown, but it was not far away. Donghua Zhenren's people, Qi Xuansu's people, Zhang Yuelu's people, and Landa Zhenren's partiality, together basically control the Borneo Taoist House, making Yao Shu, the real person in charge, very powerful.

Next, Qi Xuansu plans to change his secretary and release Chen Jianqiu to Borneo, and then take root in Borneo.

Today, Chen Jianchou is a fourth-grade Taoist Priest of Jijiu, and the next level up is a third-grade Taoist Priest of Youyi. When released, he can be a low-ranking deputy palace master or assistant manager of a branch hall. Specifically, whether to be the deputy palace master or the assistant manager, Qi Xuansu prefers the deputy palace master, because the deputy palace master is a member of the Taoist government, and the branch assistant manager has to accept dual leadership.

However, Qi Xuansu would have to discuss the specific arrangements with Xu Jiaorong before deciding, and he would also need to ask Chen Jianqiu himself for his opinion.

Speaking of Xu Jiaorong, she is now the second deputy palace head. If Zhang Yuelu, the chief deputy palace master, takes over, it is best to let Xu Jiaorong take over. Although this is against the rules, it makes sense because the overseas Taoist palace chief is stable. At the beginning Wang Jiaohe was promoted all the way to the Borneo Taoist Palace.

As for why the Fenglinzhou Taoist Office changes its personnel so frequently, the reason is very simple. What it wants is instability. If it is stable, how can it start a war in Fenglinzhou? How to use the heads of the Zunping sect as a stepping stone?

The more important point is that Xu Jiaorong’s master is Master Lan Da. Now Master Lan Da’s time is not too much. As the saying goes, tea is cool when people leave. Master Lan Da must take advantage of the fact that he is still alive and still in his position. It shouldn't be difficult to talk the talk and help him in the end to get Xu Jiaorong to take over as the chief deputy palace master.

In this way, the three consecutive chiefs are all from Qi Xuansu's side. Although Qi Xuansu will probably not be able to become the real person in charge of the Borneo Taoist House, he can still control the Borneo Taoist House.

If Xu Jiaorong succeeds in taking the position, then a position will be vacant. Qi Xuansu and Donghua Zhenren discussed privately and believed that Pei Xiaolou was a suitable candidate. This guy has been messing around for so many years and has finally reached the immeasurable stage. It is really not easy.

It makes people laugh when I say it. My brother is already an immortal. My wife has worked hard over the years and has also entered the stage of creation from the immeasurable stage. There is no suspense about becoming a pseudo-immortal, and she may even have a chance to reach the realm of human immortality. As a result, Pei Xiaolou is not as good as many younger generations. He has been wandering in the carefree stage in the past and is a typical example of not wanting to make progress. Whenever Pei Xiaolou fights for his words, he can

At this stage of creation, with the power of Master Donghua, it is not a problem to promote him to Master Shenzhi.

Speaking of which, Pei Xiaolou did not play with Lin Yuanmiao and Ji Jiaozhen in vain. Among the "Three Friends of Nanyang", the eldest Lin Yuanmiao has the highest cultivation level and is in the real pseudo-immortal realm. The second eldest brother Ji Jiaozhen is in the first time. When he met Qi Xuansu, he was already in the immeasurable stage. With one palm he pushed the heavenly warrior off his horse, and now he is about to be blessed. Pei Xiaolou had fallen so much. Compared with the other two, dragging the whale carcass was even more difficult, so he had to be more courageous and aware of his shame.

Fortunately, Xiao Yin was not absorbed into the group. If Xiao Yin was allowed to join, the three friends would become four friends, and Xiao Yin's level of cultivation would be able to ride on Pei Xiaolou's head. He would still be at the bottom, and even more shameless.

In fact, Qi Xuansu prefers Ji Jiaozhen as the second deputy palace master. However, Ji Jiaozhen is indifferent and does not like these secular affairs. He is very reluctant to be a deputy palace master. If he is asked to be the second deputy palace master, he is afraid that he will have to do it. Leave your choices behind and cannot force anything.

That could only be Pei Xiaolou. Although Pei Xiaolou didn't want to be the second deputy palace master, he was pressured by Master Donghua, so he had to obey his brother's words.

Now that Qi Xuansu has arrived in the New World, of course he will continue to do this. First, he will develop his connections in Xidaomen. Second, he will leave some "traces" and let Zhang Wuyue come over to test the waters first. If this kid is a talent, then Qi Xuansu will let him continue to work. If this kid is not good and is a playboy, just as Qi Xuansu said in advance, he will go home and grow old.

Recently, the more Qi Xuansu thought about it, the more he felt that what Jiang Dazhen said made sense. The name was given by the superiors, and the power was not rare.

This is like walking in the name of God, but God can only give you a name to make you famous, and your name is justifiable, but it cannot give you real power, which is the fighting brothers under you. , giving you power.

So some things must not be reversed. Some people always like to say that the name is given from below, but the power is given from above. In the name of common people, is that useful? useless. But if the common people can really give power, the key depends on whether you can mobilize it. If you mobilize it, it means changing the dynasty and reestablishing the order of power.

Thinking about it this way, it is easy to understand what Jiang Dazhen said. He does have a high status and a great name, but these are just names. The real power comes from below. This is exactly what Jiang Dazhen lacks.

of. The so-called lineage of the Grand Master is actually very loose, so it is neither the fourth nor the fifth path. Jiang Dazhen, the nominal leader, is more like an alliance leader than a leader.

On the other hand, the three divisions are all real leaders, so they have real power.

On a more minor note, does Li Tianzhen have any position? No, he is just a wandering Taoist priest, but he can make things happen. He does have power.

Speaking more broadly, the position of the Sixth-generation Grand Master cannot be higher. The Grand Master, the first Taoist priest, no one is greater than him. Emperor Daxuan was only the second Taoist priest, but he was ignored. He does not possess the power commensurate with his status.

This all shows that the name above cannot replace the power below.

Qi Xuansu wants to understand this. He can't just climb up and become the second Jiang Daren, or the second Sixth Generation Grand Master. He must have his own team.

To put it bluntly, Qi Xuansu neither wanted to "be a farmer in the morning and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening", nor did he want to "write a letter to the Nine Heavens in the morning and be demoted to eight thousand people on Chaozhou Road in the evening". He doesn't want others to control his destiny, but wants to control his own destiny.

However, his time is still too little. If you give him another twenty years, when Chen Jianchou, Zhang Wuyue and others have developed, it will be a different story.

Zhang Yueyue didn't quite understand this at first, because Qi Xuansu couldn't speak clearly. He was just a brother-in-law, not his father-in-law, so he couldn't say something heartfelt. It was Zhang Yuelu's turn to say it. It’s up to Zhang Wuyue to realize this. If you understand it, use it; if you don’t understand it, don’t use it. It can also be regarded as a test.

Zhang Wuyue was still a bit spiritual, but he gradually came to understand what his first priority was. It was by no means as simple as making money, let alone putting money into his own pocket, but integration and development.

A storyteller just writes without any related industry, even if he is sitting on millions of dollars, that's all. No one is afraid of you, and no one respects you.

A workshop owner with a net worth of millions is completely different. He already has a somewhat powerful character.

Zhang Wuyue listened to Kunqu Opera outside the window and discussed a rough cooperation intention with Qian Xisheng, and then the two made an appointment to have a formal discussion in a few days. Then Zhang Wuyue had to report to Qi Xuansu, and then return to the Central Plains to visit the three "souths" of Nanyang, Lingnan, and Jiangnan one by one.

Qi Xuansu will introduce someone to Zhang Wuyue, such as Pei Xiaoyun, Qi Muyu, Chen Jianqiu, Shangguan Ya, etc. Zhang Wuyue is allowed to go to these people under his banner, but how to make friends specifically?

He said, how to negotiate a business, Zhang Wuyue has to figure it out little by little. Qi Xuansu will not pave the way step by step - firstly, there is no time, and secondly, as the old saying goes, he is not his biological father, there is no need, and giving him the best chance is already the best. If you can't do it, then find someone else to do it. There really are plenty of people to do it.

The Kunqu opera outside the window was still singing. I had good physical strength and a good voice. I actually sang until half past midnight.

Zhang Wuyue stood up to say goodbye. He Shaoyang asked him to spend the night here. He had already paid for it, and the two delicate beauties could not be wasted.

Zhang Wuyue still refused, and the reason was very fair: "I won't sleep tonight. I will prepare all night. We will have a good talk in a few days and then report to Master Qi. This is a big project."

Qian Xisheng was also a little excited and rubbed his hands, "Brother, don't be too anxious. The work can't be done in one day."

Zhang Wuyue smiled and said, "If you are late, you will make less money. How much peacetime will it cost? When this thing is done, you will have plenty of time, so you can enjoy it slowly."

"My brother is right. There will be plenty of time in the future, and the days ahead will be long." Qian Xisheng nodded repeatedly.

He Shaoyang said, "I will arrange for someone to send you off."

Judging from the meaning of He Shaoyang's words, he was going to stay overnight and couldn't waste it. Since Zhang Wuyue doesn't want to eat, then he and Qian Xisheng have three each. Looking at Qian Xisheng's excited state, it would be no problem for him to have six of them together, let alone three.

Zhang Wuyue waved his hand, "Is there no problem with Xingang's safety? I drank a lot tonight and wanted to go for a walk alone, just in time to sober up."

He Shaoyang said, "It's safe, of course it's safe. In order to prevent people from the Gospel Ministry from causing sabotage, Master Huangfu specially mobilized two thousand spiritual officers to patrol day and night. I walk along the main road and don't go into the alleys. There are spiritual officers on duty along the way." "

Zhang Wuyue nodded and said goodbye to the two of them. Under the guidance of the young woman in charge, he left the courtyard and walked back alone.

Halfway through, Zhang Wuyue suddenly saw a drunk man lying on the roadside, and he felt familiar for some reason.

He came closer and took a closer look, and couldn't help but be surprised, "Why are you here!"

The drunk man stretched his body and woke up with drunken eyes. He wanted to get angry and scold Zhang Wuyue for disturbing his dream, but when he saw Zhang Wuyue's face clearly, he suddenly woke up and covered his face with his hands. "You've got the wrong person! You've got the wrong person."

Zhang Wuyue grabbed his sleeve and said, "I didn't admit it wrong. I also know you when you turned into ashes."

"Wrong person!" The drunkard wanted to escape, but Zhang Wuyue grabbed him tightly and couldn't break free.
