Chapter 398 Reaching a Compromise [Jia Geng for Alliance Leader Renault Chen]
Wang Chuquan's face was uncertain, which made Hou Zi very disappointed with Wo Jiao, his ally.
When he first discussed the Taoism in the southwest, he found that the monks of the Wo Sect were in a terrible state, not because of their poor strength, but because they did not work hard, which showed that this ally was half-hearted and was treading two boats.
The origins of the Wo Sect are very complicated and difficult to explain in one sentence. Like all the sects on the mainland, they are inextricably linked to the Taoist Sect. Now it is defined as a Demon Sect, which is completely the Taoist Sect's goal of excluding dissidents. They always have to find some targets, some
Those with distant bloodlines, those who are less obedient, and those whose orthodoxy has mutated.
But Wojiao's problem is not only about inheritance, but also about profits. Bai Qingqian once mentioned to him that the main source of tax revenue for the Mirage City Chamber of Commerce comes from the Taoist kingdom, accounting for 70% of the entire proportion. Such a large
Of course, the ratio will make the host jealous and not dare to offend easily. Even if the Yanmen are nominal allies, they will not be of much practical help in Mirage City.
Interest determines everything.
Therefore, what was originally a very simple and easy-to-judge case has become divisive here in Jiedu Mansion. In the world of cultivation, is killing a person a problem? Never!
Cultivation is a high-risk profession. Acting in Dharma fights and fighting life-or-death battles is the daily life of cultivators. Without this level of awareness, what kind of cultivation is there?
The Taoist sect uses profit to oppress, but the Yan sect uses life and death to persuade. Which one is more important?
Naive people will think that people who are in reality of life and death only look at benefits; because benefits are more real, and if the teachings no longer exist, it does not necessarily mean that the individual practitioners do not exist either. This is the subtlety of Wang Chuquan's hesitation.
But he must make a decision today, because Hou Zi has already shown his intention to make things worse. By then, no one will have a good life, and this is not the result that the Jiedu government wants to see.
These sword cultivators are too ferocious and brutal, which can be seen just by looking at their style. Therefore, we still have to use the best skills of Jiedu Mansion, and Xinni.
I don’t want to pretend anymore. We can’t talk about anything too profound with these embryo-killers, so we might as well go straight to the point.
"Fang Yazi can be released, but it is also true that five guests from Anhe Daomen were killed, so you must also pay the price. If you can agree to this, I can work together to see if there is any way to get the best of both worlds?"
Hou Zi did not hesitate, "Yes, I am not an unreasonable person. People are dead, so it is appropriate to pay for the coffin."
Wang Chuquan closed his eyes again and said nothing, but Hou Zi knew that he must be bargaining with some people; Wang Chuquan doing this in front of him so unscrupulously was actually telling him that Yanmen Sword Cultivator did not have absolute privileges in Mirage.
Hou Zi knew that what he said before was in vain. What people value is interests, and that has never changed.
It's an exchange of benefits.
It's normal. He, a small monk in the second level of Tongtian, wants to change the philosophy of doing things of a golden elixir master with just a few words. How is it possible?
Jiedu Mansion cannot be counted on; while losing confidence in it, he also became firm on some other idea.
After a moment, Wang Chuquan opened his eyes, "People from the Anhe Daomen Chamber of Commerce said that they do not need to hold Fang Yazi responsible for his crimes, but they will share the Runbai family's property.
They don’t need your share of the stock, but half of the share that belongs to the Bai family will be given to Beringzhong and his son for management, as the price for the death and injury of five people this time, are you willing to accept it?"
This is a bit loud. Where is the foundation of the Bai family? Hou Tzu's equity is only 30%, which means that another 30% was divided by the Bai family and his son for nothing, and a good industry was divided into three.
The other party cleverly connected the pensions of the five people with the identity of the Bai family father and son.
But this is an offer, not a fixed price, and there is still room for quarrels and exchanges. What Hou Ziping dislikes the most is that every penny has to be compared, so,
"But, please discuss the specific matters with Mr. Bai, and I will not participate."
Fang Yazi must be fished out as soon as possible. There is too much filth in the practice circle, and the methods are hard to guard against. This stupid Qing is also very courageous...
Wang Chuquan was a little surprised. He knew that the sword cultivator did not pay attention to the details of resources, but he did not expect that he could be so generous. It could also prove in disguise that he and the woman who headed the Bai family might not be as similar as the rumors.
A deep relationship?
"Okay, little friend, please speak quickly. Since you are happy, I am also happy. You can take Fang Yazi away now to calm down the situation as soon as possible and restore a stable and peaceful situation in Mirage City."
Hou Zi nodded in agreement, and then he showed the respectful attitude of a junior disciple. He said that stability and unity would definitely benefit from his coordination this time. At the same time, he could suppress the turbulent emotions in the city and achieve peace with two birds with one stone.
Seeing that Hou Zi was about to leave Tiren, Wang Chuquan was relieved of all his worries and was in a good mood, so he made fun of him.
"I heard that Hou Xiaoyou was born as a law official. Now it seems that he is a bit unworthy of his name. In fact, he is more concerned about the distance of human beings than the law."
Hou Zi stopped at the door, turned around and bowed, "The master of the palace is wrong! The laws are divided into thick and thin, and also deep and shallow. Looking into this matter carefully, the root cause is that some people want to profit from the internal conflicts of the Bai family. This is what happened later.
of casualties.
Those of us who abide by the law must investigate the root cause so that we can avoid past mistakes and avoid future consequences, and treat illnesses and save lives.
As for killing, what does it mean in the world of cultivation? Once you have entered cultivation, it is your duty to take life and death lightly."
...Bai Qingqian rushed to the gate of Jiedu Mansion and was surrounded by a sea of people. Countless cultivators raised their arms and shouted with red faces, shouting words that they themselves did not understand.
To build momentum for this time, the opponent spent a lot of spirit stones.
Bai Qingqian had no time to pay attention to this. She only fixed her eyes on the door and stretched her consciousness as far as possible into the Jiedu Mansion, fearing that there would be a collision of ideas and a battle inside.
One Hou Zi was already unsettling, and now with the helpless Fang Yazi, she wouldn't be surprised at all if the two of them fought their way out of the Jiedu Mansion.
During such anxious waiting, time passed little by little, and what made her a little strange was that the crowd of demonstrators was also dispersing.
Turning to look at An Lao, "Senior, didn't previous demonstrations last for a whole day, from morning to night? Why are there signs of waning now after only half a day?"
An Lao laughed and said, "Yes, three spirit stones a day, this is the market price; but today someone sent a letter to inform them to end the work early. I guess there should be some kind of agreement reached?"
Bai Qingqian was doubtful, but she didn't know what happened inside Jiedu Mansion, but she could see the situation outside very clearly. The crowd gathered strangely and moved inexplicably. In just a short moment, it was still bustling with people coming and going.
The streets have become empty, it is cool and very magical to walk on.
In the end, there were only a few of them left, standing on the long street, and they were particularly conspicuous.
At this moment, two people walked out from behind the gate of Jiedu Mansion. The one in front was as tall as a pine, and the one in the back was as sharp as a sword. They kept a distance of about ten feet, and their steps were in perfect sync with each other as they marched.
...I am hunting far away from the sea, my solitary sword is roaming wildly. I ride the wind across a thousand islands, look at the mountains and go to the festival camp. Pearls come to market and ships, and littoral leaves are all over the city. I bow to the king's mansion and calmly discuss the five armies.
