Half a month later, 60% of Tiansheng Sect's senior officials gathered in the main hall of the sect, several elders from the General Affairs Hall, the elders guarding the Sutra Pavilion, the elders who passed on the merits, the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall, and the heads of various departments. In addition to the necessary personnel on duty,
Other than that, basically everything has arrived.
"Everyone, be quiet. Leader Lin has called you here today to discuss the direction of the sect's development in the next few years or even decades. Now I will preside over the meeting.
Now let’s discuss the first item, about the disciples of the sect. In recent years, more and more disciples of the sect have passed away and have passed away. The number has increased to more than 30 people every year. Many of them have mastered the sect before they have passed away.
Because of his sudden death and retirement, he brought a lot of losses to the sect.
Therefore, after discussing with the General Affairs Hall, the leader decided to officially launch a retirement system. Disciples who open and condense their pulses will retire at the age of eighty. Ordinary disciples can choose to return to the common people or stay in the sect, important positions, special positions, and know the core secrets of the sect.
For example, the person in charge and technical staff of Qianling Wine can be postponed for three years, but they must stay in Shanmen and Gongming City, and the sect will honor them.
The Zifu monk is scheduled to retire at the age of 180. After retirement, he has two places to go. One is to freely choose whether to go to a mortal village or town, and the other is to work as a teacher at Shanmen College or in the mission hall.
The Preaching Hall is a newly established institution of the sect. Retired disciples can name themselves there and teach disciples with low cultivation level. The disciples have to pay the sect’s merit points. The specific price is decided by oneself, but the price must be clearly marked. Do you have any questions?
Any opinions?"
Zhang Mingtang chaired the meeting on behalf of Lin Xiao. Before the Tianluo City Ascension Conference, disciples were admitted once every three years. Most of these disciples had not broken through the Zi Mansion, so as time went by, more and more people became incarnations. Lin Xiao had already
The retirement plan was officially launched.
No one objects to this retirement plan. The rule is that the capable should be promoted and the weak should be demoted. The weak also includes age. If you are old and your physical strength is no longer enough, then replace it with someone younger.
"Since there is no objection, I will continue to say that the next step is related to personnel and the sect's financial resources. As of today, the sect's disciples have exceeded 6,000, and the Zifu monks have also exceeded 60. Except for Chen
Apart from the 800 people from the southern part of the country, the 200 people from Black Wind Valley who monitor the wilderness, and the 700 people who have reached retirement age, most of the remaining 4,000 people are concentrated on various spiritual mountains.
The large number of people consumes a lot of money. The expenses of Zifu monks and Daogang monks alone are close to 800,000 Xuanjing a year, especially the elixirs needed by Zifu. There are many third-level and above elixirs required, and the outsourcing reaches
The price is more than 60%, basically relying on external companies from Gongming City to purchase, and the price is expensive.
Therefore, the sect has decided to set up a company, called Baicheng Company, which will be composed of fifteen Zifu monks and 500 pulse-opening and condensing disciples to sell and purchase resources for the sect. After the meeting, you can sign up freely, as long as you are not serving as a
You can apply for important positions.”
Then Zhang Mingtang talked about the business. Since the withdrawal from Baiyu City, the Tiansheng Sect has lost its purchasing channels for high-end resources. Now it relies entirely on the procurement of high-end resources from the businesses in Gongming City, but the business also needs to eat and earn money.
Profits are needed, so there is an urgent need for a business name belonging to Tiansheng Sect itself.
Lin Xiao decided to hand over this business to Bai Ziyu. Bai Ziyu's cultivation level has reached the tenth level of the Zi Mansion, and he has been in Baiyu City for decades and has rich experience. Lin Xiao is relieved to teach him.
This meeting is about these two major events, and there are many other small things, mainly personnel rotation and the like. The Zifu monks who are in charge of Lingshan in various places must be rotated to prevent the occurrence of cliques.
Secondly, there is the issue of financial resources. The production and sales of Qianling Wine are restricted, but the sect cannot stop expanding its financial resources. There are more and more Daogang monks in the Zifu. If we do not quickly open up new financial resources, sooner or later the balance of payments will be unbalanced, so we must advance
Be prepared.
Now the team of alchemists of Tiansheng Sect has surpassed the level of Danyang Sect, but the two sects have to avoid a price war, which is a matter of two losses, so the profits from elixirs are not very high except for fourth-level elixirs.
big.
Then we have to expand from other aspects. Talismans, weapons, and arrays are necessary. The other one is beast control. Tiansheng Sect and Ten Thousand Beast Sect of Tianlang Kingdom have cooperated for more than 20 years. After evacuating from White Jade City,
, Lin Xiao has already placed an order for a batch of monster cubs for Titoor.
Moreover, the Ten Thousand Beast Sect has promised to help the Tiansheng Sect cultivate beast masters. After many years of trying on their own, the beast masters of the Tian Sheng Sect have not passed the third level, so they can only spend money to hire others to train them.
After the talents are in place, the Tiansheng Sect not only has to breed monsters on its own, but also sell them to outsiders. Now the Lingshan cultivation in Lu State's states is becoming more and more mature. In addition, the general environment is stable and there is no war. Each sect has accumulated a lot of money.
Money began to spread towards the sect's foundation, and monsters were one of them.
For example, a monster with great potential that can grow to the sixth level can be purchased as a cub for only about 100,000 Xuan Crystals, and then the monster can be cultivated normally at the cost of 10,000 to 20,000 Xuan Crystals a year.
, maybe it can grow to the fourth or fifth level in a hundred or two hundred years. The lifespan of a monster is much longer than that of a human being. When the masters of the sect fall, maybe this monster will become the guardian beast of the mountain, so as long as the financial resources allow,
Every sect will have this plan.
The meeting lasted for a day, and Lin Xiao's will was implemented. Now the number of senior monks in Tiansheng Sect continues to increase, but there will be no one who can challenge Lin Xiao's authority. Lin Xiao has never thought about democracy.
It's true, but Lin Xiao won't be arbitrary. He only controls the general direction of the strategy, and the people below him will execute the specific matters.
In the evening, Lin Xiao found Bai Ziyu and told him about the establishment of the Hundred City Trading Company. After Bai Ziyu came back from Baiyu City, he was basically cultivating in hiding, and he also exchanged more than 20 years of merit points for a local-level company.
His skills and strength have greatly increased, and his combat power is among the best among the Tiansheng Sect's Zifu.
"Ziyu, do you have any ideas about the business name?"
"Back to the leader, I have understood the sect's intention. The businesses in the Hundred Cities will focus on the small and medium-sized Xiuxianfang City, and avoid big cities like Baiyu City. In this way, even if something happens, we can guarantee ourselves
safety and protect your own interests.”
"Very good. It seems that you have not stayed in Baiyu City in vain. You are enough to stand alone. The business must be based on Gongming City. Those who are stronger than Gongming City should not go. When to go depends on how strong the sect is.
After Bai Zichen breaks through, I will let him assist you, and you will be the main business owner."
"Thank you, Master, for your trust. Ziyu will never let down the sect's trust."
"In the future, the store will have multiple uses, including selling Qianling Wine and White Mist Tea, buying low and selling high, collecting high-level spiritual objects, and becoming an intelligence agency on the surface. At that time, Zhou Zhengzhe will place Night Owl personnel in the store.
, you have to assist him, and I can guarantee that he will not interfere in business matters."
"I will cooperate well with Junior Brother Zhou."
"Okay, then I will give you the authority again. After someone from the Zifu monks signs up, you can choose and hand it in together with the company's plan report. The General Affairs Hall will also cooperate with you."
Lin Xiao nodded, seeing that Bai Ziyu was now able to take charge of his own business, he decided to delegate power again and leave all business matters to him.
A few days after the sect meeting, Bai Ziyu recruited fourteen Zifu monks, and there were 500 disciples, many of whom had returned from Baiyu City, as well as some members of the war hall, and the company's martial arts
It must be guaranteed.
The company listed its business in Gongming City, set up its headquarters, and hosted a banquet for the heads of the large and small companies in Gongming City. There is also cooperation between the major companies, and they will rely on each other in the future.
Half a month later, Bai Ziyu left the Tiansheng Sect with a hundred people in advance, and went to open up trade routes and build channels for the company. Lin Xiao saw that the sect had no major problems, so he went into seclusion.
Lin Xiao still chose to retreat intermittently. After three years, there was no breakthrough in his cultivation, but he still came out to deal with accumulated matters and control the general direction of the sect.
Three months after leaving seclusion, a big event happened in Chunyang Palace. Chunyang Palace trained a second spiritual light monk, so Chunyang Palace decided to hold a promotion ceremony and a celebration banquet for the new spiritual light monk. All states in the Lu Kingdom
People will be sent to celebrate, and the scale will be the same as Lu Yan’s birthday hall last time. The top five sects in Tianyun Prefecture will all send people to participate.
Lin Xiao naturally knew that Chunyang Palace wanted to use this opportunity to show off its muscles and intimidate some forces, but Tianyunzhou really did not dare to refuse, so he forced himself to participate. The boss of Lu Guo's sect still had to give him face.
Five days later, the leaders of the five sects in Tianyun Prefecture gathered at the Danyang Sect. Lin Xiao had also received the specific information from Ye Xiao from Yujing City. The spiritual light monk who made the breakthrough this time was called Lu Muyang, who was also a disciple of the Lu family. He made the breakthrough a year ago.
, four hundred and fifty
If this age is exceeded, the probability of further reaching the Shenxu stage is already very small. However, it is still of great significance to Chunyang Palace. At least within four to five hundred years, Chunyang Palace will not
The monk who lacks spiritual light is in charge.
"Our Tianyun Prefecture takes at least five points of the credit for Lu Muyang's success. I really can't bear to think about it."
As soon as they arrived at the meeting of Danyang Sect, Zhao Minghai from Tianhaimen started to complain. It had been fifty years since Tianyun Prefecture offered sacrifices and provided tens of millions of Xuanjing to Chunyang Palace. This was all Tianyun Prefecture's hard work.
"Brother Zhao, be careful. You don't dare to say this in Yujing City. Chunyang Palace will have to trouble us by then."
"I don't know, I just feel unwilling to do so. When will we be able to break away from the control of Chunyang Palace?"
Zhao Minghai sighed and said that the strength of Chunyang Palace has increased dramatically in the past few decades. The reason is the offerings from Tianyunzhou and Chenqing Valley. The two families offered him 700,000 Xuanjing a year. Counted over decades.
However, it was a huge sum of money, and Chunyang Palace occupied a large area in the north of Chen State, which was the richest area in Chen State. Therefore, the financial resources of Chunyang Palace have increased significantly in recent years, and the annual income has at least increased than before.
More than one million.
With the financial income, we can increase our investment in disciples. Therefore, in the past few decades, not only has there been one more spiritual light monk, but also three more Taoist gangs and dozens of purple mansions. Moreover, this is the original sect of Chunyang Palace.
Their strength has increased, and the vassal forces following them have also increased in strength.
