During the few days that Qi Xuansu was in the camp, in addition to being busy with his own errands, he also took some time to get in touch with Yao Qi, a fourth-level wine-offering Taoist priest, through the Taoist communication method.
In fact, as of today, Qiniang has not quit the Taoist sect and still retains her identity as a Taoist priest. She also gave her avatar the clothes of a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, but she is no longer developing in the Taoist sect. Then Qi Xuansu contacted a person
It is natural and reasonable for Taoist priests to offer four-course wine sacrifices.
Qi Xuansu mainly asked Qiniang to do two things. The first thing was about the case of the so-called classmate slandering him, and the second thing was about Fan Ji. He had given Fan Ji a fellow Taoist priest, and Fan Ji was ready to reorganize
When the fleet goes out to sea, it is natural for Master Yao to take care of the trade. As a reward, Qi Xuansu gave Qiniang 40% of the shares and Fanji 60%. Qi Xuansu did not take any money and only asked Fanji to follow his orders when necessary.
act.
This kind of cooperation is also normal in Taoist sects. The top figures of the family develop within the Taoist sect and support the sect. Some of the side disciples with average qualifications do not become Taoist priests and turn to business to support the family. Otherwise, what do those wealthy families rely on to survive? Rely on regular money.
Feed a big family?
As long as there is money to be made, Qiniang will not embarrass Qi Xuansu. So Qi Xuansu wants to get some discounts from Qibaofang for free, but it can’t be done because Qiniang has already quit and is not the rotating owner of the shop, so talking is useless. But if he gives 40% of the shares, then
No problem. Although Qiniang has withdrawn, her feelings are still there, and her words are still listened to. All she needs to do is give her instructions on this little matter.
Whether Qiniang's words are effective now is an unsolved mystery.
In fact, Qiniang is also quite interested in Fan Ji.
She has personally gone to sea and is familiar with the situation at sea. In today's world, very few women wander on the sea, because after going to sea, during the long sailing journey, a relatively closed and isolated environment was formed on the ship, where men and women coexisted.
There is no guarantee that something will not happen that is not conducive to unity.
The situation when Qiniang went to sea was different, she was disguised as a man.
So looking at the entire Eastern world, there are not many female captains. This is like a female emperor. She does not need to have outstanding political achievements. She can be famous in history just by becoming an emperor as a woman. The same is true for female captains. Their existence itself is
It's a reputation that spreads easily.
Under such circumstances, it is not difficult for Qiniang to find out the details of Fan Ji.
After investigation, Qiniang is quite satisfied with Fan Ji. She is an independent and self-reliant woman who is ambitious, capable, and knows how to advance and retreat. There are too many people with outstanding abilities who are driven by their own ambitions.
Burned alive, although Qiniang doesn't care whether such a person lives or dies, it is easy for such a person to leave a mess. If he dies, others will have to pay for it.
He cleans up the mess, so Fan Ji is particularly valuable and a malleable talent.
As a senior, Qiniang doesn't mind supporting this underachiever.
Even though Qiniang looks young, she doesn’t seem to be much older than Fan Ji, but in fact, Qiniang is the same age as Master Cihang, Master Donghua, and Master Qingwei, and is even the same generation as the three deputy masters.
Da Zhenren is a peer, and there is no problem in saying that he is an old-timer.
However, Qiniang, as a veteran in the business world, will also use some methods, such as adding sand to Fan Ji's fleet and arranging her own people to ensure that she will not lose control of the fleet. At the same time, she will also arrange people to go deep into the details.
Investigate Fan Ji's past experience to ensure that she is not a spy from another force.
As for Qi Xuansu, if he wants to pursue an official career in Daomen, his face should not be stained with dust, so he does not need to be involved in specific matters, or even know about them. He only needs to know a general result.
Of course, Qi Xuansu is not just a decoration. He will provide official protection, open up some connections, and learn some inside information, such as the latest decree of Shibotang, etc.
These are not free. At critical moments, Huan Ji even has to lose money to help Qi Xuansu solve some problems. After Qi Xuansu goes to the local Taoist government, he cannot do without Taiping money if he wants to make a difference, especially when the Taoist government is in short supply.
Or when there is no such budget, whoever can legally and reasonably get the money to accomplish this task will immediately stand out, and future promotions will be guaranteed.
When the Fenglinzhou war is over, Qi Xuansu can even give Fanji a noble status in Fenglinzhou through Toyotomi Prime Minister's Office, such as a viscount, and Toyotomi Hidemo will still give her this face.
A wealthy, noble-born, Fenglinzhou female merchant who is friendly with the Taoist sect can be put on the table openly. How did she get to know Deputy Palace Master Qi? Naturally, they established a strong relationship during the Fenglinzhou war.
This friendship can withstand scrutiny. After all, it involves war, which means death and chaos. There will be many things that cannot be explained or investigated clearly, and it can only be a confused account.
Qiniang can hide behind the scenes and avoid unnecessary troubles.
As for Zhang Yuelu, he will probably serve in Wuzhou and Jiangnan. He is at his doorstep and has the support of the Zhang family and the Cihang lineage. This is not a problem at all and Qi Xuansu does not have to worry about it.
Qiniang is even more satisfied that after several years of experience, Qi Xuansu has clearly "enlightened" and initially understands how to play within the rules of the Taoist sect. Every place and every organization has its own
The rules, whether they are explicit or implicit, must first be familiar with them and learn them. Then find a thread in these messy rules, twist and turn, and seek the greatest benefit without touching the red line of the rules.
.
And you must understand one thing, different positions, different responsibilities, different division of labor. As a face, you can't do the things of the lizi, it will dirty your own hands. As a lizi, you can't pretend to be a mianzi, because how to wash
, the inside is not clean.
Cooperation is a long-term matter and should not be rushed. The top priority is to solve another matter, which is about the slander of Qi Xuansu who started chaos and gave up.
The face should be kept bare and not covered with dust. If the blood bleeds, the face should be contained. If it cannot be contained, if it leaks onto the face, it will be a serious matter.
When face is tarnished, someone has to get rid of someone.
This matter is not big or small.
It is easy to spread rumors, but difficult to refute them.
Fortunately, this matter was suppressed by the Heavenly Master before it was fermented. If it spreads, no matter whether it is true or false, it will cause irreparable damage to Qi Xuansu's reputation. Especially many women like "empathy" and uphold a kind of
If I don't speak for her today, and if I encounter similar things in the future, no one will speak for me, I will definitely denounce Qi Xuansu regardless of right or wrong.
By the time Qi Xuansu refuted the rumors, the heat of the matter had passed, and no one cared about it. In most people's minds, Qi Xuansu had been labeled as a heartless person, and it would be difficult to change it throughout his life. Others said
When you think of him, you are abandoning your wife and children, and it may even affect his future.
Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents.
So what's the point of interrupting one's official career?
This is nothing more than murder and heart-wrenching.
Qi Xuansu's anger can be imagined.
Qiniang naturally had to stand up to protect the calf at this time.
Furthermore, if Qi Xuansu is ruined, then all her years of hard work and such a large investment will be wasted. As a miser, wouldn't Qiniang be angry?
So before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Qiniang had already found and controlled the woman.
Qi Xuansu must follow the rules, but Qiniang does not follow the rules. If he wants to follow the rules, he is still a secret society. Besides, the rules are not made by humans? They are not the rules of heaven.
Qiniang could make this woman disappear without a trace without causing any ripples, but Qiniang didn't do that. She wanted to follow the clues and dig out the person behind the scenes.
She wanted to see who dared to disturb Tai Sui.
So Qiniang took the person to Bohai Mansion and placed him in Wutong Courtyard.
This place is almost Li Qingnu's private property. Qiniang has always treated everyone equally, and even if she takes advantage of Qi Xuansu, she will not let Li Qingnu go. She often stays here for a few days, and arranges her own people, gradually turning this place into her own.
A stronghold of.
According to Qiniang's opinion, if the Li family was responsible for this trick of raping women, it would most likely be related to Li Tianyue. Li Qingnu was the successor trained by Li Tianyue, so he should have heard about it.
But what disappoints Qiniang is that this matter has nothing to do with the Li family.
It can't be the work of the Zhang family or the Yao family.
But if you think about it carefully, it is really possible. It makes sense that the Zhang family is afraid of Zhang Yuelu, and the Yao family is afraid of Qiniang, so they finally resorted to Qi Xuansu.
As a result, things become complicated.
So Qiniang began to slowly interrogate and interrogate, and she must dig out the mastermind behind the scenes.
Just as Qi Xuansu was attending a gathering of Taoist patriots in Yizhi County, Qiniang was lying on Concubine Xiang's couch, holding a cigarette rod filled with fine tobacco leaves. The only thing missing was a little maid beating her legs. She looked exactly like the old feudal lord.
of style.
After a while, Li Qingnu walked in, carrying a bit of the bloody smell that had not completely dissipated.
The struggle within the Taoist sect has always been cruel, and no one can be exempted from vulgarity, let alone a perfect moral person. Qiniang will not do such things personally, the main thing is to train Li Qingnu - since Li Qingnu cannot follow the official career of the Taoist sect,
If you can't gain face, you will naturally have to be a lizi.
As for that woman, how could she come back with her whole body intact after doing such a murderous and heart-breaking thing? Do you really not regard Qiniang as a ruthless and ruthless boss of a secret society?
Qiniang didn't wear sunglasses and raised her eyelids, "What's the result?"
Li Qingnu replied, "I told her that if she didn't tell me, then I would have to use the soul search method. This was her last chance, so she finally did it."
Qiniang sat upright and said, "Every day, we recruit a little bit and squeeze in little by little. It's such a waste of time. What did she say?"
Li Qingnu said, "According to her confession, they are a gang. She feels that Tianyuan is a poor boy with no background. He has just started to gain influence. He has not yet had in-depth contact with the upper echelons of the Taoist sect. His vision is not broad, his foundation is not deep, and he does not know some methods.
I just want to use this matter to force Tianyuan to bow his head and make a fortune."
Qiniang snorted coldly, "This kind of nonsense can only deceive others. Does she think I'm a fool? It's so shameless. There's no need to wait. Let's search for my soul immediately."
