In the Five Elements Sect,
outside the Internal Affairs Hall of the mountain gate, a large screen projected by the formation displayed a large number of new rules of the Five Elements Sect.
"New rules for restaurants: starting next month, the restaurants inside and outside the Five Elements Sect will no longer provide food for free. All food must be purchased at a price. The sect will distribute meal subsidies in the form of salaries every month. For the specific amount, please consult the Internal Affairs Hall..." "
New rules for the use of spiritual fields: starting this year, all tasks received by the sect for spiritual fields below the second level will be settled in spirit stones. The merit points remain unchanged. Please pay attention to the Internal Affairs Hall for specific details..." "
New rules for the Alchemy Hall...
" "New rules for the Talisman Hall...
" "..."
All the outer disciples were confused by the dozens of new rules. Many of them had been in the sect for decades and had lived and eaten in the sect, so they found it difficult to accept this change.
"How much money does the sect subsidize? Is it enough for me to eat?"
"I hope that the food won't be the same as pigs in the future."
"This is good. For people like me, fasting for two or three days is not a problem. This saves a lot of money."
"I protest. I don't accept it. Since ancient times, meals in the sect have been free. Why does the Five Elements Sect charge money while other sects don't?"
A group of disciples talked about it. Some agreed, some opposed, and some didn't care. They were all expressing their opinions.
·······
"Da Hu, Er Hu, don't say that I, your uncle, won't help you. Now that we have contracted the restaurant, you will be responsible for providing the spiritual grains for the restaurant in the future..."
"Yue Qing, the vegetables for the restaurant will be handed over to your people. I don't care who you use, but you must control the quality and price for me."
"Brother Yue Lin, if you have people, you can bring them with you. We can make money together..."
"Remember one thing, we only make the money we deserve. Don't touch any spiritual stone that doesn't belong to you..."
Lin Jiang was also mobilizing his team. He didn't have many people, mainly Yue Lin and Yue Qing, but there were also other people, Zheng Yi's two sons, Zheng Da Hu and Zheng Er Hu, etc. Further down, there were the people who were in the stronghold before.
"Brother Xiao, don't worry, I will definitely get this done. I have also negotiated with the Fu Hall. From now on, the talisman paper for the first-level spiritual talismans will be provided by us, and the rest will be divided up."
Yue Lin said. With the continuous promulgation of new sect rules, he also realized the huge business opportunities. The monthly meal allowance for outer disciples is at least two spiritual stones. With more than 100,000 people, that would be a business worth hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones. Moreover,
they can also develop mid-range spiritual meals, which are more expensive. There is no shortage of rich people among the outer disciples. Now they are the only one doing it. This is a monopoly.
"I have negotiated with the Fu Hall before, and I am still negotiating with the Dan Hall. If we can negotiate, it will be different."
"Can the Dan Hall still be negotiated?"
"Not sure yet. I haven't contacted several managers yet. If Senior Uncle Zou Yu can serve as a deputy hall master in the Dan Hall, there will be no problem. It depends on the decision of the higher-ups."
Lin Jiang shook his head. During this period, the Five Elements Sect has seen a frenzy of dividing up the sect's assets. Although they are all low-level resources, the higher-ups are not fools. If the amount is large, it is also a very terrifying profit.
They could only eat a little bit of the leftovers, and the real big part was eaten by those Yuanying elders, but even if it was just some leftovers, it was enough for them to eat until their mouths were full of oil.
Lin Jiang was not surprised by this, nor did he envy it. People should have self-knowledge and earn the money they should earn. If he was now a golden elixir, it would definitely not be this good, but who made him only in the late stage of foundation building.
"Uncle Zou Yu's alchemy skills are not very good"
"The deputy hall master does not necessarily need an alchemy master, it is different from before. In addition, the spiritual medicine garden has a chance to take a bite. I have recently learned from a master uncle in the spiritual medicine garden. I have already negotiated with several of his apprentices. The low-level spiritual medicine gardens in their hands will sell their excess spiritual medicines to us at a much lower price. If you have good alchemy talents, you can concentrate resources to train a few of them."
Lin Jiang continued, it was all an exchange of interests. He had already opened up several lines. If this opportunity was missed, it would be gone. He wanted to eat as much as possible.
"Brother, I will find a few people to give it a try."
"Okay, I won't go into details. I have already discussed it with the middle and upper levels. You guys can handle the details. Remember not to violate the rules. Be reasonable and compliant, and don't let others get hold of you."
"Brother, don't worry. We know what to do."
Yue Lin nodded. He had done this a lot. For people like them, the most important thing to do is to be familiar with the sect rules and know how to find loopholes in the sect rules.
After the discussion, Lin Jiang asked them to disperse first. Now is the time for preparation. There are many things to do and everyone is very busy.
·····
"Wan Jing, I heard that the elders have reconciled with you?"
Shi Yuntang appeared beside Zhang Wanjing and said to him. He had just received the news.
"Yes"
"How did you do it? "
"Divide the benefits"
"What are the new sect rules?"
"Yes, uncle"
"I don't understand. Isn't this going back to the old way?"
Shi Yuntang said. Zhang Wanjing went around in such a big circle, but he is back again. The interests of the elders are not lost?
"No, uncle, let me explain. First of all, the intention of the sect is to have more and more masters, not to share the benefits of the sect equally, right?"
"That's right."
"The sect invests millions of spirit stones in the Nascent Soul every year, but this is not enough, not enough for them to break through to the God Transformation stage. After all, resources must be invested in them. Instead of giving it to them for free, it is better to let them earn it. Besides, the benefits are here, and they must be given to others. It doesn't matter who they are given to."
"Then it's the same as before."
"It's different. In the past, they unscrupulously stole the sect's benefits, and they took it for granted that it was theirs, but now it is given after everyone compromised, and they can be replaced. Here are the sect rules. If their descendants don't live up to their expectations in the future, they can be replaced at any time."
"It's a bit confusing. I don't quite understand. Is it because I haven't taken care of worldly affairs for too many years and can't keep up with the current era?"
"Uncle, no matter how things change, they remain essentially the same. They seem the same, but they are actually completely different,"
Zhang Wanjing said. Shi Yuntang still shook his head. Listening to your words is like listening to your words.
"Let me put it simply. In the past, the elders of the sect lost the motivation to make profits from the outside world, and they just focused on the sect's small business. But now, the sect has changed and invested more of the sect's power into the outside world, which can make greater profits. This is something that benefits everyone in the sect."
"Can it really be done?"
"Uncle Master, just wait and see. There is no rule that the sect's changes must be good. It may also be worse. But we can't not do it just because it may get worse. We must keep trying and correct it when we make mistakes."
"Okay, I don't care. Do whatever you want."
Shi Yuntang shook his head. He had been away from the sect and worldly affairs for too long. He was a little uncomfortable with this change, but he didn't bother to care. Anyway, he wouldn't stay in the sect for long.
"If the descendants of Master Uncle want to take care of one or two, that's fine too."
"No need, my sons and grandsons died a long time ago, and those descendants have no feelings for me. Just live a plain life."
Shi Yuntang refused outright. He was more than a thousand years old, and his sons, grandsons, and even great-grandsons were all dead. He had only seen the remaining clansmen a few times, and they had no feelings for him. He didn't want to be bound by family ties, and his biggest goal now was to pursue immortality.
"Okay, when Master Uncle leaves, he can get money from the sect. Master Uncles are the pillars of the Five Elements Sect while they are alive,"
said Zhang Wanjing. In this reform, the interests of the Nascent Soul were basically not affected. They were affected in the front, and then compensated in the back, and the ancestors of the God of Transformation would not be affected.
"Ordinary resources are no longer useful to us. I don't want spiritual stones or anything like that. I only want spiritual medicines. You should cultivate more of them."
"We also discovered several precious minerals in the wilderness. We will increase investment in the next few years. I believe it will be of some use to you, uncle."
"Okay, you can do whatever you want. I won't leave in these years."
"Is there anything else, uncle?"
"Yes, your other uncles will come back in a few years."
"Is something big happening in Yunzhou?" "
Maybe. Anyway, you don't have the ability to handle it, so we can handle it."
Shi Yuntang nodded. There are tigers hiding in Yunzhou. They are not even tiger cubs, but have become a disaster. Not only is he worried, but so are the Zhonghang Sect and the Yunjian Sect. They have already communicated with each other. In the next few years, the Yunjian Sect will also have some gods returning to deal with it together.
