Chapter 508
Yin Qingyuan smiled: "The financial reduction plan is in charge of the Yuanyi Temple, and I have no right to participate. I know that the intelligence department has heavy tasks and great responsibilities, but this matter is not my responsibility. To tell the truth, let alone you, even My personal budget has been cut."

Lu Guangdao: "The disciple knows that this matter is not under the jurisdiction of the uncle. However, there are difficulties in the department. I also ask the uncle to say a few words for us when we are discussing matters in the sect. If it is reduced by ten or twenty thousand, there is nothing to say, but That’s a lot less.”

"There are six departments under the Preceptor Academy, and we alone have reduced the number by [-], which is somewhat unreasonable."

"Although our funds are a bit high, we can also handle a lot of affairs. We are responsible for the intelligence of the entire Chu State and even Xingang. If we don't feed the people below, who will do the work of their lives."

"If you don't work hard, you will not only lose tens of thousands of spirit stones."

Yin Qingyuan smiled and said: "No one is willing to reduce the cost of spirit stones, but the Zongmen is indeed in financial constraints. The sect also has difficulties with the sect, I will talk to the Yuanyi Palace about the information department, but it is not up to me to decide whether it is useful or not."

"Thank you uncle, the disciple will leave."

Yin Qingyuan nodded slightly.

The two got up and left the cave, Lu Guang said: "Brother Tang, please go to the head teacher's office, I will go to Shi Shishu's."

The two parted ways and went their separate ways.

Not long after Tangning walked, she came to the Luo Qingshui Cave Mansion. With a wave of her hand, the talisman disappeared into the room.

Soon, the dense fog surged, and a ray of light flashed out, Yang Chang bowed his head: "Brother Tang, Master invites you in."

The two came to a living room, about tea time, Luo Qingshui came in from the outside, Tangning stood up and saluted, "Disciple pays homage to the head teacher."

"You're here, sit down! Why are you here?" Luo Qingshui walked to the main seat and sat down, asking.

Tang Ning took her seat according to her words: "This disciple took the liberty to bother Master Qingxiu because of the reduction of departmental funds. Senior brother Lu Guang and his disciples went to visit Master Yin just now. He made a statement about this matter. He suggested that I come to you. Looking for Uncle Shi, hoping to get more funding."

Luo Qingshui smiled and said: "Back then when you were imprisoned in embarrassment, it was he who manipulated you behind the scenes. Why are you still instructed by him today to lobby me?"

Tang Ning said: "Didn't Master Master say that? The reason why this disciple was imprisoned was because of his careless actions. He is no different from others. To be honest, although this disciple has resentment towards Lu Guang, it is not enough to deliberately become an enemy." point."

"If it's his personal selfishness, let alone helping him, this disciple can't wait to throw a quick stone and step on him."

Luo Qingshui smiled when he heard this.

Tang Ning continued: "But this matter is the official business of the intelligence department, and it concerns everyone in the department. As the supervisor of the department, how can I stand by and ignore it? It is commonplace to do something that hurts others but not self-interest. Smart people don't do it, let alone harm others and harm themselves!"

"Although the disciple is stubborn, he hasn't reached this point yet. As far as the reduction plan is concerned, once the cost of [-] spirit stones is reduced, I personally think it is too much!"

Luo Qingshui said: "It's good that you can separate public and private matters. I agree with Yuanyi Palace's plan to reduce finances. Of course, they will handle specific matters."

"Let me tell you the truth! Junior Brother Peng talked with me about this matter when he was first selected as the head teacher. I promised him not to interfere in this matter, and I will fully support it."

"It's not just you, the funds of everyone in the sect has been reduced a lot, even my head teacher is the same."

"You came to me today, it's a mistake. Only Junior Brother Peng can make a decision on this matter, and you can find him to help you."

Tangning understood. It seems that when Peng Wanli publicly supported Luo Qingshui as the head teacher in the last few days, they must have reached some kind of agreement in private: "If that's the case, that disciple is resigning."

Luo Qingshui nodded, and Tangning exited her cave and came to the meeting hall.

About a quarter of an hour later, Lu Guang also came and asked, "How is it? What did the teacher say?"

"No way, this matter is only for Mr. Peng to decide. What's Mr. Shi's attitude?"

Lu Guang shook his head.

Tang Ning had already expected that Sui was the master of the Qingxuan Palace in history, in charge of the sect's personnel affairs, how could he interfere with the sect's financial affairs?Moreover, the various ministries under the Qingxuan Palace also cut their funds. It was too late for him to look at the Qingxuan Palace, let alone discuss the intelligence department. This matter has nothing to do with him. With Lu Guang's face, it is impossible to convince him.

"It seems that there is no way out. It is imperative to reduce the funds of the department. How will the funds of the department be adjusted in the future?"

"Let's stick to the old way! The distribution method of three, three, two, two."

"If there are only [-] spirit stones, no matter what, I'm afraid it won't be enough."

"Just reduce the cost of operations a little bit."

Tangning frowned slightly, but said nothing. The two talked for a while before leaving.

Tangning went directly to the alchemy room. Since the shells on the branches and leaves of the mother of pearl clam had all fallen off, she didn't know if it could grow again.

Therefore, he put his main energy on alchemy, and only spent a few hours a day to irrigate the mother-of-pearl mussels, and spent most of the time in the alchemy room.

......................................................

Time flies, and several years have passed.

In the past few years, his alchemy skills have become more and more proficient, and the success rate of Yuanqi Pill has reached [-]% to [-]%. During this period, he has also tried dozens of times to refine Guben Pill.

But still failed to refine a complete elixir, it should be said that the difference is far.

Every pill has turned into a puddle of powder before inhaling the main medicine. In the eyes of outsiders, there is no difference between refining Yuanqi Pill and Guben Pill. They are both the same method to control the spirit fire.

In fact, it is far from it, and the delicate balance between them is difficult to understand with outsiders.

Whether it is the neutralization of the medicinal properties, the solubility of the pills, the control skills of the spiritual fire, all kinds of balance are far from comparable to the vitality pills, so he has not succeeded once in so many years.

..............................

On Xiuyuan Peak, in front of the elixir department's shop, a ray of light fell, revealing the figure of a handsome man. It was Tang Ning. He came here to buy and sell some elixir after he left the alchemy room.

Inside the wooden house, a round-faced man was sitting cross-legged. He was Duan Zhengtang, a newly promoted foundation-building cultivator of the Dan Medicine Department.

Sensing someone entering, he opened his eyes, stood up and said: "Senior brother Tang, you are here again, this time are you buying pills or selling pills?"

Over the years, Tang Ning has often come to this peak to sell the vitality pills he refined, so all the managers of the pill department know that he is such a number one person.

Tangning flicked her left hand and took out bottles of pills from the storage bag. There were forty bottles in total, "Junior Brother Duan, please settle the amount of spirit stones!"

Duan Zhengtang took those pill bottles, opened the bottle caps, inspected them carefully, nodded and said: "There are a total of [-] vitality pills, [-] spirit stones, Brother Tang, do you need anything else? "

The market price of Yuan Qi Pill is fifty spirit stones a piece, but if it is sold privately to shops, the market price is [-]% lower, so it is sold at forty spirit stones.

Tangning said, "No need, just give me the spirit stone!"

"Okay, please wait a moment." Duan Zhengtang ordered his disciples to guard the shop, then he left the room and disappeared.

About a quarter of an hour later, he returned here, took out a storage bag and said, "A total of [-] spirit stones."

Tangning took the storage bag, entered it with her spiritual sense, and checked it out.

Duan Zhengtang said with a smile: "Brother Tang has refined so many qi pills in less than half a year. This kind of skill can be regarded as perfect. I think you can just come to our medicine department. You will be the deacon sooner or later. of."

Tang Ning said, "An Gan's class is capable of making an ax for such a trivial skill. If money wasn't tight, he wouldn't have delayed his practice and ran off to refine alchemy."

With his current level, it is no problem to refine twenty or thirty vitality pills every day, but he needs to spend part of the time irrigating the mother-of-pearl mussels, and meditating to restore the exhausted spiritual power.

Therefore, after half a year, only more than a thousand pills were refined.

"Senior Brother Tang, why should you be too modest? You and I both know that without decades of hard work, you can't reach this level. Alchemy is not something that can be accomplished overnight."

After the two chatted for a while, Tangning left the room and came to the meeting hall.

When the rotating disciples in front of the hall saw him, they hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Go and invite Junior Brother Zhao to my residence for a talk."

"Yes." A disciple replied, flying away with his sword.

When Tang Ning returned to the cave, not long after, the storage bag on his waist trembled. He took out the disk and took the talisman into his hand. It turned out that Zhao Liheng had arrived.

Outside the mansion, Zhao Liheng saw the thick fog billowing and cleared a path, he flashed into the room, came to the room, Jishou said: "Senior brother Tang, why do you call me?"

"Liheng, sit down! In the past few years, our disciples have not been in the same mood! I wonder if you have noticed it?" Tangning said.

Because the Zongmen reduced the funds for the intelligence department and only distributed [-] spirit stones each year, resulting in a serious shortage of funds, Lu Guang also reduced the rewards and operational funds for each disciple, resulting in internal complaints within the department, and the work was only done without effort.

Zhao Liheng sat down and said: "Yes, I have heard about it a long time ago, especially the captains of the subordinate action teams, they are very dissatisfied."

Tang Ning said, "I said earlier that we need to reform the department's finances and clarify and plan the use of Fan's finances, but the time has not yet come. Now is almost the time. The next time we discuss matters, I will have a showdown with him. If he If you disagree, I will exercise the decision-making power of supervision and directly take over the finance of the department. Liheng, I hope you can support it when the time comes."

Zhao Liheng was slightly startled: "I don't know what plan Brother Tang has?"

"I made a financial regulation of the department. I will redistribute and plan the use of the department's funds. This will not damage the interests of others, except Lu Guang." Tangning flipped her left hand and took out a file Handed it to him: "Look at it!"

Zhao Liheng took the file and read it carefully, then pondered: "If we want to use the decision-making power, do we have enough votes?"

"There is no more suitable opportunity than this. Now everything is ready, just win over Xu Yuan."
