Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 924
Tang Ning's figure flashed, and the knife was raised and lowered.

Several Foundation Establishment cultivators didn't have any power to fight back at all. In just a moment, five of them fell to the ground with their right arms, and only the cultivator named by him was left unharmed.

There was deathly silence in the hall, Yan Ming, Yang Qiushui, Xu Fan, Cheng Qian, Huang Qiansheng and several other monks who guarded the hall stood with their hands down.

The five men whose arms had been chopped off by him all held their right arms in pain and wailed slightly.

Only the one who confessed to Lin Quan fell on the ground, his whole body trembling.

"What's your name."

"Zhang Yan." The man trembled.

"Where are the two hundred and fifty pearls of elixir that Lin Quan stole?"

"Junior, I don't know, maybe, maybe it's in his storage bag, maybe it's in his room."

With a trick in Tangning's hand, she took the storage bag and checked it. There was no purple smoke fruit in it.

"Yang Qiushui, allocate [-] spirit stones to Zhang Yan from the financial funds."

"Yes."

"Juniors don't dare, juniors don't dare." Zhang Yan kowtowed repeatedly.

Tangning ignored him and went straight out of the hall, with everyone following behind him.

Outside the hall, a group of monks stood with their hands down. Although they didn't witness what happened inside, the door of the hall was wide open, and they heard all the movements inside. Everyone roughly understood what happened.

Seeing Tangning coming out from the inside, everyone lowered their heads and dared not look at her.

"Someone was greedy for two hundred and fifty purple smoke fruits. I hope this is the last time," Tangning said flatly.

The words disappeared and disappeared, leaving a group of people in shock, looking at each other in blank dismay.

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

At night, in front of the majestic cave, a flash of light came, and Huang Gansheng appeared. After a while, the dense fog cleared a passage, and he entered the inner room with a flash, came to the main room, and sat cross-legged on the futon. Tang Ning bowed and saluted, "Disciple pays respects to Master Uncle."

"sit down!"

"I don't dare. I came here to plead guilty to my uncle. As the person in charge of guarding the spiritual mine, I can't absolve myself of the responsibility for this kind of thing. After I go back, I can't feel at ease. Ashamed and ashamed, this disciple has a heavy trust, so I ask my uncle to punish me."

"It's none of your business, but you really should take good care of those people below. Fortunately, they found out in time this time. If they didn't find out, they won't just use two hundred and fifty pearls of elixir next time. If you don’t stop this trend, what will happen in the future.”

"Yes, this disciple must strictly discipline and discipline the personnel recruited by the Guard Hall in the future, and this kind of thing will never happen again."

"Have you found the [-] pearls and elixir?"

"Not yet. This disciple has already searched the rooms of those people, but found nothing. The disciple will continue to investigate."

Tangning nodded slightly, "Take it easy before going to the United Spirit Gathering Formation to practice! You should focus on training the members of the Guard Hall, and we will talk about the number of places in the practice formation next time we have a chance."

Hearing this, Huang Gansheng was slightly taken aback, his eyes flashed with unwillingness, and he nodded yes.

"Anything else?"

"No more, disciple farewell."

Tangning didn't respond and closed her eyes. Huang Gansheng turned around and left quietly.

……

For a period of time after this incident, no matter where Tang Ning went, the others would walk around, lest they avoid her, as if he was the king of Hades.

On this day, the sun was bright and the wind was clear. In the spacious and bright hall, Tang Ning entered from the outside. The tall and tall man inside smiled and stood up to check his head: "Junior Brother Tang, long time no see."

This man is none other than Xie Xuan.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two took their seats.

"Junior Brother Tang, I'm here this time for the things we discussed earlier. Do you have any questions?" Xie Xuan asked straight to the point.

"It's already ready, and I'm waiting for Brother Xie to receive it."

"That's good, I heard that this time the brigade has handed over supplies, and your team has a little problem?"

"It was because of my carelessness that I let Xiao Xiaozi take advantage of it and steal two hundred and fifty pearls of elixir."

"Hey, people's hearts are unpredictable, especially those of us stationed in the pavilion city. There are mixed people, so don't be too indulgent with them, otherwise they will think you are weak and bully, and you can do anything."

"Brother Xie said, let me take you to check the herbs!"

"No rush." ​​Xie Xuan said, "Junior Brother Tang, according to our previous agreement, your team will provide us with two thousand purple smoke fruits, poppies, clover, and heart fire mushrooms every year. The price is [-] spirit stones. Right!"

"Brother Xie, do you think there is anything wrong?"

"There is nothing wrong with it, but I would like to ask one more question, how do you plan to deal with the extra elixir from your team?"

"Brother Xie, do you have any suggestions?"

"In accordance with the rules we have set before, the price of the [-]-bead elixir remains unchanged, and the extra elixir will be given to us at [-]% of the market price. What does Junior Brother Tang think?"

Tangning pondered without saying a word. Originally, he was planning to sell the surplus elixir to private shops in need. Normally, they could fetch [-]% to [-]% of the price. Now that Xie Xuan proposed to buy it at [-]% price, he was naturally a little reluctant.

After weighing it for a while, he slowly said: "Since Brother Xie said so, let's do as you want!"

After all, Xie Xuan is Xie Minghua's confidant, although the price would definitely be much higher if it was sold to a private person, it might also make Xie Xuan unhappy.

If he fanned the flames and said a few bad things about Xie Minghua, it would definitely be bad for him.

Especially after the elixir was stolen, the higher-ups' impression of her would not be much better. At this time, it would be unwise to risk offending Xie Xuan to earn more spiritual stones, so Tangning chose compromised.

Xie Xuan got up and said, "Okay, let's go now! After checking the elixir, please ask Brother Tang to send someone to escort it."

"no problem."

The two got up and walked out.

"Actually! If you want me to say, Brother Tang, you can simply buy Brother Jiang's share in the alchemy hall, and you will be able to pay back in less than ten years. In the future, our brothers and sisters will work together, isn't it much better than this? ?”

"To be honest, thank you brother, I am now alone and penniless, not to mention tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones, even a few thousand can't be brought out."

"Isn't that simple? I'll guarantee you. I'll talk to Junior Brother Jiang and ask him to give you more deadlines. It's enough to pay you back in multiple installments. Tens of millions a year, within ten years Just pay it off, I believe he will give me this noodle."

"Thank you, brother, for your kindness. Let me consider this matter."

"When Junior Brother Tang is willing to take over, just say hello."

In the storage room, Tangning ordered the accompanying cultivators to carry the four stone boxes containing the elixir to the Yuanling boat and sailed out of Pingling Mountain.

.........

The stars are like brocades, the moon is hanging high, and a light curtain stands among the vast mountains. The Yuanling ship came from the southwest and stopped in front of it. Xie Xuan flipped his hand and the talisman disappeared into the room.

Soon, there was a gap in the light curtain, and several figures flashed out inside, and the light fell on the deck. The leader was a man with a hooked nose, followed by several people.

"Junior Brother Tang, let me introduce you. This is fellow Taoist Xue Yuan who is in charge of the Cangxiongling Alchemy Hall and is also a monk recruited by the headquarters." Xie Xuan introduced: "Xue Yuan, this is the master of the pavilion in the Jingyuan of our sect. It's Junior Brother Tangning."

"The junior has met the senior." Xue Yuan saluted.

The Yuan Ling boat slowly entered the inner room and came to a stone room.Tangning ordered everyone to transport the stone box to the inner room, and checked the quantity of the elixir together.

"Junior Brother Tang, let's stay here today, let's have a drink, Xue Yuan, take all the brothers down and treat them well." Xie Xuan said.

"Yes, fellow daoists, please." Xue Yuan responded.

Tangning waved her hand, and everyone rushed out.

The two came to a clean and elegant room, where a table of banquets had already been prepared, Xie Xuan flipped through his hands, took out a storage bag and handed it to him: "Junior Brother Tang, this is the two thousand dollars I prepared for you." Four million spirit stones, check it out, and I'll send someone to send the rest later."

Tang Ning took the storage bag and said some polite words. The two sides exchanged cups and chatted about North and South. The guests and hosts enjoyed a feast until late at night.

They rested here for a night, and the next day, Tangning led everyone back to the Pingling Mountain Spirit Mine.

…………

In the meeting hall, everyone in the fifth team gathered together, discussing in whispers.

Not long after, Tangning came in from the outside, took her seat, looked around for a week and said, "Everyone is here, let's start! Yang Qiushui, let me tell you about the situation of your financial hall this year. There are no outsiders here. Forget about the set of financial statements on the file, let’s tell the truth! How much is the total income and expenditure, and where is each expenditure?"

"Yes." Yang Qiushui replied: "Uncle Master, this year the team received a total of [-] million funds, and the expenditure was [-] million, an overspend of [-]."

"Among them, the salary expenditure for recruiting personnel is [-] million, the daily consumption of formations in Pingling Mountain, Fengyan Mountain, and Xuangan Valley is [-] million, and the maintenance and operation of the spiritual weapon world eye is [-]. [-], the subsidy share for the miners of the Spirit Mine is [-] million, and the other ministries' expenses are [-] million."

Tang Ning nodded slightly. This fund was handed over by Jiang Xinquan when he was in office. The source of the [-] million funding is mainly divided into three parts.

One is the [-] million spirit stones given by the sect, the second is the five million spirit stone dividends from Pingyang Valley and Yueya Peak, and the third is the elixir that was privately sold to Xie Xuan. It is the partner of Alchemy Palace, so the price is very low, and only millions of spirit stones are given out.

The three add up to a total of [-] million spirit stones. Jiang Xinquan took [-]% of it himself, and the remaining [-] million was given to Yang Qiushui as the team's expenses.
