Chapter 1117 The Dark Forbidden Land
After staying in the cave for a while, Xu Yi returned to the Ming Hall. Manager Fang had already arrived and was cooking fragrant tea. The smoke was curling up and the aroma was pleasant.
Xu Yixing came closer and sat down, picked up the tea, drank a full cup, the fragrance danced between his lips and teeth, and praised, "Old Fang, you are very capable, tell me what you want to do with me."
Manager Fang said, "Two things. One is to report on the power of our current No. 1 sect in the world..."
Xu Yi waved his hand, "You should talk about the second thing. You are in charge of this matter. I feel relieved."
In Xu Yi's view, the power of the so-called No. 1 sect in the world is nothing more than the number of people in the sect, the number of soul-sensing experts, which sects it has merged with, and how many cities it has absorbed.
For him, it doesn't mean much. At least so far, he hasn't realized the benefits of being the leader of a large sect. It's just that he has a bunch of younger brothers under his command, so he doesn't have to do it himself when bullying others.
Manager Fang said, "You really have to listen. If you don't listen to the first thing, the second thing will be useless."
"Okay, then I'll listen."
Xu Yi became interested.
Manager Fang said, "Now, under our No. 1 sect in the world, there are 308 strong people in the middle stage of soul sensing, and 1,400 strong people in the late stage of liquid condensation..."
"Wait, wait, how many people are there?"
Xu Yi suddenly said, "The number one sect in the world now has nearly two thousand people?"
Manager Fang had a smile on his face, "Doesn't this count the peripheral personnel below the late stage of liquid condensation?"
"How can we support so many people? I remember that the batch of spirit stones I allocated to Old Zhao cannot support so many people. In addition, isn't it said that the sect has a quota for recruiting people?"
Xu Yi was a little confused.
Manager Fang said, "Our income comes from two sources. On the one hand, it is the three first-level sects that joined us, each bringing a small city, which greatly increased the tax revenue. On the other hand, after you were promoted to the envoy, The congratulatory gifts sent by various sects, and relying on these incomes, the situation was temporarily under control. The accounts are recorded in detail, and I have to report to you several times, but you have no time to listen. "
"As for the restrictions on the number of people you mentioned for the sect to recruit, this is only for ordinary sects. Now we are the number one sect in the world. How can we still be ordinary sects? You, the leader, has been promoted to a second-level star official. We are the number one sect in the world. You have long since voluntarily broken away from the government's restrictions on ordinary sects. In other words, the number one sect in the world now is your private power. The government will no longer interfere, and there will be no more trial battles. As long as we pay the Shantou and There is no other restriction than the city’s stipulated taxes.”
Xu Yi didn't expect that being promoted to a star official would have such additional benefits. He smiled and said, "If these sects join us, they may not be able to survive and are afraid of the trial."
Manager Fang showed his thumbs up and said, "Master's opinion, that's exactly what happened. However, when people posted this, they were sincere. Even the military order was cancelled, but the city was annexed. However, this is normal nowadays. "
"Tell me what's going on with the various sects sending congratulatory gifts?"
Xu Yi had to pay attention to this. As the first envoy of the Department of Discipline Inspection, he was very sensitive to these apparent transfers of interests, and there was no way he could be insensitive. After all, there were too many eyes staring at him.
Manager Fang stretched out his hand to share a cup of tea for him, "Master, don't worry too much about this. This is the proper etiquette and procedure. The official can't help it, and no one will use this to find fault with you. This will cause public outrage. , Besides, every star official who takes office will have such an experience, and he will never be caught. Besides, the amount is not big. There are hundreds of sects, and it is less than 30,000 spiritual stones."
"so much?"
Xu Yi was startled. He knew that the salaries of star officials were not high, so how could the extra money be so exaggerated?
Manager Fang smiled and said, "Don't think that every star official has this kind of treatment. You are the envoy in charge of the first capital, General Huaixi Fengxian. Counting it all, the Fengxian of various sects are also under your rectification." It's right for them to offer you sacrifices. When the nearby star officials take office, there will never be so many sects coming to congratulate him, and there will never be such rich congratulatory gifts."
Xu Yi raised his glass and said, "Come, Lao Fang, let me toast you. I haven't worried much about this sect all this time. With the current situation, you and Lao Zhao deserve the most credit. Come, have tea instead of wine." , done.”
The two raised their glasses and drank to each other. Chief Fang said, "This is all within my duties. Who told me that I am the deputy military advisor of the best sect in the world? To be honest, I can work with you more vigorously than anyone else in the world." There are so many. Thousands of people under his control, what a power it is, Fang knows what it’s like to be a man above others today, it’s really thanks to the master’s blessing.”
Xu Yi waved his hand, "I don't have time to listen to flattery. If you have anything serious, tell me immediately."
Manager Fang said, "Chengcheng, I'm serious. There is an urgent matter right now that I really need to report to you. That is the issue of recruiting the most sincere-level people again. The first batch of most sincere-level people only included Zhao Wuliang and others. In the past, our people It is small and easy to manage, and ten of the most sincere level is enough for us. Now, including the peripheral disciples, there are thousands of people under the sect, and ten of the most sincere level is not enough."
Xu Yi said, "Oh, the key is that someone must be willing to enter this cage. Why do you think so? There are already people willing to join the Sincerity Level."
Manager Fang said, "There is no sign of willingness, it is clearly a mad rush. Do you still think that the number one sect in the world today is still the number one sect in the world in the past? Let's not talk about others. Take Zhao Wuliang as an example. A year ago, he was the best sect in the world. What kind of person? That was a down-and-out person at the bottom who couldn't even collect spiritual stones for cultivation. What kind of person is he now? He's just the third person under you and the deputy head. There are examples like this before, how many people do you think there are? I want to be the second Zhao Wuliang. Even if I can’t be the second Zhao Wuliang, becoming my trusted general of the No. 1 sect in the world is still the best choice.”
Xu Yi said in one word, "Okay, this matter is up to you. It depends not only on your cultivation, but also on your character. It's better to be deficient than excessive. Once you've made your choice, report it to me. I'll take a look. If it's suitable, I'll accept it." It’s time to talk about the sect. It’s time to talk about the second thing.”
Director Fang said, "The second thing is that the triennial Dark Forbidden Land is about to open. We need to accumulate strength as soon as possible. With our current strength..."
Xu Yi knew that Director Fang was about to speak at length again, so he quickly stopped and said, "You should get to the point. Tell me what the Forbidden Land of Darkness is first."
Manager Fang was startled, and his heart suddenly moved. An idea popped up in his mind, but he felt it was unreasonable, so he suppressed it and explained, "I can't explain exactly what this dark forbidden place is. It's just that it's all year round." It is shrouded in strange mist, cannot be detected by senses, and is extremely dangerous. It has been a forbidden area for many years. Therefore, it is called the Dark Forbidden Area."
