Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In a blink of an eye, it was already the end of the year. In front of the Finance Hall, Tang Ning escaped from the light and walked straight into the inner room. A disciple led him to a stone room on the second floor.

"Senior Chao, juniors are here to receive this year's funds and salary for the headquarters." Tang Ning saluted the middle-aged man who was sitting upright. This man was Chao Qisheng, the deputy captain of the Fourth Regiment.

The man handed a file from under the desk, and Tang Ning signed it and handed it back to him.

"Take him there!" Chao Qisheng waved his hand.

"Fellow Taoist Tang, please come with me."

The two of them left the hall, boarded the Xuanling Ship of the Fourth Brigade outside the door, and arrived at the Material Storage Hall. Tang Ning directed everyone in the Fourth Brigade to carry the stone boxes one by one to the deck of the warship. After working for an hour, the Xuanling Ship Set sail and arrived at the meeting hall of the fourth brigade.

Not long after, the inspector and deputy captain of the fourth brigade arrived one after another. The three of them discussed for a while, opened several of the stone boxes, and put the spiritual stones inside into storage bags.

In addition to the salaries of each monk, the annual budget for the brigade also includes additional subsidies for spiritual stones, elixirs and other items.

The three of them divided the extra funds according to the old rules of 32122. The captain got 30%, the supervisor got 20%, the deputy captain got 100%, the other stewards got 20%, and the other 20% was distributed as team funds. To each team.

The entire brigade's additional subsidy fund does not exceed 100 million. As the captain, Tangning can get 30 million. There are also hundreds of bottles of elixirs distributed, most of which are third-level Huang Yuan Dan, Yuanyang Dan, and Qing Ling Dan.

Naturally, these pills were looked down upon by a few people, so they were kept on the warship as rewards.

………………

A few months later, on this day, Tang Ning was practicing meditation with her eyes closed indoors, when footsteps sounded outside, and then there was a knock on the door.

He opened his eyes and opened the door to the room. There was a man standing outside the room.

"Fellow Taoist Tang, Senior Shi invites you to come to his residence to have a chat."

"Okay." Tang Ning was confused. She didn't know why Shi Shou suddenly wanted to find her. She nodded in agreement and then jumped into the sky. After a while, she arrived at his cave.

The column stipulates that only monks with the rank of regimental steward or above can open caves here alone, and others can only live in rooms built by the troops themselves.

"Disciple pays homage to Master." Tang Ning came to the main room and bowed to him.

"I came to you today because I have something to tell you. I will go to Donglai County for a visit recently. If you have nothing else important to do, just come with me!" Shi Shou went straight to the scene without any polite greetings. theme.

"Uncle Master wants to bring his disciples to Donglai County? May I ask why?" Tang Ning had a bad feeling in her heart. Shi Shou suddenly offered to take him to Donglai County. What could he do for it? It couldn't be... …

"Didn't I tell you last time? Uncle Su and I were in the same corps. When he was the director, I was the corps manager. This time I returned to Donglai County to pay a visit to him. You are his My brother-in-law, I just thought we could go and forget it together. Anyway, there’s nothing important in our headquarters right now.”

Sure enough, it was for this matter. No wonder Shi Shou had been very close to him since he came back from Yuanxian County last year. I think he had already been thinking about it at that time. He was really afraid of what would happen.

Su Yuanhua has been promoted to the deputy captain of the column directly under the Fourth Army. This time the army will replenish and adjust personnel positions on a large scale. As Shi Shou, he must have received the news a long time ago, and he was originally the inspector of the unit directly under the column. I thought If we want to take advantage of this adjustment to take another step forward, we must try our best to win Su Yuanhua's support.

Tang Ning secretly guessed that Shi Shou and Su Yuanhua must not be that close, otherwise there would be no need for him to drag her along for a visit.

The two of them once served in the same regiment. If they were close, there would be no need for me at all. Even if I, a Nascent Soul cultivator, had some relationship with Su Yuanhua, what could I decide?

How could Su Yuanhua look at an appointment at their level differently because of the husband-in-law relationship of a junior sister?

It can be deduced from this that Shi Shou and Su Yuanhua are not close to each other, but may be somewhat antagonistic. Pulling him in is just a stepping stone to test their attitude.

But he must have never imagined that in Su Yuanhua's eyes, his so-called brother-in-law was not as good as an ordinary disciple of the sect. Using him as a stepping stone would only be counterproductive in the end.

"What's wrong? Do you have other important matters?" Seeing his silence, Shi Shou asked with a frown.

"Oh! No, I am separated from my wife by a world. When my uncle talked about his wife and brother, I suddenly thought of her. I wonder when my uncle will set off. I will go back and prepare." Tangning lied casually. Naturally, he will not tell the truth and has no reason to refuse. He can only agree.

"We will set off in three days. I have already booked the ferry tickets."

"Disciple understands. If uncle has no other instructions, I will leave first."

"Go! Hand over the affairs of the Fourth Brigade."

"Yes." Tangning responded.

……………

In Donglai County City, where the headquarters of the Fourth Army of Qingwu Camp is located, in front of the majestic and majestic cave, two escaping lights shot down, revealing the figures of two people. It was Tang Ning and Shi who had rushed from Qianyuan City. life.

Not long after, a man walked out and welcomed the two into the inner room.

In the spacious and bright living room, Su Yuanhua walked in slowly. Shi Shou quickly stood up and saluted: "Disciple has met Master Uncle Su."

"You're welcome, take a seat!" Su Yuanhua took his seat above.

Shi Shou turned over his hands, took out a storage bag, and handed it to him with both hands: "This is a little thought from my disciple. I hope Master Su will not dislike it."

Su Yuanhua put the storage bag aside casually: "Although the war has entered a stalemate stage, we can't let our guard down too much. After you come to the headquarters to do something this time, you should go back as soon as possible! If the war suddenly breaks out again, you, the captain, will If time is not in the team, doesn’t it give people an excuse to criticize?”

"Uncle Master is very concerned, and the disciples think the same way, so when I arrived at the headquarters, I hurried over to visit Master Uncle, stayed here for a few days, and then returned to Qianyuan City."

Su Yuanhua said: "Now the entire Qingzhou and Yanzhou are in a melee. Rebels are everywhere. The situation is very unclear. The outcome is not yet known. Behind these rebellions are not only the local Xuanmen and aristocratic families, but also the secret fueling of larger sects. and financial support.”

"They hope to disrupt Qingzhou. If the rebels in Beihai, Le'an, and Pingyuan counties gain a foothold, then they can naturally get involved in Qingzhou, infiltrate their forces, and carve up Qingzhou's resources just like Yanzhou."

"This battle is very important. If we lose Qingzhou, our sect will also lose the last base of the state and county."

"If nothing else, we people will have no use for us in the first place. If Donglai County falls into the hands of the rebels, why are there still troops stationed in Donglai County? Without Qingwu Camp, the sect will not have you. It’s my place.”

"The responsibility of resisting the rebels lies entirely on you, so I hope you can focus all your energy on fighting the rebels."

Shi Shou said: "Disciple is also very worried about this. If it were not for the recruitment and adjustment of personnel positions in the headquarters in the near future, we would not be so anxious to come all the way from Qianyuan City. Others don't know, but you know that over the years, The disciples have always worked hard to complete the various tasks assigned by the sect and the headquarters, and have never complained or been dissatisfied. "

"There have been two or three opportunities to adjust my position before, but I missed it. It is not because I am bragging. In terms of qualifications, I don't think there is anyone older than my disciple in this department. I heard that Senior Brother Wen of the Third Regiment was unfortunately killed, and his position is vacant. , I wonder if disciples have this opportunity?”

Su Yuanhua said: "Shi Shou, I understand your situation. In terms of qualifications and abilities, you are certainly qualified, but you are also very clear about the sect's personnel appointment and removal procedures. It cannot be decided by just one or two people. Let me tell you Good news! This time the army’s large-scale job adjustment has been decided, and you have an advantage in promoting frontline disciples.”
