The reason why Tang Ning listens to his music every time is because he can feel the infinite sadness in his music. But he couldn't feel it today, so he asked questions.

"The player has no intention of playing, but the listener has intention. The music of the piano remains unchanged. The so-called sadness comes spontaneously from the listener. It must be that the predecessor has recently encountered a happy event or a happy event is approaching, so there is no feeling of sadness."

"That's the case, but I didn't know." Tang Ning said, waving her hand to make him retreat.

"Fellow Taoist Tang likes this girl's piano music, so he gives her to fellow Taoist Taoist. How about listening to the music when you are upset?" Dou Wencai said.

Tang Ning waved her hand and said with a smile: "This female voice is said to be a masterpiece. How could Tang be loved by others? Besides, I have always been alone. If I hear this music every day, I might not have the heart to practice."

Naturally, he would not accept such a gift. Wouldn't he be asking for trouble by placing a "nail" from the Dou family next to him? And he has so many secrets, such as the little white snake, the fairy mother-of-pearl clam, the green aura, etc., how can he let this happen?

Others know.

The few of them exchanged polite greetings, and after a few rounds of drinking, Dou Bolun brought up the matter of Dou Chong again.

Tangning had known that he would talk about this matter, so she said: "The limelight is booming now. It will take a few years for your nephew's matter to be out of the limelight, and others will almost forget about it. Then think of a way to find an excuse to put it aside."

I will send it back to your Dou family. You must also understand my difficulties."

Dou Wencai said: "Yes, we know this. Taoist friend Tang intervened and helped my Dou family a lot. We are very grateful. This matter should not be mentioned again, but there is still a high-ranking mother in Dou Chong's family. When she learned that Dou Chong was

He was imprisoned and cried non-stop day and night. The affair between Wuniao and Wuniao is really pitiful. Can Taoist Fellow Tang allow him to go home and visit his mother once, and then return him to the cell."

Tang Ning said: "It's not that I'm a stone-hearted person. Dou Chong was imprisoned. It's because the Supervisory Department convicted him and the intelligence station only enforced it. If I let him go home privately and was reported, it might be difficult to explain. I think he has a high-ranking mother. Look."

For the sake of Fellow Daoist Dou, I will make an exception and allow his mother to come to the information station to visit Dou Chong."

Dou Bolun wanted to say more, but Dou Wencai was the first to say: "In this case, I will thank fellow Taoist Tang for Dou Chonggaotang."

The two of them picked up their wine glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

Several people were pushing cups and changing cups, and Jiang Youzhi said: "Junior brother Tang, this time Taoist friend Dou Wencai invites you to come to this attic for a banquet. In addition to the matter about Dou Chong that we just talked about, there is actually another important matter to discuss with you."

"Oh? I don't know what's going on? Please speak up. As long as it doesn't violate the sect's laws, Tang will do his best."

"Don't worry, this matter definitely does not violate the sect's laws. Junior Brother Tang knows that Wangxichuan is one of the Dou family's properties. Do you know how much profit it makes in a year?"

Tang Ning didn't know why he suddenly asked about this matter, and she was secretly wary in her heart. She kept a calm expression on her face and said with a smile, "With these three skills of Qin and Chuan, I am sure that I will make a lot of money every day."

"Just from this Wangxichuan industry, we can earn nearly 100,000 spiritual stones every year."

"Oh? There are so many?" Tangning was slightly shocked. What is the concept of one hundred thousand spirit stones? The spiritual stone reserve of a branch in Jiangdong is only 1.4 million. The Dou family only relied on the income from a loft in Wangxichuan to accumulate a fortune.

More than ten years can be compared to the financial resources of a sect, but to a foundation-building monk, more than ten years is really nothing.

"Junior brother Tang, I'm afraid you don't know! Wangxichuan's unique spirit wine and female cultivator furnace cauldron is a unique feature of Chu State. There is no semicolon other than this. Looking at Xingang, there is no such industry. Many people are attracted by it.

Came thousands of miles away. In addition to casual cultivators from Qinchuan who often come here to have fun, young masters from aristocratic families from Jiangdong, South and North China and even monks from Nether Valley Fang City occasionally come here."

"What do Senior Brother Jiang and Fellow Daoist Dou mean?"

Dou Wencai said: "Although the revenue of this pavilion is objective, the safety is not guaranteed. People often make troubles. In addition, Yan Yu and others have low cultivation level, and they can't stop it. I would like to ask fellow Taoist Tang to be the steward of this place, and I will pay you 10,000 spiritual stones every year.

,I don’t know what it’s like to be friendly?”

Ten thousand spirit stones per year is not a small amount. With Tang Ning's salary, five hundred spirit stones per month, which is only six thousand spirit stones per year. The salary of the steward in one year is comparable to two years' salary. It is not a temptation.

Not big.

Tang Ning muttered: "This matter may be inappropriate. Firstly, Tang came to Qinchuan just to investigate Dou Xiao's matter and to rectify the intelligence stations. He will have to return to the sect sooner or later in a year and a half at most. How can he serve as the steward of your cabinet?"

?”

"Both of them may have limited abilities. With the ability of the Dou family and its prestige in Qinchuan, there are three foundation-building monks in one sect, and Taoist friend Dou Wencai is in the middle stage of foundation-building. Why do I need to serve you? If even the Dou family

The troubles that can’t be solved by me will be even less solved by me now.”

"Third, I know nothing about your cabinet's affairs, and I don't know much about the people of Qinchuan. What I can do is really limited, and I really can't take on the responsibility of managing your cabinet."

Dou Wencai said: "Why do you need to belittle yourself, Taoist friend of the Tang Dynasty? My Taoist friend has surpassed all the others in the Guizong competition, ranking among the top three, and his prestige is famous in the Chu country. With his wonderful magic and magical powers, there are few opponents in Xingang at the same level. How can it be me?"

Wait for comparison?”

"Although I am a monk in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, I have only practiced for a few more years than my Taoist friend, and I have taken advantage of my age. However, my Taoist friend is in his prime, and my future will be limitless. As for what you said in a year and a half,

Returning to the sect and not knowing the local area of ​​Qinchuan and other matters do not conflict with serving as the steward of the attic. Fellow Taoist can put his name here."

"In fact, my invitation to Taoist fellow Taoist to be the steward of the attic is just a big banner. How can I really allow fellow Taoist to condescend to come here to sit in charge! Fellow Taoist only needs to use the title of steward. There are really troublemakers. Looking at Taoist

I think I will have a lot of worries about my friend's name and my relationship with the Yizong after my death."

Tang Ning finally understood that this was a disguised form of bribing herself! But what was their purpose in doing this? Could it be that they really wanted to tie herself to his boat. He already had a calculation in his mind and pretended to be worried on his face.

He looked serious: "This seems inappropriate!"

Jiang Youzhi said: "It doesn't violate the sect's rules, and it's within the scope of Junior Brother Tang's ability. What's wrong with it?"

Tang Ning asked back: "Senior Brother Jiang is also a sect representative and the person in charge of Qinchuan. He has stayed in Qinchuan for a long time and is more familiar with Qinchuan affairs than me. Isn't this manager's position more suitable than mine?"

Jiang Youzhi laughed: "Junior brother Tang, I am only telling you this. Don't tell anyone else. I have a share in the Dou family's many properties, so how can I use myself!"

"

"I see, let me consider this matter!"

Dou Wencai said: "I hope that the position of steward of Xichuan will be vacant and it will be opened only for Taoist friends Tang. I, the Dou family, sincerely hope that Taoist friends Tang will not be dissatisfied with the low salary due to the low position."

"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Dou. Ten thousand spirit stones are enough to cover my two-year salary in the sect. However, this matter must be considered carefully."

"Dou knows." Everyone had a drink, and Tang Ning got tipsy and left.

Seeing him walking away and disappearing, Dou Bolun squinted at Dou Wencai and said, "Wencai, although you are the head of the Dou family, you can invite fellow Taoist Tang to be the steward of Wangxichuan. Do you want to discuss it with Bingzhi? After all,

They also have a share of this property, and ten thousand spiritual stones per year is not a small amount."

Dou Wencai smiled and said: "Yes, I didn't discuss this matter with you two before, so it was a bit hasty to propose it rashly. However, fellow Taoist Tang has contributed a lot to Dou Xiao's matter. If he hadn't contributed a lot to dou Xiao's matter, it would have been difficult for Dou Xiao's matter to be resolved. I I thought that our Dou family should express something, so I proposed to ask him to serve as the steward of Wangxichuan. Moreover, Dou Chong is still in his hands, so I am also paving the way to take Dou Chong back as soon as possible."

"Although he said that he would return to our Dou family after a few years of calm, but as you just heard, he may return to Qian Yizong in less than a year and a half. Who can say for sure what will happen in a few years? Treat him Once we become the manager of Wangxichuan, we will all be business partners. Won't the Dou Chong matter be easily solved? If you don't agree with this matter, forget it, since he hasn't agreed yet anyway."

Dou Bolun said: "I don't have any objections. The matter started with our eldest brother, what can I say? But Bingzhi may not agree to it."

"I will discuss it with Bingzhi. He is generally knowledgeable and will not object if I think about it."

Tang Ning returned to the wooden house and immediately wrote a memorial. The next day, she went to the Eastern Intelligence Station and gave it to Luo Yuan, ordering him to submit it to the sect in the form of a secret memorial.

In the following days, Dou Wencai and others frequently invited him to banquets, and repeatedly asked him to serve as the nominal steward of Wangxichuan. This happened three times, and Tang Ning finally nodded in agreement.

Dou Wencai got a document in a serious manner, and Tang Ning cooperated very much to sign and stamp it.

On the same day, Dou Wencai invited him to have a banquet at the Dou family's residence, and immediately presented him with ten thousand spiritual stones. During the banquet, the guests and hosts had a great time, and it was not until late at night that Tang Ning left drunkenly.

"Is it possible to implement the second step now?" Dou Yanyu said as he watched the light disappear.

Dou Wencai shook his head: "It's not yet time, acting in a hurry will only lead to misfortune. The second step is the most critical step in the whole plan. If you don't do it right, you may steal the chicken but lose the rice. Then not only will you not be able to Pulling him aboard our ship will expose ourselves. We must have important information about him before we can take the second step. Just relying on some current interest exchanges and those few recording notes cannot completely control him."

"But he refuses to hand over Dou Chong to us. Do we really have to wait a few years? Isn't it too slow? What will happen when he returns to the sect?"
