Chapter 970 Negotiations
Jingyuan Pavilion, Pingling Mountains, inside the cave, Plateau entered from the outside, bowed and saluted: "Uncle Master."
"You're back, how are you? Have you finished everything?"
"Yes, the mountain protection formation has been re-deployed, the destroyed sound transmission formation has been repaired, and the spirit gathering formation and the elixir seeds in the herb garden have all been sown." Gao Yuan flipped his hands over and took out a file: "This is Here are all the details, please take a look at them, Uncle Master."
Tang Ning took the file and flipped through it for a while. After the Xuangan Valley spiritual veins were destroyed by the attack, not only the mountain protection formation was destroyed, but also the sound transmission array and the spirit gathering array inside were destroyed, including all the elixirs and herbs. Destroyed to varying degrees, the losses are difficult to measure.
You know, some of those elixirs and herbs have been planted for decades and are about to mature and yield a good harvest. However, at this time, they are thrown away in one pot, which is equivalent to wasting decades of hard work.
In the next few decades, there will no longer be mature purple smoke fruits and poppy poppies.
Xuangan Valley produces 10,000 pearls of purple smoke fruits and poppy poppies every year, and the market price is about 170 million spiritual stones.
And its maturity period is twenty-five years, which means that all 250,000 beads of medicinal herbs have been destroyed, and the loss alone is as high as billions of spiritual stones.
There is part of this that belongs to him. According to the sect's regulations, 10% of the medicinal herbs will be reserved for the team's expenses. From now on, he will never get this extra income for twenty-five years.
He had already reported this matter. Since it was an attack by a foreign enemy, it was a force majeure factor. Even though it caused such a huge loss, the superiors did not hold him responsible and sent people to rebuild Xuangan Valley. Those formations were all funded by the alliance. Dominant.
He left some people to cooperate with the disciples of the alliance to rebuild there. Gao Yuan was one of them. After working hard for nearly a year, everything was finally ready.
"Uncle Master, I heard that the Jingyuanting Netherworld Organization branch received a large number of reinforcements a few days ago. We have to be on guard if they are going to make any big move. Do you think there is something going on over there at Fengyan Mountain? Strengthen the defense force more, it has just been rebuilt, don't let it be destroyed again." Gao Yuan said.
Tangning put down the file and sighed slightly: "What can we do if we add more people? If they come prepared, even if there are god-transforming monks on duty, it won't be enough. If this kind of thing really happens, you can only admit that you are unlucky."
"Disciple heard that these reinforcements of Netherworld Sea monks came from Qinghai. It is said that all the Netherworld Sea Qinghai branch monks have evacuated and returned to Qingzhou. What do they mean? Are they going to abandon Qinghai and prepare to fight us in Qingzhou? ?”
Tangning shook his head. He really didn't know the Netherworld Sea organization's intention to move Qinghai and stationed in Donglai County. He had no idea about the future development of the situation. Will there be a big war between the Xuanmen, the aristocratic family, the Netherworld Sea, and the chamber of commerce in the future? The civil war, no one can say for sure now.
Recently, especially in the past year, the conflicts between the two sides have become more and more acute. Attacks on the resources and territories under their jurisdiction have become more and more frequent, and it is almost time to raise the banner and directly attack the opponent's base camp.
After Netherworld Sea and the Chamber of Commerce launched an attack on several resources under Taixuanzong's jurisdiction, Taixuanzong was not to be outdone and immediately launched a counterattack, encircling and suppressing the Fangshi under the Chamber of Commerce and the information exchange organized by Netherworld Sea.
As for the various large and small Xuanmen sects and cultivating families, the Netherworld Sea and the Chamber of Commerce are even more fiercely fighting.
The month before last, Zhu Lian, the leader of the Xingyue Sect who was stationed at Cangyue Ridge southwest of Jingyuan Pavilion, was killed when Fengyun Chamber of Commerce attacked Cangyue Ridge.
Nowadays, people everywhere are in panic. Even though Tangning is in the spiritual mine, she is always worried that some chamber of commerce forces or the Netherworld Sea Organization will launch an attack on the Pingling Mountain Spirit Mine.
But he had no choice but to secretly pray that this kind of misfortune would not happen to him.
This is the helplessness of a small person. If a slight disturbance in Donglai County falls on his head, it will be a mountain weighing ten thousand.
For the senior officials of Taixuan Sect, the turmoil that occurred in the past few years may be just a minor friction, but for people of Tangning's level, this is a life-or-death battle.
………
In the majestic and majestic hall of Cangming Sea and Zhuque Island, many men and women gathered together. Sitting on the main seat was a dignified middle-aged man, Zhou Muyun, the president of the Tianxia Chamber of Commerce.
"President, Senior Shangguan Chengyuan has arrived." A man came in from outside and bowed in salute.
"Please come quickly." Zhou Muyun said.
"Yes." The big man left in response. Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing Taixuanzong clothes, with a tiger body and wolf waist strode in. It was Shangguan Chengyuan, the master of Qingxuan Hall of Taixuanzong.
"Fellow Taoist Master Shangguan is here. If you are far away from us, please take a seat." Zhou Muyun stood up and bowed his head in salute.
Shangguan Chengyuan returned the salute, nodded to everyone present, and took his seat at the bottom of the table, the first one on the left.
Zhou Muyun smiled and said: "Thank you to Taoists from Taixuan Sect, Mirror Moon Sect, Jiang Family, Liu Family, Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, Fengyun Chamber of Commerce and Netherworld Sea Organization for taking the time out of their busy schedules to attend this meeting organized by our Chamber of Commerce."
"I heard that you have had a little friction recently, which has resulted in some unhappiness. Zhou is not presumptuous and invites you here. I hope that everyone can talk calmly and resolve this grudge."
"The following is just a solemn statement on behalf of our Chamber of Commerce. Our Chamber of Commerce has no intention of intervening in the internal affairs of all parties. It is only invited by others to provide a platform for peaceful negotiations. As for the outcome, our Chamber of Commerce will not interfere."
"Thank you Daoist Fellow Zhou for organizing this meeting so that I can meet with all of you." A middle-aged man with a tall stature, arms above his knees, and wearing Qiankun Chamber of Commerce clothing said below: "In fact, our Chamber of Commerce has long been
I want to have such an exchange. No matter what misunderstandings have occurred before, I hope this exchange can make us give up confrontation and turn conflicts into friendship."
Shangguan Chengyuan said calmly: "We also hope that the dispute can be stopped. Donglai County is the land we share. The endless turmoil will not bring any benefit to everyone except causing destruction."
Nether Sea Zheng Youlin nodded and said: "We have a consensus on this."
The man in Mirror Moon Sect said: "Friend Daoist Zheng, what does your organization's sudden withdrawal from Qinghai mean? Are you planning to give up this territory? If your organization is really determined, then we will take over."
"We have no objection to Guizong taking over the defense of Qinghai, but one thing must be stated in advance. If the Mubei demons attack Qingzhou in the future, Guizong will be the vanguard to resist the Mubei army. If Guizong agrees, of course we can
Qinghai will be given to you."
"Does your organization really think that without you, Qingzhou comrades would not be able to resist the Mubei demon attack?"
"I'm just discussing the matter. If your sect is willing to take on the important task of spearheading the fight against the Mubei demon in the future, Xingang can naturally be placed under your jurisdiction. If you are unable or unwilling to take it, please don't say anything. This is our internal decision.
There is no need to explain to anyone about personnel changes."
The man surnamed Jiang said: "I think members of your organization will never forget how much we paid when we attacked several Qinghai islands where Mubei was heavily defended."
"We have no intention of intervening in the internal affairs of your organization. However, Qinghai has a special location. It is the strategic hub of Mubei and Qingzhou. If it is because of your organization's factors that Qinghai, a strategic buffer area, was captured by Mubei demons without bloodshed, it will be so expensive.
Organizations will have to bear some responsibility for this."
Zheng Youlin said: "Fellow Taoists, please rest assured. In front of everyone today, Zheng expressed his position on behalf of the headquarters. The headquarters has a blood feud with the Mubei demon. As long as we are still stationed in Qinghai, we will never easily destroy this strategic buffer area."
Give them the land.”
The man surnamed Liu said: "In that case, I would also like to request the relevant personnel of your organization to withdraw from Qinghai immediately. I would like to remind fellow Taoists that the Mubei demon has noticed your organization's move to withdraw from Qinghai and has already taken action in Annan County."
"Don't bother fellow Taoists, we have our own arrangements. Today, despite your busy schedule, you have traveled hundreds of millions of miles to attend the meeting of the Taoist Pastoral Organization. It should not only be to intervene in our internal transfer matters!"
After Zheng Youlin finished speaking, Yuan Shouye said: "The previous conflict between our Chamber of Commerce and the Donglai County Xuanmen and aristocratic families, who is right and who is right, I no longer want to have useless discussions and details. Today, Taixuan Sect, Jingyue Sect,
Representatives of the Jiang family and the Liu family are here."
"Yuan has only one sentence to ask: Can all the previous misunderstandings and conflicts be wiped out after today? Let's turn our hostility into friendship."
"If fellow Taoists want to continue fighting, then our Chamber of Commerce can only accompany you to the end."
"Fellow Daoist Shangguan, Daoyou Jiang, your sect and your family are the pillars of Qingzhou Xuanmen and the aristocratic cultivating families. What do you think?"
Shangguan Chengyuan said: "If there was no sincerity in the peace talks, we would not have traveled hundreds of millions of miles to meet here."
The man surnamed Jiang said: "If this fight continues, the situation will further escalate, and the one who gets the advantage is just the Mubei Demon. Our coming here today has fully proved our sincerity in peace talks. I wonder if your chamber of commerce has this sincerity."
Before Yuan Shouye could speak, Zheng Youlin took the lead and said: "If the so-called sincerity of the two fellow Taoists is to ask the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce and the Qingzhou Donglai County Chamber of Commerce to sever commercial cooperation with our headquarters, I think there is no need to discuss this matter anymore.
Please ask the Mirror Moon Sect to take over Qinghai directly! The worst we can do is return to the Netherworld Sea."
Shangguan Chengyuan said: "We allow your organization to cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce, but we have two requirements."
Yuan Shouye said: "Fellow Taoist Shangguan, please tell me. If it is a reasonable request, we will naturally not refuse it."
Shangguan Chengyuan said: "First, you need to ensure that your cooperation will not affect our interests. For example, the business contract transaction we previously reached with your Chamber of Commerce cannot be terminated by your Chamber of Commerce just because of the materials provided by the Netherworld Sea Organization.
Buy our spiritual practice materials.”
"As for the energy group, while you provide it to the Netherworld Sea Organization, you cannot reduce our share."
"The Nether Sea Organization cannot disrupt the local market order. For example, you cannot interfere with the fixed navigation routes of merchant ships from various forces. And so on, we will send people to contact you for the specific details when the time comes. In short, everything
It must be carried out in accordance with the original plan.”
Yuan Shouye said: "There is no problem with this. All transactions will continue as usual. I can guarantee that the cooperation between our Chamber of Commerce and the Nether Sea Organization will not cause any trouble or loss to our Qingzhou comrades."
Zheng Youlin also nodded.
The man from the Jiang family said: "Second, your chamber of commerce and your organization need to stop your aggressive expansion of territory in Yanzhou."
Yuan Shouye said: "This is something that our Chamber of Commerce cannot accept. Our Chamber of Commerce's recent actions in Yanzhou are only against some local unruly local chambers of commerce and have not hindered the interests of Xuanmen and the aristocratic family. With all due respect, what you proposed is
The request is completely unreasonable and unreasonable."
Shangguan Chengyuan said: "Many of the local chambers of commerce in Yanzhou that your chamber of commerce is dealing with have cooperative relationships with us, such as the Xueyu Chamber of Commerce, the Xianshi Chamber of Commerce, etc., and they have sent requests to our sect for protection.
"
"According to what fellow Taoist Shangguan said, many of the local Taoist sects in Yanzhou who do not listen to your orders have a cooperative relationship with our chamber of commerce. If one day they request asylum from our chamber of commerce, your sect will not be able to do anything to it.
They took action."
"So, you will not agree to our request."
