Xiang Liu and Zhong Hongye felt different in their hearts after hearing this. It even feels like deja vu... I think that when the man surnamed Shen proposed the "separation of investigation and punishment", and when he later made suggestions on the Sanyuan Sect, he made people feel so weird right now. Feel.
It's like saying, "I'm all thinking about you, thinking about you, and seeking benefits for you." But in the end, although the promised benefits were fulfilled, the person named Shen also received the benefits without falling behind at all, and even got more. many.
This is how Xiang Liu and Zhong Hongye feel now, even though they have to admit that Shen Hao's proposal is very tempting, and the benefits gained by Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect are tangible, even beyond their plans. .
But I still felt a little awkward.
According to what Shen said, Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect can directly participate in the signing of the employment agreement between the sect and Xuan Qingwei as a "bridge" and "backup". And Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect are the first parties to the agreement. The sect that fulfills the agreement with Xuanqing Guard is the second subject, and it needs the approval of Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect before it can participate.
In other words, Xuan Qingwei will retreat to the back and hand over all the initiative, but the initiative handed over needs to be executed within the framework drawn by Shen Haoxin.
For Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect, "separation of investigation and punishment" means that they can use Fenghong Villa as an excuse to deal with those disobedient sects, and even suppress those sects that may threaten their super sect status. Door. It belongs to the aspect of "coming with threats", which can quickly establish one's own deterrence in the sect circle without worrying about provoking backlash. After all, most of the blame can be placed on Fenghong Villa.
And now as long as Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect nod and agree to participate in this employment agreement, it means that in addition to having the ability and means to "use power" when facing the sect circle, they also have With the good benefits of “helping the weak”.
First- and second-rate sects need to be suppressed appropriately or restricted because they are too close to themselves.
It is necessary to win over and help the third-rate or inferior sects, because they are too far away from themselves.
This was the most ideal strategy in the minds of Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect. They had thought about it for thousands of years, but in the end, they found a possible path to realize it in the hands of Shen Hao, and even handed it to them on their own initiative.
To take or not to take?
As for the price, both Xiang Liu and Zhong Hongye knew it well. If they comply with Shen Hao's method, the price they need to pay will not be paid by Wanjuan Shushan or Mingshan Sect alone, but will be passed on to the entire sect circle, sacrificing the independence of the sect circle. conditional. Although this condition was hidden under a piece of agreement and used "business" as a cover, it still could not change the fact that the sect's independence was eroded.
The most direct change is that from now on, monks from lower-level sects will be able to pass through the threshold of Wanjuanshu Mountain and Mingshan Sect to work within the system of the Jingjiu Dynasty and earn high rewards, while the Jingjiu Dynasty will You can use part of the sect's power as your own power to a limited extent.
At that time, it will not only be those low-level sects that rely on the mineral veins of Fenghong Villa, but all sects that meet the Xuanqing Guard's screening conditions can participate. In turn, it was Xuan Qingwei's turn to pick. And Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect are like sieves.
In other words, as long as this hole is opened, at least the current predicament of Xuanqingwei can be greatly improved in a short period of time, and the chaos caused by evil spirits and evil monks in the entire Jingji Dynasty can also be solved. An obvious improvement.
Shen Hao finally had time to lean back on his chair, holding tea and drinking it slowly, leaving time for Xiang Liu and Zhong Hongye to think about it. His current cultivation level allowed him to clearly sense that the two people sitting opposite were communicating through voice transmission, but he could not detect the specific content of the other person's voice transmission.
After about a stick of incense, Xiang Liu and Zhong Hongye ended their discussion. They were no longer debating whether Shen Hao's proposal was positive or not, but they were confirming each other's understanding of the proposal, and then combing through it repeatedly hoping to find out all the possible hidden dangers in it, so that they could be more confident when reporting back. Can give some useful reference, rather than just a sounding board.
"Master Shen, I wonder if there are any restrictions on the cultivation level of the sect monks who will be hired in these agreements? Our idea is not to be too high."
Shen Hao put down his tea cup, nodded, and replied: "Of course, taking the Black Flag Camp as an example, it does not require monks whose cultivation level is higher than the God Gathering Realm. There is an urgent shortage of monks in the divine realm. These can be written into the agreement, and Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect will be responsible for checking. We can also save time and effort. At the same time, it can also solve the dilemma of lack of cultivation resources for many monks at the bottom of the sect."
Does the Xuanqing Guard not need monks from the Yuan Dan Realm or the Xuanhai Realm? of course not. But the Yuandan Realm has already been in the position of the main combat force among the first- and second-rate sects from the beginning. If we let this digging go unchecked, wouldn’t the sect be riddled with holes?
The Qi Refining Realm should not be too much in the sect circle, and the same is true for the God Gathering Realm.
With this provision in place, the scope of employment will basically be limited to those low-level sects at the bottom, and even third-rate sects can be excluded. Eliminate the concerns of Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect to the greatest extent.
Zhong Hongye and Xiang Liu heard the words and nodded, and then asked: "In addition, can the length of the agreement be adjusted? I think the current ten-year period is too long. Three years is definitely more suitable for us."
Shen Hao shook his head with a smile and explained: "Senior, ten years is actually not a long time. Even for monks in the Qi Refining Realm, ten years is only the time for them to advance to three or two small realms. Besides, most of them are talented. It is difficult to make progress within limitations.
Furthermore, after entering the Xuanqing Guard, there are quite a few battle formations that need to be adjusted. If the time is short, it will have a great impact on the overall combat effectiveness. "
Xiang Liu: "Mr. Shen, what we are considering is nothing else, but that if an agreement is signed for too long, it will benefit fewer people. Can Mr. Shen understand this? Therefore, ten years is definitely not enough. of."
Have you considered this? Shen Hao didn't notice this aspect. Indeed, as Xiang Liu said, once a ten-year agreement is signed, many people will lose a rotation opportunity.
However, it cannot be signed every three years. In that case, it would indeed be too short.
So Shen Hao considered it and said: "Three years is too short and ten years is too long, so let's make it five years."
The discussion did not go into details, but the general direction was agreed upon. But whether it can be done in the end is not up to Xiang Liu and Zhong Hongye. If they want to report their opinions back, they need to discuss and decide with the sect leader and the elders.
