Chapter 276 Emei forced the palace to cancel the seal, and there was another conspiracy in the coope

Jiang You walked around the people who had returned to the ground and walked into the main hall, where he saw an old man with a white beard sitting upright.

This old man is thin, wearing a plain gray cloth. He is only about 1.65 meters tall. Compared with Jiang You, he looks even shorter. His gray beard hangs down to his chest. His face does not look old at all, with a smooth and rosy face. They are like babies, but if you look at each other, you can see the vicissitudes of time in those bright eyes.

It is hard to imagine that the powerful voice and the domineering sword intent just now came from the hands of this old man.

There were two old men, a man and a woman, sitting on both sides. They had closed their eyes to rest. It seemed that they were upset when they saw the disciples kneeling at the door, so they simply turned their eyes away. At this time, after Jiang You came in, they also opened their eyes. Their eyes were much sharper than the old man's. They were cast on Jiang You like swords, making his skin instinctively tighten.

These two should be the great elders of the inner sect, and the old woman among them should be Gong Jianqiu's master.

After Jiang You came in, he was in the lower position. The two great elders remained silent. Only the head of the Emei Sect talked to Jiang You.

"I, Gu Zhengfeng, am the current head of the Emei Sect. I have met Young Master Yama!"

"After studying at the end of my studies, I went to the Yangtze River to travel and met the seniors!"

At this time, the top management of major organizations is almost controlled by the elderly. It can be said to be gerontocracy, that is, it is only in emerging organizations such as the Yama and Progressive Association that young senior leaders appear.

One of the reasons why this happened is that the old man had accumulated a lot of accumulation before the spiritual energy was revived. After the spiritual energy was revived, his cultivation level increased rapidly. At this time, in this world, one step was fast. , step by step, it will be difficult for young people to catch up.

The second is that all famous sects are inherited in an orderly manner. People who have been promoted through seniority can obtain more cultivation resources than others through the operation of power, and their cultivation speed will reach a higher level.

However, this situation is changing, because there will always be a few monsters among young people who come from behind and surpass their predecessors in cultivation. After gaining a certain right to speak, the ideas of young people will always be different from those of the older generation. , at this time, various contradictions will arise.

The Emei Sect was in this situation at this time, and it was his own disciples who took the lead in forcing Gu Zhengfeng to cancel the mountain closure.

Among them, the Emei sect, isn't it a microcosm of Shangjing? It's just that the ingredients in Shangjing are more complicated.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that when a distinguished guest came to visit, something like forced harem would happen in the family. It's really unfortunate for the master. I also ask Young Master Jiang to cover up this matter for Emei in the future."

"It's natural. I just don't know why such a fight happened?"

Although Jiang You had already guessed from Gong Jianqiu that it was about the mountain closure, it was still just a guess. Only if he said it personally from the Emei Master's door would it count.

Gu Zhengfeng said simply and straightforwardly: "It's nothing more than the closure of Mount Emei that I made. They want me to cancel the closure of Mount Emei and let the disciples of Emei come down the mountain to help the world. Master Jiang, if this happened in Yama, what would you do? Deal with it?"

Facing Gu Zhengfeng's inquiry, Jiang You did not speak immediately, and quickly thought about the old man's intention in saying this.

It is extremely taboo for outsiders to interfere in other people's family affairs. Everyone present is aware of this. But even so, Gu Zhengfeng still asked the question, which shows that his intention is not Jiang You's specific solution. .

This kind of thing is simply impossible to happen in Yama. The reason why such things as forcing the palace can appear shows that the leader's control over the organization is beginning to show signs of losing control. And Yama is in a stage of rapid development. The three elders and fifth masters The interests are currently highly consistent, and Jiang You and Lu Xiaoxiao, as the fifth master's grandsons, even if they have differences, they discuss them behind closed doors and have the same external stance. It can be said that the fifth master's rights are The control is extremely strict. People who are not recognized by themselves cannot get involved in the power of Yama. This is because Jiang You has been secretly tested by the fifth master, and Lu Xiaoxiao is still only a hall master at the headquarters.

The occurrence of this incident in Emei shows that there is a problem in its power structure. Could it be that Emei closed the mountain and turned into an internal struggle after being unable to obtain resources from the outside?

But the person taking the lead was Gu Zhengfeng's direct disciple. With this status, could it be that Gu Zhengfeng used his disciples to test the true attitude of the two great elders? Did you use one trick to lure the snake out of its hole?

But that's not right. If that's the case, why would Gu Zhengfeng ask himself this question? He thought what I said would be helpful to his current situation.

Emei is willing to cooperate with Yama. If it cooperates with Yama, the first basic premise is that Emei must first cancel the mountain closure.

Judging from this, Gu Zhengfeng actually has the intention to cancel the mountain closure. The question now is how to cancel it, how to cancel it, and to what extent a person can accept it.

As for the mountain closure, except for Emei, Qingcheng, and Qingyang Palace, they all adopted the same policy, which shows that it is the consensus of the Shu organization. There must be a strong external reason that caused them to close the mountain. The current situation is It was only after Gu Zhengfeng's attitude changed that the farce of forcing him into the palace occurred, and the time was stuck just when he was about to leave Emei.

Jiang You's brain was running rapidly, and he made inferences based on the known information in a blink of an eye.

This forced intercourse was a scene directed and performed by Gu Zhengfeng!

As the head of Emei still needs to go through so much trouble to come up with this, the only answer is the resistance from the two elders.

Not only did the two elders not support the lifting of the mountain closure, but they were the main force behind the closure!

The Fifth Master asked Jiang You to participate in the game between himself and the high-level executives of the Righteous Alliance. He would review the game for him later and explain it to him patiently. At this time, he finally saw results.

If it were the original Jiang You, he would have misjudged the true attitude of the two elders and exposed it in what he said next.

Only by thoroughly understanding the intricacies of this situation can we give Gu Zhengfeng the answer he wants to hear.

This is also another level of test for Jiang You by Gu Zhengfeng.

Test whether he is qualified to negotiate on an equal footing with himself on behalf of Yama Luo.

The test before entering is Jiang You's strength. Without strength, I'm afraid he won't be able to get through this door. After entering, his mind and cunning will be tested.

When Jiang You thought about this, he still couldn't figure out what role Gong Jianqiu played in it?

She herself is a direct disciple of the great elder, but she is the main force in lifting the seal?

There are only two answers for such a situation. One is that there is information that Jiang You doesn't know. The second is that Gong Jianqiu is simply simple-minded and is used as a swordsman.

Jiang You somehow felt that the second answer might be closer to the truth.

Jiang You paused for a long while, and Gu Zhengfeng waited for him very patiently. After all, his next sentence was very important.

If it's important, it's normal to think more before saying it.

After Jiang You's eyes quickly flashed at the two elders, he smiled and said: "What kind of era are we in now? If Yama doesn't talk about it, the opinions of the people below are still valued. If you don't know how to adapt and insist on going your own way, then don't change Have you become an independent man?"

Jiang You glanced at Gu Zhengfeng and saw that Jiang You did it deliberately for Gu Zhengfeng to see. Gu Zhengfeng laughed loudly, stroked his beard with his hand and said: "Hahaha, well said. , In this era, it is impossible not to know how to adapt. If Yama can have such a talented person as the young master, he will definitely be prosperous in the future.

If that's the case, then just do what Young Master Jiang said, you bastard, don't get out of here! "

Jiang You's answer made Gu Zhengfeng extremely satisfied, and he yelled at the door.

The leading disciple outside came forward.

"Master, Elder Li, Elder Gong, Young Master Jiang! Xu Haoqing is here to greet you."

This man saluted the four of them, and except for Jiang You who returned the salute, the other three remained motionless.

"Did you hear what Young Master Jiang said?"

"heard it."

"Well, I will give you a chance today to explain clearly why you want to lift the mountain closure. Otherwise, you will really end up with the reputation of a single man and be laughed at by the world!"

When Gu Zhengfeng said this, he glanced at the two elders with a smile.

Immediately, Xu Haoqing began to give a long speech from the perspective of saving the people from the fire and water, resolving the problems in people's livelihood and developing and strengthening the Emei Sect. His voice was sonorous and powerful, the content was quoted from classics, and his expression was awe-inspiring.

After hearing this, Jiang You also praised in his heart, "What a great speech!"

After finishing speaking, Gu Zhengfeng nodded and said: "What you said is not unreasonable, but you are so disrespectful and dare to use such methods. If you commit the following offense, if all the disciples in the future follow suit, then I, the leader, will still Whatever you do, you must not go unpunished. All the disciples who participated in this incident will be fined a monthly salary for one year, and at the same time, they will be banned from the mountains and meditate on their mistakes!"

After Gu Zhengfeng finished speaking, he smiled and said to the two great elders: "You two, do you think this punishment is enough? If not, I will punish you more severely!"

Jiang You looked at it and shouted in his heart that he was shameless. This man and the fifth master couldn't be half-brothers. They both had black hearts. He just said something reasonable and started to punish his disciples. Wasn't it acquiescing to cancel the mountain seal? Has the matter been finalized?

Moreover, he punished me lightly and turned around to ask the two great elders for their opinion. Doesn't that make these two great elders look like evil people?

Moreover, those who can be led by Xu Haoqing to cause trouble are all the elite disciples of the Emei inner sect. Ignoring the young man who was weak before, is it easy to cultivate spiritual trees in Linggu at this time? Although the sealing of the mountain is cancelled, it is actually just Ordinary disciples of the outer sect and inner sect could go down the mountain, but the core elite remained untouched, which was considered a compromise and appeasement to the two elders.

This person is really impeccable and resourceful in his work. He is worthy of being the head of Emei. He is really capable!

Elder Gong snorted coldly. Her icy face was exactly the same as Gong Jianqiu's. She stood up and walked straight out. On the way, she said: "Senior brother, the leader has already made a conclusion. Why do you still ask for our opinions? Just be careful about Emei." Our foundation is ruined!"

Elder Li next to him also stood up and said to Gu Zhengfeng: "Senior brother, junior brother, please leave!"

He nodded to Jiang You and left together.

Gu Zhengfeng looked at his junior brother's back, his eyes narrowed into a thin line, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

Soon, Gu Zhengfeng returned to normal and waved his hand to Xu Haoqing, "The matter has been solved, evildoer, why don't you take these disciples and leave quickly, don't neglect our distinguished guests!"

"Yes, disciple, resign!"

Xu Haoqing cupped his hands to Gu Zhengfeng, then smiled at Jiang You, and then left with everyone.

"Hahaha, I took care of the family affairs and made Young Master Jiang laugh."

"The ancient leader has a heart for the common people, which is really admirable!"

"Haha, let's not talk about this anymore. Now that the annoying people are gone, we can talk about business!"

I don't know who Gu Zhengfeng is talking about as an eyesore.

"Emei's mountain closure has been cancelled, and it is about to join the WTO. However, there are not enough disciples in the family, and there is no spare capacity for many things. However, the Yama family has a great cause and dominates the Qin Province. Emei intends to cooperate with Yama. I wonder what Master Jiang's plan is?"

"The ancient leader is ridiculous. Yama Luo's small business has only been established for a few years. Compared with Emei, a large sect with a long history, it is simply not worth mentioning. Moreover, Yama Luo pays attention to win-win cooperation and is humble and kind. It is well-known among various organizations in Qin Province. Why is Xiongba said? The difference between the ancient leader's words and spread out will cause misunderstandings among some friends who do not know Yama Luo."

Jiang You's expression remained unchanged while he was talking nonsense.

"Oh, that's it. Alas, I don't often move around in Shu. When I hear the news, I always follow what others say. Recently, I heard someone say that the scabbard on Young Master Jiang's back turned out to be an item from Ziwu Temple. It was in the Young Master's ceremony. At that time, it was snatched away by Yama Luo, which is the most congratulatory gift. Today, after seeing such a humble gentleman like Young Master Jiang, I realized how ridiculous this rumor is!"

Jiang You's mouth twitched, thinking to himself. "Okay, now I know what you are doing in seclusion. During this time, you have been collecting information about Yama and me!"

"The person who spread this rumor is really a villain. This scabbard is definitely from Ziwu Guan, but it was borrowed by the Fifth Master for me. I will have to replace it later. The ancient leader cannot listen to such rumors. !”

"Hahaha, this is natural!"

The old fox and the little fox looked at each other and laughed, without saying anything.

Then Gu Zhengfeng began to discuss cooperation methods with Jiang You. Qin Province and Shu Province were adjacent, and Emei wanted to open up trade routes between the two provinces, and at the same time, he also wanted to settle in major cities in Shu to establish business and his own influence.

It is necessary for Yama to send manpower to assist Emei. In exchange, Yama can also expand his power to Shu, and at the same time, Yama can get 10% of the profit share.

Jiang You thought, this old fox is really loud. He only gave 10% when he came up. Moreover, the Shu land was so chaotic. Yama had wanted to develop this area before, so he didn't need your consent. Now that the mountain closure has been cancelled, just Do you need external forces to pay protection fees? This face changes so quickly.

Jiang You naturally disagreed, and got entangled with Gu Zhengfeng over the 10% interest, and finally negotiated 20% for the first three years, and then reduced it to 15%.

Gu Zhengfeng thought in his mind that the first two years of the establishment of these affairs were in the development stage, and the benefits were in the rising period, not much more than 20%. They would basically reach their peak in the third year, and Yama would only be in that year at most. It wasn't that he couldn't accept it, but he still said that Jiang You had done Emei a favor this time, and for Jiang You's sake, he treated it as a return of favor.

Then Gu Zhengfeng began to ask about Zhanyuan College. Jiang You saw that he was very interested, so he invited them to send a teaching force from Emei to settle in.

Gu Zhengfeng just smiled and shook his head, saying that he would also open a college in Shu Province. By then, the two colleges could communicate.

"You are really worthless!" Jiang You cursed in his heart, and then said that the people in Qin Province had formed the Righteous Alliance, and all the people who joined were famous and decent people. Since Emei cooperated with Yama, after joining the alliance, they became a family, a family. When doing business, many things will be much more convenient.

Gu Zhengfeng was indeed interested in the Righteous Alliance and said he could join. However, the Righteous Alliance’s affairs in Shu Province required Emei to take the lead. In the future, Emei could only be involved in organizing organizations in Shu Province, and the Righteous Alliance could not operate on its own in Shu Province. Pull the organization in.

Although Gu Zhengfeng is the head of Emei, Emei is also a famous sect with a good reputation. But it was precisely this that allowed him to deeply understand how rich the benefits were from occupying the name of the Righteous Path. Once the Righteous Alliance becomes bigger, the power to define who is the Righteous Path and who is the Evil Path will be in his hands. , naturally occupying the great righteousness, the benefits are endless!

Emei is the most powerful Qizong leader and has extraordinary influence in the Shu region. Being able to join the Righteous Alliance is also a strong complement and endorsement for it. It makes people see that the members of the Righteous Alliance are all big organizations with a good reputation, so their credibility will naturally be high. Yes, it is in line with Fifth Master and his group’s development plan for the Righteous Alliance.

"There are many members in the Righteous Alliance. As Young Master Yama, I can't decide whether Emei can join. I need to go back for a meeting to discuss. However, I believe that other members will welcome Emei to join. After all, there are some and ancient masters in it. The same righteous people who care about the common people, care about the country and the people, and are dedicated to serving the people!"

The two quickly finalized a rough plan, and then Yan Luo and Emei needed to send a negotiation team to conduct final negotiations and sign documents at a location between the two organizations.

Although the signing of the document has no legal effect, everyone is a respectable person. If he violates the contract and is slapped in the face by others, how can he still hang out in the world later? How can one have the dignity to claim to be righteous?

We all follow the path of sustainable development, and we will not do things like drying up lakes and burning forests for hunting. At this level, the signed documents also have a layer of guarantee.

Moreover, as the Righteous Alliance grows, it will also play a role in supervising and supervising the cooperation between organizations within the alliance in the future. This is also what Wu Ye wants to do.

For future cooperation with other organizations, there is no need to find distance between the two places. The contract can be signed directly at the meeting point of the Righteous Alliance. It will be jointly supervised by all member organizations and only need to pay a "trivial" fee.

Once one party breaks the contract, it is evil, and all righteous people in the world can be punished.

After the two reached an agreement, Jiang You still felt something was wrong, especially what Elder Gong said before leaving, not to ruin Emei's foundation.

Is the impact of lifting the mountain closure so big?

Jiang You also directly asked why the famous families in Shu adopted the policy of closing the mountains, and what concerns there were.

But Gu Zhengfeng talked about him in a tight tone and did not reveal any information at all. He only praised Jiang You for his great understanding and his ability to adapt the Autumn Water Sword to the weather and change it into a Spring Water Sword, which was better than his own, the master of Emei. His talent is quite high, which is really admirable.

Jiang You thought to himself, "It seems that this is the key. I need to tell Fifth Master later so that Emei doesn't get tricked!"

After thinking about it, Jiang You left despite Gu Zhengfeng's repeated attempts to persuade him to stay.

"This old fox is really naughty and incompatible with this Emei man. The successor chosen by the previous leader is really the right one! But don't be afraid. I am only responsible for pulling the strings. I will let the Fifth Master fight with him later to see who is better between the two. More treacherous!"

Jiang You took the donkey and left Emei with Gu Zhengfeng personally seeing him off.

Jiang You's original plan was to go back to Yama directly, but because there were many doubts about the mountain closure, he thought he would wander around Shu to see if he could find anything fishy!
