Chapter 367 Help
Tangning asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Ding Jianyang said: "I want to gain a firm foothold in the Zhu family, as you can see, although I succeeded in building the foundation, I am basically an idler, with the meager salary of the Zhu family every month, it is not enough to pay for the cultivation of elixir , like a beggar. I want to control the important property of the Zhu family, I hope you can help me."

"To be more specific, where do you plan to start and how do you need my cooperation?"

"With my current status, qualifications, and cultivation, it is impossible to master their core affairs, but there should still be opportunities for other industries that are not very important but have considerable profits, such as attics, gambling houses, and some shops. To fight for gold, start here first."

Tangning said, "It looks like you have a plan?"

Ding Jianyang smiled: "There is a shop opened by Zhu's family in Tainan Gufang City. The profit is quite considerable. What's more, I plan to start from here if I can deal with people from all walks of life in Zhu's family and establish relationships."

"Now the person in charge of this shop is Zhu Yuming. He is greedy for money and lustful. The reason is also deep, and the words are quite weighty, so I have been patient with it."

"I need you to take this person down. Zhu Bochong will ask my uncle to intercede. If something goes wrong with him, I believe I should be able to take over this position smoothly."

Tang Ning frowned slightly, "You didn't want me to assassinate him, did you! Killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator is no small matter. I don't want to become life and death enemies with the Zhu family for no reason."

"Don't worry! It's not that serious, just let him ruin his reputation and make things bigger. The Ding family can't do this kind of thing. You should have a way! I have time, I'm not in a hurry, you can take it easy Slow planning."

Tangning pondered, "Yes, yes, what can I get? So far, we have been giving you everything, but we have never received what we deserve."

"If I remember correctly, since the beginning of our cooperation, you have never actively provided us with information, and I have never obtained valuable information from you. Now you want me to deal with Zhu Yuming and fight for your own interests , you must give me a satisfactory reason!"

Ding Jianyang raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Very well, I like this kind of equal transaction. We are partners, and no one owes anyone else, and there is no need to help each other for free. I will pay you [-] spirit stones afterwards, as reward for this."

Tangning shook her head, "It's not about the Lingshi. I planned to deal with a Foundation Establishment cultivator for you. I also took a lot of risks."

"What do you want?"

"Equivalent exchange, I will help you deal with him, you owe me a favor, or a favor!"

"What do you want me to do?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. When he needs you in the day, I will tell you."

Ding Jianyang thought for a while in silence: "Okay, but I have a request, it must be something within my ability, and the level of risk and difficulty cannot be higher than this."

"Don't worry, it's not within your ability, and I won't look for you. Can you handle things that are too difficult?"

"It's a word."

Tangning smiled slightly, shrunk her body, escaped into the ground, left the attic, and walked for a mile before reappearing, turning into light and flying away.

He didn't go to the intelligence station, but went back to the sect directly, came to Zhuxu Cave Mansion, waved his hand, and handed the sound transmission talisman in.

Not long after, the thick fog rolled over, and a young man with big eyebrows and a big waist came out. Although he was tall, his face was still childish, and he looked about eighteen or nineteen years old.

This is Tao Yong, Zhu Xu's new apprentice a few years ago. He had never had any apprentices before, but since he became a deacon, he has to be surrounded by someone who can take care of him at ease, and it is inconvenient for him to do many things by himself.

For example, the share of the information station's spirit stone subsidy, the enshrining of the following disciples, and some miscellaneous trivial matters, you can't do everything yourself!So he accepted this apprentice.

"Uncle Tang, Master invites you to enter." Tao Yong walked up to him and bowed. He only has the third level of Qi Refining and has only been transformed for a few years. Now he is assigned by Zhu Xu to the aircraft support team. That's all.

Tangning followed him to the main room of Zhu Xudong Mansion, Jishou said, "Senior Brother Zhu."

"Junior Brother Tang is here, please sit down, this time is for the funding of the intelligence station!"

Tangning sat down as she said, "Yes, it's mainly for this matter. I have a small matter to tell you. Before I came, I went to Zhu's house. I'm afraid Zhu Mingxuan is going to die. He won't be alive for a few days. If there is no accident The head of the Zhu family should be Zhu Bochong."

"This Zhu Bochong, what do you think?"

Tang Ning said: "He is the eldest son of the Zhu family, and he has been in charge of the Zhu family's affairs for many years. He has long been acting as the head of the family. He is a steady, scheming man, and his emotions are invisible. The only shortcoming is that he loves his daughter Zhu Yunrou too much. "

"After Zhu Mingxuan's death, I think the western part of the Central Plains will usher in a short period of chaos. Those families that have been oppressed by the Zhu family for a long time may take some action, but the Zhu family has a rich heritage after all. Without the intervention of powerful external forces, the family business will be preserved. It should be fine."

Zhu Xu nodded: "Keep an eye on the Zhu family. The Demon Sect has become more and more powerful in recent years. We are doing well here. On the Qi side, the Shuiyun Sect has lost nearly half of its territory."

"Originally, the Demon Sect only occupied the northern part of the Qi Kingdom. But over the years, many cultivating families have changed their banners. Now half of the land resources in the eastern and western regions of Qi Kingdom have been taken away by the Demon Sect."

"The betrayal of those cultivating families allowed Mozong to take a quarter of the territory of Qi State without a single soldier. In addition, they occupied the northern region before, and the entire Qi State has almost been divided into two. Xuanmen Divide and rule with the Demon Sect."

Tang Ning said: "In Qi State, because of the strength of the New Moon Sect and the Youmei Sect, the Shuiyun Sect's strength is not as good as that of the Shuiyun Sect. Although the Corpse Puppet Sect's strength has increased a lot in recent years, its overall strength is still not as good as our sect. Yes, it should not fall to the level of Shuiyunzong."

"Even though those cultivating families have their hearts towards the Demon Sect, they should not dare to do so under the taboo of rats."

Zhu Xudao: "Maybe you don't have the guts to blatantly seek refuge with the Corpse Puppet Sect, but you also have to be on guard against someone secretly cooperating with the Demon Sect, especially those rich and powerful families, who have great influence. Fleeing."

Tangning nodded, "I know."

Zhu Xu said: "Let's not talk about this, I'm afraid you will stay in the intelligence station for a while longer. I have tried to transfer you back to the sect many times these years, but I have never had a good chance. Last time I mentioned this in the discussion matter, but the opposition is great."

"Junior Brother Liu, they don't agree with you returning to the sect to take up the post. The reason is that there is no suitable candidate in the department other than you. Junior Brother Zhang Yan is getting old, and Junior Brother Du Yuankai has retired from the position of the intelligence station. There is no reason to take up the post again. Junior Sister Xu Cuiyao and Junior Brother Chen Xuan are not strong enough, and Junior Brother Liu Miao is a supervisor, so it is impossible to leave the sect."

"I applied to Qingxuan Palace, but was also rejected."

According to the unwritten rules of the intelligence department, the stewards who go out to work generally must have at least the middle stage of foundation establishment. Without this level of cultivation, it is difficult to truly handle complicated things on their own.

That's why Tang Ning was not sent by Lu Xingxian to serve as the head of the Silver Fox Intelligence Station until the middle of the breakthrough.

Currently, the three officers stationed in the intelligence department, Tang Ning, Wu Teng, and Lu Guang, are all mid-stage foundation-establishment monks, including Du Yuankai and Zhang Yan who also had the same level of cultivation before.

The appointment of disciples stationed abroad must be reported to the Qingxuan Palace, and they can only be appointed with the approval of the Qingxuan Palace.

Although Zhu Xu was successfully elected as the deacon of the intelligence department, his current situation is like a fish entangled in a net. .

Although Lu Xingxian has long been resigned, the forces that have been entrenched for many years are still very strong. After all, Zhu Xu has a shallow foundation and a weak foundation. It is impossible to reverse this situation in a short time.

The two chatted for a long time, Tangning got up to say goodbye, and left her cave to collect funds from the Financial Hall of the Information Division.

The next day he left the sect, returned to the intelligence station, and handed over the funds to Xu Qingwan.

A few days later, news came from Zhu Maoqing that Zhu Mingxuan had passed away, and Zhu Bochong was officially elected as the head of the Zhu family.

At night, Tangning was sitting cross-legged in the room when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

A tall, broad-shouldered man with thick eyebrows and big eyes pushed the door open and saluted: "Senior Tang."

The person who came was Chi Yinglong. Since he joined the intelligence station, because he was not used to the restrained life underground, he asked to go out to do some specific investigative affairs.

Tangning sent Kong Ji to investigate his past carefully, but found no connection with the Demon Sect, so he was sent to Zheng Wei's office to do intelligence investigation work.

Now more than ten years have passed, and he has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. As long as he breaks through the bottleneck of this level, he can reach the tenth level of Qi Refining, and he is expected to build a foundation.

"You're here, sit down!"

"Yes." Crepe Yinglong took his seat according to his words: "You called me, what do you want?"

"How long have you been at the intelligence station?"

"About fifteen or sixteen years."

"I heard that you have done a good job with Zheng Daoyou all these years!"

"Thanks to senior Hong Fu, nothing went wrong."

Tangning smiled and said, "You did a good job yourself. What does it have to do with me? I asked you to do something this time because I wanted you to do it."

Chi Yinglong immediately said: "If the senior has an order, the junior will never refuse to go up the mountain of swords or down into the sea of ​​fire."

Tangning waved her hand, "It's not that serious, but I don't want others to know about it, including Zheng Daoyou or others, do you understand?"

"Yes, the junior understands."
