Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 815 Tax Collection
Tang Ning put away the book and sighed for a long time. Although Thousand Machines and Hundred Puppetry is unique, as a skill, it cannot be accomplished overnight. His most urgent task is to improve his cultivation.

Since he came to the inland of Qingzhou, he has been deeply aware of the serious problem of his lack of cultivation. He had already delayed his practice for a long time due to lack of financial resources during the period of the Xuanmen Alliance in Qingzhou. Now that he has entered the Taixuanzong, All aspects are stable, so don't hurry up and practice!

As for this technique!I'll talk about it later when I have a chance.

He flipped through his hands and took out a one-foot-high blue pagoda, which was the one he brought from the palace. There was a line of small characters engraved on the bottom of the pagoda. Looking carefully, it was the words Xuanling Pagoda, Zhang Zhongshu.

Tang Ning's spiritual sense entered and wandered around for a long time to understand the internal situation inside the Xuanling Pagoda. Finally, she came to the central high platform and smashed the residual phantom on it to pieces.

Although Gaotai Zhouce has the spirit of the golden-haired gray bear entrenched, but because it has not produced spirituality, it will not actively attack the intruders. Only the magic weapon beast soul that has produced spirituality will have the consciousness to attack others. At this time, the magic weapon also You will be promoted to Lingbao

After leaving behind a strand of divine consciousness, he exited the inner space of the magic weapon, turned over his hand, swallowed a pill, sat cross-legged, and practiced with his eyes closed.

In a blink of an eye, more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. At the end of the month, Tangning left the cave and came to the meeting hall directly under the sixth team. There were several figures sitting in it. Yu Yan, Zhang Chaoyang, and Jiang Tianyuan were already present.

Several people chatted about some big and small things that happened in Xuantang City recently.

"I heard that Zhang Zheng, the treasurer of Fengyun Chamber of Commerce in this city, has been transferred away."

"The mere Fengyun Chamber of Commerce dares to blatantly oppose us, it is really asking for trouble."

"Maybe he is being promoted and reused! The transfer of him is just to show outsiders, so that both parties can have a step down."

"In my opinion, these chambers of commerce are really a little crazy. We really need to suppress them and show them some color, otherwise they will dare to ride on our heads and do their best."

About a quarter of an hour later, Yu Gan came in from the outside, took his seat at the main seat, and said, "This year is just the time for material collection, and the headquarters will collect corresponding tribute taxes from the Xuanmen of the [-] pavilion cities under it. Everyone has made their own preparations, and all the directly subordinate brigades are dispatched to check the accounts in each pavilion city on the fifteenth day of the next month to ensure the smooth completion of the payment of tribute and taxes."

"Yes." Several people under the seat responded in unison.

As one of the four major sects, Taixuanzong is the leader of the Taoist sects in the world. All Xuanmen sects in Qingzhou belong to its affiliated sect forces. Every hundred years, they must make corresponding offerings, just like princes paying tribute to the emperor.

Although Taixuanzong is weak now, he still has some control over Qingzhou Xuanmen, and those Daxuanmen are just eager to move in private, so far no one really dares to challenge Taixuanzong's position.

The collection of tribute taxes is the authority of Taixuanzong as the four sects.

Paying tribute means still recognizing the status of Taixuanzong's "Son of Heaven". If you don't pay tribute as expected, you will not recognize yourself as affiliated with Taixuanzong's sect, which is equivalent to rebelling.

Not only Xuanmen, but also chambers of commerce and aristocratic families. The Qingzhou Chamber of Commerce needs to pay tribute to the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce as scheduled, and the Qingzhou Aristocratic Family also needs to pay tribute to the Jiang family as scheduled.

Only by paying tribute and taxes can one obtain legal status and be protected accordingly.If you don't pay taxes to these giants, it is an illegal organization, and others can exterminate them wantonly.

Yu Gan went on and on about a few instructions from the headquarters, all of which were trivial matters, such as obeying the rules of the Qingwu Camp, not leaving the post for a long time, negotiating with the captain of the team for permission when going out, and not arguing with others in private and many more……

The discussion went on for an hour before Yu Gan announced that it was over, and several people got up and walked out. This time, for some reason, Su Mingcheng did not participate in the discussion.

Tangning returned to the cave and continued to immerse herself in cultivation.

Half a month passed quickly, and on April [-]th, in front of the meeting hall directly under the brigade, several flashes of light shot towards Tang Ning and his party.

There were already several teams waiting in front of the hall, and as time went by, several other directly subordinate teams also arrived one after another. Everyone waited outside for about half an hour, only to hear a loud rumbling, and a wind spirit ship rushed from the northwest. Come and stop on top of the crowd.

A group of people in the hall came out one file at a time, the leader was Huang Yuan, the steward of the alliance and the captain of the direct brigade, followed by several monks, all of them were the stewards of the direct brigade.

With a wave of Huang Yuan's hand, his figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he was on the Fengling boat, and everyone jumped up one after another.

The Fengling boat sailed out of the Tianniu Mountain Range with a large radiance, and headed southeast. Huang Yuan and a group of stewards entered the cabin, leaving Tangning and other disciples outside the cabin.

Standing on the deck are quite a few armored monks, all of whom were recruited by the alliance. These are not formal disciples of Taixuanzong, but casual monks recruited, just like Gu Yuanya's identity.

There are [-] casual cultivators recruited in the Tianniu Mountains. According to the standards of the Qingwu Camp, the recruited monks of the alliance headquarters should not be lower than Jindan, nor higher than Huashen.

These recruited monks are mainly responsible for chores such as the wing guard department, the finance department, the liaison department, and the like.

..............................

The wind spirit boat sailed for several days, and came to the huge light curtain of Xuanyang Pavilion Rhinoceros Horn Mountain Range, which was the office of the third brigade.

A man with a swallow's jaw and a tiger's beard walked out of the cabin. It was Zhang Yunan, the steward directly under the brigade. With a flash of his figure, he left the warship.

Not long after, the light curtain gradually melted away, and the wind spirit boat slowly sailed into it, suspended on the top of a towering mountain.

Huang Yuan led the crowd to the majestic hall.

The stewards directly under the brigade entered the hall, while Tang Ning and other disciples waited outside.

Soon, a lot of escaping lights came one after another, about half an hour later, everyone in the hall came out in a file, besides Huang Yuan and others, there were also many high-level officials from the third brigade.

"Wang Yalin, you lead the first team of disciples to Fenghua Pavilion to collect local Taoist supplies."

"Dong Wenjin, you lead the second team of disciples to the Queluo Pavilion to collect the local Taoist supplies."

"…………………"

Huang Yuan sent the ten sub-teams directly under the brigade to the ten pavilion cities under the jurisdiction of the third brigade to collect tribute, while Tangning's sixth brigade was sent to Xianyue Pavilion.

In addition to Xuanyang Pavilion, the third brigade also governs nine nearby pavilion cities. Each pavilion city has a small team stationed in charge of managing and guarding local cultivation resources.

At that moment, everyone received the order and set off immediately to collect the Xuanmen tribute tax in various pavilion cities.
