Skilled in managing a house

Yuan Zhenren is so old-fashioned. No matter what tricks you use to provoke the generals, I will not accept your tricks. If you want to start a competition among young disciples, I won't object to it. Let's find a time to compete in the future. What should I do today? If you want to play with those messy things with me, I won’t give you that chance at all.

"Yes, yes, what Chairman Yuan said is right. If you want to compete, when can't you do it?" "That's right, the rules haven't been finalized yet. We can't delay the important event of today's election." "Do business first, compete. It’s not too late to study this matter after the election.”…

When the various sects of the Zhengyi Sect saw what Master Yuan said, they all agreed. Anyway, they wanted to elect the president first. You, Master Lu, want to use provoking methods and take advantage of loopholes, but I won’t give you this opportunity.

Master Lu's face remained calm, as if he already had a plan in mind. When the voices of the members of the Zhengyi Sect settled down, Lu Zhenren said: "Pindao has been thinking about the rules these days, and now he has figured out the rules. We will use a contest to decide the president and vice president. The ownership of CK Hutchison as a director may seem like a bit of a joke, but it is actually a positive motivation. In addition, Yangchun Guan has also attracted some sponsorship for this purpose. Several philanthropic companies are willing to invest 300 million to promote this This competition can be considered as a contribution to Zhenhai Taoism. I made a simple plan. As long as they are willing to sign up, each Taoist temple will receive an appearance fee of 10 million. We have a total of 31 Taoist temples here, including Baimei Palace has a bye, and the other 30 families will decide on 15 places, and Baimei Palace will enter the top 16. The disciples who enter the top 16 will be able to get the disciple magic tools provided by our Yangchun Temple and Baimei Palace as encouragement. If they enter the top eight, At least you can get a director position as a reward."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of many people in the audience lit up. You know, although the Taoist temples attending the Taoist conference all have some reputation, unlike the last enlarged Taoist conference held by Zhenren Lu, just a Taoist temple can come. However, among these Taoist temples with some reputation, it does not mean that all of them have an easy time. After all, people who believe in good deeds and offer incense can only go to a few well-known Taoist temples. The other Taoist temples have only mediocre incense and do not have much income in a year.

Now Lu Zhenren’s slogan is that as long as you sign up, you can get an appearance fee of 10 million. This amount of money is already considered a considerable amount for some Taoist temples with average strength present.

If it were Zhang Yu's enlarged meeting of the Taoist Association, it is estimated that 200,000 could bring many small Taoist temples into submission.

The appearance fee of 10 million immediately attracted the attention of many Taoist temples, not only those from the Quanzhen Sect, but also many Taoist temples from the Zhengyi Sect. Although this is a bit blatantly suspected of buying votes, Lu Zhenren said well that it was sponsored by Xinshan. Another point is also very important, because Zhenren Lu has mentioned that Yangchunguan and Baimei Palace will provide disciple magic weapons for the disciples who advance to the top 16. Generally speaking, these magical instruments are exchanged for merit, that is, bought with money. If Yangchun Temple and Baimei Palace can be given away for free, that is definitely a good thing.

However, this also depends on whether the White Eyebrow Palace agrees. But everyone in the audience also knew that if more than half of the people reached an agreement, it would be inconvenient for the White Eyebrow Palace to disagree.

Seeing the looks of many people in the audience, Lu Zhenren realized that there was a way. He followed the example of striking while the iron was hot and said: "Pindao believes that this proposal can completely improve the attitude and determination of various Taoist temples in cultivating young disciples, and to a certain extent promote The prosperity of Zhenhai Taoism. I just don’t know, what do fellow Taoists think?"

"This proposal is indeed a good one!" "I agree!" "Our Taoist temple must sign up!"... The Quanzhen sects sitting in the audience immediately began to support it.

Many of the representatives of the Orthodox sects are now watching unconsciously. Because they also want to sign up, they can only sign up, and they can directly get 10 million appearance fees. Someone gives them money for free, which is not a good thing.

But the important thing is that once you make an honest statement, it is easy to offend the White Eyebrow Palace.

Master Lu seemed to have expected this. He smiled and kept observing the expressions on the faces of the members of the Zhengyi Sect with his eyes. He was soon able to determine that there were many people who wanted to agree but were afraid to openly agree.

So, after everyone stopped talking, Lu Zhenren immediately said: "We have always voted by raising hands publicly before. I think this is somewhat inappropriate. This time... why not have a secret vote... and see everyone How is your support... Director Qin, Fellow Daoist Yuan, what do you think you think?"

Director Qin has already seen the signs. Although he cannot nod for Zhenren Lu in breaking the rules, he can still help with small things. Director Qin nodded and said: "Secret voting is also a common method for elections and making major decisions. I think it is okay."

Zhenren Yuan naturally saw the situation, but she just didn't expect that Zhenren Lu would actually pull such a trick. This is a blatant purchase, and even the White Eyebrow Palace is included. You know, if you advance to the top sixteen, Baimei Palace needs to take out some disciple magic weapons and give them to the promoted disciples. If I object to this proposal, wouldn't I look stingy? Likewise, this move will also make many Zhengyi sects present dissatisfied.

Therefore, Master Yuan did not answer immediately, but turned to look at Zhang Yu, who was sitting next to him and remained silent, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, you are also the vice president of the Taoist Association. What do you think of Lu Daoyou's proposal? "

Master Yuan is the president and Zhang Yu is the vice president. At this time, Master Yuan needs Zhang Yu to stand up and support him. Also, if you forcibly reject Lu Zhenren's proposal, you will inevitably offend others. Therefore, Master Yuan still hoped that Zhang Yu would do such an offending thing. Anyway, Zhang Yu has already offended a lot of people, so there may be more.

As soon as Zhang Yu heard this, he could guess what Yuan Zhenren was thinking. He was asking him to do something that would sin against all the Zhengyi sects present. To be honest, Zhang Yu also values ​​​​the position of president, because if Wudang Taoist Temple wants to become one of the nine sects in the world, then Zhang Yu must become the president of the Zhenhai Taoist Association. Otherwise, Wudang Taoism will not be able to achieve great success and will not be recognized by other sects.

But Zhang Yu wanted to become the president of the Taoist Association under the double-teaming of Lu Zhenren and Yuan Zhenren. Now it is clear that Lu Zhenren has forced Yuan Zhenren again, and a good opportunity has appeared. But the key point is that this contest has been proved to be a contest between young disciples. Although Zhang Yu is also young, he has a reputation there and there is no way he will be allowed to take part. In this case, can my apprentices, who have only studied for less than a year, win this contest?

Obviously it's impossible. If Lu Zhenren was not sure, he would not dare to do this.
