Hybrid Spiritual Plant Cultivation

Chapter 232: Top Management Attitude
The whole process of this incident was immediately presented to the table of the Presbyterian Church.

"Look, the envoys from the outer sect are making a fuss now, saying that we have violated the covenant and used improper means to intercept the profits of the Jiuxiao Chamber of Commerce, and they want us to give an explanation."

The great elder said.

The elders checked the relevant information one after another, and after reading it, they fell silent.

"This Chen Jing has been cultivated by the sect in vain, but he does not care about the overall situation." An elder threw down the document and snorted heavily.

But there was still silence.

No one objected and no one agreed.

After the last incident of being number one in the academy, the chief elder took advantage of the situation to purge the elders’ council. Even though it has been a while, there is still some unrest inside.

I’m afraid that if I make a wrong statement, I’ll be labeled a traitor.

That would be fine, but there is another reason why no one dares to speak up, and that is the internal factional issues between the previous and current clan leaders.

There are two mines in the sect, both buried in this pit, so you have to think carefully before you speak.

The elder who had just spoken was a pro-foreigner and a die-hard supporter of the current sect leader, so he immediately expressed his attitude.

"It's best not to hurt the relationship in this matter."

Whenever this happens.

The balancers who believe that everything can be balanced will step forward to break the deadlock.

In order not to hurt the relationship, the natural approach is to neither stand nor stand, neither help nor help. Everyone should take a step back, and it will be good for you, me and everyone.

"This is the words of a mature and prudent person."

"I also think this is a good idea."

"Well... call Chen Zhenchuan and the Chamber of Commerce to have a good talk. We want an explanation for everything. We are not bullying others by taking advantage of our power. We just pay more attention to people's livelihood."

With the Balance Faction taking the lead, the remaining elders immediately learned to speak and started to smooth things over.

sometimes.

When the people below become tough and put pressure on others, the people above may not be able to show much determination.

And if the people above have some kind of determination, there is actually no need to test them below, because they are not blind and can see it.

The Great Elder looked at this, closed his eyes, and felt some pain in his heart.

Ugh.

It’s okay when encountering daily trivial matters, but when something big happens, everyone doesn’t know what to do, or they start to choose sides.

Where is your wisdom?

"Qingming."

The Great Elder called out a name.

In the Council of Elders, only the younger generation of elders headed by Qing Ming are still somewhat useful.

It's not about how capable he is.

But there is ambition.

The older generation has lost their spirit!

He dares to do and can do things that others dare not do.

"Great Elder, I'm here."

"What do you think?"

"Protect Chen Jing!"

Qing Ming had been resting with his eyes closed. When the great elder called his name, he immediately opened his eyes and responded.

When asked at this time, there was no hesitation.

The resolute and powerful voice drowned out the entire audience.

Everyone looked at him with different expressions.

"Why?"

The Great Elder showed a slight look of relief.

"How can you beat your own child when he/she does the right thing?" Qing Ming said with a smile.

"Is this the right thing to do? This is causing trouble!"

The elder who first spoke out and said that Chen Jing was ignoring the overall situation immediately retorted.

"May I ask what kind of trouble you have caused? The changes to the terms of Anning Prefecture took several years and were gradual. Each term was well-organized and each link was fair and open. How can there be improper means as the envoy said, how can there be unwarranted embezzlement, how can there be interception?"

Qing Ming asked calmly, enunciating each word.

He looked at the elders.

Keep your eyes level.

"If this is not right, but a disaster, then asking the child to kneel down and make outsiders happy is considered to be for the sake of the overall situation?"

These words come down.

No one can refute it.

Elder Qing Ming did not let him go and continued to pursue him relentlessly.

He pointed at the elder and retorted, which was actually like firing at everyone.

And the more you drive, the more fun it is.

The truth is, Chen Jing's methods were too clean. Even though he tailored the rules for himself, the whole process, from beginning to end, was impeccable.

The An Ning Society has gained widespread support throughout the lower five prefectures.

Is this called wrong?
and.

Chen Jing's attack range is very precise.

Accurately hit several major export spiritual plants of Jiuxiao Chamber of Commerce.

It was a very powerful blow, but it only partially hit the target.

Because the export range of Jiuxiao Chamber of Commerce is too large, can these few be considered targeted?
It was obviously a coincidence.

What is breaking your little finger? It's called a minor injury. How can you sue me for murder? That's nonsense!
Not to mention any improper means.

Moreover, Chen Jing also took the initiative to give away his almost exclusive quota of the Queen of Peiyuan Rice. He is such a graceful person who cares about the overall situation. How can you have the nerve to say that he is using despicable means?
Apart from your Jiuxiao Chamber of Commerce, why does no one else say there is collusion between officials and businessmen?
Please reflect on yourself and think about whether it is your fault!

Elder Qingming listed all of the above in his own tone, denouncing the condemnation from the outside sect as completely useless.

"Such a true teaching is a blessing for our Qing Nang Sect. In my opinion, it should be rewarded handsomely!"

Finally, he concluded.

Without even looking at anyone else, he bowed, sat down, and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

The meeting fell silent.

To them, the speech was brilliant, but it did not solve the problem.

Anyone can stand on the moral high ground and export what they want, but the real problem is dirty, ugly and vulgar.

The elder who had been criticized for a long time sneered.

"Okay, okay, let the outer sect go."

He didn't argue.

I can't argue with you, but if they really want to quit, won't you still have to beg them to come back?

What's the point of standing on the moral high ground and outputting when others are standing on the economic and military high ground!
They don't export easily, but who can stop them when they start exporting?
The meeting ends here.

The Great Elder decided to let Elder Qingming take full responsibility for this matter.

……

Seven days later.

The photo of this conversation was sent to Chen Jing's desk.

Of course, it was not that he had already won over the members of the Council of Elders, but that Elder Qing Ming personally brought the video back for Chen Jing to see.

"Elder Qing spoke out for justice. I am grateful to you forever!"

After Chen Jing looked at it, he bowed and said.

Such a resolute protection, no matter what, he had to accept this favor, which could be regarded as an attitude shown by the sect to him.

Naturally, his temptation could not be hidden from this group of cunning people.

People are just afraid of things, not that they don't understand.

Of course.

Don’t be too quick to be impressed!

Chen Jing had received compulsory education and knew that in certain negotiations in history, those who were criticizing were speechless at the negotiating table, but the unequal treaties had to be signed anyway.

So just take these nice words as nice words and don't expect anything from them.

"Alas, it is because of the weakness of the sect that the true teachings have been affected!"

Elder Qingming smiled bitterly.

"Elder, you are too kind!"

Chen Jing immediately stood up and said, "I will never refuse the sect's order. This disciple has damaged the sect's overall interests and should be punished."

"No, no, no, what's wrong with that? Why should I be punished? Who dares to say nonsense to you? I'm going to cause trouble for him and let the True Transmission suffer injustice. Uncle Yun Ting has returned from his spiritual journey, and he won't call on the thunder to strike me!"

Elder Qingming also stood up.

After some polite exchanges, the atmosphere became harmonious.

The two sat down again.

Elder Qingming continued, "We have dealt with the envoys from the outer sect. It is good to give them a warning. It is true that our Qingnang Sect needs them, but we cannot let them do whatever they want. The true disciples may not know. Now the Qingnang Sect is corrupting very quickly. It is shocking. If no one stands up, there will be nothing to watch in the future."

“It’s not easy for the sect either.” Chen Jing nodded.

"After the audit by the Council of Elders, An Ning Mansion has indeed developed well recently, and we will increase some of the quotas."

This is real comfort.

What's the point of just saying nice things? That's just empty talk.

"The elders are wise, the patriarch is wise!"

Chen Jing's tone suddenly became sincere.

Slippery...

Elder Qingming laughed in his heart, and then said: "The matter of Qingnang Cave Heaven may happen in recent years, so the true teaching can be prepared early."

"clear."

This was agreed upon long ago.

But Chen Jing guessed that there should be another hidden meaning: you should slow down the pace of doing things and not be too intense.

Otherwise, I'll throw you into the next copy.

You don't want to stay in a dungeon for who knows how long, right?
"Regarding the quota adjustment, I do consider some inappropriate aspects. This is the latest draft."

Seeing that the other side had already offered benefits and threats, Chen Jing had to show his own attitude.

So he took out the draft.

After receiving the new draft, Elder Qing Ming also smiled with relief.

The original rules have remained basically unchanged.

However, a new qualification indicator has been added, namely "high-end equipment".

In other words, the advantages of foreign chambers of commerce have also been included in the qualification standards. This time, at least on the surface, it is fair.

He could also see Chen Jing's attitude from it.

I still have to do what I have to do, but I will try my best not to leave any evidence.

That'll do.

"Good good."

Elder Qingming nodded repeatedly: "You have considered it very carefully. In this case, I will not disturb your cultivation. I am busy with many things and need to go back and report early!"

"Elder, walk slowly!"

Chen Jing stood up and saw him off to the door, where he watched the elder leave on a cloud.

……

Return to the government office.

Ying Huiyin was lying on the table to rest. He walked over, lifted her long hair, and brushed it across her delicate nose.

The little nose twitched slightly, and then the eyes opened, and the gem-like pupils reflected his figure.

"You're back?"

"Ah."

"So, how does the sect plan to deal with it?"

"It's pretty much what I expected. It's just a compromise."

Chen Jing pulled a chair over, sat next to him, and stretched his muscles.

Don't underestimate this Elder Qingming, who keeps saying that he firmly supports Chen and his words sound very nice.

But don't look at what people say, but what they do.

This time, it's probably just a matter of appeasing both sides, and the appeasement is not very strong, saying that there is nothing wrong with trying to smooth things over.

however.

If your attitude is not firm, then you have no attitude.

Especially at times like this, any slight sign of weakness or retreat will be infinitely magnified.

Chen Jing lost further confidence in the Council of Elders and the sect's top leaders.

He saw the ability in Elder Qingming and used it to observe the state of the senior leaders of the Council of Elders.

This Elder Qing, who is able to make a name for himself, can handle a difficult task seemingly beautifully, but he is like a tinkerer.

Although, this is also very difficult and rare.

But now that a bloody battle is about to happen, even the best tailor will be of no use.

What Chen Jing hopes to see.

It is the courage to cut off one's own arm and the determination to risk everything.
