One person said: The essence of Wuhou Qimen lies not in Qimen, but in Wuhou.

He adjusted his silver-rimmed glasses and, while taking documents out of his briefcase, continued in his standard working tone, "Master Zhang's ideological awareness is truly high."

With your words, our work will be much easier to carry out.

To be honest, before I came, I was worried that you might not understand our policies, but now it seems I was overthinking it.

Elders like Zhang Tianshi, with their high moral character and profound understanding of righteousness, serve as role models for our cultural and tourism system.

He took a neatly bound official document from his briefcase and presented it to Zhang Zhiwei with both hands.

The document cover is in the standard red-headed format, and the title is in Founder Xiaobiao Song Simplified font, with clear and solemn handwriting—"Notice on the Special Project for the Cultural Heritage Protection and Infrastructure Upgrading and Renovation of the Tianshi Mansion at Longhu Mountain in Shangqing Town, Guixi City, Yingtan City, Jiangxi Province".

The document was thick and heavy. Underneath the cover were several approval seals from relevant functional departments, as well as the red seal of the Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism. Next to it was the countersignature seal of the Yingtan Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism, and the date on the cover was yesterday.

Liu Jianjun and Zhang Zhiwei took the documents with both hands and continued their report. Their tone shifted from the previous friendly greetings to a formal work coordination mode, with every word precise and to the point: "Master Zhang, this is a special work notice directly issued by the Provincial Department, and it is also a key task personally promoted by the provincial leaders after their inspection and research."

During their inspection, provincial leaders specifically pointed out that Longhushan Tianshi Mansion, as the ancestral home of Taoism and a national-level cultural relic protection unit, holds an irreplaceable and important position in the inheritance of traditional culture. However, they also identified some pressing issues—such as the lack of maintenance and repair of some ancient buildings, the need to upgrade supporting facilities like access roads and parking lots, and significant room for improvement in the scenic area's landscaping, beautification, and signage system.

He paused for a moment, then tapped the title on the document cover with his finger, his tone becoming more solemn: "Therefore, the provincial department has decided to carry out a comprehensive and systematic upgrade and renovation of the Tianshi Mansion and its surrounding areas in Longhu Mountain."

Specific measures include the protective restoration of the ancient building complex, the widening and hardening of the mountain roads and the separation of pedestrians and vehicles, the expansion and upgrading of the visitor service center, the redesign of the scenic area's green landscape, and the improvement of related supporting facilities such as parking lots, public health facilities, barrier-free access, and smart tourism guide systems.

The goal is to organically combine the inheritance of traditional culture with the development of the tertiary industry, promote high-quality local economic development through cultural and tourism integration, and contribute to the construction of a beautiful Jiangxi.

He took a deep breath and steadily uttered the most crucial sentence: "According to the regulations, the relevant policy funds for this upgrading and renovation project will be jointly borne by the Guixi Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism and the Longhushan Tianshi Mansion."

The specific funding ratio is as follows: Guixi Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism will bear 50% of the total project cost, and Longhushan Tianshi Mansion will bear the other 50%.

Project Deadline – From the date of this notice until the official opening of the Luotian Grand Ritual, all projects must be completed and pass inspection without delay.

Master Zhang, please take a look.

Zhang Zhiwei held the heavy red-headed document in both hands, turning the pages one by one and reading it word by word.

The document is indeed very thick. The first part explains the work objectives and guiding principles, the middle part contains a detailed list of each project and a budget list, the last part contains a construction schedule and acceptance standards, and the last page is a signature and seal section for both parties.

Every item was written down clearly, specifying the cost of repairing which section of road, the materials required to renovate which temple, and even the number of parking spaces to be marked and the number of camphor trees to be planted in the green belt, down to the single digit.

After reading it, he gently closed the document and placed it on the table, still wearing that kind and calm smile, but in his heart he sighed—it wasn't really a punishment, it was at least paving the way for his own sect, much better than Feng Zhenghao's fifty billion.

When he spoke, his voice was still loud and sincere, but with a greater sense of solemnity and commitment than before: "Director Liu, on behalf of all the Taoist priests of the Longhu Mountain Celestial Master's Mansion, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the leaders of the Provincial Department and the Municipal Bureau."

This document demonstrates the care and support for our Celestial Master's Mansion, as well as the high importance attached to the inheritance of our Taoist culture.

Road and bridge construction, renovation of ancient buildings, and environmental beautification are all tangible benefits for the Tianshi Mansion, tourists, and local residents.

The Celestial Master's Mansion will fully cooperate, ensuring that the construction period is not delayed and the quality of the project is not affected.

Before the Luotian Grand Ritual, all projects will be fully completed—this is our promise to the leaders, and also our promise to the people of Shangqing Town.

Liu Jianjun smiled and nodded, then took out a square inkpad box and three copies of the signature and stamp page from his briefcase and placed them on the table. His tone remained as warm and solemn as ever: "Master Zhang is indeed a highly respected and enlightened senior."

All of this is for the development of our Shangqing Town, and for the inheritance and promotion of Taoist culture.

Oh, and could you please stamp this, Master Zhang?

These words were spoken casually, as if they were simply saying, "Please sign this," but everyone present could tell the weight of their meaning.

Zhang Zhiwei smiled and nodded, then reached into the inner pocket of his Taoist robe and pulled out a palm-sized sandalwood box.

The box was engraved with Tai Chi and Bagua patterns, and its corners were protected by brass corner protectors. On the brass surface was a small brass lock—the key he had taken from Tian Jinzhong's neck the night before to open it.

That's right. Since last night, the seal of the Celestial Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain has no longer been locked in Tian Jinzhong's cabinet, but has been placed in this sandalwood box and kept close to Zhang Zhiwei's body in the inner pocket of his Taoist robe, never leaving his side for a moment.

Liu Jianjun's eyes lit up slightly when he saw this detail.

The moment Zhang Zhiwei unlocked the copper lock and took out the seal, he added in a kind and tactful tone, as if casually mentioning, "Master Zhang truly lives up to his title; he is meticulous in everything he does."

Carrying your seal with you at all times—that's true responsibility.

In fact, Longhushan also falls under the category of government institutions. According to the regulations on seal management, such official seals must be properly stored, kept by designated personnel, and registered for use. They must not be stolen or misused by petty thieves.

Once the seal gets out of control, the consequences can be very serious—at the very least, it's a management responsibility issue; at worst, it provides an opportunity for criminals.

Master Zhang, don't you agree?

These words were spoken politely and tactfully, but everyone present understood the unspoken meaning—the criminal who had been swindling people at the foot of the mountain for half a month with a genuine Taoist certificate was using the official seal of your Celestial Master's Mansion.

That's all for this time. If something like this happens again, it won't be something that can be solved by building roads and houses.

Zhang Zhiwei's hand, which was stamping the document, paused for a fleeting moment—an extremely subtle moment.

Then he pressed the seal firmly into the signature area, lifted his hand, leaving a bright red and clear mark.

He carefully put the seal back into the sandalwood box, locked it, and placed it back in the inner pocket of his Taoist robe. Then he raised his head and replied in a solemn and sincere tone with only one sentence, not a word more or less: "I will keep Director Liu's words in mind."
