Chapter 25 Political issues are ultimately economic issues
On the morning of May 14, 2018
Liantian City, in the council hall of Qinglian Academy, the Holy Sect Sect Master looked at the petite long-haired woman in front of him with a grim face.
Shang Miaoyu, the chief elder of Qinglian Academy, a cultivator in the Pai Shan Realm, a master of language, good at all languages in the Xiangzhou Continent, with unique skills such as truth, falsehood, and false words, his qualifications in Qinglian Academy are second only to the vice president who was unfortunately killed, and he is also the ultimate elder in the Sword Academy today.
And Shang Miaoyu's heartfelt disgust and disgust fully showed that her words were absolutely heartfelt.
This person is the number one elder of Qinglian Academy, and he actually took the initiative to ask to give up the most important sword book of the Sword Academy!
Although the sect master had known that Qinglian had a disagreement on the sword codex, he didn't expect the disagreement to be so serious, after the vice president unfortunately fell to the Golden Cloud Peak, some people simply didn't even want the sword codex!
That is the supreme treasure of Qinglian Academy's inheritance of 2,000 years, the foundation of the school, and the profound and mysterious aspects of it are even no less than the inheritance of the Holy Sect.
And the sect leader Yu Guang glanced around, only to see another man and two women sitting around the conference table, also with a dull face, it can be seen that the restoration of the sword code is not Shang Miaoyu's arbitrary behavior, but has been unanimously opposed by the four elders.
This made the Holy Sect Sect Master, who had come with great ambition, look extremely embarrassed, especially when Wang Jiuzheng looked at the scene with a curious expression, full of interest in this unexpected situation.
It was not easy for the sect master to say that he would move the savior sword spirit to restore the sword code and complete the inheritance of the three courtyards, but as a result, the Qinglian Academy's own family became a hindrance...... It's incredible.
In the past few hundred years, Qinglian Academy and Wuxiang Sword Academy, around the word Sword Academy, there have been countless dragon fights, both courts insist that their own family is the supreme of the sword, and the other family is crooked, and only one of the three courts in the name of the sword is needed. Therefore, daily friction and fighting continue, and from time to time I have to bet on the signboard of the Sword Academy to fight a dark battle.
Fortunately, there is also the Holy Sect above the Three Courtyards, and under the maintenance of the Holy Sect, the battle between the Qinglian Academy and the Wuxiang Sword Academy has never crossed the line, and there have been any human life tragedies, but usually a large-scale competition will be held in ten or twenty years to determine the ownership of the word Sword Academy.
In the past fifty years, it was the era when the power of the Wuxiang Sword Academy was rising and the Qinglian Academy fell into a trough, and several battles of the Sword Academy ended in a complete victory for the Wuxiang Sword Academy, so there was no Qinglian Sword Academy in the world, and in front of the public, there was only the Qinglian Academy.
In this regard, Qinglian people are deeply ashamed, and they have been lying on their backs for decades, waiting for the opportunity for revenge. The previous two presidents and vice presidents, Sang Yue and Sang Jing, were also willing to take the risk to go deep into the ruins of the flood in order to seek a breakthrough.
In order to regain the signboard of the Sword Academy, the Qinglian people can even ignore their lives, why do they choose to give up now that they have a great opportunity to regain the Sword Codex?
"Because, from the very beginning, there were only a few people who were particularly enthusiastic, Sect Master, you usually have the most contact with Dean Sang and them, so you mistakenly thought that the attitude of the two of them was the attitude of the entire academy, but in fact it was not like that. Fighting around with the people of the Phaseless Sword Academy all day long, we are really annoyed already. ”
After Shang said the witty words, he got a direct response from the others.
"Yes, Sect Master, we actually don't want to cling to this kind of meaningless battle for a long time, Qinglian and Wuxiang, it is true that the latter is more good at swordsmanship. The two academies have been established for more than 2,000 years, and the dispute between the two academies began for the first time 1,100 years ago, and the dispute between the sword academies began for the first time 800 years ago. In the past 200 years, there have been as long as 160 years of the Wuxiang Sword Academy occupying the name of the Sword Academy. I think that's pretty telling. ”
When the sect master heard this, his mood was really complicated.
The dispute between the Sword Academy, in fact, is also very meaningless in the eyes of the Holy Sect, it is purely a superfluous internal friction between the three courts, but as long as the competition is controlled within a benign range, it can stimulate the forward momentum of the two factions, which is also a good thing. It's just that compared to the Wuxiang Sword Academy, which focuses on swordsmanship, Qinglian Academy, which is inclusive of all rivers and draws on the strengths of all families, is indeed difficult to gain an advantage in a single kendo item, especially with the continuous development of the immortal cultivation civilization, the gap between the two is getting bigger and bigger. The dispute between the Sword Academy and the Sword Academy can come to an end, which is also in line with the laws of history.
But the battle of the Sword Academy can be ended, but the Qinglian Sword Book should not be lost, after all, it is the legacy of the mysterious supernatural power.
"Sect Master, forgive me for being rude, but for a sect, three courtyards, and seven families, is the inheritance of the flood really that precious?" Shang Miaoyu asked, "Which of our families doesn't have the Flood Inheritance in our hands now?" There are four volumes of treasure books here in our academy alone, and the Sword Book is just one of them. ”
The sect master hurriedly added: "It is the book with the highest status and the most mysterious powers. ”
Shang Miaoyu said: "For the current Xiangzhou, the level of the flood heritage can be described as unattainable, it is infinite plus one or is infinite, there is no difference for us, the existing few volumes of the treasure book are enough for us to study for hundreds of years, and there is no need to add a more exquisite Qinglian Sword Book to distract our energy - Sect Master, if you compare it with the classics alone, the Qinglian Sword Book is definitely not inferior to the Wuxiang Sword Codex, but the battle of the Sword Academy Qinglian people have lost more and won less, just because their energy is too scattered. Now that we can concentrate on the other few volumes, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages for us. ”
These words were undoubtedly very reasonable, so much so that the sect master couldn't refute them for a while. But at this moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly guessed the reason behind the abnormality of Qinglian Academy.
"Concentrate on the study...... I'm afraid that for you, the most important thing to focus on is not energy, but budget! ”
As soon as the sect master finished saying this, he immediately saw four faces with slightly changed expressions.
This undisguised expression made the sect master angry and funny: "A few of you, after the unfortunate death of the vice president, you are the supreme person in charge of Qinglian Academy, but now none of you are thinking about the overall interests of the academy, but thinking about the budget that can be divided in this vein after the Sword Classic inheritance is eliminated!?" ”
Before the words fell, he heard Shang Xianyu sigh: "It is precisely for the sake of overall interests that we suggest giving up the Qinglian Sword Book and the inheritance of this lineage and concentrating on other fields. The Sect Master should know that the research funding needs of the Qinglian Sword Academy are the largest among the three academies, and relying on their own industry alone is far from enough to support our consumption. Every year, we have to accept funding from various parties in order to move forward with the research at hand. And of course, these funders can't be unwanted, single-minded. They have always had requirements for the research of Qinglian Academy, and in the past period of time, the research of Qinglian Sword Dictionary has never been able to satisfy the sponsors, not long ago the sponsors made it clear that with the same amount of resources, instead of funding the research of Qinglian Sword Classics, it is better to directly fund the Wuxiang Sword Academy. However, in the past few decades, we have always taken the Sword Dictionary as the leader, and often transferred manpower from other projects in the past, which has made many funders distrust our subject research, and dragged down by this, the research funds of the entire Qinglian Academy have encountered a crisis, in this case, what is wrong with giving up the Sword Codex? ”
“……”
"What's more, judging from the overall pattern of one case and three hospitals in Xiangzhou, the three hospitals had their own strengths and performed their duties when they were founded. Among them, the Tiangong Academy is responsible for the implementation and deployment of the Xiangzhou Strategic Project, the Qinglian Academy specializes in the innovation and improvement of the theory of immortal law, and then the Wuxiang Sword Academy is the standard martial arts faction, which was once known as the sword of the Holy Sect. Now that Qinglian has given up the Sword Codex, it is just a return to her own strengths. Rather than dancing with knives and guns, we prefer dancing with ink. ”
“…… Since you like dancing and writing so much, why was it the sword book holder who was elected when the dean was elected? ”
Shang Miaoyu said: "Why did the sect master knowingly ask, of course, because we couldn't beat any of their sisters together, they said that they wanted to be the dean, and we could only shout hello to the dean." ”
"That's a good point, then I'll give up the sword code restoration and go home."
Shang Miaoyu said, "Then I won't leave you for lunch." ”
Before the words fell, I saw a sneer on the sect master's face: "Of course you don't dare to keep me for lunch, if I stay for a while, you won't be able to hide your traces, right, Zhao Shenlu?" ”
Shang Miaoyu froze when she heard this, and after a while, she sighed, stretched out her hand and wiped it on her face, her figure suddenly grew a little, and she became graceful and moving, and her raunchy face was also replaced by Zhao Shenlu's peerless appearance.
"Old man, your eyesight is really good."
The sect master snorted coldly: "Don't dare to be, until just now I didn't see your reputation for camouflage illusion." ”
With the eyesight of this first person in Xiangzhou Immortal Dao, even the illusionary sword technique of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword seemed to him to have traces to follow, but if it wasn't for Shang Miaoyu's talk just now, he really didn't see that it was Zhao Shenlu's disguise!
Zhao Shenlu smiled proudly: "Of course you can't see it, because it's not an illusion, but the downward compatibility of appearance, which belongs to the natural principle of heaven and earth, and people with good looks like you won't understand." ”
The sect master, who was suppressed by his appearance, resisted the desire to make a move and turned the topic back to the topic.
"The funding problem of Qinglian Academy, in the final analysis, is that you are playing tricks!?" As he spoke, the sect master turned his head to look at the second-ranked Qinglian Elder Feng Xiaolu, "I warned you before, don't rashly accept the funding from Golden Jade City!" ”
Feng Xiaolu, who looked like a girl, blinked: "We didn't accept it......"
Zhao Shenlu said: "Of course I found an agent, after all, this kind of thing that can restrain the three courtyards cannot be done by the head of the Seven Great Families in public." But now that you have found out, I have something to say, as a sponsor, I do not support Qinglian Academy's restoration of the Sword Codex. ”
The sect master sneered: "Without your Golden Jade City's money, can Qinglian Academy still be able to open the pot?" ”
The second elder Feng Xiaolu suddenly showed a look of embarrassment: "Sect Master, in fact, Qinglian's financial situation has always been ......."
"Enough is enough, needless to say!" The Sect Master immediately decided, "Your funding gap will be figured out by the Holy Sect!" I won't let your research be interrupted! ”
Zhao Shenlu said: "Don't believe this old man's blowing, I have seen the Holy Sect's Yulin Huajiang treasury, and I have also explored the treasury of Wanxiangyuan, and the Holy Sect will definitely not be able to take out so much money now!" ”
