Chapter 20 Winning People Over with Virtue
Li Dongze quickly returned to his desk, vigorously rubbed his hands, and excitedly turned on his computer to edit a message.
"Centurion Fu, this subordinate has something to report. I just received news that the Night Walker I recruited has successfully passed the trial mission and returned to reality. Yes, he has successfully cleared the Sheling Tunnel."
Click. Send.
In the White Tiger Garrison's system, subordinates are not allowed to call their superiors directly unless it is an extremely urgent matter. Usually, they report via email or message.
Yuan Shi clearing the Sheling Tunnel was a big deal, but not an urgent one.
A dozen seconds after the message was sent, Li Dongze's phone on the desk rang. The caller ID showed Centurion Fu.
Calling directly? Li Dongze immediately grabbed the phone and answered.
"Li Dongze, you will be held responsible for your words."
A young man's cold voice came from the speaker, enunciating each word clearly.
"Centurion, this matter is indeed surprising." Facing the centurion's warning, Li Dongze was very relaxed, "I just finished a call with him."
"Is there a guide?" Fu Qingyang asked immediately.
"I'll need to wait a moment."
Centurion Fu was silent for a few seconds, his cold tone softened, and he said:
"I didn't have any expectations, but I received a pleasant surprise. This person can clear the Sheling Tunnel. He must have something extraordinary.
"Li Dongze, you have recruited talent for the White Tiger Garrison. I will report it to the Elders and credit you with a great merit."
Oh God, this is wonderful....... The smile on Li Dongze's face widened, then he thought of something, and lowered his voice:
"Does this need to be kept secret?"
The fact that he recruited a Night Walker was no longer a secret among the team leaders in the Kangyang District. Even if he deliberately didn't mention it later, people would notice it after a long time.
It can't be concealed for too long.
Especially since the Five Elements Alliance and the Taiyi Sect had signed an agreement that the Taiyi Sect had the priority to select Night Walkers that appeared throughout the country.
This agreement led to the Five Elements Alliance having almost no Night Walkers of their own, only a few scattered ones.
Fu Qingyang sneered:
"Why keep it a secret? The Taiyi Sect has clearly stated that they don't want this Night Walker. They can't go back on their word.
"What you need to guard against is the people within the Five Elements Alliance. I don't want the incident at the Hundred Flowers Association to happen again. We must subdue him with virtue."
This was in line with Li Dongze's thoughts. He immediately asked for guidance humbly: "Please advise, Centurion Fu."
"Promote him to full-time and give him a raise."
Ah? A raise?
Is this subduing him with virtue?
"I don't like using money to buy people's hearts, because those who gather for profit will disperse for profit. I prefer to subdue people with virtue, but virtue takes time to show, while money has an immediate effect."
Centurion Fu said calmly: "Have him write a guide as soon as possible. I want to know the core information of the Mountain God Temple. By the way, pay back the Taiyi Sect's favor."
Any S-level spirit realm must contain some valuable information and intelligence that ordinary spirit realms cannot compare with.
"Understood!"
Li Dongze ended the call.
What kind of subduing with virtue is this, but this is indeed the style of the Fu family....... Li Dongze shook his head.
This young Master Fu's family went abroad to develop in turbulent times to avoid the flames of war. After a hundred years of operation, they had grown into a huge capital giant.
Later, the Fu family accepted the olive branch thrown by the country and returned to China with a large amount of wealth to participate in economic construction.
The Fu family was not only a huge capital, but also a family of Spirit Realm Walkers passed down through generations. A certain number of Scouts would appear in the family every year.
They were an important family force in the White Tiger Garrison.
Centurion Fu was young but proficient in all kinds of "money abilities" and was jokingly called the Money Prince among the Four Young Masters of the official organization.
At this time, Li Dongze saw someone @ himself in the "Kangyang District Spirit Realm Walker Management Group".
Qingteng: "@Li Dongze, Squad Leader Li, how is your newly recruited Night Walker doing?"
Qingteng was the captain of the Hundred Flowers Association. If any other tree demon asked this question, Li Dongze would suspect that they had ulterior motives.
But this female captain had a gentle and kind personality and was not the kind of shameless and promiscuous woman.
Bailong: "Wow, that's hitting him where it hurts. Knowing that no one could clear the Sheling Tunnel, you still want to mock Squad Leader Li?"
Before Li Dongze could speak, Bailong, who had a feud with Qingteng, took the lead in starting a fight.
Big Muscle: "He must have died in the Sheling Tunnel. Yesterday, someone in my jurisdiction also went missing in the Sheling Tunnel. The poor wretch hasn't been found yet. He's basically dead in the spirit realm."
The straightforward fire master was still so annoying.
Apart from these three captains who were more active, no one else spoke, as if they had lost interest in the matter.
My fellows, you will be jealous of me, in just a second! Li Dongze casually sent a big red envelope of 1000 yuan.
He grabbed the first one himself and got five yuan.
Qingteng: "Thank you, Boss."
Bailong: "The boss is generous."
Big Muscle: "The boss has a good waist and strong kidneys."
The few of them instinctively grabbed the red envelope and thanked him, completing the process, and then suddenly realized.......
Bailong: "No way?"
Big Muscle: "Li Dongze, what do you mean? Make it clear."
Qingteng: "Squad Leader Li?"
Li Dongze: "Thank you for your concern. The Night Walker I newly recruited successfully cleared the Sheling Tunnel."
The group suddenly went silent, as if everyone had been muted.
Yuan Ting: "Li Dongze, don't joke around."
The Night Walker from the Taiyi Sect, who didn't usually show his face in the Five Elements Alliance management group, took the lead in showing his face.
Unlike the other captains, he couldn't ignore Li Dongze's message regarding a major event concerning his profession, even if there was a greater possibility that he was joking.
The other captains still didn't speak, silently waiting for Li Dongze to reply.
At this time, Centurion Fu sent a message in the group:
"From today onwards, the first clear of the Sheling Tunnel belongs to our Five Elements Alliance. Later, I will synchronize the spirit realm guide to the information database. As an S-level trial spirit realm, it can produce Night Walkers of higher quality than other spirit realms. I believe it will be of great help to the organization's Night Walker training plan."
Looking at this long text, the captains were dumbfounded.
Centurion Fu was an executive-level figure. His words carried more weight than Li Dongze's. Since he said so, this matter must be true.
The Sheling Tunnel was really cleared? What kind of freak did Li Dongze recruit?
At this moment, the captains suddenly realized the value of the newcomer. He was no longer just a "rare profession". He himself might be the most worthy of investment.
Big Muscle: "I want to organize a team-building activity again."
You want to poach my talent, right..... The corner of Li Dongze's mouth twitched.
Water Strider: "I won't be running boats this month. Let's arrange a gathering, how about today?"
Tang Guoqiang sent a red envelope.
Bailong: "A gathering is fine, but I don't think the Hundred Flowers Association should participate."
Qingteng: "Hehe."
Fist King: "I'm very curious how that newcomer cleared the Sheling Tunnel. Someone who can do this is probably not an ordinary person. Li Dongze is lucky to have recruited talent."
Seeing the "wavering hearts" in the group, Centurion Fu sent another message: "I will use the Sheling Tunnel guide as a bargaining chip to fight for Night Walker quotas from the Taiyi Sect, and try to equip each of your teams with a Night Walker within five years."
Qingteng: "Thank you, Centurion Fu."
Big Muscle: "Holy shit, there's such a good thing."
The atmosphere in the group suddenly became lively.
The centurion's move is brilliant. With this pie....... Li Dongze breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, several captains enthusiastically discussed the long-term plan of training and allocating Night Walkers, and inquired about the hero who got the first clear from Li Dongze, both overtly and covertly.
Was he a man or a woman, and how old was he?
But Li Dongze just wouldn't tell them.
While the captains were discussing happily, Yuan Ting of the Taiyi Sect was in a completely different mood.
He stared blankly at Centurion Fu's speech, reading it over and over again, and finally allowed himself to digest this major event.
The Sheling Tunnel, which even the Taiyi Sect was helpless with, had been cleared?
How did that newbie do it?
As a spirit realm of his profession, as a Night Walker, he was more eager to know the truth than other captains, and he felt as uncomfortable as if hundreds of claws were scratching his heart.
But now was not the time to dwell on the truth. He had to report this matter to the organization.
Shouldn't such an excellent Night Walker join the Taiyi Sect?
Elder Sun was confused. How could he make promises so casually, causing the Taiyi Sect to lose a talent in vain! Yuan Ting felt a little resentment towards that elder in his heart.
.......
Zhang Yuanqing took a taxi to the police station, skillfully went around to the back of the building, and entered the glass building full of elite vibes.
Climbing to the second floor, he immediately saw the mixed-race beauty sitting on the sofa drinking tea, with supermodel-like long legs crossed, in a shirt, skirt suit, black silk stockings, and high heels.
Her waist was slender and her chest was full, her makeup was exquisite and her hairstyle was fashionable. If a workplace goddess needed a standard image, Zhang Yuanqing felt that she was it.
Fortunately, his aesthetic threshold had been trained to a very high degree by his little aunt. He greeted her without changing his expression:
"Sister Guan Ya."
Guan Ya put down her teacup, got up to greet him, and said with a smile:
"Tsk tsk, I thought our college student was a little puppy, but I didn't expect you to be a little wolfdog. Congratulations on becoming a Night Walker. Sister will reward you with a hug."
She opened her arms, her chest was magnificent.
Zhang Yuanqing, who had initially figured out the other party's personality, didn't fall for it and sneered: "Demoness, how dare you humiliate me!"
If it was any other girl, Zhang Yuanqing would definitely not say such a thing, but Guan Ya was an experienced driver. Stepping on the gas pedal was the right way to interact with her.
Guan Ya was stunned for a moment, then giggled and said:
"Let's go, the Squad Leader wants to see you."
After taking a few steps, she suddenly turned back and smiled faintly:
"You gained a lot in the spirit realm, right. No, you don't need to tell me. Hiding your strength and methods is a necessary quality for every Spirit Realm Walker."
I didn't want to tell you. Zhang Yuanqing was stunned, and then he realized that she meant for him to appropriately keep secrets and not reveal all his cards.
Following Guan Ya, Zhang Yuanqing entered the luxurious office again and saw Li Dongze comfortably lying on the soft chair with a cigar in his hand.
"Do you know what I'm most worried about now?"
Li Dongze got up and walked towards the reception sofa, while looking at Zhang Yuanqing.
"What?" Zhang Yuanqing asked cooperatively.
"I'm most worried about you being hijacked on the way here." Li Dongze opened the wine cabinet and took out three glasses, and said: "What do you want to drink?"
"Coke!"
Zhang Yuanqing replied.
"Guan Ya, have someone go buy it." Li Dongze immediately ordered.
Not bad, the status has improved significantly...... Zhang Yuanqing followed Li Dongze and sat down. The latter took a sip of wine and went straight to the point:
"You are a force to be reckoned with. You did very well.
"I'll need you to write a detailed guide later, but before that, I want to ask, did you find any unusual information in the Mountain God Temple?"
......
