Just when Gu Shijiu was feeling happy, he suddenly heard Luo Chuan calling him.

"Little Master, Little Master, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

Gu Shijiu asked curiously.

"The Escort Agency is spending a lot of money to buy the Evil-Suppressing Iron. The entire Hengdao County's Evil-Suppressing Iron has probably been bought out by the Escort Agency."

Luo Chuan said anxiously.

"I know, what does this have to do with us?"

Gu Shijiu seemed to be at a loss, somewhat bewildered.

"It's a big deal. Although the value of the evil-suppressing iron is not expensive, one kilogram of it still costs several low-level crystal stones. The escort agency has purchased hundreds of thousands of kilograms of evil-suppressing iron. I'm guessing the escort agency has been emptied out."

"People down there are saying that the escort agency is now an empty shell. Many of the outer disciples and menial disciples are afraid that they won't be able to settle their crystals, so they're leaving the agency."

Luo Chuan said hurriedly.

"Are there any inner disciples who want to leave?"

Gu Nineteen said with a smile.

"I haven't heard of it for the inner sect. It's mainly because menial disciples and outer disciples have monthly salary settlements, but inner sect disciples don't have monthly salary settlements."

"Hahaha, then tell me, how much is the monthly salary for menial disciples? And how much is the monthly salary for outer disciples?"

Gu Shijiu asked with a smile, and Luo Chuan began to speak hesitantly:

"The monthly salary for menial disciples is 10 taels of silver, and the salary for outer disciples is calculated based on their rank. The first rank is 50 taels of silver, the second rank is 10 taels of gold, the third rank is 10 low-level crystals, the fourth rank is 10 mid-level crystals, and the fifth rank is 10 high-level crystals..."

Gu Shijiu pointed at Luo Chuan's head and asked:

"That's just a few bucks. No matter how poor the escort agency is, it won't hurt these people's interests. Don't worry."

Luo Chuan seemed to suddenly realize something, and said to Gu Shijiu:

"I understand, young master. Someone must be trying to take advantage of this opportunity to stir up trouble and bring down our escort agency!"

"Hahaha, you don't believe me when I say you're stupid. You think you can destroy the escort agency with this little trick? Our enemies are too weak."

"This is obviously a plan made by the top management of the escort agency to reorganize the agency. To be honest, this plan is full of loopholes and cannot withstand careful scrutiny."

Gu Shijiu finished speaking with a smile, and then continued:

"But this strategy only works against some people. Those who are not in agreement with the branch will definitely be exposed."

Luo Chuan nodded, not quite understanding.

"So what should we do now? Should we just keep the status quo?"

Gu Shijiu looked at the puzzled Luo Chuan and asked.

"Wait, we'll just follow the escort agency's next move and wait and see."

Watching Luo Chuan leave with confusion, Gu Shijiu couldn't help but smile.

Then he continued to immerse himself in his sword practice.

The next morning.

"Bang bang bang."

Before Gu Shijiu got up, he heard someone knocking on his door.

"Sleep, come in."

Gu Shijiu called out lazily.

Just after he finished shouting, he saw Luo Chuan push the door open and said to Gu Shijiu:

"Young Master, this is not good."

"what happened?"

Gu Shijiu was confused and had no idea what was going on.

"Young Master, King Dusha Dubiao summoned all the inner disciples, inner elders, inner elders, and escort kings to the meeting hall to discuss matters."

"Oh, I see. I'll go right away."

Gu Shijiu showed an interested expression and quickly got out of bed.

Without explaining to the confused Luochuan, he walked straight towards the meeting room.

When Gu Shijiu walked into the conference room, there were inner disciples wearing green shirts standing densely outside the room.

Gu Shijiu looked at the white robe that had just been distributed to him a few days ago and walked directly into the meeting room.

The meeting room was now filled with hundreds of people, most of whom were inner sect elders in white robes.

There are more than ten other blue-robed inner sect elders.

Du Sha Du Biao Wang and Li Wuqing Li Biao Wang sat in the first seat.

After waiting for another half an incense stick of time, Du Sha glanced at the people sitting below and slowly said:

"You all should have heard that the dynasty asked us to hand over one million kilograms of evil-suppressing iron. You should all know how much one million kilograms of evil-suppressing iron is worth."

Li Wuqing waved his hand to interrupt Du Sha who was about to continue speaking, and said directly:

"I won't beat around the bush. To put it simply, the escort agency is short of money. After collecting the evil-suppressing iron, we need to make it into weapons. One million kilograms of evil-suppressing iron means ten thousand weapons. The escort agency has paid for this."

"But the problem now is that we are still short of 400,000 kilograms of Evil-Suppressing Iron, and we need everyone to raise funds."

The people below were discussing something. An inner sect elder spoke up and asked:

"May I ask King Du Biao and King Li Biao how much do we need to pay?"

Du Sha said:

"After careful calculation, we have given all the inner sect disciples a low-level crystal stone, regardless of the type."

"Each porter will receive ten low-level crystals, regardless of type."

"Inner sect elders, one thousand low-level crystals, regardless of type."

"The Inner Sect's Great Elder, 10,000 low-level crystal stones, regardless of type."

"As for me and King Li Biao, each of us will provide 100,000 low-level crystals, regardless of type."

"Of course, in principle, the more the better."

After Du Sha finished speaking, the inner sect elder asked again:

"King Du Biao, what if we don't have so many crystals?"

"Hahaha, of course there is a way. One way is to allow us to send this escort mission. No matter who it is, all participants are exempt from donations. It will be considered as a reward."

"The second is to quit the escort agency and leave Hengdao Escort Agency forever. It's that simple."

After Du Sha finished speaking, everyone started discussing the matter in different ways.

Looking at the expressions of the crowd, Gu Shijiu smiled, stood up, and said softly:

"Lord Du, I am Gu Nineteen, a disciple of Great Elder Jiang Heng."

Du Sha glanced at Gu Shijiu, smiled and nodded:

"I know you, Nineteen. Just say whatever you want to say. By the way, don't worry about your master's share or yours. I'll pay for them."

Gu Shijiu quickly waved his hand and said:

"That's not what I meant, King Du Biao. What I meant was that Master gave me a batch of low-level crystals before he went into seclusion. Together with my own, I barely have 30,000 pieces. I will pay for it today, and it will be counted as the share between Master and me."

"Also, you may not know that my master gained a lot of insights during the battle with the Sun family a few days ago. He has gone into seclusion and will break through to the fifth level soon."

"Everyone knows my master's personality. Hehe, if he wasn't in seclusion, he would definitely participate in this operation."

"As the saying goes, if the master is busy, the disciple should do the hard work. I will take the lead in signing up for this escort mission. King Du must reserve a place for me."

After saying that, Gu Shijiu smiled and sat down.

Du Sha looked at Gu Shijiu, smiled and nodded:

"Okay, okay, an excellent teacher produces excellent students. Nineteen, right? I didn't bring shame to your master."

Just as Du Sha finished speaking, a young man in a brand new white robe stood up and said to Du Sha:

"Disciple Lin Zhong, Master Li Jingang left behind 37,000 low-level crystals, and I have 1,000 crystals, a total of 38,000 low-level crystals, which I will now hand over in full."

"In addition, I have just entered the third level, and I feel that I will not be a drag on the escort agency, so I am applying for this mission. I hope that King Du can reserve a position for me."

After Lin Zhong finished speaking, he looked straight at Du Sha.

Du Sha sighed and said, "You blame me for what happened to your master Li Jingang. I am sorry for you. I cannot accept this crystal stone. You can be included in the escort this time. I will definitely protect you."

"These crystals were handed over to the escort agency. It should be regarded as the master's wish. I cannot accept them without authorization. I feel guilty about it. Please use them for the escort agency, King Du."

After Lin Zhong finished speaking, he looked at Du Sha, who nodded and said:

"Okay, then I'll accept it on behalf of the escort agency."
