Edit: On further thought, there might be an issue with the Fire Lord being subject to another woman that isn't God. Officially, I mean. Would have to do some creative explaining.
J: Oh yeah about that cult of yours i think it need a bit of... update? You know fire martial arts are good and all, but its not profitable enough those days. If we would have proper infrastructure for establishing metallurgy industry it still could be enough, but lack of concessions for ore mining here is problem. Fear not my friend i got a quick solution to our financial shortcomings. My wife Quilin...
V: That miao girl?
J: Yes that miao looking girl, so her father is working in... em human resources dealing branch, information management and law advisor. You would be shocked how many times they solved legal disputes. Either way was thinking that this temple could provide labour and produce fire powder related things. Explosives and something for entertainment, you know how children like laud things. Quilin and I think we could call them FIREWORKS! Think about advertisement possibilities! If we play our weiqi pieces right we not only make huge profits, we would change the way Tang see fire cult. Course there will be need of PR related changes.
V: What changes?
J: We would need proper spokesperson, gain trade concessions shouldn't be problem i know the right people to quicken the process and change of signs and banners...
V: WHAT!?
J: Yeah i know its eternal flame and so on, but Tang is profitable sales market i got connections in and they dont remember your signs fondly. So the banners must go, if we wish to gain positive brand recognition i already ordered new design...
V: What design?
J: Its One eyed serpent with burning eyes...
V: YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING!
J: Bros and Sisters i know what you are concerned with, still think about it the banner of the burning one-eyed serpent fluttering proudly in the breeze, surrounded by hundreds of followers of eternal flame guidance.
V: ...
J: Preservation of best parts of old ways, combined with adaptation to today world.
V: NO!
J: Come on. Old order must be dissolved into chaos to bring forth New order of thingies. Even last Fire Lord found this correct. Look at how much power it gave him in his prime.
V: I cant believe we even consider that.
J: What can go wrong with this set up? I even got Wudu cult acceptance already.
V: Wait what?
J: Nothing at all. Lets go, fire maiden is waiting. Lets not talk about business, at ceremony.

Visionary way is creative enough? Using our predecessor could be worthwhile.
Wudu sect is pragmatic, if Jing will keep bring big profits and opportunities they should be receptive. Course as long as Jing will marry Quilin officially. Marriage isn't negotiable, only time when it happen.
