The Fourth Financial Crisis

It was precisely because Qishan Prison had a strong background that Yang Lu was so surprised when he heard that Lu Anping had become an inmate of Qishan Prison.

However, Fang Jiancai explained with no surprise on his face: "Although Lu Anping is the inner deacon of the Wuliang Sword Sect's Du branch, there are at least thousands of inner deacons like him in the Wuliang Sword Sect. If we add other deacons, If the inner sect deacons of the six sects add up, tens of thousands of people might not be able to stop him. If according to the usual practice, he is definitely not qualified to work in Qishan Prison, but now the leader Lin is trying to knock on the mountain to frighten the tiger. The supreme elder of the branch, Mo Yunlan, is why we staged this drama of killing a chicken to scare the monkey!"

Yang Lu couldn't help but complain: "So, does Deacon Lu go to Qishan Prison for a high ranking?"

"Isn't it?" Fang Jiancai couldn't help laughing after hearing the hell joke about Lu Anping, "There is a joke within our Wuliang Sword Sect that there are actually eight sects in the Jiuzhou cultivation world. This eighth largest sect The sect is not in the Arctic Cold Palace, but is imprisoned in Qishan Prison by the seven major sects. Even if the Wuliang Sword Sect is destroyed by the devil from outside the world one day, as long as the people in Qishan Prison are released, they can immediately put together a set The backup version of the Wuliang Sword Sect has everything from the Supreme Elder at the Nascent Soul Stage to the Deacon at the Foundation Establishment Stage."

Yang Lu did not ask Fang Jiancai why there were no Qi Refining Stage monks in Qishan Prison.

As the only cultivator prison in the Jiuzhou cultivation world, the criminals who can be imprisoned in Qishan Prison are all powerful people. Ordinary Qi Refining Stage monks are not qualified to be imprisoned at all.

Yang Lu usually didn't have many opportunities to interact with the Wuliang Sword Sect. Fang Jian was one of the few core members of the Wuliang Sword Sect in his circle of friends. When Fang Jiancai took the initiative to talk about gossip, Yang Lu also became interested in in-depth exchanges. He asked: "I only know that Wang Sandao, the leader of the Spirit Tribe, is imprisoned in Qishan Prison. I wonder if there are any other famous inmates in Qishan Prison?"

"There are not too many big names in the cultivation world who are imprisoned in Qishan Prison!" When introducing the famous people in Qishan Prison, the veteran Wuliang Sword Sect can be said to be familiar with them. "The most famous inmate is Ma Tianyi Zhang. The sect’s registered disciple is Senior Mingzhu. It is said that Senior Mingzhu once protected President Lu Yang on battlefields outside the territory and won the trust of Sect Master Ma and several Supreme Elders. However, for some unknown reason, shortly after Governor Lu ascended to the heaven, he committed a crime. He committed a serious crime of disobedience to the sect and was put under house arrest by the sect's senior officials. After the completion of Qishan Prison, he was regarded as the first batch of criminals and imprisoned together with Wang Sandao. According to my colleagues who worked in Qishan Prison, , now this person has cultivated in Qishan Prison to the stage of Golden Elixir Dzogchen..."

Senior Mingzhu?

Yang Lu vaguely remembered that Lin Dong, the direct disciple of the Wuliang Sword Sect who was killed by him in the Outlying Island War, was taught by this senior Mingzhu. Unexpectedly, Lin Dong's ancestor was not dead yet, but in Qishan Prison. It's office!

Moreover, this guy has not been idle even in prison, and he has actually cultivated to the level of Golden Elixir Great Perfection!

Yang Lu smiled awkwardly but politely, and continued to ask: "Are there any other famous inmates in Qishan Prison?"

"Except for the most famous Wang Sandao and Mingzhu, they should be the prisoners of war of the Guiyi Sect's civil war!" Fang Jiancai pondered for a moment and came up with another typical case, "You should also know that the overlord of the Donghuang State is the Guiyi Sect. Internally, the worldly faction and the worldly faction have been vendetta against each other for thousands of years, and even President Lu failed to successfully mediate the conflict between the two factions."

"I've heard of this, but what does it have to do with Qishan Prison?"

"Of course it does matter! After all, monks from the same sect are killing each other all day long. What they lack most is merit. Since the completion of Qishan Prison, the two factions will deduct some merit in order to save the high-level monks of the other party after they catch them. Sending people to Qishan Prison for permanent detention, and now caring for prisoners of war in Donghuang Prefecture, has become the main profit-making project of Qishan Prison."

"How can Qishan Prison still be profitable?" Yang Lu had only heard that the prisons of the US imperialists were profit-making institutions. He did not expect that there were also profit-making prisons in the cultivation world.

However, Fang Jiancai replied matter-of-factly: "If Qishan Prison loses a lot of money all year round, the Wuliang Sword Sect, even if it takes into account the opinions of the Ascending Immortal, will get rid of Wang Sandao for the sake of the sect's finances. I heard from the gossip It is said that Qishan Prison has been able to achieve its own profit-and-loss balance decades ago. The only problem is that there are probably more monks from Donghuang Prefecture in Qishan Prison now than from the other major states combined."

Yang Lu originally wanted to complain about this for-profit prison.

However, considering that the cultivators in the Jiuzhou cultivation world are all those who have no profit and cannot afford to be early, he was stunned and did not complain in the end.

Fang Jian had just started talking and was about to talk more about the gossip of Qishan Prison when he saw a fierce golden light coming from the horizon, so he quickly stopped and said: "Don't talk about this now, I'm afraid Liu Hanxing has already coming!"

Before Jiancai finished speaking, he saw a golden light falling on the center of the crowd. After the light dissipated, a monk with sword-browed eyebrows and starry eyes was revealed. He was the current vice president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank and a star of the Infinite Sword Sect. Boss Liu Hanxing!

After Liu Hanxing appeared, the whispers at the scene seemed to have been pressed on the pause button, and there was suddenly silence.

The lord of Haiya City, Jiang Hua'an, who was dressed as a rich man, immediately stepped forward, exchanged warm greetings and said: "Fellow Daoist Liu, since we parted ways at the Haiya City Immortal Ascension Conference, we haven't seen each other for almost two years! I really didn't expect that. Ah, you and I actually have a chance to meet again in Haiya City."

In such a public place, Jiang Hua'an should address Liu Hanxing as President Liu, but Jiang Hua'an did not address the other party by his official position, but chose to address him as a Taoist friend, which was obviously intentional.

Seeing Jiang Hua'an who looked like a smiling tiger, Liu Hanxing smiled and said, "I am here to visit Haiya City on the order of the senior officials of Wuliang Sword Sect. I need City Lord Jiang to cooperate with me in my work!"

Jiang Hua'an seemed not to have heard the implication of Liu Hanxing's words. He pointed at the guests who came to greet him and said with a smile: "In order to welcome Fellow Daoist Liu, our Haiya City cultivation world can be said to have put out all its best. If we don't Even if I have to cooperate with the orders from the top of the Wuliang Sword Sect, I really don’t know how I can do it better!”

Liu Hanxing looked at the melon-eaters with different expressions and said seriously: "The reform of Zhongzhou's social security system will be a major event that completely changes the historical process of Zhongzhou. As the first batch of cities to participate in the pilot project, Haiya City has a heavy responsibility and a glorious mission. , I only hope that City Lord Jiang and fellow Taoists in Haiya City will seize the historical opportunity and never try to go against the trend of history."

Liu Hanxing spoke loudly, and it was obvious that he was not speaking to Jiang Hua'an alone.

Everyone present had different expressions when they heard Liu Hanxing's seemingly high-profile words, which were actually secret threats.

Fang Jiancai, who was next to Yang Lu, chuckled and said, "When it comes to going against the trend, who can be better than our leader Lin? For their own personal interests, these guys don't even hesitate to attack vassal sects. He did something dirty, but now he can still teach everyone to be honest and obedient here. This guy surnamed Liu really knows how to sing high-pitched words..."

Tianshu City was almost destroyed by Liu Hanxing's conspiracy back then, so it's strange that Cai Cai was so angry with this person!

"Haiya Department will always stand on the right side of the historical trend!" Faced with Liu Hanxing's threat, Jiang Hua'an just gave an ambiguous answer, and then changed the subject, "By the way, I heard that Zhongzhou Society There has been a lot of noise recently in the pilot reform of the security system. The reform pilot work in Yaoguang City even appeared on the front page of "Xu Zhen Financial Weekly". Governor Liu is the top person in charge of this reform. I don't know if you are rushing. Did you hear anything on the way here?”

Originally, when Jiang Hua'an was polite to Liu Hanxing, he always spoke at a normal volume, but when Jiang Hua'an mentioned Yaoguang City, he obviously deliberately raised his volume, as if he was afraid that the people around him could not hear clearly.
