The Fourth Financial Crisis

"Deacon Yang, no matter what, you have to seek an explanation for us this time!"

In the luxurious office of Wuliangjian's special trade representative stationed in Haiya City, Zhu Ziming, the head of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce, was complaining to his "big backer" Yang Chenglong about the shameless behavior of the Haiya Clan.

After negotiating with Haiya Bank to no avail, Zhu Ziming knew that if he went to the Haiya City Lord's Mansion to file a complaint, he would undoubtedly be beaten by a meat bun with no return.

At this point, the only person left in Haiya City who is most suitable to stand up for the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce is Yang Chenglong, the deacon and special trade representative of the Law Enforcement Hall.

After all, even ordinary mortal drinkers in Haiya City know that the Infinite Sword Sect asked Yang Chenglong to work in Haiya City just to provide a platform for pilot work on the reform of the social security system.

Although Zhu Ziming was very emotional here, Yang Chenglong sitting opposite him seemed unusually calm.

While Zhu Ziming loudly accused Haiya Bank of its shameless behavior, Yang Chenglong was sipping the top-quality spiritual tea sent by Su Yuanfeng last night and looking at the former Lu Anping office that he had just taken over, and his thoughts couldn't help but wander...

Lu Anping has been the top person in charge of Haiya City Customs for nearly thirty years, and he does not know how much benefits he has received privately. Just looking at the furnishings of this office, Yang Chenglong might not be able to afford it even if he saves twenty years of salary.

In particular, the thousand-year-old spiritual wood Taishi chair in the Tianshu Mountains under his butt seems to have a miraculous effect of calming the mind, and has also significantly improved the efficiency of retreat and chanting sutras. The value of this stool alone is probably more than thousands of spiritual stone coins!

As for the spiritual wood office desk in front of him, the top-grade spiritual stone crafts ornaments, and the monster skin carpet on the ground, Yang Chenglong, a disciple who has been hanging around at the bottom of Wuliang Sword Sect all year round, doesn't know how to value them.

Although the cost of decorating this office is sky-high, before Yang Chenglong came to Haiya City, he heard a colleague from the Law Enforcement Hall accidentally mention that Lu Anping was arrested in a hurry, and the Law Enforcement Hall did not even have enough evidence. , he was first beheaded and then arrested, and then based on the results of the interrogation, he went back to check Lu Anping's illegal gains.

According to the results of the subsequent search of Lu Anping's house, except for this office and several luxurious spiritual boats and magic weapons, almost no cash was found.

Judging from Yang Chenglong's many years of running errands at the grassroots level of the Law Enforcement Hall, this matter is absolutely abnormal. Lu Anping's wealth is completely incompatible with his status. There must be a large amount of cash hidden, but it has not been discovered by the Wuliang Sword Sect. That’s all.

Although the cash may have been transferred overseas, it is not certain. Yang Chenglong has also heard that some cultivators did not trust the banks run by the Cultivation Chamber of Commerce and hid large amounts of cash obtained from corruption in cellars and walls. Maybe I should find some time to renovate this office and see if Lu Anping has any hidden compartments in this office...

Even if the stolen money hidden by Lu Anping is not found, decorating the office will allow him to get a huge kickback.

After all, the projects allocated by the sect's financial resources are like big fat meat, which can be stained with a lot of oil and water even if it is touched. This is like the official road outside Yunlai City. I wish I had to renovate it eight times in ten years. Although I don't have to spend much money to decorate my own office. The sect uses public funds, but it's not a big deal to get thousands of yuan in spiritual stone coin kickbacks.

Although the money is not much, the best thing is that it is safe and leaves no clues...

"Deacon Yang! Deacon Yang!"

Just when Yang Chenglong was thinking wildly, Zhu Ziming interrupted his endless thoughts loudly.

Focusing his eyes on Zhu Ziming again, Yang Chenglong realized that he was not alone in the office, but was listening to the report of the new president of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce in front of him.

But what did this guy just say?

He was so busy thinking just now that he didn't pay attention to what this person was saying. He only knew that this guy was chattering a lot of things, but he didn't remember a word of it.

Although Yang Chenglong was not listening to Zhu Ziming's speech just now, he certainly would not show it directly. Instead, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip of spiritual tea to moisten his throat, and then said slowly: " President Xiao Zhu, if you have anything to say, you can tell me slowly, there is no need to shout my name suddenly!"

Seeing Yang Chenglong's appearance, Zhu Ziming was almost speechless.

I've been talking slowly for almost half an hour, but you just nodded blankly and didn't respond at all. Now you actually let me continue talking slowly...

What the hell am I talking about?

Although Zhu Ziming wished he could slap Yang Chenglong on the spot to make him sober up, it was a pity that the other party was a representative of the Law Enforcement Hall and Liu Hanxing's political ally, while he was just Liu Hanxing's horse boy. The status of the two parties was not equal at all. .

As the saying goes, the situation is stronger than the people. Faced with Yang Chenglong's extreme mental retardation, Zhu Ziming could only repeat it succinctly: "Haiya Bank withheld the funds from the supervision account and refused to let us use it. This is obviously to obstruct the reform of Zhongzhou's social security system. The pilot work blatantly violates the major policies set by the Wuliang Sword Sect, and we also ask Deacon Yang to make the decision for our Zhujia Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the Law Enforcement Hall!"

Hearing that Zhu Ziming started to sing a high profile without saying a word, Yang Chenglong immediately became a little displeased and said: "Which article of the "Zhongzhou Sect Management Regulations" did the Haiya Clan violate? If they did not violate the "Zhongzhou Sect Management Regulations", I As a deacon of the inner sect of the Law Enforcement Hall, you can’t take the lead in bending the law for personal gain, right? This is not a loss to my people, but to Elder Qiu Longbo’s face!”

Who doesn’t know how to sing a high note?

Since you can speak and hold your tongue, it is the policy of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and I can speak and hold my tongue, and I am Elder Qiu Longbo!

In bureaucratic organizations, subordinates often sing high-pitched words in order to pass the responsibility to their superiors. If the superiors also sing high-profile words, it is a sign that they do not want to take responsibility at all.

Seeing Yang Chenglong's unwillingness to give in, Zhu Ziming had no choice but to return the topic to the specific issue: "The problem now is that the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce has deposited eight million spirit stone coins in the supervision account, and Haiya The bank actually refused to let us touch a penny on the pretext of ensuring the safety of the shrine. This is clearly targeting us!"

Yang Chenglong knowingly asked: "Then why do you deposit so much money into the supervision account?"

"That's because the contract of heaven has stipulated it in advance, but the problem is-"

"Then who made this contract and who signed it?"

"Although the contract was made by President Liu, it was also for the purpose of selecting and recruiting——"

Before Zhu Ziming finished speaking, Yang Chenglong slammed the table and said: "Since the contract was made by Mr. Liu, then you go to Mr. Liu for help! I, Yang Chenglong, have always respected Mr. Liu very much, so why not How can Germany overturn Governor Liu’s decision?”

Zhu Ziming couldn't help but said bitterly: "President Liu has many things to do every day. How can I, a young monk in the Qi refining period, dare to disturb his practice without orders from President Liu himself?"

Yang Chenglong's expression suddenly changed and he said: "You Zhu Ziming can't afford to embarrass this person, how can I, Yang Chenglong, afford to embarrass this person? After all, I represent Elder Qiu Longbo's face, am I not as valuable as your face?"

Damn it, why did you pull Qiu Longbo out again?

We are discussing an ordinary contract dispute. What do you mean by never leaving Qiu Longbo?
