Ruins of the past

Emperor Yong'an thought for a while and said, "Summon Chu Qiguang to come to the capital..."

Chen Zhong recalled in his mind the shares Chu Qiguang sent to his godson last night.

At this moment, hearing Emperor Yong'an's order, Chen Zhong reminded him: "I heard that the Yunyang Chamber of Commerce has been newly established and is waiting to be revitalized. Chu Qiguang is busy every day until dawn. Will asking him to come to the capital disrupt him? arrangement.”

After hearing the words, Emperor Yong'an pondered for a moment and nodded: "I'm afraid that when he comes to the capital, those wealthy families in Lingzhou will have other ideas and mess up the situation that Chu Qiguang finally won, and then all the previous efforts will be wasted... …”

‘Will the stock price fall? ’

Thinking of this, Emperor Yong'an waved his hand and said: "Forget it, don't let him come to the capital. Let Qintian Supervisor send an official there, and the Demon-Suppressing Division also send someone to follow."

"Check Chu Qiguang's face and bones carefully... to see if he is the Eighth General of the Xinghan Dynasty."

"Remember, this matter must be carried out secretly, and no information can be leaked."

After giving the instructions, Emperor Yong'an said again: "Chu Qiguang, Yang Ling and Zhong Shan'e have done a good job this time. What do you think would be a good reward?"

…

How great is it to have financial freedom at the age of 17?

Chu Qiguang probably has a lot of say now.

Since he was 15 years old, he has never asked for a penny from his family.

He owned his first chamber of commerce at the age of 16.

When he graduated from Chaoyao Mountain at the age of 17, he gave up his job in Beijing with a five-digit income a year and decided to work hard in the south.

It only took him three months in Shuzhou to expand from a few people to a team of hundreds of people.

Now he is the president of the largest chamber of commerce in Lingzhou, has achieved financial freedom, and has the influence to change the situation in Lingzhou with just one word.

He once used his spare time to support himself by selling health medicines in Qingyang County. Now he has his own business empire in Lingzhou.

Facts have proved that God always favors those who work hard.

At this moment, Chu Qiguang was walking in the library of Lingzhou Demon-Suppressing Division, feeling the heat coming from the Ring of Foolishness in his chest, with a satisfied smile on his face.

Next to him was Liu Fang, a member of the Lingzhou Demon Suppression Division. He said with a smile: "Brother Chu? Do you really want to give us money?"

Chu Qiguang nodded: "It's not giving, it's investing. There are still too many evil cults in Lingzhou now, such as the Immortal Way and the Emperor's Way, which have seriously disrupted the business order."

"So I discussed it with all the shareholders and decided to allocate 50,000 taels of silver every year to cooperate with the Lingzhou Demon Division to set up an anti-evil team."

"Specially responsible for cleaning up evil cults and confiscating the books of various sects."

When Liu Fang from a hundred households heard about fifty thousand taels of silver, he smiled even more happily: "Don't worry, we will definitely get rid of the good guys and bring peace to Lingzhou!"

Chu Qiguang reminded: "Cults can resurrect again and again. The key is that the sect's classics are always circulated among the people."

"Liu Baihu, please pay more attention to this point, collect all these classics, and store them in our own hands."

Chu Qiguang did this, on the one hand, of course, to let the Lingzhou Demon Suppression Division work for him and search for ancient books for him.

On the other hand, it is indeed necessary to clean up the cults and prevent the people at the bottom from being bewitched by the cults, which will affect the future development of the chamber of commerce.

After Liu Baihu left, Chu Qiguang stayed in the library of Lingzhou Demon Division and began to search for books according to the guidance of the Ring of Fool.

Although the quality of this library is not as good as the large library in Chaoyao Mountain, it has been collected by Lingzhou Zhenmo Si for many years, and its richness far exceeds that of ordinary aristocratic families and Taoists.

By reading these books, Chu Qiguang can quickly enhance his combat power.

Although he easily defeated Jin Haitian, Chu Qiguang would never become arrogant because of this.

He knew very well in his heart that at least a powerful person with his current strength would never be able to defeat him.

After entering the Tao, those sectarians who have mastered supernatural powers also pose a certain threat to him.

He is far from invincible and still needs to constantly accumulate strength.

Now that he was going to stay in Lingzhou for a while, he just had people collect ancient books in Lingzhou so that his strength would not stop growing.

At this moment, Chu Qiguang took out a book from the bookshelf and saw lines of writing popping out of the seeker's eyes.

"Listen to the Notes of the Emperor and God"

"Since the departure of the Emperor God."

"There is an endless stream of believers trying to communicate with him."

"This is the note left by someone who heard the voice of the Emperor's World."

"They hear voices from outside the world."

"But they don't have a way to return to normal."

Chu Qiguang looked at the notebook. It recorded that several believers wanted to contact God Huangtian.

These believers also had quite a lot of money at home, so they bought mantras and rituals related to the God of Heaven from everywhere in the market.

After the acquisition arrived, they tested it one by one.

It has not been successful in several years.

Until they bought a strange wood carving from a farmer, they once again tried the ritual of summoning the God of Heaven according to the incantation recorded on the wood carving.

No one knows what they heard, except that from then on, these believers gradually went crazy.

From time to time, they point to the stars in the night sky and say that the stars are talking to them.

The last time they performed the ritual, one of them turned into a monster and swallowed all the other believers.

When the Demon Suppressor came over, the monster had already smashed five wooden houses and eaten six people, four pigs, and a cow...

Chu Qiguang looked at the crazy words recorded in his notes, and after reading them, he felt a wave of heat pouring into the Ring of Foolishness.

but……

‘A bye? ’ Chu Qiguang was stunned for a moment, then walked to the next bookshelf.

Chu Qiguang read three books in one go this afternoon, but all of them were missed. No gifts poured out from the Ring of Foolishness.

‘Is the Circle of Foolishness no longer gifted? Or is he saving up for something? ’

Chu Qiguang was not in a hurry. Lingzhou Demon Division had confiscated quite a few classics. He decided to try at least seven more books.

If all ten books are a bye, he will temporarily give up the method of increasing his strength through books.

Returning to the courtyard rented by Qingyang Exchange, Qiao Zhi lay on the roof and shook his tail, saying in his heart: "That woman is here to collect debts."

Chu Qiguang nodded, and after a mental exchange with Qiao Zhi, he came to sit down at the desk.

Then he smiled and said: "Long time no see, why are you squatting under the table?"

Under the desk, Luo Binghong was squatting there, holding a large bowl of blood-red talisman water in her hand, exuding an extremely dangerous aura.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and she glared at Chu Qiguang and said, "Chu Qiguang! You killed me! The leader will not let me go. We will die together today..."

Chu Qiguang said: "I asked you to hold the stocks of Qingyang Chamber of Commerce, right?"

Luo Binghong gritted her teeth and said, "That's what you said..."

Chu Qiguang added: "After the merger, have the shares of the Chamber of Commerce risen back?"

Luo Binghong said tremblingly: "But you are missing, we can't find you anywhere..."

Chu Qiguang looked at Luo Binghong with a smile: "How much money did you lose?"

Luo Binghong gasped and said, "One hundred and forty thousand taels."

Chu Qiguang said: "If I die, who else can give you these 140,000 taels?"

As he said that, he took out a stack of things from the desk drawer: "You killed me, but it was just a quick move."

"Other than that, it does a lot of harm and no good."

"And here is thirty thousand taels of silver, the deed of a manor in Shuzhou, and a thousand acres of farmland."

"I can also use my connections to arrange a new identity for you in Shuzhou. You can be a Demon Suppressor, a Celestial Master, an ordinary businessman, or a farmer. You can do whatever you want."

"As long as you are willing to do something for me, Luo Binghong can die at any time, and then you can change your life."

Luo Binghong looked at the banknotes and house deeds in front of her... and gently lowered her hand holding Fu Shui.
