The Fourth Financial Crisis

The young man had long been unhappy with the upstart Yang Lu.

In his opinion, such unqualified overseas businessmen coming to Haiya Pavilion to eat would lower the quality of the entire inn.

What's even more irritating is that this guy didn't know if it was just to make him feel disgusted, but he even hired a dirty newsgirl to eat haphazardly next door to him. He almost treated Haiya Pavilion as a shelter!

When he saw Murong running towards him, it was strange that he had a good face!

It was also the first time for Murong to see such a customer who scolded him at first glance, and he was immediately at a loss: "I...I'm not a beggar! I'm a newspaper salesperson from Pan's Trading Company!"

The young man sneered and said: "Pan's Trading Company is the commercial leader of Zhongzhou. How can you, a beggar from Haiya City, get this title?"

At this point, the young man didn't bother to continue talking nonsense with the newspaper girl, and directly ordered the servant beside him: "Ajie, beat this little beggar out!"

After receiving the order, the servant immediately took out a whip from his waist and whipped Murong's face.

Murong obviously had a lot of experience in being beaten. Seeing that the situation was not going well, he crouched down to defend himself, holding his little face tightly to his chest.

At this moment, Yang Lu also slapped the teacup in his hand on the table with a bang.

"Stop! What do you want to do?"

Seeing other guests taking the initiative to intervene, the servant's right hand holding the whip immediately froze in mid-air. After all, he was just a servant and had no right to start conflicts with other guests on behalf of his master.

The young man also didn't expect that Yang Lu would blatantly intervene when he just taught a female beggar a lesson. As the two of them went back and forth, the surrounding guests were looking sideways.

It's okay for Yang Lu, an overseas nouveau riche. After all, no one here knows him, so he can't be embarrassed. However, as a frequent visitor to Haiya Pavilion, most of the guests in this inn know him.

Although the onlookers didn't say anything for the time being, the young man knew that most of them were watching his joke silently, and some of the guests who sympathized with Murong even looked at him with unkind eyes!

The young man didn't want to make the matter a big deal, so he warned Yang Lu in a deep voice: "My friend, I'm just educating a blind beggar, isn't that okay?"

Yang Lu helped Murong up and protected him behind him, and then said calmly: "She is my friend."

Hearing Yang Lu's perfunctory answer, a trace of anger flashed in the young man's eyes: If she really had a friend as awesome as you, would she still be a newsboy?

He was convinced that Yang Lu was just looking for trouble, so the young man stopped pretending: "I'm going to teach this newspaper girl a lesson today. I wish Ziming will do his best, but it's not your overseas businessman's turn to teach you!"

Hearing the name Zhu Ziming, Yang Lu's pupils shrank slightly.

Based on the intelligence collected during this period, he had a general understanding of the prominent forces in Haiya City. This guy named Zhu Ziming should be the young master of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce.

On the surface, the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce is just a mortal chamber of commerce, and there is nothing surprising about it. However, anyone who has a slight understanding of the political situation in Haiya City knows that the backer behind the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce is Lu Anping, the general trade representative of Wuliangjian stationed in Haiya City and a late-stage foundation-building monk!

If we use the analogy of positions on Earth, Master Lu is equivalent to the customs officer at the largest trade port in Zhongzhou. He is responsible for collecting import and export trade tariffs for the Wuliang Sword Sect. He is called the "Haiya City Gate God" by many ocean-going merchants. ". Even Jiang Hua'an, the lord of Haiya City, did not dare to take Lu Anping lightly.

And this Zhujia Chamber of Commerce is the man with white gloves and tools who comes to make black money for Lu Anping.

However, the strangeness in Yang Lu's eyes just flashed away, and then he said calmly: "I'm not your biological father and mother, why should I teach you a lesson for them? But I really have no control over this matter today! "

Seeing that the other party still showed no fear after giving his name, it was Zhu Ziming's turn to be embarrassed.

In fact, most second-generation ancestors are usually in an embarrassing situation. Although the title of "XXX's child" sounds majestic, everyone knows that the real powerful one is actually your father, and everyone also knows that, You can't make the decision for your father.

If there is no essential conflict of interest, everyone will naturally be willing to give you face. But if others are determined not to give you face, then the second-generation rich and second-generation officials actually have no good solution. If they go home and file a complaint because of the bad things they have caused, they will most likely be scolded by their father.

As a private equity fund manager, Yang Lu usually greets and sends off his second-generation ancestors, so he naturally understands the mystery behind this.

Zhu Ziming is not the kind of person who is easily impulsive, but when he saw that Yang Lu's face was filled with a mocking expression of "I just don't want to sell you face, why don't you go home and complain to your father?", he even went to Haiya Pavilion directly. The urge to fight.

But if he really fights in public in Haiya Pavilion, the entire Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce will probably become a laughing stock!

Just when he was so embarrassed that he couldn't get off the stage, someone finally rushed to the rescue. Seeing the middle-aged man who came to the rescue, Zhu Ziming seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and greeted him repeatedly: "Shopkeeper Su, our Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce is also a regular visitor to Haiya Pavilion. You must give me an explanation today!"

However, shopkeeper Su ignored him and instead bowed his hands to both parties: "Everyone, if you have any personal grudges, you can resolve them privately, but our Haiya Pavilion also has Haiya Pavilion's rules. If someone is in Haiya Pavilion, If they take the initiative to cause trouble on their own territory, don’t blame us for being unkind.”

Although shopkeeper Su's words sounded very fair, he did not respond to Zhu Ziming's words, which in itself expressed his preference.

Zhu Ziming was not a fool, and of course he could understand what shopkeeper Su meant. He knew very well that if he continued to entangle like this endlessly, this unknown maritime merchant would not be afraid of embarrassment, but the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce would lose all face.

Zhu Ziming glared at Murong fiercely and said, "As long as you are still in Haiya City for one day, I will definitely not be able to spare you!"

After finishing his harsh words, he said no more and walked away with his female companion and servants.

Seeing that Zhu Zi retreated knowing the difficulty, shopkeeper Su turned to Yang Lu and said: "Sir, although Haiya Pavilion has its own rules, these rules are not something that everyone can use casually. Please behave accordingly!"

Leaving behind what sounded like a warning, Shopkeeper Su turned around and left the scene.

Seeing Mr. Yang chatting and laughing, he drove away the young master of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce. The little stars in Murong's eyes almost popped out.

However, the girl selling the newspaper was not completely unsophisticated. She said worriedly: "Mr. Yang, thank you for being here today! But we have offended someone from the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce today. If the other party intends to retaliate, what should we do?"

Yang Lu did not answer this question, but looked at the main entrance of Haiya Pavilion with thoughtful eyes. Following Yang Lu's gaze, Murong saw a bald man, following Zhu Ziming's footsteps and leaving Haiya Pavilion.

After the figure of the bald man disappeared, Yang Lu slowly said: "Don't worry. Friends will naturally come forward to help us solve these small troubles, but..."

Murong had never seen Mr. Yang look so hesitant before and asked quickly: "Just what?"

Yang Lu smiled bitterly and said: "It's just that the friend who helped us settle the trouble may not act so fast. In order to prevent the revenge of that surnamed Zhu, I suggest that you also stay in Haiya Pavilion for one night. No matter how arrogant he is, , and I don’t dare to cause trouble on the territory of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, but, uh... I only opened one guest room."
