The Fourth Financial Crisis

The big label that Yang Lu slapped on him could be said to be very politically incorrect, but Zhu Ziming didn't care at all.

He just said with a sneer on his face: "Our Zhujia Chamber of Commerce has long been an important partner of Haiya City Lord's Mansion and Haiya Chamber of Commerce. City Lord Jiang and Master Lu have been friends for more than ten years. Even if you take what happened today If you tell City Master Jiang exactly what happened, City Master Jiang won’t say that our Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce did anything wrong!”

Zhu Ziming was not surprised by the exposure of his identity as the mastermind behind the scenes.

Since Han Fulai has chosen to completely sway to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, he will definitely sell himself out and exchange favors with the Qingning Chamber of Commerce. But if Yang Lu wants to discredit himself on the grounds of "secretly meddling in the internal affairs of the Haiya Department", that is purely He thinks too much.

Without the acquiescence of Jiang Hua'an, the owner of Haiya City, and Su Yuanfeng, the president of Haiya Chamber of Commerce, even if he lent his courage to Accountant Yan of Haiya Chamber of Commerce, he would not have dared to collude with the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce to give Li Qingning eye drops!

Li Qingning's big-breasted and brainless vase brazenly interfered with the social security system of Cultivation, not only offending Lu Anping, but also Jiang Hua'an and Su Yuanfeng, and even Liu Hanxing, the inspection elder of the Cultivation Financial Supervision Committee, was offended.

Who is Liu Hanxing?

That is the direct disciple of Lin Jianxing, the head of Wuliang Sword Sect!

If Li Qingyang's face had not been taken into consideration, all forces would have attacked the Qingning Chamber of Commerce long ago. Jiang Hua'an dared to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, which had shown his own tendency.

If Han Fu hadn't come and defected, the Qingning Chamber of Commerce would have been dead!

Thinking of Han Fu's return, Zhu Ziming suddenly found that the gifts Yang Lu was holding seemed familiar: Huoyunzhou Lingcha, Donghuangzhou porcelain, Borneo silk, these large and small gift boxes even had the words "Zhu Family" printed on them. The emblem of the Chamber of Commerce...

Isn’t this the overseas treasure that I bribed Han Fulai with?

Zhu Ziming's reaction was not slow, and he immediately realized that the gift he gave to Han Fulai was actually given to Yang Lu by Han Fulai!

This discovery made Zhu Ziming couldn't help but his eyelids twitching wildly.

Not long after Yang Lu appeared in Haiya City, Han Fulai licked him like this. Could it be that Yang Lu was his long-lost biological father?

Yang Lu didn't know that these gifts were from the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce. When he saw Zhu Ziming clinging to the gift box in his hand, his eyes almost popped out of his head. He quickly discovered something was wrong:

The pattern on the surface of this gift box is indeed somewhat similar to the pattern on Zhu Ziming’s clothes!

After figuring out what was going on, Yang Lu immediately picked up the gift box and said with a smile: "Master Zhu, I heard that the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce is an expert in selling exotic goods from overseas. I just received a few overseas treasures. Why don't you come and take care of them?" Palm eye?"

Zhu Ziming was about to open his mouth to scold his mother when a cheerful voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Brother Yang, what are you doing standing at the door of Haiya Pavilion? I have already reserved a seat, there is no need for you to wait here for me!"

It is said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao have arrived, but Han Fulai himself has arrived!

Hearing Han Fulai's voice, Zhu Ziming no longer had the appetite to eat.

Regardless of the delicacies on the table, which were not touched at all, he threw the chopsticks in his hand under the table, and then strode out of the Haiya Pavilion with a gloomy face.

Counting last night, Zhu Ziming had not eaten enough for two consecutive dinners. He felt that he might not be compatible with Haiyage.

The way Zhu Ziming stood up suddenly was of course noticed by Han Fu, who had just arrived. Manager Han couldn't help but be slightly startled by this scene: "Young Master Zhu, what are you..."

However, Zhu Ziming just snorted and said: "Han, you made an extremely wrong choice today. Even if Elder Han supports you, our Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce will make you pay the price!"

After saying the cruel words, Zhu Ziming didn't wait for Han Fu to explain, and just slammed the door and walked out.

Seeing Zhu Ziming's furious look, Han Fulai just rubbed his nose with displeasure and said scornfully: "It's just a dog raised by Lu Anping, and he dares to bark at me. I really think that our Ocean Trading Division can't control them Zhujia Chamber of Commerce ?"

Yang Lu calmly handed the gift to Han Fulai, pretending not to believe it: "The Zhu family merchants have Lu Anping as their backer. Even City Lord Jiang and Elder Han cannot touch him easily!"

Han Fulai didn't seem to hear that Yang Lu was deliberately fanning the flames. He took the gift naturally and said softly: "City Lord Jiang and Master Lu Xian are busy with everything, and they are pursuing the road to immortality. How can they personally care about such trivial things as Zhujia Chamber of Commerce?" It's a small matter. Don't worry, I have ten thousand ways to make the Zhu family merchants suffer unspeakably."

"With Brother Han's words, I feel more at ease!"

As the two chatted and laughed, they soon arrived at the private room on the top floor of Haiya Pavilion that Han Fulai had reserved early.

As the highest-ranking mortal civil servant in the main palace of Haiya City, Han Fulai is equivalent to the senior leader of Haiya Pavilion's superior unit. He has great privileges. Even the waiters of Haiya Pavilion who come to receive him are beautiful beauties. Anyway, when Yang Lu came for dinner last night, he had never seen this beautiful waitress. She was probably the exclusive waiter for Haiya Pavilion's high-end VIP customers.

When Han Fu came to see Yang Lu, his eyes fell on the beautiful waitress. He couldn't help but smile obscenely and said: "Although the waitresses in Haiya Pavilion are all prostitutes rather than prostitutes, they are only for ordinary people with our status. People, some things may not necessarily be accommodating. If Brother Yang sees the right thing, I can say hello to Shopkeeper Su..."

Seeing that Han Fulai was getting more and more outrageous, Yang Lu quickly interrupted: "If the eldest lady knows that I use public funds to drink wine, I'm afraid she will kick me out directly. I understand Brother Han's wishes!"

Han Fulai smacked his lips with some regret and said: "Indeed, although the mortal beauties in Haiya Pavilion are only one in a hundred, Miss Qingning is recognized as the most beautiful woman in Haiya City. Brother Yang meets Miss Qingning every day. I’m afraid it’s already been difficult to overcome the difficulties..."

In dinner parties where men take the initiative, beautiful women are always the most suitable topic to use to close the distance and enliven the atmosphere.

However, Han Fulai didn't know that the old servant standing behind Yang Lu was no ordinary person. Butler Zhou is the bodyguard chosen by President Li Qingyang for his great-granddaughter, a true foundation-building Dzogchen monk!

Noticing that Butler Zhou's eyes suddenly became sharp, Yang Lu really didn't dare to let Han Fu Lai continue to be so high, so he quickly toasted him with a glass of wine and blocked his big mouth full of trains.

This move made Han Fulai a little confused.

Am I not trying to liven up the atmosphere?

Why did you suddenly start toasting?

Just as the two of them were drinking each other, the beautiful waiter who was serving next to him silently withdrew. Then Yang Lu saw an acquaintance in the distance hurriedly carrying a wine glass.

This person is the shopkeeper Su of Haiya Pavilion whom he met yesterday!

Han Fulai didn't know that the two of them had known each other for a long time. When he saw Shopkeeper Su running over respectfully with a glass of wine, he laughed loudly and said, "Shopkeeper Su, it's been a long time. I didn't disturb your work today!"

As the head of the Ocean Trading Department, Han Fulai's status was obviously higher than that of Shopkeeper Su, who was in charge of the hotel.

Shopkeeper Su no longer looked as arrogant as yesterday. He raised his glass and said politely: "Manager Han is a distinguished guest of our Haiya Pavilion! I just heard from my servant that you, the old man, are coming tonight, so I hurried away. Come here. Providing good service to the City Lord’s Mansion is our top priority in Haiya Pavilion!”

Han Fulai waved his hand casually, patted Yang Lu's shoulder and introduced enthusiastically: "This time I also made a special trip to entertain Mr. Yang from the Qingning Chamber of Commerce. I didn't want to get into a fight over this personal matter! If shopkeeper Su is really willing to sell me this face, in the future, Mr. Yang When you come to Haiya Pavilion for shopping, don’t forget to give me a decent discount!”

Shopkeeper Su turned to look at Yang Lu, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, but soon the confusion turned into shock:

"Hey, you're not the one last night..."

He originally wanted to say that Yang Lu was the overseas merchant who caused trouble last night, but then he thought, since this person can be brothers with Han Fulai, the boss of the Ocean Trade Department of the City Lord's Palace, it is impossible for him to be an overseas merchant.

After all, Han Fulai is the nephew of the third-in-command of the Haiya clan, and his younger brother is, rounding up, the nephew of Elder Han!

Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Su broke out in cold sweat.

He suddenly remembered that just last night, he had said harsh words to Yang Lu in front of all the guests!

Yang Lu saw Shopkeeper Su's embarrassment, smiled and came to the rescue: "Shopkeeper Su left in a hurry yesterday, and I didn't have the chance to thank you! If it weren't for your help, I would have almost ended up in Haiya with Zhu Ziming yesterday. Let’s start a fight in the pavilion!”

Han Fu came to look at Shopkeeper Su, then looked at Yang Lu, and couldn't help but smile: "So you two have known each other for a long time, but it seems that I am just being sentimental... But then again, Zhu Ziming actually dared to be in Haiya. It is simply unreasonable to cause trouble in the pavilion!"

Shopkeeper Su is also a good person, and he immediately understood the meaning of Han Fulai's words: Han Fulai wanted to stand up for his younger brother and deal with the rich second generation Zhu Ziming!

Although the Su family in Haiya City is more powerful than the Han family in Haiya City, Han Fulai is the direct interest spokesperson of Elder Han Xinhe, while Zhu Ziming is just the white-glove son who is considered an ally of President Su Yuanfeng. Who can be offended and who cannot be offended by the two, as long as Shopkeeper Su is not stupid, he can figure it out with his toes.

So he immediately patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Manager Han. Since the boy from the Zhu family is so ungrateful, I don't think there is any need to receive him in Haiya Pavilion in the future. I will immediately order him down. Next time I see Zhu Ziming coming, I must give him a favor." He's blocking the door!"

Han Fulai also sneered and said: "Haiya City is the Haiya City of our Haiya Sect! With Lu Anping's support, Zhu Ziming has forgotten how much he weighs. It's time for us to let him review these stupid principles! "

Hearing this, what else could Shopkeeper Su say? He repeatedly patted his chest to ensure that he would complete the task. Then he took the initiative to greet Yang Lu warmly and politely, until Han Fulai's expression became a little impatient, and then he took the initiative to bow down and leave.

It wasn't until Shopkeeper Su disappeared completely that Han Fulai explained slowly: "This Shopkeeper Su is a distant relative of Su Yuanfeng, the president of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce. But Haiya Pavilion can only be regarded as a small business in the business map of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce. You are an insignificant existence, as long as you show my banner, Haiya Pavilion will give you the highest standard of treatment from top to bottom!"

"Then thank you, Brother Han, for taking care of me!"

Han Fulai wanted to say something more, but found that Yang Lu suddenly stared behind him, as if he saw something unexpected. Han Fulai quickly turned around, only to find a masked man in black standing behind him.

This masked guest was none other than Chen Ping, a monk from the Golden Blade Sect who came specifically to check on Yang Lu's situation.

Han Fulai was just about to scold this rude guy, but found that the guy just looked at Yang Lu with frightened eyes and did not say anything, which made him a little confused.

Yang Lu and Han Fulai didn't know that Chen Ping was frightened by Butler Zhou who was standing behind them.

As a disciple of the Golden Blade Sect, he didn't know the chief steward of the Golden Sword Clan. When he saw this great steward standing behind Yang Lu like a loyal old servant, Chen Ping almost pulled out his eyeballs. .

He never dreamed that Yang Lu would become the confidant of Miss Qingning just one day after joining the Qingning Chamber of Commerce!

What's even worse is that in order to contact Yang Lu, Chen Ping specially left a tracking spell on him.

It was through the tracking spell that he discovered that Yang Lu was heading towards Haiya Pavilion, so he made a special trip here to meet him. Unexpectedly, although Yang Lu came, a murderer actually followed behind him.

Seeing Butler Zhou looking at him coldly, Chen Ping broke out in a cold sweat: The difference in cultivation between the two sides was so huge, Butler Zhou must have discovered what he had done to Yang Lu!

His expression struggled for a moment, and Chen Ping immediately bowed and bowed, as if a live coal was burning on his butt.

"Haiya City Chen Ping, how offended!"

After saying these words, Chen Ping turned into a golden light and disappeared out of the window of Haiya Pavilion!

Butler Zhou looked at the direction in which Chen Ping escaped and then at Yang Lu, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Han Fulai didn't know that Chen Ping was talking to Butler Zhou.

Seeing a cultivator jump out and apologize to Yang Lu, and then run away like a rabbit, he was completely confused: The dignified cultivator of the Chen family in Haiya City would actually apologize to a mere mortal?

He took a deep look at Yang Lu, and an idea flashed in his mind.

Legend has it that the Chen family in Haiya City has a very good relationship with the Golden Blade Clan. During the third Lingshi financial crisis, the ancestors of the Chen family had an old relationship with Li Qingyang. The monks of the Chen family were so polite to Yang Lu. There is only one reason -

Yang Lu is Li Qingyang's confidant sent to Haiya City to help Miss Qingning, otherwise he would not be able to scare Chen Ping at all!

The logic of this explanation is very self-consistent.

The more Han Fulai thought about it, the more sense it made. Even the gift that Yang Lu just returned to him seemed to be hot to the touch.

He quickly handed Zhu Ziming's gift back to Yang Lu and said: "Brother Yang, I have given away these gifts, so there is no reason for you to bring them over again. We brothers don't have to be so polite!"

Seeing his sudden 180-degree change in attitude, Yang Lu knew that this guy was probably wrong, but he still refused firmly and said: "Since we are brothers, you can't look down on me like this. How can I let Brother Han spend money?" reason!"

After the two declined several times, Han Fulai finally accepted the gift. After the food and drinks were served, Han Fulai took the opportunity to clink glasses and whispered to Yang Lu: "Brother Yang, if you need my help in the future, just ask. My uncle is also happy to talk to Miss Qingning." Make a good relationship.”

Han Fulai's uncle is none other than Han Xinhe, the third-in-command of the Haiya Sect and the elder of the Haiya Sect's Law Enforcement Hall!

Han Fulai mentioned his uncle at this time. How could Yang Lu not know his true intention, so he asked in a low voice: "I rashly befriended Elder Han. I wonder what City Lord Jiang would think?"

Han Fulai's answer was quite meaningful: "City Lord Jiang cannot represent the entire Haiya Department, President Su cannot represent the entire Haiya Department, and my uncle cannot represent the entire Haiya Department. Conflicts among the top leaders of the Wuliang Sword Sect have intensified, even if The remote Haiya City cannot stay out of the situation, and I don’t think the Haiya Department should put its eggs in the same basket.”
