The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 285 Dark Arrow
In the early morning of the next day, the battle of the loser group kicked off.

Facts have proved that Li Feiyu and Su Yuanfeng, the old conspirators, are finally at the end of their rope this time.

The group arena is not like a knockout match. There is very little room for black-box operations. In addition, Ye Chen's fighting style is very special. He uses his body strengthened by innate treasures to carry out the opponent's killer moves. The battle endurance is amazing, so they He could only watch helplessly as Ye Chen used a pair of iron fists to knock down the relatives who tried to kill him with the wheel one by one.

After all six related households were settled, Li Feiyu had no choice but to turn his attention to Li Qingning again.

However, Li Qingning had already made up his mind not to join in the fun, Elder Li Feiyu had no choice but to show his old face and reluctantly announce that the last winner of this year's Zhongzhou Sword Discourse Conference is Ye Chen from the Mountain Eagle School .

The Zhongzhou Sword Discussion Conference, which was fiercely contested on stage and off stage, has officially come to an end here.

Seeing that he joined the Wuliang Sword Sect as he wished, Ye Chen smiled from the bottom of his heart for the first time.

Because this time he eliminated his arch-enemy Haiya Chamber of Commerce player Su Cheng through "his own efforts", and then broke through many shady scenes to successfully secure the victory.

However, except for himself, no one else seemed very happy.

Needless to say, the six major relationship households that were eliminated and their backers, everyone worked hard for several years, but in the end, because they didn't know where they came from, they failed in the end, and anyone would be suffocated .

And Li Feiyu and Su Yuanfeng are also undoubtedly the losers, and all the previous calculations have finally become a laughing stock.

Even Chen Ming, the big winner on the bright side, felt that he was under a lot of pressure because he had offended too many local cultivation forces.

If it wasn't for sending Ye Chen to the Wuliang Sword Sect, which was an important part of his plan to hijack the Haiya Sect, he wouldn't want to do such a showy thing at all, it would be putting himself on fire.

In fact, Ye Chen's victory today was not entirely because of Li Qingning's release.

Just after bidding farewell to Yang Lu and Li Qingning last night, Chen Ming sent an urgent message to his ally Fang Jiancai, asking him to help contact the Supreme Elder of the Wuliangjian Sect, Cheng Shuying, to stand for the Shanying Sect. After receiving a summons, Li Feiyu held his nose and allowed him to enter the ring.

Otherwise, according to Elder Li Feiyu's original plan, he had planned to directly disqualify Ye Chen from the competition on the grounds of "not following the arrangement of the event organizer".

In other words, the so-called personal struggle is completely overthinking by Ye Chen, and behind it all is the process of history!

In fact, if Tianshu City had not suffered heavy losses due to the pilot reform of the social security system, Cheng Shuying felt that it was necessary to compensate Chen Ming, a loyal pawn and pawn, Cheng Shuying would not have personally stood up for the Shanying faction.

No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, the matter has developed to this point, the Zhongzhou Sword Discussion Conference has been settled, and the people who silently followed the Zhongzhou Sword Discussion Conference are far more than these forces on the surface.

While everyone was watching Li Feiyu read out the final result of the Sword Discourse Conference with different expressions, there were two special guests secretly observing the result of the competition in a secret box perfectly concealed by the illusion on the side of the arena.

One of them has a golden sword made of a horse on the private seat, and he is wearing the same style of Li Feiyu's golden elixir period monk robe of the Wuliang Sword School. Liu Hanxing, the head disciple of Menlin Swordsmanship.

Such a big man secretly came to watch the Zhongzhou Discussion of Swords Conference. If it gets out, it will definitely make people's imaginations run wild. I don't know if this person came to watch the game or has other purposes.

Observing the competition venue silently, Liu Hanxing quickly noticed Chen Ming standing beside Ye Chen with a gloomy face, which made him frown slightly.

Rubbing his temples and pondering for a moment, he turned his head and told a young monk standing beside him respectfully: "Zhu Ziming, you were born in the southeast coastal area of ​​Zhongzhou, so you should be familiar with the situation of the Mountain Eagle Sect."

It was no surprise that Zhu Ziming appeared next to Liu Hanxing.

After his plot to backstab the Haiya faction and Duzhitang was exposed, the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce was expelled from Haiya City by the Haiya faction and Duzhitang.

Of course, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce will definitely not use violent means to forcibly expel the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce. Just terminating the cooperation between all Haiya-type commercial entities and the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce is enough to make the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce lose its foothold in Haiya City.

After Haiya Chamber of Commerce and Duzhitang made such a statement, other comprehension chambers of commerce naturally knew that doing business with the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce was equivalent to giving eye drops to the two superpowers, so they voluntarily cut off their cooperation with the Zhu Family.

Things have developed to this point, and the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce, which has been in the sea trade business for hundreds of years, basically exists in name only, leaving only a large number of chambers of commerce real estate that is difficult to realize in a short period of time and is not willing to sell at a discount.

Without upstream and downstream partners, real estate such as cargo yards and warehouses cannot generate any profits at all.

If Liu Hanxing hadn't taken the initiative to protect Zhu Ziming, the remaining assets of the Zhu family would have been wiped out long ago!
Although it is not good for the Haiya Department to come forward and grab the assets of the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce directly, but this group of comprehension capitalists are all cannibals. After all, no chamber of commerce would dare to provoke the Haiya Department on its own territory and openly buy the Zhu Family. The real estate of the Chamber of Commerce in Haiya City, so they planned to force the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce to sell the assets at a low price by dragging the words.

Although the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce has already been admitted to the ICU, Zhu Ziming himself was kept by Liu Hanxing's side because of his bright mind, strong ability to handle affairs, and his status as a cultivator.

It's not that Liu Hanxing trusts Zhu Ziming so much.

No matter in which era, it is a common method for leaders to use the future to check and balance local factions. This is like the Three Kingdoms period. Those who are like bereaved dogs, it is difficult to collude with the ruler's original lineage faction.

Liu Hanxing ran errands for Lin Jianxing all the year round, and controlled a large number of cultivation forces including the Liu Family Chamber of Commerce. The relationship between the forces under his command was intricate. In addition, his time for dealing with mundane affairs was very limited. In order to avoid being confused by the people below Audio-visual, clever use of various forces under his command to check and balance each other is also a very useful and necessary political means.

Glancing at Yang Lu and Li Qingning full of hatred, Zhu Ziming turned around and changed his face, and replied respectfully: "The situation of the Mountain Eagle Sect, this junior does know a thing or two, I wonder if senior can give me any advice?"

Liu Hanxing asked directly: "You should have read all the information about the winners of the Zhongzhou Sword Discussion Conference, right?"

Zhu Ziming nodded, indicating that he had already studied these contestants.

Seeing that Zhu Ziming's intelligence work is very solid, Liu Hanxing continued: "We have already investigated the background of most of these people, as well as their motives for joining the Wuliang Sword Sect, except for Chen Ming's motives. Very strange. Why did he not hesitate to offend so many people, but also sent Ye Chen to the Wuliang Sword School? Su Yuanfeng wanted to send Su Cheng to the Wuliang Sword School, probably because he planned to pass through the Wuliang Sword School after Su Cheng advanced to the foundation building stage Due to the internal relationship of the Duzhitang, he was used as a foreign deacon to work in Haiya City to replace Lu Anping's current position, but what is the reason for Chenming to forcibly send Sai people to Wuliangjian?"

Regarding his biggest backer and boss, Zhu Ziming did not dare to be negligent, and honestly expressed his opinion: "Seniors have great opinions! In fact, juniors also have this question. After all, Chen Ming is willing to be Cheng Shuying's pawn, and he already has Fang Jiancai of Tianshu City is an ally, and it is impossible to bring Ye Chen to Tianshu City to cooperate in any case. Therefore, pushing Ye Chen into the Wuliang Sword Sect does not seem to be of any benefit to the Shanying Sect. Ming's expression, you should be able to see that he is actually not very happy..."

Liu Hanxing waved his hands casually, and said: "You don't have to be so cautious, just tell me if you have any ideas, I keep you by my side because of your ability, and I don't want you to talk like Others are so submissive!"

Zhu Ziming's expression moved slightly, and then he came to his mind: "If you want to know what Chen Ming is planning, this junior has a clever plan. You are usually busy with work, and you have to take care of your practice, so you may not have noticed. They sent a cultivator from the Dzogchen Realm of Foundation Establishment to the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect to serve as the representative of the Wuliang Sword Sect's office."

Liu Hanxing raised his brows immediately: "A cultivator who is in the realm of building a great foundation? This kind of monk is qualified even as an elder of an ordinary vassal sect. How could Chen Ming send him to the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect to take up a spare position?"

"This person is Fei Fan, the former acting head of the Mountain Eagle Sect and the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall." Seeing that his scheme had successfully aroused Liu Hanxing's interest, Zhu Ziming explained with a smile, "This Elder Fei is a He behaved cowardly in the chaos of the city, so he was pushed to the end by Chen Ming, and he was sent to the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect to take up a idle position. There are many secrets that cannot be hidden from his eyes, we only need to ask him out in your name, and he will definitely explain things honestly."

Liu Hanxing's eyes lit up immediately, and he exclaimed: "This is indeed a good idea! Since you came up with the idea, then I will leave this work to you. Find out for me as soon as possible, what the hell is Chen Ming doing?" ghost!"

Zhu Ziming responded immediately: "Okay, I will do it right away!"

Liu Hanxing nodded and said: "You must pay attention to this matter. Now is the critical period for the Lingshi Reserve Bank to be re-elected. These small actions of the high-level descendants of the Wuliang Sword Sect must be dealt with seriously!"

Although Liu Hanxing didn't say it clearly, Zhu Ziming also noticed something unusual.

Liu Hanxing is a great cultivator of the Jindan period, and possesses top-grade spiritual root aptitude. He usually spends most of his time in closed-door training. However, recently, he has not even attended such a small event as the Zhongzhou Discourse on Swords Conference. , have to come here to ask questions in person, which is obviously not a normal behavior.

If there is anyone worthy of Liu Hanxing's personal attention in the Zhongzhou Sword Discussion Conference, it is undoubtedly the host of the Sword Discussion Conference, Li Feiyu, combined with some recent rumors from the roadside club...

Could it be that Lin Jianxing wanted to appoint Liu Hanxing as the next president of Lingshi Reserve Bank?
After all, Li Feiyu is also a popular candidate for the next vice-president of Lingshi Reserve Bank, and the voice of the people is higher than that of Liu Hanxing. Could it be that Liu Hanxing came to watch the game secretly this time, just to catch Elder Li Feiyu?

The more Zhu Ziming thought about it, the more reasonable he felt.

Moreover, if Liu Hanxing can become the vice president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank, coupled with Lin Jianxing's support, it is equivalent to mastering the real power of the Lingshi Reserve Bank. Reach the sky in one step!
Thinking of this, Zhu Ziming became even more respectful: "Elder Liu, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter properly!"

Seeing that Zhu Ziming's expression was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and he looked like a general, Liu Hanxing couldn't help but feel a little worried after admiring him, so he decided to take the initiative to beat him up: "Zhu Ziming, how do you feel doing things by my side?"

A high-level cultivator's time is precious, Zhu Ziming realized in an instant that Liu Hanxing was definitely not chatting with him.He considered his words for a while, and carefully replied: "Thanks to Elder Liu for taking care of me, this junior has learned a lot from you recently!"

However, this answer was obviously not what Liu Hanxing wanted to hear.

He smiled and said, "It's better to be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

Zhu Ziming lowered his head slightly and said: "Choice is a very luxurious thing. I am not Li Qingning and Yang Lu, and I don't have a grandfather who is the president of Lingshi Reserve Bank. Some things are not something I can choose if I want to! I want to win the sky." Son-in-law, I have to gamble everything, and Elder Liu is willing to give me this chance to gamble, I am already grateful!"

Zhu Ziming's words can be regarded as nine truths and one falsehood.

The first half of the sentence was still sent out of his feelings, and the so-called endless gratitude is nonsense.

Zhu Ziming knew very well that Liu Hanxing just wanted to use himself as a tool.But for a guy like Zhu Ziming who does anything to get ahead, even if Liu Hanxing is a demon who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, as long as he is given a chance to make a comeback, he will choose to make a deal with the demon without hesitation.

Liu Hanxing showed a noncommittal smile, and then suddenly changed the topic: "Then do you want to return to Haiya City?"

Hearing this sentence, Zhu Ziming's heart jumped wildly: "I think, of course I hope to return to Haiya City!"

Seeing that Zhu Ziming's expression finally changed, Liu Hanxing also revealed a smile: "Follow me well, the day when you return to Haiya City in an upright manner will not be too far... But you also know that many Opportunities don't come a second time, if you do something I don't want to see, then don't blame me for not saying something ugly!"

Liu Hanxing's words were half threatening, half encouraging, which made Zhu Ziming's expression tremble.

He hurriedly said seriously: "Helping Elder Liu is helping myself, I will never let you down!"

However, after Liu Hanxing turned around with a satisfied expression, Zhu Ziming once again cast his eyes on Yang Lu and Li Qingning, and a trace of imperceptible coldness and sternness flashed across his face:
Do you think that driving the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce out of Haiya City counts as a victory?When the dust of the dispute over the social security system in Zhongzhou is settled, it will be the day when Zhu Ziming will make a comeback under the banner of the Wuliang Sword Sect!

Since Liu Hanxing dared to make a promise, this day may not be far away!
