Under One Person: One Person Goes

Chapter 421: Divine Painting - Seven-Layered Realm Gate
In the first district of Jinling City, in the villa of Commissioner Yu, a senior official of the Ministry of Transportation of the National Government.

A group of unscrupulous businessmen who run the current black market system and wantonly plunder the people in the city by selling tickets for buses and boats out of the city. The officials followed Wang and his men to force their way in, and the violent suppression became silent.

They did know that Wang Yi was a powerful extraordinary person, but in this era when self-media was not well developed, many times, even if someone saw it with their own eyes, most people who heard it would think that the other party was deliberately exaggerating.

What's more, all of these people present are important and wealthy. No matter how powerful the alien is, he still needs to eat, drink water and sleep in the end. He has to guard the house for them and act as a bodyguard or something.

As for Wang Yi, they pay more attention to the American consortium behind Wang Yi, that is, the Continental Group that Wang Yi established in the US.

In their eyes, the identity of Yi Ren is dispensable. After all, they are all in high positions. Why bother with fighting? It is more appropriate to sit down and discuss how to divide the money! How can you fight so hard? How can you make money if you fight so hard!

It was this kind of neglect that made them think that even if Wang Yi suffered a loss, the worst that could happen was that he would use his American background as a backer to pressure them. Who would have thought that Wang Yi would do this?

"Mr. Wang, why are you making such a fuss? If you have something to say, let's talk it over nicely."

It was not until Wang Yi came up and silently pinned his group of people down on the sofa, unable to move, like lambs to be slaughtered, that Commissioner Yu came to his senses and quickly gave in.

"I would like to talk to you nicely, but the problem is that you won't listen to me, Commissioner Yu. Commissioner Yu, I have never treated you unfairly in these years of business. Ever since my Stone Company established a connection with the American Continental Group and became the only domestic agent, how many goods imported from the United States have you not handled?
Apart from other things, we just agreed to build two international routes with the money and manpower provided by Continental Group to deal with future wars. You must know how lucrative this is, right? It's a long-term business, a never-ending cornucopia. This time, I took advantage of the opportunity to go out of town and do some small business at the dock. I didn't cross the line. Why? Is this annoying to you? You send people to blackmail me again and again? You keep asking for more money. Do you really think I won't kill people?"

As Wang Yi was speaking, there was no movement. Among those who were subdued by Wang Yi, the pupils of two profiteers suddenly shrank and they died of fright. The smell of feces, urine and fart immediately spread from their bodies.

Seeing that Wang Yi killed two people silently while talking, the remaining businessmen and high-ranking officials became panicked. This person really dared to kill people, and killed without leaving any trace. Seeing this, they quickly looked at Zhou Weiguo who came in with Wang Yi.

"Zhou Weiguo, you are the chairman's disciple! At a time like this, you are ignoring your colleagues in dire straits. Are you worthy of the chairman's cultivation of you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the officer who tried to shift the blame died with blood gushing out of his seven orifices, and Wang Yi's words were heard.

"You all probably think too highly of yourselves. Even if I kill all of you here, do you think your chairman will take action against me, the only agent of the American Continental Group in China?"

As he spoke, Wang Yi took out an American passport that he had prepared long ago and placed it on the table, stimulating the eyes of these guys.

Looking at the American passports on the table, everyone present suddenly became dispirited.

It is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, but it depends on who is competing with whom. At least the bunch of high-ranking officials of the National Government who are just sitting in their positions and doing nothing can do some things insincerely under pressure, but if they are asked to confront the European and American powers, they don't have the courage at all.

Not to mention that they are now the fish and Wang Yi is the knife. Just look at the other party's method of killing people silently just now, and the American passport that Wang Yi took out. Even if Wang Yi killed them all here, it would be an unsolved case when the investigation was carried out.

No one will speak up for them. The vacant positions and extra shares they have will naturally be taken over by others.

"Mr. Wang, we were blind and neglected you. Now that you have established your authority and killed someone, you should be more angry now."

"Commissioner Yu, you are quite magnanimous."

"It's not that I'm magnanimous, but if Mr. Wang really wanted to kill us, he wouldn't have said so much nonsense to us, nor would he have come to ask for an explanation. In a moment, we would have died violently in this mansion, so please give us a chance to make amends, Mr. Wang."

Hearing that Commissioner Yu could still speak like this at this time, Wang Yi also looked up to him a little more.

Although he is the bald man's fellow villager, to be able to reach a high position in the Ministry of Transport, it is indeed not something that can be fooled by relying on hometown connections. Seeing that the other party was so tactful, Wang Yi naturally explained his purpose.

"Since Commissioner Yu is so frank, then everyone please don't be restrained. I am here to solve the problem.

When I came in earlier, I heard you all discussing how to solve the problem of Quan Xing's disturbance. I think it's easy to solve, so I'll help you improve it. First of all, I have the final say over the business at the dock. All large and small ships belong to me, and the people are managed by Captain Zhou, that is, the teaching corps to which he belongs.

Secondly, since Quan Xing has caused trouble, we will tell the higher-ups that we have arranged someone to track down the whereabouts of the money. As for the city residents who have bought bus and boat tickets to leave the city in the past few days, we will tell them that because of the bad guys' mischief, all the bus and boat tickets sold in the past few days will be exchanged for boat tickets and sent to me. If they cannot take the big ship, they can take a small boat.

You have to explain to the higher-ups, these people have come to my dock, are you still afraid that I can't collect money from them? As for Quan Xing, they can go to your house, to your garrison area, but they won't come to me, and they dare not come, because I can really kill them all. As for the money earned, it's still the old rules, deposit it into your account at Citibank, Commissioner Yu, 50-50, what do you think?"

The solution Wang Yi proposed was simple and crude.

But the officials and unscrupulous businessmen gathered in this mansion did not dare to express any opinions.

As for the 50-50 split that Wang Yi mentioned, well, when the money is in Wang Yi's hands, isn't it up to him to decide how much money is and how to split it 50-50?

But looking at the three bodies lying on the ground, Wang Yi's amiable appearance, and the American passport on the table, how could they dare to say no.

"Everything is up to Mr. Wang."

"Okay, Commissioner Yu is a quick-witted person, worthy of being a good minister of the government. As for the three bodies on the ground, two businessmen and one corrupt official, it just happens that we can explain to the superiors and temporarily calm the people's grievances. You don't need to thank me. Captain Zhou's people and my people will take over soon. Please spread the message quickly and let your people make a good handover. The Japanese army is not far away. Time is short and the task is heavy. If it's too late, I will have to talk to you again."

With a satisfied smile, Wang Yi and Zhou Weiguo left in a leisurely manner. As the door closed, listening to the car sounds and footsteps gradually fading away outside the door, everyone in the villa collapsed on the sofa like a deflated ball.

Looking at the three corpses on the ground with ugly deaths and unpleasant odors, he had an expression as if he had survived a disaster.

But when they thought of Wang Yi's threats to them just now, treating them like fish on a chopping board, these officers who held military power were so angry that they gritted their teeth.

"Commissioner, is that all?"

"No! I can't swallow this. I'm going to go back and get people to shut down his business at the dock! I don't believe he can withstand so many bullets!"

"You'd better save your breath. If you want to die, don't take us with you. You've seen what they did. They don't even need the person in front of you to kill someone. If you really dare to do that, I'll be the first to shoot you!"

"What? We're just going to let him bully us like this? Don't you see that he was definitely responsible for Quan Xing's trouble last night!"

"So what if you figured it out? Do you have evidence? Have you caught the person? All you think about is playing with women and making money, right?"

Seeing the internal strife among his own people, Commissioner Yu also became angry.

"Stop arguing! What else do you want? If you've had enough of life, go ahead and do it yourself. I haven't had enough of life yet! What else do you want if you don't do what others say?"

"But Commissioner, he has eaten up half of the business with his empty talk. It will be difficult for you to explain to the chairman."

"That's my business. They just talk nonsense. With one telegram, the American consortium behind them can let the Americans question the chairman. With just a few words, he doesn't even have to show up in person. The Ministry of Aviation has two more international routes. That's the goose that lays golden eggs! They're right. If they really kill us here, do you think the chairman will make a decision for us?
Be alert, the chairman is busy with many things, will he ask about the accounts I report every day? Shut up about what happened here today! I will deal with the chairman. Now that things have come to this, I can only hope that the chairman will understand the good intentions of us subordinates, and bear the grievance of the chairman, and I will bear the blame! "

Seeing Commissioner Yu, the leader in making money, make this statement, the officers who were fighting among themselves just now acted as if nothing had happened and stopped arguing.

They did that just to see Commissioner Yu's attitude, just for show.

As for Commissioner Yu's righteous speech just now, it can be translated as, I will naturally re-do the accounts on the Chairman's side and cover it up. Your share will not change, and mine will not change either. The only thing that will change is the Chairman's share.

Later, when the chairman discovered that there were problems with the accounts, he could also use the excuse that the money was embezzled by the Americans.

The chairman of the committee was very powerful. Even if he didn't dare to challenge the Americans, he would find a way to get back the money from the American aid. It was not Commissioner Yu's turn to worry about the chairman. Wang Yi had no control over what Commissioner Yu thought. After getting the result he wanted, he immediately asked Zhou Weiguo to inform his top leader and let him give him the power and people so that Zhou Weiguo could go to Commissioner Yu to get the approval document to control all the ships at the dock.

As for the people, we naturally asked the captain of the southern army ship for them.

Otherwise, Wang Yi would not trust the people Zhou Weiguo brought with him at all.

Things were arranged in an orderly manner. Under Wang Yi's violent attack, Commissioner Yu also responded as quickly as possible, approved special matters, and gave Wang Yi the green light.

By night, things at the dock were gradually getting back on track, and Wang Yi had the final say for a while.

After a busy day, the captain finally had some time to relax and drink hot tea with Wang Yi, eating hot food and watching the people of the city who came to the dock to board the ship.

Of course, the money has to be collected, but how to do it is up to Wang Yi and the captain of the ship.

In the past, they had to fill boxes with the collected money and put them in public for everyone to see. Now, they don’t have to do that. Once the boxes are full, the money is transported to the warehouse. After registration, some money is taken out to pay Commissioner Yu, and the rest is shipped to Jiangbei along with two copies of the account books.

They will be picked up by disguised troops over there, and then the money will be returned in full to win the hearts of the people.

This is what Wang Yi can do, trying to achieve a win-win-win situation for all three parties.

Commissioner Yu gave an explanation, and more people in the city were able to evacuate safely, and Lao Chen's troops were also able to get some supplies.

"As of today, how many people have left the city?"

"Not counting the money from the train station and the money I ran myself, the money from the dock here is almost 100,000."

"One hundred thousand? If we count the people on our side, including those at the station and those who have left the city on their own, after the last three days of November, we estimate that about half of the people in the city can leave. The remaining half will depend on the next defense battle. This level is not easy to pass."

Wang Yi was also worried when he heard the numbers reported by the captain.

He knew very well that the number of deaths caused by the tragedy that happened soon after had always been a fictitious number.

This number was finally determined after the collection of corpses, post-war trials, and investigations of survivors, but in reality it would have been much higher.

You have to know that after this disaster, the entire city has almost become a deserted city. Even if there are local people who survived, they will choose to leave this sad place and take root somewhere else.

Later, the national government moved a lot of people back from outside, which made the city a little more lively.

He didn't dare to hope for too much. After all, there were too many variables. He just hoped that this imaginary number could become a real number. It would be good if the real number could be reduced by one third, or even half. Then when the time comes to finalize it, reporting it according to the previous number would not make people feel abrupt.

There will also be more people who survive to record these things, so that there won’t be people with ulterior motives trying to overturn the verdict in the future.

Just as Wang Yi was thinking about these things, a boatman disguised as a guard came over, whispered a few words in the captain's ear, and then left.

"I just received news that a Japanese military train coming from Songhu was attacked while stopping for repairs. The track was damaged and military supplies in a carriage disappeared. Did your people take action?"

"I roughly guessed who did it. They are barely in my circle. It seems that Quan Xing's fate is still somewhat useful. At least they didn't see it. Well, we have been busy in this city and don't know what the situation is outside. When they come over, we can ask them clearly, so that we won't be so passive."
-
On the other hand, just when Wang Yi received this barely good news.

On the way to Jinling City, led by Lu Ren, the eldest son of one of the four famous families, Lu, and assisted by Wang, nearly two hundred famous and upright people from the northern strange circle also took a rest in the mountains and forests.

Along with these nearly two hundred people, there were boxes of military supplies.

Looking at the military supplies around them and the fire that lit up the night sky not far away, these righteous people also looked at Lu Ren who was sending people to guard.

"Master Lu is in control of the situation."

"It's all thanks to Manager Liu, otherwise we can leave. These things are not so easy to take away. Everyone, take some time to rest. Bombing the tracks is only a stopgap measure. It can delay the problem for a while, but not forever. With the speed of the Japanese engineers, the military train will probably be able to continue moving at dawn. Time is running out."

"Brother! Something's happening!"

The Lu family member who was in charge of keeping watch gave a warning, and the Wang family member who had just rested for a while took action.

Divine Painting - Seven-layer Gate!

The six Wang family members joined forces and used their family's inherited skills to draw a gate of white light on the ground with their own vital energy, which could surround all the people and the goods.

With a flash of white light, all the people who had just rested, along with the cargo, disappeared from the spot.

Looking in the faint moonlight, you can find that they are actually still there, but the three-dimensional ones at the beginning have turned into two-dimensional graffiti printed on the rugged road.

It is moving silently into the darkness using the ground as a medium.

This is the Wang family, one of the four famous families. The family's inherited magic skill, Divine Paint, has another magical use besides sending messages over thousands of miles.

It is one of the two unique skills of painting in the circle of Chinese extraordinary people, along with the Secret Painting School. Although the Divine Painting is not as versatile as the Ruyi Power of the Lu family in killing the enemies, its ability to kill the living and the dead and lurk silently is truly unique.

The seven-layer gate is outlined with the true Qi of God, connecting to the world in the painting. The colorful Qi of God is then used to cover the people and things that need to enter the world in the painting, like a pass.

As long as the Qi attached to the target does not dissipate, the covered target can move freely in the world in the painting and can also observe the situation outside the painting.

And it does not prevent the people in the world of the painting from using their own means.

It is indeed a great trick to destroy traces of corpses when traveling at home.

After making sure that no one was left behind, Lu Ren also told the Wang family members not to use the divine Qi to observe the external situation on other people, so as to reduce consumption and avoid being noticed.

He and the Lu family members who were traveling with him swung out the Ruyi Force together. Under Lu Ren's control, the Ruyi Force composed of purple true Qi turned into Lu Ren's ears, extending from the ground to the surroundings to receive feedback.

When the Ruyi Force was taken back, the faces of all the Lu family members changed.

"Master Lu, what's wrong?"

Seeing Lu Ren's face change drastically, the others also asked in secret.

But Lu Ren's answer left them confused.

"Footsteps. Lots and lots of footsteps!!"
