Cosmic Demon

Chapter 195 Zhou Yuanchen: Is Brother Qin here? Help me cut it!

The tall red door of the meeting room opened and closed again, and Zhou Shu walked out angrily.

He did not completely break off relations with Chen Ruofu and uttered a few harsh words.

The latter was known as the Tiger of the Inspection Department. In his early years, he had an extremely hot temper and acted in a very domineering manner.

If I give the order and ask the guards to carry me out directly, it would be very embarrassing.

"Respect is important! There will be many people coming to the General Representatives Conference, and we cannot lose face for the Education Department!"

Zhou Shu gritted his teeth, comforted himself, and quickly left the government building.

As soon as he lowered his head and got into the car, he immediately called the Education Department:
"Director, Chen Ruofu refused, and Fang Butang is in the same boat with him.

Their attitude is very firm, and they are determined to support Qin Shi to become the supernova of Tai'an and compete for the place on the Heavenly Road. "

Mo Qihuan, who was far away in the central city, didn't seem surprised. He tapped the table twice with his fingers and said:

"It's okay for Taian to be ambitious and want to stand out and show off.

Central City is full of talented people, and they are least afraid of fair competition.”

Zhou Shu looked hesitant. Over the years, the Education Department had indeed discovered many good talents through various competitions and exams.

However, even Zhou Yuanchen, the most outstanding among them, entered the professional field and still failed to defeat Qin Shi.

"I've talked to Xiao Zhou. A small defeat is nothing. After the setback, we just need to get up again.

Xiao Zhou has a strong character and great potential, and can still be promoted as a supernova of the Education Department."

Mo Qihuan took the initiative to set the tone for the Education Department's defeat in the top 100 competition, which made Zhou Shu feel relieved.

As a representative, he let the contestants selected by Tai'an urban circle steal the limelight from the central city, so he must take responsibility.

Now that Mo Qihuan is guaranteeing him, Zhou Shu will not face punishment if he returns to the central city.

Thinking of this, he felt grateful to Director Mo, who had been in the top position for decades, and said in a trembling voice:

"Thank you for your consideration, Director!"

Mo Qihuan smiled and said:
"Xiao Zhou, it doesn't matter if you mess up one thing. There are many opportunities on the road to progress. Take advantage of them and prepare actively."

Even though they were far apart, Zhou Shu still sat up straight and said solemnly:

"Understood. I will never let you down again!"

The call was hung up.

Mo Qihuan paused, and the tapping sound on the table stopped.

He lowered his head and thought, then dialed the red phone on the desk and called his secretary in.

"Xiao Liu, ask the confidential department to draft a secret letter and send it to Yancheng later. In addition, please draft a personnel appointment and dismissal document for me to transfer Zhou Shu to work in infrastructure.

The great development is imminent, and the front line needs talents. Let him take the lead and carry forward the noble style of our Ministry of Education staff who are not afraid of hardships. "

Doing infrastructure construction?

The secretary's heart sank, and he immediately realized that Director Zhou, who was sent to the Tai'an metropolitan area as a representative, would be sitting on the bench and had no future.

Within the system, the levels of positions at all levels are not absolute, and the weight they contain needs to be considered.

But one thing is recognized: only urban areas can be considered "hubs" where power is highly concentrated.

Being sent abroad for a long time or stationed in a marginal area is considered to be "exiled".

Director Zhou was transferred to work in infrastructure, and was undoubtedly far away from the central city and would no longer have any chance of advancement.

As expected, the director has always been very lenient towards subordinates who perform ineffectively.

The secretary lowered his head and thought.

"Allow some resources to be used to welcome the Fourth Regiment and fully prepare the airport. There cannot be any neglect."

Mo Qihuan spoke slowly and asked his secretary to take notes:

"By the way, I'll call the Governor's Office. Qin Shiqin, the top 100 contestant, has returned to Tai'an. I think his recognition and reward should be put on the agenda."

The pen tip rubbed against the paper, making a rustling sound, and the secretary wrote down every word.

With his good memory, he would never forget something after hearing it once.

But this is Director Mo's working style. Whether it is daily instructions in life or speeches in meetings dealing with important projects, paper documents must be left behind.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

The secretary put away the notebook he was carrying and put the pen back into his jacket pocket.

He has been following Director Mo for about seven years and is the fifth confidential secretary of the Director of Education.

Director Mo is relatively approachable, has a kind attitude, and likes to support his subordinates.

The previous secretaries all had good development after leaving the Education Department and took up leadership positions in important departments.

"The afternoon meeting is cancelled. I'm a little tired these days and plan to go home and rest."

Mo Qihuan looked out the window at the gloomy sky and said calmly:

"When the weather gets cold, my old ailments tend to come back, and my legs and feet become unsteady. Contact the Meteorological Bureau and ask them to control the clouds and keep the temperature around 20 degrees, so that the people in the central city can get enough sunlight."

The secretary nodded and said:
“The director really cares about the people.”

Mo Qihuan did not comment, and the secretary tactfully left the office.

He stood up and slowly walked to the 180-degree panoramic window, his eyes sweeping over the energetic face reflected in it.

"You have to give as much as you get. The Ying family is not a charity. Ying Lin is not very smart, but the elders behind him are all shrewd and cunning. If they want to default on their debts, they will undoubtedly end up destroying their own lives.

If I had known this earlier, I would have stopped striving for advancement and become a clerk, which might have been a good idea.”

The four words "retire after success" are really difficult to achieve within the system.

After sitting firmly in the position of Director of Education for decades, Mo Qihuan finally understood how difficult it is to "get ashore".

"Ying wanted to use me to bind Zhen Ting, but they were wrong."

A gleam of determination flashed across Mo Qihuan's eyes. Since he had no choice but to go to the gambling table, he would just bet everything.

If you are as hesitant as Ying Lin, you are doomed to fail in achieving great things.

……

……

Qin Shi, who was staying in Jiuchang Street, was not aware that a big disturbance had occurred regarding his election as the supernova in Tai'an area.

In front of the new location of Nanhuang Taoist Temple, there is a large open space with several breakfast stalls.

Qin Shi brought some of Jiuchang Street's more famous beef steamed buns and fried cakes to several of his senior sisters and brothers, and strode into the door.

The construction of the new site was very fast. It was originally expected to take about half a month, but it was completed ahead of schedule.

Compared with its previous "simple" appearance, it now looks brand new.

The black lacquered copper-nailed door has a brass animal-head door knocker, and above it hangs a gold-lacquered plaque with a black background, with the simple words "Nanhuang" inscribed on it.

On the right side of the main entrance is a canopy with rows of bicycles parked inside. Looking inside, you can see a seamless water-milled screen wall.

Qin Shi walked around the screen wall and saw his ninth senior brother Ren You who was teaching people to practice martial arts. He said:

"Brother Ren, take a break. I bought breakfast especially for you."

I haven't seen Lao Ren for a long time, and he still looks ordinary.

The "student" next to him grimaced, sweating profusely, and panting:

"Old Qin, is there any share for me?"

This person is Zhou Ning.

Thanks to Qin Shi's introduction, he became the first student after the new site of Nanhuang Taoist Temple was built.

The dojo is not the "sect" of the old era, where the disciples are strictly accepted and the rules are strict.

On the contrary, the more powerful a dojo is, the more likely it is to recruit students from outside.

The positioning is similar to "Martial Arts School".

There are no restrictions or requirements for students. They learn as much as they pay.

Of course, Nanhuang Taoist Temple is famous and is the last pillar of the old martial arts school in Hengzhou.

If we really want to recruit students, the threshold will be lowered.

So it is currently in the "trial operation" stage, temporarily starting from the eastern suburbs of Dangyang, and there are no plans to expand the scope.

Relying on internal connections, Zhou Ning entered the Nanhuang Dojo ahead of time and received instruction from Ren You, practicing until he was exhausted.

"What are you eating? These low-quality carbohydrates are no match for the nutritional creams and fitness meals I made myself."

Qin Shi admired Zhou Ning's expression as if he was watching a play as he just finished standing still. Then he took out a few boxes of Longxiangji's nutritional paste from the bag he was carrying and threw them over.

"You are so rich now! Why don't you buy Fengchun or Dachang which taste better!" Zhou Ning muttered to himself, feeling that Lao Qin was deliberately torturing him.

"No matter how rich you are, you still have to save money. There's no other way. I'm used to being poor and I dare not spend a penny more."

Qin Shi smiled and asked Ren You:
"Brother Ren, how is Xiao Zhou's training going?"

Ren You took the breakfast, walked into the main hall and sat down, and told the truth:
"His talent is average, and he doesn't learn very fast. But he has perseverance, and...he is very good at taking medication and absorbing it."

Qin Shi nodded. Zhou Ning was originally in the middle level of the Hongzhi class, and was about the same as his past self.

It is unrealistic to expect rapid progress.

Xiao Zhou is indeed a saint with congenital drug resistance. He had taken the Kowloon potion from the Yinma Gym before and nothing happened.

Qin Shi took a brief look and then went to the backyard with blue brick pavement to start his daily morning exercise class.

As the designated successor of Nanhuang Taoist Temple, his authority is second only to Lao Zhang.

Can command Xuanming and call upon a large amount of training resources.

"Xuan Ming, create an opponent who is a professional ninth-level player who specializes in horizontal training."

Qin Shi first changed the scene to the wilderness. Hearing that Hengzhou was about to start a new round of large-scale development, with Tai'an urban circle as the rear and Yancheng and Zhoucheng as outposts, it began to move towards the dangerous areas where there were many polluted areas.

Then input the data to simulate sparring, or to be more precise, with a sandbag.

"My vitality has reached ninety-nine points. The next hundred-point mark cannot be broken through simply by accumulating vitality."

Qin Shi suddenly kicked out with his left leg, and a visible air wave was torn apart and rushed towards the simulated human sandbag.

While fighting, he was thinking about how to enter the professional field.

Zhou Yuanchen relied on half of the blood flower and the harsh environment of the Great Rift Valley to break free from the shackles in one go.

"My savings are not inferior to Old Zhou who is burdened with more than 1 billion in debt. What I need to consider next is the resources containing high-level energy and the right opportunity."

Qin Shi was thinking that the batch of star remains and void marrow crystals he ordered from Entropy Sea Bank had been shipped, but they would probably have to wait until Hengzhou was fully unsealed for them to be delivered to him.

"Minerals are primary energy. They can replenish my consumption, but they can't provide effective stimulation. Ask Lao Chen when you have time to see if he can get something out of it."

……

……

Zhou Yuanchen stepped into Jiuchang Street and found the new site of Nanhuang Taoist Temple according to the instructions on the map.

It has been a month since the top 100 competition, and his frozen account has returned to normal after the battle.

Unfortunately, because he failed to complete the task assigned by Ying, he did not receive the 1.7 billion "signing fee".

"Xiao Zhou, don't be too discouraged."

Zhou Shu, who was traveling with him, observed Zhou Yuanchen's expression and thought that this supernova of the Education Department was still immersed in the blow of failure.

"Qin Shi is the successor of Nanhuang Dojo, and he has a master as his teacher. And you also said that he was not in good condition that day, and he lost because of carelessness."

Zhou Yuanchen turned a deaf ear and didn't want to pay any attention to the nagging Zhou Shu. His mind was full of doubts.

Is Qin Shi also a user of Entropy Bank?

Otherwise, by coincidence, my account would be frozen during the battle, reducing my strength.

After being eliminated, he was immediately unblocked!
"His fighting power at that time was at least over 2 billion! He was even more ruthless than me, daring to take out a small loan of 2 billion just to win the top 100 championship!"

Zhou Yuanchen's mind raced, and he couldn't help but feel convinced.

He knew very well how terrifying and suffocating the pressure of carrying debt was.

Qin Shi's background was even worse than his own, yet he was able to handle a loan of over 2 billion.

I didn't lose unfairly!

Zhou Yuanchen sighed. His rich experience in small loans for nearly twenty years made him realize very clearly that people who dare to lend money are not scary.

On the contrary, anyone who is forced into a desperate situation will have the adventurous idea of ​​"might as well give it a try, the worst that can happen is that I lose my life."

These are the lowest level of "gamblers" and Zhou Yuanchen has always looked down on them.

A strong person who truly possesses ability and will often knows where his repayment limit is.

"Borrowing is not a skill, only being able to pay back has a future!"

What Zhou Yuanchen was amazed at was not that Qin Shi had taken out a small loan of more than 2 billion yuan, but that the other party was so sure that he could pay it back.

He was very impressed by her accurate grasp of debt-bearing capacity and even wanted to discuss and exchange ideas with her to make progress together!
"Deputy Zhou, please don't go in."

Zhou Yuanchen spoke in a flat tone. He was not only a supernova in the Education Department, but also a senior staff member.

An office director like Zhou Shu, who has relatively low authority, cannot lead himself.

"I'm worried about your safety, Xiao Zhou. Qin Shi is the successor of Nanhuang Taoist Temple. You came here suddenly. What if something unexpected happened..."

Zhou Shu's face changed slightly. He still hoped to be tied to Zhou Yuanchen and continue to work hard to achieve some political achievements.

"Nanhuang Gym is a big and powerful organization, it can't do such a thing."

Zhou Yuanchen was determined. After saying this, he walked up the steps and knocked on the door.

……

……

"Old Zhou, why are you here?"

In the backyard, Qin Shi was sweating profusely and was wiping it with a towel.

The hot breath was like white smoke, emanating from his breathing and raising the temperature around him.

"You are also a user of Entropy Bank, right?"

Zhou Yuanchen asked straight to the point.

"No."

Qin Shi shook his head.

Did I guess wrong?

Or maybe he just doesn't want to admit it?
Zhou Yuanchen was stunned.

“I’m a customer.”

Qin Shi said again.

User, customer.

The two words seem to be only one letter different, but there is a huge gap between them.

Qin Shi had no intention of hiding this from Zhou Yuanchen. Opening an account at Entropy Bank was not a big secret.

After saying this, he no longer concealed his breath, revealing the shining symbolic emblem.

"hiss!"

Zhou Yuanchen suddenly felt a stinging pain in his eyes. He resisted the urge to cry and looked at the golden Entropy Bank logo.

He is actually a gold-level customer!

"Brother Qin."

Zhou Yuanchen subconsciously changed the address. According to the education he received since childhood, the evaluation system for the level of the food chain on campus is scores.

After graduation, it depends on "assets".

Zhou Yuanchen worked hard and diligently over the years, was admitted to Hengda University, entered the central city, and became a supernova in the Education Department.

He never dared to relax for a moment, and the good credit line of 1.7 billion he got in return was barely enough for bronze level.

Facing Qin Shi and the identity of a gold-level customer of Entropy Bank, he felt as if he was being suppressed and even had difficulty breathing.

Just like when I was in school, those poor students saw how I looked!

There is only one thought in my mind!
How much money did he borrow?
I’m afraid it can’t be measured in “monetary units”!

"Lao Zhou, you came to me just to ask this?"

Qin Shi put away the badge of Enhai Bank's VIP customer and asked.

"I want to learn from you and exchange experiences on how to become a strong person!"

Zhou Yuanchen rubbed his eyes and looked at Qin Shi with a completely different look, with an extra touch of thorough admiration and respect.

"But before that, Brother Qin, can you help me?"

"Ok?"

"Well, as a gold-level customer of Entropy Sea Bank, you can help someone cut a bargain every day, so that other people's shopping lists can get discounts."

Zhou Yuanchen looked serious and bowed respectfully:
"Brother Qin, please, I really need your help!"
