The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation
Chapter 64 Huo Chongwu's New Backer
Lu Changfeng was very puzzled after learning about this.
Previously, Huo Chongwu never dared to look him in the eye when they met, so why is he making a fuss now?
Has he found a new backer?
But this doesn't make sense. He has a good relationship with Su Qingzhu and is also a drinking buddy with Duan Yu. Both of them have connections. So who is Huo Chongwu's backer?
Could it be that someone gave this order in private?
He hadn't forgotten that Zhao Meng's previous trouble-making was with Su Ziyuan's tacit approval, with the aim of completely controlling people in the business world. So, the same possibility still exists now!
Since they can't figure it out, they'll have to unleash their ultimate move.
Fortune telling!
Just kidding, isn't this exactly when the art of divination comes into play?
After a long period of AFK (away from keyboard), my proficiency in the Heavenly Divination Technique has reached an extremely high level. Not to mention divining a Qi Refining stage cultivator, I can even calculate the Golden Core stage and the Nascent Soul stage myself. At most, the results I give will just be inaccurate.
As for the backlash? That's a joke; his own thirty-third level of self-avoidance perception...
Therefore, the Heavenly Divination Technique was entirely beneficial to him; it was just a matter of how much information he could obtain.
The results came out quickly, and Lu Changfeng's expression was quite strange after reading them.
"Good heavens, he's just a bully borrowing the tiger's power!"
That's right. According to the divination, Huo Chongwu has no powerful backer, so why does he dare to act like a bully?
The reason is that cannon fodder B accidentally picked up a jade tablet from Zhao Meng's hand. Previously, Zhao Meng had somehow gained Duan Yu's approval and obtained a jade slip that could prove his identity.
This guy handed the jade slip to Huo Chongwu, hoping to advance further. However, Huo Chongwu misunderstood and thought that Duan Yu favored him, but could only do this because of his weakness.
As a result, they began to act more flamboyantly.
Lu Changfeng laughed after learning about this.
"Hehehe, since that's the case, can I take advantage of this?"
Although Huo Chongwu had been relatively obedient before, he did have a criminal record.
If I can get rid of him, and then have Li Bing take his place, then the higher-ups won't care, the work can be handed over to Li Bing, and I can slack off anytime, anywhere.
Lu Changfeng was thrilled at the thought.
Then he called Li Bing over.
"Brother Lu!"
When Li Bing came in, he looked puzzled, clearly unaware of Huo Chongwu and his group's actions.
This can't be blamed on him. Huo Chongwu was only thinking about causing trouble and hadn't actually taken any action yet. If he hadn't had divine sense, he wouldn't have known either.
"Okay, Li Bing, I have something to tell you!"
"I recently learned that Huo Chongwu and his cronies are planning something."
However, upon hearing this, Li Bing instantly exploded.
"What?! If you hadn't let him go last time, Brother Lu, he'd be dead by now!"
"In the end, instead of being grateful, that guy actually tried to cause trouble again."
"But what if there's a trap here?"
Li Bing was obviously not stupid. Huo Chongwu knew he couldn't win but still caused trouble. Wasn't he just driving himself to his death?
"That's right. That guy's subordinate accidentally found the jade pendant that Manager Duan had given to Zhao Meng, but he misunderstood and thought Duan Yu was supporting him!"
"So I thought I'd get rid of all these troublemakers in one go!"
Hearing this, Li Bing finally understood what was going on and immediately agreed.
"Don't worry, Brother Lu, I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"
After saying that, he left to keep an eye on Huo Chongwu and the others.
As the saying goes, good news makes people feel refreshed, and at this moment, the cheat system refreshed and generated two gift packs.
[AFK Bar Pack: AFK Bar +1. Price: 128 In-Game Points.]
[Resource Inventory Pack: +1 resource slot. Price: 128 In-game Points.]
Wow, it's a double-yolk egg!
You should know that in the past year, he only encountered one anniversary gift pack that was worth buying. As for the rest, he would occasionally buy some spirit tea and spirit wine, which didn't cost him many in-game currency.
He immediately made the decisive purchase.
First and foremost is the AFK (away from keyboard) slot; without a doubt, this slot must be occupied by the Star Eye.
On the one hand, this ability is very useful, but its range is small. However, I don't really understand how to attract starlight, so I've just left it there. Now that I have an auto-play bar, I don't have to worry about it anymore.
As for the second point, this ability can be improved, and compared to other spells, this spell is more valuable for AFK (away from keyboard) play.
As for this resource bar, let's leave it for now and add it later when we encounter any rare resources.
Anyway, the resources produced by the resource bar are just a bonus for him. He relies entirely on the auto-play bar for cultivation, so whether he has cultivation resources or not makes no difference.
After finishing all this, he felt tired of staying in the office, so he decided to go for a stroll on the streets outside. It just so happened that he hadn't had a proper look around Tianxing City since its reconstruction.
However, as soon as he reached the door, Huo Chongwu, along with his henchmen, stopped him.
"Deputy Director Lu, what are you doing going out during working hours?"
"You're not thinking of going out to slack off and not do any work, are you?!"
"Don't tell me you asked for leave. If you wanted to ask for leave, you should have come to me first. I didn't hear you say anything about asking for leave!"
Huo Chongwu gave a wicked smile as he spoke.
Previously, Lu Changfeng had his own private office, but he never came out, so even if people knew he was slacking off, there was nothing they could do.
Moreover, to prevent Lu Changfeng from making excuses, he specifically mentioned the matter of taking leave.
Although the two are considered to be leaders of the same rank, they are in a mutual management relationship.
For example, in daily work, Huo Chongwu is theoretically in charge of Lu Changfeng, and Lu Changfeng is also in charge of Huo Chongwu's personnel authority. In theory, his decision to stay or leave is entirely up to him.
However, because of the previous reasons, Huo Chongwu did not dare to interfere with Lu Changfeng.
Now that he feels he has the deputy store manager behind him, he naturally feels he is qualified to go toe-to-toe with Lu Changfeng.
However, faced with Huo Chongwu's targeting, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but sneer.
"Now everyone in the mall knows I'm famously hardworking and capable. Since the mall opened, I haven't taken a single day off!"
"Of course I go out to work, do you even need to tell me that!"
Hearing Lu Changfeng's words, the people around him couldn't help but twitch their lips.
Yes, you haven't taken a single day off, but you've been slacking off every single day!
"Get out of my way! You're delaying my work, don't blame me for being rude!"
After saying that, he turned and left the mall without waiting for Huo Chongwu and the others' reaction.
After he had walked away, Passerby A hurriedly spoke up next to Huo Chongwu.
"Director Huo, what Lu Changfeng said earlier might be false. Our operations department doesn't require us to go out, so he definitely went out to slack off. Should we send someone to follow him?"
But Huo Chongwu refused upon hearing this.
"Hehe, didn't he say he wanted to go out to work? Then let him go."
"If he comes back without any evidence, don't blame me for having a serious talk with the assistant manager!"
