The Fourth Financial Crisis

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, not to mention that twenty thousand spiritual stone coins is not a small amount.

Although Yang Lu was short of money to the point of jealousy, he still had to do the necessary stage work.

Forcibly resisting the urge to put the Lingshi coins and large bills directly into his pocket, Yang Lu pretended not to mind, waved his hands and declined: "The Qingning Chamber of Commerce and the Han family have had many successful cooperations. When the Haiya Chamber of Commerce met, When it comes to problems, it is a great honor for our Qingning Chamber of Commerce to think of asking us, the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, to 'cooperate with the work.' Brother Han does not need to be so polite."

However, Han Fulai shook his head and said: "Since Brother Yang can see the fishiness of this island operation, you deserve this money...I don't mean to be polite when I say this, like a fool like Lin Dong, the problem is You can’t even tell it in front of you, not to mention that the person standing behind him is the leader of the Wuliang Sword Sect, even if the person standing behind him is the King of Heaven, I deserve not to be able to get this money!”

This Han Fulai can sit in the city lord's palace for his uncle, and he is definitely good enough in terms of emotional intelligence.

After such rhetoric, it was obviously a bribe to pay for hush money, but it turned out to be Yang Lu making money by relying on his own ability. Even if Yang Luming knew that this was the other party's words, he would inevitably have a good impression of him.

However, Yang Lu still declined: "Our Qingning Chamber of Commerce can be regarded as the top chamber of commerce in Haiya City. How can we let Brother Han's personal pocket go out of pocket just for a mere 20,000 yuan of spirit stone coins?"

Even if you take bribes, you can't get any money.

Han Fulai had just made it very obvious that he was making false accounts for the rice export business to outlying islands. Although it was clearly under the banner of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, the bulk of the real profits went into the private pockets of Han Fulai's uncle and nephew.

Private reimbursement and public reimbursement are completely different things in nature. Yang Lu can take kickbacks from the Haiya Chamber of Commerce without any psychological burden, but he must not take Han Fu's money casually.

Although continuing to refuse might allow Han Fulai to take advantage of the situation and get the money back, if Yang Lu didn't pretend to refuse, he might really offend the other party to death.

Fortunately, Han Fulai did not take the money back shamelessly. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and said, "This money is not for the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, but for you, Brother Yang. I have to say it with all my heart. Li Qingning With her abilities, she really can’t make this kind of money!”

Han Fu told the truth.

The Haiya Chamber of Commerce's routine was too deep. Even if Lin Dong participated in the entire banquet, he was stunned and didn't see anything. What's more, Li Qingning was still thousands of miles away in Haiya City?

However, Han Fulai didn't know that Li Qingning and Yang Lu were not ordinary friends.

The sapphire hairpin in Yang Lu's arms alone is worth millions of spirit stone coins. As much as the eldest lady trusts him, the Qingning Chamber of Commerce's money and his own money are nothing to Yang Lu. the difference.

Having said that, since Han Fulai felt that he and Li Qingning had an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship, Yang Lu was naturally happy to go along with the situation.

If Yang Lu accepted the money as the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, it would be equivalent to Li Qingning owing the Han family a favor. In the future, Han Fu would come to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce to handle matters, and the Qingning Chamber of Commerce would not be able to evade it, but if Yang Lu personally If Han Fulai wants to ask him to do something for his identity, he can blame Li Qingning and say that he can't make the decision for the Qingning Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, it is obviously more appropriate to collect money in his personal name than in the name of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce.

Although this would leave an impression of greed on Han Fulai, Yang Lu didn't care about this false reputation.

So he pretended to understand, smiled and thanked: "Since this money does not belong to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, I will not be polite to Brother Han. After all, I have just stepped into the immortal sect, and my money is indeed a bit tight. In the future, If Brother Han needs my help, I, Yang Lu, will naturally draw my sword to help when encountering injustice."

"Brother Yang is a great cultivator. I'm afraid I will have many people to rely on in the future. As for this operation to leave the island..."

"Don't worry, the reputation of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce is my caliber!"

"That would be perfect!"

Seeing that Han Fu didn't look unhappy when he came, Yang Lu reached out and stuffed the spirit stone coins into his pocket.

Han Fulai and Yang Lu demonstrated the art of bribery and the art of accepting bribes vividly. Although they didn't say anything clearly on the surface, they agreed on how much money to charge and how many things to do.

After talking about the business, the expressions of both of them softened a lot. Yang Lu took the opportunity to ask again, "By the way, since Master Lin dares to make money directly from the outlying island operation, he should have full confidence in Lin Dong's strength." ?”

Han Fulai nodded slightly and said: "Lin Jianxing is the leader of Wuliang Sword Sect after all. If the island falls into the sphere of influence of Huoyun State, he will not be able to escape his leadership responsibility as the leader no matter what, so he will never do anything like Wuliang Sword Sect." Something to be sure of. Although the guy surnamed Lin is a big idiot, his cultivation talent is really strong. The six-path sword inheritance of Wuliang Sword Sect has always been known for its extremely strong explosive power. In the face of Lin Dong's sudden attack, even if Tian Beixi is A monk in the late stage of Qi refining may not be able to escape death!"

"They are also direct disciples of the seven major sects of Kyushu. Is the gap so big?"

Han Fulai chuckled and said: "Five hundred years ago, because the establishment of Lingshi Reserve Bank touched the interests of Huoyun State, Tian Shangcheng, who was the head of Huoyun State at that time, sent the Yuanying Supreme Elder to assassinate President Lu Yang. You know the Wuliang Sword at that time Did the leader of the faction, Ma Tianyi, use a few moves to capture the elder of the Shenhuo Sect?"

Yang Lu shook his head and said that he didn't know this history.

Han Fulai stretched out a finger, and then retracted it: "Half a move! Leader Ma only used half a move, and he didn't even have time to blink, and he killed the elder of the Shenhuo Sect who was also at the Nascent Soul stage! Although The golden generation of the Wuliang Sword Sect has come to an end, but you should never doubt the foundation of the Wuliang Sword Sect, the largest sect in Kyushu!"

Yang Lu had long heard about the strength of the golden generation of the Wuliang Sword Sect. It is said that Tong Xingu, the supreme elder of the Yuan Ying period of Zijin Pavilion who forged Li Qingning's magic weapon, was the one who witnessed the terror of the golden generation of the Infinite Sword Sect on the battlefield outside the territory five hundred years ago, and has not been able to eliminate the psychological shadow to this day.

So Yang Lu understood and said: "So, Brother Han thinks that the Infinite Sword Sect has a chance to win?"

"This is not necessarily true. The seven major sects of Kyushu all have their own interests in the outlying islands. Although the other five sects are happy to see the Wuliang Sword Sect and the Shenhuo Sect dog-eat-dog, this does not mean that they will not intervene on the outlying islands. Conflict. In addition, Tian Daxiao, the leader of the Shenhuo Sect, is not a simple character..."

"You mean, since Tian Daxiao dares to intervene on the outlying island, he must have a way to counter Lin Jianxing?"

Mentioning Tian Daxiao, Han Fulai's tone also seemed a little uncertain: "I don't know... maybe Tian Daxiao is betting that the Wuliang Sword Sect will not fight with the Shenhuo Sect on the outlying island? After all, in order to send Lin Dong to the outlying island, Lin Jianxing did not hesitate to use I have received the autographed manuscript left by Master Luo, which is a treasure of the sect that cannot be measured with spiritual stones. Master Tian probably never expected that the Wuliang Sword Sect would be willing to take out such a treasure."

"Headmaster Lin really dares to spend money. This can be regarded as ruining the family and the country!"

"How is this possible?" After hearing Yang Lu's words, Han Fulai burst out laughing on the spot: "No matter how precious Master Luo's manuscript is, it still belongs to the sect's wealth of Wuliang Sword Sect, and the spirit stone coins Lin Jianxing got are all Really private property!”
