The Fourth Financial Crisis

Seeing Han Fulai's unpredictable expression, Yang Lu also had a new understanding of the hidden strength of the Haiya system.

You must know that although "Xu Zhen Financial Weekly" is the mouthpiece of the Wuliang Sword Sect, it is distributed throughout Kyushu through the channel of Pan's Trading Company, the richest man in Zhongzhou.

I didn’t expect that the Han family in Haiya City would be able to smuggle private goods in such a world-class media. The background of the three giants in Haiya City is indeed not as simple as it seems on the surface!

However, Han Fulai did not pay attention to Yang Lu's thoughts.

The commander-in-chief of the Haiya Fleet set his sights on the ballistae of the Haiya Fleet ships and said to himself: "The battle ended a little too quickly. It seems that there are still some combat supplies left..."

"Manager Han, what did you say?"

Hearing Yang Lu's question, Han Fulai waved his hands and said, "It's nothing, I'm just talking to myself!"

With the Sea Cliff Fleet advancing simultaneously on both sides of the sea route, the remaining part of the Outlying Island War became a one-sided harvest.

Since the control of the sea was firmly controlled by the Haiya Fleet, the scattered ordinary Guhong Island soldiers had no place to go even if they wanted to escape, so they had no choice but to surrender to the Haiya Fleet in an organized manner.

The number of soldiers who surrendered was so great that in the haste of the Sea Cliff Fleet, there was no time to load them all.

Seeing that a large number of Guhong Island prisoners of war were amputated by the allied forces on the outlying island because they could not be loaded onto the ship, Han Fulai looked very pained. Despite this, the batch of prisoners who were hastily loaded onto the fleet was already an astonishing wealth.

After selling these Guhong Island prisoners of war into slavery, it is expected to bring tens of millions of spiritual stone coins to the Haiya Fleet in net profits. With this income, the operation to support the outlying islands led by Han Fulai can be said to be a complete victory. Not an exaggeration!

Except for the ordinary surrendering soldiers, even Shi Yi, the lord of Guhong Island, was not able to escape in the end. He was tied up by several subordinates who wanted to hand over their names to the Haiya Fleet and handed over to Yang Lu and Han Fulai.

Because the Guhong Island army was defeated very quickly, a large amount of supplies were left behind in the Guhong Island army camp.

Yang Lu knew that Tian Beixi should have hoarded a lot of gunpowder. After forcing Shi Yi to find out where Tian Beixi's secret goods were stored, he immediately set out to check out these dangerous trophies.

But halfway, he was stopped by a group of sea cliff soldiers.

I saw this group of Haiya soldiers tying up a wretched middle-aged man with big stripes, and reported to Yang Luhui: "Master Yang Xian, we captured a strange guy from the camp on Guhong Island, and we are preparing to send him to guard the prisoners of war. There was a place where we signed a contract of prostitution, but this person kept saying that he was an old acquaintance of yours and insisted that we bring him here to see you!"

Yang Lu glanced at the tied man and asked with some confusion: "Do I know you?"

The tied man immediately introduced himself: "Consultant Yang, this is Ji Sihan, the manager of Luanshicheng Mine of Qingning Chamber of Commerce!"

Yang Lu was stunned when he heard this familiar name.

After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Manager Ji, I have admired your name for a long time!"

Seeing that Master Yang Xian really knew this middle-aged wretched man, the Haiya soldiers in charge of custody were also shocked. They quickly stepped forward and asked for instructions: "Master Yang Xian, do you think... do you want to loosen the bonds of Manager Ji of your Chamber of Commerce?"

"No, no!" Before Yang Lu could answer, Ji Sihan took the initiative to answer, "Ji is a guilty person, so it's good to just kneel down and report to Consultant Yang like this!"

Yang Lu looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile, and said: "You are so brave, you actually dare to come to me to report your work! Do you want to report how to hire Tingheyuge killer to assassinate me, or how to get away Qingning Chamber of Commerce’s huge sum of 500,000?”

"To be exact, it's 587,000 yuan of spirit stone coins!" Ji Sihan first corrected Yang Lu's statement, and then explained with a smile that was uglier than crying, "If what I expected is right, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce will definitely Sell ​​all the prisoners of war into indentured slaves. If I don’t take the initiative to come see you, I may never be able to turn over for generations to come!”

Although Ji Sihan violated the contract he signed with the Qingning Chamber of Commerce and is no longer protected by heaven, at least the disaster will not harm his descendants. If he signs a prostitution agreement, Ji Sihan's family will become the master like Zhu Ziming's servant Hejie for generations. Ji Sihan could still tell the difference between the lowly slaves who were killed at will and the more serious ones.

Yang Lu nodded and continued to ask: "What about the assassin of Ting He Yu Pavilion..."

"That was entirely Zhu Ziming's instigation! Even the employment expenses were fully reimbursed by Zhu Ziming, and the stolen money from the Luan Shicheng Mine was not used. After all, I am about to flee the island, and I am not afraid of carrying more charges. Zhu Ziming just wants me to Just being a scapegoat and taking the blame for the Zhu family!" Ji Sihan seemed to have known about Yang Lu's question for a long time and defended himself very quickly.

"This is just your one-sided statement!"

"Consultant Yang, I really have no motive to murder you!" Ji Sihan had obviously done his homework in advance and answered the questions very smoothly. "You must know that the commission of fifty thousand spirit stone coins is not a small amount. The money I worked hard to get, How could it be burned so casually!"

Yang Lu smiled noncommittally and said, "What, you asked me to chase you to the island personally, do you still want me to let you go?"

"If you are willing to show your favor, all my stolen money of 580,000 yuan is yours!"

"If I don't let you go, the 580,000 stolen money won't escape. Aren't you still a tough guy, Manager Ji?"

Of course Ji Sihan is not a tough guy, he quickly begged for mercy with a wry smile: "What you said is exactly the same as Tian Beixi!"

"Have you already met Tian Beixi?"

"She originally wanted to detain me first, and then press for the whereabouts of the 580,000 spirit stone coins. Unexpectedly, Advisor Yang was so powerful that he beat Tian Yaonv and fled, so she no longer bothered to take me with her!" Seizing the opportunity, Ji Sihan immediately presented the rainbow fart.

The soldier responsible for guarding him also echoed: "Yes, when we captured this man, he was already tied like a rice dumpling!"

Yang Lu turned to look at Ji Sihan again and asked, "Then tell yourself why I should let you go?"

Ji Sihan swallowed hard and said: "Who doesn't know that the Qingning Chamber of Commerce is thirsty for talents, and even the greedy guy He Mingyuan can be reused. Although Ji's level is far inferior to that of Consultant Yang, he thinks he will not be better than that He Mingyuan. Difference!"

Yang Lu said with some humor: "Guanshi He is a good and selfless cadre of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce. Are you worthy of comparing with him?"

"This is simply ridiculous!" When he heard Yang Lu praising He Mingyuan, Ji Sihan immediately retorted, "Others can't see it, so couldn't you, Consultant Yang, see it too? Then He Mingyuan is clearly a treacherous and loyal hypocrite!"

Yang Lu pretended to be displeased and said: "You are so brave, how dare you slander the business backbone of our Qingning Chamber of Commerce!"

Ji Sihan immediately argued loudly: "Consultant Yang, I definitely did not mean to slander! The grain trade operated by Luoxia City Branch has neither technical content nor business risks. Although I cannot see He Mingyuan's specific modus operandi, he To be able to achieve huge losses for the Luoxia City branch for consecutive years, it’s no surprise that there is nothing fishy here!”

Just as He Mingyuan knew Ji Sihan very well, Ji Sihan obviously also knew He Mingyuan very well. Yang Lu looked at Ji Sihan and said calmly: "Then bring it!"

"What to bring?"

"That 580,000 spirit stone coins you embezzled!"
