The Fourth Financial Crisis

The eldest lady of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce was assassinated and injured in the street. This can be said to be the most serious vicious incident that has occurred in Haiya City in the past ten years.

Xu Yannan, a monetary policy observer at the Lingshi Reserve Bank, personally wrote a letter to Jiang Hua'an, the lord of Haiya City, saying that the matter must be investigated to the bottom of the matter. The deacon of the Wuliang Sword Sect's Merit Hall also spoke out publicly at the first time, expressing his disapproval of Haiya City. expressed concern about the public security situation and believed that there were major flaws in the social governance of Haiya City.

Wuliang Sword Sect Merit Hall and Duzhi Hall are also known as the two top factions within Wuliang Sword Sect, and each has Nascent Soul Stage monks in charge.

The backer behind the Du Branch of the Wuliang Sword Sect is Mo Yunlan, the Supreme Elder of the Nascent Soul Stage, and the boss behind the Merit Hall of the Wuliang Sword Sect is Cheng Shuying, the Supreme Elder who is also a Yuanying Stage monk.

Just like Duzhitang is in charge of the financial power of Wuliangjian Sect, Gongdetang has two main functions, namely presiding over the performance evaluation of major local sects and maintaining the operation of the social security system of cultivation. In terms of functional division of labor, the two departments of the Wuliang Sword Sect are equally matched.

However, in the past 300 years, the momentum of Gongdetang has obviously fallen behind compared to Duzhitang.

The main reason is that the current leader of the Duzhi Hall, Mo Yunlan, is extremely strong. In addition to his identity as a great monk in the middle stage of Yuanying, he also has another very special identity - the enlightenment immortal master of Lu Yang, the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank 500 years ago!

As the saying goes, when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Although in a strict sense, Governor Lu Yang was gifted with talent. Mo Yunlan, who was only at the Golden Core stage at that time, did not teach Governor Lu anything at all. However, just the title of Governor Lu's Enlightenment Immortal Master was enough to overwhelm him. Dead people.

After all, President Lu’s subordinate Tian Daxiao became the head of the Shenhuo Sect, his assistant Li Qingyang became the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank, and his enemy Tong Xingu became the grand master of the Zijin Pavilion’s founding sect, not to mention the Enlightenment Immortal Master Mo Yunlan?

The quality of this circle of friends alone cannot be matched by ordinary monks even if they work hard for a lifetime!

Precisely because of his very special status, Mo Yunlan can be said to be the third most recognized figure in Zhongzhou's cultivation world, second only to Lin Jianxing, the leader of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and Li Qingyang, the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank.

Don't say that Cheng Shuying can't compete with him, even Lin Jianxing, the leader of Wuliang Sword Sect, is very afraid of him.

Despite this, Wuliang Sword Sect's Merit Hall has the support of the Supreme Elder of Nascent Soul Stage, and has the power to evaluate the performance of each sect. Only then did the deacon of Merit Hall speak out personally. Even Jiang Hua'an, a resident of Haiya City, couldn't take it lightly. .

What Jiang Hua'an is most afraid of is that this guy Fang Jiancai is using the topic as an excuse. After all, the assassination of Li Qingyang's great-granddaughter is by no means a trivial matter. Although the Haiya Department has entrusted the relationship to ask Xiuzhen Financial Weekly not to report the matter as much as possible, he is afraid that someone will deliberately try to Things got big.

If things really get serious, Fang Jiancai can use this as an excuse to lower the performance appraisal results of the Haiya Sect, thus forcing the Haiya Sect to pay a huge fine to the Wuliang Sword Sect.

Jiang Huaan knew very well that the interest alliance formed by the Haiya Clan and Duzhitang could not be hidden from the eyes of interested people.

As Duzhitang Lu Anping's mortal enemy, the inspector of Gongdetang stationed in Haiya area is very talented, and he is well aware of the complicit relationship between the two. He will never let go of this God-given opportunity to attack Haiya Clan and Lu Anping. !

Although Jiang Hua'an was furious at Fang Jiancai's political blackmail, the assassination incident had already occurred and he still had to make a statement. He immediately gave a death order to the Haiya City Lord:

No matter what the cost, we must catch the murderer no matter what!

Not only that, he also personally visited Li Qingning and said that this vicious case is a provocation to our Haiya faction and he will never tolerate it. The Haiya Chamber of Commerce is willing to provide the Qingning Chamber of Commerce with a 3% preferential price higher than other suppliers. In order to compensate for Li Qingning's mental loss, I just hope that she will not publicize this matter everywhere, especially not to accept interviews from suspicious people.

Every year, the Qingning Chamber of Commerce supplies more than 6 million spirit stone coins to the Haiya Chamber of Commerce. The additional discount of 3% is no less than a huge sum of 200,000 spirit stone coins. This is almost equivalent to Jiang Hua'an giving her a piece of high-quality goods for free every year. A spiritual stone.

Li Qingning's health was not serious to begin with, and she was just lying on the bed pretending to be pitiful. When she heard Jiang Hua'an directly offer such a generous offer, the eldest lady almost couldn't hold her breath and jumped up from the hospital bed with excitement on the spot.

After Jiang Hua'an left the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, she couldn't help but complain to Yang Lu, saying that Heyuge looked down on people, so why didn't they send more assassins to assassinate you? What could only one killer do... …

Jiang Hua'an's words about severely punishing the murderer were not just mere words.

For this killer who dared to make big news at the critical moment of the Immortal Ascension Conference, Jiang Hua'an would definitely go out to investigate, and he would also personally order Han Xinhe, the master of the law enforcement hall and Han Fulai's uncle, to lead the team.

Through the appraisal of cultivation crime experts, traces of the operation of Yu Jihong's sales array were quickly discovered.

But I heard that the killers of Heyu Pavilion have always been very careful when handling cases. In order not to lower their killer rating in "Didi Beating People", they would try their best to avoid revealing their identities. Therefore, the killer who assassinated Yang Lu did not rush him from beginning to end. Using the magic of the Mountain Eagle Sect, the investigation clues of the Haiya Sect were completely cut off at this point.

Han Xinhe, who was under great pressure, had no choice but to send Han Fulai to visit Yang Lu in person.

After seeing Yang Lu in the reception room, Han Fulai saluted on the spot: "Consultant Yang, you must help my uncle this time!"

Yang Lu quickly helped the other person up and said in an extremely sincere tone: "Brother Han is so polite! The relationship between the two of us is to help each other. If you need my help, just tell me!"

Han Fulai sighed deeply and said with some helplessness: "I came here specifically for the assassination of Miss Qingning. After we tracked down Tinghe Yu Pavilion, the clues to the entire hired murder case were completely lost. . Then Tinghe Yu Pavilion is a killer organization that even the Wuliang Sword Sect can’t catch. How can our Haiya Sect have the ability to investigate? I heard that Miss Qingning once fought against thieves in person, so I wanted to come to Brother Yang to beg for help. clue."

Yang Lu originally wanted to use the power of the Haiya Sect, so he smiled and said: "I once heard the eldest lady accidentally mention that the killer who attacked her seemed to be the Mountain Eagle Sect from Tianshu City."

Tianshu City is adjacent to Haiya City, and its outlet to the sea is occupied by Haiya City. It is an inland city famous for its mountain forestry and papermaking industries. The local overlords, the Mountain Eagle Sect and the Haiya Sect, are both neighbors and important competitors.

Hearing that he could bring trouble to the Mountain Eagle Faction, Han Fulai suddenly became energetic: "I wonder if the eldest lady has any evidence?"

Of course, Yang Lu would not hand over the evidence easily, but pretended to say: "The eldest lady has indeed seized the sword of a disciple of the Mountain Eagle Sect from the killer. She plans to take the sword in person and ask for compensation from the head of the Mountain Eagle Sect. Woolen cloth!"

Han Fulai asked anxiously: "I wonder if the eldest lady can hand over this physical evidence to me so that we can negotiate with the Mountain Eagle Sect?"

Yang Lu pretended not to understand what he was talking about and asked: "We are also looking for theories from the Mountain Eagles. Is there any difference?"

Han Fulai smiled bitterly and said: "My uncle is the elder of the Haiya Sect Law Enforcement Hall and holds a high position in the Haiya Department. Many people want to use this case to attack him. If he fails to make achievements in this assassination case, I'm afraid his prestige will be greatly affected, so I would like to ask Brother Yang and the eldest lady to give it to my uncle to handle the task of negotiating with the Eagle Faction."

Although Han Fulai didn't say it clearly, Yang Lu knew that the so-called "many people" most likely referred to Jiang Hua'an, the lord of Haiya City.

Jiang Hua'an assigned Han Xinhe to investigate the matter. I'm afraid he didn't have any good intentions. He just put his deputy on the fire. This made Han Xinhe's situation as embarrassing as that of the leader who was temporarily transferred to be in charge of health during the epidemic.
