The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 21 Qingning Chamber of Commerce
"Please show your ID!"

Yang Lu and Murong were about to step into the Qingning Chamber of Commerce when they were stopped by someone.

Looking at the doorman in front of him who looked like a gatekeeper, Yang Lu didn't say anything, but silently took out the letter of recommendation from the City Lord's Mansion.

The old gatekeeper is obviously literate. He picked up the recommendation letter and glanced at it, and suddenly showed surprise: "The City Lord's Mansion really recommended talents for us?"

Hearing this, Yang Lu raised his eyebrows: "What? Is there something wrong with my recommendation letter?"

The old gatekeeper said in a very incredible tone: "There is nothing wrong with this recommendation letter itself. A few days ago, the eldest lady offered to ask the City Lord's Mansion to help recommend some independent talents. I thought it was too childish at the time. , I didn't expect that the City Lord's Mansion could really recommend talents. What kind of game is this Jiang Hua'an playing for us?"

Yang Lu's pupils shrank slightly when he heard the gatekeeper call the Lord of Haiya by his name.

Jiang Hua'an is a third-tier Jindan cultivator, the emperor of Haiya City, and the current head of the Haiya faction!
The name of such a big guy is taboo.Is it possible to shout casually?

Yang Lu knew that the background of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce was not simple, otherwise the monks of the Zhongzhou Dapai Golden Knife Sect would not try their best to curry favor. This old man dared to call Jiang Hua'an so casually. If he was just an ordinary gatekeeper, Yang Lu The first one didn't believe it.

Thinking of this, Yang Lu immediately said respectfully, "I don't know what your name is, old man?"

The old gatekeeper put away the recommendation letter, and Shi Shiran said: "You can call me Butler Zhou. I am responsible for Miss Qingning's daily life. Now the Qingning Chamber of Commerce is short of manpower. When I am free, I will Help the eldest lady to guard the door. Since you have a letter of recommendation from the city lord's mansion, it is a guest personally invited by the eldest lady, and I will take you to meet her now."

The behind-the-scenes boss of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce usually lives in seclusion. Few people have seen his true face, and others only know that he is a cultivator.

Yang Lu did not expect that the Qingning Chamber of Commerce was actually headed by a woman!
Although he was a little surprised in his heart, Yang Lu still said calmly on the surface: "Then I would like to thank Steward Zhou for your help in introducing me."

However, Butler Zhou just snorted coldly and said: "It's pretty much pretending. But I want to put my ugly words up front. No matter which god sent you, you'd better be honest with me. If you How dare you have any crooked thoughts about the eldest lady..."

Hearing Steward Zhou's unfriendly tone, the simple-minded Murong immediately retorted: "Mr. Yang just came to Qingning Chamber of Commerce to find a job!"

Only then did Steward Zhou notice Murong's existence, and he couldn't help wondering: "What are you doing here, little girl?"

Suddenly being questioned, the girl who sells newspapers has no confidence: "I came to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce with Mr. Yang to find a job..."

Murong's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally he could hardly hear clearly.

Butler Zhou looked at Murong, then at Yang Lu, and couldn't help laughing: "You little girl, you look much more pleasing to the eye than this Mr. Yang. Well, since you're here, come with me." Let's go meet the eldest lady together!"

Following Steward Zhou's entrance into the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, Yang Lu's expression remained calm, but his heart was full of doubts.

Judging by Steward Zhou's performance, he was obviously doubting his real motives. Nevertheless, he still chose to take himself to meet the hostess of the chamber of commerce, as if he was not worried at all about his ulterior motives.

From Chen Ping, a monk of the Golden Knife Gate, to the unfathomable Steward Zhou, everything related to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce revealed an indescribably strange feeling.

This in the end is why?

Although Steward Zhou didn't like Yang Lu very much, he had a good impression of Murong, a simple-minded girl selling newspapers. The two chatted and laughed, and soon passed through an oriental courtyard and came to an exquisitely shaped Antique attic.

"This is Miss Qingning's office, let me introduce you to the two of you—"

Before Steward Zhou had time to finish his introduction, he was interrupted by angry complaints from the attic: "It's so deceiving! Is Haiya City still under the jurisdiction of Zhongzhou? Comply with the "Zhongzhou Sect Management Regulations"? Are they not afraid that I will bring the matter to the Law Enforcement Hall of the Wuliang Sword Sect, so that they can't eat it?"

"boom!"

As soon as the words fell, there was another deafening bang.

Just hearing this earth-shattering movement, Yang Lu once thought that someone had detonated a grenade in the attic.

Hearing this kind of change, Steward Zhou smiled wryly and said: "Miss has encountered something unsatisfactory again. But you don't have to worry, since the establishment of Qingning Chamber of Commerce, Miss will come here almost every few days This time. In fact, she is a very kind girl, and treats us servants very well, but sometimes she is a little... er, a little impatient when she does things."

Steward Zhou looked calm, as if he was used to what happened in the attic.

After the three of them walked to the door of the attic, Steward Zhou asked for instructions through the door: "Miss, didn't you ask Haiya City Lord's Mansion to help recommend talents last time? Now the talents recommended by City Lord Jiang have come to report, would you like Come out and meet him!"

Immediately, a woman's voice of surprise came from the room: "City Lord Jiang has indeed recommended talents for us! Uncle Zhou, I knew this method would be useful, please invite the guests in!"

Steward Zhou gently pushed open the door, and gestured to Yang Lu, but he stepped aside.

So Yang Lu took a deep breath and walked into the office of the hostess of the chamber of commerce.

This office is also decorated in a traditional oriental style. In the center is a quaint long case carved from high-end spiritual wood, which not only shows the style of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, but also does not give people the kind of local tyrants like nouveau riche Feel.

Behind the long case, stood an astonishingly beautiful classical beauty.

She was wearing a white dress, but that style didn't look like any kind of fashion nowadays, on the contrary, it looked a bit like the costumes of a certain dynasty in ancient times.

The black and beautiful hair is like a waterfall like a mirror, under a pair of bright eyes, there is a small and straight nose, and the facial features are indescribably exquisite. Even if the entire office environment is noble and elegant, no matter how perfect the environment is, after the appearance of this classical beauty , it is unconsciously ignored.

Even though Yang Lu was used to the man-made beauties transformed by modern plastic surgery technology, he couldn't help but be impressed.

It's a pity that the classical beauty's temperament of being a dusty fairy was completely destroyed by the priceless spirit tree case in front of her.

This stone-hard spirit wood case seems to have been split in half by some kind of force from top to bottom. At the center of the cut, you can still vaguely see the outline of a slender hand...

Seeing the slightly embarrassed expression of the classic beauty, it is obvious that this long case of Lingmu was split into two parts by this woman's palm.

Opposite the long case, there was another middle-aged man who looked like a servant, kneeling on the ground with a face full of fear.

Seeing Yang Lu's appearance, the man seemed to have grasped at straws, and pleaded repeatedly: "Miss Qingning, since you have important guests visiting, I will take my leave first."

The classic beauty known as Miss Qing Ning waved her hands helplessly and said, "Useless trash, you should step down first! Tell those civil servants in Haiya City who are eating vegetarian meals with corpses that today's matter is not over yet!"
