When the young secretary B presented the check, he was also carefully observing the other party's reaction, and then, without any surprise, saw a hint of emotion in the other party's eyes.

As a young man who had the promising future when he had just graduated from the outer school and was fortunate to be assigned to the City Lord's Mansion to serve as secretary for the Deputy City Lord, this Secretary B has very good working habits to preview in advance.

Even if time is tight, do everything possible to prepare.

On the way from the city lord's mansion to the Divine Sword Tower, Secretary B used the fastest speed to make up for information about Chen Qingming and others.

The daughter of Li Fengyun and Chen Yue'e was once an alternative to the Li family compound and lived alone in the mountain garden of Qingyun City. Later, under the guidance of the mysterious guest of the Li family, Wang Jiu, rose rapidly and became famous in Qingyun City as his idol spirit cat. Later, he won the championship of Qingyun Competition with his fourteen-year-old cultivation and became famous all over the world, and at the same time, the authority of Qingyun Competition was once again questioned...

In addition to the storm caused by this group of people after entering Shencheng, overall, these are all opponents worth taking seriously. Since the other party has clearly stated that they do not want to participate in the competition in the outer court, if they want to convince her to change their minds, they must show the sincerity of the Shen family.

The amount of ten thousand spirit stones is the sincerity that Secretary B takes on his own initiative. For most immortal cultivators, ten thousand spirit stones are astronomical. It is enough to buy a beautiful property in Shencheng, and then successfully marry Xiao Meibai in the suburbs...

With the city lord's mansion's usual simple and pragmatic attitude, this number can be said to be quite over the standard, and even exceeds the work authority of Secretary B. However, Secretary B fully considers the other party's idol identity. The profession that can get a large reward by singing, dancing, and acting cute is less sincerity, which may cause the other party to be unhappy. Compared to temporary overreach of authority, it is a real problem to mess up this errand.

Now it seems that this move is right.

At the same time, Chen Qingming remained silent, while behind him, Li Chaolu and Li Xinyu and others were moved.

A check of ten thousand spirit stones, as well as a promise of good policy benefits, and finally, there is a sentence that implies a victory promise of black box operation.

It sounds like the conditions are really good...

However, after a moment, Chen Qingming chuckled, the girl tilted her head and said to the person behind her.

"Ajiu, do you know what I remembered?"

With the contract with Chen Qingming's master-slave contract, Wang Jiu had the authority to communicate with her spiritually, and of course he knew what the girl was thinking.

"With this ten thousand spirit stone, you can buy a new small skirt..."

"Not this one!" Chen Qingming was angry and embarrassed, "You can't see anything else?! I mean, this ten thousand spirit stone reminds me of the fraud ad, 'Congratulations on winning the special election general, the prize is the Aipou multi-functional flying sword worth 12,800 spirit stones and 10,000 spirit stones in cash. Please go to xxx to collect'! Show your diligence or steal if you have nothing to do!"

Wang Jiu said: "Ah, when you saw that advertisement on the flyer, you thought that if you had ten thousand spirit stones, you could buy a new small skirt..."

Chen Qingming jumped and said, "Is it wrong for girls to buy small skirts?"

Wang Jiu said strangely: "That's right, so why are you angry?"

"I..." Chen Qingming was thinking at the time that the divine sword outside the sky that saved the people was actually this virtue. He must have been beaten to death by the Great Demon Emperor back then!

Secretary B was also sweating coldly when he heard it: "Well, Miss Qingming, you misunderstood. There is really no fraud in this matter. We sincerely invite you to participate in the Outer Court Competition."

Chen Qingming sneered: "Who isn't the liar saying that? When throwing bait, I want to take out my heart and lungs to show me. If I believe this kind of nonsense, I will be even more laughed at by people's intelligence."

Wang Jiu kindly reminded: "Your word "replace" is a bit inappropriate..."

"No one can hear it if you don't remind me!" Chen Qingming was angry again, then turned his head to Secretary B and said, "So please go back, don't delay us going home."

Secretary B was not willing to give up. As a newcomer in the workplace, he knew very well that this was definitely the key point for whether his career would take off in the future.

When they graduated from the outer school and started at the grassroots level in Shencheng, some people can overcome the limitations of their background and cultivation, and eventually become the top leaders of Shencheng, while others have only good backgrounds and good cultivation, and ultimately only do nothing in their idleness. The difference lies in whether they can seize the opportunity.

Secretary B has not been working for a long time, and there is also a Secretary A with a more experienced and well-off background. If you want to replace that senior and become the deputy city lord, you must show his work ability in front of the deputy city lord, especially the ability to deal with such difficult work!

In an instant, Secretary B's thoughts were heard, and then when Shen Qingming was about to turn around and call his companions to leave, Secretary B used a mental seal to contact Chen Jinghai.

"Sir Jinghai, I need more authorization."

Chen Jinghai replied immediately: "What? Ten thousand spirit stones are not enough? How many do you need?"

Secretary Yi Shizi spoke up: "Please authorize me to give me a limit of 100,000 spirit stones."

One hundred thousand spirit stones, this is even the reserve value of small spirit stone pits in remote areas, so even if Shen Jinghai wants to ask more questions.

"How should I explain such a large amount of expenditure to the Li family in a nearly bribery way?"

Secretary B used his brain and said, "We are for fairness! Chen Qingming and others were born in Qingyun City. The education and practice foundation they received since childhood were not as good as our Shen family. In order to allow them to stand on the same starting line as our Shen family's great men, they must be given certain subsidies. Just like when Shencheng formed alliances with the surrounding alien monsters, they would have extra points for recruiting some official positions."

"So that's it. For fairness, I have to use 100,000 spirit stones to buy the Li family..." Chen Jinghai repeated softly and laughed, "Well, I'll grant you this authority. If this matter is done, you will become the chief secretary when you come back."

Secretary B was ecstatic: "I will definitely live up to my expectations!"

The communication speed of the mind seal was extremely fast, and the conversation with Chen Jinghai ended almost instantly. Then Secretary B immediately picked up the pen authorized by Chen Jinghai and changed it to the check in his hand.

Ten thousand spirit stones suddenly turned into ten thousand spirit stones.

This number finally changed Chen Qingming's face.

"Shi Wan?"

Secretary B gritted his teeth and said seriously: "That's right, as long as you are willing to participate in the competition, I can hand it over to you now."

"Oh, should I pay first?" Chen Qingming was really moved. Although after the previous month of ups and downs, she had no hope for her kindness and sincerity in the Shen family, but to say that this is a trap or a fraud... How can I throw out such a heavyweight bait first?

Picking the Wanling Stones as bait, how big do they want to catch? Even if it is a population transaction, they can't make so much money...

So this made Chen Qingming even more confused.

"What about the reason?" This time, the girl was not busy refusing, but asked clearly, "Before, Shencheng, you, ignored us. Now, you suddenly took out such a large sum of money to ask us to participate in an outer court competition, or to put it more directly, spend money to invite us to the city lord's birthday party. There must be a reason for this change in attitude."

As he said that, Chen Qingming was not in a hurry to take the check, but sat down and said frankly: "If you don't get the reason, I will be moved by this check for picking up the Ten Thousand Spirit Stones, but I will not accept it. If you can give an explanation that satisfies me, I will participate in this competition as you said."

Speaking of this, Secretary B also took the initiative.

"I am just a grassroots employee, and many things can only be subjective speculation... But in my opinion, it should be that my previous cold greetings to you were not the original intention of the city lord, but the self-decision of others, so..."

Chen Qingming smiled and said, "So, put the blame on the people below? I still remember the word "Pu" by the city lord."

Secretary B pushed the check forward: "So, now we hope to resolve the previous unpleasantness and past things, let it pass. Just like you all come to Shencheng from thousands of miles to do."

Chen Qingming lowered his eyes, looked at the golden check, and then turned around: "What do you think?"

Shen Ying leaned over and took a look: "Please accept it, it's true."

Secretary B was shocked: "Shen, Miss Shen Ying!? Sorry, I'm just now..."

Shen Ying smiled openly: "It's okay, you didn't step on my feet, splashed my water, and didn't put tableware for me when treating me to dinner. It's already very good."

"I..." Secretary B was sweating coldly again, not because he was worried about offending Shen Ying, but... the insider trading just now could not be known to outsiders! He bought 100,000 spirit stones to compete, and he also won the championship. If this kind of scandal is exposed, there is no doubt that he will soon become a prisoner B.

However, then, Shen Ying laughed: "Sure, I've seen too many insider trading, and I'll stand on their side now, it won't get in the way."

Secretary B listened seriously, thanked Shen Ying for a long time and bowed repeatedly, but when he raised his body, he realized that there was actually a pillar in front of him...

Shen Ying's laughter came from beside him: "Hahahaha, use the emptiness and bright body to guide the illusion, I didn't expect that someone would be fooled. Wanqing, the creativity you provide is really great. It is really easy to open your brain when you talk about spiritual thoughts with you!"

Secretary B gritted his teeth, but had to bear the humiliation and laugh with him.

And Chen Qingming did not let his hard work go to waste in the end.

The girl took the check and smiled and said, "Okay, since you are so sincere and want me to attend the birthday party of the city lord, I will reluctantly make it. Let's go through the procedure."

Secretary Yi felt relieved and wanted to sit down on the ground: "Thank you very much!"

Chen Qingming put away the check and asked, "But I still have a question."

"Speaking."

"Since you want me to attend the birthday party so much, why don't you invite me directly, but instead have an outer competition?"

Secretary B said: "This, considering the historical origins, we directly invite the Li family to attend the birthday party, which is a bit..." When he spoke, he smiled bitterly and pointed to his face, meaning that it was a problem of face.

Chen Qingming said inexplicably: "Since that's the case, I will invite Qingyun's famous idol group Lingmao to appear in the name of a commercial performance. According to the current market price, this kind of performance will only end with one or two thousand spirit stones."

“…”

The secretary was stunned for a while, and then sat down on the ground with a gurgle.

Chen Qingming said again: "I won't refund the check."
Chapter completed!
