Wu Bei frowned and asked: "Why does the Qiu family control the Charity Hall?"
Ma Jiasheng: "The daughter of the Qiu family is the second wife of Park Tailong, the head of the Charity Hall."
Wu Bei: "Why does Park Tailong control the Charity Hall?"
Ma Jiasheng: "The Pu family gave birth to a Princess Pu, who was deeply favored by the emperor."
Wu Bei sighed: "Residents of the emperor and the country can really make money even while lying down."
Ma Jiasheng: "This world belongs to the Emperor of Daxia. Isn't this normal?"
Wu Bei continued to ask: "Who are the people who donate to you?"
Ma Jiasheng: "Individual donations are very small, accounting for only 23%. The largest donations come from large and small companies in Jiangnan Province. These companies and enterprises have to donate a sum of money to the Charity Hall every year, because as long as the donation is
You can get 'social contribution points'."
Wu Bei: "Social contribution points? Is this important?"
Ma Jiasheng: "Of course it is important. Social contribution points can be deducted from taxes. Moreover, enterprises of different sizes must obtain social contribution points of a certain scale, otherwise they will be subject to heavy fines. For every point missing, there will be a fine of 100
Ten thousand! But if you donate to our charity hall, you can get six points for every one million you donate, which is still very cost-effective."
Wu Bei: "The money from the Charity Hall is said to be a social asset. Can the Qiu family use it directly?"
Ma Jiasheng blinked and said: "Most of the large and small positions in the Charity Hall are controlled by the Qiu family. Therefore, the Charity Hall actually belongs to the Qiu family. Whether it is purchasing or the use of funds, it is the Qiu family that has the final say.
The Qiu family has opened hundreds of companies relying on charity halls in the past ten years, and the profits have been considerable."
Wu Bei continued to ask: "How many assets are under the Qiu family's name?"
"It must be hundreds of billions, I don't know exactly."
Wu Bei stared at him: "What is your relationship with the Qiu family?"
Ma Jiasheng: "My aunt married into the Qiu family. With this relationship, I can be the deputy hall master. However, I have no real power. I have to listen to the Qiu family's arrangements for everything big and small."
Wu Bei: "Who stipulated that all donations must be donated to the Qiu family?"
Ma Jiasheng: "No one has any rules, but the Qiu family has a backer, so they are more domineering in doing things, and everyone in Jiangnan Province gives their family face. As time goes by, no one dares to donate to other families."
Wu Bei mentioned Ma Jiasheng and said, "Take me to Qiu's house."
Ma Jiasheng was stunned: "Are you going to Qiu's house?"
Wu Bei: "I happen to want to do charity, but I don't have much experience. The Qiu family controls the Jiangnan Charity Hall, and I just happen to borrow the Qiu family's help to do some good deeds."
Ma Jiasheng said quickly: "I suggest you not to go. The Qiu family has hired many experts to take care of the nursing home!"
Wu Bei ignored him, turned around and asked Ouyang Zhiyuan: "Godfather, I will send you back to recover first. You have a good rest and wait for news from me."
After saying that, he took Ma Jiasheng and Ouyang Zhiyuan and took off into the air. He first sent Ouyang Zhiyuan to his residence, and then took Ma Jiasheng to Hucheng to meet the Qiu family.
Flying in the high altitude made Ma Jiasheng feel excited and scared. When the two of them flew over Hucheng, Wu Bei was about to land when he saw a shadow rising from the ground and condensing into a huge human face, blocking Wu Bei.
before.
"Who is here? Who are you interested in coming to Hucheng?" the man asked in a deep voice.
Wu Bei frowned: "Who are you?"
He could see that the person who was blocking him was not particularly high in cultivation, he was in the Secret Embryo Realm.
The huge human face said loudly: "The Yan family in Tiger City, Yan Xiangguo
!”
Wu Bei's heart was moved. He had heard people say that in some cities with a long history, some powerful spiritual families have gradually formed. This Yan family is probably a powerful force that has lived in Hucheng for generations.
The aristocratic families in these places have the responsibility of guarding the city and protecting the territory. Any monk who enters the city must be questioned first.
Wu Bei: "It turns out that Mr. Yan has long admired your name. I am Wu Bei, an elite disciple of the Lianshan Sect, and I have come to Hucheng to do something."
As soon as he heard that Wu Bei was an elite disciple of the first-grade sect, his huge face immediately shrank in size. Yan Xiangguo also became extremely polite and said: "It's Mr. Wu. I didn't know that Mr. Wu was here, so I missed him from afar!"
After saying that, a figure flew up from below. It was a middle-aged man. He walked up to Wu Bei with a smile and bowed to him: "Master Wu!"
Wu Bei: "Mr. Yan, I am very sorry that I was not able to notify you in advance when I came to Hucheng this time."
Yan Xiangguo smiled and said: "Wherever, if my Yan family needs to come forward, please just speak up."
Wu Bei: "Thank you very much."
Yan Xiangguo: "Master, if you don't give up, please come to my house for a cup of tea."
If there was no Yan family in Hucheng, Wu Bei could take action immediately. But since the Yan family is here, he had to consider the Yan family's attitude and said immediately: "Okay, then I won't bother you."
Wu Bei and Wu Bei arrived at Yan's house. Yan Xiangguo served tea and talked to Wu Bei politely.
Ma Jiasheng had been afraid to speak, but after learning Yan Xiangguo's identity, his face was full of fear. Although the Qiu family has some relationship with the royal family, it is nothing compared to the Yan family!
As far as he knew, this Hucheng was actually a fiefdom given to the Yan family by Daxia, and the Yang family was the real owner of Hucheng! No matter how domineering and arrogant the Qiu family was, they would become the same in front of the Yan family.
Good baby, don’t dare to be presumptuous!
Wu Bei smiled and said: "Mr. Yan, how many years has your family been in Tiger City?"
Yan Xiangguo smiled and said: "Counting from the first generation, it has been more than 850 years."
Wu Bei: "So, the Yan family has been here since the previous dynasty."
Yan Xiangguo nodded slightly: "Yes."
Wu Bei decided to get straight to the point and asked, "Does Mr. Yan know about the Qiu family?"
Yan Xiangguo: "But the Qiu family that controls the Charity Hall?"
Wu Bei nodded: "Yes, it is this Qiu family."
Yan Xiangguo nodded: "Of course I know. The Qiu family has some connections in the court, so they have made a lot of money. However, the Qiu family are ordinary people. In our eyes, they are all like ants."
Wu Bei: "That's right. No matter how rich you are, it's all just a dream and disappears in the blink of an eye."
Yan Xiangguo: "Is the young master's trip to Hucheng just for the Qiu family?"
Wu Bei: "I'll tell you the truth. The Qiu family beat one of my elders for no reason. I'm here to teach the Qiu family a lesson."
Yan Xiangguo was silent for a few seconds and said: "Ordinarily, this is the private matter of the young master, and it is not easy for the Yan family to interfere. However, the Qiu family has quite a lot of connections. If the young master touches the Qiu family, it will be tantamount to offending the royal family in Shenjing. Of course.
, the young master is a disciple of the sect, and the royal family will probably let it go in the end. But with all due respect, the fact that Daxia was able to establish a country in Giant and last for more than 700 years shows that there is a very powerful force behind it to support it. "
Wu Bei understood that what Yan Xiangguo said was true, and he said: "Then according to Mr. Yan's wishes, should I just give up?"
Yan Xiangguo smiled and said: "Of course we can't give up. The young master has a noble status, how can he be bullied by these giants and little people? I will write a letter to His Majesty the Emperor now to explain the matter clearly and let him make the decision!"
