It is absolutely impossible to say that Yao Shu intends to fall out with his old boss Donghua Zhenren and personally go after Donghua Zhenren’s former secretary Xie Jiaofeng. But it is impossible to say that Yao Shu intends to protect Xie Jiaofeng with his life, or to go to Xie Jiaofeng
Up to the peak, Zhang Yuelu didn't notice anything.
Yao Shu's ambiguous attitude is a bit gloating. He seems not to object to the joint investigation of Fengxian Tang and Beichen Tang. From the perspective of camp confrontation, a person who should be opposed has shown a business-like attitude.
The neutral attitude and its intentions can already be seen.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the square in front of Sheji Palace, and Zhang Yuelu got off the carriage.
Sun Yongfeng personally held up a big umbrella for his old boss Zhang Yuelu, with half of his body exposed in the rain. At the same time, he continued to report: "There is another news. Our real boss summoned Chen Shuwen."
"What did he do when he saw Chen Shuwen?" Zhang Yuelu's heart sank.
Chen Shuwen is the chief director of Nanyang United Trading Company, who was single-handedly promoted by Qi Xuansu, and is also an important figure related to the lifeline of Nanyang's economy.
Since it is an economic issue, it is mainly related to the Chief Deputy Palace Master. If Chen Shuwen also has problems, then the situation will be even more unfavorable.
"This incident also happened after the chief left the Lion City." Sun Yongfeng's report was very organized, "not long after Lao Xie was captured."
Zhang Yuelu hesitated for a moment, "What did they say?"
Time moves forward.
As the real person in charge of the office, Yao Shu was naturally dignified and dignified. He sat behind a large desk, leaning back on the chair with a relaxed attitude.
Chen Shuwen sat opposite Yao Shu and straightened his upper body.
"Mr. Chen, you must think clearly and don't be confused." Yao Shu tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
Chen Shuwen said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Master, please don't scare me. I'm just a businessman, and I only know how to do business. I know nothing about political affairs, and I don't dare to get involved."
Yao Shu said: "You can't say that. Nanyang United Trading Company involves all aspects of Nanyang. It is not just as simple as 'business'. On a larger scale, it is related to the stability of the entire Nanyang. No matter where it is, stability is the top priority.
How can you say it has nothing to do with political affairs? Mr. Chen, you are also an old man from Nanyang. You have gone through ups and downs and watched him build tall buildings and entertain guests. Would you not understand this truth? Isn't it true?"
Chen Shuwen was indeed a person who had seen the big world. He was not frightened. Instead, he continued: "Seeing him entertaining guests, seeing his building collapse, this moss and green tile pile, I have been sleeping in love for fifty years.
I've read enough about the rise and fall. It's just that the writing is dull and I don't know who this 'he' is?"
Yao Shu chuckled: "Of course it's Wang Jiaohe and Chen Shuhua, who else could it be?"
Chen Shuwen suddenly said: "I thought the real person in charge was talking about Chief Qi and Chief Zhang."
Yao Shu took a deep look at Chen Shuwen: "This is a bit bold. Aren't you afraid that Chief Qi and Chief Zhang will be unhappy if they find out?"
Chen Shuwen said: "The two chief lords have a lot of money. I don't think they will argue with me, an old man who talks but doesn't mean anything."
Yao Shu changed the topic: "Of course, this 'he' also refers to one person, that is Xie Jiaofeng, the deputy head of the Taoist Palace. Now that he has been officially arrested, it can be regarded as the building collapsed. Before that, Xie Jiaofeng
I am very proud of the spring breeze in the Taoist mansion, and it is said that I have many contacts with you."
Chen Shuwen said calmly: "The headquarters of Nanyang United Trading Company is in Lion City, and Vice-President Xie is also in Lion City. We are close neighbors. How can we not have contact with each other? When it comes to exchanges, everyone in the Taoist mansion has contact with Vice-President Xie.
The master has contacts, including the real person in charge of the house, the real person in charge of the house. It is said that the deputy master Xie was once the secretary of the real person Donghua. There are too many people involved. Among so many big shots, the little old man is really a big deal.
Nothing."
Yao Shu looked at Chen Shuwen and finally understood why Qi Xuansu let this person take charge of the Nanyang United Trading Company. He was indeed not a simple role.
Chen Shuwen looked very calm on the surface, but in fact he was complaining secretly in his heart. The serious imbalance in status put great pressure on him. Yao Shu came to talk to him this time and it was not that simple. I am afraid it was not just a problem with Xie Jiaofeng.
Maybe there will be more involved, even Chief Zhang and Chief Qi.
Yao Shu hoped that he could provide more shells - from this point of view, some people in the Yao family were seriously dissatisfied with the series of actions of Master Donghua. Although they could not directly break up with Master Donghua, they could not
I don’t mind reminding Mr. Donghua at this critical juncture of the competition for the Grand Master, you haven’t become the Grand Master yet. Even if you become the Grand Master, the Yao family will still be the Yao family. The three major families have been the Grand Master for several generations.
If you teach without falling, you will still be at the top of your game, and this time will be no exception.
It's just that Chen Shuwen doesn't intend to change the family, not to mention the frivolous things like Qi Xuansu's kindness in meeting him. From a practical point of view, Yao Shu did not cover the sky with one hand in the Borneo Taoist Mansion, and he said everything.
There is a great master in charge, and there are a chief and a second in command below him. No matter how high your cultivation level is or how powerful you are, you can't do anything to me.
Yao Shu said: "Xie Jiaofeng was found to have a huge amount of property from unknown sources this time. I want to know, are these ill-gotten gains related to Nanyang United Trading Company?"
Chen Shuwen chuckled and said: "Maybe it's related, maybe it's not. I dare not make a conclusion. After all, Nanyang United Trading Company is a company with a long history. It can be traced back to the period of the Nanyang United Mutual Aid Association and even the reactionary Nanyang United Struggle."
During the Salvation Society, no one dared to say that they knew everything about the company. Maybe the core members of the Wang family knew, but they are no longer here. The time I took over the Nanyang United Trading Company was still short, and many of the confusing accounts before that have disappeared.
It was canceled due to company reorganization.”
"Furthermore, this is not the first day Deputy Palace Master Xie has been the Deputy Palace Master. About this, the Master should know better than me. As early as when the Master was still the chief deputy master of Ziwei Hall, Deputy Palace Master Xie
The Lord was already working in the Borneo Taoist Government, and at that time, I was idle at home, and Chief Qi was still in Ziweitang, a subordinate of the real person in charge."
If you blame the dead person when something happens, you will die without any evidence.
Yao Shu corrected: "Chief Qi was not my subordinate when he was in Ziweitang. He has always been directly subordinate to the Master. Only the Master knows what he has done, and I cannot interfere."
Chen Shuwen's heart moved, "There's no need to tell the difference so clearly. Master Donghua, Master Zhangfu, and Chief Qi all came from Ziweitang. They are all one family. Since they are a family, they should naturally treat each other with harmony.
It’s expensive.”
Yao Shu looked at Chen Shuwen: "Is there any discord between the three of us?"
Chen Shuwen avoided Yao Shu's gaze: "Only three real people know whether there is harmony or discord. How can I, an outsider, know?"
Yao Shu did not dwell on this topic, and implicitly said: "Let's talk about it today, Lao Chen, I have always thought that you are a smart person, and a sensible person. You are far more sensitive to many things.
Many high-quality Taoist priests, to a certain extent, are more than enough for you to be a real person. So even though I am very busy, I still have to take time to talk to you. Facing the current problems in Borneo, what should you do in the future and where should you go?
You must know where to go."
Chen Shuwen stood up and said: "Shu Wen must bear in mind the teachings of the Master."
Time returns to the present.
Zhang Yuelu had already passed through the door of Sheji Palace. The spiritual officials on both sides stood tall in the heavy rain, not moving at all despite the rain washing away the armor of the spiritual officials.
"That's what happened. Old Chen wanted to make a report to you, but he was afraid that it would be unsafe and someone would take advantage of him, so he immediately made a report to Mr. Xu in person." Sun Yongfeng was half a body behind when making this report.
concluding remarks.
Zhang Yuelu's face could not tell what he was thinking. The environment would force everyone in this environment to learn Chengfu. Young Taoist priests such as Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were relatively good. Some elderly Taoist priests were like zombies, except for the occasional blur in their eyes.
It moves without any other changes. This is the so-called joy and anger that cannot be expressed in color, and even a little penetrating.
Lin Yuanmiao, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, "Do you want to inform Chief Qi?"
Zhang Yuelu's first reaction was to reject it: "It's not necessary. He has a lot of things to do over there, and he has to prepare to hand over to Li Yongyan."
Lin Yuanmiao said: "Old Chen was promoted and appointed by Chief Qi. Now someone wants to involve Old Chen, and they want to involve Chief Qi. If it concerns Chief Qi, Chief Qi must be aware of it in advance.
.”
Zhang Yuelu thought for a moment and realized that this was indeed the case, and then said, "Okay then, go and inform Tianyuan."
With that said, Zhang Yuelu handed his sutra basket to Lin Yuanmiao.
Lin Yuanmiao turned around and disappeared into the vast curtain of rain - he did not have to participate in the Palace Master's meeting, and Zhang Yuelu, as the chief of the Taoist Palace, had his own residence in Sheji Palace.
It's rainy here in Nanyang, but the sun is shining brightly in the southern continent.
The conversation between Qi Xuansu and Huangfuji has come to an end. The two of them had a very happy conversation. If nothing else happens, the Southern Continent will end early.
Huangfu Ji stood up and suggested: "How about we also imitate Westerners and shake hands?"
Regardless of the fact that the middle and lower classes in the Southern Continent are very resistant to Westerners' practices, which has almost become a correctness, in fact, the senior officials of Xidaomen are proficient in Western learning, and even many of the senior officials of Xidaomen had experience of living in the Western Continent when they were young.
.
Qi Xuansu did not refuse, stood up and shook hands with Huangfu Ji.
The scenery outside the window just became the background for the two of them.
At this moment, Qi Xuansu felt a prompt from the sutra urn and found out that it was Zhang Yuelu, so he apologized to Huangfu Ji: "Your younger brother and sister Zhang are looking for me."
Huangfu Ji joked: "Should I avoid it? So as not to disturb you."
Qi Xuansu waved his hand and said: "Your sister-in-law Zhang has only said a handful of love words. You can't disturb us."
With that said, Qi Xuansu connected the sutra urn, but to his surprise, it was not Zhang Yuelu, but Lin Yuanmiao.
Qi Xuansu's first reaction was that something had happened to Zhang Yuelu.
Lin Yuanmiao said: "Chief Qi, Chief Zhang is about to attend the Taoist Palace Master's meeting, so let me inform you on her behalf."
Qi Xuansu already had a bad premonition. If it was an ordinary matter, there was no need for Zhang Yuelu to be unable to wait even this little time. He could wait until the palace master's meeting was over. Since he couldn't wait, it meant that he couldn't delay it. It was very likely that Zhang Yuelu was participating in the palace.
