On the third floor of Tianxuan Pavilion, all the members of the Youth Sect arrived.

The elder surnamed Bai, named Bai Dong, is the elder in charge of the transfer of teachers in the college.

Elder Bai was the first to speak: "Dean Wu, the people from the Youth Sect have arrived, shouldn't you tell us about the situation in the No. 1 mine?" ”

Dean Wu was originally impatient, but now he suddenly changed his previous state, with the appearance of an old god.

"Say what? I don't have much to say, and I don't know anything about it right now. Dean Wu spoke.

Elder Bai was already at odds with Dean Wu, but seeing him behaving like this at this moment, he immediately slapped the table and shouted: "You don't pretend to be confused for me, if you want to say that you don't know the current situation of No. 1 Mine, then forget it, but you can at least tell everyone about the construction situation, road map, personnel allocation, existing risks and hidden dangers before the accident in No. 1 Mine, and so on." ”

Dean Wu still said unhurriedly: "I have a report on the construction situation at the school committee every month, if you don't remember, you can go through the meeting minutes, and the roadmap should also be in it." As for the distribution of personnel, Bai Dong, you are in charge of manpower, you should be very clear, as for the risks and hidden dangers, now it is collapsing inside, there are hidden dangers everywhere, talking too much will confuse the children's audio-visual, it is better to ......"

Before Dean Wu could finish speaking, Elder Bai interrupted: "Wu Dakui, you don't give me a sloppy eye, every time you report the situation of the No. 1 mine on the school committee, you avoid the important and trivialize, and the route map is even more like the Year of the Monkey......

Dean Wu had an innocent expression, "Elder Bai, you can't talk nonsense, whenever I report to avoid the serious, I always report truthfully." As for the route map, No. 1 mine is an old mine, and there has been no new line for so many years, so the route map has naturally not been updated. ”

Elder Bai was furious at this moment.

"Mine 1 is indeed an old mine, but haven't you been mining new mines lately!?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the conference room immediately became strange.

Dean Wu's eyes narrowed, and his expression was serious.

Elder Bai also knew that he was dizzy and speechless at the moment.

The rest of the elders present also behaved very naturally, obviously Elder Bai's topic was a little sensitive.

The people of the juvenile faction present also had different expressions, and the eldest grandson, Si Qin, and Lu Xiaoran were well aware of the mystery, and they all chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb, looking down at their toes.

Only Tang Yuyan and a few people didn't understand the interests involved, and set their eyes on Dean Wu to find out.

Dean Wu slowly spoke, "Elder Bai, where did you hear this rumor? ”

Elder Bai didn't plan to fight with Dean Wu at this point, so he simply pierced the window paper and said, "Is it a rumor that Dean Wu knows best, but it's just that you are still so secretive at this juncture, is the collapse of the mine road caused by this new mining?" Is the new mine energy stable? Will there be a bigger explosion in the later stages? You don't talk about these things, so can you guarantee the safety of these children entering the mine? ”

Elder Bai's words directly involved the youth faction, and the eldest grandson, Lu Xiaoran and others scolded in their hearts, "Old fox." ”

At this time, Dean Wu was also completely enraged by Elder Bai, and said: "You don't mess around here, I don't know what kind of disaster will occur in the later stage of the mine collapse, and this is not a teaching task, how can I guarantee it." If you are really worried about the safety of your students, then you should mobilize teachers to rescue them now. ”

"You ......," Elder Bai pointed at Dean Wu.

Elder Li interrupted the argument between the two.

"Okay, okay, don't make any noise, the top priority now is to figure out the situation in the mine, determine the casualties, property losses, and wait for the dean to come back, so we can have an explanation."

Elder Li's mediation eased the tense atmosphere in the conference room, but it did not play a substantive role, Dean Wu was still unwilling to be open and honest, and Elder Bai was always pressing step by step, and finally the Juvenile Pie had to withdraw from the conference room and come to the side lounge to discuss the next move.

In the lounge, the young pie didn't know where to start for a while, and the eldest grandson was still thinking back to the situation in the conference room just now.

Lin Yue'er opened her mouth and said, "I think Elder Bai is right, Dean Wu has something to hide. So far, we have no idea about the current situation of Mine 1, and I don't think we can take this mission. ”

"Yo, it's rare for our little follower of Boss Lu to have his own opinions this time." Li Yuan opened his mouth and quipped.

"Dead fatty, who do you say is a little follower, you are a dashing little follower." Lin Yue'er said angrily.

"It sounds like a vinegar thing, it's like someone's accusation against me." Lu Xiaoran was in the mood to joke with Li Yuan about Lin Yue'er at this time.

"Yes, Boss Lu, it must be because I usually get too close to you, you don't accompany someone, someone points the finger at me." Li Yuan echoed.

"You ......" Lin Yue'er was the opponent of these two people, and she was defeated as soon as she met, and she was angry and ashamed at this time.

"Okay, if you two can catch up with half of your lip work, you won't be beaten by me again and again." Tang Yuyan stood up to defend Lin Yue'er.

Tang Yuyan saw that Lin Yue'er was ridiculed by the two, and the eldest grandson on the side was still indifferent, so she pointed the finger at the eldest grandson.

"You called us here to see a few old men in the house arguing." Tang Yuyan's momentum came up, and the eldest grandson couldn't hold it down.

The eldest grandson said helplessly: "I didn't expect them to quarrel like this." ”

Tang Yuyan's tone softened slightly, and asked, "Then do you say that you will accept this task?" I think what Yue'er said makes sense, this task is a bit risky, and besides, Dean Wu was secretive in the conference room just now, and Elder Bai was pressing forward step by step, there must be something greasy in this, we need to consider it carefully. ”

"Even you can see that there is a cat in this, so there must be a cat in it." The eldest grandson said a word of nonsense, but when he saw Tang Yuyan's raised fist, he immediately forgave him.

"I decided to take on this task for two reasons: first, it is an urgent task, and if it is completed, the reward will be very high; Secondly, our youth faction has been too strong recently, and rushing to the top of the Hundred Leagues in such a short period of time will inevitably attract the jealousy and speculation of the people around us, and taking on such a task can not only prove our strength, but also earn us enough prestige. That's how I decided to take on this mission. The eldest grandson said.

"But you didn't expect this to involve the entanglement of interests between the various factions of the academy." Siqin said.

The eldest grandson nodded and continued: "I just thought back to the quarrel between Dean Wu and Elder Bai, and at present, we can guess that the No. 1 mine may indeed be caused by the collapse of the new mine, and the situation will become more complicated, but if it really involves the new mine, the academy will definitely not let the mercenary group from the outside world interfere, and will try to find out the situation as soon as possible and deal with this accident." ”

"That way, if we take on the task, the reward will be even greater." Lu Xiaoran and the eldest grandson looked at each other and smiled.

"Then you have to have a life." Tang Yuyan snorted coldly.

"I don't think I can take it, so let's let the academy send teachers to investigate." Bai Chenming disagreed.

"We've already entered that conference room, and Dean Wu won't let us give up our mission easily." Si Qin said.

Lin Yue'er and the others were a little puzzled.

"You have all seen the situation just now, there must be a greasy situation in the No. 1 mine, which must also involve the interests of many parties, if you send teachers to investigate, there may be more forces behind each teacher, and then screening and screening is a time-consuming work, and Dean Wu will definitely strongly recommend his own teachers to investigate, and it will be difficult for the forces represented by Elder Bai to intervene in it." Si Qin said.

The eldest grandson nodded, and then said: "So it's difficult for us to get out now, so let's hurry up and prepare first." Chenming will have to trouble you to go to the conference room to find the relevant materials of Elder Li to come to the No. 1 mine, the information of the trapped people, the road map of the No. 1 mine, etc., in short, the more detailed the better, after the materials arrive, Yue'er and the rainshirt will analyze it to find a passage that we can enter. After the analysis, let's decide on the next step. ”

Bai Chenming and the others nodded.

Seeing that the eldest grandson stopped, Tang Yuyan spoke: "It's over, what will the rest of the people do next?" ”

Before the eldest grandson could speak, Lu Xiaoran preemptively said, "Wait, wait for someone to come to us." ”

Tang Yuyan was confused.

"Who do you think will be the first to come to you?" Lu Xiaoran looked at the eldest grandson.

"It should be Dean Wu."

……

The quarrel in the conference room on the third floor of Tianxuan Pavilion finally ended with Dean Wu leaving the table, and Elder Bai's face flushed, indicating that his mood was not stable at this time. The rest of the people present had their own thoughts.

In another lounge on the third floor, Dean Wu and the eldest grandson were among them.

"You didn't take the task?!" Dean Wu patted the armrest and stood up from his seat in anger.

Seeing the dean stand up, the eldest grandson also stood up helplessly, and said: "Dean, we are a group of two-year-old and three-year-olds, this task is too risky, the most important thing is that you are not willing to confess the true situation in the No. 1 mine to us......

"Who said that I didn't confess to you, I was in the conference room just now, I didn't want Old Man Bai to listen. Could it be that you stinky boys believe the nonsense of the old man Bai, and really think that I want you to go in and die? Dean Wu interrupted.

"Of course not, of course we are of the same mind as the dean, and I don't believe a word of Elder Bai's words." The eldest grandson looked loyal.

Dean Wu's face softened slightly, and he said, "The first time I got your information, I decided that this mission was none other than you. Do you know why? ”

The eldest grandson continued to flatter, "Because we are all under the leadership of you, the dean. ”

Dean Wu nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "No wonder even the old stubborn Wu Lao said that you kid is clever." ”

"Okay, this mission will not be as difficult as you think, there is a secret passage in the No. 1 mine, which is extremely solid, it is an escape passage left at the beginning of the construction of the No. 1 mine, not many people know about it, and the age is too old, and now there are only a few of us old guys who still remember." After that, Dean Wu threw a jade slip to the eldest grandson.

The eldest grandson used his spiritual power to probe the jade slip, remembering that the location of this passage was indeed very hidden, but it could lead directly to the central control room.

After the eldest grandson wrote it down, he returned the jade slip to Dean Wu.

After Dean Wu took the jade slip, seeing that the eldest grandson had not left, he said, "What? Still have any questions? ”

After a moment's hesitation, the eldest grandson spoke, "Dean, the student does have a question, and I hope to answer it." ”

"If you have a fart, let it go, Lao Tzu hates her mother-in-law the most."

"Did Mine 1 really discover a new mine?"

Dean Wu narrowed his eyes again, and the eldest grandson immediately felt the pressure emanating from him, but the eldest grandson did not back down at all, met his gaze, and said, "The student has no intention of snooping on the secrets of the academy, but is there a new mine in the No. 1 mine?" Is there any relationship between the collapse and the mining of the new mine? These questions are related to the success or failure of this mission and the safety of students and trapped people, and students dare not be careless. ”

Dean Wu's face was expressionless, but he was thinking about the words of the eldest grandson in his heart, in fact, to be honest, he was helpless to send these children to complete this task, and he was also very worried in his heart, and he was not as relaxed as he showed just now.

Seeing that the eldest grandson did not retreat, Dean Wu was relieved.

"The No. 1 mine has indeed discovered a new mine, and this collapse is also related to the mining of the new mine."

After receiving the dean's affirmative reply, the eldest grandson looked hesitant.

Seeing that the eldest grandson had the intention of retreating, the dean was immediately displeased, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, how did you teach you the first lesson of admission?" ”

"There is no 100% safe mission, as a mercenary, you can only complete the mission safely with 100% courage and determination." The eldest grandson replied.

"It's not enough to remember it in your head, you have to remember it here." Dean Wu pointed to his heart.

The eldest grandson realized, and the hesitation in his eyes disappeared.

Seeing this, Dean Wu nodded and said, "I don't know the current situation of Mine 1, but I can assure you of the safety of the secret passage." ”

The eldest grandson was a little puzzled.

"Because this secret passage was built by me and Wu Lao." Dean Wu said confidently.

With Dean Wu's words, the eldest grandson was also reassured a lot, with the secret passage that Wu Lao and Dean participated in building, even if he was old, his safety was guaranteed.

After the worries in the eldest grandson's heart were dispelled, he began to make small calculations in his heart.

"Dean, the collapse of the No. 1 mine, even if the trapped people can be rescued safely, it will definitely have a big impact." The eldest grandson spoke.

The dean had already thought of this, and frowned: "That's true, now that we can rescue the trapped people, we can still gain a certain degree of initiative, so you know the great significance of this mission." ”

The eldest grandson nodded, and said with determination: "The students will do their best to solve problems for the dean......

"Stop, stop, your kid's sycophant kung fu is really a set."

After the eldest grandson smiled, his expression suddenly became serious, and he said: "Dean, there is still a doubt in the student's heart, although there are many uncertain factors in the new mining, but the timing of this landslide incident is really a bit of a coincidence. Besides, the No. 1 mine involves many interests, and the outside world has always wanted to get involved in this piece of fat, will it be ......?"

The eldest grandson didn't finish speaking, but the meaning was already obvious.

When Dean Wu heard this, he was once again impressed by the eldest grandson, and he was also sighing in his heart that the eldest grandson could have such a mature mind at such a young age, and his judgment of the situation was very keen.

"Hmm...... That's what I'm worried about, and that's one of the main reasons why I've chosen you for this mission...... I came to you, and I have an errand to arrange for you, and you are doing your best to find out the cause of this accident for me, and try to be as detailed as possible. Dean Wu spoke.

Even if the dean didn't mention this, the students were full of curiosity about the cause of the accident, and since they went in, they would definitely investigate. It's just that through the information we collected in the early stage, the profits generated by the No. 1 mine every year have always been the lion's share, and the branches and even the school have complained about it. If my prediction is correct, when I get out of this common room, Elder White's people will find me, and even more others. The eldest grandson spoke.

"And what are you going to do?"

"The students must be able to put it off verbally, but there are some sensitive matters, and the leaders and students of some schools do not dare to disobey the law, as for the interests involved in the new mine...... The students think that the Institute should be able to take a step back and take a step back, otherwise the students are afraid that it will be unfavorable to our Academy. ”

Dean Wu nodded and said, "Good boy, he is worthy of being a student that Wu Lao fancies." Now that you've thought of this layer, I'll give you another reassurance. Do you think that the Qizi Institute can dominate in the interests of the No. 1 mine because of our hard work? Or do you think that I, Wu Dakui, will enrich my own pockets and then bribe all forces? Remember, in school, the interests of Qingteng always come first, and no one force can dominate it. The reason why the Qizi Institute has been able to occupy the majority of the No. 1 mine is also the decision of the school, and it is also for the sake of Qingteng. And what you see is not the essence, in the war of interests of No. 1 mine, the competition between our various forces is nothing more than to get eggs from this basket to that basket, no matter how it changes, it will end up in this nest of Qingteng. But this incident is different, and some people may no longer represent Qingteng. Dean Wu spoke.

The eldest grandson's expression was surprised, he did not suspect that Dean Wu would enrich his private pockets on the issue of the interests of No. 1 Mine, and there was any unsightly deed, but he also did not expect that the Qizi Academy could dominate one of them, and there was actually the support of the school behind it.

However, for this incident, there will be hands from the outside world that want to reach in, and the eldest grandson has long thought that this is also part of his next negotiation plan with the dean.

The eldest grandson paused for a moment, in the dean's opinion, the eldest grandson was digesting the information he had just gotten, but in fact, the eldest grandson was considering it in his heart.

Because the next negotiation between the eldest grandson and the dean is really risky.

In the end, the eldest grandson made a decision and said, "Dean, the student wants to analyze the next situation of the No. 1 mine with you. Even if the students successfully complete this mission, it is difficult to suppress the impact of the incident, even if the college blocks the information strictly, but there is no impermeable wall, it will not be too long, the outside world will inevitably spread the matter all over the city, and the college will be under great pressure at that time. ”

Dean Wu nodded and said, "Indeed, at that time, my old puppet Wu Dakui can still be a scoundrel like he did on the school committee, but he can't hang the name of Qingteng." Alas, it gives me a headache just thinking about it...... Forget it, leave it to the dean to decide. ”

Indeed, as Dean Wu said, if this incident does not happen and the new mine mining goes smoothly, the interests of No. 1 Mine will still be firmly in the hands of Qingteng. However, after the collapse incident, the outside world wantonly instigated public opinion, and the incident fermented again, rising to the point that the college could not manage the No. 1 mine, and then all parties could take the opportunity to get a piece of the pie.

At that time, the name of "Ivy League College" became a constraint, and it would be constrained everywhere when dealing with various forces.

At this time, Dean Wu saw that the eldest grandson did not answer, looked up at the eldest grandson, and an unrealistic idea suddenly appeared in his mind, "This kid is clever, maybe he can think of some ideas." And the eldest grandson's eyes also happened to exude a hint of cunning at this time.

Dean Wu asked tentatively, "Do you have an idea?" ”

"This incident is already unstoppable, so we might as well take advantage of the opportunity that all parties are still waiting for to strike first and catch them off guard."

"First? How to start? ”

"The academy is afraid that it will be hindered in the later stage when dealing with various forces, so why not lead the trouble. Taking advantage of the fact that all parties have not yet acted, they announced the partners of the new mine project in advance, which led the storm of this conflict of interests to the outside of the hospital. The eldest grandson said.

"Outside the hospital? This is indeed a good idea, but who wants to do such a wrongful act at this time. Dean Wu was still frowning, rubbing his chin and thinking.

Dean Wu seemed to think of something, raised his head to look at the eldest grandson, and scolded: "Stinky boy, hurry up and finish speaking, you have a plan in your heart, and you are still adjusting Lao Tzu's appetite here, aren't you?" ”

The eldest grandson hurriedly said that he didn't dare to say a word, and then said: "The student knows that there is a business firm that is willing to bear this turmoil for the college, and it is called Wanyuan Commercial Bank. ”

"Wanyuan Firm? I haven't heard of it, is it the new rise of the Tang Dynasty? We have never heard of such a No. 1 trading house in the Southern Regions. Dean Wu said with some doubts.

"Wanyuan Commercial Bank is a local trading house in the Southern Regions, and it is in Lieyang City, and it is normal that the dean has not heard of it, because it was also established half a year ago, and it has only recently become a rising trend. And the students ...... Barely half of its boss. The eldest grandson confessed.

Dean Wu was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed greatly: "Okay, you stinky boy, before the hair grows, you will learn to talk about business with Lao Tzu." Follow me here for a long time, just for this!? ”

Seeing that Dean Wu was about to go crazy, the eldest grandson hurriedly spoke: "It's not true that the student is scheming and playing tricks with the dean before, but the student is also forced to do so, if I am open and honest from the beginning, it will definitely make the dean think that I have bad intentions, and our conversation may have ended long ago." ”

Seeing that the eldest grandson's attitude was sincere, Dean Wu's face softened slightly, but he still said angrily: "Hmph, isn't it bad intentions now?" ”

Seeing that the dean had given him a chance to explain, the eldest grandson secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said after a sigh of relief: "The student admits that he really wants to seek a benefit from it, but he doesn't mix it up for the sake of the college. ”

"Okay, since you say so, then tell me how you think about the academy. I won't mention the others, as far as your little-known Wanyuan Commercial Firm is concerned, it's not that I underestimate you, and you may be torn to shreds at the beginning of this competition of interests. Dean Wu said mercilessly.

The eldest grandson nodded in approval.

"If Wanyuan Commercial Bank is just my own, it will definitely be wiped out in this competition as you said, but the student also said before that I can only barely be regarded as half a boss of this Wanyuan Commercial Bank, and its other bosses will be its backers to survive in this competition, and at the same time, it can also protect the interests of No. 1 Mine for the academy."

"You kid will talk half like this again, be careful that Lao Tzu will whip you."

The eldest grandson sneered and said, "You have also seen the other members of the Youth Sect, they are all the bosses of Wanyuan Commercial Bank. ”

The eldest grandson didn't continue to explain, but this sentence was enough for the dean to think for a moment.

Several other members of the Youth Faction, of course the dean knows, Si Qin, Lu Xiaoran, Tang Yuyan, Li Yuan, and so on. And the forces represented behind these people are all on the table in today's mainland.

Needless to say, Si Qin is behind the owner of Burning Sun City, and he is also the heaven of the Southern Regions; Behind Lu Xiaoran is Lu Liang Commercial Bank; Behind Tang Yuyan is Tang Wangye; Behind Li Yuan is the Tang Dynasty's household department.

If it is really as the eldest grandson said, then this Wanyuan Commercial Bank is indeed not unknown, but has a great history.

Dean Wu thought for a moment, then still frowned: "Eldest grandson, if what you said is true, then Wanyuan Commercial Bank is indeed not to be underestimated, but the forces represented behind these people will also be the main force in this competition for interests. ”

The eldest grandson shook his head, "Wanyuan Commercial Bank will be the most suitable partner of the academy, if the academy announces its cooperation with Wanyuan Commercial Bank when the forces of all parties have not yet reacted, then the various forces will inevitably turn the spearhead to Wanyuan Commercial Bank at the first time, when the forces of all parties investigate the details of Wanyuan Commercial Bank, the forces with poor strength will naturally break the idea of fishing in troubled waters, and several forces in Wanyuan Commercial Bank will also compete at this time, but no matter what, the war will not burn to the academy again." ”

"Then can you ensure that Wanyuan Commercial Bank protects the interests of the academy in this turmoil?" Dean Wu asked.

The eldest grandson heard Dean Wu's words, and he actually wanted to ask the eldest grandson how to ensure that these bosses of Wanyuan Commercial Bank could be unanimous with the outside world, and at the same time ensure that the interests of the academy were maximized.

The eldest grandson said naturally and firmly, "I believe in my partner. ”

Looking at the eldest grandson at this time, Dean Wu actually had a moment of trance, he seemed to see himself when he was young, and he also had a natural trust in the face of his partner who was born and died.

"And with the cooperation with the academy, Wanyuan Commercial Bank can also dodge many arrows from the shadows." The eldest grandson added.

Dean Wu hesitated for a moment, then slowly spoke: "I must admit that I was persuaded by you, eldest grandson, but I can't decide this matter alone, and I need to wait for the dean to come back before discussing." ”

If you can get Dean Wu's affirmation, and then the school committee has his support, then this matter will be inseparable.

The eldest grandson's face was happy, and Dean Wu said when he saw this: "Stinky boy, don't be in a hurry to be happy first, I have ugly words ahead, even if what you said is out of the blue, but the academy still depends on whether your Wanyuan Commercial Bank is qualified to undertake the project of No. 1 Mine." Also, if you don't finish the errand I arranged for you......"

"Dean, rest assured, the students will do their best to arrange the tasks, and Wanyuan Commercial Bank also welcomes all the leaders of the college to visit at any time." The eldest grandson said confidently.
