Chapter 260: Do I Still Need to Worry About His Influence?
"You go back first, there are new arrangements, I will inform you as soon as possible."
After sending the shopkeeper Mei away in one sentence, Director Chen immediately set off from the gang sub-station and went to Wei Chi Mansion, preparing to report the news to the deputy gang leader Wei Chi Jiang.
Originally, for a trivial matter like a lesson to Ling Jiuqiu, Wei Chijiang had already ordered him to be fully responsible, and he didn't need to ask Wei Chijiang for instructions on all the details of the process, he just needed to wait for the lesson to order Jiuqiu before reporting the results.
After all, as one of the deputy leaders of the top gang True Dragon Gang, Wei Chijiang has a high position and time, so it is impossible for him to do everything himself, and he only cares about the results of teaching Ling Jiuqiu, and does not care about how Director Chen thinks of ways to teach the other party.
As a subordinate, what Chen has to do is to directly present the results that the superior wants to the other party.
Merely.
The situation is different now.
Now Ling Jiuqiu is too dazzling, almost the center of the entire Tongyuan City, once they design a trap to harm Ling Jiuqiu, it is likely to cause a lot of shock, which will cause their tricks to be shattered.
According to Director Chen's previous thoughts, he was ready to let Qianhe Commercial Bank and Ling Jiuqiu maintain cooperation, and when the scale of cooperation between the two sides reached a certain level, they would use various small means to trick each other.
So-called petty means, including but not limited to:
During the test, the pill was transferred, so that Ling Jiuqiu could bear the loss of the pill, and at the same time, he must also compensate the Qianhe Commercial Bank in accordance with the contract.
Or, after special treatment is given to the elixir delivered by Ling Jiuqiu, an imperceptible poison is injected into it, and after it is sold to others, there will be an accident with the elixir, not to mention the compensation for the loss, once the trouble is big, the Alchemist Association may even deprive Ling Jiuqiu of his status as an alchemist.
Of course, the first method must be established on a certain scale of cooperation between the two sides to be useful, and a small cooperation like this now, even if it makes Jiuqiu a handful, it will only make Ling Jiuqiu lose a few thousand taels of silver, and it will not hurt his muscles and bones at all.
The second method will also cause a certain loss to the reputation of the firm, and even affect the business of the firm in the short term, after all, the pill is tested and sold by the Thousand Crane Firm, no matter how difficult the toxicity is, in the eyes of the guests, the reputation of the Thousand Crane Firm is destined to be greatly affected.
In addition to these two methods, Director Chen had other similar insidious methods in his heart, all of which were able to ruthlessly trap Jiuqiu.
However, no matter what insidious little tricks are, when they are exposed to everyone's eyes, they will not have the original effect, but will only damage the reputation of Chizuru Firm.
"The current Ling Jiuqiu is no longer the Ling Jiuqiu before, any of his movements may attract the attention of the entire Tongyuan City, once we make any moves against him, it may become the center of the whole city's conversation, so not only can we not trap him, but it is easy to eat the consequences."
"Gang Master Wei Chi, do we still have to act according to the previous plan?"
After Director Chen saw Wei Chijiang, he respectfully asked for instructions.
Wei Chijiang frowned: "I've only been in retreat for a few days, has something big happened to Jiuqiu?" Why is he so influential now? ”
Director Chen immediately recounted Ling Jiuqiu's challenge to Dongfang Rui and Yan Haifeng a few days ago, and finally said: "Regarding all kinds of news about Ling Jiuqiu, the entire Tongyuan City has been hotly discussed for several days, and today, not only has it not stopped at all, but it has intensified, and even continues to spread to the entire Liancang Domain. ”
"Different from the discussion after the entrance competition, this time, everyone's topic center is only Ling Jiuqiu, a protagonist, and almost everyone's eyes are focused on him."
Although he didn't say it explicitly, the subconscious meaning was obvious—Ling Jiuqiu was too dazzling now, and it was really not suitable to make any small moves on him.
Wei Chijiang's eyes changed for a while.
From the initial shock, to the silence later.
Until the end.
He looked at Principal Chen coldly.
"What do you mean, I'm the deputy leader of the True Dragon Gang, the great grandmaster of the Vientiane Realm, and if I want to teach a little kid in the Spirit Sea Realm, I still need to care about the influence of the other party?"
Director Chen hurriedly bowed his body to the end, almost forming a right angle of ninety degrees, and said honestly: "My subordinates don't dare!" ”
Yu Chijiang snorted coldly.
"I, Wei Chijiang, act, there is no need to look ahead and backwards, weigh the pros and cons, and the most important thing is to vent the breath in my heart."
"Go back, don't ask me for this kind of trivial matter again, just report it to me when there is a result."
Mr. Chan claimed yes.
After he withdrew from Wei Chijiang's cultivation room in a sincere panic, the expression on his face was full of helplessness.
"If you really have no scruples, why don't you just kill Ling Jiuqiu? Instead, I was asked to do such a troublesome thing. ”
Director Chen complained in his heart.
If the matter of Jiuqiu is exposed, the operation of the business bank will inevitably be affected, and as the general person in charge of the major industries in Tongyuan City, he will inevitably be responsible for this.
Although this matter was ordered by Wei Chijiang, it was impossible for him to say so, so he could only bear it silently.
If the leader wants to be angry, he just needs to say a word, he must arrange it in a hurry, and he needs to bear all the consequences.
"It's hard!"
Director Chen sighed.
He began to think of a better way.
It is necessary not only to teach Ling Jiuqiu a hard lesson, but also to reduce the flaws as much as possible, so as not to expose the matter and affect the reputation and image of the firm.
……
The other side.
After Ling Jiuqiu left the Thousand Crane Trading House, he returned to the academy dormitory to cultivate, until someone came with a message - Lord Leng summoned him.
As the person in charge of the second-level branch of Tongyuan City in the Eight Directions Martial Arts Arena, although Director Leng is not busy on weekdays, he will not take the initiative to summon any true disciples.
Therefore, after Ling Jiuqiu got the news, he went to the Bafang Martial Arts Arena as soon as possible and met Master Leng in a small reception room.
"I heard you've been studying alchemy lately?"
Director Leng asked straight to the point.
"Yes, it's been some time since I learned alchemy." Ling Jiuqiu nodded.
"I have no intention of investigating you, but a subordinate has seen you entering and leaving the Thousand Crane Firm more than once, and you are holding a pill box in your hand, so I want to ask, do you have any cooperation with them?"
"Yes."
"The Thousand Cranes Trading House is an industry under the True Dragon Gang, and Shi Huili, who you killed in the entrance competition, is the true disciple of the True Dragon Gang, and Chi Jiang, the deputy leader of the True Dragon Gang, was still a little unhappy about this at that time, in addition, Dongfang Rui, whom you defeated a few days ago, is also a true disciple of the True Dragon Gang."
After Chief Leng finished speaking, he didn't say anything more, but Ling Jiuqiu already understood what the other party meant.
He made the high-level of the True Dragon Gang unhappy, and now he is cooperating with the industry under the True Dragon Gang, and no one can say what contradictions there will be in the future.
Even, in the current cooperation between the two sides, it is difficult to say whether the other party has a conspiracy.
