The Fourth Financial Crisis

After watching Yang Lu leave the reception room, Fang Jian couldn't help but turned his head and asked: "Headmaster Chen, you really admire Consultant Yang!"

Chen Ming held the Mountain Eagle Sword and said calmly: "Talents are rare! If the Mountain Eagle Sect wants to develop and grow, it is not enough to just defeat the Haiya Sect on the side of the bed. It must recruit talents who can take charge of its own affairs. Fees alone Fan and Huan'an's gang can only protect themselves wisely and put their corpses in plain food, so what hope does the Mountain Eagle Faction have?"

"But Yang Lu belongs to Li Qingyang!"

"So what? After the death of President Li Qingyang, it's still unclear whether the entire Qingning Chamber of Commerce can exist!" At this point, Chen Ming paused for a moment and considered his words again, "That's not nice to say. If so, if Mr. Li died before the start of the overseas battlefield, the eldest lady of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce would definitely not be able to walk out of the overseas battlefield alive. And Elder Cheng Shuying once told me personally that Mr. Li’s lifespan will most likely not last that long! "

Fang Jiancai looked at Chen Ming in surprise: "You mean, someone wants to kill Li Qingning?"

Chen Ming smiled coldly and said: "During the Third Lingshi Financial Crisis, countless cultivators died because of the currency reformers. I don't know how many people wanted Li Qingyang to pay with blood! Over the years, Li Qingyang's family has not produced cultivators. , but they all died on the battlefield outside the territory, do you think this is just a coincidence?"

Fang Jiancai had not studied Li Qingyang's family members before. After all, every powerful cultivator would have countless juniors in the family. These great cultivators would often only choose the juniors with the best spiritual qualifications for training.

However, spiritual root qualifications cannot be inherited. Even some Nascent Soul stage monks who have tens of thousands of descendants may not be able to find a descendant with mid-level spiritual root qualifications.

For example, the family of Ren Tianyuan, the supreme elder of the Infinite Sword Sect, has only produced a few descendants of low-grade spiritual roots in a whole 1,000 years, and they can't find any heirs who can inherit his mantle.

Because of this, there are not many second-generation immortals in the world of cultivation. Many great monks have a closer relationship with their direct disciples than with their direct descendants.

Unless they are second-generation immortals like Li Qingning, who have extraordinary spiritual talents and extremely good looks, ordinary second-generation immortals with poor spiritual qualifications will basically have no sense of existence.

Fang Jiancai had never heard of the situation of other members of Li Qingyang's family, and it was a very normal phenomenon in the world of cultivation.

But when I heard that none of Li Qingyang's descendants with spiritual roots survived the battlefield outside the territory, I couldn't help but gasped: "Good guy, someone wants to make Mr. Li extinct!"

Chen Ming did not respond immediately to Fang Jiancai. Instead, he stood up with the Mountain Eagle Sword and slowly walked to the terrace of the teahouse, taking in a panoramic view of the entire Tianshu City.

He took a deep look at Tianshu City, which had been destroyed by monsters, shook his head and sighed: "Reform is not about treating guests to dinner, it is about touching interests, and even killing people! Currency during the Third Lingshi Financial Crisis The system reform is like this, so why is the current social security system reform in Zhongzhou not the same? I didn’t fully understand this before, but now I am convinced! As the leader of the Mountain Eagle Sect, I cannot absolve myself from the blame for this disaster. !”

Thinking of Li Qingning's situation, Fang Jiancai nodded thoughtfully and said, "I remember that Li Qingning reached the eighth level of Qi Refining five years ago, but President Li refused to let her participate in the last extraterritorial battlefield trial. Instead, he asked her to She has wasted three years in the Dzogchen realm of Qi refining, and now it seems that this is also to give her more ability to protect herself!"

"After all, Li Qingning is the most talented junior among Mr. Li over the years. If she cannot even leave the battlefield outside the territory, this legendary cultivation economist may really be extinct!"

Through Chen Ming's interpretation, Fang Jiancai suddenly figured out a lot of things: "No wonder President Li invited the leader of Yufeng Sect, Yi Fangda, and the Supreme Elder of Zijin Pavilion, Tong Xingu, to create the most luxurious refining machine in history. Qi period magic weapon, it turns out that the famous sword Xunfeng is for Li Qingning to use for self-defense on the battlefield outside the territory!"

Chen Ming withdrew his gaze from the dilapidated Tianshu City, nodded slightly and said: "Yes, the production cost of Xunfeng has far exceeded that of ordinary Golden Core magic weapons. If the danger Li Qingning faced was not great, how could President Li pay Such a high price? This cannot be explained by a simple word of doting!"

Looking at Chen Ming's back, Fang Jiancai said curiously: "Master Chen, how do you know so much about the situation of President Li's family? I remember that you and President Li probably have nothing to do with each other, right?"

"I know these things because I am the strongest man in the southeastern coastal area of ​​Zhongzhou!" Chen Ming's answer was very unexpected. After noticing Fang Jiancai's surprised look, he explained in a deep voice: "You may not know , not long after Li Qingning came to Haiya City, someone came to me, offered me an extremely outrageous price, and asked me to personally get rid of Li Qingning!"

The price that could be described as outrageous by the head of the Dignified Mountain Eagle Sect, Chen Ming's implication was already very obvious.

When he saw it, he was surprised and said: "Is it the Yuanying monk who asked you to take action?"

Chen Ming and Fang Jiancai have been friends for decades. Looking at the friendship between the two, Chen Ming decided to reveal a little more information: "The person responsible for contacting me is just a messenger. I only know who is standing behind this person." It shouldn't be a monk at the Nascent Soul stage in Zhongzhou, otherwise the other party wouldn't need to ask me to take action on my behalf. As for who this person is, I just have some guesses, so I won't mention it for now. It was only then that I realized, How many enemies does President Li have lurking in the dark?"

"So...you directly rejected the other party's request?"

Chen Ming said with a smile: "Of course, I am not a killer from Heyu Pavilion, and I would not be so greedy as to do such a crazy thing. On the territory of Wuliang Sword Sect, I would assassinate the current spiritual stone reserve for foreign forces. The great-granddaughter of a bank president, no matter how high the offer is, I will never accept it!"

"So you just mentioned that you are serious about looking for opportunities to poach Yang Lu to the Mountain Eagle Faction in the future?"

Chen Ming nodded and said: "Thousands of armies are easy to come by, but one general is hard to find! Can a person selected by President Li to be his own person be an ordinary person? At least he must be a talent of the level of Xu Yannan in Haiya City! I think this person is very knowledgeable. Current affairs, knowing how to advance and retreat, once he sees that the Qingning Chamber of Commerce is in a doomed situation and is surrounded by enemies on all sides, he will not refuse my invitation!"

"Master Chen really cherishes talents!"

Chen Ming glanced at the dilapidated Tianshu City again and said: "Compared to the Haiya system, our Tianshu City has a shallow foundation and lacks independent management talents. Although our enemies are well prepared for this beast disaster, but Fei Fan and Huan An are the losers who are to blame for such serious consequences. If you want to lead the Mountain Eagle Faction to rise, you can't rely on me alone, you must recruit talents!"

Fang Jiancai looked at Chen Ming with slightly surprised eyes and said, "I thought that after Tianshu City suffered this disaster, you would be depressed for a while, but I didn't expect that your fighting spirit is still so high!"

"The Mountain Eagle Faction is the face of Elder Cheng Shuying. I believe Elder Cheng will get enough compensation for our Mountain Eagle Faction!" Chen Ming's face became solemn when he mentioned the current situation of the Mountain Eagle Faction, "As for fighting spirit, I can How many setbacks have you experienced in bringing the Mountain Eagle Sect from internal and external difficulties to today? If it is so easy to become demoralized, then I am not worthy of being the head of the Mountain Eagle Sect!"

Fang Jiancai also solemnly promised: "Before leaving, Elder Cheng Shuying has stated that he will do his best to help the Mountain Eagle Sect overcome the difficulties. I will also fully support the work of Master Chen on behalf of the Gongde Hall!"

Chen Ming nodded and said, "Thank you very much for meeting me, brother!"

Fang Jiancai waved his hands and said, "We have known each other for many years. If you have any difficulties, just ask!"
