The Fourth Financial Crisis

Hearing Jiang Hua'an mention Yaoguang City, all the cultivators present who knew what was going on there showed strange expressions. Even just now, they couldn't help but laugh out loud, which attracted the attention of the surrounding guests. .

However, Li Qingning didn't know what Jiang Hua'an meant, and immediately turned his questioning eyes to Yang Lu.

In a public place in full view of everyone, Yang Lu couldn't directly explain such nonsense to Li Qingning, so he took out the latest issue of "Cultivation Financial Weekly" from his storage bag and handed it to her, while Miss Li turned her head After a quick glance at the headline, he showed a similar weird expression like other insiders.

It turns out that Yaoguang City's social security system reform pilot work has recently caused a huge joke.

Yaoguang City was the first major city to start pilot work on the reform of the social security system. Preparatory work had even begun during the overseas battlefield. Now the official charity hall of the Wuliang Sword Sect in Yaoguang City has been basically completed.

According to a report in Xiuzhen Financial Weekly, in order to attract customers for the official charity hall run by the Wuliang Sword Sect, Jin Yongji, the Lord of Yaoguang City, immediately issued a military order to the special representative sent by the Wuliang Sword Sect to supervise the reform, saying that he would definitely Within two months, all homeless people in the Yaoguang Beach area will be admitted to the official charity.

The inner deacon sent by the Infinite Sword Sect to Yaoguang City originally came to Yaoguang City to take charge of the work with a tough mentality. Hearing such a positive statement from the Lord of Yaoguang City, he was naturally overjoyed and even agreed to the other party's request. Submitted a column to Xiuzhen Financial Weekly, praising Yaoguang City for its high ideological awareness.

Of course, the inner deacon did not simply want to praise Yaoguang City.

Although the deacons of the inner sect of the Wuliang Sword Sect are like imperial ministers in the local sect, their status within the Wuliang Sword Sect is not particularly high, and they can only be regarded as middle-level cadres at best.

Cultivators of this level usually have little chance to appear in the "Cultivation Financial Weekly", and Xi Jinhu will not give such a big face to these middle-level cadres.

However, the reform of the social security system in Zhongzhou is a major event personally sponsored by Lin Jianxing, the leader of the Wuliang Sword Sect. Under this banner, he writes some articles praising virtues to give himself a sense of existence. Even Xi Jinhu cannot refuse his manuscript, otherwise someone will definitely He will use the topic to attack the "Xiu Zhen Financial Weekly" as a hindrance to the major policies of the Wuliang Sword Sect.

Although Xi Jinhu has a crooked butt and receives various red envelopes, Editor Xi will never make such a principled mistake as he has matured. Therefore, this eulogizing article appeared in newspapers almost immediately.

The Lord of Yaoguang City, Jin Yongji, was not a vegetarian. He immediately started arresting people all over the city under the banner of the Wuliang Sword Sect. Whenever cultivators of the Yaoguang Sect saw someone wandering around the city during working hours, they would treat them as unemployed vagrants. They were imprisoned in the Shantang, and there were even businessmen from other places who were directly arrested and charged because they had no guarantee.

Unless the mortals imprisoned in the Shantang can pay a large "certification fee" to prove that they are indeed rich and do not need the help of the Wuliang Sword Sect, otherwise they will be treated like raising pigs in the Shantang of the Wuliang Sword Sect. I will be locked up until the end of time.

And this "certification fee" naturally ended up going into the finances of the Yaoguang Sect.

Faced with the Yaoguang Sect's blatant extortion under the banner of the Wuliang Sword Sect, it was not that no one protested, and some businessmen with backgrounds were even prepared to file a complaint. However, the Yaoguang Sect brought up the supreme instructions of the Wuliang Sword Sect and Lin Jianxing. , characterized this behavior as a betrayal of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and directly sent masters to suppress it with force.

This made the entire Yaoguang City panic, and a large number of mortals and foreign merchants fled to other places as if desperate for their lives. Except for the local cultivators in Yaoguang City who made a fortune, all other parties lost money.

The special representative of Wuliang Sword stationed in Yaoguang City was not aware of the seriousness of the problem at first. He just felt that the intentions of the top leaders of Yaoguang Sect were still good, but that the people below were a little excessive in their execution. However, when he discovered that he had the Golden Wheel of Merit After a layer of it was cut off, he finally realized that something was wrong!

Where are the Fluctlight Sect engaged in reforming the social security system? They were clearly robbing under the banner of the Infinite Sword Sect!

So the deacon of the inner sect immediately went to the door to question the Lord of Yaoguang City, saying that if you are doing this nonsense, aren't you afraid of having your heavenly merit deducted?

However, the Lord of Yaoguang City took out the "Cultivation Financial Weekly" and said that this was all done by your Infinite Sword Sect. Even if Heaven wants to deduct everyone's merit, the merit deducted by our Yaoguang Sect will be half the same as that of your Infinite Sword Sect.

Seeing this, the representative of the Wuliang Sword Sect finally realized that he had fallen into a trap.

Now that Jin Yongji is arresting people and sending them to charity halls under the banner of the Wuliang Sword Sect, the merits deducted from both sides must be almost the same. What's even more terrible is that all the benefits they gained from arresting people are all used by the law enforcement monks of the Fluctuating Light Sect. In the pocket, the Infinite Sword Sect didn't get the last bit.

The other party made it clear that they wanted to give Wuliang Sword some color!

However, the crux of the problem is that the deacon of the Infinite Sword Sect doesn't even know what crime to assign to the other party. Should they be charged with "being too aggressive in completing the tasks assigned by the Infinite Sword Sect"?

To make matters worse, because he had already boasted about his superiority in the "Xiu Zhen Financial Weekly", many local sects who wanted to wait and see the direction of the trend sent people to Yaoguang City to "learn advanced experience in reform." As a result, Yaoguang City followed The news that the Wuliang Sword Sect had turned the charity hall into a prison and arrested people everywhere to collect protection money was exposed in an instant.

Today's Yaoguang City has gone from being a model of advanced reform to the biggest joke in Zhongzhou's social security system reform.

Although Jin Yongji, the leader of Yaoguang City, resigned because of this, Jin Yongji himself became the hero of the Yaoguang sect. He not only solved the financial problems of the sect that had plagued Yaoguang City for many years in one fell swoop, but also repaid part of the loan from Haiya Bank in advance and took the blame. It was pinned to the Infinite Sword Sect.

What happened in Yaoguang City is just a microcosm of the first batch of reformed cities. All local sects participating in the pilot are using various means of non-violence and non-cooperation, resulting in no substantial progress in the reform work so far.

When Jiang Hua'an mentioned Yaoguang City at this time, he obviously wanted to slap Liu Hanxing in the face.

Liu Hanxing's facial muscles twitched slightly, and he reluctantly said: "Reform always takes some detours, and the example of Yaoguang City also reminds us that our work needs to be further solid and detailed."

Jiang Hua'an chuckled and said: "To be practical and detailed requires the manpower of your organization. Elder Liu will definitely not come to Haiya City alone. I thought that the new head of the Zhu family who doesn't know the heights of the sky will come with you today. !”

Liu Hanxing's expression remained unchanged and he said: "On such an important occasion, if a Qi-refining monk like Zhu Ziming can't be brought to the stage, I won't bring him here to embarrass himself. However, the specific work in the future will have to be done by him and the Haiya Department." Handover!”

Jiang Hua'an smiled and said politely: "Elder Liu is responsible for everything, and he is worthy of being the pillar of our Zhongzhou cultivation world. However, I also have a suggestion. Cultivators in our generation should still take the path of immortality as the foundation, and should not involve too much energy in secular affairs. Among them, Elder Liu chose to hand over the specific work to the people below, which I think is indeed a wise move."
