The Fourth Financial Crisis
Chapter 537
Fishing enforcement is not without its success stories.
During the Third Lingshi Financial Crisis, the Shenhuo Sect sent the Nascent Soul Stage Supreme Elder to try to assassinate Lu Yang, the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank at the Qi Refining Stage, at all costs. However, the news of this matter was accidentally leaked, resulting in The Supreme Elder of the Nascent Soul Stage was killed on the spot by Ma Tianyi, the leader of Wuliang Sword Sect who was ambushing nearby.
And this kind of self-defense counterattack did not deduct Ma Tianyi's merits.
If Jiang Hua'an's information is correct, Liu Hanxing brought Ye Chen to Haiya City with great fanfare this time because he wanted to replicate Ma Tianyi's deeds and use the overwhelming combat power of the Nascent Soul monks to bring the strongest combat power of the Haiya department. All allies in one fell swoop.
In order to do this, even Yang Chenglong, the deacon of the inner gate of the Law Enforcement Hall in Haiya City, was kept in the dark!
Because of this, Su Yuanfeng and Han Xinhe were so shocked after hearing the news.
And Jiang Hua'an's next words confirmed their guess: "Yes! It was through the insider of the Wuliang Sword Sect Law Enforcement Hall that I learned about Qiu Longbo's quietly leaving the retreat dojo, so I stopped you from attacking him in advance!"
Jiang Hua'an's explanation made Su Yuanfeng's pupils shrink slightly.
Even Yang Chenglong didn't know about this matter, but Jiang Hua'an found out through some means. This shows that Jiang Hua'an may have placed another person beside Qiu Longbo. This person may not have a close relationship with Qiu Longbo, but he can just grasp it. Qiu Longbo's whereabouts are already very scary.
Although Jiang Hua'an was not sure whether Qiu Longbo secretly left the retreat to protect Ye Chen, the Haiya Sect could not afford this risk.
Hearing Jiang Hua'an's explanation, Su Yuanfeng was very unhappy and said, "Why don't you communicate with us as soon as possible?"
Jiang Hua'an leaned on the back of the chair and said with some disapproval: "We are just a cooperative relationship, and everyone will inevitably have some little secrets of their own. What's more, our confrontation with Lin Jianxing is an intelligence confrontation, and we know some things The fewer people there are, the better, you just need to know that our goals are the same."
Su Yuanfeng immediately raised his eyebrows: "Don't City Lord Jiang still trust us?"
However, Jiang Hua'an just spread his hands innocently and said: "It's not that I don't trust you. This is just like Lin Jianxing didn't distrust Qiu Longbo, but it was because he did not take action personally, but chose to let Qiu Longbo do it for him, which caused the problem in the process of information transmission. This allowed me to obtain this information in advance.”
Seeing Jiang Hua'an directly use what just happened as an example, Su Yuanfeng was speechless.
Han Xinhe continued to ask: "I remember that among the people around Qiu Longbo, there should be no one who has signed a reciprocal agreement with us, right? City Lord Jiang, where did you get the information?"
"President Su can have a friend like Li Feiyu. Isn't it strange that I have several friends from the Infinite Sword Sect?"
Han Xinhe glanced at the expressionless Su Yuanfeng and said: "City Master Jiang's words are too perfunctory. President Su likes to make friends. This is something everyone knows, but you don't leave Haiya City very often!"
"If I said that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, would you believe it?" Jiang Hua'an immediately put on an expression of whether you believe it or not. Without waiting for Han Xinhe to continue asking, he continued to say, "Since you guys If you don’t trust me, then you will question everything I say, and don’t try to trick me. It is absolutely impossible for me to disclose the source of my intelligence to you casually!”
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Yang Lu, as a third party, quickly jumped out to be the peacemaker and said: "In that case, City Lord Jiang is planning to attack Ye Chen in Haiya City?"
Jiang Hua'an nodded, and then shook his head: "We certainly can't sit still and wait for death, but fighting head-on is still the last resort. The Wuliang Sword Sect's closure of the city made things happen suddenly, and we didn't arrange many Jindan masters in Haiya City in advance to help. , in today's Haiya City, we only have four Golden Core Stage monks who can go out."
Yang Lu didn't know the layout of the Haiya system, so he quickly asked: "Who are the four golden elixir stage masters?"
Jiang Hua'an pointed at himself, and then at Su Yuanfeng and said: "President Su and I are two early-stage Jindan monks, and there is also President Su's good friend, the late Jindan sword holder sent by the Hanguang Sword as a guest. Elder Gu Jianming, finally, I have a friend who is in the early stage of the Golden Core of the Infinite Sword Sect and is also here, this is all our strength."
"Even if we go together, I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything to Ye Chen!"
As soon as Jiang Hua'an finished his introduction, Su Yuanfeng couldn't help but curled his lips: "I heard that Liu Hanxing also has four golden elixir-level masters, and two of them are golden elixir-level monks from the Law Enforcement Hall of the Wuliang Sword Sect, which is unusual. The late-stage Jindan monks are even more powerful. If there is a head-on conflict, we will not have the upper hand at all. What’s more, if the two sides really fight, Liu Hanxing will definitely seek foreign aid..."
Yang Lu also added: "And Qiu Longbo and Lin Jianxing may also come to Haiya City in person to suppress the battle!"
Jiang Hua'an chuckled and said: "This is why I want to attack Ye Chen in Haiya City. Haiya City is our home court and is protected by the Haiya Sect's mountain guard formation. Even if a monk in the Nascent Soul stage wants to force his way through, it will not be easy! "
Su Yuanfeng suddenly raised his brows and said: "Are you planning to use the Haiya City Mountain Protection Formation? Although this mountain protection formation has been operated by us for thousands of years, it is barely enough to resist the early Yuanying monks, but if this formation is used Attacking the high-level monks of the Infinite Sword Sect is equivalent to officially raising the flag of rebellion, and even Mo Yunlan won't speak for us!"
Jiang Hua'an did not deny his side's weakness, but nodded and said: "President Su is right, the Haiya City Mountain Protection Formation is just to prevent the opponent from jumping over the wall in a hurry. Our first choice is definitely not to fight with the opponent, so I plan to Call Ye Chen to the Haiya Chamber of Commerce for a banquet and have a good talk with him in person!"
Upon hearing Jiang Hua'an's proposal, three words flashed through Yang Lu's mind -
Hongmen Banquet!
Su Yuanfeng even questioned on the spot: "Going to the banquet? Why did Ye Chen come to the Haiya Chamber of Commerce for the banquet? Even if Ye Chen was willing to be stupid and come to the banquet, would Liu Hanxing dare to let him come? This is not a show in "Mortals" In the name of "!"
The "In the Name of Mortal" that Su Yuanfeng mentioned was a cool novel written by Mr. Lu before his ascension.
This novel should be adapted from a famous novel on Earth. It mainly tells the story of the inner sect deacon who works in the Law Enforcement Hall of the Wuliang Sword Sect in the early stages of foundation building and investigates a major local corruption case.
Through various cheating investigation methods, they realized that if Hou Ping continued to pursue the investigation, everyone might be doomed.
Precisely because Master Hou Xian's cheating behavior was so excessive, Mr. Lu's book "In the Name of Mortals" was also jokingly called "Master Hou Xian's cheating notes" and "In the Name of the Second Immortal" by the readers.
Su Yuanfeng mentioned this famous novel at this time, obviously implying that Ye Chen could not come to the banquet stupidly, but Jiang Hua'an vowed: "Don't worry, Ye Chen will definitely come!"
Su Yuanfeng suddenly frowned and said: "City Master Jiang, is your judgment too arbitrary?"
However, Jiang Hua'an shook his head very firmly and said: "I have seen people like Ye Chen too many times. Their obsession is very deep. It can even be said that they rely on the obsession of revenge to survive today. But you have to know, Liu Hanxing Helping Ye Chen deal with us is not to help him get revenge, but to turn our Haiya Department into their puppets..."
Su Yuanfeng raised his eyebrows on the spot and said, "Do you still want to sow discord between them?"
Jiang Hua'an smiled and nodded: "That's right! We don't even need to deliberately sow discord. We only need to tell Ye Chen the whole story, and then give him a chance to truly avenge his family, then he will not hesitate to do so." No matter what the cost, you will come and see me, the murderer, in person!"
Yang Lu couldn't help but asked curiously: "What opportunities do you plan to give him?"
Jiang Hua'an took a deep breath and replied in a deep voice: "I can swear a poisonous oath. As long as Ye Chen dares to come to the meeting alone, I will tell him the causes and consequences of the murder of the Ye family in Tianshu City. In addition, I will also Promise to bypass Liu Hanxing and hand over the Haiya Chamber of Commerce’s account books and black materials over the years directly to him!"
The bait thrown by Jiang Hua'an made Su Yuanfeng and Han Xinhe almost jump up in shock. Su Yuanfeng even shouted angrily: "Are you crazy? How can this kind of thing be used as a bargaining chip?"
Jiang Hua'an said solemnly: "You don't really think that the Wuliang Sword Sect is so easy to deal with, do you? As the saying goes, if you can't let go of your children, you can't trap the wolf. Although Ye Chen and Liu Hanxing are not of the same mind, he hates us far more than he hates Liu Hanxing. If He is really determined to continue working with Liu Hanxing, these materials will fall into their hands sooner or later, it is better to use this as a bargaining chip to deceive Ye Chen, only in this way can we have enough room for maneuver!"
Although Jiang Hua'an didn't say it explicitly, the other three people understood his subtext.
After all, the contract of heaven is only useful to the living. If Ye Chen dies, Jiang Hua'an will naturally not need to fulfill his promise. However, such a blatant Hongmen banquet is simply Sima Zhao's intention, and everyone on the road knows it!
Therefore, Han Xinhe couldn't help but remind him again: "Although Ye Chen is missing a string in his head, Liu Hanxing is not a fool. Can he just watch Ye Chen run to our base camp to die?"
"It all depends on whether the information provided by Consultant Yang is accurate!"
This time Jiang Hua'an directly focused his attention on Yang Lu, who was the initiator of the meeting but had been playing soy sauce: "The information just sent by Consultant Yang mentioned that Liu Hanxing planned to use Ye Chen's soul to contact us to find people from our Haiya Department. In the secret archives room, I once specifically asked fellow Taoist Ji Zhanqun about this matter, and he said that if Liu Hanxing wants to use this method to locate his position, he must have the full cooperation of Ye Chen himself..."
Yang Lu said tentatively: "You mean...as long as Ye Chen makes up his mind to come, Liu Hanxing can't stop him at all?"
Jiang Hua'an replied: "Although I did not participate in the Zhongzhou Sword Discussion Conference, I also heard about the situation at that time. That guy Ye Chen went crazy. Even Chen Ming, who had raised him for more than 20 years, couldn't control him. Liu Han Xing is not related to him, so how can he possibly stop a madman like Ye Chen who is so obsessed with his mind?"
Although Jiang Hua'an gave very good reasons, Han Xinhe and Su Yuanfeng were still hesitant.
After pondering for a moment, Han Xinhe touched his chin and said: "Killing Ye Chen openly in the Haiya City Lord's Mansion is too heartbreaking! This has already crossed the red line of the Wuliang Sword Sect!"
Hearing Han Xinhe's worries, Su Yuanfeng nodded.
However, Jiang Hua'an said with disapproval: "Red line? We who do business all know that the effectiveness of the red line depends entirely on whether the person who draws the red line respects the contract. Only those who respect the contract and rules can draw the red line." Only the red line has the meaning of deterrence, and only then can we successfully deter the opponent at the minimum cost."
"But--"
"So what if I just stepped on the red line of the Wuliang Sword Sect? I believe that if this thing really happens, the red line of the Wuliang Sword Sect will definitely become extremely flexible!"
Han Xinhe said with a wry smile: "Although Lin Jianxing has no principles, as can be seen from the offshore war, he is very face-saving. Can he really tolerate us publicly slapping him in the face?"
Jiang Hua'an replied in a very contemptuous tone: "Of course there will be people below to help Head Lin find such things as face. Elder Han's good friend Xi Jinhu is a master in this way. Why are you worrying about this for Head Lin?"
Han Xinhe smiled bitterly and said, "You really think highly of Editor Xi!"
Jiang Hua'an shook his head and said: "Believe it or not, even if we step on Lin Jianxing's red line, he will definitely lift it up high and lower it gently. As long as "Xu Zhen Financial Weekly" comes out to prove it, the boundless sword sect will take a step back and the world will be brighter. The behavior is so wise, it must be the Nascent Soul Stage monks who have started to play big chess, and then I ask those mortals and low-level cultivators, are you smarter than the Nascent Soul Stage monks? What else can you say?"
