5895 Chapter 5893-eyes open at the sight of money

If it wasn’t for Tong wuhui’s reminder, Zheng dongjue would never have thought of this. Now that he understood, his expression changed.”What should we do? With that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Lin Yi’s personality, he wouldn’t give up on an opportunity like this!”

“That’s why I’m going to talk about the third point. ” Wooshang sighed. His goal had always been to target Lin Yi, but now he had to rely on Lin Yi to help him out. As a strategist, he felt a little disheartened.

“Vice head, it’s not impossible to get Lin Yi to not stand in our way or even put in a good word or two for us. There are still people in the pill Hall who are on good terms with Lin Yi. Not to mention the independent five elements Chamber of Commerce, Cai Zhongyang, just the first disciple of the G.o.d of alchemy, hou guanqi, is enough for Lin Yi to speak for the pill Hall.” Woken Tong’s train of thought was very clear. He wanted to make use of all the people and relations.h.i.+ps he could make use of before dawn. Who cared if they were enemies or friends before?

Zheng dongjian felt as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly. Was he, the Vice Hall Master of the pill Hall, going to ask hou guanqi to speak up for him? A long time ago, he and Zhang Liju’s registered disciples were on the surface but on the inside, they weren ‘t. After Lin Yi appeared, their relations.h.i.+p worsened. This time, he even tried to set up Cai Zhongyang and hou guanqi. It was fine if qiuli and Zao Yi came out, but it was a bit boring to ask hou guanqi.

Tong wohui sighed in his heart. Zheng dongjue’s expression clearly showed what he was thinking. In his view, people who wanted to do big things didn’t care about the small things. Being able to yield and stretch was a must. It was definitely a good thing to ask hou guanqi for help in such an urgent time. With hou guanqi’s kind personality, as long as Zheng dongjue put down his arrogance, there was a 70 – 80% chance that he would come to Lin Yi for the sake of the pill Hall.

Zheng dongjue didn’t speak, so crouching Tong could only speak,””Vice Hall Master, I know hou guanqi. Why don’t you let me handle this?”

In fact, the most effective way was for Zheng dongjue to personally take action. Tong wozhui had come here secretly, so he would try not to show his face if possible. Moreover, Tong wozhui’s ident.i.ty meant that he wouldn’t have much interaction with hou guanqi. Unfortunately, Zheng dongjue was not responsible enough, so he couldn’t do anything.

Zheng dongjue was secretly relieved when he heard Tong wuhui’s suggestion. He immediately nodded and said,””That’s good, then I’ll leave hou guanqi to you. I’ll personally invite him over. If not, we’ll split up!”

If it wasn’t for the fact that Tong wuhui’s status wasn’t high enough to talk to li Zao Yi directly, Zheng dongjue might have also handed this matter over to him. Following such a master, Tong wuhui was now very suspicious whether he was lucky or unlucky.

In any case, now that they had made a decision, the two of them didn’t say anything more and went to find their own targets.

Zheng dongjue first went to find li Zao Yi, but unfortunately, li Zao Yi had gone out and hadn’t returned. He had encountered such a small probability event, and his luck today was really bad.

He had no choice but to go find steward song first and then talk to li Zao Yi when he came back.

Although it was already late at night, there were still many people who came to visit steward song. Zheng dongjue was also secretly complaining. It just so happened that the people who came back to the northernmost Island were basically all big shots from all sides. In terms of status, none of them was much inferior to the other. He couldn’t even cut the queue if he wanted to, so he could only wait obediently.

Fortunately, those who came to visit steward song were basically just paying him a visit. They would leave after pulling some strings. After waiting for more than an hour, it was finally Zheng dongjue’s turn.

After entering the living room, steward song sat on the main seat without any intention of standing up to welcome him. Zheng Dong Jue had a favor to ask of him, so he could only smile and quickly step forward to greet him with cupped fists,”Steward song, long time no see. You look more energetic. It seems that your cultivation has improved again!”

Steward song raised his eyes and glanced at Zheng dongjue indifferently. He said in a neutral tone,””Vice Hall Master Zheng, this old man’s apt.i.tude is dull, and I haven’t made any progress for many years. I’ve really made a fool of myself!”

Zheng dongjue let out an “uh” and was immediately choked. The atmosphere of this conversation was not very right …

“I heard that vice Hall Master Zheng schemed against my Young Island master as soon as he arrived. You’re really capable and skillful. Compared to you, I’m really old and useless. Alright, since vice Hall Master Zheng is leaving tomorrow, you should go back and pack your things. This old man is busy, so I’ll take it as a farewell!” Steward song said coldly and raised his hand to send the guest off.

Zheng dongjue turned pale with fright. He thought that since steward song was willing to see him, there was still some hope. Why did he want to drive him away without even saying a few words?

“Steward song, we’ve known each other for many years. If we don’t see each other again, won’t you feel regretful?” Zheng dongjian’s plan might not work, but he was very familiar with dealing with such matters. As he spoke, his body had already rushed forward. Before steward song could say anything to send the guest off, he reached out and held his hand.

A green spirit Jade card was secretly placed into steward song’s palm. On the surface, it looked like two old friends who had not seen each other for many years were greeting each other warmly.

The corner of steward song’s eyes caught a trace of green on his palm. His face immediately turned as white as snow in spring, and he revealed a smile that Zheng dongjue was familiar with.

“Vice Hall Master Zheng is right. We’ve been old friends for many years. We might not have the chance to meet again in the future. We should have a good gathering before we leave.” With a smile, steward song retracted his hand and put the spiritual Jade card, which was worth five hundred thousand spiritual jade pieces, into his pocket without a trace.

“Someone, serve vice Hall Master Zheng some tea and some spirit fruits and pastries. You’re all tras.h.!.+” Steward song raised his voice and said to the attendant outside the door. Then, he politely said to Zheng dongjue,”Vice Hall Master Zheng, please take a seat. Don’t blame this old man for being slow! We’ve been old friends for many years, so we might not have the chance to talk about interesting things from the past in the future!”

Zheng dongjue’s heart was filled with hatred. He knew that this old thing meant that the spiritual Jade card was only enough for him to drink a cup of tea and eat some pastries here, and then everyone could reminisce about the past. As for other matters, it was better not to speak of them.

Fortunately, Zheng dongjue also knew that the old man surnamed song was a money-grubber. As long as there were spiritual jades, he would be able to help.

He had heard that when the shopkeepers of several Chambers of Commerce on the North Island had joined forces to deal with hongzhong, they had only spent a few tens of thousands of spiritual jades to get this old thing to cooperate. Although this matter was kept a secret, it had still spread, and Zheng dongjue believed it without a doubt.
