Pei Ruotao, the vice president of Xichang District, was also unlucky enough. He was framed and was released from prison not long after.
Moreover, he couldn't find the person who framed him. The one in Beixin District wouldn't be that boring, and Ji Qinglin on Xindong Street had no evidence.
After being scolded by the president Pei Ruohai, he took new actions in order to regain his face.
In the Cultivation Competition, I had already made two preparations to challenge the Nanhua District. If I lost, I would be ranked first in the Nanhua District, and if I won, I would fight for second place.
Although the accident happened, we can still use this opportunity to go to Nanhua District to seek cooperation again.
If Nanhua District gives us face, we can work together to fight against the victorious Xindong Street; if we refuse to drink wine as a fine, we can win over Xindong Street and talk about dividing Nanhua District.
Anyway, Ji Qinglin killed Sima Zhao, the president of the South China District, in the cultivation competition. Everyone knows this, and there is no way you in the South China District will let go of such a big hatred for the president's death.
The contradiction between the two major chambers of commerce is irreconcilable. How can you remain in an invincible position by adding fuel to the fire?
Pei Ruotao's idea is very good and his analysis is correct. The only pity is that he is not aware of the important event that just happened in the South China Chamber of Commerce, where master and apprentice recognized each other.
The person who came to report to Sima Shi was not loud, but because everyone was listening to the conversation between Ji Qinglin and Jiang Chen, the master and disciple, the hall was very quiet, and everyone on both sides heard it.
The former president Sima Zhao confirmed his death and the new president took office.
If you just want to test the new president's abilities, just come here in a low profile like Ji Qinglin.
But when Pei Ruotao brought people from the chamber of commerce, it was obvious that he had other motives, and there was even the possibility of taking action directly.
The timing was chosen well, taking advantage of the fact that the new president's foundation was not yet stable to start trouble directly.
Before Sima Shi could ask what to do, Jiang Chen turned around and lay on the seat, waved his hands grandly and said:
"You are a guest when you come, please!"
After all, he had been the head of the Green Corpse Sect for two years, and Jiang Chen's external momentum was still quite strong.
Ji Qinglin took over because he was afraid of Jiang Chen. He didn't know the background of Pei Ruotao and Xichang District. Before they came in, he asked Jiang Chen:
"Perhaps they are here to test your strength so that you can secure your position as president. How about I help you send them away as a teacher?"
After hearing this, everyone in the Nanhua District felt relieved. It was not that they really expected Ji Qinglin, but they found that the recognition of the master-disciple relationship had indeed stabilized the alliance of the Chamber of Commerce.
Jiang Chen was still very touched when she heard her master say to help her deal with it for the first time in a hundred years. However, she didn't want to risk her master who might not have recovered her strength yet, so she immediately shook her head and said:
"Master, don't worry. This is a matter for Nanhua District. Since my disciple can take over the position of president, he can naturally do a good job."
In fact, except for Vice President Sima Shi and a few elders, no one in the South China District had ever seen Corpse Ancestor Jiang Chen take action, so they were very curious about the Corpse Ancestor's strength.
Ji Qinglin nodded and stepped aside, waiting for Pei Ruotao and others to bring people in.
Taking advantage of this free moment, Yu Ye finally had a chance to talk to the master and whispered:
"Master, how are you? Have you recovered your lost memory?"
"Let's get some of it back, but there will be more problems."
"So Jiang Chen, the Corpse Ancestor from Nanhua District, is really your great disciple?"
Chi Ye: You are really tactful. You directly ask Master if you are still the boss. Master, how many disciples do you have? Wouldn’t it be over?
Ji Qinglin scratched his head and said:
"There's a high probability that things are a bit complicated. I'll explain it to you slowly when I get back."
Chiye: I don’t understand, what does high probability mean? Is this to recognize a disciple or do a paternity test for a child? Master wouldn’t just accept a beautiful apprentice when he sees one, and then forget about it after accepting him, right? If the master really had a lifespan of hundreds of years, would there be disciples everywhere? Hey, why don't you speak?
Yu Ye: I believe Master is not that kind of person. I didn't say anything, I just thought about how the master would train you if he knew what you said.
Chiye: Hey, hey, hey! It’s too much. Shouldn’t it be announced unanimously now?
Yu Ye: Okay, stop making trouble, let’s take a look at the strength of our “senior sister” first. She is the president of the South China District with the title of “Corpse Ancestor”.
Ding--
The hall door opened, and the disciples of the Chamber of Commerce led the way.
The person walking at the front was Pei Ruotao, who had a serious face and a tall figure. He was wearing a silver-white cassock. The cassock was like an electronic screen, with circles of black beads rolling on it.
Followed by more than twenty disciples wearing bronze cassocks, they all seemed to have a background in body training, and they followed behind with great momentum.
Nangong Qianfeng from Sihai Trading had already led everyone to retreat to the side seats. After chatting for so long, they were finally able to watch a show.
After Pei Ruotao came in, he glanced around: Sihai Trading must be here to discuss investment. They brought some people with them, but they did not pose a threat.
The old people in Nanhua District all know each other. The strange red-haired and charming woman lying in the high position should be Jiang Chen, the new president. She looks younger than Sima Zhao. Is she the "Corpse Ancestor"?
"Pei Ruotao, Vice Chairman of Xichang District, is here to pay me a visit."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen raised his charming eyes slightly and opened his mouth with shocking words:
"Oh? It turned out to be the vice president. Why, your president is also dead?"
Pei Ruotao, who was choked with words, didn't know how to say the kind words he had prepared later.
The semantics are very clear. When the president meets the president, why are you, the vice-president, joining in the fun?
Although it was rude, the disciples in Nanhua District already had objections to this troublemaker from Xichang District who jumped left and right in the Cultivation Competition, so they felt very comfortable when they heard this.
I thought to myself that the new president's posture was really arrogant, quite different from the gentle manner in which he had just spoken to Ji Qinglin.
Chi Ye: It is the master's merciless style of speaking, and the disciple rate increases by 10%.
After all, Pei Ruotao is the vice-president of one of the four associations, so he won't fall out with one word and said with a smile:
"President Jiang is joking. My eldest brother is just busy with chores and can't come here. That's why he sent me to pay a visit. I came here today to..."
Before Pei Ruotao could finish speaking, Jiang Chen stood up and waved his hand to interrupt:
"I understand what you mean. Sima Shi, clean up the grounds in the hospital. I'm going to compete with Pei Ruotao."
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, Pei Ruotao hurriedly waved his hands and said:
"Hey, hey, wait, wait! What does President Jiang mean by this? We are just here to pay a visit, why should we take action directly?"
Pei Ruotao thought that he did come here with the intention of taking action, but that was only after the cooperation talks broke down. Isn't it too unreasonable for you to take action without saying anything? !
Even the famous steps are omitted?
Or do you want to knock yourself down before talking about cooperation? Isn't this new president being too domineering?
Hearing this, Yu Ye couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering, saying in a low voice:
"To be honest, this habit of not following the rules is really similar to yours, Master."
Ji Qinglin smiled helplessly:
"As a teacher, you can still say a few polite words. You are really better than your master, and your master is better than your master."
Hearing Pei Ruotao's doubts, Jiang Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said charmingly:
"Vice President Pei doesn't understand, right? It's said that during the Cultivation Competition, didn't you say you wanted to challenge the South China District? It's a pity that you were disqualified because you did something illegal.
Wouldn't it be better if I gave you a chance to make up for this regret today? I'm here to take on the challenge and satisfy Vice President Pei's regrets that day. "
Although the disciples in the Nanhua District were really surprised when they just directly said that they wanted to compete, after hearing the new president's explanation and recalling the Xichang District's move to add insult to injury that day, not only did everyone feel that the reason was sufficient, but they were even a little indignant.
Before Pei Ruotao could reply, Sima Shi raised his hand and said:
"Why bother President, if Vice President Pei wants to discuss matters, my subordinates can accompany him."
Hearing that the president had such a tough attitude was very encouraging. Many elders in the chamber of commerce also echoed:
"I come!"
"let me try!"
Pei Ruotao frowned, thinking to himself, are you guys going to compete? Each of them seemed to want to tear themselves into pieces, but they couldn't understand the hatred.
Are you people in Nanhua District crazy? You are adding insult to injury by saying that your challenge was targeted in this way. Why didn't you take revenge when Ji Qinglin of Xindong Street killed your president?
Thinking of this, Pei Ruotao hurriedly shouted to dissuade:
"Everyone! Fellow Taoists from Nanhua District, please calm down. It was true that I raised the challenge that day, but I just wanted to give you points so that Nanhua District could overtake Xindong Street!
Besides, I was a close friend of President Sima Zhao of our South China District, so how could I do such a despicable thing after his death?
Speaking of President Sima Zhao, he was killed tragically by Ji Qinglin from Xindong Street during the Cultivation Competition, leaving no body intact on the spot.
But you are venting your anger on me, who has never done anything to you. This is really chilling. Shouldn't we go to that Ji Qinglin to take revenge together? "
Pei Ruotao thought to himself that you, the new president of the South China District, are so willing to take action, right? You happen to be causing trouble to the east, and you are so strong towards yourself. Why don't you just fight Ji Qinglin's hatred directly?
There is nothing wrong with this statement, and it sounds sincere and emotional.
However, Pei Ruotao was surprised to find that no one in the Nanhua District present showed the same indignant look towards him just now. Instead, they all looked at him with sarcasm or chuckles, as if they were watching a play.
Some people looked at Chairman Jiang Chen, and some people actually looked at Sihai Trading, which made Pei Ruotao a little confused:
Why did they react like this? Frightened by Ji Qinglin? Not really.
When Jiang Chen heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter, and his voice became a little softer:
"I understand. What Vice President Pei means is that we work together to deal with that Ji Qinglin?"
"Well, this is my idea, so I came to discuss it with Chairman Jiang. After all, we have two conferences."
Still before Pei Ruotao finished speaking, Jiang Chen waved his hands and said:
"Sima Shi?"
"exist!"
"There's no need to prepare a venue, just stay here. Business people, step back! I'm going to discuss with Vice Chairman Pei!"
When everyone in Nanhua District heard this, they quickly dispersed to both sides, leaving room for the president to deal with this two-faced man who was trying to sow discord between master and apprentice as well as the relationship between the chamber of commerce.
He said in his heart that it might have been a real fight, but you, Pei Ruotao, a big enemy, insisted on dealing with Ji Qinglin, and now it would be difficult even if there were no personal grudges.
Seeing that Nanhua District did not even deal with him unanimously if he had objections, Pei Ruotao's eyes almost popped out, and his brain was almost on fire, but he still couldn't figure it out:
Where is this? Have you ever stolen the incense money from their president? Why are you so angry with yourself?
"President Jiang, I'm just here to discuss cooperation. You..."
"Vice President Pei, please!"
"?!"
Thank you for your support and wish you a happy holiday. (Everyone in Nanhua District: There’s a lot of drama today. Come on, President!)
