Guili has a vast territory and rich resources. It is not only the most vast among the nine countries, but also the country with the largest population. Therefore, the difficulty of governance is much higher than that of other countries, and the classification is more detailed.
After many years of exploration, the Five Elements were born, focusing on the five major items of people's livelihood, finance, public security, etiquette, and supervision to maintain the prosperity of Guili. Each line is important, so there is no priority.
The "Qilin Pavilion" is responsible for the "financial" power of Guili.
The reason why Guili is able to have such a developed and prosperous business and is known as the "golden place" in the whole continent is absolutely inseparable from the operation and maintenance of Qilin Pavilion behind the scenes.
Every day, countless administrative instructions are transmitted from this castle in the air and born from the pen of the "Pavilion Master".
Maybe just a small piece of paper coming out of Qilin Pavilion can cause the market to fluctuate violently, double the value of ordinary ordinary items, or make those treasures worth thousands of gold go crazy. fall.
But don't get me wrong, the former usually appears when people want to stimulate certain industries that are in urgent need of goods, while the latter usually appears when prices are inflated and are manipulated by unscrupulous people in secret.
Qilin Pavilion's business attitude towards Guili still focuses on freedom and fairness, but while maintaining this balance, some necessary means are naturally needed.
The possibility of using power for personal gain almost never exists, not only because the "pavilion master" is already at the top of Guili Business, but also because Baihutang, who has the responsibility of "supervising all officials", is keeping a close eye on him. For any official who is corrupt and bends the law, it is a sharp sword hanging over his head.
Well...
However, today's Qilin Pavilion seems a bit unexpected. Many staff working in the pavilion look towards the deepest rooms in the pavilion with worried and suspicious eyes from time to time.
That is the location of the "Pavilion Master" of Qilin Pavilion.
But on the left and right of the door of this room, there were two soldiers holding spears and halberds. If you look at the armor on their bodies, it is not difficult to understand why everyone in Qilin Pavilion is so panicked at this moment.
The soldiers in Guili only have two kinds of clothing, one is with the "green dragon" mark embroidered on the chest, and the other is the "tiger" pattern that is now standing guard at the door of the pavilion master's room.
White Tiger Hall.
"People in Guili say that once you climb the Qilin Pavilion, you won't have to worry about glory and wealth for half your life...Tsk, tsk, then it seems that I can consider retirement!"
In the deepest room of Qilin Pavilion, in the tea room of the living room, two people were sitting.
The first person to speak was a lean man in casual clothes with a cheerful and carefree look. Sitting opposite him, also at the main seat, was a girl wearing a light yellow cheongsam.
"Master Li was joking, there is no such simple thing in the world. If Qilin Pavilion is really so magical, then Yu'er would rather let every Guili person come up once, so that no one in Guili will suffer from poverty. "
The girl is graceful and dignified.
At this time, as the host, while replying, he was also making tea and pouring water for the lean man who was the guest.
"Haha, Mr. Zhao, you are so humble. I know that according to statistics from the Zhuque Gate, the number of poor people who have returned this year has reached a new low. Isn't this a magical manifestation of Qilin Pavilion? Ah, of course. It also reflects the greatness of Mr. Zhao.”
"Master Li is too polite. Yu'er just did some things within her duty. The prosperity and progress of Guili are not just one person, but rely on the efforts of everyone in Guili."
The two people in the tea room seemed to be greeting each other, but the atmosphere in the room became increasingly tense.
This may not be obvious from the words, but the cheongsam girl glanced at the tea she had made on the table, but she was not passive at all.
Next, as expected.
"Hey..." The lean man sighed.
"It's really boring to talk to Mr. Zhao. You are always so tight-knit, that's all. I won't waste our time with each other anymore. I think Mr. Zhao must also know why our White Tiger Hall came to you suddenly."
"Excuse me, why did Mr. Zhao suddenly issue diplomatic documents to Qiandao? And he directly skipped the people at Xuanwu Pass?"
The lean man who was originally very easy-going suddenly changed his tone, and his whole temperament instantly became serious.
Under his sharp gaze, ordinary people would even feel breathless, as if they were being stared at by a tiger.
The five elements of Guili each perform their own duties and cannot cross boundaries. This is the most basic rule.
Similarly, the transmission of diplomatic documents to foreign countries is the area that Xuanwu Pass is responsible for, and it should have nothing to do with Qilin Pavilion, which is only in charge of domestic finance.
But just a few days ago, Qilin Pavilion suddenly issued a diplomatic document to Qiandao, which was about "requesting assistance in investigating the victims of the Astrologis."
Such cross-border and strange behavior naturally alerted the people from Baihutang to investigate.
"Master Li, it is true that Yu'er was a little careless and anxious about this matter, but just now, I have sent someone to re-deliver the explanatory documents to Xuanwu Pass."
"I happen to have a backup copy here, and I would like Mr. Li to take a look at it." Zhao Yu'er said, taking out a file that had been prepared long ago.
After the lean man took it, he opened it and scanned it quickly. After a while, he showed a rare look of surprise.
At the same time, the cheongsam girl's faint explanation voice also sounded in the tea room.
"A few years ago, there was a Guili businessman who was on the verge of bankruptcy due to poor business decisions and was saddled with huge debts. He knew he could not repay them, so he abandoned his wife and daughter and fled overseas with the money. This debt is in Xuanwu There are records in Guan and Qilin Pavilion."
"Now, in the Astologis shipwreck announced by Qiandao, I accidentally discovered the name of this returning businessman in the list of victims, so I asked Qiandao to let us intervene in the investigation. If It’s okay to have the same name, but if it’s really this person, then it’s a case of closure.”
After the cheongsam girl finished speaking, the lean man also put down the file.
"..."
The man looked at the girl opposite who still had a calm face with a complicated expression. He wanted to say something, but in the end, his throat just moved.
He finally understood why the all-rounded Qilin Pavilion would suddenly do such a reckless thing. If the identities were reversed, if he were in the position of the girl and received such ups and downs, no matter how well-rounded the person was, it would be difficult for him to maintain his integrity. Calm.
After the lean man from Baihutang drank the tea on the tea table, he cupped his fists and cupped his hands towards the girl.
"Thank you Mr. Zhao for your cooperation. I already understand what happened. What's more, Mr. Zhao has already submitted the documents to Xuanwu Pass, so naturally I don't have the need to investigate."
After finishing speaking, the man stood up and was about to leave the tea room, but at the end before leaving, as if he couldn't help it, he didn't look back, but turned his back to the girl in front of the door and said:
"Although I know it's a bit of a bastard to say this, but... the past has passed. Please forgive me, Mr. Zhao."
"Not long after, it will be the day when the emperor comes out of seclusion after a hundred years of seclusion. At this juncture, both Qilin Pavilion and Mr. Zhao are indispensable and must not make any mistakes."
"I've been talking a little too much. Please take my leave, Mr. Zhao."
After the lean man left the tea room, he took the accompanying White Tiger Hall soldiers and quickly left the Qilin Pavilion. Seeing this, the office staff in the pavilion breathed a sigh of relief. What they feared most was the appearance of the Pavilion Master. Being carried away by the soldiers of Baihutang, it was like the sky was falling.
After a while, the sound of a bell came from the deepest room of the pavilion master.
The two secretaries of the Pavilion Master, who had been waiting at the side for a long time, quickly obeyed the summons and walked into the room.
They thought that the master of the pavilion would give some new instructions, but who knew, from the face of the cheongsam girl, the two female secretaries rarely noticed a trace of fatigue.
"Yu...Sister Yu'er, are you okay?" One of the younger secretaries who had just taken office was the first to ask.
"It's nothing serious, just a little tired."
"Then...Sister Yu'er, let's ask the kitchen to make some lotus soup to recuperate the body and refresh the body!"
"Lotus soup... I am indeed a little hungry, but now I suddenly feel more like eating another dish." After hearing what the secretary mentioned, the cheongsam girl seemed to be lost in memories, and finally shook her head and said.
"Sister Yu'er, tell me, no matter what the dish is, we'll let the kitchen prepare it right now!"
"Go prepare a dish of boiled cabbage and bring it in when it's ready." The girl finally recalled the familiar name of the dish from her memory.
"Boil...boil the cabbage?" The newly appointed secretary showed a confused expression.
In her eyes, the master of the pavilion is a person who is extremely noble and admired. Obviously she feels that the name of this dish does not match the girl in the cheongsam, right?
Fortunately, the other female secretary beside him was much older. She hurriedly stopped her companions who couldn't help but ask questions with her eyes, and left the room.
"Sister Cuicui, why do you think Sister Yu'er suddenly wants to eat cabbage? Or... what about boiled cabbage? Boil the cabbage in boiling water. It's so tasteless. Can this be eaten?"
The young secretary's curious murmur was met with an eye roll and a sigh from the other secretary.
"Boiling water cabbage is just the name of the dish, just like there is really a wife in the wife cake? You think boiling water cabbage means boiling cabbage in boiling water, but the actual "boiling water" means using the freshest chicken and duck, and Pork ribs, scallops, hoof meat and many other precious ingredients are added with many seasonings in extremely strict proportions and then simmered for at least four hours. This is not over yet. There is a more complicated process of absorbing impurities in the soup, which must be done The soup stock is as clear and clear as boiling water, only then it is completely finished.”
"As for the selection of cabbage, it is even more demanding. We must use cabbage that is cooked but not yet cooked through, and only the tender heart that is yellow in the middle is selected. After a complicated process, it is finally combined with the stock, which is what Sister Yu'er said. Boiled cabbage."
After the older female secretary explained it, the young female secretary next to her was already dumbfounded.
"Ah, ah... what! Isn't there a wife in the wife cake!? I always thought there was! Bah, no, it turns out that Sister Yu'er's boiled cabbage refers to this, learn it, learn it..."
The young secretary lamented that money limited her imagination, and became even more curious about boiled cabbage.
"Sister Cuicui, you have been with Sister Yu'er for the longest time. Can you tell me a little bit about it? I see that Sister Yu'er looks worried, but she specially called us here just for this dish. There must be something in it. What’s the story?”
This little secretary may not be good at anything else, but she is definitely good at coquettishness. Under the other party's curious and pitiful eyes, Cuicui couldn't help but secretly talked about this past incident about their pavilion master.
"Although Sister Yu'er was born into a wealthy business family, unfortunately, when she was just a few years old, her father was secretly tricked and his business plummeted. It is said that because he could not repay the high debt, he ran away directly overseas. Sister Yu'er and their mother and daughter are left to depend on each other."
"But in such a desperate environment, Sister Yu'er relied on her extraordinary business talents to not only pay off the debt owed by her father in just ten years, but also defeated the competitors who plotted against her father in one fell swoop , until finally, Rong ascended to the position of the master of Qilin Pavilion!"
"So people now only see the infinite glory of the Pavilion Master, but they don't see that the Pavilion Master has worked hard and worked hard for today for so many days and nights, gritting his teeth and persisting, and it is said that Sister Yu'er's original name was not this, but After paying off his father's debts, he was angry at his father's abandonment of his wife and daughter, so he changed his name, which means a clean break with the past, and now he has the famous Qilin Pavilion Master, Zhao Yu'er."
After the secret story of the Pavilion Master was told, the young secretary's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard the last part.
"What! It turns out that Sister Yu'er has changed her name!?"
"Shhh! You damn girl! What are you doing in such a hurry! If Sister Yu'er finds out that we are talking about this in private, you and I will have to clean the toilet tomorrow!" The senior female secretary glared fiercely. Like a companion.
"Oh...Okay, okay, Sister Cuicui, keep talking, keep talking quickly!"
The young secretary's eyes were sharp and she wanted to know the follow-up, but unfortunately her companion slapped her.
"That's how you are! Don't even think about listening to it! Get to work!"
"Sister Cuicui, how could you do this! It's so annoying to talk half-way! Uh-huh..."
...
...
Yueyuan Island, port.
"That's it, I understand. To sum it up, you want to borrow the mine that I closed down on Baengnyeong Island. You can't tell me what it's used for, and you're not allowed to ask me to go with you. It may be necessary depending on the situation. Use my workers, that’s it, right?”
Zhao Jie suppressed the anger in his heart and repeated the help given by the young man opposite him just now.
to be honest.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was his daughter's sweetheart, Zhao Jie would have wanted to curse him.
But there is no way.
He already owed Xing'er too much, so because of the relationship between the other party and Xing'er, even if this young man wanted to go against the Water God, he, Zhao Jie, as the father-in-law, would have to bite the bullet and support him.
So when Liao Zixuan and Zhao Jie separated, he already got what he wanted. He got a handwritten letter from Zhao Jie, the owner of the mine, saying that from now on everyone in the mine would obey him.
It can be said that it perfectly met Liao Zixuan’s expectations and went very smoothly!
The only thing that might embarrass Liao Zixuan was that Zhao Jie had obviously misunderstood something.
But... forget it!
After I and the little girl return from their trip, I will pay attention to Zhao Jie's daughter named "Xing'er". Then I can make up for her properly. I heard that Zhao Jie owed a large debt. Then just pay it back for them yourself! By the way, improve people's living conditions.
After all, everyone knows with their own feet that without their father since childhood, the mother and daughter are alone and burdened with huge debts. Their lives must be very difficult and desolate. They are simply a replica of the little village girl Vivian!
And since I have a predestined relationship with Zhao Jie, it is of course my duty to provide targeted poverty alleviation!
I can't guarantee anything else about the little wolf cub, but there is still something in the small treasury!
Don't forget that he also robbed the underground vault of the treasure thief group at that time. Now he can be regarded as a little rich wolf! Helping poor village girls and so on, with Vivian's experience, it will naturally be handy!
Perfect!
After nodding with satisfaction in his heart, Liao Zixuan stopped thinking about it and set off to find the second target in his plan.
