Yinjue is dead.
The news did not spread very quickly. It took less than a day from the time Yin Jue's flesh and blood was discovered to the news spreading, but it took three full days for the news to spread from within the Commercial Church to the outside world. There may be Herrinin's methods involved, but more importantly, it is the consideration of the business church.
Because the identity of the person who killed Yin Jue was too special.
Brave.
In fact, at the beginning, when Mr. Yin publicized the preserved traces and Yinjue's flesh and blood within the Commercial Church, most of them were unacceptable. After all, Yinjue is still one of the twelve popes, and represents the face of the commercial church. And the brave man is supposed to be the strongest spear in the twelve quarters, and that's how it should be.
But now, this sharpest spear pierced the heart of Twelve Quarters.
After the great shock, fanatical anger burned on the vine of the Commercial Church. Yin Jue's personal charm is very strong, how strong is it?
Businessmen are willing to work for him.
Yes, the most ruthless and bestial vested interests in the world will sacrifice their lives for another greater vested interest. If it is for profit, then it is easy to understand. However, they were just doing it for Yin Jue, nothing more.
A person who can make profit-seekers abandon their interests and follow him is the most terrifying person. This is why, in Zhou Li's eyes, Yin Jue is his biggest enemy now.
Soon, the news that Zhou Li killed Yin Jue became widely known.
"This is a very paradoxical phenomenon."
Mr. Yin sat blankly in Yinjue's office, his hands hanging by his sides, his eyes dull, muttering to himself, "The respect for the brave and the love for Yinjue are on opposite sides of each other. One side represents justice." , one side represents wealth and kindness. Brave people are a spiritual pillar of people, but they have received material blessings from Silver Lord. And now, the material and spirit, which have always been strong, have begun to confront each other. It is really a strange phenomenon. "
"Yes."
He tilted his head, and his neck made a rattling sound. He looked forward, opened his mouth slightly, and said in a dazed voice, "Material will bring about spiritual changes, but the spirit cannot affect the material. Yinjue gave it to this city, to this country Enough material favors, so spiritually he gained the respect of the people."
Stretching out his hand, a silver coin shimmered with faint light, milky white, like milk slowly flowing through the lines of the silver coin. Mr. Yin stared at the silver coin in rapt attention, and his voice began to contain an emotion called reverence.
"The brave man is just a symbol, a representative. He has not given this city any material benefits, no money, no roads, and no almshouses. He is just a touch of color in the people's spirit, which is interesting."
The silver coin slowly began to soften as if it had been exposed to high temperatures, and finally turned into a pool of silver liquid and melted into Mr. Yin's palm. Closing his eyes, Mr. Yin let out a long sigh of satisfaction and said softly:
"Becoming a god, Yin Jue has truly become a god. Everyone in the world thinks that the God of Commerce has taken all the power over wealth into his possession, but they don't know that there is one power that the God of Commerce has never obtained."
The silver liquid precipitated from the hand, and the flesh and bones took away the luster of the silver coin. What flowed down was only the dull metallic liquid. Mr. Yin narrowed his eyes and smiled, a dangerous smile.
"How could it be silver coins..."
****************************
"According to incomplete statistics, 25% of Tariq's economic activities are led by Yinjue's business church. Another 10% are directly related to Yinjue himself, and 20% are directly related to Yinjue and his family. It has an indirect relationship with the business church.”
Putting down the statistical form in his hand, Zhou Li rubbed his brows, "Fifty-five percent of Tariq's wealth is all related to Yin Jue. It can be said that at least 55 of a hundred Tariq businessmen are related to Yin Jue. Related. And almost everyone in Mosk has been favored by Yin Jue to one degree or another."
"as expected."
Putting down the communicator, Lin Zi sighed, shrugged and said: "All Tariq-related merchants have terminated their cooperation with us, and the medical equipment contracts previously negotiated have also been unilaterally canceled. Now all Tariq's chambers of commerce have We shut down and refused to open.”
"normal."
Zhou Li glanced at the thick mountain of documents in front of Lin Zi, and said matter-of-factly: "Controlling, holding shares, and even talking heads, Yin Jue has a lot of power in these famous chambers of commerce. Now I will kill It’s normal for these people to break the contract with me unilaterally.”
"Everyone pays liquidated damages more readily than the other."
Speaking of this, Lin Zi said with a strange look: "If we don't count long-term investment, we actually made crazy money this time just from liquidated damages."
"But the major chambers of commerce in Tariq have blocked us. This is an undeniable fact."
Zhou Li turned a pen in his hand and said with great interest: "Now is the economic blockade. If my guess is correct, these people will also jointly pressure Herinen to control me before Yinjue takes action. Thoroughly investigate whether I killed Yin Jue."
"Trouble."
Ain on the side frowned, sighed and said: "After calculation, if these chambers of commerce in Tariq choose to go to war with us outright and carry out an economic and political double blockade, not only Tariq, but also Magnum and Yingnan will All businesses will suffer a lot.”
"Um."
What no one expected was that Zhou Li was calm and calm in the face of what seemed to be a very serious situation at this time, and did not look imminent at all. He looked at his watch and then asked everyone: "Are you hungry?"
"hungry."
Lin Zi took the words directly, nodded and said: "I have been fighting with these people for a long time, and now I am starving to death."
"well?"
Ain on the side was stunned. For a normal person, after learning that he was about to be blocked by Tariq's major trading hubs, he would be so dejected that he would have a strong psychological endurance. But at this time, Zhou Li not only didn't panic, on the contrary, he calmly asked others if they were hungry.
Did he just start showing off?
"Let's eat first."
Zhou Li stood up, wandered towards the kitchen, helped Eluma put the food on the table, sat on a chair, and asked the confused people with a surprised look on his face: "Come?"
"Ouch."
Lin Zi was the first to react and sat opposite Zhou Li in two steps. Ling Hai, who didn't understand these business issues and kept playing around, also sat aside. Others sat at the dinner table with doubts and worries, and began to eat Chinese food in panic.
"You may have forgotten one thing."
After eating a hot soup dumpling, Zhou Li put down his chopsticks, and the others also stopped in unison, waiting for Zhou Li's words.
"I am a brave man."
Zhou Li patted his chest, and then said calmly: "Don't forget that for me, the economy may be just the icing on the cake. Don't forget that I am a brave man, a natural ruler in terms of military power and political power."
"The fortress built by money is not worth mentioning in front of fists."
***************************
"Father, do we just unilaterally break the contract?"
In a mansion in Mosk, a young man with blond hair and blue eyes frowned and said worriedly to the old man with white hair beside him: "After all, that girl is also a subordinate of the brave man. We unilaterally broke the contract..."
"He killed Yin Jue!"
The white-haired old man used his cane vigorously and looked at the young man. His old voice was stern, "Arnold, remember, we businessmen can put everything on the scale of profit, even our lives can be measured. But you We must remember that if Silver Lord had not bought the goods we hoarded with one hundred gold coins fifty years ago, our Arnold family would have been sent to the gallows."
"You were infected with a bad disease when you were born. It was His Excellency Yinjue who blessed you with his own hands and brought you back from the brink of death. He was the only pope to pray for heretics, and the pope who could have been re-elected was also suspended for a period of time. Ah Nuo, remember, our family was saved by Your Excellency Yin Jue, and we must avenge his death."
"But that's a brave man."
Arnold frowned, the worry on his face deepening, "Brave... can we really fight him?"
"Even if he is a brave man, he still has to play the game within the rules."
The old man held the scepter in his hand tightly, the anger and calmness in his eyes intertwined, "The top ten chambers of commerce have united, and there are other medium-sized chambers of commerce. The power we have together is definitely not something he can easily resist. Even Herrinin We also need to consider it. Our ten major chambers of commerce are already preparing to jointly draft an opinion letter to let Herinen control Zhou Li so that we can continue to encroach on him."
"Top ten chambers of commerce..."
After hearing this name, the anxiety and worry in Arnold's eyes disappeared a little. Although it is said that all major industries have government holdings, it is Yinjue who mediates the situation. Now, all the shares in Yinjue's hands are distributed equally to shareholders according to his previous will. Now, the shares in the hands of the government are no longer the same as before. are equally decisive.
As long as he and his team unite, the energy behind the ten major chambers of commerce will be enough to launch a revenge against Zhou Li. Even if he is a brave man, he cannot fight against himself.
"Actually, I think we should first control all the news channels, and then use certain artistic processing to smear Zhou Li's reputation. Then use economic advantages to block his food, clothing, housing and transportation, such as buying the National Hotel, and then evicting him . At the same time, we cannot force him to a dead end, let some people help him as entrusters, give him financial help, and then jointly submit a letter when public opinion is the most heated. In this case, Herinen will not be able to refuse you."
"Yes, this plan is very complete..."
The old man suddenly realized and wanted to praise his son, and then he saw Arnold, whose face was ashen.
Immediately afterwards, the old man's face suddenly turned livid.
"Go on, tell me your evaluation."
Zhou Li smiled and patted the old man on the shoulder, and said gently: "What I like most is to accept criticism, because it allows me to grow. What do you think of my plan for the brave? It doesn't matter, just say it boldly."
"Sir Brave, you are breaking the law."
The old man quickly calmed down and said calmly: "I wonder what the brave man meant by breaking into a private house?"
"find friends."
Zhou Li's smile remained unchanged, "Find a good friend who has committed a crime."
"Our Arnold family has abided by the law for generations. I don't know what you mean, Lord Brave, but what I know is that no matter whether we break the law or not, you need to produce a search warrant before you can enter my mansion."
Without looking at Zhou Li, the old man glanced at Arnold who was frozen and said calmly: "Your tactics against the Yingnan people are of no use to me. I am a businessman, a pure businessman."
"I don't have Tariq's orders."
Zhou Li shook his head. He couldn't get Tariq's arrest warrant at all, because that was something that could only be obtained by Tariq's police or military. And he himself was not a policeman or a soldier, not a Tariq, so he had no so-called search warrant at all.
but.
"But I have a lot of twelve-quarter ones here."
Putting the Brave Exclusive on the table, Zhou Li tapped the cover gently and said kindly: "How many copies do you want? I have brought my own pen and can write an article for you on the spot at any time."
"you!"
The old man was immediately shocked, "Twelve seconds, how can you take care of twelve seconds..."
Damn it, you can still control me.
Only then did the old man realize that perhaps in Tariq, Herinen would not do anything to him, because he was the King of Tariq and Tariq was behind him, so he had to abide by Tariq's rules.
But there is no need to worry about these at the Twelve Hours. Behind them is God, and God makes the rules.
"I need to contact Twelve Hours."
After taking a deep breath, the old man said to Zhou Li: "Even if you want to search for me at twelve o'clock, you still need to communicate with me and explain the reason for the search."
"The reason for the search is that someone started economic activities immediately after Yin Jue's death, which is suspected to be related to Yin Jue's death. Among them, the top ten chambers of commerce headed by you have the highest frequency of activities and are the most suspected."
Without any respect for the elderly or caring for the young, Zhou Li stretched out his hand and grabbed the old man's collar, his voice full of sternness, "The above is the representative of the twelve moments. The reason explained by the brave Zhou Li, do you have any objections?"
"You know, that doesn't make me give in."
Staring at Zhou Li, the old man was not afraid at all. Instead, he said calmly: "You killed Mr. Yinjue. I owe him too much and I must repay him. If you kill me here, I won't have any problems." Any complaints. Even if you want to massacre the entire Arnold family, I can only choose to regretfully curse you in hell."
"You're joking."
Suddenly, Zhou Li, who was originally serious and fierce, changed his style, and a kind smile appeared on his face. He put the old man down, stretched out his hand to straighten his sleeves, and said gently: "I am a good man, how could I kill you?"
"It's just that in order to investigate the cause of Your Excellency Yin Jue's death, I need to have some contact with you, a great business man. But don't worry, I'm not here to sneak in secretly this time, but to show up openly. My legion is There is no hiding at your doorstep.”
Patting the old man's shoulder, Zhou Li smiled brighter and said, "What you need to do is help me."
"Let me stay at your house for a few more days, that's all."
broken.
The old man's heart sank, and he immediately understood what Zhou Li was planning.
Divide and break...
