Chapter 598 Stormy Weather Begins



Chapter 598 Stormy Weather Begins

The Wind and Rain Tower, the headquarters.

"Deputy Building Master, this is the file that Shen Xu submitted." Chi Xiao placed the file on the man's messy desk.

"Oh?" The man opened his eyes, moved his legs off the table, and picked up the file with interest to read it.

"This is still a piece of real gold, but I don't seem to see Xiaorou's work." The man put the file down.

"She initially wanted to help Shen Xu, but I spoiled her too much," Chi Xiao explained.

"The building is giving her so many resources not so that she would back down, but also so that she should have the ability to make independent judgments in that position."

She is not yet capable of becoming a Mirror Master, so let Zihuai take her place.

"Also, show this to Qian Zengming and have him warn Song Xi to do his job properly, otherwise he won't be irreplaceable in Dancheng." The man's voice was somewhat cold.

After hesitating for a moment, Chi Xiao spoke again: "In the description in the case file, Shen Xu expressed his willingness to continue working with Xiao Rou."

The Yan family also had a lot of opinions about Shen Xu, and they were closer to the Law Enforcement Hall.

After Zi Huai arrives, she is very likely to interfere with Shen Xu's judgment and make him change the strategy that Qian Zengming has been implementing in Dancheng. After all, they were responsible for Shen Xu being arrested by the Dancheng Law Enforcement Hall.

Finally, the information in Dan Ding City is too vast, making it very difficult for Xiao Rou to maintain. I think the same will happen after Zi Huai arrives.

I think it would be a better choice to have Zihuai go while Xiaorou stays there to work with Zihuai on camera.

Upon hearing Chi Xiao's words, the man tapped his fingers lightly on the table. "It can only be a temporary measure. In the end, only one Mirror Master will remain there."

Remember, this is my last chance for her, and it could be yours too.

"Thank you, Deputy Pavilion Master." Chi Xiao bowed and said, feeling a sense of relief. This meant Xiao Rou still had a chance.

After leaving the room, Chi Xiao immediately found the department where Qian Zengming worked.

"General Staff, what brings you here?" Qian Zengming hurriedly greeted Chi Xiao upon his arrival.

Looking at the meticulously organized study in front of her, and at the orderly, well-organized Jiweitang she had seen along the way, she was struck by its atmosphere of efficiency and smooth communication.

Chi Xiao couldn't help but sigh that the deputy building master's vision was beyond her comprehension.

"Master Qian, how is it working at Jiwei Hall?"

Qian Zengming sighed, "I'm still getting used to the job. The affairs of Jiweitang are a hundred times more complicated than those in Dancheng. I'm starting to miss my life at Fengshi Pharmacy."

He spent a century lying low in Dan Ding City before being transferred to headquarters, but once inside, he discovered that it wasn't as wonderful as he had imagined.

The power struggles and resource competition among aristocratic families, as well as between aristocratic families and outsiders, were equally fierce.

Looking back now, if it weren't for the support of the deputy lord back then, he would never have been appointed as the Ming Pavilion of Dan Ding City.

Moreover, after arriving at headquarters, he learned that Wu Hen, like him, had been forcibly promoted by the deputy head of the building.

However, this time the deputy leader's decision was even bolder, which caused even fiercer resistance. He suddenly felt somewhat glad that he had entrusted everything he had in Dan Ding City to Wu Hen.

I hope to help him get through this difficult time.

"That's just how headquarters is; there's never a moment of rest. But as long as we promote more capable deputies and work steadily, we'll gradually adapt," Chi Xiao comforted him.

"Thank you for your concern, General Staff."

"The deputy director asked me to show this to you." Chi Xiao handed the dossier written by Shen Xu to Qian Zengming.

"Is it something important?"

"It's about Wu Hen's recent situation," Chi Xiao said with a smile.

"Wu Hen, he only took over Feng's Pharmacy a few days ago, why does headquarters have information about his current situation?" Qian Zengming asked, somewhat puzzled.

"You'll know just by looking at it."

Seeing Chi Xiao's slightly mysterious smile, Qian Zengming opened the file with a heart full of doubt.

after a while.

"This... I really underestimated him. Even if it were me, I don't think I could have done as well as him." Qian Zengming closed the file with some emotion.

“Even you underestimated him, let alone us. Perhaps only the deputy leader has always believed in him!” Chi Xiao said with emotion.

"The deputy director certainly has a discerning eye."

"Also, you should warn Song Xi that he went too far this time, and the deputy head of the building is very dissatisfied with him."

"Hmm! Although Old Song is a bit cunning, his abilities are undeniable. The landlord probably kept him around so that he could cooperate well with Wu Hen's work."

"Where is Xiaorou?" Qian Zengming asked.

"With Shen Xu speaking up for her, she can stay in Dancheng, but she'll probably have to compete with the Yan family girl for the position of head envoy." Chi Xiao smiled helplessly.

"General Staff, there's no need to worry. I can tell that Wu Hen is a sentimental person. Besides, the Yan family once plotted against him. I think he will help Xiao Rou."

"I hope so!"

……

The Wind and Rain Pavilion is the territory of the Yan family.

After receiving the order from headquarters, Yan Mingyu immediately used his family connections to find out the cause and effect of the matter.

However, he never received the dossier that Wu Hen had submitted, which left him with no way of knowing the specific details of what happened in Dan Ding City.

All that is known is that the young man who was promoted by the deputy lord without regard to precedent successfully resolved the conflict between the Law Enforcement Hall and Dingyuan Palace, and gained the unanimous approval of both.

However, the little girl from the Chi family did not play any role in this matter, which is why headquarters gave Zihuai a chance.

When Yan Mingyu first received the news, he was completely stunned.

All he knew was that two days ago, the boy named Wuhen had been sent to the prison of the Law Enforcement Hall.

He originally thought that after causing such a huge scandal, the deputy head of the building would definitely be forced to remove that kid due to the pressure within the building, and then he would be appointed to take over the Ming Pavilion of Dan Ding City in a time of crisis, saving the Feng family medicine shop from dire straits.

He simply couldn't understand what could have happened in just two days that would allow that kid to defy fate.

Thinking of this, Yan Mingyu's gaze darkened.

From the moment he was born, the Yan family began to train him to become a Ming Pavilion member in Dancheng. Everyone said that he would become a Ming Pavilion member in Dancheng in the future, and even he himself always believed that he would become a Ming Pavilion member in Dancheng.

After all, the Ming Pavilion in Dan Ding City is usually formed by the Yan family in one generation and the Chi family in another.

However, after the Chi family leader stepped down a hundred years ago, the Yan family did not have a mid-level cultivator who could take over the position, which is why Qian Zengming occupied that position for more than a hundred years.

Just when everyone thought that after Qian Zengming was transferred to headquarters, it would be the Yan family's turn.

As a result, the deputy head of the building once again issued an order to appoint an outsider with no connections to take over the position of Mingge in Dancheng.

Qian Zengming had at least served as a Mingge (a high-ranking official) in other places, but what made that kid so special?

In terms of ability and seniority, in every way is he better than that kid.

But in the end, he became the biggest joke in the building!

He absolutely cannot accept this.
