Chapter 101: Heroes find it hard to pass through a beauty's barrier! (Three updates for flowers)

  A hero is hard-pressed by a beauty! (Three updates seeking flowers)

  Nowadays, Yan Jing is no longer a child. She used to not believe in superstitions and never believed in ghosts and gods, but now the facts have completely overturned her views.

  Listening to Wu Zhengxie's narrative, she knew that there was indeed a place in this world called 'Strangers Keep Out'!

  At this moment, the entrance in front of him was clearly such a 'forbidden place'.

  She's lucky to have Wu Zhengyi, a true master, by her side, but what about others? What if someone else, unaware of the consequences, is swindled into renting this storefront by Huang Long and ends up in trouble like those people in the story just now?

  Maybe among those people, some of them used the money they had saved from working hard for half their lives, plus the money from selling their houses and land, to come to H city with full hope to find a storefront to do business, but were cheated by Huang Long intermediary like this, after entering, something happened, what should be done?

  Merchants seek profits, this sentence is correct, but if merchants seek profits on the basis of 'human lives', then these merchants... should be subject to legal sanctions.

  Even if there is no such clause in the law, can his conscience pass this test?

  Yan Jing didn't know, but in her heart, Huang Long had already left a very bad impression on her.

  At this time, the young intermediary who made the phone call walked over and smiled apologetically at Wu Zhengye and Yan Jing, "Police sister, this handsome guy, I'm really sorry about this matter. Our boss said that Huanglong Real Estate has a few other great storefronts. If you two can accept them, we can give you an 8% discount."

  "Tell your boss that we're interested in this storefront, but not for rent, we want to buy it." Wu Zhengxie said directly, "If he still wants to do business in H city, then quote a reasonable price. Otherwise, we have the ability to make Huang Long House Agency unable to stand in H city."

  "Ah!" The person speaking trembled and quickly retreated to the side to make a phone call.

  At this time, Wu Zhengye's mobile phone rang, "Xiao Jing, it's Director Chen's call."

  Yan Jing took the phone and retreated to one side, leaving Wu Zhengye with a proud face constantly scolding Zhang Huashan who was looking down at his toes.

  Soon, the other person who made the phone call came over and said, "Brother, just now the boss said that if you two want to buy this storefront, the price is negotiable. The boss has given a bottom line of 2 million yuan, and it can't be any lower than that."

  "What?" Wu Zhengxie's eyes widened instantly, "2 million? Damn it, how much did you guys buy it for? Inside and out, you guys only spent 700,000 yuan in total, now you want to sell it for 2 million?"

  "Uh, big brother, you're misunderstanding this." The man smiled awkwardly and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Big brother, when we bought this storefront back then, it was indeed only 7 or 8 million, but the prices back then are incomparable to now. Look, back then the price of a storefront was only 5 or 6 thousand per square meter, now it's risen to tens of thousands, and good storefronts have even reached 50 to 60 thousand per square meter, that's a tenfold difference!"

  "Besides, even if we can't rent out this shop, keeping it here is still an investment, right? In the future when this building is demolished, the government will compensate us at market price."

  Upon hearing this, Wu Zheng couldn't help but take another look at the tall building behind him. Turning back, he coldly snorted and said, "This building has only been built for a few years, right? According to Chinese law, it would take at least several decades to demolish and rebuild a building like this. Are you saying that you want to wait several decades for the government to compensate you?"

  "Big brother, we're just errand boys, can you please not make things difficult for us? The boss has already said that the minimum is 20 million. If it's okay with you, then we'll close the deal. If not, big brother, you can still take a look at other shops."

  "So, it seems that your Huanglong House Agency still has some confidence, is it because you have a strong backing? Tell me, who are you relying on? A certain high-ranking official in the H city government? The mayor Zhao Guanghua? The municipal party secretary? Or did you rely on a high-ranking official in Beijing?"

  "Haha, big brother you're joking, we are legitimate business, operating legally..."

  "Legal operation?" Wu Zhengxie sneered, "You dare to rent out this haunted house and harm people, and you still say it's a legal operation?"

  "Big brother, the government has announced that this shop cannot be rented." The speaker also had a bit of anger in his voice, he really couldn't stand Wu Zhengyi's arrogant attitude. "Besides, our agency only provides information, as for what problems there are with the house and shop, can't the lessee go ask themselves? If the lessee has asked everything clearly and is willing to rent our house and shop, we will naturally be willing to rent it out."

  "Haha, you still have the nerve to say that......" Wu Zheng's mischievous grin spread across his face as he was about to continue speaking when Yan Jing walked back with an unnatural expression on her face.

  Seeing Yan Jing's serious expression, Wu Zhengye's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Xiao Jing, what's this?"

  "Director Chen said that this matter will be handed over to him." Yan Jing said in a low voice, without avoiding the two people in front of her. "Director Chen said that our charity organization is a good thing and the Party Committee, government, and police department will all strongly support it. I also mentioned our situation here earlier, and Director Chen has already issued an order after consulting with Mayor Zhao. Several departments including the H City Industrial and Commercial Bureau, Taxation Bureau, etc. will jointly conduct a thorough investigation of the H City Huanglong House Agency."

  In addition, the government has ordered all real estate agencies in Huanglong to suspend operations pending investigation, and a notice is being rushed out, which is expected to be issued soon.

  The two young men in front of them first furrowed their brows in suspicion, then frowned even deeper, and finally turned into horror.

  "Zheng Xie, Director Chen wants me to pass on a few words to you, come over here." Pulling Zheng Xie back several dozen meters away, Yan Jing then spoke in a low voice, "It's like this, the municipal government and police bureau want to support our charity work, so they plan to buy this storefront in the name of the government and give it to us. Our police bureau will be responsible for renovating the storefront."

  Wu Zhengxie nodded in agreement, "That's more like it. Those with the surname Zhao and Chen have embezzled a large amount of silver..."

  "It's Mayor Zhao and Director Chen." Yan Jing slightly furrowed her brow and gave Wu Zhengxie a white eye, "They indeed embezzled a lot of money, but it can't be denied that they are good officials. At their position, not being corrupt would be an ungroup-like behavior. What's most important for an official is to have the people in mind and be able to plead for them. On this point, although Mayor Zhao and Director Chen can't get a perfect score, it's enough to pass."

  Yan Jing's explanation made Wu Zheng Xie suddenly fall silent. Originally, his thoughts were very simple, in his opinion, any corruption was not a good phenomenon, and not a good official. But he had forgotten the current social reality, and now hearing Yan Jing's explanation, he suddenly understood.

  For a moment, he couldn't help but sigh, and for a moment, he felt a bit disheartened. "So that's how it is," he thought to himself. "No wonder countless people have been trying to climb up the ranks, wanting to become officials. It seems that all of this is also caused by the character 'money'."

  "I really don't understand, is money really that good? Life is short anyway, why not lower your expectations and live a more relaxed and happy life? As long as you're happy, isn't that better than everything else? Why must one work so hard to earn money? And for the sake of this 'money' word, completely disregarding one's own life?"

  He had forgotten that Qian Jing had also asked him about the issue of "money" before, and his answer at that time was completely opposite to what he said now.

  "This is the reality of society, and we can't change it." Yan Jing said in a low voice, "Also, Director Chen asked when you plan to start the ceremony tonight, Mayor Zhao will be there in person."

  He waved his hand, Wu Zhengye seemed very calm, because he thought it didn't matter anymore. Money was really important to him in the past, including a period of time after he inherited Yang Yong's legacy, he also believed that money was extremely important.

  Because he also needs a lot of money to cultivate, however, the 'yuanli' that mysteriously appears in his body allows him to take a huge shortcut in his cultivation path. The magical yuanli can completely replace the various realms of Taoist cultivation, and is even stronger.

  So he no longer had to worry about money, and it was precisely because of this that he jumped out of the circle that ordinary people could not jump out of. From the perspective of an outsider, he clearly realized that 'money' is not a good thing.

  What can be done about it? He cannot change people's perceptions, not even a little bit, because the world cannot be like him, the world has its own troubles, and the world's "food, clothing, shelter, and transportation" all require money.

  "After dealing with things here, let's open the altar after dinner."

  Watching Wu Zhengxie turn around and leave, the lonely and desolate back view, in Yan Jing's heart was a slight chill. This feeling came very suddenly, Yan Jing couldn't help but run up to him, gently grasping Wu Zhengxie's hand, softly saying "Zhengxie, I'll accompany you. If someday you're tired of the stench of money in the city and want to return to the countryside, you must take me with you. From now on, I'm yours, I won't let you abandon me."

  No matter where you go, you must take me with you, even if it's death, I want to be buried with you.

  Wu Zhengye was stunned, his footsteps also stopped unconsciously, and his eyes sparkled with crystal tears. He was really moved by Yan Jing, and he didn't know why, but sometimes Yan Jing could be very moving. Anyway, Wu Zhengye thought so. She had a heart of a child, she was very persistent, this persistence could melt any man, make any man's heart move, and make him do anything for her.

  The Master said, "A hero is unable to pass by a beauty!"

  Perhaps the beauty among them refers to a woman like Yan Jing?
