The Fourth Financial Crisis

What really affected the situation in Haiya City was the spiritual energy mines that Su Yuanfeng accidentally discovered while investigating the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce.

Su Yuanfeng didn't pay much attention to the imported goods of the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce, but the cronies he sent to investigate reported that during the transportation of the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce's goods, the seals approved by Lu Anping were affixed throughout the transportation process, even if the goods from the Haiya Chamber of Commerce were The fleet staff did not know what items they were transporting.

This discovery immediately attracted Su Yuanfeng's attention.

Not long after the Immortal Ascension Conference in Haiya City, this batch of imported goods was transported into Haiya City in a hurry, and the seal of Lu Anping's special approval was affixed throughout the process. Even Su Yuanfeng was a little curious about what his ally Lu Anping wanted to do. .

Although the Haiya Chamber of Commerce cannot change Lu Anping's seal, Lu Anping's seal is not easy to use in Beimo Prefecture.

As a large chamber of commerce that engages in maritime trade, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce also has its own power in Beimo Prefecture. Su Yuanfeng immediately sent a summons to the Beimo Prefecture branch, requesting the Beimo Prefecture branch to assist in investigating the recent export of goods to Zhongzhou.

You won’t know if you don’t check, but you’ll be shocked if you check.

In recent times, Beimo Prefecture has actually exported a total of 300 spiritual energy mines to Haiya City, including more than ten enhanced spiritual energy mines that are definitely prohibited weapons.

According to the practice of interaction between the two parties, even if Lu Anping is a traditional ally of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, he cannot secretly smuggle such prohibited items behind his back as the president of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce!

But the two sides were allies after all, and Su Yuanfeng had no intention of launching an army to investigate. He just wanted Lu Anping to give him an explanation. Therefore, Su Yuanfeng did not even inform Jiang Hua'an, but went to Lu Anping's house in private to seek confirmation.

Faced with Chairman Su's doubts, Lu Anping was also confused.

Because this matter was done privately by the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce, Lu Anping had no knowledge of it at all, so he firmly denied it, claiming that he had not imported any goods from Beimo Prefecture privately.

However, Su Yuanfeng had already made preparations. He took out the Haiya Chamber of Commerce's internal import and export cargo shipping list on the spot. On this list, all the goods imported from Beimo Prefecture were listed clearly, only with Lu Anping's seal. There were no details about the shipment, only a solitary entry on record.

Seeing the scapegoat taken by his ally, Lu Anping's heart suddenly ran over with ten thousand horses and mud horses.

Because he really didn't lie!

In order to prove his innocence, Lu Anping also took out the import and export records of Haiya City Customs. After carefully comparing the records of both parties, the two found that all the information matched, except for the batch of goods with Lu Anping's seal. Number.

The whole thing is like Lu Anping secretly smuggled a batch of spiritual energy mines and then deliberately erased the records!

In fact, according to Zhu Ziming's plan, this record of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce should not exist at all.

As the white glove who handles daily chores for Lu Anping, Zhu Ziming will represent the Wuliangjian Sect branch every month and go to the Haiya Chamber of Commerce from time to time to investigate hidden dangers of tax evasion. This is considered a routine action of the Du branch of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and will not arouse any suspicion.

Zhu Ziming originally planned to take the opportunity of the audit to tamper with the imported goods records of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce. Since Lu Anping and the Haiya Department are allies, no one would suspect that Zhu Ziming would take the opportunity of the audit to tamper with the trade records. In this way Once this is done, the whole thing can be proven to death.

However, there was no room for error in betraying Lu Anping, and Zhu Ziming really did not dare to leave it to his subordinates without any worries. Tianshu City and Haiya City are about 700 miles apart, and the roads in the Tianshu Mountains are rugged and difficult to navigate. Zhu Ziming, who is not yet able to control the escape light, wants to do everything himself, so he is faced with the dilemma of not being able to do everything himself. In this case, Zhu Ziming could only prioritize the affairs of Tianshu City.

After all, Tianshu City's actions are more important, and the action deployment is mainly based on the Liu Family Chamber of Commerce. As Party B, the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce can only work in accordance with the Liu Family Chamber of Commerce's schedule.

Therefore, after receiving these batches of spiritual energy mines from Bei Mo Prefecture, Zhu Ziming rushed to Tianshu City to connect with Liu Qi as soon as possible, and directed Hejie to complete the laying and detonation of spiritual energy mines.

After the Nine Turns Tianshu Formation was destroyed, Zhu Ziming did not even return to Tianshu City to check the situation of the beast disaster. He rushed to Haiya City without stopping, preparing to tamper with the import and export records of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce through the opportunity of auditing the accounts.

In Zhu Ziming's opinion, he had plenty of time to act.

It would take a long time for the Mountain Eagle Sect to deal with the aftermath. By the time they found out that the explosion was caused by the spiritual energy mine, he would have already dealt with the aftermath of Haiya City.

What's more, Haiya City is currently experiencing a trade blowout period. Even if someone really wants to track down the spiritual energy mines, if they continue to investigate in turn, they won't be able to figure it out in less than ten days and a half.

However, Zhu Ziming never dreamed that under Yang Lu's deliberate guidance, Su Yuanfeng, the boss of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, would directly target the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce.

As a Foundation-Building Dzogchen cultivator, Su Yuanfeng rushed back to Haiya City three days ahead of him. When President Su confronted Lu Anping on the spot with the import and export records, Zhu Ziming had just walked out of the Tianshu Mountains!

As a result, the situation becomes awkward.

At this time, Su Yuanfeng and Lu Anping did not realize the seriousness of the matter. After all, everyone had done it more or less to import prohibited items, and the Haiya Chamber of Commerce had smuggled them for customers not once or twice. They had no idea that these spiritual energy mines almost blew up the entire outer city of Tianshu City!

Since both parties believed that there was a problem with the other's work, the meeting broke up.

However, what is supposed to come will always come. On the second day after Yang Lu rushed back to Haiya City, the preliminary results of the Mountain Eagle Party's investigation on the beast disaster were finally released. According to the on-site inspection by experts from the Wuliang Sword Sect, In conclusion, the reason for the failure of the Nine Turns Tianshu Formation was the simultaneous explosion of a large number of spiritual energy mines.

This scapegoat was so big that Su Yuanfeng couldn't hold himself any longer.

After seeking the consent of Haiya City Lord Jiang Hua'an, Su Yuanfeng ignored the alliance with Tongdu Branch and directly reported Lu Anping's suspicious behavior to the officials of Wuliang Sword Sect. Not only did he submit the complete list of import and export commodities of Haiya Chamber of Commerce, but also He also sent a large number of staff members from the trading fleet to testify on his behalf.

Compared with Su Yuanfeng's conclusive evidence, Lu Anping's arguments are much weaker. However, the crime of trying to destroy Tianshu City was too heavy to carry, let alone Lu Anping, even Mo Yunlan couldn't carry it. Therefore, the official Duzhitang immediately spoke out to support Lu Anping's statement, insisting that Deacon Lu was framed by thieves. Framed.

Even Yang Lu, the instigator, had not thought that things had developed to this point.

He induced Su Yuanfeng to launch a surprise attack on the Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce, originally intending to uncover the fact that Zhu Ziming had defected to Liu Hanxing. Unexpectedly, Su Yuanfeng's sudden attack solidified Lu Anping's charges.

Although Du Zhitang is still trying to be stubborn, if the real culprit behind the scenes is not found in the end, Lu Anping, as the top person in charge of Haiya City Customs, will still bear the primary responsibility for the losses in Tianshu City.

If things develop at this pace, the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce will eventually be pushed out as a scapegoat!

Yang Lu's crooked operation could be described as a slap in the face, but it broke the Zhu family's legs...

But Zhu Ziming is also a ruthless person.

He did not sit still and wait for death, but made the only right choice in Yang Lu's opinion——

He actually took the initiative to find Liu Hanxing, the patrol elder of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and publicly accused Lu Anping of coercing him into smuggling contraband!

For a time, public opinion in Haiya City was in an uproar.
