Chapter 216 Chapter 216

Chapter 216

This scene does look a bit like déjà vu.

A traitorous subordinate who rose to power by taking advantage of the protagonist's affairs, and a smuggler protagonist who is not as bad as his subordinates.

It would be even more right if the subordinates saw the protagonist and rushed up to humiliate him.

Unfortunately, from beginning to end, Sheng Xingsi did not see Gao Wenjun. He did not even turn his head to look in Gao Wenjun's direction.

Gao Wenjun's face suddenly turned dark, and the fluctuations of his spiritual energy became violent.

Fortunately, he was surrounded by members of the Special Management Bureau, and the various fluctuations of spiritual power did not expose him.

But Gao Wenjun would not be thankful for his luck - he would only wonder why he was so unlucky.

How come he happened to run into Sheng Xingsi when he was a grandson!

Thinking of this, Gao Wenjun's expression became even more sinister.

He came to the Special Management Bureau today to cooperate with the investigation.

He said he was cooperating with the investigation, but in fact his identity was semi-public. It could be said that as long as the higher-ups were willing, he and his colleagues could immediately become the Special Management Bureau's achievements.

However, those gentlemen in Congress are not happy for the time being - after all, they can be considered cash cows, and they can also bring them various kinds of elixirs through material exchanges. As long as they are smart, those gentlemen will still be willing to protect them.

The higher-ups also reached a tacit understanding that they would not really cause any damage to these businessmen.

——But when you are short of money, invite them to sit in your sphere of influence, and you can always squeeze some money out of them.

They are like pigs before New Year's Eve, they are fat all over, but it is not the time yet, others can only watch and satisfy their appetite, but once New Year's Eve comes, they can just wait to die.

But it’s not New Year’s Eve yet, so it’s just daily business, nothing will happen to Gao Wenjun.

But this cannot cover up the fact that he is now inferior to others.

It’s ironic when you think about it.

The subordinates he had targeted became the saviors, but he, as the boss, became a smuggler and even lost some of his old subordinates. He was also backstabbed by the woman next to him...

The more Gao Wenjun thought about it, the more his emotions fluctuated. Fortunately, he was surrounded by fans of Sheng Si, whose emotions fluctuated greatly, so his emotional fluctuations were not noticed.

——At most, the big fox on Sheng Xingsi’s shoulder looked at him a few more times.

Gao Wenjun didn't care much about the big fox. When Sheng Xingsi was still working for him, the big fox seemed to have become a spirit. Then it disappeared for a while and appeared again half a year ago.

The exact time is unclear. After all, his power has shrunk and he can no longer know what he wants to know like before. What he said in the morning, he would get the report in the afternoon.

Gao Wenjun was thinking and watching Sheng Xingsi finally finish instructing these Special Management Bureau members. Just as they were about to leave, those Special Management Bureau members who were all so arrogant towards them began to sincerely praise their minister.

The person was praised so much that he fled away, leaving behind only a lot of well-intentioned laughter.

Gao Wenjun finally couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly left and went to the interrogation room where he was supposed to go.

"Please sit down." The member of the Special Management Bureau who was in charge of Gao Wenjun saw Gao Wenjun come in, and his face, which was originally smiling foolishly at the phone, immediately became serious.

He pointed to the seat and said.

Gao Wenjun looked at the seat reserved for the suspect, feeling a little uncomfortable.

He had cooperated with many investigations before and was quite familiar with the position of seats like this one. He could even memorize the process.

But for some reason, he seemed to be able to handle it with ease before, but now he felt a little restless when looking at this seat.

——The restlessness that makes me want to overturn this seat.

However, when he looked up and saw the serious expression on the young member's face, he realized where he was.

"I'm not good at cultivating my Qi, and I can't keep calm just by seeing Sheng Xingsi's little bit of glory."

Gao Wenjun took a deep breath, thought about it, and finally sat down on the chair.

The members of this special management bureau are children sent by aristocratic families, but not from aristocratic families in City B, but from small aristocratic families in other cities.

Four years ago, he couldn't even touch the corner of Gao Wenjun's clothes, but now, this new member of the Special Management Bureau was interrogating Gao Wenjun seriously.

The seriousness in his questioning did not make his face less immature. Instead, it gave him the feeling of a child pretending to be an adult.

This person seemed to realize this and tried hard to make his expression serious.

But Gao Wenjun just felt it was ridiculous, and his feeling of humiliation became more and more obvious.

Perhaps it was really because of seeing Sheng Xingsi's current treatment that Gao Wenjun, who had always been good at cultivating his Qi, suddenly felt unwilling.

However, he still forced himself to steady his breathing and followed the procedure with a standard smile.

After going through the process and getting a ticket, the other party said they hoped he wouldn't break the law in the future. Everything seemed so familiar.

But Gao Wenjun's expression was quite ugly.

The junior members of the Special Management Bureau didn't really care about the smuggler's mood. It would be strange if these people were in a good mood.

Little did he know that his nonchalant attitude made Gao Wenjun's already gloomy face even uglier.

Old Zhang, who was waiting outside the door for his boss to come out, looked up and saw his boss coming out, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though he knew that Gao Wenjun would be fine, Lao Zhang was still a little worried every time Gao Wenjun entered the Special Management Bureau.

——The last time Gao Wenjun worked in the Special Management Bureau, he stayed there for several months. Lao Zhang didn’t even dare to recall the company’s situation at that time.

Fortunately, it finally sank.

But when Gao Wenjun walked in, Lao Zhang discovered that his boss's expression didn't look right today.

Old Zhang was about to speak when he saw a familiar car, known to everyone in City M, appear in front of the Special Management Bureau.

Lao Zhang's mouth, which was originally open, suddenly closed.

He saw that Gao Wenjun's originally ugly expression became even uglier after seeing the car, and immediately looked at his nose and his heart.

Anyone who comes close now is a fool!

*

Fortunately, Gao Wenjun recovered on his own and did not mention anything about Sheng Xingsi when he got in the car.

——Although they all knew that Sheng Xingsi’s existence was a thorn in Gao Wenjun’s heart.

But unfortunately, this thorn was made of titanium alloy and stainless steel aerospace materials, so even if he wanted to break it off, he couldn't.

In the end, it was Lao Zhang who took the initiative to bring up the topic.

"Boss, now that the business in City M has expanded, do you want to invite those old guys from City B to come over?"

Lao Zhang was serious when he said this.

Although City M looks dangerous, due to the epidemic, it is actually quite safe during this period.

Even the land that had been taken away by the cultivation world was taken back.

——Although it is inseparable from Sheng Xingsi.

"...They should stabilize in City B first. After all, that is their base camp, and Yingying will also take care of it." Gao Wenjun said after thinking for a while.

His complexion looked much better.

"The situation in City B is much better now. There are no more homeless people and children being picked up everywhere on the streets like before. It is much safer. Those old friends can also be protected by Miss Yingying in City B. They don't have to worry about their lives anymore."

Old Zhang saw that Gao Wenjun's expression relaxed a little and he also breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"Yingying is loyal and righteous. I didn't expect that among all the women back then, only these few people who stayed with me were left. I didn't care much about them."

Gao Wenjun said with a sigh, but there was not much expression on his face.

It was completely different from the emotional fluctuations that Sheng Xingsi had just experienced.

"The whole city of B knows that Miss Yingying likes you. Her love is pure."

Old Zhang said this insincerely.

In fact, in his opinion, if there was a woman like this who liked him enough to be willing to accept that he had other women around him, he would naturally be happy - but if his daughter was like this, Old Zhang would really do something like let that kid meet his great-grandfather.

Unfortunately, Mr. Zhang actually had a daughter this past year.

The original perspective on things has naturally changed, and the previous boasting about the charm of one's boss can no longer be continued.

If his fair, tender, and adorable little daughter becomes such a love-brained person...

Old Zhang shuddered all over and was almost discovered by Gao Wenjun.

"It's true that her love is pure, but Ling Wei's love may not be the same. I thought she was the only woman who could stand shoulder to shoulder with me for so many years."

Gao Wenjun's expression, which had been better at first, suddenly turned gloomy after hearing this.

Old Zhang tactfully kept silent.

After Gao Wenjun was imprisoned, Ling Wei, with the support of the Ling family, bought out Gao Wenjun's group and took away more than half of the assets.

And there is no discount!

After all, she was the boss's wife before, and she knew the group very well. It was like going home.

Old Zhang didn't have a daughter at that time, so he naturally went up to question Ling Wei.

"Is the boss not good to you? He gives you everything, even the martial arts method!"

But at that time, Ling Wei just smiled, without even looking at Lao Zhang, and turned around to drive the assets still in Gao Wenjun's hands out of the building that now belonged to her.

When Gao Wenjun came out, he saw Lao Zhang and a group of employees huddled miserably in the small office building that he had previously rented to Shengsi.

"...No wonder they say women have the most vicious hearts. Ling Wei really has no mercy at all!"

Gao Wenjun's face twisted as he spoke.

After he learned about this, he naturally wanted to confront Ling Wei, but he didn't know what Ling Wei had done. Except for Yingying and a few other women, the rest of the women all gathered around Ling Wei.

He even had an absurd feeling that his throne had been usurped.

After the falling out, Ling Wei's words were naturally quite hurtful.

"——We sisters are united, isn't that what you wanted to see? Why are you unhappy, ex-husband?"

Ling Wei said this with a smile, and the word "ex-husband" made Gao Wenjun so angry that he almost started a fight on the spot.

Unfortunately, he was still within the detection range of the Special Management Bureau at that time. Before he could exchange a few moves with those women, he was captured by the Special Management Bureau.

He came to City M not because he liked the talented people and beautiful scenery here, but simply because his business in City B could no longer be carried out.

He was even forced to abandon some of his old friends to take the blame for him before he could barely escape and come to City M.

Ling Wei really intended to kill him completely, and even found out that he had let other people deduct points from his driver's license.

His driver's license was revoked!

Just, just—just like a man!

Gao Wenjun thought about it, and his expression looked so ugly that Lao Zhang dared not breathe.

"It's over. If the boss comes back like this, the old guys in the company will be in big trouble."

Lao Zhang sighed and prayed for the old guys who were on duty today.

Fortunately, some god heard Lao Zhang's prayers. When Gao Wenjun returned to the office, before he could find trouble and get angry, he heard his cell phone ringing.

After seeing the caller ID, Gao Wenjun frowned and asked the employees who had just gathered to go back to their work.

He himself returned to the office.

Lao Zhang originally thought that he had nothing to do and was slacking off at his workstation, but just ten minutes later, his phone rang.

——Gao Wenjun is going to the government building.

*

Gao Wenjun stood in the mayor's office.

The mayor, who was originally so arrogant that he didn't even want to look down at him, was now looking at the person standing in front of Gao Wenjun with a gentle smile.

Gao Wenjun also subconsciously put on the most polite smile on his face, subconsciously put himself in a low position, and carefully echoed what this person said.

——Who made him stand in front of Congressman Benjamin?

That's a member of Congress!

What does that mean? Just one word from them could change the lives of hundreds of thousands or even tens of millions of people.

Although Gao Wenjun is arrogant, he is not a fool and does not know his own limitations.

——He dared to bet that even the old men of the Ling family would be humble in front of this congressman.

Although Gao Wenjun thought so, he gradually felt that something was wrong.

It’s not that this congressman is fake. In fact, his face is often seen on news channels. This is Congressman Benjamin.

—But why did the congressman praise him?

Gao Wenjun listened to the exaggerated praise of Congressman Benjamin in front of him and always felt that something was wrong.

After waiting for a long time for the congressman to finish his lengthy speech of praise, Gao Wenjun was thinking about what to say to continue the conversation, but the congressman's closing remarks made him suddenly open his eyes wide.

"…So Country A needs young and promising people like you to build the country!"

When Gao Wenjun heard this, he almost thought that this person wanted him to go to the front line to fill in the gap. Fortunately, this person was not so cruel.

——But going to a group of elite people in the world of cultivation to get information that you don’t know whether it is reliable or not is not much better.

He spoke in an impassioned oratory tone.

"…The country has provided you with shelter and protection. Now the country needs you, child!"

The congressman waved his hand and pointed in the direction of the space gate, then raised his neck and spoke.

"For the future of the country, take the camera and investigate the cultivators in the cultivation world! Of course, it would be best if you can sneak into the cultivation world."

Hearing this, Gao Wenjun looked at the congressman with surprise.

I'm going to explore the world of cultivation? (referring to myself).jpg

Councillor and Mayor: Yes, you go explore the world of cultivation.

Gao Wenjun was about to wave his hand, but at this moment he could see that some people deserved to be mayor.

The mayor of City M still maintained a decent smile and even helped to bring the contract and ink.

Gao Wenjun looked at the skilled movements of the mayor of City M and immediately realized that many people were probably fooled in this way.

He wanted to protest and say no, but when he hinted that he didn't want to go, Congressman Benjamin kept his expression unchanged but his words became increasingly sharp.

"——Mr. Gao is running a company, but I don't know what the main business of this company is. Can you help me, an old man, to broaden my horizons?"

After Congressman Benjamin mentioned Gao Wenjun's current company, Gao Wenjun finally signed the contract honestly.

After Gao Wenjun signed the contract, Benjamin finally smiled again and even patted Gao Wenjun on the shoulder again.

He even took a photo with Gao Wenjun before leaving.

Gao Wenjun looked at this rather intimate photo and let out a long sigh.

Now no one believed those who said that he and Congressman Benjamin were not in the same boat.

Fortunately, Gao Wenjun was an experienced person when it came to traveling to the world of cultivation, and he did have several romantic encounters in that world.

Although he cannot be said to be powerful, he is still one of the best among those who are attacking Country A in the cultivation world.

So a few days later...

On the border defense wall, under the cover of the dark night, several figures passed through the defense wall lightly through the gaps left by the guards before their shift changes.

Came to the world of monks.

*

After Gao Wenjun brought Lao Zhang and the others to the designated location, they discovered that the market was quite lively this time. Many businessmen who had not originally intended to do this business had returned to the market.

"It seems that the congressmen really spent a lot of money this time."

Gao Wenjun thought about putting the goods he had prepared in the warehouse he had rented before, and then directed Lao Zhang to find one of his romantic encounters.

He himself used his spiritual power to organize the items.

The way they traded with the world of cultivation was certainly not equal. At least they exported a large amount of clothes and cheap goods, but in return they only received some medicinal pills, and the number never exceeded 10.

And no matter how expensive the things you send them are, they just act like they are seeing toys and don't show any wonder at the expensive items.

But if you think about it carefully, you can understand that they are cultivators after all. What seems expensive to them may not be as important to them as a low-grade spirit stone.

Gao Wenjun had previously considered re-developing himself in the world of cultivation.

But unfortunately, he did not have a channel to enter the world of cultivation.

The last time, Long Feng and his team disappeared for unknown reasons. Even Xie Yuanzhi, who had helped Long Feng and his team before, has been missing recently.

He had asked people in the cultivation world several times, but after hearing the names Long Feng and Lin Zhu, all of them showed disgust on their faces.

Some people had sympathy on their faces, while others looked gloating.

But before he could find out anything, he was caught and used as a spy.

Just as Gao Wenjun was thinking about this, Lao Zhang, who was sent out by him to call for help, finally came to their warehouse with a fresh and lively female monk.

"Sister Yan'er." Gao Wenjun said affectionately.

But his eyes kept moving back and forth between the nun's pointed chin and swan neck.

Fortunately, the nun did not notice it. She was looking at these things with shining eyes, as if she saw her favorite toys.

Although to them it was just a toy.

You only need to pay a little bit of low-grade spirit stones to get so many mortal clothes, and all kinds of fun things. Even if you don’t take them to the cultivation world and sell them to other Taoists, you can still make a profit.

——Although the world of cultivation has become such a shabby state, at least those high-minded immortals don’t care what little toys these cultivators have.

"...Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Wenjun."

Yan'er smiled and handed over a storage bag, which contained two bottles of pills and a few spiritual herbs. This was the price that had been agreed upon before.

Yan'er admires Gao Wenjun as a partner because he delivers goods quickly and has a spirit of never giving up.

As the eldest sister in the family, Yan'er, who was used to taking care of her younger siblings, subconsciously took better care of them.

Gao Wenjun took the two bottles of pills naturally, and began to ask casually what had happened to Long Feng and Lin Zhu.

"——When that Daoist friend Long came down to earth, I fought with him a few times. However, after he returned to the cultivation world, there was no news from him. I don't know what happened to him?"

The female cultivator named Yan'er stopped playing with a diamond bracelet when she heard Gao Wenjun's words.

Gao Wenjun saw the female cultivator's actions and immediately said, "If it's inconvenient to say, Sister Yan'er, just pretend I didn't ask."

Gao Wenjun said this with a look of regret on his face. The female cultivator named Yan'er suddenly felt a little reluctant, and she sighed and said.

"In fact, there is nothing to hide. It's just that the people in the cultivation world feel ashamed."

Yan'er simplified the matter into Long Feng speaking rudely to a high-ranking cultivator before, and the cultivator didn't bother with him before, but he came to the sect again to handle matters. He happened to run into Long Feng again, and he was still speaking rudely to him, so...

"...So Fellow Daoist Long's cultivation was abolished like this? Then where is he now?"

Gao Wenjun said with some disbelief, he had some idea of Long Feng's strength, but such an arrogant Long Feng had his cultivation abolished by that man so easily.

Gao Wenjun's expression suddenly became serious. It turned out that the world of cultivation was indeed very complicated.

If you want to enter the world of cultivation, you must make adequate preparations.

After finding out this, Gao Wenjun tactfully changed the subject and did not ask too deep questions. Instead, he mentioned that he wanted to enter the world of cultivation.

"Sister Yan'er, if I want to enter the world of cultivation, what kind of preparations do I need to make? After all, the spiritual energy in the mortal world is really too little..."

Gao Wenjun revealed a sad expression as he spoke. This trick was quite effective on this female cultivator.

But Yan'er didn't fall for it as she did in the past.

She looked at Gao Wenjun, whose eyes expressed pity for the ignorant.

Then Gao Wenjun heard Yan'er say.

"The cultivation world is not a good place to go right now."

Can’t you see that we are all here to compete with you for your territory?

*

After Yan'er and Gao Wenjun completed the transaction, they returned to the conference room to prepare for the meeting.

On the way, she chatted with her companions for a while, and Yan'er told them what had just happened.

"It's funny too. We tried our best to escape from the cultivation world, but they wanted to get in."

Yan'er said with a smile, then she put away her smile and sighed, "But ignorance is fearless. If they knew what the current cultivation world is like, they wouldn't want to go there."

Her companion nodded and mentioned that many people were asking about the affairs of the cultivation world today.

This should be normal, but Yan'er always feels that something is wrong.

——Have these mortals ever asked questions in such a uniform manner before?

Yan'er was thinking about it, and suddenly an idea came to her mind.

'Forget it, just write this question in the daily newspaper, it will also make up the word count.'
