Chapter 148: They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what's the point of playing Liao Zhai



Chapter 148 We are all thousand-year-old foxes, why play Liao Zhai?

Huo Yuheng seemed unaware. He patted his chest, feeling very happy, as if he had suddenly become ten years younger.

Not only that, he turned around and showed off to Mrs. Huo: "Look how well this pendant suits me. It's much more classy than those tie brooches!"

"Put away all my ties. I will only wear this amulet from now on."

Mrs. Huo hung her head, enduring his endless boasting, and wanted to slap him in the face.

Huo Qinghuang's eyes twitched slightly, and he reluctantly took out another pendant and handed it to Mrs. Huo.

"Is this for me?!"

Mrs. Huo was so surprised that her fingers were shaking as she took the pendant.

This is a talisman made by my daughter herself. I thought only Huo Yuheng, the head of the family, had it, but I didn't expect that she could get one too.

"Well, I have prepared a lot of these amulets, one for each person."

Huo Qinghuang said with a faint smile, and took out another piece and handed it to Huo Jiayue who was looking at it eagerly.

"Me too? That's great, thanks sis!"

Huo Jiayue was extremely happy. He quickly took the amulet, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully before hanging it around his neck like a treasure.

"Aunt, where's mine?"

"And me!"

Huo Yuchen and Huo Baoer pouted and yelled in dissatisfaction.

"I've already told you, why are you in such a hurry? Put it on and don't take it off."

Huo Qinghuang glared at the two little brats, then took out two pendants and gave one to each of them.

It’s not too late to give the rest to the person you meet when you meet him.

The two little kids were happy at this, and they patted their chests and promised, "Don't worry, Auntie, we will wear them when we sleep and even take them off when we take a bath!"

"Qinghuang must have spent a lot of money to make so many pendants. Tell the boss to transfer 20 million to Qinghuang's card as a reward for his hard work!"

Seeing that Huo Qinghuang really gave away so many pendants, Mrs. Huo began to feel distressed again and quickly reminded Huo Yuheng.

"This is a talisman. Twenty million is not enough. We need at least fifty million!"

Huo Yuheng waved his hand and told Butler Wang: "Call the boss. Oh, and ask him to bring Yingzhen back with him. It's been so long, it's time to let out any anger."

The eldest brother Huo Lingjun was plotted against, which caused his eldest daughter-in-law Jiang Yingzhen to suffer a lot of grievances. He was happy to see the eldest brother suffer and let Jiang Yingzhen vent her anger.

But one should know when to vent one's anger. The marriage between the Huo and Jiang families involves many aspects. If things really get out of hand, it will be bad for both families.

"Yes, I'll do it right away!"

Butler Wang agreed respectfully, then hurriedly left the living room and called Huo Lingjun.

Huo Yuheng then tidied his clothes and went out in high spirits.

In the imperial capital, in the Shanhai Publishing House office building, 749 General Administration.

Director Long sat behind a large desk, holding a stack of reports in his hands, but his mind was wandering elsewhere.

According to feedback from various places, there are more and more strange things happening, and they are gradually becoming uncontrollable.

Especially around the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, the negative energy becomes more severe and evil spirits often hurt people.

These matters made the 749th branches in various places extremely anxious and overwhelmed, so they had to turn to the General Administration for help.

But the General Administration is also like a skilled cook who can't cook without rice!

Strange things are also happening one after another around the imperial capital. The general administration has so few staff that they are unable to handle it all, let alone have the energy to take care of those below them.

For this reason, the General Administration has been paying attention to various extraordinary people among the people in recent days, and wants to recruit anyone who has some skills to the bureau.

He offered Huo Qinghuang the position of deputy director of the Logistics Department, but he didn't know whether the other party could accept the goodwill of the 749th Bureau.

Director Long thought absentmindedly.

At this moment, the phone rang, waking Director Long from his thoughts.

"Huo Yuheng is here? Okay, I'll be right over."

Director Long hung up the phone and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Huo Yuheng is willing to accept the position, half of the work is already done. I believe Huo Qinghuang will not sit idly by and watch her father in a state of panic and helplessness.

He smiled and walked towards the logistics department with relaxed steps.

In the Logistics Department, Huo Yuheng stood in the hall with a file bag in his hand and a gloomy face.

People were coming and going around him, but no one came up to greet him.

If it weren't for the occasional strange looks from these people, he might not have thought too much about it.

But now, Huo Yuheng began to doubt.

The people in the Logistics Department didn't take him, the deputy minister, seriously at all.

After waiting for a long time, a young man came hurriedly and led him to the office.

This young man is not very old and looks like a college student who has just entered society.

Huo Yuheng knew that this was definitely arranged by someone, but he didn't know what the other party's purpose was.

“Is the logistics department so busy every day?”

He asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, it's like this. The work in our logistics department is very tedious. Sometimes we are so busy that we forget the time. So I neglected the deputy minister. I hope the deputy minister will not be offended."

The young man's face changed, and then he showed an awkward but polite smile.

He was just a newcomer who had just been transferred in. He dared not offend anyone, let alone get involved in the fight between the two big bosses in the logistics department.

Although Deputy Minister Huo is wealthy and should not be underestimated, their Minister Li has been entrenched in the Logistics Department for many years and has deep roots. He cannot be easily provoked at this critical moment.

"May I have your name?"

Huo Yuheng asked.

"My name is Qi Yu, and I've only been here a few days. I hope Deputy Minister Huo will take good care of me in the future!"

The young man introduced immediately.

Hearing this, Huo Yuheng's heart sank.

What a newcomer.

The logistics department asked such a newcomer to receive him, it seemed that they really didn't take him seriously.

However, these are not a problem for the head of the Huo family.

"Take me to the office."

He ordered calmly.

Qi Yu responded quickly and led the way.

This is an ordinary office room with several oil paintings hanging on the walls. The windows are made of transparent glass, so the scenery outside can be clearly seen.

Huo Yuheng waved his hand, signaling Qi Yu to leave, then went into the office and closed the door.

A middle-aged man in a suit and tie was working on documents in the office. He looked up when he heard the door open.

"Deputy Minister Huo, you are finally here. I am Li Chengliang. It is our first meeting. I hope you will cooperate with me in the future."

Li Chengliang stood up with a smile and extended his hand to Huo Yuheng.

"It's Minister Li. Nice to meet you. I'm Huo Yuheng. I'll be in the logistics department from now on. I hope Minister Li will take good care of me."

Huo Yuheng stretched out his palm and gently touched it with the other party, but he sneered in his heart.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, why play Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio?

Minister Li seems humble, but he is actually very cunning. On the surface, he greets him with a smile, but in fact he is setting a trap for him.

He just didn't believe that the Logistics Department turned a blind eye to him without Li Chengliang's instructions.

But it doesn't matter. He is just here to put his name on the list. It would be better if they find him for no reason, so that Qing Huang will not be implicated.

"It is an honor for our logistics department that Vice Minister Huo can come to our logistics department. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation!"

Li Chengliang said warmly: "Deputy Minister Huo, please take a seat. I'll go make some tea first!"

After saying this, he walked out and closed the door.

After this trip, he didn't come back for a long time.

Huo Yuheng felt even more comfortable being left alone in the office, and out of boredom he started looking through the office documents.

When he saw this, he was stunned.
