Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five.

If he didn't want the company to discover Chen Duo's "Reversed Heavenly Gang" ability and its power to determine her life or death, he could have simply let Chen Duo go to achieve his goal.

But this meant that Chen Duo had to hide in the shadows and was constantly wanted by the company. No matter where Chen Duo appeared, she would be hunted down by the company if she was discovered.

But after Chen Duo was brought into the company and this exchange took place.

The right to dispose of Chen Duo became reasonable in Zhou Fengliu's hands.

The company cannot arbitrarily dispose of Chen Duo, and wherever Chen Duo appears, as long as Zhou Fengliu is present, it is in accordance with the rules.

Zhou Fengliu wanted to achieve this through this transaction: to bring Shenji Bailian, Chen Duo, and others from the shadows to the legitimate and compliant.

In short, in this transaction between him and the company, the company wanted Shenji Bailian, while he wanted something reasonable and compliant. Both parties got what they wanted within their respective boundaries... and everyone has a bright future.

...

A masterpiece of craftsmanship...

Thinking about this, Zhou Fengliu couldn't help but think of Old Ma's amazing skill.

Why did he leave behind a copy of the Divine Hundred Refinements?

You say he coveted the Eight Extraordinary Skills?

of course not.

He clearly needs the smaller amount of money more.

Keeping a copy of the Divine Craftsmanship Hundred Refinements is like having real estate; if a kind person is willing to pay a high price for a copy in the future, he can sell it.

As for promising Zhao Fangxu not to give it to others casually... he assured that every transaction would be carefully considered and never done carelessly.

Whether you practice it or not is irrelevant... These Eight Extraordinary Skills are like real estate assets that hold their value much better than houses and cars; keeping them in your hands is a sure thing.

...

Besides that, he left behind a copy of the Divine Strategist's Hundred Refinements, and he had another small purpose.

That is, by keeping a copy of the Divine Craftsmanship Manual, he solidified his persona, making the company think he was greedy, and making Zhao Fangxu think he was a genuine "money-grubbing hermit".

Although he is already a "pay-to-win Buddhist," this extra step seems somewhat unnecessary.

But Zhou Fengliu is just that meticulous person.

He needs to make the company's senior management realize that he is an "ordinary" person.

...

Things are different now. In the company's eyes, he is no longer the junior employee he once was. Zhao Fangxu's attitude is enough to show how much the company values ​​him.

The more you value something, the more likely you are to worry about it...

A person who is without desires, without flaws, powerful yet uncontrollable, and whose future path cannot even be guaranteed... such a person is obviously a terrifying prospect for a company.

However, if you add labels like "Paying More Money Layman," "Emperor Yuhuang," or "Outstanding Employee," the level of horror doesn't seem so high.

His strength has not yet reached the level of the Heavenly Realm, so he still needs to be aware of the need for stability.

Before you can solo the Old Master without taking damage or withstand a nuclear bomb with your bare hands, you need to know where your bottom line is in terms of controlling the situation.

Within a reasonable range, he struck with full force.

Play it safe and develop cautiously, don't be reckless...

...

They're all scheming and cunning.

Unbeknownst to him, the core idea of ​​"young people are shrewd and calculating, while the elderly are ready to fight if they disagree" gradually took hold of Zhou Fengliu.

...

On the other hand, after speaking with Zhou Fengliu, Zhao Fangxu urgently convened another board meeting, which was already the umpteenth board meeting he had held in recent days.

Zhao Fangxu glanced at the directors present and then informed them of the deal with Zhou Fengliu.

After hearing about the deal, the directors showed different expressions.

“Chairman Zhao…you’ve just handed over the power to dispose of the Gu child to Zhou Fengliu so hastily? Isn’t that a bit too inappropriate?” Huang Boren said.

"What's wrong with that? What will we gain by imprisoning the Gu Child in the hidden fortress?"

...

P.S.: Just asking for everything, my godfathers, please study hard and work hard, sob sob...

I'm waiting for you guys here T^T

Chapter 194 If you mention the bonus, my brother Liu won't be sleepy anymore! (First Update)

Zhao Fangxu glanced at the people present, and seeing that no one answered, he then spoke:

“We will get nothing. Since Zhou Fengliu wants it, then let him have it... I have discussed with Zhou Fengliu that if Chen Duo really causes trouble, he will handle it and return the right to dispose of Chen Duo to the company.”

Hearing Zhao Fangxu's answer, everyone present still felt that this decision was very dangerous.

"In addition... a portion of the Divine Craftsmanship Association will remain in Zhou Fengliu's hands, which is also one of his conditions."

While everyone hesitated, Zhao Fangxu added one more point.

"?"

"No... what is he planning to do? He still has a copy of the Divine Hundred Refinements in his hand, what... does he want to cultivate it? No, no, he's already in danger enough, if he keeps the Divine Hundred Refinements in his hand... he'll be even more dangerous."

Huang Boren was the first to voice his objections.

"Chairman Huang, your awareness needs improvement..."

Zhao Fangxu glanced at Huang Boren, who was speaking, and then posed a crucial question to everyone:

"I ask you... if Zhou Fengliu doesn't hand over the Divine Machine Refinement to the company, what options do you all have?"

Hearing Zhao Fangxu's words, the directors present also had no good solutions.

indeed.

If Zhou Fengliu refuses to give it to the company and insists he doesn't have it... what can they do?

Should we ask Qiu Rang, who also mastered the Divine Refinement Technique in Biyou Village, for it? What if he refuses to give it to us?

They can't control this Divine Refinement Technique? Then why don't they investigate how the Body Cultivation Furnace was forged?

"The fact that Zhou Fengliu proposed this deal is already quite a favor to us directors. As long as he doesn't spread the Divine Craftsmanship, what impact would it have on him to keep a copy?"

"Will it make him even stronger? Even without this Divine Refinement Technique, his strength is already enough to warrant our attention..."

In response to Zhao Fangxu's words, Bi Youlong was the first to express his decision.

"I agree with Chairman Zhao's decision. Compared to the danger of the Gu Child, the bigger issue is how the Divine Refinement Technique breaks the population red line..."

"I have no objection...I agree."

...

Seeing that everyone expressed their agreement with Zhao Fangxu's decision, Huang Boren had nothing to say, and the minority obeyed the majority to pass the plan.

"Hmm... then it's decided." After making the decision, Zhao Fangxu looked at Bi Youlong and Huang Boren and asked them a question:

"Were there any problems with the interrogation of those senior staff members and temporary workers?"

"No..."

Hearing Bi Youlong's answer, Zhao Fangxu adjusted his round-framed glasses:

"So... the problem lies inside?"

“Alright, since that’s the case, let’s expand the scope of the interrogation. From now on, not only the temporary workers in Biyou Village, but everyone who has been exposed to the mission details must sit on a stool, including the regional manager and several directors including myself…”

"feasible."

...

After a moment.

In a tiered conference room, Zhao Fangxu gathered the executors of this mission—temporary workers from various regions—as well as Zhou Fengliu.

Zhou Fengliu arrived here after receiving the notification.

As far as the eye could see, several temporary workers, including Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao, were sitting in chairs chatting idly.

A cell phone was placed on the front table, indicating that Gao Erzhuang, a temporary worker from Northeast China, was also involved in the meeting.

Everyone greeted him upon his arrival, and Zhou Fengliu responded in kind before sitting down in a chair.

A moment later, Zhao Fangxu walked in with his hands behind his back.

"Very good, everyone is here. Let me introduce myself first. I am Zhao Fangxu, the chairman of Nadutong. Thank you all for your hard work this time. On behalf of all the members of the board of directors, I would like to express my gratitude to you all."

Zhao Fangxu began with a set of official jargon to express his gratitude before steer the conversation to the main topic.

"There's more to the story of why I called everyone here..."

"?"

Hearing Zhao Fangxu say this, Qiu'er became interested: "Boss... there's more than just thanks, could there be a bonus?"

"bonus..."
