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

While Xu Si was telling Zhang Chulan about Zhou Fengliu's recent big moves, Zhao Fangxu seriously considered the impact of sending Zhou Fengliu to the Tang Sect on the company and how the Tang Sect would react.

Ultimately, he still felt that something was off about the phone call Tang Miaoxing had made to him a while ago.

It's worth noting that Tang Miaoxing had never mentioned the past of the Tang Clan or the turmoil in the world of supernatural beings before...

Why don't we take this opportunity to let Zhou Fengliu go and take a look?

Zhao Fangxu had some ideas.

If Zhou Fengliu were sent there, he absolutely could not go in the name of the head of the South China region; he would only be considered his special envoy...

...

"Chu Lan, what you said makes some sense. The company has always prioritized the safety of its employees."

"Well then, if you really want to go to the Tang Clan, I'll call Xiao Zhou... Whether he goes or not is his business."

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Fangxu spoke to Zhang Chulan.

"?"

Xu San and Xu Si were somewhat surprised to hear Zhao Fangxu agree.

They originally thought Zhao Fangxu wouldn't agree.

After all, the Tang Clan is located in the Southwest Region, not South China... Crossing regions would definitely be inconvenient.

"President Zhao, are you telling the truth? I'm so touched, let me kowtow to you." Zhang Chulan said upon hearing this.

...

South China region, Guangzhou.

Zhou Fengliu had just returned home.

At this moment, he is in Yanzi's low-rent villa, sitting in the courtyard preparing to eat hot pot.

On the table in front of him were various kinds of beef and mutton, as well as meatballs.

Drinks were placed at his feet, and music was playing from the living room on the first floor, making the quiet night less monotonous.

To his left sat Zhang Lingyu, the "chief steward" of the South China region, and to his right sat Chen Duo.

Meanwhile, Chen Junyan, the dog that was brought from Tianjin, was preparing to enjoy his dog food in a doghouse in the courtyard.

...

"Eat and drink as you please... Don't be shy, treat yourself like you're at home, eat whatever you want... Just give me 150 yuan after you're done."

Zhou Fengliu glanced at Chen Duo, then at Zhang Lingyu, and said this.

"..."

Listening to Zhou Fengliu's words, Ayu Zhenren, who was sitting to the side, had already gotten used to it.

After nearly a month, he had become even more aware of just how shameless this unscrupulous regional manager of Nadutong was.

He also learned where Chen Duo, who used to ask him for money for meals every day in Tianjin, had learned her teacher.

It's truly a continuation of the same lineage.

...

P.S.: The last day of March, and also the 130th consecutive day of updates.

Goodnight, godfathers. Sweet dreams.

Chapter 260 Zhou Fengliu: I will not do anything that is detrimental to unity. (First Update)

Faced with Zhang Lingyu's lack of response.

Zhou, the person in charge, didn't say anything more.

During the month he worked closely with Zhang Lingyu, he became even more convinced that Ayu's awkward personality—a person who was outwardly skeptical but inwardly honest—could be changed.

Of course.

He has also been working to help Zhang Lingyu change his awkward personality.

When he disguised himself as a notorious bandit in South China to visit troublemaking sects and powerful families, he would always bring along Zhang Lingyu, a highly skilled disciple of the Celestial Master.

What kind of disciple was he, what kind of upright and honorable person was he... Zhang Lingyu was pretty quick to act when confiscating the property, wasn't he?

He kept addressing me as "senior," which was quite offensive, and then used the Yin Five Thunder Technique in one hand.

Today it is today.

Even if Ah Yu Zhenren considers herself "untainted by the mud," she still carries the "simple and honest" flavor of the employees of Hua Nan Na Du Tong.

...

Looking at the sizzling hot red oil pot in front of him, Zhou Fengliu seemed to suddenly remember something.

Look at this hot pot, it's so hot and spicy, the water keeps bubbling when it boils, and it's still so piping hot when you eat it...

This reminded him of a movie.

What was that name again?

Zhou Fengliu thought about it for a while, but to no avail, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

He picked up a piece of mutton with his chopsticks, but before he could even eat it, his cell phone, which was far ahead of him, rang.

Kun, you're so beautiful!

Zhou Fengliu glanced at the caller ID and, seeing it was Zhao Fangxu, answered the call.

"Boss, it's so late, have you eaten yet?"

"Oh, you haven't eaten yet... If you haven't eaten, why don't you come to South China for something to eat? It's on me."

"Oh, let's get down to business... Okay, whatever your instructions."

Chen Duo and Zhang Lingyu ate while watching Zhou Fengliu make a phone call.

It's unclear what Zhou Fengliu heard, but his brow suddenly furrowed.

"You want me to go to the Tang Clan?"

Zhou Fengliu was somewhat surprised to hear Zhao Fangxu's voice on the other end of the phone.

He was having hotpot and singing with Chen Duo and Zhang Lingyu when he heard the news that he had to go to the Tang Sect before they even finished eating.

"What does the leader mean by this?" Zhou Fengliu asked Zhao Fangxu on the other end of the phone.

Why would someone in charge of the South China region need to go to the Tang Clan in the Southwest region?

and many more...

Zhou Fengliu pondered for a second, and suddenly remembered that according to the original plot, after the dramatic operation, Zhang Chulan would go to the Tang Sect to cause trouble.

Could it be that there's a dog?

...

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's question on the other end of the phone, Zhao Fangxu calmly replied:

"Little Zhou, it's like this. On the surface, you're going to the Tang Clan in your own name, but in reality, you're going as my special envoy..."

"The task is quite simple: secretly investigate whether the Tang Clan has been making any major moves recently."

"?"

Faced with this task, Zhou Fengliu chewed a couple of bites of mutton dipped in sesame sauce and then said:

"Well... you should tell Brother Hao, right? It's not appropriate for me to cross over into Brother Hao's territory, is it? I won't do anything that's detrimental to internal unity. Besides... I don't even know the boundaries of the Southwest region."

To know...

The person in charge of the Southwest region is Hao Yi, not Zhou Fengliu. It's very detrimental to the company's internal unity to arbitrarily cause trouble on someone else's turf.

"Little Zhou, you should understand what a special envoy is, and you should also understand what a secret is, right? I'll have Hao Yi send someone... then the Tang Clan will find out, won't they?"

Zhao Fangxu also offered an explanation for Zhou Fengliu's refusal.

Zhou Fengliu certainly knew what a special envoy was and what a secret mission was, but he just pretended not to hear what he wanted to hear...

Seeing that Zhou Fengliu did not answer, Zhao Fangxu, who was sitting in the office, silently pushed up his glasses and then said meaningfully:

"Xiao Zhou, I think I recently saw a few applications from your South China region for funding subsidies to refurbish equipment..."

"..."

Hearing Zhao Fangxu's words, Zhou Fengliu knew that what he wanted to hear had arrived.

"Can the leadership resolve this?"

"This is quite difficult, since all the regions are facing difficulties, and the headquarters is also facing difficulties. However, if you are willing to help the company with this, the headquarters will naturally give priority to your South China region."

"In addition... the company and I have seen your recent performance in South China... How about this, in addition to the normal travel expenses and business trip allowance, if you complete this task, the company will give you an extra bonus."

Zhao Fangxu had already made his statement very definitive, outlining conditions both for the region and for his personal interests.

After hearing Zhao Fangxu's conditions, Zhou Fengliu finally felt that there was still hope for going to the Tang Sect.

It's really not easy to squeeze some money out of the stingy headquarters.

“Boss, since you’ve said so, I have no choice but to go,” Zhou Fengliu said.

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's change of attitude, Zhao Fangxu said again:

"Didn't you say you wouldn't do anything that would harm unity? What? You're allowed to do it now?"

When asked about Zhao Fangxu's question, Zhou Fengliu said that he had only told half of what he had said.

He won't do anything that's detrimental to unity, unless... he gets more money!

As long as there's money to be made... that's like purging corrupt officials and eliminating traitors. How can that be considered detrimental to unity?

This is clearly a great deal of unity.

Despite thinking this way, Zhou Fengliu couldn't say it aloud. He cleared his throat and then spoke:

"Boss, I won't do anything that's detrimental to unity, but if it's to help the company share its burdens, I think Brother Hao will understand, since it's all for the good of the company."

After listening to Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhao Fangxu smiled and then said:
