"I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself!" Lu Pan closed the file in his hand and looked at Ye Wudao beside him.
Creak—
The gate of Zifeng Villa opened, and Ye Wudao appeared. Looking at Yuan Pu, who was prostrate on the ground, he directly ordered, "Half a month ago, six people went missing in Qingcheng. I give you seven days to investigate this matter thoroughly!"
"Yuan Pu accepts the order!"
"You may withdraw!"
—
Zifeng Villa, within the courtyard.
"Boss, Yuan Pu may not be able to find out the result. Should I transfer some people from the yamen?" Ye Wudao sought Lu Pan's opinion.
Lu Pan shook his head, "No need. Yuan Pu is the current sect leader of the Great Ape Sect. If he can't even investigate this matter clearly, then he has no need to remain the sect leader!"
"Moreover, nine people have gone missing in three consecutive days. This matter is peculiar and may not be the work of ordinary people. Yuan Pu, at the peak of Dark Energy cultivation, should have more than enough to handle any difficult matters in this small territory of Qingcheng!"
Lu Pan said, playing with a black and gold rhombic token in his hand. The front of the token was engraved with the words 'Supreme,' which was the Supreme Token of the martial world!
When he descended the mountain and entered the Tianzi Yamen, his nine masters each gifted him something.
The Supreme Token was a gift from his sixth master.
"How are things at the yamen? When will Tu Tu arrive?" Lu Pan asked.
"She will arrive tomorrow," Ye Wudao replied. "Also, Nie Qiulong knows his release from prison is canceled, and his voice is hoarse from crying. He's been clamoring to see the Boss."
A hint of amusement flashed in Lu Pan's eyes. "Little Loach should blame himself for not disciplining his subordinates properly... Keep him locked up for another seven days. I want to see his reaction after his release when he finds out Zhang Gan was killed."
"Should I let the会长 Qiulong teach him a lesson first?" Ye Wudao, upon thinking of Zhang Gan making a move on Lu Pan, was itching to raze their stronghold.
"No need. Little Loach has managed the Qiulong Society for many years, and its underground forces are deeply entrenched. Keeping him is still useful."
Lu Pan waved his hand. If Nie Qiulong was used well, he would be a sharp sword in his hands.
"Understood," Ye Wudao said, suddenly enlightened.

The next morning.
Mo Ziyan went to the company alone.
Due to Zhang Guo's incident, Mo Ziyan had been upset for two days, feeling that her abilities were still lacking.
Therefore, she planned to familiarize herself with the work related to finance, human resources, and marketing in the company to get a better grasp of things.
As a result, after the project managers reported, she felt her brain turning into mush.
Restroom.
Mo Ziyan called Lu Pan with some grievance, "Brother Pan, Ziyan is really useless. I can't handle anything in the company..."
Lu Pan knew Mo Ziyan had been discouraged at the company and could only smile and comfort her, "Sister Ziyan is so intelligent. As long as you have time, you will definitely be able to handle your work. Don't worry, let's take it slow."
"But... I don't know anything..." Mo Ziyan felt incredibly distressed thinking about how people looked at her.
"Brother Pan, I've made up my mind... I want to find a place to study first..." Mo Ziyan expressed her thoughts.
Lu Pan thought about it carefully and found it to be a feasible method. He smiled and said, "Then I'll help you inquire if there are any good business schools in Qingcheng, and you can systematically study corporate management for a few months."
Seeing Lu Pan's unconditional support, Mo Ziyan felt even more upset, "Brother Pan, am I being too willful..." kuAiδugg
"Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? It's a good thing you have your own opinions."
Lu Pan knew that Mo Ziyan had suffered countless grievances and cold stares over the years, and her lack of confidence and strong dependence on him were normal.
He truly felt it was a good thing that she could have her own ideas and make changes.
Only in this way could she completely escape from that unbearable past experience.
Shortly after their call ended.
A governor's decree swept through the entire Qingcheng business community.
Enterprises that cooperated with the Mo family would be exempt from 50% of their taxes!
Upon this order, the Qingcheng business community was shaken, and people rushed to verify the authenticity of this decree.
Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce.
"This, how is this possible?"
Huang Guangyi was shocked and terrified, as he had blacklisted the Mo family not long ago.
"Vice President, what do we do now? The Mo family must have hitched themselves to a powerful figure. We should quickly find a remedy!" Huang Guangyi's secretary urged him.
"Yes, yes, yes, find a remedy..."
At the same time, enterprises of all sizes in Qingcheng rushed to the Mo family's company.
The 50% tax reduction was minor; the signal released by the governor's office was what they feared most!
Mo Ziyan had just walked out of the restroom when several company directors rushed over, "M-Miss, something bad has happened!"
Mo Ziyan's heart sank, and she tried to calm herself down, "W-what happened?"
Wang Da, the Marketing Director, quickly said, "More than a dozen companies are blocking our company's reception desk, clamoring to sign cooperation agreements with us!"
"What's even more outrageous is that they say they'll prepay a year's worth of payment once the contract is signed!" Zhao Na, the Finance Director, also added urgently.
"N-not good..." Xiao Li from the administrative department ran over in a hurry, "Mr. Zhang from Jiasan and Mr. Li from Fubeng are fighting at the reception desk over signing contracts."
Mo Ziyan was still a bit bewildered. Why were so many companies suddenly rushing to cooperate with the Mo family?
"Miss, please come out and handle this," the Finance Director reminded Mo Ziyan.
Mo Ziyan came to her senses and quickly instructed Xiao Li from the administrative department, "Xiao Li, take me there."
Reception area.
Zhang Shuchao, with his beer belly, his face flushed red, said, "Li Fu, I think you don't want to cooperate with us Jiasan!"
"If you don't want to cooperate, then don't cooperate. Who cares!"
Li Fu's face was displeased. He had clearly arrived first, yet Zhang Shuchao wanted to push ahead of him. On what grounds!
When Mo Ziyan arrived, the two were arguing incessantly.
Seeing Mo Ziyan come out, they all showed flattering expressions.
"Greetings, Miss Mo!"
"We pay our respects to Miss Mo!"
"Miss Mo is truly graceful and outstanding!"
They had all inquired and heard that it was because Mo Ziyan had climbed onto the ladder of some powerful figure that the governor's office had issued the decree!
Therefore, they spared no effort in flattering Mo Ziyan, which was equivalent to flattering the powerful figure behind her!
Mo Ziyan's cheeks flushed crimson from the praise, as if all the praise she had received in the past twenty years didn't even compare to the current amount.
"Everyone, since you are here to cooperate with the Mo family, please proceed to the negotiation room first."
Mo Ziyan took a deep breath, feeling both nervous and excited, trying her best to calm down.
"Alright, we will follow Miss Mo's arrangements."
Everyone's previous clamoring demeanor was gone. In front of Mo Ziyan, they were as obedient as elementary school students facing a teacher.
Mo Ziyan relaxed slightly and instructed the administrative department, "Prepare some tea!"
Meanwhile, at the Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce.
"Quick, quick, quick, award last year's annual enterprise honors to the Mo family, the Lu family, and the Nalan family in advance!"
After much deliberation, Huang Guangyi felt that this honor was the only way to redeem his mistake.
"Chairman Huang, this... perhaps..."
"Perhaps what? I'll take responsibility for any issues!" Huang Guangyi's mind was filled with how to appease the Mo family.
"I will proceed with this immediately."
Soon, major media outlets in Qingcheng widely reported the news, directly elevating the Mo family to the altar of the Qingcheng business world!
