Chapter 692 Information
Jiang Luo's eyelids twitched. He had originally thought Chen Yang wanted to ask about the relationship between the Southwest Prefecture and the Zhu family.
Jiang Luo looked at Chen Yang with a strange expression, "Are you sure you want to ask this question?"
This time, it was Chen Yang's turn to be curious.
"Then what do you think I should ask?"
Jiang Luo chuckled and waved his hand, "Nothing, nothing. If you want to ask about the mine, you've come to the right person. The person in charge of this matter in the Southwest Prefecture happens to be me."
"You must be aware that Yang Yang Yang Company's team and the Zhou family's team have had several matches. I believe you also know about the Zhou family's team. The most important material in the potions they used was mined from the mountain. We are very eager to know what these materials are, especially evidence of the Zhou family's involvement. But we haven't gathered any evidence. The Southwest Prefecture is currently having people investigate secretly."
Chen Yang raised his eyebrows, "Acting in secret? Are you saying you're sending Meng Qingxue from Modu to investigate alone?"
As soon as the name Meng Qingxue was mentioned, Jiang Luo was stunned for a moment, then asked, "You know Meng Qingxue from Modu?"
"Of course. When you sent her, didn't you check her information carefully? Before she went to Modu, she was always in Qingzhou City."
Chen Yang did not let Jiang Luo sidetrack the conversation and continued to ask, "Aren't you worried that Meng Qingxue will be in danger investigating this matter alone?"
Jiang Luo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He hadn't paid much attention to Meng Qingxue. She was also randomly transferred from Modu.
Although the Southwest Prefecture and Modu had quite a few cooperative relationships, they couldn't specifically name someone to be sent.
"Actually, it's not just Meng Qingxue investigating this matter alone. I've had several people secretly protecting her, so her life won't be threatened, at least."
"Sending someone from Modu is actually to put pressure on the Zhou family. The Zhou family is hiding too deeply now. Only by beating the grass to startle the snake can we make them make a move."
Jiang Luo told Chen Yang all his arrangements, but Chen Yang was very dismissive of this matter.
The Southwest Prefecture wanted to investigate the matter at the mine but didn't even dare to dispatch their own people, only daring to send a woman from Modu.
This was something Chen Yang disdained.
Seeing Chen Yang's expression, Jiang Luo roughly understood what he was thinking and could only smile wryly, "The Southwest is really different from Modu. In this place, the Southwest Prefecture's influence isn't as great as you think. The storms these aristocratic families can stir up are far more than you can imagine."
"I've heard your remarks about the Zhu family before, and I agree with some of them. For example, the Zhu family is currently being suppressed, but to say that they are easily bullied in the Southwest Prefecture is absolutely impossible. Even if the current Zhou family wants to take a bite out of the Zhu family here, they would have to see if they have the guts."
"The families that rely on the Zhu family, the powerful families in the Southwest, will not allow an external family to act recklessly here."
"Similarly, the Southwest Prefecture will not just stand by and do nothing."
"But all of this has a prerequisite, and that is for the Zhou family to make the first move."
Chen Yang's brows immediately furrowed. He initially thought the Zhu family was very passive in the Southwest region, but now it seemed he had thought too much.
A family with a thousand years of inheritance, if it didn't have some formidable foundation, it wouldn't be worthy of such a long lineage.
It was obvious that the Zhu family had done a good job in their relationships with various powerful families and with the Southwest Prefecture.
"This includes the mining business. Although the crazy incidents in the Southwest region appear similar to the situation of the Zhou family's players, there is no evidence yet. If the Southwest Prefecture interferes, it will give them a handle."
Jiang Luo was being completely open with Chen Yang, not only because he was Chen Yang of the Celestial Doctors Hall but also because Chen Yang and the Zhu family were on the same boat now!
Moreover, Jiang Luo was very curious about Chen Yang's intense focus on the Zhou family.
The intersection between Chen Yang and the Zhou family was nothing more than competition in football teams and business.
Chen Yang had no reason to come to this corner of the Southwest to trouble the Zhou family!
The degree of attention Chen Yang paid to the Zhou family was a bit excessive.
"I've told you everything I know. Now, can you tell me why you came to the Southwest and why you are asking about the Zhou family?"
Facing Jiang Luo's questioning, Chen Yang's eyes were sharp, "I came to the Southwest for another matter, but this matter has already been resolved."
"As for the Zhou family... the competition between Yang Yang Yang Company and the Zhou family's commercial platform is a matter of life and death for Yang Yang Yang Company. Naturally, I will participate in any opportunity to suppress the Zhou family."
Jiang Luo, who was beside him, was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily and pointed at Chen Yang with his hand, "You, you, you don't trust me and are using these words to fool me. Do you think I would believe that?"
"Even if what you said is true, how do you plan to proceed?"
Jiang Luo did not believe that Chen Yang was only pursuing this matter because of his company.
However, since Chen Yang was unwilling to say more, Jiang Luo naturally wouldn't rush to court trouble.
Jiang Luo was, instead, somewhat interested in Chen Yang's plan.
Chen Yang's plan was originally very simple.
After Zhou Zeyao's death, it would become very simple to infiltrate the mine.
As long as enough evidence was collected inside, the Zhou family's situation would become very difficult.
Previously, the Zhou family claimed that the football team had nothing to do with them, and it was all done by Zhao Jiamo and his disciples behind the Zhou family's back.
But if evidence linking them to the Zhou family could be found from the source of the medicinal materials, the Four Great War Gods and the Southwest Prefecture would not let them go.
But now that Chen Yang knew about Zhou Zeyao's resurrection, and coupled with the arrival of new warriors from the Zhou family, it would become extremely difficult to infiltrate.
Now, the only way was to have the Southwest Prefecture step forward.
"After all, it's on your Southwest Prefecture's territory, so a search shouldn't be a problem, right? I'll take this opportunity to sneak in."
"Also, I need a copy of the information on these Zhou family warriors."
Facing Chen Yang's request, Jiang Luo did not agree immediately.
Chen Yang was asking the Southwest Prefecture to emerge from hiding. Although Jiang Luo held a high position in the Southwest Prefecture, he couldn't make such a big decision.
"I can give you the information on the Zhou family warriors now, but I'll give you an answer about helping you infiltrate the mine tonight."
Chen Yang was not surprised by Jiang Luo's answer.
When Chen Yang's request was relayed to the Southwest Prefecture through Jiang Luo, the Governor of the entire Southwest Prefecture, Ji Jingyi, retorted, "If Chen Yang dies in the mine, how much of a reaction will it cause?"
