No taboos

Chapter 185: Disaster in Champa
"Commercial law..." Xu Yuan thought seriously.

Although he had always looked down upon commercial law, Lin Wanmo's proposal made Xu Yuan seriously consider it.

The biggest benefit is that I can continue to improve my level of alchemy.

I have become proficient in using all the methods of Dan Xiu.

It would be a pity to just give up like this.

Xu Yuan then asked, "Do you understand commercial law?"

The stepmother shook her head.

"I'll ask someone tomorrow."

……

The next day, Xu Yuan returned to Champa Office early in the morning and found Qu Jinpeng.

When Mr. Qu heard that Xu Yuan was interested in studying commercial law, he immediately expressed his support: "Commercial law is a good choice.

Although other laws except "Taoism" are denounced as unorthodox, commercial law has actually formed a complete system over the years.

Compared to other laws, commercial law is much more advanced.”

Xu Yuan nodded: "Senior, do you know any senior masters who practice business law?"

Qu Jinpeng said with a smile: "You should go find Zhang Lao Ya, he is an old business lawyer."

Xu Yuan slapped his forehead and remembered: "Yes, I forgot about him..."

Qu Jinpeng: "But you have to be prepared. People who study commercial law are not easy to deal with. If you want to get something from them, you have to be prepared to pay more.

These people will never do business at a loss.”

After Xu Yuan came out, he called Fu Jingyu and prepared to go to Xieliu Lane together.

"Xu Yuan." As soon as he walked out of the door, he was suddenly stopped by Wan Yun.

"Thank you, sir, for letting you come over."

Xu Yuan secretly curled his lips, but still went.

"The matter of the Sanniang Society..." Xie Qingman was indeed doing this for Wei Yunhua: "If there is no real guilt, just let him go."

Xu Yuan said: "They ignored the seal of the Extermination of Filth Division, which is an insult to the prestige of the entire Extermination of Filth Division!"

This is the kind of thing that can’t be stopped even if you weigh a thousand pounds!

Fu Jingyu stood half a step to the left behind Xu Yuan, raised his head and looked directly at Xie Qingman: "My Lord, are you going to use the power in your hands to hinder the impartiality of the Department of Extermination of Filth?"

Xie Qingman felt uncomfortable.

Moreover, his dislike for Fu Jingyu is even stronger than his dislike for Xu Yuan.

"In that case...it's up to you."

Xie Qingman waved her hand, indicating that Xu Yuan could leave.

After Xu Yuan left, Wan Yun came in and said, "Sir, we can't tolerate this any longer."

Xie Qingman snorted coldly, "The Southern Office forwarded a document, asking the Mountain and River Department to work with our Champa Office on a case. Since Inspector Xu is capable and responsible, let him go."

Wan Yun was puzzled: "This is a chance to make a name for myself!"

"Even the Shanhe Division can't handle it, yet they're asking us for help. This case is incredibly difficult! The Shanhe Division is looking for someone to take the blame!"

Why didn't the Champa Office of the Mountain and River Division ask for help from its superiors, but instead asked the Extermination of Impurities Division for assistance?
Xie Qingman felt that they just wanted to put the blame on the Quhui Division.

……

Xu Yuan didn't intend to keep the people from Sanniang Society locked up forever.

But we must not let him go just because of Xie Qingman’s words.

Xu Yuan wanted to conquer the Sanniang Society, but if Xie Qingman let them go, all his efforts would be wasted.

The Sanniang Society will become Xie Qingman's vassal in the future.

Song Lu was waiting outside the door. When he saw the two of them coming out, he went up to them and asked, "Did she give you guys a hard time?"

Fu Jingyu was very dissatisfied: "She wanted us to release him in violation of the rules, and I contradicted her."

A hint of helplessness flashed in Song Lu's eyes.

But he shrugged his shoulders and said with a relaxed look: "It doesn't matter. With the Fu family and the Song family combined, she can't do anything to us."

……

Xieliu Lane is still the same as the last time I came here.

Lang Xiaoba went up and lifted the door knocker and knocked lightly a few times. It was Baihu's maid who opened the door.

Seeing Fu Jingyu from behind the door, she immediately opened the door and ran back happily like a butterfly among flowers, shouting: "Girl, the financial sponsor is really here——"

Accountant Yao, please do the math quickly. Brother Liu, guard the front and back doors, don't let them sneak away..."

Xu Yuan wanted to laugh. This little girl is a good housekeeper.

Fu Jingyu's face was a little stiff: "When has this young master ever defaulted on a debt?"

When they reached the door to the backyard, the little girl came out again, her face red as she bowed to everyone in frustration, "I'm sorry for being so rude. My mistress has already scolded me."

"Everyone, please follow me."

Not only Fu Jingyu but also Zhang Laoya lost face.

The old man sat on the bamboo chair next to the white fox, his face full of embarrassment.

Of course Mr. Zhang is rich.

Those who practice business law will never be poor because they never do business at a loss.

But Zhang Laoya also has a nickname called "Zhang Laokouer".

Not taking advantage enough.

There's no way he'd pay for it himself.

The white fox laughed and said, "The little girl is naive. I'm sorry to have made you laugh. But after you've read the list, you'll understand that this girl's behavior is indeed excusable."

The accountant next to him presented Fu Jingyu with a freshly written list.

Xu Yuan saw it at the slightest glance.

The list lists all of Mr. Zhang’s expenses in this yard according to the date.

At the bottom is today's consumption.

Not to mention breakfast, it's only the middle of the morning, and he's already ordered a pot of tea, four kinds of snacks, a burner of incense, five pounds of fruit, a pound of tobacco, and a back massage and a leg massage from the white fox girl...

The total amount listed at the end of the list is three thousand four hundred and seventy-five taels!
Xu Yuan's eyelids twitched.

A piece of workmanship of seventh-rate quality would cost only about two thousand taels.

This old guy is really good at making things.

Xu Yuan felt that if he wanted to ask Zhang Laoya about Shang Xiu's affairs, he had to be prepared to spend a lot of money.

Song Lu also leaned forward, only to glance at the final price before his eyebrows shot up: "You old man are so ignorant..."

Isn’t this bullying an honest person?

Fu Jingyu held Song Lu and said to Bai Hu, "I accept this account."

Zhang Laoya breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "See? I told you long ago that my old friend's student is definitely not someone who goes back on his word!
You are such a short-sighted bunch!"

Fu Jingyu added, "Senior, hiding here is not a long-term solution. Why don't you come with us back to the Quhui Division and stay there temporarily?"

Zhang Laoya suddenly fell silent.

The sponsor was cheated so badly that he doesn't want to continue paying.

Xu Yuan stepped forward and said, "If you feel that you are not free in the government office, you can also go with us to the South City Patrol Office.

We can make the decision there."

Zhang Laoya looked at Xu Yuan suspiciously: "What exactly is your purpose?"

"I won't let you down, Senior." Xu Yuan said, "You also said that Master Fu is a student of an old friend."

The white fox calmly brushed away the non-existent dust on the table with his sleeve.

Zhang Laoya knew that he could no longer stay here because the fox was chasing him.

"All right," he agreed reluctantly. "Go get the carriage ready. I don't want anyone to see me."

Song Lu couldn't help it anymore, he was really arrogant.

But Xu Yuan pointed at Lang Xiaoba and said, "Go hire a car. I'll take care of the bill."

The car took Mr. Zhang out of the yard.

The white fox stood at the door to see the guests off, looking reluctant to leave.

The girls in Xieliu Lane treat every guest like this.

His expression definitely doesn't seem fake.

After the carriage left the yard, Bai Hu turned back. As soon as the maid closed the door, Bai Hu immediately rushed back to her boudoir and packed some belongings. "I'm closing down today."

"I'm going on a long trip. I'll talk about everything when I come back."

She left the yard and ran away.

A few days ago, my brother in the mountains sent me news: the canal is about to flood Champa, so avoid it.
