1284: Chapter 1285: King Taishan Takes a Disciple 1284: Chapter 1285: King Taishan Takes a Disciple “Brother Zhu, what happened to you?”

Triangular Eyes was stunned by a kick, two of his teeth knocked out, his speech now whistling with gaps.

He was utterly clueless, why would Zhu Baoren hit him?

“What happened?

Who told you to act like this?

Even if it’s an inspection, we should be civilized, understand what civility means?

How have I taught you all this time?

Look at what you’ve done to their office!”

Zhu Baoren yelled.

Triangular Eyes was even more confused; wasn’t it Zhu Baoren who instructed them to do this?

Why did everything change all of a sudden?

The others were also stunned.

What’s gotten into the boss, has he lost his mind?

Weren’t they here to deliberately cause trouble?

Why has it suddenly turned into a civilized inspection?

The next moment, they understood why.

Zhu Baoren pushed Triangular Eyes aside and walked towards the desk with a smile, “Minister, what brings you here?”

Indeed, the one signing documents there, was the man in charge of the food and drug department, Director Liu.

He was responsible for the food and drug safety issues in Glazed Glass City.

One could say he was Zhu Baoren’s immediate superior.

A local official is not as good as one currently in charge.

An official higher in rank could crush you to death; not to mention that this one was more than just a step above him.

Zhu Baoren might not fear Ma Hanzu, but he wouldn’t dare not to fear Director Liu.

If this person spoke out, Zhu Baoren would have no standing in Glazed Glass City.

“Zhu Baoren, you think you’re quite something, don’t you?

You can come here, and I can’t?”

Director Liu sneered, “Are you trying to drive me away?”

“Minister, you misunderstand, there has been a misunderstanding!”

Zhu Baoren trembled with fear: “You’re my superior, whatever you say goes, how could I dare to drive you away.”

“Misunderstanding?”

Director Liu sneered: “I seem to remember him saying he wanted to report me?

What’s this, now I need your permission to conduct official business?

Why don’t you take over my job then?

Isn’t your Zhu Family very powerful?”

Zhu Baoren felt like crying.

The Zhu Family was based in Glazed Glass City, if this matter wasn’t handled well, they would be done for.

Officials were the last people you’d want to provoke, especially those with real power.

At this moment, Triangular Eyes and the others seemed to have understood.

They weren’t idiots; seeing Zhu Baoren this scared and continuously calling the other party ‘Minister’, it was clear there were problems.

“Thump!”

Zhu Baoren knelt on the ground: “Minister, if I had known you were here, I would have definitely not dared to come.”

“Heh!”

Director Liu sneered: “So what you’re saying is, you weren’t here to trouble me, you were here to trouble this factory?”

“Do you know that this factory’s boss is my benefactor?”

Saying benefactor wasn’t wrong, Director Liu owed his current position to Xiao Chen’s keen eye for recognizing talent; otherwise, Director Liu might have been eliminated during the interview process.

Back then, although he had the top score in the written exam, something went wrong in the interview, and he was rejected.

Luckily, Xiao Chen was passing through Glazed Glass City and came across this incident, choosing Director Liu.

Although for Xiao Chen, this was a trivial matter and he had long forgotten about it.

But for Director Liu, it was a memory engraved in his heart, never allowing himself to forget.

“Minister, but there are indeed some problems with this factory.”

Zhu Baoren gritted his teeth as he spoke.

“Heh, problems, are those the problems noted in your notebook?”

Director Liu sneered: “Unfortunately, I had already personally inspected these issues before you came, but how come the results seem different from yours?”

“Gulp!”

Zhu Baoren was dumbstruck on the spot.

He had never imagined that Director Liu, who usually scarcely left his office, would actually take the time to personally inspect this factory.

It seemed that the relationship between Director Liu and the factory owner was no ordinary one.

“Director Liu, naturally, your inspection would reveal no issues, it is we who made a mistake.”

Zhu Baoren wilted.

He was completely out of options.

He mainly didn’t expect Xinmeng Group to handle things so rigorously.

After taking over the factory, they managed everything in perfect order.

Trying to find a loophole proved futile.

“So you mean to say, you purposely came to pick a quarrel, intentionally giving the business a hard time?”

Director Liu said coldly, “You really do have a lot of power, huh?

Humph, go back and explain the situation to your organization.

If you don’t, I will investigate on my own, and it likely won’t look good for you then.”

It’s over!

Zhu Baoren knew that everything was finished.

His Family Clan had worked hard to get him into this department because it could choke many businesses.

They had also gained quite a lot of benefits from this.

Now, with just a word from Director Liu, he’s out.

And it wasn’t just getting kicked out; he could even end up behind bars.

“What, you’re waiting for me to send you off?”

Seeing Zhu Baoren kneeling there motionless, Director Liu said coldly.

“No, no need, I will write a confession as soon as I get back.”

Frightened, Zhu Baoren quickly stood up and ran towards the door.

He was really afraid that if Director Liu lost his temper, he would directly call on Yama Hall’s enforcers to deal with him, which would be even worse.

Seeing the situation, Triangular Eyes and the others dared not stay any longer and followed Zhu Baoren in a humiliating escape.

“Oh, isn’t that Brother Zhu?

What’s the matter, you finished your business?

Why leave in such a hurry, stay for a meal.”

Outside, Zhou Bing teased.

Zhu Baoren didn’t say a word, kept his head down, and fled outside like a madman.

He now regretted everything to death.

Damn Zhou Family, if it weren’t for their orders, he wouldn’t have run into this mess.

“Mr.

Xiao, all the documents have been signed, there shouldn’t be any problems now.”

Director Liu said to Xiao Chen.

“It’s not just about the documents, you need to supervise the factory too.

I don’t want my factory to be a place that harms others, understand?”

Xiao Chen said, “Okay, you can go back to work, thank you for your hard work.”

“No trouble at all, no trouble at all!”

Director Liu replied repeatedly.

He stood up, about to leave, when suddenly he saw a familiar face.

“Taishan, King Taishan!”

Director Liu was almost scared out of his wits.

Even though he hadn’t done anything wrong, seeing one of the Ten Kings of Yama, King Taishan here was terrifying.

King Taishan oversees Yama Hall of the Capital Prefecture.

This near three-meter-tall giant, just standing there, exuded an immense sense of oppression.

“Taishan, don’t scare people!”

Xiao Chen said indifferently.

“Isn’t he here to trouble you?”

King Taishan asked.

“No, he’s here to help.”

Xiao Chen said.

“What help can he offer?

If there’s an issue, just give me a call, who dares to touch your factory?”

King Taishan stepped in, standing in front of Xiao Chen as he spoke.

“Director Liu, don’t be afraid, you may go now.”

Xiao Chen said with a smile.

“Yes!”

Director Liu nodded, his eyes filled with astonishment.

Even King Taishan was so respectful in front of Xiao Chen, just who was Xiao Chen’s identity?

He only knew that Xiao Chen’s status was not low, but did not know what exactly Xiao Chen’s identity was.

After Director Liu left, King Taishan said, “Boss, did you have any other orders for me?”

He was summoned by Xiao Chen, there must be something he needed to do.
