After returning to the Jianzhou government, Du Guangzhong and the others hurried over to ask, "Daren, how is it?"
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said, "What else can it be? Wei Jiuduan had received benefits from the Nine Plains Wei Clan, so naturally, I couldn't take back my prefecture capital. I could give Wei Jiuduan even more benefits, but the final result would only make Wei Jiuduan's appetite grow bigger and bigger, allowing him to reap the benefits alone. Also, it is just a prefecture government. It is temporarily in Wei Changling's hands. Who says that anyone not in charge of punishment cannot control Guanxi? "
Speaking of this, Chu Xiu's eyes flashed with coldness. "Find some reliable people to monitor the movements of the Nine Plains Wei Family. But I suspect that they will not dare to act now."
The Nine Plains Wei Family had been rooted in the Guanzhong torture room for so many years. They should know the rules of the Guanzhong torture room.
Right now, even if Chu Xiu taught Wei Changling a lesson and humiliated the Nine Plains Wei Family, the Nine Plains Wei Family would not act against Chu Xiu. They would not even plot against him in secret.
The reason was very simple. Chu Xiu had a great influence on him.
He had just returned from Eastern Qi, and gained fame and power for the Guanzhong torture room. He was the face of the Guanzhong torture room.
No matter how powerful the Nine Plains Wei Family was, they were just a noble family in the Guanzhong torture ground. Touching Chu Xiu was equivalent to provoking the Guanzhong torture room. That was seeking death.
So Chu Xiu guessed that the Wei Family would not act. If they did, they would only act after a period of time, after Chu Xiu's power had faded a little.
Du Guangzhong and the others nodded. Now that Chu Xiu had returned, they only had to do as he said.
Chu Xiu said, "Right, find Patriarch Luo and the others. I have something to say to them."
After Du Guangzhong and the others left, they immediately looked for the Luo Clan's Patriarch and the others and notified them one by one.
With Chu Xiu's current status in the Jianzhou Prefecture, he basically had the final say. Therefore, when the news of Chu Xiu's arrival spread, the Luo Family Patriarch and the others immediately put down everything they were doing. Even some Patriarchs and Sect Masters who were cultivating in seclusion immediately came out to see Chu Xiu.
Two days later, everyone had gathered and were waiting obediently in the meeting hall at the entrance of the Inspector Hall.
Seeing Chu Xiu walk in, the people of the Luo Family all stood up and said respectfully in a loud voice, "Congratulations to Sir for raising the reputation of Guanzhong at the God Weapon Conference and entering the top ten of the Dragon and Tiger Roll!"
As he spoke, the Patriarchs and Sect Masters present all took out congratulatory gifts and handed them to Chu Xiu.
Only now did the factions of the Jianzhou Prefecture truly submit to Chu Xiu.
The power and influence that Chu Xiu had displayed at the God Weapon Conference was something that they could never achieve in their lifetime. It could be said that the current Chu Xiu was already on a different level from them.
And if he continued down this path, Chu Xiu would definitely become the Guanzhong Torture Room's Torture Officer or the Head of the Arrest Bureau in the end. He would be an existence that truly controlled a region, and the youngest one at that. His future could be said to be limitless.
Therefore, these people did not have any other thoughts. They could not wait to please Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu waved his hand and let someone take the gifts away. He said, "I appreciate everyone's intentions, but this is not a big deal. The top ten of the Dragon and Tiger Roll is not the top ten, there is nothing to celebrate. 'Little Celestial Master' Zhang Chengzhen has occupied the top ten of the Dragon and Tiger Roll for ten years, but I have never seen him in the Celestial Master's Mansion celebrating every year. "
The Luo Family Patriarch and the others quickly complimented, "Official Chu's cultivation time is much shorter than the Little Celestial Master's. In the future, he will definitely reach the same height as the Little Celestial Master."
Chu Xiu did not care about the compliments of the people present. He knew his own strength, and he did not need others to flatter him.
Therefore, after taking a seat, Chu Xiu went straight to the point. "This time, I have gathered all of you here because I have something to tell you."
The Luo Family Patriarch and the others quickly said, "Official Chu, please speak."
Last time, when Chu Xiu had not gained a firm foothold, they were still hesitant. This time, however, they did not dare to hesitate at all. It was as if they would do whatever Chu Xiu said.
Chu Xiu said in a low voice, "Everyone, the business in the Jianzhou Prefecture has been developing well these past few months, but the Jianzhou Prefecture is only so big. This is the end of the business. Have you ever thought of expanding your business to other places?"
The Luo Family Patriarch and the others looked at each other. Of course, they had thought about it, but they were not strong enough.
They were all local tyrants in the Jianzhou Prefecture. It was not a problem to compete in their own territory, but if they went to other places, they would be suppressed by the local forces.
Only a big family like the Ninefold Wei Family could cross several prefectures and have business in several places.
Seeing everyone's eyes, Chu Xiu said faintly, "I know what you are worried about. It is nothing more than a lack of strength. But don't worry, I will lend some of my people to you. I don't care about normal business competition, but if the local martial arts forces want to use force to cause trouble, I will help you solve it. I only have one request. Right now, you have the cheapest source of goods in your hands, as well as detailed channels. Once you enter the other prefectures, use the fastest speed to destroy their businesses. There is only one goal. The other party can either give up on these businesses, or choose to rely on me! "
The Luo Family Patriarch and the others were stunned. What was Chu Xiu going to do? Was he crazy? Was he going to secretly control the entire Guanxi area?
In the vast Guanxi area, there were actually only two forces. One was the Guanzhong Torture Room, and the other was the local martial arts forces like the Luo Family.
At present, Chu Xiu's strength in the Guanxi branch was almost at the peak. Above him was the Penal Officer. As long as Wei Jiuduan was still in power, it would not be his turn.
Most of the remaining forces were the local martial arts forces. As long as Chu Xiu could completely control them, his power in the Guanxi area would be even greater than Wei Jiuduan's.
To put it bluntly, Chu Xiu was suspected of making Wei Jiuduan a figurehead!
Looking at everyone present, Chu Xiu said faintly, "Everyone, have you made up your mind? I won't force you. If you want to leave now, you can quit. "
Everyone present suddenly shivered. Quit? They had already stepped into this hall. Did they still have a chance to quit?
Last time in the Phoenix House, Chu Xiu had also given them a chance to quit. In the end, they could not come back after they quit.
It was not that he could not return to Chu Xiu's service, but that he could not return to the human world.
Therefore, under the leadership of the Patriarch of the Luo Family, everyone present cupped their fists and said, "We will obey Official Chu's orders!"
Seeing everyone's attitude, Chu Xiu nodded his head in satisfaction. At this moment, Chu Xiu called Du Guangzhong and the others over. As long as they were martial artists above the Physical Invulnerability Realm. So he picked a family to help.
After listening to Chu Xiu's plan, Du Guangzhong said hesitantly, "Sir, what we're doing is actually breaking the rules. After all, every inspector has their own jurisdiction. If we go to other prefectures and touch the martial arts forces there, what will happen? "
Chu Xiu said calmly, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Inspectors cannot cross the line, but what about the Criminal Division?"
As he said this, Chu Xiu took out his Criminal Division token and said, "I forgot to tell you. Now, I am not only the inspector of Guanxi, but also a seventh-grade secret agent of the Criminal Division. I have the authority to mobilize all secret agents of the Criminal Division below seventh-grade. I will use my identity as a member of the Criminal Division to ask you to cross the line and help me investigate if the martial arts forces in other prefectures have done anything illegal. Is this still against the rules? "
When he said this, the eyes of Du Guangzhong and the others immediately lit up. Even the Patriarch of the Luo Family and the others felt more confident.
The status of the Criminal Division was known to them. In terms of martial strength, the Criminal Division was far superior to the people in the Punishment Hall branch.
Also, in terms of status, the Criminal Division was half a rank higher than the other constables.
Now that Chu Xiu had been given the identity of a seventh-grade secret agent of the Criminal Division by Guan Siyu, it was obvious what kind of status Chu Xiu had in Guan Siyu's eyes.
"Yes, Lord!" Du Guangzhong and the others bowed to Chu Xiu and were about to carry out the order.
However, at this moment, Chu Xiu suddenly thought of something. He said to Tang Ya and Yan Bugui, "Both of you, be careful. If the constables of the other prefectures come, remember to act appropriately. It will be troublesome if you kill someone."
Chu Xiu's secondary goal was the business lifeline of the entire Guanxi. Simply put, he wanted to be the person with the strongest control over the Guanxi after Wei Jiuduan and not become the enemy of the entire Guanxi.
If he killed the other constables in public, it would be very difficult to explain it in front of everyone.
Everyone present knew their limits. Chu Xiu was just a little worried about Tang Ya and Yan Bugui. Although the two of them looked normal, they were the ones who would easily go crazy.
Tang Ya raised his eyebrows and said, "I can't kill the constables, but can I kill the others?"
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said, "The others can do as they please."
Tang Ya grinned and said, "Then there's no problem. It just so happens that I'm a little bored during this period."
Seeing Tang Ya's smile, the Luo Family Patriarch and the others suddenly felt a chill.
At this time, Tang Ya also looked at the Luo Family Patriarch and said with a smile, "Senior Luo, your Luo Family's business is the largest. It just so happens that I will follow you."
The Luo Family Patriarch quickly said, "I dare not, I dare not. I still have to thank Lord Tang for your help."
Among the group of people under Chu Xiu, the Luo Family Patriarch knew Du Guangzhong and the others. After all, Du Guangzhong and the others had been constables in the Jianzhou Prefecture for more than ten years.
However, Tang Ya and the others who came from the Blue Dragon Society and joined the Guanzhong Torture Room later were all evil. The Luo Family Patriarch only hoped that this time, they did not make the wrong choice. Otherwise, they would be consigned to eternal damnation.
