Chapter 130 Zhuge Repeating Crossbow
"Otherwise what?" Su Youfei crossed her arms and said with a disdainful look, "Don't tell me that a poor wretch like you bought other gifts."
Lu Chenyang ignored him completely and took out a short, sharp fish intestine sword from his body and handed it to Su Zichen.
She said calmly, "Su Zichen, this is something a friend gave me before."
"I don't need it, so you should give it to Chairman Zhuo."
In fact, Lu Chenyang could have gotten a recommendation spot simply by giving Zhuo Haishan a word.
However, seeing how interested Su Zichen is, it's good to let him participate more.
Of course, he didn't mention Li Donghao's name when talking about the Fish Intestine Sword, otherwise it would be troublesome to explain.
"Husband, how could I take your things?" Su Zichen's eyes were filled with gratitude.
"Do we need to be so polite?" Lu Chenyang said with a smile. "Just go and give it to Chairman Zhuo, and I guarantee you'll get the nomination."
Li Donghao had told him that Zhuo Haishan had also offered a large reward for finding the Fish Intestine Sword.
Giving this Fish Intestine Sword to Zhuo Haishan should have the same effect as the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng.
"Thank you so much, honey." Su Zichen was deeply moved.
He felt very happy to have such a supportive husband.
“Su Zichen, use your brain. Lu Chenyang is just a recently released convict. What friends could he possibly have?”
"What do you think could be anything good that his fellow inmates gave him?"
"Do you really expect this piece of junk to help you get a recommendation spot?"
"That's hilarious."
Deng Lingling and the other women echoed her sentiments.
"That's right, Chairman Zhuo is the president of the Martial Arts Guild, why would he take a fancy to this piece of junk?"
"You bought this junk from a stall on the antique street, right?"
"That's enough!" Su Zichen roared, her anger barely contained. "So what if this really was bought from a street stall?"
"Grandma once said that Chairman Zhuo has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and the gifts he likes do not necessarily have to be as expensive as gold."
"I felt that this bronze sword had a very ancient and profound aura."
"Perhaps, Chairman Zhuo likes this kind of thing."
Of course, Su Zichen didn't really think that this bronze sword was better than the other gifts.
But he just couldn't stand Su Youfei and the others bullying Lu Chenyang.
"Hehe, whatever makes you happy. If your gift gets rejected later, just don't say it's from the Su family."
Su Youfei chuckled coldly, her face full of disdain.
Just then, a middle-aged man dressed in a white training uniform slowly walked into the Zhonghai Hotel.
Behind him was a beautiful woman dressed in a fitted sportswear.
It was none other than Zhuo Haishan and Zhuo Yingying.
"President Zhuo, Miss Zhuo, you've arrived."
"Hello, Chairman Zhuo. Hello, Miss Zhuo."
Upon seeing Zhuo Haishan and Zhuo Yingying arrive, everyone present quickly stepped forward to greet them.
Lu Chenyang stood behind the crowd, and neither Zhuo Haishan nor Zhuo Yingying noticed him.
"We are holding a commendation meeting for public security management in Zhonghai City today. Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend."
Zhuo Haishan smiled amiably, "Of course, we wouldn't have achieved this without everyone's support."
"Please make yourselves at home, everyone. Don't be shy."
Once everyone entered the hall, Zhuo Haishan began to reward those who had contributed.
This time, the Martial Arts Guild wiped out several foreign forces in one fell swoop.
They also uprooted several malignant tumors that had infiltrated Zhonghai City.
Zhuo Haishan commended a large number of people at once.
"Hey, Xiao Jian. Why isn't your father among those being honored?" Su Youfei asked, glancing at the people being honored.
Hou Xiaojian was cursing inwardly.
Zhuo Haishan is now having his people investigate the accounts of his father's companies. How could he possibly be being commended?
But he calmly replied, "My father is currently busy building the martial arts school and can't spare the time at all."
"President Zhuo said he would have someone send the award to my father."
“That’s true. Building the martial arts school is indeed of paramount importance.” Su Youfei nodded and didn’t ask any further questions.
Hou Xiaojian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
His father hired professionals, and the accounts were done perfectly.
Therefore, the problem cannot be found out in the short term.
However, the truth will eventually come out, and we have to step in the process.
Take Su Youfei as soon as possible, then rip off the Su family badly, and then run away.
After the awards ceremony, the waiters began serving the dishes.
The food at Zhonghai Hotel was undoubtedly excellent, and everyone enjoyed their meal immensely.
After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, everyone's mood gradually began to rise.
The preceding ceremony was an internal commendation ceremony within the Martial Arts Guild, which the major powerful families didn't care much about.
What they really care about is the number of nominations for brand ambassadors.
"President Zhuo, this is a small gift prepared by our Sun family to celebrate the victory of President Zhuo and the warriors of the Martial Arts Guild."
Just then, a young woman from the Sun family presented a set of extremely valuable blue and white porcelain.
He stared intently at Zhuo Haishan's changing expressions, hoping to earn a sliver of praise.
"Then thank you very much, Patriarch Sun and Miss Sun." Unfortunately, Zhuo Haishan simply accepted the gift, smiled faintly, and did not offer any further comment.
"Does Chairman Zhuo not like these antiques and collectibles?" The faces of the crowd couldn't help but darken.
However, they did not give up.
Another woman in a red dress stepped forward. "President Zhuo, this is a bronze cauldron prepared to congratulate all the warriors!"
"Thank you." Zhuo Haishan nodded gently.
He then smiled slightly and said, "Patriarch Sun, I invited everyone here today simply to celebrate together."
"There's no need for such expensive gifts."
The heads of the various powerful families quickly said, "Protecting our homes and country and maintaining public order is everyone's responsibility."
"We also want to do our part."
Zhuo Haishan nodded slightly, without refusing further.
Next up is the Zhao family.
As a result, Zhuo Haishan only politely expressed his gratitude and did not say anything more.
After several families had gone by, it was finally the Su family's turn.
Deng Lingling eagerly stepped forward, "President Zhuo, this is the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow that our Su family prepared for the Martial Arts Guild."
"It is said that this was the first repeating crossbow personally crafted by Zhuge Liang."
"We hope that the warriors of the Martial Arts Guild will be like Zhuge Liang, winning every battle and creating new glories."
Deng Lingling had previously lost nearly ten million at the Treasure Pavilion and simply couldn't afford to buy anything too expensive.
With a determined effort, she took out an antique from her mother's collection and gave it to Zhuo Haishan.
"Oh? This is the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow?" Zhuo Haishan's smile brightened even more when he saw the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow handed over by Deng Lingling. "This gift is very good, and the meaning is even better."
"Your Su family is truly thoughtful."
"What? It seems that Chairman Zhuo is smiling even more happily than before." Deng Lingling stared wide-eyed in disbelief at Zhuo Haishan's expression.
