Chapter 362: Why are you showing me this?

Seeing Chen Ziyan leave, Chen Hao did not follow her.

Because Chen Hao knew that the tables had turned.

Before, Chen Hao had to beg Chen Ziyan, but now, it was Chen Ziyan’s turn to beg Chen Hao.

Chen Hao returned to the Extraordinary Bureau.

Having experienced all the previous events, Chen Hao’s prestige was now higher than Shangguan Huofeng’s.

"Brother Hao!"

"Brother Hao!"

"Brother Hao!"

As Chen Hao walked in, everyone greeted him with bows and scrapes.

"Brother, who is that?"

"What? You don't even recognize him? You must be new here, right?"

"That's right! I just came to report for duty today."

"Let me tell you, you can offend anyone in this bureau, but you must never offend him."

"Why? Is he some kind of cold-blooded demon who kills without blinking?"

"I'm telling you this, but don't go spreading it around."

While saying this, the guy looked left and right.

"He is even more terrifying than a demon. Anyone who offends him never ends up well."

Upon hearing this, the newcomer’s mouth hung open, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is he really that badass?"

"Of course."

"Xu Nuo, you're spouting nonsense again."

Cai Wenting walked over from a distance at this moment.

When Xu Nuo saw Cai Wenting, he was startled.

But being an old hand at playing the wind, he bowed and scraped to Cai Wenting, "Sister Wenting."

"Hmph!"

Cai Wenting let out a cold snort and said to the newcomer, "Don't listen to his nonsense."

"Brother Hao is the great hero of our bureau. You must have heard of the Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital."

"The Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital!!!"

"Sister Wenting, you aren't telling me that the Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital is related to Brother Hao, are you?"

People who could join the Nanjiang City Extraordinary Bureau were not low in intelligence.

Hearing this, Cai Wenting said directly, "I won't hide it anymore; this Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital was opened by our Brother Hao."

"What?"

The newcomer, Wang Qiang, was greatly shocked.

"It was actually Brother Hao."

"Holy crap, he's my idol!"

"Slap!"

Wang Qiang gave himself a slap.

"I'm truly damned for not even recognizing my own idol."

"Brother Hao is truly a great person. My neighbor's illness was cured at the Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital."

"Mm."

Cai Wenting nodded.

"Alright, go get to work, and don't listen to this guy whispering in your ear."

"Yes!"

Wang Qiang was a newcomer, so he was especially enthusiastic.

He immediately ran off happily to get to work.

Chen Hao walked to Shangguan Huofeng’s office.

"Sister Huofeng, didn't you say you retired?"

Chen Hao discovered a huge pile of materials stacked on Shangguan Huofeng’s desk.

Hearing this, Shangguan Huofeng revealed a bitter smile.

"The resignation application I submitted was rejected."

Hearing this, Chen Hao naturally understood why the higher-ups would reject Shangguan Huofeng’s resignation.

Who wouldn't want such a conscientious subordinate?

How could they think of letting her just retire like that?

"Let's not talk about this."

"Your Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital is getting bigger and bigger!"

"Hm???"

Hearing this, Chen Hao frowned.

The Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital had always been managed by Dong Yong.

Hearing Shangguan Huofeng say this meant that Dong Yong had expanded the hospital.

"See for yourself."

Shangguan Huofeng tossed over a document.

After reading it, Chen Hao frowned slightly.

It was one thing for Chen Hao to open a Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital in Nanjiang City, but now it was actually starting to extend to neighboring cities.

In Nanjiang City, Chen Hao had ways to cover for it.

But once it left Nanjiang City...

Who knew what kind of monsters and demons might come knocking?

After all, this was a big cake; anyone would want to take a bite.

"Sister Huofeng, do you have a way to help?"

Hearing this, Shangguan Huofeng couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"You thought of me at this time?"

Although Shangguan Huofeng said that, she took out another document.

"I have already greeted the folks in the surrounding cities."

"For the Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospitals we open in their areas, the profits will be split three-seven."

"We get seven, they get three."

"But they aren't taking that thirty percent for nothing."

"They have to provide doctors to the hospital and also provide protection."

Hearing Shangguan Huofeng’s words, Chen Hao nodded.

Chen Hao’s purpose in expanding the Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital was to gather believers.

As for making money, that was just a side benefit.

Giving thirty percent of the profits to other Extraordinary Bureaus was a fair deal.

Since they helped provide the land and personnel, collecting some wages was not a problem.

Now that everyone had a share of the cake, if any new people wanted to come in and stir things up...

They would have to weigh their own importance.

"By the way, I have always had a question in my heart."

"What question?"

"Why did you build this Hundred-Illness-Eliminating Hospital?"

As far as Shangguan Huofeng knew, Chen Hao was not the type of person to be filled with pity for the world.

Moreover, building a hospital with such fanfare was really too eye-catching.

"You want to know?"

Hearing this, Shangguan Huofeng nodded.

"Then come to my villa tonight."

"Go to your villa?"

Hearing this, Shangguan Huofeng’s little face turned red.

That night, Shangguan Huofeng did indeed go to Chen Hao’s villa.

She had deliberately put on makeup when she came today.

Tonight, Shangguan Huofeng was especially beautiful, like a blooming peony.

White-faced steamed buns were a man's favorite.

Shangguan Huofeng said to Chen Hao, "Can you tell me now?"

Hearing this, Chen Hao smiled slightly.

"What's the rush? Let's eat something first."

Chen Hao had Weilian prepare a Western meal.

After he and Shangguan Huofeng had a candlelight dinner...

Chen Hao took out a book.

"Sister Huofeng, do you know how to cultivate after the Monarch Realm?"

Hearing this, Shangguan Huofeng frowned slightly.

"I seem to have heard of this; it requires absorbing the Qi of National Destiny."

"But as you know, the Qi of National Destiny concerns the fate of a country."

"If too much is absorbed, it will lead to disasters for the country."

Chen Hao nodded.

"You are right, but what if I said we could skip this stage?"

"Skip?"

Shangguan Huofeng didn't quite understand what Chen Hao meant by this.

"Monarch Realm cultivation relies on the Qi of National Destiny, or bitter cultivation, but that progress is slow."

"But what if we cultivate Saint Realm techniques directly at the Monarch Realm?"

"Cultivate Saint Realm techniques?"

Chen Hao’s words left Shangguan Huofeng a bit confused.

It was like asking someone who couldn't even handle junior high school studies to suddenly learn high school curriculum.

How could Shangguan Huofeng know that some things had gaps?

No one stipulated that if you didn't learn junior high well, you couldn't learn high school well.

Some knowledge learned in junior high was basically no longer used by the time one reached high school or even university.

"You mean you have a way to learn Saint Realm techniques?"

Hearing this, Chen Hao nodded.

He handed the book in his hand directly to Shangguan Huofeng.

Looking at the book Chen Hao handed over, Shangguan Huofeng’s little face turned red.
