"Mayor Zhang, could it be that you called us here to humiliate us?" Changsun Liangcai raised his head and asked.
His expression no longer had the original respect.
"What else? You are plotting evil in my territory. As the leader of this place, is it possible that I can't intervene? Do you think that the authority of Qingfeng Villa in Qingfeng Mountain is higher than that of me, the mayor appointed by the empire?" Zhang Longhai He shouted in a deep voice.
Changsun Liangcai and Wang Lai did not dare to accept this sudden big hat. If they refuted it again, it would be disrespectful and would even directly bring disaster to Qingfeng Villa.
Zhang Longhai was very satisfied with the state of the two of them. He cleared his throat and said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, you two. I am also very kind and will not get angry under normal circumstances. Also, you are my sons. The friends who came here to play were suddenly attacked by evil people, resulting in the murder of three companions. On behalf of this town, I would like to make a deep self-examination. It was due to my incompetent management."
After hearing Zhang Longhai's words, Changsun Liangcai's eyes lit up. He was trying to find excuses for them.
He hurriedly clasped his fists respectfully and said, "It's because our brothers and sisters are incompetent. We don't know what we can do to eliminate evil and promote good."
Zhang Longhai laughed heartily, nodded and said: "I will personally issue a letter of commendation and bring it back to you. If your sect is willing, we can host a demon-slaying conference. Whoever can successfully slay the demon will be invited by me." Personally report to the empire and ask the empire to reward you for the demon slaying incident."
Changsun Liangcai saluted respectfully again. At this time, his attitude had changed 180 degrees. This was simply a great opportunity that fell from the sky.
"Mayor Zhang is truly the pillar of the empire and a good official whom the people rely on. On behalf of my deceased brothers, I would like to thank Mayor Zhang in advance."
Zhang Ming and Zhang Yankai were both dumbfounded. They never expected that things would take such a turn for the better. This was completely unexpected.
"Okay, my letter of commendation has been written. You can take it back." Zhang Longhai took out a letter with the town logo and handed it over.
Changsun Liangcai quickly bowed and took it. He did not open it immediately after taking it. He could guess what was written inside without reading it. It was nothing more than praising them for their bravery in battle.
"Thank you again to Mayor Zhang, and Senior Brother Wang and I will take our leave first." Changsun Liangcai and Wang Lai saluted Zhang Longhai in unison.
Zhang Longhai nodded and agreed.
Changsun Liangcai and Wang Lai left. Zhang Ming came to Zhang Longhai's table in surprise. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Zhang Longhai wave his hand to him.
"Captain Zhang, please accompany Xiao Ming to find them today. Thank you for your hard work." Zhang Longhai said to Zhang Yankai.
Zhang Yankai was stunned for a moment, then realized that the other party didn't intend to tell him, so he quickly smiled and waved his hand, saying that he still had something to do, and left.
It wasn't until Zhang Longhai and his son were left in the living room that Zhang Longhai smiled and said, "Do you want to ask why things turned out like this?"
Zhang Ming nodded hard, he really wanted to know.
"I've told you a long time ago, use your brain when you are in trouble, read more when you have time, don't always think about playing, you can play anytime, but you have to know when to play and when not to play." Zhang Longhai said sincerely.
"Dad, I understand, first tell me why you are doing this?" Zhang Ming asked again impatiently.
Zhang Longhai sighed, this man is considered useless.
"This is also a way to get the best of both worlds that I suddenly thought of. First, I can use the help of this group of people to get rid of that weirdo. Second, I can draw our relationship with the surrounding forces closer."
"This first beauty can not only get rid of this weirdo who suddenly appeared, but also promote you and Zhang Xiuer. Since you like her so much, your father has to fight for this opportunity."
"The second beauty is that it can consolidate our family's status and let these forces know that as long as we direct and act in a play, we can bring them name and reputation."
Zhang Ming was confused. He never knew when his father was so powerful and calculating.
"One more thing, you invited these people with money, which means your relationship is not good. We are ordinary people, and they are so-called warriors. They look down on us. Even if they can make friends with you, it is because you have paid them. Money comes to build relationships with them.”
"But it's different now. This time we are equivalent to helping them. We need their help to trigger this incident. They have transformed from murderers who hired murderers to heroes who stood up for the town and faced the evildoers."
"And all this is just a matter of a letter written by your father and me, so don't look down on us ordinary people. Maybe we don't have the ability to fly to the sky and escape from the earth. We can't stay or go as we please, but we can use A pen will keep them honest.”
"It's right that you can learn to use the resources around you, but you have to know how to use which resources. If you want to become strong, you don't have to curry favor with anyone. Just be nice to your father and your mother."
"Also, you are not young anymore, so you should take it easy on weekdays. When I have the opportunity, I will pull you into a department. After a few years of experience, your father and I will be yours."
Listening to Zhang Longhai's words, Zhang Ming nodded thoughtfully. Maybe this is the so-called power. He had never looked at his father squarely before, thinking that he was just a small mayor, taking care of the trivial matters in this area. little things.
It wasn't until today, just now, that he realized that those warriors were not superior. Perhaps a word could change their fate, because his father represented the empire.
"Dad, I understand, and I will do my best in the future." Zhang Ming took a deep breath and said solemnly.
Zhang Longhai nodded happily. He stood up and patted Zhang Ming's shoulder and said, "Good boy, it's very valuable that you can see clearly now. Keep working hard. I'll wait and see how you change."
While the father and son were having a heart-to-heart talk, Changsun Liangcai and Wang Lai also left on horseback. It was just that there were six of them when they came, but when they returned, they were the only ones behind.
"Are we going to follow his plan?" Wang Lai rode up to Changsun Liangcai and asked.
Changsun Liangcai looked straight ahead and said slowly: "Originally, no matter what we went back to report to the master, we would be punished, and even more seriously, we would be charged with fearing death and harming the sect. In fact, I have been thinking of a better one. The solution has never been thought of.”
"Until just now, Zhang Ming's father pointed out a clear path for us and arranged a perfect excuse for us. It really transformed us from killers who collect money to do things into heroes who act bravely. The road was paved for us by the other party. , we must also follow this path down."
"Understood." Wang Lai nodded and responded.
