"Brother Yao, what do you think of the current situation in Jiemeng City?" Zhou Yang changed the subject.
"Haha, brother, the so-called authorities are obsessed with it. You are an outsider, so you can see it more clearly than me. It's up to you to explain it." Yao Daren is bold and bold, but he has a lot of scheming.
He already knew the purpose of Zhou Yang's visit. In addition to the matters concerning Fashi Hall, he was here to inquire about Jiemeng's future direction and personnel arrangements. In response, he implemented roundabout tactics and returned the problem.
"Haha, Brother Yao is so polite. I'll just give you my humble opinion. Please correct me if I'm wrong." Zhou Yang also knew that he had scruples, mainly because he was worried about his relationship with Qing Xuzi and it was not easy for him to comment on the current decision-making. foot.
Yao Daren nodded lightly.
"With the backing of the Tongzhou Merchant Alliance, there shouldn't be any big problems in the reconstruction of Jiemeng. The city lord is far-sighted and has made proper arrangements. All parties are satisfied, and the enthusiasm for reconstruction is extremely high. In less than a month, Jiemeng City will be back to its original state, or even better. . But what I’m worried about is that the better Jiemeng City is built, the more people may covet it, and the troubles will continue.” Zhou Yang said this, took a sip of tea, and paused.
"Oh, brother, why did you say this?" These words really aroused Yao Daren's interest.
"Haha, Brother Yao, of course you understand the reason, why do you come to ask me?" Zhou Yang chuckled.
"Brother, let's finish talking!" Yao Daren waved his hand.
"Well, although I am an outsider, I have some understanding. Before Jiemeng City was a piece of fat, Feixian City, the nearest city, has always been coveted, but because of the face and the old city owner It's just that it's not easy to take action because of its prestige. The old city lord and deputy city lord have no good impressions of Feixian City, so the relationship between the two cities is poor.
This time the two-bandit alliance launched a large-scale attack on Jiemeng, but Feixian City did not come to help. This is clearly a problem. It is estimated that that person wants to reap the benefits. No matter which side wins, the strength will be greatly weakened. When the time comes, if he steps in again, even if he cannot get the entire Jiemeng City, he will still have a place.
However, what they did not expect was that senior Qing Xuzi would stand up and take charge of the overall situation at a critical moment, and they did not expect that the Tongzhou Commercial Alliance would dominate Jiemeng after the war, which completely disrupted their plans.
However, they have been thinking about Jiemeng City for more than a day or two, and they will never give up their coveting because of the intervention of the Tongzhou Merchant Alliance. Moreover, Feixian City is not without a big backer. "Zhou Yang talked a lot in one breath.
"What do you mean, brother, there will be other moves in Feixian City?"
"I don't know if there will be any in the near future, but there will definitely be in the future. In addition, Jiemeng City belongs to the Heavenly Army Alliance in name. Now that the owner has suddenly changed, it is not impossible that the Heavenly Army Alliance will express something." Zhou Yang continued.
"Brother, I admire you, and I admire you. However, these are matters that the City Lord and the Tongzhou Alliance are concerned about. You and I are just one of the elders and cannot change the facts!" Yao Daren shook his head.
"That's true, but you and I still have a certain say."
"Oh? I'd like to hear some advice." Yao Daren seemed to hear the underlying meaning.
"Brother Yao must have heard about the personnel arrangements." Zhou Yang turned to the most critical issue.
Yao Daren may not be aware of what he said before, but he still said it. The main purpose was to make Yao Daren lower his guard against him.
Only he dared to point out the actions of Tongzhou Trading Company and Qing Xuzi, and at the same time showed that he was not a fool, but had a clear view of all the movements of Jiemeng City. Only then did the other party dare to open their hearts to him and form an alliance. There will be hope.
"Haha, I did hear something." Yao Daren smiled.
"When your four commanders resign, you must all have candidates in mind!" Zhou Yang went straight to the point.
"Haha, what I said is true." Commander Yao did not deny it and nodded.
"Don't worry, I will fully support Brother Yao!" Zhou Yang didn't ask who it was, he just expressed his position.
"Thank you, brother!" Yao Daren said sincerely, clasping his fists.
There are only six elders in the Presbyterian Council, and Zhou Yang is a person close to the city lord. If he clearly expresses his support for his proposal, the possibility of it passing will be greatly increased.
"You and I, brothers, should be."
"By the way, don't you have any ideas?" Yao Daren said with a smile.
"Of course I have some ideas. I have a subordinate who is at the peak of Tianyuan. You have met him. His name is Murong Yue. My requirements are not high, the deputy commander of Nancheng." Zhou Yang told the main purpose of the trip.
"Okay, I will bring it up at the elders' meeting." Yao Daren slapped his thigh.
Nancheng is his territory, and he still has a say in the positions of commander and deputy commander.
Zhou Yang had lotus in his mouth, first reached an agreement with Liu Xi, and finally formed an alliance with Yao Daren. His goal had been achieved.
Both of his streets are in Nancheng. If Murong Yue becomes the deputy commander of Nancheng, he will have thousands or even tens of thousands of city guards under his command. Even if he leaves, his property will still have a guardian.
And if it's done well, maybe those city guards will gradually join his command.
The two chatted happily, and it lasted for a full two hours before it ended. From drinking tea at the beginning to drinking a large glass of wine at the end, it was almost sunset before they knew it.
"Huh?" Suddenly, a teleportation note fell into Zhou Yang's hands.
"Boss, the people from Fashi Hall have shown up, and their attitude is very tough." Mu Wu's voice was heard in the transmission notes.
"Humph, we're still here!" Zhou Yang suddenly stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Little brother, please take a step in advance and meet again another day!"
"Brother, wait a minute!" Yao Daren stretched out his hand to stop Zhou Yang, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Si Fenglie, the commander of Beicheng, is also one of the shareholders of Fashi Hall."
He finally spoke out the questions he had reserved before, which also proved that he truly recognized Zhou Yang.
Si Fenglie is one of the six elders and is currently the commander of Beicheng, a master of fake elixirs.
If Yao Daren had not had a very speculative conversation with Zhou Yang and established an alliance, he would not have said this easily to avoid offending Si Fenglie.
"Thank you, Brother Yao, for telling me!" Zhou Yang clasped his fists again, then turned and left.
"Hey, Fa's Hall, isn't this your style of doing things?" Yao Daren said to himself after Zhou Yang left.
Zhou Yang returned to his mansion first, then raised his flying sword and swooped towards Nancheng.
He had just taken up the position of elder and was slapped in the face. If this matter was not done for good, he would never be able to hold his head high in Jiemeng City.
Now that he knew about Si Fenglie's relationship, he felt confident.
Although Si Fenglie is a fake elixir master and an elder, he is also an elder himself, and his overall strength is not inferior to Si Fenglie. But this alone is not enough to scare him. He must establish his authority when it is time to establish his authority.
"In the land of the elders, there are six elders in Jiemeng City. I even said it is the territory of the elders!"
On the street where Zhou Yang belonged in Nancheng, two groups of people were confronting each other. On one side were Mu Wu and three people, and on the other side there were seven or eight people. The one who spoke was also a late Tianyuan cultivator.
There were hundreds of people watching the excitement around.
"You are so clever. You clearly know that this is Elder Zhou Yangzhou's territory, and yet you bring up the elder division. This is clearly confusing the public and trying to do evil!" Mu Wu said tit for tat.
"Elder Zhou? Elder Zhou's name is not written on this sign. How can you confirm it?" the other party still argued.
"Strong words and excuses, this is what the city lord's palace has agreed upon, how can we allow you and others to mess around!" Mu Wu said angrily.
"Bring me your credentials!"
"You!" Mu Wu was very angry. He had no certificate to get.
"You said this section belongs to your Fa Clan. Do you have proof?" Mu Wu suddenly calmed down and asked.
"My Fa Family Hall has been established in Jiemeng City for more than a thousand years. It is well-known and well-known, and no one disbelieves it. This is the proof! But we have never seen you, so how can anyone believe you?"
"Whether we are locals or outsiders, we must abide by the city's rules. We are all subordinates of Elder Zhou Yangzhou. How can we be fake as a dignified elder of the city?" Mu Wu is worthy of being a cultivator who has led the army for many years, and his brains are very good. Also very flexible.
His words had a double meaning. First of all, Zhou Yang's identity as an elder was true. Secondly, since the elders are not false, then there is no falsehood that this territory belongs to them.
"Hmph, anyway, this section belongs to our Fa Clan Hall, I've decided to insert this sign!" The other party really did not dare to question the elder's identity. In that case, the City Lord's Mansion would not agree.
"Humph, don't you mean to say that this elder is lying?" Suddenly, a sword light fell suddenly, and Zhou Yang looked at him coldly.
"Zhou, Elder Zhou!" That man had participated in the previous meeting of the city lord's palace, so he naturally recognized Zhou Yang.
"He is Zhou Yang, Elder Zhou, so young!"
"I heard that he only has cultivation in the late Tianyuan stage. When I saw him today, it turned out to be true!"
"What happened in the late Tianyuan period? He once killed a fake Dan bandit leader!"
"Yes, young and promising."
"But Fa's Hall is not someone to be trifled with!"
The people watching all started thinking.
"Elder Zhou is of course true, but this territory..." That man dared to point fingers at Mu Wu, but he did not have the courage to face the elders of Yicheng.
"It turns out to be Elder Zhou. Haha, I'm glad to meet you. Shuang Kun, the head of the Fa Family Hall, has met Elder Zhou!" Just when the late Tianyuan cultivator was at a loss, another middle-aged man walked out of the crowd. The man has a dark complexion and a long beard.
This person is Shuang Kun, the head of Fashi Hall.
Shuangkun smiled and cupped his fists at Zhou Yang in greeting.
"It turns out we are the two principals. I'm glad to meet you." Zhou Yang returned the greeting with his fists clasped, holding out his hand so as not to hit the smiling man.
"I just heard about this. The superiors have told me that we can only measure according to the instructions above. I really didn't know that this street is your territory. I offended you. Elder Wanwang, please forgive me!" Shuangkun's attitude was very good. Accused repeatedly.
Zhou Yang prepared many methods, but it was difficult to use them at this time, so he said: "Whose territory is not important, the key is to follow the rules, otherwise everyone will enclose the territory randomly, then the rules set by the city lord's palace will be useless." A piece of paper!
Those who violate the rules will be severely punished by the city's regulations. Now that the city lord is newly established, the situation is very serious. In this regard, the city lord's mansion will use thunderous means to deal with all those who violate the rules! "
