Chapter 15
"You two are just trying to kill me to see who this lady is. Hurry up and inform your master, otherwise we will delay the important matter. Be careful of your bastards." Leng Zhiying reprimanded loudly and unceremoniously. This was not directed at these two guards, but It was made for the city lords here to see. Only by getting a head start can they gain an advantage in the subsequent negotiations.
When the two guards Ding Qing took a look, they realized that it was the little ancestor who had kicked open the door of Wuhun Hall two days ago. They were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat.
"Yes, yes, miss, let's go and report it right now, wait a moment, wait a moment..."
Before Leng Zhiying could wait too long, a chubby middle-aged man walked out surrounded by a group of people. The fat man almost knelt down when he saw Leng Zhiying's temperament, which was almost comparable to that of a member of the royal family. Then he walked up to Leng Zhiying and bowed his hand to her.
"I dare to ask, you are Miss Leng who I have admired for a long time~"
"It's me, what's your advice?" Leng Zhiying still had that arrogant expression, but that's right, regardless of the fact that no one in Notting City is stronger than Maiev. Just say that the purpose of her trip is to show the city lord a clear way to make Notting City prosperous, and she deserves to be treated with great courtesy from him.
"Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously, please come in quickly, young lady, we are discussing matters in the main hall~"
"Here, bring the young lady in." The city lord thoughtfully prepared a sedan for them. After all, his palace is not small, so he doesn't care. What if the young lady is dissatisfied and blamed?
After saying this and clapping his hands, six dark-skinned people came forward, gearing up.
Leng Zhiying always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it. He asked the city lord in confusion:
"Forget about the sedan, it's understandable. The question is where did you get these six such dark people?"
"Damn it, these are the strongest people in Notting City. These people can be called model workers. They are not afraid of the wind and sun every day, and in the end they become like this." He smashed his mouth and replied. : "You may think that these people are not very powerful, but their control over power is really unparalleled. Since using them, I once drank soup in a sedan chair, and the soup did not fluctuate at all."
After saying that, he came close to Leng Zhiying and said quietly to her: "These people are gold medal bearers who are not even above. If it weren't for you, the eldest lady, I would not be willing to lend it to others~"
Leng Jiying still felt strange. Why did he feel that getting on this sedan chair was like entering a coffin? So he politely rejected the city lord's kindness and went directly to the living room with the city lord.
After a while, several people arrived in the living room. The city lord kindly invited them to sit at the main seat. He did not sit down, but stood aside, his old face almost burst into laughter:
"I wonder what the eldest lady is doing when she comes to my humble residence."
"Oh, that's it. Mom, didn't I say two days ago that I wanted to bring those kids to make a fortune? So I came to you and prepared to show you a clear path."
The city lord's embarrassed expression flashed away, and he thought to himself that you are only six years old, and he might be older than you. However, I thought that no matter how much this aunt caused trouble to Notting City, some family would probably pay compensation in the end. Thinking of this, I relaxed and just let this aunt go. So he smiled and said:
"Then...I don't know what the eldest lady has to say."
"Let me ask you, what is there in Notting City that is unique to other places?"
"Of course there is, that's the Notting Forest, which is basically unique to our Notting City. There is a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast in it, and the upper limit is relatively high, so our place is also famous in the entire province. However, I don’t know why, Wuhun Palace has taken control of Notting Forest, saying it is to protect the safety of the people, but in fact no one knows what it is for. To put it bluntly, in fact, I, the city lord, also look at other people’s faces. In the eyes of Wuhun Palace, actually He’s just a commoner with some strength~”
The city lord spread his hands helplessly. After all, Wuhun Palace still has the final say in this world. Instead of officials from the empire taking over with full authority.
"In that case, you don't know what's in Notting Forest." Leng Zhiying curled his lips, knowing nothing about feelings.
"That's not the case. Although Wuhun Palace controls the place, I actually have some friendship with their palace master." After saying this, he whispered in her ear, for fear of being heard by others.
"I'm not afraid to tell you that the reason why I still have some savings now is because they opened a back door for me to let my tribesmen enter and develop, so otherwise in a place like Notting City. Even if I were the city lord, I would still have to eat Braan throat vegetables~"
Before Leng Jiying could continue to ask, he took out the map of Notting Forest directly and unfolded it with great discernment, and explained to her:
"Actually, Wuhun Temple used me at the beginning because I could mobilize a lot of manpower to assist them in development. Although Wuhun Temple is strong, it has very few people, so they surveyed this map and our people went in to develop it. .”
"These circled places are very suitable for the growth of elixirs. There are iron ore veins in these two crossed places, and there is a lake in the middle. It is said that it is also a geomantic treasure place, and the ten thousand year soul beast lives there. . But we don’t dare to mine, because almost all the people who go in are ordinary people, who can’t withstand the attack of the spirit beasts.”
His voice changed and he said:
"The main value is that you can plant elixirs in the outer areas, but we don't dare to go deep. After all, the older the soul beast is, the more unreasonable it becomes."
"This is also our main output. The toll collection is a small amount. Every year, 70% of the income here goes to Wuhun Palace, and 20% of the income is given to me...hehehe, Miss, you know. The rest is Ten percent of the total is used for urban construction."
Listening to the fat man's detailed introduction, Leng Zhiying couldn't help but look at him with admiration. He thought he was a waste, but who knew he was also a talent?
But yes, if he was really a waste, it wouldn't be his turn to be the city lord.
Thinking of this, Leng Zhiying was not ready to point fingers. Maybe someone already had a feasible plan, but he lacked some help. After all, he was just a "dragon crossing the river", and his understanding of the situation was definitely not as good as these local snakes. So he opened his mouth and said:
"I just said it directly. If you want to fully develop Notting Forest, what do you need me to help you do? My purpose is very simple. You can make profits from it, but the bulk must belong to the chamber of commerce I formed. In fact, the service They are also civilians in Notting City. As the city lord, you are actually the one who benefits, you should understand."
"Hey, this is natural. In fact, we have a plan for a long time, but we lack noble people like you~"
Leng Zhiying was actually quite happy to hear his flattery, but he still put on a serious look and reprimanded:
"Okay, stop flattering and just tell me your plan."
The city lord saw that the eldest lady appreciated him so much and took the matter extremely seriously, so he didn't underestimate her anymore. He might as well be more serious himself. If it really happened, he would feel very proud. He swept the seemingly valuable vases, teacups, etc. on the table to the ground, smashed them into pieces, and spread the map on the table.
