Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

After Gu Jiang left, Zhou Ping quickly walked up to Zhou Zheng with a look of disbelief on his face.

Following him all the way, Zhou Ping came to understand Zhou Zheng's temperament.

He really couldn't understand why Zhou Zheng would choose Gu Jiang in this situation.

"Is there anyone who knows Xiangjun better than Gu Jiang?"

"If we want to reorganize Xiang County, it will be a lot of trouble without Gu Jiang."

Zhou Zheng's words are not unreasonable.

"Tan'er has investigated Gu Jiang a long time ago. Although this person is somewhat greedy for money and profit, and even afraid of life and death, he has not done anything excessive in the past few years in Xiang County."

"In addition, he has no connections or background in the DPRK, so he is considered a good choice."

After hearing this, Zhou Fang suddenly realized.

"What if he doesn't cooperate?!"

"Then there is no need for such people to stay."

There was a hint of killing intent in Zhou Zheng's words.

"Boss, I always feel that the reason why the landowners made this so-called cooperation this time is not simple."

Although Zhou Ping was carefree on weekdays, he noticed something was wrong at this time.

"Prince, there is someone outside asking to see you."

Before Zhou Zheng could respond, Lei Tong hurried over.

Ever since Zhou Zheng entered the city lord's palace, there has been an endless stream of people coming to visit, including officials from various places and powerful country gentry, but none of these Zhou Zheng were seen.

"He said he belongs to Miss Yunxi."

Seeing Zhou Zheng's frown, Lei Tong quickly gave an overview of the visitor.

When he heard the word Yunxi, Zhou Zheng's pupils flickered slightly.

I had learned from Mu Qingwan before that Jin Chan gave away 200,000 taels of silver at the auction, and would send someone to contact him later.

I didn't expect it to come so quickly.

"Let him in."

"I also want to know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd at this golden cicada auction."

......

"Xiaomin, I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

A middle-aged strong man saluted Zhou Zheng, who was the so-called person sent by Yunxi.

Then, he handed Zhou Zheng a jade pendant.

Seeing the jade pendant, Zhou Zheng nodded. It was something that Yunxi had been wearing, and it was obviously something to confirm the man's identity.

"I don't like nonsense, so let's get straight to the point."

Zhou Zheng's eyes fell on the middle-aged man, and there was a hint of curiosity in his words.

The Golden Cicada Auction is the number one auction in the Black Triangle Region. I didn’t expect to see people from the Golden Chan Auction in this remote Xiang County. This actually surprised Zhou Zheng.

"Go back to the Crown Prince, Miss Yunxi, and ask the people to obey your arrangements."

The man lowered his head in a deep voice, which made Zhou Zheng and Zhou Ping a little confused.

Follow Zhou Zheng’s arrangements! ?

What does it mean?

"There is no shortage of people around the boss, and there is no shortage of people in the mansion now."

Zhou Ping quickly jumped out to help Zhou Zheng refuse.

How could a guy of unknown origin stand beside Zhou Zheng so easily? !

Zhou Zheng said nothing, obviously acquiescing to Zhou Ping's intention.

If Yunxi hadn't sent him two hundred thousand taels of silver, with Zhou Zheng's temperament, he wouldn't have even spoken nonsense to the man in front of him.

"Because Your Highness needs me."

The man didn't pay attention to Zhou Ping's attitude. Instead, his eyes fell directly on Zhou Zheng, their eyes met, and he spoke seriously.

"need you?"

These three words made Zhou Zheng's pupils shrink slightly, and then he burst into laughter.

When it comes to martial arts, Zhou Zheng is surrounded by Gan Mo, Lei Tong and others.

In terms of beauties, Zhou Zheng has the most beautiful ladies like Gong Tan, Su Xun'er and Mu Qingwan as his companions.

In terms of money, Zhou Zheng had more than two million taels of silver at this time.

Zhou Zheng really couldn't figure out what this middle-aged man needed.

"Your Highness, we have strongholds in Xiang County's eighteen counties and seventy-two cities."

"We also have strongholds in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Great Xia Kingdom, and Great Yuan Dynasty."

"As long as His Highness is willing, you can know everything about Xiangjun."

"Even in the isolation of Xiangjun, one can understand the situation in the world."

The middle-aged man spoke calmly.

But what he said made Zhou Zheng and everyone present's heart beat faster.

Even Gong Tan, as the deputy commander of the Imperial City Department, his pupils dilated a lot at this moment, and his eyes were filled with incredulity.

You know, how much power is needed behind these simple words! ?

Not to mention the distance, just the fact that their influence is spread throughout the 72 cities in 18 counties in Xiang County is quite shocking.

"What kind of force is the Golden Cicada Auction?"

Gong Tan kept recalling clues about the Jin Chan Auction in her mind. In her impression, although the Jin Chan Auction was famous and well-known in the Zhou Dynasty, it was only an auction.

When did we have such powerful intelligence capabilities! ?

It even completely avoided the detection of the Imperial City Secretary!

If what the man in front of him said was true, an invisible crisis quietly rose in Gong Tan's heart.

"I, why should I trust you?"

Zhou Zheng controlled his emotions, and even showed a trace of disdain in his eyes.

"Please take a look, Prince Edward."

The middle-aged man then handed a roster to Zhou Zheng.

Without doubting his presence, Zhou Zheng opened it and read through it.

But when the contents of the roster appeared, Zhou Zheng could no longer maintain his previous calmness, and even his breathing became faster.

Because this roster is full of landowners, squires and prominent families in eighteen counties and twenty-seven cities.

Moreover, it was more detailed and comprehensive than the one submitted by Gu Jiang before.

It even marked the relationship between the people on the list and the imperial court.

Among them, the one who appears most frequently is the third prince, Zhou Qiao!

ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Given Zhou Zheng's temperament, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air at this moment.

At this moment, Zhou Zheng had to re-examine the capabilities and skills of Jin Chan Auction!

With this roster, the entire Xiang County will have no secrets in front of Zhou Zheng!

It can be said that it will be beneficial to what he will do next, but not harmful at all.

“How do you want to work together?”

He closed the roster, narrowed his pupils, and spoke in a deep voice.

Seeing Zhou Zheng's reaction, Gong Tan and Zhou Ping were also a little surprised. Then they all looked at the roster in Zhou Zheng's hand. What was in it? How could Zhou Zheng react like this? !

"Miss Yunxi has an order to follow His Highness' arrangements in all matters."

"The information from the hundreds of strongholds in Xiang County will be used by His Highness."

The man knelt in front of Zhou Zheng, lowered his head and responded in a deep voice.

The eyes that were originally closed suddenly opened when they heard this.

Zhou Zheng stared at the man kneeling in front of him and remained silent for a long time.

"As for the rest, Xiaomin doesn't know anything about it."

Feeling the pressure coming from Zhou Zheng, the man responded quickly.

"What's your name?"

"Caomin, Ji Gu!"
