Chapter 252: Capture the City
When the man and woman in the armor heard these words, their eyes were fixed on Fang Niannian.
"What a joke? The deeds in this city have been sold long ago. I want to use some of the documents to come here to cheat. You really came to the wrong place!" The woman holding the helmet said coldly, and her words were already filled with murderous aura.
"We are from the imperial capital." Zhu Minglang walked over, looked at the outfits of the men and women, and the group of armored soldiers behind him, and then said, "This house was yours before, are you residents of Runyu City?"
The man in the armor was obviously more kind, so he walked up and explained: "Runyu City was built by my father. At that time, he led a powerful army to eradicate a group of the dragons entrenched here, and built the first guardhouse in the brown land Runyu City. The battle caused a sensation in the ten countries."
"I heard that the original city builder was a member of the Hu clan. Are you a member of the Hu clan?" Haoye asked.
When he was in several nearby villages and towns and inns, Haoye asked about some things about it.
"Yes, this is my sister Hu Bailing, and Hu Chongming below. Our two brothers and sisters were originally the heirs of Runyu City, but for various reasons, our fathers had to sell Runyu City to Shenfan Academy. However, in theory, the land deed of Runyu City should be in the hands of Shenfan Academy. Why is it in your hands? If you are not a liar, can you show us the city deed book, which has the signature of my father on it?" The man who claimed to be Hu Chongming was quite polite and came up to ask politely.
Since Fang Niannian has already talked about the Constitution Book, Zhu Minglang has nothing to hide. Anyway, the Constitution Book is actually not valuable at all. Every force in this place is like a jackal, tiger and leopard, who would care about that document!
Zhu Minglang took out the covenant letter from Runyucheng.
According to the statement of the Hu man, it should be that Shenfan Academy put this contract in the government city as a resource for the increase in disciples of major forces at that time.
The gift was presented, and the Hu brothers and sisters immediately came up to see it. After reading it, both of them changed their expressions!
The brother and sister looked at each other, and it took Hu Bailing to look at Zhu Minglang and others for a long time, and said in surprise: "You are really the city lords assigned by you?"
"This Runyu City Deed has also been sealed by the imperial seal." A man with an eight-beard said in surprise. He was not wearing armor for this group of people, and he should be a military advisor in his dress.
"Are you sent by the dynasty?" Hu Chongming also saw a lot of seals on the land deed.
This title deed is absolutely true, with their father's signature and the thumbprints of the brother and sister!
But they never expected that this document would be transferred to the imperial capital.
"You can understand this too." Zhu Minglang said.
"What's wrong, I've told you all, it's you who should get out." Fang Niannian was unreasonable and refused to forgive him.
Hu Bailing and Hu Chongming both showed embarrassment.
How long has it been since Runyu City been truly in charge? Many of the lands in the city were occupied by the great powers. As their own territory, they were indeed the original owners of this house. However, after several war sweeps, the final belonging of Runyu City is naturally the winner and the one who owns the covenant.
"There is a large dilapidated house next to this courtyard. You can live in it after cleaning it up. If you don't mind, just live there." Zhu Minglang said.
"Brother, the Creed Book is no longer of great use now, and this place is far more dangerous than you imagined. To place appoint a city lord here, it is undoubtedly to send yourself to the guillotine, let alone you are so few people..." Hu Chongming was a little polite.
"Say something straight," Zhu Minglang said.
"It's better for brother to sell this contract to me. At that time, my fathers in the clan were indeed confused and sold this city, but who would have thought that they were trampled on by various countries and turned into this bad and messy appearance. We brothers and sisters have been recruiting soldiers for many years, hoping to regain control of Runyu City. If we could sell this document to us, our Hu family would take over it rightfully, which would be more helpful for the future reconstruction of people's livelihood." Hu Chongming came forward and said sincerely to Zhu Minglang.
"You are planning to seize the city? Just you guys?" Fang Niannian looked at it, and there were only one or two hundred armored soldiers following behind him!
How can one or two hundred people seize the city?
I just walked over the road of Runyu City. There were many forces of different outfits stationed on both sides of the street, with a scale of thousands. If I hadn't known about the chaotic battlefield here in advance, Fang Niannian would have thought he had entered a military camp city!
"Although we don't have many people, all of them are elites. Moreover, even if we want to take down Runyu City, we need to proceed step by step. We first occupy a place in this city and then slowly expel those inequality forces. We have formulated a relatively long-term plan. Now we have just taken the first step." Hu Chongming said.
"Where is the city lord's seal, how do you plan to take it back?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"Of course, I have taken the position of city lord. If I don't change my lord within a month, I can just ask Shenfan Academy for it. Shenfan Academy is not those unjust warlords, I believe they will give it back to us." Hu Chongming said seriously.
Zhu Minglang glanced at Haoye.
Haoye looked confused, not knowing what the look of uncle's eyes meant.
Zhu Minglang rolled his eyes. Haoye was too dull!
His eyes turned to Nan Yuso. Sure enough, the sister-in-law of the Dragon Shepherd Master Bing Xue was smart and he understood Zhu Minglang's meaning at once. She blinked her big eyes and whispered: "It is better to support one person as the city lord."
Governance and management are indeed a very troublesome thing, especially since they have not settled down here.
Instead of attacking the city, taking the city lord's seal and slapping it, it is indeed better to choose someone to be the one, and they secretly assisted it easily.
"We don't sell the Contract Book, but we can exchange it for the Seal of the City Lord." Zhu Minglang said.
"Brother, the city lord's seal is actually a symbol, an expensive collection. What's the use of it?"
"We are naturally useful." Zhu Minglang said.
"But if you want to take over Runyu City, it will take at least one year or three years. Brother Taiwan might as well give us the contract letter first. Our Hu family will also expand it under the banner of rebuilding Runyu City, which may be faster." Hu Chongming said.
"It's okay, we will help you, it won't take that long." Zhu Minglang said.
"Ah?? You guys are only one..." Hu Chongming counted on the spot, and in a short while, he finished counting, and then said, "You are only five."
"Seven!" Fang Niannian corrected her angrily.
"I am Dragon Shepherd Master, they are members of my Dragon Shepherd Master team." Zhu Minglang smiled.
"That's also a very shabby Dragon Shepherd Team..." Hu Bailing said angrily.
