Chapter 286: The inside should be combined with the outside
Zhong Ji and his men were taken to prison, and no one was interrogated. Until dark and the crowd dispersed, the lord of Lu Tian City realized that the situation was not good and sent someone to check the progress of the recruitment work. Only then did he realize that Zhong Ji's people were all detained by the Flame Mercenary Group because they were disturbing public order and making bad words in the city.
"Meteor knows whether he knows that the plan is mine."
The Lord of Lutian City asked angrily.
He originally recommended Meteor to become the new city lord under Tianbao County. He didn't really believe Meteor would be so disrespectful to him.
The people under his command explained: "I heard from the people of the four major families that Zhong Ji was very arrogant at that time, despised the Flame Mercenary Group and did not say his identity. He was arrogant and domineering. He was then taken down by the Flame people... Although he repeatedly revealed his identity, no one paid attention to it."
Bang!
The Lord of Lutian City slapped a huge rock on the side of the road, gritting his teeth:
"This idiot!"
The people around the city lord of Lutian City obviously did not like Zhong Ji very much, so they took the wrong steps and said, "And my subordinates heard that the recruitment mission had been completed at that time. Zhong Ji brought five thousand refugees to the city, and the streets were crowded with people. As long as Zhong Ji said a good word or reported his identity, he would probably not end up in such a land."
"...He thinks Sifang City is our Lutian City? Everyone recognizes him, everyone buys him, lets him act as a hero? I can't tell you clearly!" The city lord of Lutian City was furious and asked the guard: "Didn't you see a meteor after you enter the city?"
"No."
The guard reported truthfully, "The meteor seemed to have left Sifang City a few days ago. It may have gone to the canyon to rush to the fortress, or entered the Sunset Mountains to practice. Now Sifang City is under his first confidant Su Peng."
“…”
The Lord of the Lutian City looked even more ugly.
Both the city lord's confidant, the Sifang City under Su Peng's ruler is booming, but his own city of Rutian has now become a terrifying death city because of his plans.
He had long regretted it.
If I had not escaped and left Lutian City, how could I end up in an embarrassing situation now?
Now that the plan is still impossible to handle this little thing, he was detained by the confidant of the Sifang City Lord for a whole day. It's really...
"Take me my message right away and find Su Peng and let him release him." The Lord of Lutian City really wanted to hang up the plan, but now it is the time to use people. Even if you show your face, you must rescue the more than 20 people.
"yes."
The guards took the order to go to Sifang City again.
But it was already night, and even if the guards arrived outside the Sifang City, they could not enter the city even if they shouted.
The people of the flames only use the phrase "special period" and cannot let people or suspicious people into the city, so the guards can only endure the freezing until dawn.
After finally waiting for the city gate to open during the day and the guards found Su Peng, they explained the whole story clearly. Su Peng was prepared:
"In fact, there is a reason to detain them."
"I hope to hear the details."
Su Peng said in a bad tone:
"Do you know that in order to save these people and resettle these refugees, our Sifang City was under a lot of pressure and paid a considerable price to survive this plague outbreak."
“Yes, yes, yes.”
"It doesn't matter if you want to rebuild Lutian City, but you can't come to Sifang City to recruit people, and all the people are young and middle-aged. By then, this group of people will die from the plague. Who will support their elderly and children? Is our Sifang City? I'm afraid this is inappropriate."
Su Peng sneered.
The guard didn't expect that Su Peng had already known the situation in Lutian City. He smiled awkwardly and asked, "That's what Lord Su means, it's..."
"We Sifang City can recruit people for you and rescue the siege for Lutian City, but you must pay a deposit of one hundred gold."
"this……"
"It's just a few hundred thousand gold, what's there to hesitate? Our leader took care of these more than 200,000 refugees, and gave up tens of millions of gold in the real estate deed alone. Why, the Lord of Your House can't even do this?"
"This, I need to go back and ask the city lord for instructions."
"besides!"
"besides?"
"Lu Tian City is very active, and this kind of thing can't be done well in a while. Calculated based on the remuneration of 20 gold per day, it will take at least 30 days to complete it. When you see the city lord of Lu Tian City, you can settle the money together."
"ah?"
The guards knew that they would give their plans and that they would kill all refugees at that time, so the money would definitely not be paid.
But Su Peng didn't give him a chance to argue:
"This is a must. After all, the danger of transporting plague corpses is too high. You can just use the pension or pay the remuneration in advance, and you must pay it together. In fact, there are not many people in total. Five thousand people, only 3.5 million gold. For the lord of the city of Lutian City, it is a drop in the bucket."
"But……"
"No, but we are the people of the Fiery Flames who will not swallow this money. We will publicly disclose it and give it to everyone without any fault!"
Su Peng's words made the guard irrefutable.
One by one.
The lord of Lutian City did not see any plan, but instead brought a debt bill to collect debts, and he was angry.
"A small half-step chakra realm under the command of Meteor, he dared to speak out with the city lord, Lion, and ask for a reward of twenty gold per day?!"
"Report to the city lord, this price is a plan to make promises to all refugees in the city..."
The Lord of the City of Lutian City was almost angry to death after hearing this:
The price is almost the same as mercenaries!
Which refugee is worth this price?
But he finally realized that Sifangcheng guessed the next method of Lutian City, and asked for 3.5 million gold in advance. In this way, there was no need for Lutian City to kill and silence after finishing the matter.
"There are many capable people in Sifang City, but they actually saw through the plan."
The Lord of the City of Lutian City gritted his teeth:
"But...I don't care whether you see through the plan or want to get some money out of it, I won't let you go about this matter."
"That adult..."
"Now, everything is based on the reconstruction of Lutian City. You can take the money over and get the people for me! I will calculate this account later."
"yes."
The Lord of Lutian City let go and gritted his teeth and squeezed out three.5 million gold.
But what the Lord of Lutian City never expected was that things still had twists and turns...
Although Zhong Ji and others were successfully released;
Five thousand young and middle-aged people were also successfully recruited;
But when the plan and the horses were out of the city, the team passed by the vicinity of Yuelin, a group of about a hundred mercenaries rushed out!
Chapter completed!
