Shi Chui returned to the City Lord's Mansion and went directly to the study room of the City Lord's Mansion. When he arrived at the door of the study room, he didn't knock on the door. He just opened the door and walked in. After entering the house, they immediately sat opposite each other in the study room.
One of them clasped his fists and said, "Master, everything has been arranged."
There are no books, and it is Zhao Hai who is sitting in the study now, and Feng Lihua is standing next to Zhao Hai, looking like a guard.
Everything Shi Chui did before was all ordered by Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai also knew that the team sent by the Holy Academy this time would definitely not be that simple, so he rushed back to sit in the battle. Originally, he wanted to teach
Che Xiaoliang practiced it, but now he can only put it aside, but he still taught some of the most basic things to Che Xiaoliang. He just wanted Che Xiaoliang to try to communicate with plants.
Anyway, there are many plants in their base, so there is no need to go out, just let him try to communicate with the plants.
Zhao Hai looked at Shi Chui and said in a deep voice: "Okay, it's enough to make arrangements. Just be polite to them tomorrow and lead them to visit the ** city-state. Don't embarrass them too much. After all, we are now
I’m not ready to fight head-on with the Holy Court yet.”
Shi Chui nodded and said, "Yes, Master, I understand."
Zhao Hai nodded and said in a deep voice: "As for monitoring the people in the Holy Courtyard, we must not relax and we must not let them go out without permission. If you find any of them going out without permission, don't be polite. You can take action against them. If
Don't kill them, just hurt them."
Shi Chui responded. He understood what Zhao Hai meant. Zhao Hai turned to Feng Lihua and said, "Do you have any clues about the attack on Tang Fei? Who did it? Why do they seem to be more anxious than us?"
Feng Lihua said in a deep voice: "We don't have any clues yet. Yalong City is too complicated. Now Yalong City. On the surface, it seems that the pro-Shengyuan faction has the upper hand, because the Che family was destroyed.
It still has a great influence on the Anti-Holy Courtyard family, but the recent actions of the Holy House have made people feel a little resentful towards the Holy House, so the strength has been evened out, but those who attacked Tang Fei and the others do not seem to be those anti-Holy Courtyard ones.
There is absolutely no need for them to do this to the family of the hospital. It is really not worth the gain. As for whether it was done by outsiders, it is hard to say."
Zhao Hai nodded, then smiled slightly and said: "Interesting, so interesting, haha, it seems that the situation in the Holy Court is not good now, we have to find a way. When necessary, add fire to them.
.Okay, I’ll leave the things here to you. I’ll go back and rest first. If anything happens these days, come to me. If it’s nothing serious, you’ll be the one to handle it.”
Feng Lihua responded, and Zhao Hai stood up and walked out. After a while, he returned to the place where he lived. The place where he lived was also in the city lord's mansion. There was a separate small courtyard. This small courtyard was very
It is so inconspicuous that even people who come to the City Lord's Mansion would not have thought that this small courtyard would be Zhao Hai's residence.
After Zhao Hai returned to the small courtyard, he called Shi Zhui and the others, chatted with them for a while, and asked them about the situation here in the city-state before letting them go down.
After Shi Chui and the others went down, Zhao Hai opened the space and released all the small bugs in the space. Some of these bugs were flying in the sky and some walking on the ground. Now they were all sent to the Sleeping Dragon Hotel by Zhao Hai.
.
The greening in the Sleeping Dragon Hotel is quite good, but this is the spirit weapon world, and the plants in the spirit weapon world have no original soul power, so there is no way to help him monitor those people.
However, Zhao Hai could release all the bugs in his space and keep the entire Sleeping Dragon Hotel under surveillance, but people like Tang Shi and others would not be in the mood to pay attention to a few small bugs.
Early the next morning, Tang Shi and the others got up early and had breakfast. Shi Chui was right. All the supplies here were very complete and there was no shortage of anything, so it was no problem for them to prepare to eat and drink.
Tang Shi was eating continuously and thinking about things. At this time, Xiao Wu said: "Brother Tang, do you think the stone hammer will come today?"
Tang Shi put down the bowl, narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, he will definitely come. Now they don't want to break up with us. In that case, even if it is a formality, they will still have to leave. Just wait.
.”
Xiao Wu nodded. At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and then a voice said: "It turns out that everyone is having breakfast. You are neglecting it. You are neglecting it. It seems that you came down too early."
Tang Shi and the others looked up and saw that it was Shi Chui. Tang Shi really didn't expect that Shi Chui would come so early. He thought that Shi Chui would drag it with him. It would be good if he could arrive at noon. He looked at Shi Chui and sighed.
He said: "Sir, you came very early."
Shi Chui smiled slightly and said: "It's not too early. This is the busiest time in our city-state. Most people have already started working."
Tang Shi didn't say anything, but stood up, looked at Shi Chui and said, "Where are you going to take us to check today, sir?"
Shi Chui said with a smile: "Today, we will check in Spirit Snake City first, and then go to other cities. I wonder what Mr. Tang thinks?" Shi Chui wanted to see what Tang Shi would think. To be honest,
Tang Shi and the others didn't take any action last night, which was a bit beyond Shi Zhui's expectation. Now Shi Zui is a little unsure of what Tang Shi wants to do.
Tang Shi shook his head and said, "Let it be up to you, sir. I don't have any opinions." This answer was beyond Shi Chui's expectation. Shi Chui glanced at him, nodded and said, "That's the best, then I'll give it to you."
Just arrange it." After saying that, he turned around and left the room, went outside to arrange the manpower, and at the same time, he also asked someone to tell Zhao Hai the news.
After a while, Tang Shi and the others finished their breakfast. Shi Zhui led Tang Shi and the others out of the Sleeping Dragon Hotel and onto the street outside. This time, they walked forward without riding a horse or taking a car.
There were quite a few of them, including Shi Zui and others, there were more than a hundred people. It was really eye-catching that so many people were walking on the street, but people soon saw Shi Zui. Some people immediately
Say hello to Shi Chui. These people are ordinary people in the city. However, Shi Chui has been out on business more recently, so many people know him.
Shi Chui also smiled and greeted those people. He knew that Zhao Hai was very kind to ordinary people, and they naturally did not mean to look down on ordinary people at all, so they greeted those people.
But Tang Shi and the others are looking at that now, and at the same time they are also carefully looking at the situation here in Spirit Snake City. Tang Shi and the others have never been to ** City State before. But for the various rumors here in ** City State
However, they have heard a lot that before the city-states were unified, this place was a barbaric land with huge powers. According to legend, the people here lived in great hardship.
Later, the city-states of ** were unified, and then some people said that this place was a paradise. People lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the elderly were provided for, the children were educated, and the diseases were treated. It was a better place. But Tang Shi and others were not very happy.
believe.
They have never been to the ** Mountain Area before, but they have long heard about the situation here in the ** Mountain Area. There are countless forces and people's livelihood is declining. Can such a place be turned into a paradise? Then paradise is really meaningless.
It's everywhere.
But they soon discovered something was wrong. There were too many disabled people in this city-state, and Tang Shi and the others could see that these disabled people were all injured on the battlefield. In other words, they
He used to be a soldier and went to the battlefield. Finally, he became disabled and returned home.
In other city-states, soldiers like this who retired and returned home due to disability did not live a very good life. Many of them were even more injured and destitute. Even if they were seen on the street, they were usually beggars.
But it's different here in the city-state. Although these wounded soldiers are all disabled, they still have things to do. Although their clothes are not necessarily very flashy, they are also neat and in good spirits without any disabilities.
Tang Shi and the others were very surprised by the feeling of being shrunken.
Shi Chui ignored them, but took Tang Shi and the others to walk around the city, introducing them to the situation in the city from time to time. This felt like an investigation at all, but more like a visit.
Tang Shi and the others had long since given up hope of not reporting this investigation, so Shi Chui's current reaction was expected. They now relaxed and started visiting the city-state.
Spirit Snake City is a big city, but compared with big cities like Yalong City, it is still much inferior. To visit here, although one day is not enough for ten people, it can be seen almost enough. At noon,
Shi Chui also invited Tang Shi and the others to have dinner at a restaurant in the city. In the evening, he sent Tang Shi and the others back to the Sleeping Dragon Hotel.
Shi Zhui had already treated them to dinner outside before sending them back, so Tang Shi and the others had nothing to do when they returned to the Sleeping Dragon Hotel. However, Tang Shi and the others did not enter the room, but led everyone there.
Next to the artificial lake in the hotel, there is a small artificial lake in the hotel, but this artificial lake is living water. Next to the artificial lake, there are several small squares where people can move around.
There are many wooden chairs there and the scenery is very nice.
Tang Shi led everyone to the side of the artificial lake, turned around and glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about it. We all visited Spirit Snake City today. What do you think?"
Everyone was silent for a while, and no one said anything for a while. It was obvious that everyone was thinking about what they saw and heard in Spirit Snake City today, and they were organizing their words. After a while, Xiao Wu finally said: "Brother Tang, to be honest,
I was really surprised today. I never thought that this city-state would be like this. I can't see a beggar here, and the children are indeed in school, and the disabled people also have jobs.
, many old people can also do some things within their capabilities. Judging from the clothes and faces of the people here, their lives are also good. At least compared to other city-states, life here is indeed much better."
Tang Shi nodded and continued: "What else? What else do you think?"
One person said: "Brother Tang, I found that there are many shops in the city. It seems that they are not much different from those in Yalong City. But Yalong City is a big city, much bigger than Spirit Snake City. What can be done here in Spirit Snake City?"
It’s really not easy to get to this point.”
Tang Shi nodded without saying anything. Another person said: "Brother Tang, I paid attention to the soldiers in their city. There are almost no soldiers in their city. There are only soldiers at the city gate, but those
It seems that the soldiers are not responsible for collecting taxes, they are just there to watch the gates. Those soldiers cannot be said to be very strong, but their equipment is really good. The most important thing is that the training of those soldiers is really good. I have observed those soldiers
, they stood there for nearly half an hour without moving, which is very rare. I have never seen such soldiers in other cities."
Tang Shi nodded, then sighed and said: "What everyone said is very good. Now I can be sure that although the rumors about the city-state are somewhat exaggerated, they are not far from the real situation."
There seems to be no shortage of money here in the city-state. Otherwise, they would not arrange jobs for the disabled and the elderly. There are many shops in the city, which shows that the people here are very wealthy. Otherwise, if you open a business in many
The shops have to be closed if no one goes in to buy anything. There are also those soldiers. Their equipment is really good. Their weapons should all contain gold, and their training should also be very good. The military
The rules are also very strict. From this point, it can be seen that the combat effectiveness of those soldiers should not be weak. In addition to these, another point is the attitude of the people here towards the officials."
At this point, Tang Shi paused, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Shi Chui's status here in the city-state must be high, but for such a person, in the eyes of the common people, he has no respect at all.
It’s not scary. There are so many people greeting him and talking to him. This is really surprising. I wonder if you have noticed the situation in other city-states. The civilians in this city-state are seeing
When officials meet, they either appear to be very scared, or appear to be very hateful, or they may appear to be indifferent, or even a little numb, which is completely different from the attitude of the civilians here in the city-state towards officials."
After everyone thought about it, it was true as Tang Shi said, people in other city-states really had a bad attitude towards officials, with the exception of ** City-State.
Tang Shi said in a deep voice: "What does this mean? It means that the civilians are very supportive of these officials. It means that Zhao Hai has completely controlled the ** city-state. Anyone who wants to attack the ** city-state will not only
It is the enemy of Zhao Hai, but the enemy of the entire city-state, and everyone in the city-state. This is the most terrifying thing. If you want to deal with the city-state, it is not enough to deal with Zhao Hai alone.
Yes, you can’t even rely on those big families. Unless you are recognized by the common people here in the city-state, you will not be able to conquer the city-state!" (To be continued...)
