Chapter 1825: The City Chief Treats Guests (3 More)
In the hotel, Du Qingchen and Nangong Wan'er never went out.
Until the afternoon, the two of them went for a walk on the street. They brought 500 million spiritual stones with them. Du Qingchen was quite wealthy.
In the past few days since they came to Hancheng, they have not gone out for a good shopping trip.
But for one afternoon, neither of them had much feelings.
There is really not much difference between here and the secular world.
Most of the time, they are reminiscing.
Because many years ago, they often went shopping together. After so many years, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of memories and touches.
It's just that they will never bring it up, and each other knows what the other is thinking.
This is tacit understanding.
Du Qingchen originally planned to buy a house to live in, but he went to several real estate trading centers and couldn't find a suitable one.
They need a quiet environment, but these houses are almost always in downtown areas, which is somewhat different from the secular world.
This matter was not urgent. In the evening, the two of them were finally ready to go back to the hotel. At this time, Bai Ruoshui called and said that something important was waiting in the hotel lobby.
The two took a taxi back to the hotel, and sure enough, Bai Ruoshui was already sitting there in the lobby.
But beside her, Shang Qi was sitting.
Du Qingchen was a little curious and asked: "You guys came together?"
"No, I'll come first. Because I don't know how to contact you, I've been waiting here." Shang Qi was very friendly to the two of them.
"Oh, something happened?" Du Qingchen asked again.
Shang Qi lowered his voice and said: "The Lord Mayor wants to treat you two to a meal tonight. It's in this hotel. The private room has been reserved. He will be there soon. How about we go to the private room and talk slowly?"
Lord Mayor?
Du Qingchen and Nangong Wan'er looked at each other and smiled.
It seems that destroying the Xia family is the right thing to do, and it has attracted the attention of the city leader. This shows that their plan is still very successful and is being realized step by step.
"Okay, let's go to the box."
The four of them came to the box and sat down.
Soon, the city chief, Jia Lingfeng, arrived. This time, he did not bring his bodyguard, but came alone.
After sitting down, he glanced at Du Qingchen and Nangong Wan'er and asked, "Are you Du Qingchen and Nangong Wan'er?"
"Exactly." Du Qingchen replied with a smile.
"Okay, not bad. A hero comes from a boy, which is good."
These words made the two of them a little confused.
It was obvious that the mayor looked at them with somewhat complicated eyes.
The food and wine arrived quickly, and everyone ate in silence and chatted for a while.
After a while, Jia Lingfeng asked Bai Ruoshui: "Ruoshui, I heard that you got 70% of the Xia family's property?"
Bai Ruoshui said respectfully: "Yes, Uncle Jia, but Cheng Hua found me today. At first he asked me to give these properties to the Cheng family, and later he said that he wanted to buy them at the original price. I refused. Maybe next time
There is some trouble."
The relationship between the two was so close, which surprised Shang Qi.
"Your father and I have a relationship, so naturally I won't ignore you. Don't worry, I've written this down. Over the years, the Cheng family has paid less and less attention to our city government. But now,
With these two helping you, you don’t have to be afraid, I will come forward when necessary."
Jia Lingfeng actually made such a direct promise.
Shang Qi secretly felt lucky to be so close to Bai Ruoshui, otherwise, he might have been fucked without even knowing how.
He never thought that Bai Ruoshui and Jia Lingfeng would have such a deep friendship. Their relationship was quite extraordinary.
But he is also very happy now, because when Jia Lingfeng said such things in front of him, he obviously regarded him as one of his own.
He was a little excited to become the confidant of Jia Lingfeng, the city leader.
The functions of Hancheng's city government and the secular world are the same, but it does not control too many things like the outside. There are relevant department associations below to handle specific matters. They are more responsible for governing and maintaining the city on behalf of the city lord's government.
The stability of the city.
But the City Lord's Mansion is definitely the most powerful existence in Hancheng. But strangely, the City Lord's Mansion also doesn't interfere much with people's lives. This is different from the secular world.
The City Lord's Mansion also gives people a mysterious feeling. For so many years, there has been no City Lord in the City Lord's Mansion. All matters are decided and handled by a Deputy City Lord of the City Lord's Mansion. However, most people have no chance to see this Deputy City Lord.
, also very mysterious.
After Jia Lingfeng said this, he also revealed another piece of information.
The city government and the Cheng family don't seem to be so friendly.
The so-called Cheng family is flourishing in Dongshi, but it's just the outside world's talk. If the city government can't tolerate you, it's useless to say anything.
In Hancheng, no matter how big a family is, it cannot compete with the city lord's mansion.
What's more, the Cheng family can be considered the overlord in the East City. Compared with the other three cities, the Cheng family is not particularly impressive.
After eating for a while, everyone was basically done eating. Jia Lingfeng said to Shang Qi and Bai Ruoshui: "Okay, you all go downstairs. I want to talk to Mr. Du and Miss Nangong alone."
The two were startled for a moment, then left obediently.
There are only three people in the private room, and there will be no one eavesdropping outside. The mayor is here, so how can anyone from the hotel disturb them.
Du Qingchen didn't say anything, just looked at Jia Lingfeng with a smile.
Jia Lingfeng looked at Du Qingchen with a strange expression and said: "Mr. Du, I really didn't expect that you would choose to come to Dongshi. In the entire Hancheng, Dongshi is the most backward and the weakest city."
"It sounds like the city chief still knows about me?" Du Qingchen asked with a smile.
He could tell that Jia Lingfeng did not talk to Nangong Wan'er, but directly talked to him, which was obviously not normal.
Jia Lingfeng nodded and said, "I don't want to get to know you, even if I don't want to. Kunlun from the secret realm took the lead, and almost most of the sects issued a death order. To be honest, the benefits are really great, and I couldn't help but feel excited after hearing it."
Du Qingchen's brows wrinkled.
Nangong Wan'er's aura suddenly rose.
She is ready to fight.
"Nangong Wan'er, I know that you are a saint from Saintess Peak and an amazing genius. However, in Hancheng, you can't beat me yet."
Jia Lingfeng said calmly.
Du Qingchen patted Nangong Wan'er's hand.
Nangong Wan'er's breath slowly calmed down, but she still spoke domineeringly: "If anyone wants to hurt him, he must step over my body first, no matter who it is! If I don't die, there is no way to hurt him!"
"I have no ill intentions towards you. The secret realm is the secret realm, and Hancheng is Hancheng!"
Jia Lingfeng continued: "Our city government will only listen to the city lord's palace, and we also need to maintain the majesty of our city lord's palace. This is why I came to you today."
There is something in his words.
Du Qingchen quickly understood the key points, his eyes lit up, and he said: "I roughly understand what the mayor means. Just tell us what you want us to do."
