Ye Chu smiled slightly and said: "Thank you so much for your concern, Master Zhang. I am entrusted with the task of being a loyal person. How dare I violate the orders given by Gu Holy Land for personal matters, let alone play with the lives of thousands of people."
When the head of the Zhang family heard Ye Chu's words, a bright smile appeared on his face. What they did this time might make Ye Chu feel dissatisfied, but Ye Chu would not fall out with them because of this matter. After all, during this period, Ye Chu was still
They need to share the pressure together, which at least shows that Ye Chu is still someone who has the overall situation in mind.
The two chatted for a while and once again talked about the Zhang Chu brothers and sisters. The head of the Zhang family said: "Quanzi is truly lucky to be able to meet such an expert as the master. I, the city lord, would like to thank Master Ye on his behalf."
Hearing this, Ye Chu said: "Master Zhang, you are so polite. I and Brother Zhang hit it off immediately. Moreover, this time Brother Zhang risked his life for the people of Xingyue City. As a friend, how can we not help him? Therefore, Master Zhang does not have to worry about trivial matters."
The head of the Zhang family is really happy that the Zhang Chu brothers and sisters can make friends like Ye Chu. Although he has never thought of marrying Ye Chu, after all, although Ye Chu has great potential, he has offended many enemies, not to mention that there are still many people behind him.
Zixia Holy Land, but being able to bring such an alchemist with great potential under his command would be beneficial to their family.
As for Du Qilian's matter, he hasn't taken it to heart yet. Although Ye Chu's wanton killing of the city lord's mansion violated the bottom line of the chamber of commerce, compared with the benefits brought by Ye Chu, Du Qilian and the others don't care at all. The only thing that makes him worry is
After Du Ziteng's death, Ye Chu would definitely suffer crazy revenge from the Du family.
The two parties pondered for a moment and said, "Master Ye, we also want to ask the master to help refine some elixirs. What does the master want?"
Ye Chu felt a little surprised when he heard the words of the head of the Zhang family. Some time ago, he had refined a large amount of elixirs for the Zhang family. If nothing happened, it would be enough for them to use for half a year. How come they were all used up in less than half a month?
Ye Chu probed: "Master Zhang, but the suppression of rebellions in various places is not going well?"
The head of the Zhang family sighed and said: "The suppression of the rebellion went smoothly, but the casualties were also huge, so those families need a batch of elixirs to retrain their troops, and at the same time to compensate those who died."
Ye Chu frowned when he heard this. The manpower recruited by the City Lord's Mansion for the first time was not weak. Logically speaking, there should not be such heavy casualties. Could it be that the problem arises with those aristocratic families?
Speaking of the aristocratic family, Ye Chu suddenly became furious, and the suppression of the rebellion started quite smoothly. If it continues to develop, it won't be long before the guards of the City Lord's Mansion can completely drive out the rebellion, but by then the City Lord's Mansion will be able to fully control Xingyue City.
However, those aristocratic families were not willing to give up their interests, so they secretly led the rebels to attack those villages and towns.
The reason why the City Lord's Mansion is able to control Xingyue City is to bypass those aristocratic families and directly control those villages and towns. In this way, the aristocratic family's influence cannot leave Xingyue City, which is equivalent to being ignored by the City Lord's Mansion. In order to prevent themselves from being destroyed, the aristocratic family will naturally resist. So they
He thought of a plan to wipe out the whole family and use those rebellions to severely damage the towns below, thus cutting off the foundation of the city lord's palace.
In less than half a month, half of the towns were attacked by the rebels. Although no town was really captured, the large number of casualties made the people below panic. If someone guides them, the city lord will
All the previous efforts of the government were in vain. Those aristocratic families still want to get benefits from him at this time, which is really ignorant.
Ye Chu can understand that the aristocratic family wants to use the rebellion to expand its influence, but the city below has a population of tens or millions. If something unexpected happens, countless innocent creatures will be buried with it. But Ye Chu doesn't care about the aristocratic family's treatment like this.
Those ordinary people still felt uncomfortable. After all, how could the subordinates under his jurisdiction allow people to destroy it at will.
So he asked: "I wonder how the towns below are doing now? How are the casualties?"
The head of the Zhang family said: "There will be no danger for the time being as there are aristocratic families in various towns and cities. However, some small towns have been evacuated in advance and there have been no casualties. This is of course thanks to the help of those aristocratic families."
Ye Chu couldn't help but sneer when he heard the words of the head of the Zhang family. Those aristocratic families really had a good plan. On the surface, they did this to help the towns below, but after the rebellion ended, the opportunities in some places below became blank. Instead,
I'm afraid there are many new large cities being built, and it's still unclear where they will be the center of gravity of Xingyue County.
"Are you planning to give up on Qingyue City?" Ye Chu looked at Zhang Family Master with a playful look on his face.
The head of the Zhang family was forced to do this because he was ordered by the major families to test Ye Chu. After this period of confrontation, he knew that this time their families had really fallen into the eyes of the three holy places.
If no action is taken at this time, their families will gradually disappear.
Forced by the general situation, they will make this plan to destroy everything. However, after this time, the situation in the Chaos Land will become clearer, the conflict between the Chamber of Commerce and the Holy Land will further intensify, and various cities will be controlled by those aristocratic families.
, becoming the tail wing of the five major chambers of commerce, which will be a serious threat to the three holy places.
Ye Chu also understood another meaning from it. Zixia Holy Land's abandonment of Xingyue City this time was a warning to those aristocratic families. This time the matter ends here. If those aristocratic families don't stop, both parties will die.
Ye Chu is not interested in the fight between the Three Holy Lands and those aristocratic families. After all, the disguised aristocratic families are no longer the persimmons that can be manipulated at will. As long as they don't cause trouble for him, Ye Chu is also happy for them to bite dogs.
So Ye Chu took the medicinal materials sent by the Zhang family and left. After returning to the city lord's mansion, Ye Chu thanked the guests behind closed doors and concentrated on refining the elixir.
Those aristocratic families had been worried about this matter for a long time, but after a few days they were relieved when they saw that there was no change in the city lord's mansion.
That day, Ye Chu was refining elixirs. Suddenly there was a hurried knock on the door. Ye Chu looked at the panicked guard and said, "What happened in Xingyue City? Why are you so panicked?"
At this time, the city lord also walked in, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "Master Ye, Xingyue City is besieged by rebellion."
"Hmm, huh?" Ye Chu suddenly raised his head and looked at City Master Yi, hoping that he could give a reasonable explanation.
City Lord Yi showed a wry smile and said: "Master Ye, you heard it right. Now those rebellions have heavily besieged Xingyue City. Xingyue City is in danger, so I will pay a visit in person and invite Master to discuss the matter in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion.
