Chapter 84: Elected City Lord
"Brother?" the paper kite tightened Ye Qiu's hand.
Ye Qiu touched the head of the paper kite, he glanced at Parxi, then looked at the Great Elder and said, "Marriage, Great Elder, you haven't told me about this, have you?"
"Eh, this ......" The Great Elder's hands trembled slightly, "My granddaughter is so beautiful and talented in martial arts, I think you are quite worthy." ”
"I refuse. Ye Qiu said.
"Well, don't mind, even if you marry Patsy, I don't mind if you take a concubine. The Great Elder said hurriedly.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in talking about marriage right now. Ye Qiu said and glanced at Persy, her figure and face were superior, but she still couldn't compare to Paris and Paper Kite.
The third elder quietly came over, "I'll just say, second brother, you mess around all day long!"
"That's right......" the Great Elder scratched his head, "It's okay, I can wait......"
"Stinky grandpa, have you asked my opinion all day long?" said Patsy angrily, "I don't agree with it either!"
"Actually," the Great Elder said with a hint of shame on his face, "I just said this casually when I was excited......
"Yes!" Peter jerked his right fist to his chest.
Peter realized his gaffe after feeling the burning gaze of the people around him, and he scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I mean, I changed my mind." Autumn ...... Okay......"
The Grand Elder coughed, "Alright, the council is over! ”
"Cut! Patsy pouted and walked away with Vale.
"Hey...... Patsy, wait for me. Peter chased after him.
At this time, the great elder, who was stubborn, also saw that Peter was interested in his granddaughter. "Peter," he pondered for a moment, "this boy is a little soft, and though he has a good character, is he not worthy of my granddaughter's bad temper?" The Great Elder's gaze was on Ye Qiu's body again.
The round belly got up, and said with a slight mockery: "Tut-tut, the human race can actually have the opportunity to participate in the selection of the city lord, this elf race is really no one!"
The rounder belly also echoed: "Tut-tut, I hope the new city lord will not be favored by the assassin who has not been arrested!"
Outside the city, people are voting with a bang.
The voting method is very simple, just inject soul power into the four hedrons specially made for the four candidates. This kind of special spar can only be entered once by the same person, and a horizontal line will appear on the surface after entering the soul power, and there can only be one trace of a trace of the same person's trace force, which can effectively eliminate cheating.
Behind Curry there are two rich people voting, while behind Ye Qiu there are the Great Elder, Eddie and Peter. The number of votes for the two is far behind the other two, but they are not much different.
There were not only voices in the crowd that agreed with Ye Qiu.
"Hey, who do you choose?"
"Let's pick Curry, that guy I think it's okay. ”
"But I think Ye Qiu is better. ”
"Hey, no. That guy has done a lot of good things, but he's a Terran. It always feels weird to pick him. ”
The two round bellies observed everything proudly from a distance, and they said, "I thought that Terran kid had a lot of prestige, but that's it!"
"As long as you move a little bit of your hands and feet, the position of the city lord is not from our side?"
Clearly, the duo overestimated themselves.
At this time, the old doctor who came to the front of the battle played a crucial role.
He stood tall and said in the brightest voice in front of everyone: "Everyone, I think Ye Qiu is a suitable candidate. If you agree with what I, an old man, said, please vote for Ye Qiu. ”
The old doctor's medical skills are superb, and his two younger brothers are also elders of Huayang City, so he has full prestige.
Doctors who treat diseases and save people always give people the sense of moral high ground.
"Did you hear it, even the old gentleman supported Ye Qiu. ”
"Hawkers, I usually take care of the old doctor, and the old doctor said so, so that Terran kid should be reliable. ”
"It makes sense, then I'll choose Ye Qiu too. ”
So many people who have been treated by old doctors have changed their minds in silence.
Then, something even more vigorous happened.
"Everyone, you have to support Brother Ye Qiu! he will definitely help us better. "The man who spoke was Pacier, who had taken most of the wolf meat with the poor people.
Under the roar of this group of people, Ye Qiu's votes directly doubled to twice as many as Curry.
At this time, the two round bellies were speechless.
A day later, the location of the new city lord was decided, it was Ye Qiu.
When Ye Qiu was competent, the atmosphere in the city was far more lively than the previous few times, and Guo Ting, the assassin, did not come as scheduled as the two round-bellied rich men said. ”
On his first day in office, the tax was changed from 30 percent to 15 percent, and people celebrated for three days and three nights.
Three days later, the Great Elder came to the City Lord's Mansion to see Ye Qiu.
"City lord, do you want to make the baptism a little grander? I will let my son come back and baptize you personally?"
Baptism is the blessing given to members of the Church, and it is an honor that people always come to the Holy See to baptize them when they hold important positions.
Grand Elder Gates has previously said that his son holds a prominent position in the Bathing Wind Temple, one of the four temples known as the Qingluo Holy See.
"No need. Ye Qiu replied.
"But this church in Huayang City is a bit unimpressive. The Great Elder hesitated.
"I'd like to go to the Bathing Wind Temple myself. ”
"Well, I agree. The Great Elder smiled, "It's worthy of the City Lord's approach. ”
Great Elder Gates kept secretly rejoicing in his heart, this Ye Qiu is a treasure! In the past few days alone, some people have been exaggerating that the elders have made great contributions to Huayang City in choosing the city lord, and listening to the praise of others. If Ye Qiu is more interested in the future, his own group will also be stained.
Ye Qiu waved his hand and said, "Someone is coming, pass on Commander Joey and Deputy Commander Luke." ”
Well, it doesn't feel bad to command people.
"City Lord. The two saluted.
"I'm going to go out, and the security of Huayang City will be handed over to you. Ye Qiu said as he threw a piece of finely carved red jade to Luke.
Luke exclaimed, "I'll go, this is the city lord's order." What are you doing here?"
"Nothing, lend it to you for a few days. ”
"Huh?"
"Just kidding. Ye Qiu patted him on the shoulder and said, "I have something for the two of you to do." ”
Then, Ye Qiu said solemnly: "Joey, Luke." ”
"In. ”
"During my absence, Huayang City will ask you two, when you see this red jade, you will see me, and no one is allowed to disobey. ”
"Yes. ”
