Chapter 1116: Grind a grind
Looking at the eyes of the Sand City Lord who were full of appreciation, Zhang Heng felt a little cold in his heart.
He lowered his head and said.
"But by the command of the city lord!"
Although it was his first contact with the Sand City Lord, listening to the rumors in the past, coupled with today's feelings, he was almost certain that this person had been extremely sensitive after experiencing the recent turmoil.
He didn't trust anyone at all.
So, this is another trap, he let Zhang Heng choose by himself, but in fact, does he have a choice?
Just imagine, one is the high-ranking city lord of Shacheng, and the other is just a little jailer, although he has made military achievements, but in front of the city lord, he is still like an ant.
The big man on top lets you choose, if you really choose it happily, then Zhang Heng believes that his fate will not be much better.
"In that case, then the lord of this city will make the decision for you. The city lord's eyes flashed, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more intense: "It stands to reason that the military merits you have accumulated now can be a deputy commander even if you can't reach the commander, but I don't plan to give you this position." β
"First, you are still young and have a poor reputation, and if you directly become a deputy commander, it will be difficult to convince the public. β
"Second, your cultivation is low, and it is undoubtedly very inappropriate to put you in a high position now, you can't control those soldiers at all!"
"Third, you swept the entire black prison, although most of them are felons and have a way to die, but outside, they also have a lot of relatives and friends...... They don't have the ability to take revenge on the lord of the city, but they may not dare to retaliate against you. β
The lord of the city paused, then looked at Goering.
Goering smiled and said.
"So, the city lord has already been ready to give you a three-in, three-out mansion on the ground!"
House?
So much military exploits, in exchange, is just an empty house on the ground?
Zhang Heng had fully understood what the city lord of Shacheng meant, and he sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he was stiff, and seemed to be a little disappointed, but he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and after hesitating for a while, he struggled to speak.
"Thank you for the reward!"
His demeanor was seen by the city lord.
It's just that he didn't say anything, but waved his hand and said.
"Go ahead. β
Zhang Heng bowed and retreated, and the moment he turned around, his face returned to calm.
He miscalculated.
The organs were exhausted, but the hearts of the people were wrong, and the city lord of Shacheng disrupted all his plans!
It seems that relying on military merit to get promoted, this road is no longer passable, and he can only leave for the time being and think about it in the long run.
And just after he left, the eyes of the city lord of Shacheng suddenly became gloomy, looking in the direction he was going, and let out a few sneers.
"It seems that he is very dissatisfied. β
Goering also put away the smiling tiger appearance, and there was a little playfulness in his eyes.
"Of course, he was just a small jailer before, thinking that he could soar into the sky, but the result was so different from what he expected that even if it were me, he would not be satisfied. The city lord said lightly, without the slightest surprise.
In the future, he will definitely understand the hard work of the city lord, and from a certain point of view, it is indeed for his good. Goering said.
"Hehe, you don't have to put gold on the face of this city lord, he must hate me very much at this moment. The city lord smiled instead, tapped his fingers on the chair, and said lightly: "However, I'm not afraid that he will hate me, a giant dragon, he won't care about the hatred of ants." β
"However, my subordinates are really curious, what will the city lord do for him in the future?" asked Goering.
"Arrange ......"
The city lord said slowly with a thoughtful look.
"After this meeting, I saw the ambition of this son, and also saw his intelligence, although he was still very immature, but a bit like me back then...... For such a person, it is necessary to sharpen his temperament, and I want to let him be suppressed and neglected when his ambition is at its highest...... Only then will he truly understand who is the one who can give him everything!"
Goering asked, somewhat surprised.
"But he's just a primordial ant, does he have this value?"
The city lord said lightly.
"Back then, when I was accepted by the old city lord, it was only the beginning of the realm, but unfortunately, at that time, he cultivated and doted on me in every way...... He didn't know that it was his cultivation and pampering that gave me a taste of power, and my ambition also grew at that moment...... I'm not going to do such a stupid thing like that idiot, even if he's a naΓ―ve state. β
Goering did not dare to take up this topic, his face was very serious, but in his heart, he felt very strange.
The old lord was kind to him, but he became stupid......
This kind of wolf-hearted words, even if the gods who have never been very affectionate listen to it, I am afraid that they will feel a little speechless.
Speechlessness is only a few, and more, it is still sympathy for Zhang Heng.
This poor boy finally found a chance to rise, but on the contrary, it was this suspicious, despicable and shameless guy who would do whatever it took to call the shots in Shacheng......
He is going to treat Zhang Heng as his past self and sharpen it well.
The so-called grinding may indeed harvest awe, because awe, so loyalty, but it is also possible to grind a promising person into waste......
But then, who cares, after all, it's just an ant.
"Now I don't believe in anyone. The city lord didn't care what his subordinates were thinking, he looked into the distance, and his eyes were cloudy.
"If this son is really loyal to me, he should hand over his detailed methods of interrogating felons as soon as they meet, but he never mentions it!"
"So, you can't blame me!"
"This son has risen by this means, and he has finally obtained his current status, and whoever he is, it is impossible to give up his eating stunt to others......" Goering slandered in his heart, but on the surface, he showed a look of approval.
"That's what the lord said!"
Half a day, in just half a day, Zhang Heng left the bottom under the envious eyes of all the jailers and lived on the ground openly.
The city lord was not ambiguous, and the mansion with three entrances and three exits had been arranged for him.
This mansion, which was originally a ruler's residence, was killed for participating in the rebellion.
There are still many traces of blood in the house.
More than a dozen maids are taking care of it.
These maids, who were also arranged by the city lord, looked respectful on the surface, but in fact, they were secretly monitoring Zhang Heng's every move.
Zhang Heng knew this, the city lord knew, and the others also knew.
Originally, many people thought that skinning would make him an upstart, but looking at it now, he only got a mansion, and no one with a brain would come to have anything to do with him.
For a while, Zhang Heng was cold.
Obviously, he won't care about that.
At this moment, Zhang Heng was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, his eyes full of thought.
"I only thought of gaining a higher status, controlling authority, and then using this authority to find the second yuan baby, as well as Yao Zihe, but I forgot one thing, people's hearts are sinister...... This Sand City Lord is actually going to sharpen my temperament!"
He had insight into people's hearts, and naturally saw the plan of the city lord of Shacheng.
This person is a traitor himself, so he is naturally wary of others, and the recent turmoil has made him like a frightened bird.
Therefore, he lost trust in everything.
And Zhang Heng happened to hit the muzzle of his gun.
After seeing Zhang Heng's value, the first thing he thought of was not how to cultivate, but doubt, although there was no reason for this doubt, it was enough for him to make a negative judgment.
A military feat, for a house, is his means.
It is conceivable that after a few years, the famous skinning envoy will be forgotten, and at that time, what ambition, what impulse, will naturally dissipate, and under the lonely conditions that no one cares about, the temperament will be smoothed out, and then it will be enough to reuse it with grace.
This is a conventional means of controlling people, and throughout the 5,000 years of Chinese history, many high-ranking people have acted like this.
But the problem is that Zhang Heng is not Tuosen!
He couldn't play a game with the Sand City Lord for a few years, he wanted to be an overnight success.
He came to the Protoss, not to integrate into the Protoss world, but to achieve his ulterior purpose!
So, how could he accept this kind of thing?
"Is Shacheng City mainly suppressing me? Since that's the case, then I can only find a way to gain status through another way!"
Zhang Heng's eyes flashed with a bright light, and a thought had already risen.
