Hu Yanlie's face changed suddenly, but he was not too surprised, he took someone to investigate the place where Song Xiaodong came, and there were people from the Cao family, how could Cao Hong not know about this matter?

"Old Cao, yes, he is from the outside world, but I have already explored the way to come, and it is impossible for them to go out again, we are just employing people, so I naturally want to take him for my own use. ”

Cao Hong sneered and said, "It's a good one to take for your own use!" Our city has always been united, and as soon as he came, he directly beat my grandson to a serious injury, wasted his kung fu, and made our city lose a capable general, Huyan City Lord, this person, you recruited really well?"

Hu Yanlie took a breath, his face sank, and said: "Cao Lao, as the city lord, I put our city first, for the people in our city, this matter is also for a reason, and Mr. Song is not to blame, so I hope that Cao Lao can turn big things into small things and small things into nothing, for the sake of my face, I will expose it." ”

"Huyan City Lord, my grandson has been abolished, just forget about it?"

Hu Yanlie's face was even worse, and he said in a deep voice: "Old Cao, Mr. Song was recruited by me, and I can't shirk this responsibility, so Mr. Song's fault, I fought for him, if Cao Lao has to ask for an explanation, then he can come at me Hu Yanlie!"

Cao Hong stared at Hu Yanlie and said slowly, "Is the city lord trying to use his identity to suppress me?"

Hu Yanlie said: "Don't dare, but Mr. Song has an important role for our entire city, he hurt your Cao family, but there are more people who need him." ”

Cao Hong took a deep breath and said, "Okay, since the city lord of Huyan has to stand up for him, then my Cao family respects you as the city lord, and you can not have him, but this compensation must be indispensable." ”

Hu Yanlie also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Thank you Cao Lao for giving me face, but he just arrived here and has no property, so I will compensate the Cao family for Mr. Song, Cao Lao, please speak." ”

"A thousand pounds of bacon. Cao Lao directly opened a number.

Hu Yanlie said happily: "No problem, this time I will send people to the Cao family's mansion." ”

Cao Lao nodded and said, "There are also two maidservants, Hua Rui and Hua Qing." ”

Cao Bing immediately shouted at this time: "The two of them alone can't do it, I still want his wife." ”

After Cao Bing said this, he felt the murderous aura surging over Song Xiaodong's body, but he was not afraid at all, gritted his teeth and said: "Lao Tzu wants your wife, Lao Tzu wants to kill her, and then send her body back to you." ”

Song Xiaodong took a step forward, and the two middle-aged people brought by the Cao family also suddenly surged with a strong fighting spirit, staring at Song Xiaodong with their eyes, as long as Song Xiaodong took another step forward, they would definitely kill Song Xiaodong mercilessly.

Hu Yanlie frowned, stretched out his arm to stop Song Xiaodong, looked at Cao Hong, and said, "This is a bit too much, right?"

Cao Hong also waved his hand, even if the woman here has no status, but it can't be said that he robbed the other party's wife, if it was an ordinary person, then Cao Bing would have asked for it, but Song Xiaodong had Hu Yanlie come out after all, and making such a request would not give Hu Yanlie face at all, and said: "His wife, we don't want it, but the two maids must." ”

Hu Yanlie nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send a thousand catties of bacon and two maidservants to your house later." ”

put forward such a condition, Hu Yanlie agreed to it all, Cao Hong can't put forward any more conditions, otherwise it will be too bad to give Hu Yanlie, the city lord, face, even if the Cao family is the first family in this city, but Hu Yanlie's prestige is very high in this city, how can their Cao family not tear their faces with Hu Yanlie.

Cao Bing was still a little unwilling, but since his grandfather had already agreed, he couldn't mention it anymore, but his eyes were staring at Song Xiaodong, thinking in his heart, no matter what, he had to get Song Xiaodong's wife to get his hands on it, otherwise how could he solve this hatred in his heart.

"In that case, we are also giving face to the city lord, so this matter is over. Cao Hong waved his hand and prepared to leave.

Song Xiaodong said in a deep voice: "Wait!"

Hu Yanlie said, "What else does Mr. Song have to say?"

Song Xiaodong said in a deep voice: "Hua Rui and Hua Qing can't be given to them. ”

Hu Yanlie's face changed, but Cao Hong's face sank, and said, "Huyan City Lord, it seems that he doesn't even give you face." ”

Hu Yanlie looked at Song Xiaodong and said, "Mr. Song, it's just two handmaidens, I'll send you two more when I go back." ”

Song Xiaodong shook his head and said, "City Lord, since you gave Hua Rui and Hua Qing to me, then they are now my people, right?"

Hu Yanlie nodded and said, "Yes, since I gave it to you, then they are your people, and there is no problem with what you do." ”

Song Xiaodong said: "In this case, I am his master, their life and death are decided by me, whether they send them away or not, that is also up to me, so I can't agree to this condition, I will never transfer my people to others." ”

Hu Yanlie frowned, lowered his voice and said: "Mr. Song, for the sake of the two maidservants, there is no need to be like the Cao family, I will send you four more when I go back, it will definitely not be worse than these two." ”

Song Xiaodong said resolutely: "City Lord, this is a matter of principle, my principle of being a man is like this, don't say that this matter is because of the Cao family, even if it is because of me, then I will not hand over my woman." ”

"You're going to make it hard for me. Hu Yanlie's brows were tightly locked, Song Xiaodong's attitude suddenly made it difficult to solve things that were originally solved smoothly.

Although Song Xiaodong and Hu Yanlie were not loud on the side, Cao Hong could also hear them, Cao Hong sneered at this time, and said: "Huyan City Lord, he doesn't even give you face, do you still want to stand up for him?"

Cao Bing was quite happy at this time, and said in a mocking tone: "Huyan City Lord, you take a fancy to him, but he doesn't take you seriously, the city lord, the person you gave him, now transfer it to me, he is not happy, such a person, after you use it, can you listen to you in the future?"

Song Xiaodong looked at Hu Yanlie, the expression on his face was calm like waves, and he was also waiting for Hu Yanlie to make this decision.

From Hu Yanlie's final decision, Song Xiaodong can finally see what kind of status Hu Yanlie can achieve in this city, and he can also see an attitude towards him and whether he really values him so much.

Chapter 1389: My people, I call the shots

Hu Yanlie is indeed very entangled, in his conversation with Song Xiaodong, he can feel Song Xiaodong's insight, and Song Xiaodong's kung fu is very strong, and it is definitely a big help for him to envelop him.

But the Cao family's status and power in this city are great, and if they help Song Xiaodong, they will inevitably offend the Cao family, and then the Cao family may disobey the yang and yin and stumble on themselves everywhere, so it is not so easy for him, the city lord, to be the lord of the city.

Although the city lord is the highest status person in the city, he also wants the people in the city to give face, especially the most important families in the city, they have too many resources, and even if they join forces, he can't be the city lord.

Looking at Song Xiaodong and then at the Cao family, Hu Yanlie took a deep breath and said, "Old Cao, you think this is good, I'll change two handmaidens for you, no, I'll add two more and give you four handmaidens." ”

Cao Bing immediately said: "No, I'll let those two maidservants, even if you change ten more, I won't do it." ”

Cao Hong also said with a calm face: "Huyan City Lord, this is not a matter of servants, this is the face of my Cao family, the matter is because of those two handmaidens, if you can't get those two handmaids, where is the face of our Cao family?"

Hu Yanlie said: "Elder Cao, now that the war is imminent, everything we should do should be based on the interests of our whole city. ”

"A person from the outside is in danger to us here, we should directly kill him, so as not to know about our affairs, the city lord takes him in, and we also believe in the city lord, but for the sake of an outsider, it destroys the relationship between our Cao family and the city lord, and the city lord should think twice. ”

This sentence has a threatening meaning, and the Cao family does have the strength to say such a thing.

Hu Yanlie took a deep breath and said, "Okay, since you don't give in to each other, then let's use the most direct way." ”

Cao Hong's eyes lit up and said, "Okay!"

Song Xiaodong was a little puzzled, what is the most direct way that Hu Yanlie said?

Hu Yanlie turned his head to look at Song Xiaodong and said: "If we have any problems here that can't be solved, then in the end, in terms of the level of kung fu, the Cao family will send one person, and Mr. Song will also send one person, whoever wins, will deal with it according to the other party's requirements." ”

Song Xiaodong narrowed his eyes and said, "Okay, I also agree with this method." ”

Hu Yanlie nodded and said, "Since the two of you have no opinion, then this matter is settled, see you at the school after sunrise tomorrow!"

Cao Hong said: "Huyan City Lord, you won't fight in place of him, right?"

Song Xiaodong didn't wait for the city lord of Huyan to speak, he had already spoken: "My own business, why bother the city lord, but now your condition is to win and ask for my handmaid, so what if I win?"

Cao Bing snorted and said loudly: "We won, do you still have your life? ”

Song Xiaodong's eyes swept Cao Bing, and the murderous aura was surging!

Hu Yanlie said: "What Mr. Song said is that what if he wins? ”

Cao Hong snorted and said, "If you mention it, our Cao family will take it." ”

Song Xiaodong looked at Cao Hong, then squinted his eyes and said, "Very good, if I win, I want twenty young men from your Cao family." ”

Cao Hong's face changed, twenty young and strong men, that is, half of the Cao family's fighting strength, this requirement is not low.

Cao Bing said disdainfully at this time: "Okay, we promise you, you really seem to be able to win, haha, I really don't know how thick the sky is." ”

Cao Hong thought about it for a while, and said happily: "No problem, if you really have this ability, our Cao family will give you twenty young and strong men." ”

Hu Yanlie nodded and said, "Okay, then the agreement between the two parties is established, and I will invite all the major families in the city to testify." ”

Cao Hong nodded, then stood up and said, "Huyan City Lord, then don't bother." ”

Before leaving, Cao Bing looked at Song Xiaodong with a sneer, and his gaze was like looking at a dead man.

Hu Yanlie sent them to the door, then turned back, frowned, and said to Song Xiaodong: "Mr. Song, for the sake of the two maidservants, is it really worth it for you to do this?"

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly, and said: "Huyan City Lord, this may be the difference between your concepts here and ours, we think that whether it is a man or a woman, it is all equal, Hua Rui and Hua Qing took me out, and they encountered this matter, I have to stand up for them, this is the dignity of being a man!"

Hu Yanlie smiled bitterly and said: "Then this doesn't matter in advance, but do you know that the Cao family has a master, and the kung fu is not under me, I will do it with you, to be honest, I still have spare strength, how can you beat him?"

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly again and said, "I admit that the city lord of Huyan is indeed stronger than me, but I also have a way to save my life, and there is still a difference between fighting and fighting." ”

Hu Yanlie's eyes lit up, stared at Song Xiaodong for more than ten seconds, laughed, and said, "Since Mr. Song has such confidence, then why should I worry?"

"In life, you can't be afraid of the head, since you have to fight, then you have to fight!"

"What a fight!" Hu Yanlie laughed again.

Song Xiaodong said again at this time: "Huyan City Lord, I don't know what you think about this kind of family system?"

Hu Yanlie said suspiciously, "What do you think?"

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was basically the big family that decided the fate of a country, and whether or not it could get the support of the major families was the primary task of a country's monarch.

These people have survived underground for so many years, although there are constant wars, but there is no stimulation of foreign civilizations, coupled with the influence of the natural environment, so whether they are human beings themselves or in the way of thinking, they are basically still stuck in that era.

"In peacetime, the family system may allow you to directly manage their family heads, but when war comes, each family is afraid that they will consider their own interests, so they can't unite as one, and you can't do the order and prohibition, do you think this is really a good system?"

"This ......" Hu Yanlie was stunned for a moment.

Song Xiaodong arched his hand and said, "Huyan City Lord, the big war is coming, and there are some disadvantages, so you need to use thunder to control it." ”

Hu Yanlie frowned and said, "You are destroying the original situation in our city. ”

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly, and said: "The rules that have always been are not necessarily right, if you think about it from a different angle, you may have different ideas, I just remind you that I will support you if the city lord is willing to do it or not." ”
