The old man in Confucian clothes was Huang Zun, the county commander of Huai'an City. He was born in the partial branch of the Huang family in Jingzhou, his family is not outstanding, and his spiritual power is almost not much higher than Gao Cheng before the breakthrough, and he is at the fourth layer of soul cultivation.

This kind of county order that does not have a strong family and does not have too much power itself is destined to become a puppet of the family in the city, and the man in brocade next to him is Sun Xi, the head of the Huai'an Sun family.

If his momentum was fully released, he would definitely be able to suppress Huang Zun speechless. By his side, there were two people, an old man and a young man, who were the middle-aged master and heir of the Sun family who was secretly observing Gao Cheng in the restaurant just now.

"Ziming doesn't have to be polite!" Huang Zun hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Gao Cheng from saluting, he already knew what was happening here, and couldn't help but feel extremely jealous of Gao Cheng's strong strength.

I didn't expect to go to a Mei clan, and then a more powerful and domineering Gao clan! Seeing that Gao Cheng's style of acting is very different from before he went to Yingchuan, he is ruthless and ruthless to his enemies, this kind of character is many times more powerful than Meicheng.

The more jealous he was in his heart, the more gentle his face became, showing a very appreciative look, and said: "Ziming, we haven't seen each other for a long time, your father was shrewd and capable, he was my right-hand man, I didn't expect that the blue is better than the blue, your ability now has surpassed your father, and the future is limitless!"

Gao Cheng was still ready to continue to improve his strength, he was not interested in going around in circles with the other party, and said directly: "Thank you for the praise of the county zun, but compared to my father, I am still far behind!

Sun Xi, who was standing on the side, stepped forward and said: "Since the virtuous nephew asked, then I will say it directly, the Mei clan forcibly occupied the good land of the Gao clan first, and the virtuous nephew took action to destroy the Mei clan, and we have no opinion, but in order to become the county lieutenant of Huai'an City, Meicheng is organizing county soldiers to exterminate the bandits in Baima Lake." ”

"Now that others have been killed by the virtuous nephew, it would be a pity to give up this early preparation. There are also bandits in White Horse Lake who will have to be cleared up sooner or later, so the county lord and I want to discuss with you, please temporarily serve as the county lieutenant, lead the soldiers and horses in the city, and solve the water thieves in White Horse Lake. As long as the virtuous nephew can make a contribution, maybe he can take this opportunity to join the imperial court and become a real county lieutenant!"

Huang Zun and Sun Xi's plan is not to prepare for guilt and trouble, but to give Gao Cheng a huge benefit, the county lieutenant is the official of the Han court, the rank is 400 stones, in ordinary years, this kind of position must be appointed by the edict of Luoyang Shangshutai, the so-called temporary county lieutenant is only nominally good, in fact not recognized by the imperial court.

However, if Gao Cheng led his soldiers to deal with the bandits in Baima Lake, it would be tantamount to making military achievements! Now that the world is gradually chaotic, many heroes and heroes have made their mark through military exploits at this time. If Huang Zun and Sun Xi jointly reported to Guangling and recommended Gao Cheng, a meritorious minister, to serve as the county lieutenant to guard Sangzi. Guangling Taishou generally does not refuse.

Gao Cheng groaned for a moment and did not answer immediately.

Seeing this, Sun Xi said: "Since the virtuous nephew can kill the warriors of the ninth layer of training, presumably the bandits of White Horse Lake will not be your opponents, of course, for the sake of fairness, our Sun clan will also send elite soldiers." Send out the master to help the virtuous nephew!"

Gao Cheng's gaze swept over the middle-aged man behind him, this middle-aged man with pale temples was Sun's hole card, and he was also a warrior with a ninth-level training. With his help, it's not impossible to go to White Horse Lake.

Moreover, if he can become the county lieutenant of Huai'an City, it will also be of great benefit to the Gao clan in the future! Gao Cheng thought for a while, and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the county lord and Sun Shibo, this matter will be handed over to me!"

Seeing Gao Cheng's demeanor and actions, it was obvious that he already knew their good intentions, so Huang Zun and Sun Xi breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts at the same time, they were most afraid that the other party was a stunned young man, and they couldn't even understand their good intentions.

After saying this, the atmosphere became a little more lively, and Sun Yue on the side also took the opportunity to come over and say a few words to Gao Cheng. Sun Yue and Mei Lin have similar identities and are the heirs of the Sun family. As far as Gao Cheng knew, he used to have a haughty personality, and some looked down on the children of the poor family and ordinary people.

However, when others show a certain ability, Sun Cheng can also lower his face and take the initiative to woo him. Gao Cheng's original body was just a nerd who couldn't do anything, so naturally he didn't have much intersection with a family like him.

After some conversation, the county magistrate Huang Zun has some understanding of Gao Cheng's character, the other party should be the kind of character that you don't offend me, I won't offend, if you offend me, I will cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

For Huang Zun, his power in Huai'an City is weak, and the other party shows such terrifying strength, he naturally won't provoke the other party if he has nothing to do. Sun Xi also thinks the same way.

For the children of the family, when they encounter a strong person who can't resist, then find a way to make this strong person their own. Unless it is a real deep feud that cannot be erased, there are few life-and-death battles between the major families. Gao Cheng's killing of the Mei clan this time can also be justified, but it will definitely leave a bad impression on the families of Guangling or Xiapi.

For these children of the family, Gao Cheng has such a strong strength, as long as he returns to Huai'an City, as long as he shows it, the Mei clan will definitely return all the land with interest, and maybe there will be compensation, and everything has room for redemption. There is no need to be so violent.

After a while, Huang Zun and Sun Xi's goal this time had been achieved, so they took the initiative to leave.

Gao Tai next to him was silent when everyone was talking, and only after everyone left, did he say: "Childe, the waters of Baima Lake are vast, and we can't deal with these water thieves without boats! I can't resist the fierce water thieves!"

Pei Yuanshao's face changed slightly when he heard the boat and water battle, the water battle is completely different from the land war and the cavalry battle, if you accidentally fall into the water, it will be very troublesome if you are not watery.

Gao Cheng said disapprerovitously: "There is no need to send soldiers, since the county order has made me temporarily serve as a county lieutenant, then I have the right to recruit county soldiers and people, Huai'an is close to Hongze Lake, not far from the south is the Yangtze River, and the water network is vertical and horizontal." As long as there are enough supplies, a group of soldiers who are proficient in water can be summoned temporarily!"

"This time we got all the property of the Mei family, which is a lot of wealth, and with sufficient financial support, it is very easy to train sailors and build boats. As for the post of county lieutenant, it is more important to us, and we must strive for it as much as we can if we have the opportunity to get it!"

What Gao Cheng said was indeed easy to do, but Gao Tai still frowned, and said: "What Childe said is good, but who does Childe plan to let train the sailors?

Gao Cheng pondered for a moment and said: "Let's train according to the training method in the military book first, the leader of the water thieves in Baima Lake is not an extraordinary powerhouse in the realm of refining gang, as long as the trained water soldiers can take me to the lair of the water thieves in a normal boat, when the time comes, I will personally kill the leader of the other party, and I will definitely be able to win with one blow!"
