Chapter 207: The Storm is Coming
"What Captain Zhang said is."
The city lord smiled dryly, looked at the long knife, and when he saw Zhang Feng put the knife down, he continued: "That.. Does Team Zhang have any thoughts on the beginning of autumn? ”
"Thoughts?" Zhang Feng looked at the city lord, he didn't know which play he was singing, and he didn't know whether he was speaking clearly.
"If the lord of the city has anything, just say it.."
Zhang Feng walked forward, passed by the personnel of the Ministry of Law, and pushed the knife back into his scabbard, "I'm going to go back and rest, let's stop playing dumb riddles." ”
"It's not. What do you say about this.." The city lord looked at the people in the city who were gradually quieting down, and explained in a low voice: "I'm afraid that there are still remnants of the Chamber of Commerce here... Not a place to talk.."
As he spoke, he invited again: "Why don't you come and sit in the City Lord's Mansion?" What I want to say is also about the Eastern Regions... I want Team Zhang to see some information.."
"Done." When Zhang Feng heard that the city lord was so cautious, he really thought that he had something important, so he didn't have any excuses, so he prepared to go over and take a look.
"Please!" After the city lord shielded the people around him, he led Zhang Feng to the outside of the field, and there was his car not far away.
"You go back first." Zhang Feng looked at the people next to him and asked them to go back to their temporary place first.
When the city lord saw it, he invited him: "There are some guest rooms in the mansion. If Team Zhang doesn't mind and doesn't dislike it, he can treat the City Lord's Mansion as temporary."
"When the lord of the city said this, he saw outside." Zhang Feng interrupted him, "What kind of dislike is not disliked." Now it's important to get down to business, and everything else is trivial."
..
Wait until eleven o'clock at night.
A convoy of people came to the area of the City Lord's Mansion thirty miles away.
Zhang Feng saw that the city lord's mansion in the Eastern Regions was a courtyard of twelve three-story small villa buildings, connected into a large villa area.
The lord of the city and some officials in the city all worked and lived here.
Seven of the villas are vacant and are also rooms for entertaining the high-ups.
It is cleaned every day and can be checked in at any time.
also waited for everyone to cross the cordon outside the villa area and enter one of the rooms.
Zhang Feng looked at the city lord who came with him, and also wanted to ask what was the matter.
But as soon as the city lord spoke, he came up with all kinds of excuses, and then talked about some 'small actions' in the past two years of repentance, as well as the matter of the beginning of the autumn half a month later, after he had full authority to listen to Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng understood, it turned out that the city lord was preparing to hand over his power in secret, let himself take the lead, and take charge of the war in the Eastern Regions, but he was to take the blame.
That's right, although such a thing can be done on the bright side, it certainly can't be said on the bright side.
Because this is all the power given by the top, how can anyone give it privately and say it to his face?
This is obviously not giving face to the boss and treating rights as child's play.
When the news goes out, Zhang Feng is fine, but the city lord is absolutely finished.
"I've been living here lately." Zhang Feng saw that the scenery of the villa area was good, and it was in the center of the Eastern Regions, so he also agreed, and just followed the task line and grasped the highest power in the Eastern Regions.
In this way, no matter what you do in the future, or what you do, no one will give you a hard mouth.
"What are you going to do with those criminals?" When the city lord saw Zhang Feng agreeing, he was talking about the remnants of the Chamber of Commerce again, waiting for Zhang Feng's orders.
At this time, he entered the role of a housekeeper who helped Zhang Feng do things.
When Zhang Feng heard it, he waved his hand and asked him to do whatever he wanted.
Anyway, there are two or three kittens, and it is not a big deal in their own perception.
It's just a matter of killing it, no matter how simple it is, how can you use it to find it.
It's better to keep it out for a while, and maybe you can come to 'pay off the remnants' bounty.
"Team Zhang rests first.." The city lord regarded it as a big deal, and was ready to send someone to investigate overnight, and he wanted to do the first thing that Team Zhang handed over to him.
Later.
The lord of the castle left.
Zhang Feng looked at his back, but felt that this person was very interesting and lively.
For there is a part of his file in the materials of the Ministry of the Law.
Including the Eastern Regions Chamber of Commerce, there is also a lot of information about him.
And some executives of the Chamber of Commerce also reported that the city lord took things from them.
Zhang Feng has seen it and knows it.
All in all, the city lord is a 'good man' in the Eastern Regions, so good that the relationship between the forces of all parties is not deep, but he is more or less involved.
But it was in such a delicate relationship, coupled with the fact that his position was really conspicuous, that he was able to gain a foothold in the chaotic Eastern Regions and sit firmly as the city lord for two years.
Including the ruthless Chairman Xu, he also thought that the city lord would not interfere with his plan, so he did not carry out any crackdowns, pulled him down, and then attracted the attention of the top here, and sent an unfamiliar city lord over.
The same is true of the other forces, everyone is trying to make profits, and they are in their own alliances, crisscrossing each other, so that the Eastern Regions has become like this.
In the final analysis, the Eastern Regions belong to the grandmother who doesn't hurt and the uncle doesn't love, and it is simply a barrier against the East China Sea, so that their various forces can operate their own businesses.
The city lord doesn't care about anything, but he has to know any force.
Zhang Feng thought of this, and there was a feeling.
That's what the top is doing on purpose? Deliberately zoning the city into a 'three-regardless' zone?
Put on a kind of 'the city lord we sent over' doesn't care about you, as long as you don't go too far and don't engage the city lord, then it's casual.
For the sake of their respective forces and development, President Na Xu must have contributed 120 percent of their efforts to protect their 'own city' from the oppression and attack of the beast tide, and also contributed to the construction.
As for whose city belongs in the end, this is naturally a part of the Central Plains and is inseparable.
Zhang Feng thought, feeling as if it might be so.
And as time passes.
During this period of time in the city lord's mansion.
The city lord came to report his work in person every day, and brought a computer, which was full of information about the Eastern Regions and the beast tide in previous years.
Everyone had already begun to discuss the matter of defending against the beast tide.
It can be said that the conference is held once a day, and there are many leaders who come to participate.
But it's not just the big guys who are busy.
Outside the city, as the beginning of autumn approaches.
There are also many adventurers who wander around the Eastern Regions, reflecting the activity areas of some Evolution Beasts, and where more Evolution Beasts may gather, or where the Evolution Beasts in the sea will land, and so on.
Such letters and data files are like snowflakes floating from everywhere every day and are sent to the tables of various forces.
The personnel of each faction also took turns to collect useful information, enter it into the file database of the wired computer, and upload it to the terminal of the city lord's mansion.
It is related to the rise and fall of the Eastern Regions, and they are still a united front, discussing it together in the City Lord's Mansion.
Every year.
This time is also the time when the Eastern Regions are most united.
The personnel in the city lord's mansion who were in charge of wartime intelligence also classified this information, labeled it as a known evolution beast, sorted it out into small folders, and put it in a villa for all the big people who came to browse.
In this way, Zhang Feng occasionally discussed with everyone in the villa, or recruited personnel, and everyone held a meeting.
The days passed.
The most obvious thing is that the temperature has also changed sharply in the past few days.
If you talk about the ordinary temperature, when the weather is good, there are more than ten degrees, and people with strong bodies can also wear short sleeves.
But now, with a humid chill, it gradually spreads throughout the Eastern Regions and Iwa Province, and the temperature drops to about zero degrees.
The plants still follow the change of seasons and fall off their leaves.
Everyone knows that summer is over.
Until the early morning of the thirteenth day.
Dark clouds covered the horizon, and drizzle fell.
Zhang Feng sat in front of the window of the house, feeling the cold morning breeze, knowing that the beginning of autumn had arrived.
