Chapter Fifty-Nine: Prologue to the City Lord Election (Collect!)
The mud bodhisattva city has been very lively recently, the lights are lit up everywhere as if it is the New Year's Festival, and people's interest in going to the street is more than ever.
Zeng Yuyuan followed Xu Bin's suggestion, and set up a stage on the street every day or gave a passionate speech on the history of the Zeng family's past, the outlook for the future, and what changes the Zeng family could make for the mud bodhisattva city by relying on the Zeng family's big tree, and what thoughts he had about the past, present and future of the mud bodhisattva city.
The speeches are arranged in stages, what to say on which day, how to speak, after the speech, will accept all kinds of questions from the people of the mud bodhisattva city, and then formulate the content of the next day's speech according to the questions that the people are most interested in that day.
The male servants and maids of the Zeng family wearing energetic uniforms also kept shuttling through the crowd to hand out snacks and tea, and there were even discount coupons for the Zeng family's shops.
The people of Mud Bodhisattva City said that the posture and form shown by the Zeng family in this city lord election were very new to them, and they were also very happy to hear about it.
In the past, although the election of the city lord nominally required the consent of the people of Mud Bodhisattva City, at most, the major families sent a representative, and the officials and lords from above were locked up in the city lord's mansion and decided somehow, but this year is different, and the big guys have a real sense of being involved.
"This lady of the Zeng family is really amazing! I think she won't be able to run away if she is elected as the city lord this time. ”
"That's the big boss of the Zeng family, and he will be the lord of Zeng City in the future, keep his mouth clean, what kind of girl is not a girl, can this be compared to ordinary girls?"
"Hey, what's there to quarrel about, whether it's the ladies of the Zeng family, the head of the Zeng family or the city lord of the Zeng family, it doesn't have to be. ”
"How can you say that it is not necessarily, not to mention that the face of the He family is not seen at all, that is, the people of the He family are not pale when they go out, and they are disgusted when they look at it, who will choose him?"
"Who do you think you want to choose is very important! When the time comes, the officials and old men who come above will shoot the board, we are just excited now, can we talk at that time, and who will listen to what they say?"
"This ......"
"Eh, listen to me, when the time comes, let's go to the gate of the city lord's mansion and shout the name of the city lord together, no one listens to one person's voice, but if we are together, they can't hear it if they want to. ”
"Can it be useful? Don't be caught in the black prison by the city guards, it's not worth it. ”
"The designation can be useful, the relationship between the officials and the old man is complicated, who is friends with whom, who is against whom, who can say it clearly, let's gather at the gate of the city lord's mansion and shout, it is to cheer up the city lord Zeng, if the He family is also selected in this way, the people of our mud Bodhisattva City are not vegetarians, this matter is spread out, a disregard for the wishes of the people of the mud Bodhisattva City, the infamy of the officials present who insisted on selecting the He family can be spread out, which official master does not want to save face? Besides, if there are too many of us, the city guards will be arrested, and the black prison will not be able to fit it. ”
"Hey, it looks like you know how big the black prison is? That's a bad idea, but I like it, but how many people can go to the gate of the city lord's mansion that day. ”
"Anyway, near my house, I will go to talk and make peace, I believe that there will be no fewer people who will go, look at the advantages taken by the Zeng family in the past few days, just rush this, and it is not bad to go to the cheering field. ”
"Then I'm in charge of my neighborhood, what about you?"
"Hey, then it goes to say, my cousin just went to Zeng's house to work, and he has only been there for less than a month, and I heard that the food is good and the monthly income is high, so I want to go with it. ”
"Yes, I heard that many families in our area have come to work in the Zeng family, does the Zeng family have so much work to do?"
"I heard that it's still recruiting, people don't have so many jobs to recruit so many people to do, let's take a walk, why don't we go and see it now?"
Well, among the people who chatted, there were real people, and there were also the trusts arranged by Xu Bin for Zeng Yuyuan to guide the direction of public opinion, and on the day of the designated election, there were many people outside the city lord's mansion.
As for the affairs outside the southeast county, Xu Bin temporarily suspended it after recruiting the Han family in Sanshi City and Tengyuan in Tingyue City, first, time does not allow, and the position of the lord of the mud bodhisattva city will soon be on the day of the election, and second, the system is still in the process of selecting and sorting, I have to say that the system is still very reliable, and Xu Bin almost all of the selected candidates are accurate.
Regarding Teng Yuan's side, Xu Bin only asked someone to send the handles collected by the system to the various families in Tingyue City, and the feedback from Teng Yuan's side was also very fast, and in just a few days, he sent the exercises of the two families and the citrine full of three storage rings.
There are always people happy and some sad about things in the world, the Zeng family is jubilant and high-spirited, and the He family is ......
"Young Master, the person you asked the slave to find has already entered the city. He Youcai lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, standing beside He Tian and whispering.
"Well, let's let it out. ”
"Yes, the slave will do it in a hidden way. ”
He Tian asked He Youcai to find a group of ruffians and hooligans from all over the country, many of whom dared to kill people and set fires, and put these people who could cause trouble into the mud Bodhisattva City, and there were so many people on the street these days, it seems that there must be some chaos to come out.
"Big brother!"
As soon as He Youcai left, a person from He Tian's courtyard rushed in: "Why do you still have the heart to stay in the courtyard?"
He Tian glanced at the person who came, it was his fellow brother, the fourth eldest of the He family, He Ming.
"Why don't we follow the example of the girls of the Zeng family, and also go out to set up a platform, what's the use of sitting here, seeing that most of the people are going to fight for them!"
"Hey, the fourth brother is intimate with the eldest brother, and everything is for the sake of the eldest brother, but I'm going to be jealous. Walking in after He Ming was the second eldest of the He family, He Ping, whose mother was the most beloved aunt of He's father in his early years.
"Jealousy is also true or false, the second brother is just talking about it, the second brother should be the same as me, I wish the eldest brother couldn't choose the city lord this time. "This is the third child of the He family, He Rong, although his mother is also the aunt of the He family, but her mother's background is not bad and she has rich financial resources.
"Fourth, don't you know, the eldest brother went to see his father on the first day the Zeng family went to the street, and I heard that he came out in a gray way. He Rong smiled and sat in front of the hall by himself.
"Yes, I also heard that my father lost his temper that day, saying that our He family didn't need to go out to the street and lose his identity and face. He Ping hurriedly walked to He Rong's side, looked at He Tian's face, and didn't dare to sit down.
He Tian's eyelids raised, and he stretched out his hand to the chair under He Rong to make a burst of energy, and the chair He Rong was sitting on shattered: "Get out of here, now without my permission, you dare to enter my yard?"
Fortunately, He Rong's reaction was not slow, he stood up as early as when He Tian raised his eyelids, looked at the chair that was broken into slag and smiled: "Let's go, let's go, this excitement is worth it." ”
He Ping followed behind He Rong, a contemptuous and jealous smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, thinking that no one saw it, and said hello to He Tian: "Since the eldest brother doesn't want to see me and the third brother, then let's go." ”
