Chapter 66: The Five Great Families

"By the way, let's talk about the latest progress of the current enemy situation!"

Ding Zhuqiang calmed down, sat down again, and asked questions.

Miao Changnian turned around, his anger gradually subsided, and he sat back in his seat and said, "According to the news I got this morning, Ten Thousand Beasts City has entered the southwest mountain, but the itinerary has slowed down. ”

Yu Ding looked at him silently, and Uncle Ah Lan replied with a debt: "The news I got is the same, after Aoxing City and Baichuan City entered the desolate region, they have set up camp and rested. ”

"That's right. Ding Zhuqiang slapped his thigh and said clearly: "After a long journey, these two cities will not advance recklessly and easily. How can it be said that there are lions and herons in the southwestern mountains who occupy the mountains as kings? And the desolate land has earth dragons to dominate? In this way, according to my calculations, it will take at least 10 days before the troops will come to the city. But just in case, we still have to keep an eye on their movements. ”

"Hmm. ”

Uncle Ah Lan nodded to Miao Changnian and agreed to it.

"Remember to bring some guards to watch the battle tomorrow, such a grand event, but it's still the first time that the big girl gets on the sedan chair!"

Ding Zhuqiang felt it, and happily held the thirty bamboo sticks in his hand, his eyes were bright......

"That's it, you guys go get busy first!"

After groaning, Ding Zhuqiang held a large bamboo stick in his hand, took the lead in leaving his seat, went out of the hall, and personally arranged tomorrow's martial arts competition.

"What the hell is this kid doing?"

Miao has been looking at it in his eyes and paying attention to it in his heart for many years, especially for the big handful of bamboo sticks, which is very inexplicable?

"This kid is always unexpected and unpredictable, and it's not the first time you and I have seen him. Uncle Ah Lan finished drinking tea, left his seat and said, "Let's take a look at the martial arts competition held by this kid tomorrow!"

"That's right. Miao Changnian followed out and nodded in praise: "This kid really has some ability, and he has made this Eight Desolate City more and more rich." In my opinion, even if the three cities jointly attack, the people of these eight desolate cities will inevitably help the whole city to resist it, and such a good city lord, among the ten major cities in the human world, I am afraid that there will be no second person. ”

"Hahaha......" Uncle Ah Lan laughed even more: "It's no wonder, you and I will reach an agreement to jointly recommend this kid to be the new city lord of the Eight Desolations." ”

On this day, all the people of the Eight Desolate Cities who got the news talked about it in the streets and alleys, and it once became a hot topic. At the same time, the pro-soldiers appointed by Ding Zhuqiang also sent notices and invitations to the five major families in the Eight Desolate City who were slightly rich and powerful......

After all, there is a saying, strong dragons don't suppress the head snake! Ding Zhuqiang still did a good job on this point, and these five major families are not angry about the death of the previous Eight Desolation City Lord, just because the former Eight Desolation City Lord is really unsatisfactory, in order to consolidate the hegemonic position, the five major families are also bullying and suppressing as much as possible. Just as those who have attained the Tao have much help, those who have lost the Tao have little help. So much so that he had to grovel and turn to the slightly merciful Lord of Aoxing City......

The next day, as soon as the sky was gray, the Eight Desolate Cities were like a New Year's Festival, and every household got up early to light a fire to cook, just to see the Eight Desolate Cities, the first time I heard of the martial arts competition......

Ding Zhuqiang was also very nervous and excited, he really didn't expect that his whim, the martial arts competition would cause the whole city to boil, early in the morning, as soon as the sun came out, it blocked the gate of the school......

But fortunately, Ding Zhuqiang had already prepared and directly mobilized the newly recruited infantry team of Miao Changnian to maintain order......

But no matter how wide the back garden of this mansion is, it can't accommodate tens of thousands of people in the whole city! And some villagers outside the Eight Desolations City also came to join in the fun......

"Someone come, pass my order, and lead someone to tear down all the walls of this school. ”

Ding Zhuqiang, who was anxious to finish breakfast, came to the back garden of this school, his eyes swept the dense crowd outside the gate of the school, and he immediately gave an order.

"Chase the strong, it's not good for you to be like this!"

Following behind Ding Zhuqiang with the same closed moon, Ruoshui, who never left an inch, couldn't help but persuade.

"If you push it, you can build it again! You see, it's rare for the people in the whole city to be so enthusiastic, so it's hard to turn them away! Besides, the main purpose of my current martial arts competition is to publicize it, and naturally the more people watch, the better. ”

Ding Zhuqiang said with a smile, and led the two delicate and radiant Yingying girls, and under the greeting, walked straight towards the viewing seat, and unceremoniously sat down in the center.

And in the high tent built here, it is full of friends, full of seats, if the water and the closed moon are one left and one right, sitting next to Ding Zhuqiang. At this moment, it attracted the attention of countless people, and more of them had squinting eyes that were difficult to hide......

"Lord of the City, this is the famous alchemist in the Eight Desolations City, known as the East Fence Medicine Master who is known as the reincarnation of the Nine Souls, and he is also the head of the East Fence family. ”

At this moment, under the recommendation of the reception attendant, an old man who was over the age of old, but his face was full of red light, and he led seven clansmen of all ages, young and old, wearing the same brocade clothes, to Ding Zhuqiang, who was sitting peacefully.

"Oh! It turned out to be the medicine master of the East Fence? I have admired the name for a long time, like thunder, and when I saw it today, it was really fortunate that he was so lucky, how fortunate he was, please take a seat quickly." ”

Ding Zhuqiang hurriedly got up, smiling, extremely polite, and greetings.

The pharmacist of the East Fence looked at Ding Zhuqiang with a kind smile, and said with a very satisfied chin head: "The city lord is too polite, today I can see the style of the city lord, and the old decay is also a big eye-opener!

"Lord of the City, the Jin family is here. ”

At this moment, another reception attendant hurriedly rushed to report.

"Oh?"

Ding Zhuqiang's eyes lit up, and he had already heard that this Jin family was the leading wealthy man in this Eight Desolations City. I also heard that the eldest son of the former Lord of the Eight Desolations City is the nephew of the Jin family, so it is no wonder that he is rich. But it's a pity that in the battle of the night attack on the Miao clan with the army, the father of the city lord with him, under the blasting of the barbarian clan's barbarian blood sacrifice, the bones have long been gone.

"Your Excellency, you are really gratifying, and you can hold such a grand and grand martial arts competition. ”

As soon as he arrived, the head of the Jin family, who had passed the age of not being confused, was graceful and wealthy, pot-bellied, smiling and smiling, and greeted him with his hands.

When Ding Zhuqiang saw that there were no less than ten people in the Jin family, all of them wearing gold and silver, they were not gorgeous, they were obviously deliberately showing off for themselves, or even setting up a prestige for themselves.

But also, it is excusable, after all, the second son of the Eight Desolation City Lord died. If there is no accident, this inheritance will fall on the eldest prince. But they also suffered misfortune, how can they not make the Jin family resentful?

Ding Zhuqiang smiled slightly and said: "The head of the Jin family is polite, this time I also want to invite your family to be able to fund the expansion after watching the martial arts competition held for the first time in the Eight Desolations Academy!"

"Hmph!" As soon as Ding Zhuqiang finished speaking, he only heard a young man who was slightly older than Ding Zhuqiang, and snorted angrily: "Lord City Lord, is this trying to blackmail my Jin family?"

"How can this be!" Ding Zhuqiang smiled, completely harmless to humans and animals, and even bowed his hand to apologize in front of the Jin family master who was also faintly angry and gloomy with a fat pig face, and said without humility or arrogance: "I think the Jin family master should still remember the looting and burning riot launched by the city lord of Aoxing more than a month ago! Now the city lord only wants to say eight words, one is lost, and one is prosperous." I also ask the head of the Kim family to be able to see clearly. Alright, please take a seat!"

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. ”

After all, the head of the Jin family is the head of the family, and as the leading chaebol in the Eight Desolations City, he has his own shrewd mind, and he must have a unique opinion on the eight characters that Ding Zhuqiang advised. He immediately put away his arrogance, took the family members, and walked straight to the seat that had been prepared long ago.

As for the next three families, they are weak, and they can be called indiscriminate, but the emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and one of them is the declining ancient martial arts family, the Feiling family. Although its force is inferior, it has a unique attainment.

I once heard that the previous Eight Desolations City Lord had been secretly attacked, which was from the hands of the Feiling family, and it was precisely because of this that the Eight Desolations City Lord has always regarded the Feiling family as a thorn in the flesh and wanted to deal with it quickly, but because the Feiling family is like a double-edged sword, it has not really been eradicated, but it is essential to suppress it.

In Ding Zhuqiang's reception, the Feiling family was relatively much more indifferent, not only did they rarely even speak, but they were also wrapped in black and covered faces, with only a few people. It's like more than a month ago, the scout guards who attacked Miao Chang for many years are no different......

Ding Zhuqiang is not surprised, in line with the principle of harmonious coexistence, he still greeted him with a very polite smile, and personally greeted him to take a seat. It is much more perfect than the other four tribes.

This undoubtedly made the head of the Feiling family, who was masked and didn't know whether it was a man or a woman, surprised, let down his guard, and had a good feeling.

Ding Zhuqiang is only interested in the Dongli family, the Feiling family, and the Jin family, as for the remaining two clans, they are just a rabble, and the family can be said to be a gang and do nonsense. The other is a small business and smuggles goods. But it should not be underestimated, after all, if you can win over, you can win over, at least in the current situation of the great enemy in front of you, you can't make infighting, you must unite as one......

As for the Miao clan and the Barbarian clan, they are all their own families, so they don't need Ding Zhuqiang to receive them, they are very conscious, with three or two cronies, and sit aside with Ding Zhuqiang.

Uncle Ah Lan and Miao Changnian each represented the leader, and from beginning to end, they were really amazed by Ding Zhuqiang, but they didn't expect this inconspicuous martial arts competition to receive such a miraculous effect before it opened.

But how did they know that for this kind of social gathering, Ding Zhuqiang did not study in the West for three years in vain, and the know-how had already been in place......
