Chapter 922: Greasy
"What?! You said Jiang Ming wanted to see me? Is that Jiang Ming?"
Although it was a little far away, Jiang Ming could clearly hear the shock and confusion of the person on the other side of the communicator.
"Yes, Lord Archon, it is the elven creator, Mr. Jiang Ming."
The security guard hurriedly replied, his tone extremely solemn.
"Then why are you still stunned! Hurry up and get someone in!!"
After speaking, Jiang Ming seemed to hear the sound of being knocked down again from the communicator, and then with a low scream, this time the communication ended.
"I'm sorry Mr. Jiang Ming, I've kept you waiting, please come with me." The eldest brother stood up slightly respectfully, and led Jiang Ming into the heavily guarded consul's mansion with his hands and feet.
As a public official sent by the Donghuang Federation Headquarters to supervise the operation of various cities, the security personnel of the Archon's Mansion will definitely not be the only guy at the door who is only a third-order awakened person.
When Jiang Ming entered this mansion, Mashado told him that in addition to the transcendent who sat in the center, there was also a sixth-order evolutionary and three fifth-order evolutionaries inside.
After all, it is a city with the top school in the second district, even if the level is the same as that of Coastal City, there is even an eighth-order transcendent in the city of Yinghui City, so it is natural to have spare strength to equip the Archon's Mansion with a transcendent to protect the safety of the consul.
After all, if he had any accidents here, then all the high-level officials in Yinghui City would have to be punished heavily.
That's not worth it.
……
The consul of Yinghui City was a middle-aged man who looked a little pot-bellied, and his first impression on Jiang Ming was not very good.
And in the conversation that followed, the consul also perfectly showed the image of an official who had no ability and just wanted to mess around.
In short, it gives people the feeling that if he is in power, he will inevitably be a corrupt official and corrupt official.
If it weren't for Jiang Ming's perception that the other party's inner mood fluctuations were extremely stable, and he was not at all as incompetent as he appeared, he would probably have been easily deceived.
Jiang Ming vaguely glanced at the consul in front of him a few times, although he still didn't understand why the other party deliberately pretended to be incompetent, he didn't plan to bother too much in this regard.
Anyway, no matter what kind of person he is, it has nothing to do with Jiang Ming.
So Jiang Ming didn't plan to continue to talk to this old fox, and directly asked the other party if the Federal Headquarters had sent an elf called Giant Charcoal Mountain or Big Charcoal Car to Yinghui City this year.
"Huh? Is there such a thing? I don't know." Jiang Ming didn't expect that the archon in front of him would show a blank look after hearing the names of these two elves.
"The matter of the city's connection with the Federation Headquarters is generally the responsibility of Commander He of the City Guard, and I just came here to mix up for a term, and I don't know what is going on." The archon said with some embarrassment at the end.
Then, as if he felt that he was so incompetent, the Archon made another attempt to finally think of something: "Oh, but one thing that comes to mind is that there is indeed a lot more coal supply this winter, and even a lot more vegetables than in previous years."
It's a pity that these words didn't play their due role for Jiang Ming, who had already sensed the undisguised anger and disgust in the other party's heart.
However, the other party did not lie about the types of vegetables in the second half of the sentence.
Jiang Ming suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the man in front of him: although Yinghui City did not provide too many kinds of vegetables in the market when there was not enough coal in previous years, this situation should only be aimed at the middle and lower class residents of the city.
And for high-ranking personnel like the archons, the indoor farms in the city will definitely leave them some vegetable quotas.
Even though the variety may not be as abundant as normal, there will certainly be vegetables they want to eat and love to eat.
However, now listening to the archon, it seems that his condition is not much better than that of ordinary people.
That's a lot of intriguing......
It stands to reason that even if the local interest factions in the various cities, led by the city guards, don't want outsiders like the consuls to share their power, shouldn't they be so obvious?
People represent the headquarters of the Donghuang Federation, and the ruling party is here, and at least the face still has to be given.
If it weren't for the lack of brains in the head of the city guard, it would mean that the archon had had some very unpleasant past with the interest groups here.
Tut-tut......
Jiang Ming didn't want to get involved in this kind of political struggle for power and profit, so after getting a hint on how to go to the next step, he didn't plan to stay here longer, and hurriedly got up and said goodbye.
Only after the consul sent Jiang Ming to the door, he looked at the back of him leaving and looked secretly distracted.
"Jiang Ming...... Elven ......"
……
When he came to the city guard station, Jiang Ming was treated almost the same as before after revealing his identity, and was soon respectfully invited in by several city guard soldiers at the gate.
And when he was led to the Great Commander's office, Jiang Ming finally saw a large number of various elves for the first time after coming to Yinghui City.
Most of them still
Mainly those who are more resistant to cold.
In addition to the ice type of Tsula, there are also the Roentgen cat family with thick fur, the sturdy Chaoli King family and the Nido family.
Then there are the elves whose bodies are made of rocks and have high enough resistance to cold climates.
Because the City Guards are the official violent agencies of each region after all, they don't need to consider other messy factors when buying elves, they just need to make sure that elves can really help them improve their combat effectiveness.
At the same time, the companies that act as agents of the elves also like such customers very much, after all, they not only give money happily, but also buy a lot of money, and the profits are quacked.
Soon Jiang Ming came to his destination and met the commander of the city guards here, the seventh-order wind element transcendor, He Meilan.
She is a slender and tall beauty.
However, from the level of the evolutionary, whether it is male or female, there is basically no ugliness.
"Hello, Commander He."
After all, the other party was a transcendent, so Jiang Ming chose to greet first.
"You're Jiang Ming?"
He Meilan turned around and looked at the young man with interest.
