Chapter 221: Arrangement
Delia stood up, bowed to everyone, and thanked them sincerely, "Thank you, thank you." Delia accepted everyone's kindness, because she didn't see charity or pity in the eyes of everyone, only sincere help and faint sympathy, so Delia didn't refuse, and gladly accepted everyone's kindness, but she secretly made up her mind in her heart that this kindness must be repaid a thousand times over, and they are not short of gold coins, so they will repay these kind people with their loyalty.
Because there are still important things to discuss, Ouyang Feng gave Pei Di a look, Pei Di nodded slightly, and said to Delia with a smile: "Even if you start working on the first day today, there is nothing to do now, you will go back to take care of your mother in the afternoon, early tomorrow morning, you go to the shopkeeper of Andoran, help him do some chores for the time being, and wait for a few days, after the first batch of goods arrives, you will start to familiarize yourself with the price and use of the cultivation items." Delia nodded in agreement, stood up and said goodbye very interestingly, Ouyang Feng and the others got up to see each other, and Elena sent Delia out of the door before reluctantly returning to the villa.
Delia was very happy, not only because she had found a job with such a high salary, but also because these bosses were very nice people, and Delia felt that being with them did not have the same pressure as when she wanted to be with President Jesse, but made her feel very friendly.
Delia first went home to take a look, told her mother about the meeting to make her mother happy, and then, at the urging of her mother, instead of resting at home, she went directly to the shop that was still being renovated to help.
Delia left, Ouyang Feng nodded and said, "Well, this little girl is good." Can be cultivated. Although the others didn't know why Ouyang Feng said that. But they didn't ask much. Because they also have a good feeling for Delia, a little girl, especially for her persistence in making money and taking care of your mother at such a young age.
After chatting for a while, Ouyang Feng's topic changed, and he began to discuss the matter of the chief steward and the city lord, and Hongshang and Mingyue, who were still monitoring the city lord's mansion outside, also participated in the discussion through guò transmission.
After more than two hours of analysis, Ouyang Feng and the others frowned one by one, because they really couldn't guess what the city lord was thinking. Whether it is really to give Carl face, or whether he has already realized their true identity, first show favor to let his guard down, and then surprise himself and these people, these are all possible.
When it was time for dinner, everyone didn't discuss the reason, and in the end, they could only respond to all changes with the same and wait and see, as long as everyone was vigilant. Even if the city lord of Ula really deals with his own people, then with the strength of everyone. It's not without a chance to escape.
Everyone knows that it is easy to say, but under the siege of hundreds or thousands of subordinates of the Ula City Lord, how many people can escape alive? And how many people will fall here? In fact, if they are conservative, Ouyang Feng and they should leave Ula City now, so that even if the city lord wants to deal with them, it will be impossible, but where can they go if they leave Ula City? Even if they find a new and safe place to stay, but what next? Do they really have to hide in the shadows and cultivate? Although that's not bad, but without an intelligence source, they are more dangerous, they have to go everywhere to collect intelligence, and they have to repeat the mistakes of the past, in that case, it is better to stay in Ula City to gamble once, even if they fail, it's nothing, because Ouyang Feng has already thought of a way to get out of the way, that is not a last resort, Ouyang Feng will not say it, because his method cannot ensure the safety of others except for their core members, in other words, it can only ensure that their small team members leave safely, like Alger, Delia, Andulan, and Zhan Tianhu had no choice but to give up, Ouyang Feng didn't want to do this, so he meditated and perfected his plan whenever he had time, trying to achieve the best of both worlds.
Time passed in the blink of an eye in Ouyang Feng's uninterrupted monitoring of the City Lord's Mansion and heart-scratching waiting, in these three days, Yiqiē was very calm, and the decoration of the shop had been completed ahead of schedule under the supervision of the gang of rogue mercenaries of the Zhan Tianhu, in view of the fact that the Qingyuan Xiuzhen Trading House had not had time to find the source of goods, although the Qingyuan Armed Forces had recruited a few dwarves and human blacksmiths with good skills, although they had already begun to forge weapons, it would take a certain amount of time to store enough goods, so Ouyang Feng decided, with the addition of Qingyuan Rice Shop, the three shops would not open for the time being, and wait until the attitude of the city lord was determined。
These days, Ouyang Feng has also thought of a way to protect Alger and Nina and the others, and there is also hope that Nina's crisis can be resolved once and for all, that is, let them leave Ula City for a while in the name of a mission during this sensitive period.
Ouyang Feng's task for Alger was to go to Giant Rock City and Hengshan City to purchase forged metal, because the two cities were near the Hengduan Mountain Range, which was rich in minerals, and going there to purchase ore or refined metal would not only save a lot of money, but also not arouse the suspicion of outsiders.
Alger knew that at this time, Ouyang Feng gave them this task, in fact, to protect them, Alger was very grateful, and insisted on letting Nina and his brothers leave, he wanted to stay and fight side by side with Ouyang Feng and others, but Ouyang Feng refused with his words.
Ouyang Feng pulled Alger to the small living room, explained him some things, and specially instructed Alger to find a person named Zhou Tong after arriving in Hengshan, if they were still safe in Ula City at that time, let him bring Zhou Tong back secretly, and give Alger a copy of the cultivation exercises of "Overlord Decision", telling him that as long as he took out this exercise book and let Zhou Tong guòmu, he would know his identity. Also, it is to ask Alger to inquire as much as possible about the various news of Giant Rock City and Hengshan City along the way, especially the matter of the hedron mine that made a lot of noise, and the matter of the two major alliances.
Although Alger didn't know why Ouyang Feng was so interested in these things, he didn't ask much and readily agreed. When Alger left this time, Ouyang Feng prepared more than twenty brand-new carriages and enough horses for them, and Alger took a total of a hundred mercenaries, plus the accompanying logistics personnel, almost took away most of the strength of the Tiger Mercenary Group.
Before leaving, Ouyang Feng repeatedly told Alger to pay attention to safety, especially Nina's safety, and explained to Alger that the city was mainly acting against them, and Ouyang Feng would send someone to inform them first, if something like that really happened, Ouyang Feng told Alger not to resist, and left the other mercenaries to protect his own safety first, because the other mercenaries were of no use to the city lord, and naturally they would not be too difficult for them.
When Alger and his party left Ula City, it could be said that it was a big fanfare, almost making the whole city know, Ouyang Feng did this just to see the reaction of the City Lord's Mansion, using Nina, the healing magician that the City Lord has been longing for, as a bait, to see if the City Lord would intercept it, so as to know the City Lord's attitude towards the Qingyuan Guild or his own people.
Alger and a group of mercenaries rode on their horses, and under the envious eyes of the other mercenaries, they came out of Ula City and headed all the way north, Ouyang Feng and they did not see them off, but hid around the City Lord's Mansion after changing their faces, observing the movements of the City Lord's Mansion.
Everyone waited patiently, from the third pole of the sun to the nightfall, and then to the high rise of the sun, the city lord's mansion was as calm as ever, as if they didn't know that Alger had left with Nina and the others.
The most sensitive period passed, and Ouyang Feng and the others did not dare to relax, but everyone needed to rest, so they resumed the same as before, and the four of Ouyang Feng, Qingfeng, Hongsheng and Mingyue took turns to monitor, while the rest of the people all stayed in the villa to concentrate on cultivation, keeping themselves in the best condition, and ready to face the big battle that might happen at any time.
Another three days passed, and the City Lord's Mansion finally moved, but it was not aimed at Alger and Nina, but at Ouyang Feng. Early in the morning, three brightly armored guards left the City Lord's Mansion and came to Ouyang Feng's villa, and after knocking politely and cautiously, they respectfully handed over a letter of worship to the monkey who came out to open the door, saying that the City Lord asked the head of the Qingyuan Guild when he had time, and he would personally come to apologize for the fact that the Qingyuan Guild was framed a few days ago.
Seeing that the three guards spoke in a respectful tone and did not look malicious, the monkey politely took them to the living room to wait, and then hurriedly went upstairs to ask Ouyang Feng's opinion. After Ouyang Feng read the book slips such as the prayer post, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "It's finally here." After speaking, he explained a few words to the monkey.
The monkey came to the living room on the first floor and said to the three guards: "The four of us have said that the lord of the city is polite, and there is no need to apologize, but I hope we have the honor of inviting the lord and the chief steward to come and have lunch." After the guards saluted politely, they turned to leave, and couldn't wait to bring the good news back to the lord of the castle.
Sending off the guards, Ouyang Feng summoned everyone to start arranging, in view of the huge power of the city lord of Ulla, Ouyang Feng divided the men into three teams, Mingyue and Barlow stayed outside the city lord's mansion to continue to monitor the elites and masters inside, Qingfeng and Bruce were on guard near the villa, Ouyang Feng and Hongsheng, as well as Monkey, Rice Bucket, Peidi, and Elena, plus the chef and Andulan who were mobilized from the Tiger Mercenary Regiment, Laixi's two shopkeepers accompany them, making the huge villa not so empty, such a distribution, Ouyang Feng and they can understand what is happening outside at the first time, and they can respond at the first time, and once they are surrounded, they will not be wiped out, and the people outside can also wait for the opportunity to rescue.
