"This is a matter for the cultivators in the whole city to discuss, and I hope that the seniors will be reluctant to make it difficult and sit down and accept the salute!" Xie Ba bowed again.

"Please sit down and receive the salute!" more than a thousand cultivators in the audience shouted in unison.

"Alas, thanks to everyone's acceptance, Meng had to reluctantly make it difficult. Qingxuzi sighed, and then sat down again.

"Subordinates, please see the city lord!" all the cultivators knelt down and bowed to worship.

It was Xie Ba and the six people who also gave a big gift to Qingxuzi.

"You don't have to be formal, please get up!" said Qingxuzi with his hands.

"Thank you, Lord of the City. Then they got up.

However, in the hearts of some people, it is not as humble as it seems.

They belong to various forces, and naturally there are also sects that do not deal with Tongzhou commercial houses, and most of these people are merchants in Jiemeng City.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Meng is entangled in important matters and has no time to stay in Jiemeng for a long time, so he needs a decision-making team to jointly take charge of major affairs in the city. What I mean is to form a Council of Elders, with the members of the Four Great Commanders, Jiang Sheng and Zhou Daoyou serving for the time being, and Commander Xie serving as the Great Elder, temporarily assuming the responsibilities of the City Lord when Meng is out.

Of course, in the future, the number of elders will be increased as appropriate, and the people who have contributed the most and contributed the most to Jiemeng City will be selected, and the city lord's mansion will formulate separate selection rules, as long as they meet the criteria, they can all be elected to the Council of Elders, I don't know what you think?"

"Obey the orders of the city lord!" everyone in the audience dared not obey.

Zhou Yang was stunned again, he was actually pulled into the Council of Elders of Jiemeng City, but he was just passing by, and he had to return to Dingbei City.

This appointment caught him a little off guard, but at this time, it was not good to save Qingxuzi's face, so he had to remain silent for the time being.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't want to be an elder in a city, but he is not ready.

With the position of elder, you can develop your own Yangtian Pavilion in Jiemeng City, and you can also take the opportunity to expand your power, which can be described as fame and fortune.

But he has always been wary of Qingxuzi, this old fox is quite scheming and calculating, and he is by no means his opponent at present.

Pulling Jiang Sheng of the Tongzhou Business Alliance into the Council of Elders can be seen some of his intentions, his purpose is to gradually control the Council of Elders, and finally control the entire city of Jiemeng.

The reason why too many people from the Shang Alliance were not brought in should be that they had just entered the realm and were not evenly matched, so it would be too conspicuous, and it would also cause dissatisfaction from many forces and the attention of the Heavenly Army Alliance.

From this point of view, Zhou Yang also figured it out, how can he say that he is also a native of the extreme north of Hezhou, and he is a fellow countryman, so he tried his best to win himself into the Presbyterian Church, but he wanted to stand in the same boat with him, and even fully fell to Tongzhou Commercial Bank.

And his last sentence, whoever contributes the most to Jiemeng City in the future and has the greatest credit will be able to be elected to the Council of Elders.

So how to evaluate the size of the credit, he is not the only one who has the final say.

In this way, it won't be long before he can pull more people who are inclined to the Tongzhou Business Alliance into the Council of Elders, so that he can fully control the Council of Elders and control Jiemeng City.

Sure enough, it's an old fox!

"Okay, that's it. Next, Elder Jiang talked about the Tongzhou Business Alliance's aid to the construction of Jiemeng. Qingxuzi said again.

"Thank you for your attention, and thank you for your love. At the beginning of the next realm, I hope you will take care of it. This time I came to this high-level attached city, and I was ordered by the Tongzhou Business Alliance to bring one billion spirit stones and materials worth one billion spirit stones to help build the ...... of Mengcheng."

Jiang Sheng's words were amazing, he actually brought a full amount of goods worth two billion spirit stones, and the Tongzhou Business Alliance was really generous, it seemed that he really wanted to invest heavily in Jiemeng City.

Next, Jiang Sheng talked about some ideas for rebuilding the city, but he stood in the position of Jiemeng City, as if everything was for the sake of Jiemeng, and this person entered the role of an elder very quickly.

"Well, what Elder Jiang said is true, the realm is rebuilt, and only two billion spirit stones are far from enough. Not only the reconstruction of the destroyed buildings, as well as the formation of the city walls, etc., but also the huge losses of this battle.

The consumption of the spiritual light cannon alone is about to empty the treasury. Therefore, the merchants of Jiemeng City must also come up with some spirit stones and materials, and only by working together can we rebuild Jiemeng, rejuvenate it, and let you have a lot of spirit stones to earn again, which is also the responsibility of all of us here.

I believe that with your efforts and your witnesses, Jiemeng City will be more prosperous, more prosperous, and more brilliant than before! Qingxuzi added.

Xie Ba also talked about some details of the donation.

"Do you want to donate spirit stones and materials?"

"Whose shop is destroyed, who will rebuild it, and they have to sweep the snow in front of the door, and the city lord's mansion only builds the city wall and the public part, so why do you still let us dig out the spirit stone?"

"Yes, two billion spirit stones plus the treasury inventory, it should be enough to repair the city wall. Isn't it a bit ...... for us to lose so much more?"

Some merchants were a little dissatisfied, and began to whisper again.

"If you don't agree, if you don't agree, you can bring it up to the city lord! The city lord has said it, you can speak freely and express your opinions. Someone else said so.

"If you want to say it, I don't dare. ”

"It's still true, if you don't dare to say it, then go for it!"

"But ......" merchants have bitter faces, as if they have died of their families.

In the next agenda, Commander Yao Daren continued to talk about some employment issues, which attracted bursts of discussion among merchants.

The last thing is to reward those who have made meritorious contributions, which is also what Zhou Yang is most concerned about.

Before the outbreak of the war, many people fled through the teleportation array, including some merchants, and the shop stalls they left behind became prizes.

There are also cultivators who died in battle, as well as the property left by merchants, etc., and this part has also become a prize.

The City Lord's Mansion moved very quickly, and the head of the Mansion had already calculated these things clearly, and even the distribution plan had been prepared.

Zhou Yang's eight million spirit stones could not be recovered, but what was exchanged for them was the façade of twenty shops in the central area, as well as a mansion allocated to him, and the land that was rewarded to him.

The site was outside the central city, but it wasn't too remote, about two streets away, but it was so badly damaged that it had to be rebuilt by itself.

However, this has made Zhou Yang's heart happy, only the twenty shops in the downtown area of the center can't be bought back even ten or eight million, and there is also a mansion and a lot of land.

This time it's really profitable!

After Qingxuzi left, the meeting lasted for another three full hours before it was dismissed.

A few families were happy and a few were worried, such as the leaders of the four major commanders and the city guards, all of them couldn't keep their mouths together.

And the merchants who did not participate in the war were bleeding heavily one by one, not only to rebuild their own industries, but also to donate a large amount of spirit stone materials, but they could only accept it head-on, otherwise they would be expelled from the Boundary Meng City.

Merchants who participated in the war or sent people to participate in the war were also forcibly donated, but they were compensated a lot of land.

Of course, it is a site that needs to be rebuilt, but it is much stronger than other merchants.

It was getting late, and Zhou Yang returned directly to the inn.

He didn't care about continuing to heal his wounds, but he couldn't wait to check all the seized storage bags, because he lacked spirit stones, and he lacked a large number of spirit stones to rebuild two streets.

There was no other way to obtain it, and Zhou Yang could only hope for these loot.

And Murong Yue, Mu San, Mu Wu and others also handed over their storage bags to Zhou Yang.

The first thing Zhou Yang checked was the high-grade storage bag of the fake Dan bandit leader.

It is really worthy of being the leader of the bandits, only the master of Jindan is worthy of using high-end goods, and he actually has it, not to mention the materials, just this storage bag is worth two or three million spirit stones.

The things in the high-grade storage bag did not disappoint him, five fourth-grade spirit stones, five hundred third-grade spirit stones, and eighty thousand second-grade spirit stones.

At the official price, there are more than 26 million spirit stones alone, and as for all kinds of elixirs, materials, ores, magic weapons, talismans, etc., they are also worth at least 30 million spirit stones.

How many cultivators have to be robbed of this wealth to amass!

And what surprised Zhou Yang even more was that there was a magic weapon in the storage bag!

The magic weapon can only be refined by a Jindan-level refiner, even if it is the most ordinary and rubbish, it will cost nearly 20 million spirit stones.

With the addition of other storage bags, the total price is about 90 million spirit stones.

Yes, it's really good, it seems that if you want to rob it, you have to rob the bandits, they are all rich and oily, and it is worth the risk.

He is not ready to sell pills and other things, and there are more people under him, and he needs a large number of pills to improve his cultivation.

Especially the thirty-sixth squad, the overall strength is still very weak at present, with these pills, he is confident that in a short period of time, Tiehu, Pu Zheng and Hu Zhiran will increase their strength by a large margin.

Although there are more than 90 million spirit stones, the territory allocated to him is within the range of two streets, and if they are all rebuilt, it will obviously not be enough. But that's the only way to go, how much can be built.

Moreover, in the Yangtian store in Lingcheng, a large amount of spirit stones come in every day, and some can still be transferred over after a while.

"Father, Jiemeng City actually survived, it's really hateful!" Just when Zhou Yang was secretly thinking to himself, in the Flying Immortal City City Lord's Mansion, the face of the purple-clothed young man was very ugly.

"Father, you can't blame those bandits for being useless, Qingxuzi is the biggest variable, he has actually reached the mid-Jindan realm, and there is the support of the Tongzhou Business Alliance behind him, it is strange that those bandits are undefeated!" A middle-aged man who looked similar to the young man in purple said in a deep voice.

He is the eldest son of Gui Luan, the city lord of Feixian City, and he is a tyrant.

This person looks like he is five big and three coarse, and it seems that he can only fight and kill, but judging from his speech and demeanor, it is by no means as simple as it seems.

"Yu'er, you have to learn from your eldest brother in case of trouble, use your brain more, first calm down and think more about why, what to do, and what kind of consequences will be produced, etc., this is the sign of a mature cultivator, understand?" said the white-haired city lord Gui Luan earnestly.

"I understand Father. Guiyu agreed, but he was very dissatisfied in his heart, what the eldest brother said was right, what I said was wrong, why!
