Chapter 35 Nangong Dongpeng Li Mengru
The main gate of Fengshi City is open to the north, and there is also an east gate, in addition, there is no provenance, the northeast area of the city and the subordinate southeast area belong to the Li family's sphere of influence, and in the northwest generation, it belongs to the Nangong family's sphere of influence, the two families account for the majority, and most of the middle families are located in the southeast and south area.

However, in the southwest, there are few forces involved, and there is only one reason, that is, because the natural conditions here are too poor for any force to intervene, and it is also not suitable for any commercial action. It's always been one of the borderlands. Left to waste.
But at this time, when the moon was thick, there was a group of people who were working overnight to clear the large areas of wild grass and mud here, and the original watery land had been reduced by half, and there were constantly wooden carts coming and going, transporting the weeds and mud removed from here to the outside of the city. It's a busy picture.
It can be seen that in the outer areas that have been clearly outed, some of the houses that have been built are full of the word "Li" with a big bucket written on them, and there are constantly patrolling personnel around them, and they all seem to be extraordinary and on high alert.
Obviously, under the prospect of this development, every inch of land in Wind Stone City is absolutely valuable, and this southwest couple, which once became a borderless land, has also become hard to find, this is a territory where strength is respected, as long as you have the strength to stand on the territory, then you are a strong one.
If the Li family can think of these aspects, then the other families can naturally think of it, but their movements are a little slow.
At night, the torches around suddenly flickered a few times, and there was a tense atmosphere and feeling on the originally quiet ground, except for those workers who were still working hard, everyone else was instantly in good spirits.
And in the outer area of this territory, from the room just now, I don't know when a person came out, standing with his hands in his hands, dressed in a light blue robe, at a glance it was the kind of superior strength, staring straight at the endless dark night ahead, as if there was some fierce beast there.
"It seems that the Li family is really very prescient, and it is really admirable to start construction in the southwest so early. "The person who came was an extremely young man, and unlike the consul of the Li family at this time, there was a domineering and unruly aura on him. After he walked into the construction site, there were a lot of baggage and personnel one after another. There is also the same construction force.
"Nangong family, is this going to be robbed?" Seeing this, a discerning person knew at a glance that the person who came was not good, and he came here with so many people, or at such a time, and what was even more sad was that the person who came was still a family that had been with them all the time. You can see what is at stake. Naturally, you don't have to bother with anything.
"Hehe, where are the words, my Nangong family is just here to get back what belongs to our family, how dare you be disrespectful to Jiang Ran's predecessors, Jiang Ran's predecessors are one of the few combat power in this Wind Stone City, and they have a lot of influence, and the younger generations dare not make a mistake in their later lives. In the face of Jiang Ran's reproach, this young man did not have the slightest timidity, but spoke in accordance with the rules and regulations, without any confusion, he can be regarded as a character, although he expressed some humble words, but the actual taste is really difficult to side.
"What do you call your things?" The Nangong family and the Li family have wanted to hold each other in Fengshi City for many years, and they are very clear about the strength of the two families, and they are so bold and bold to come here, it is obvious that it is not a rash thing, since it is not a demonic thing, they have their own reliance, and this reliance is not on guard before it is revealed.
"Senior Jiang is really sensible, as we all know, you and I are the two major power families in this Wind Stone City, they have been fighting with each other for many years, and a large area in the city also has your own jurisdiction, and only this southwest couple, thousands of acres of land is still borderless, if it was before, it was naturally nothing, and now the development of the Darong Empire is old, and the business opportunities are unlimited, the Li family is just because they arrived here first to swallow this big cake, is it a bit unreasonable?" The person who came spoke unhurriedly, methodically, and looked at the people on this side without the slightest fear. It can be regarded as a character in this Wind Stone City.
As he spoke, out of behind him came the stewards of the other families in Wind Stone City, these people they usually had some contact, and the purpose of appearing at this time was also very clear, that is, they also agreed with the Nangong family's proposition.
"What about what do you think?" The current situation does not allow him to make the slightest mistake, this is no longer about the ownership of a few small pieces of land, but the power of the entire Wind Stone City, and the stakes are clear to anyone who is a consul. Jiang Ran just glanced at these so-called former middle forces who came with the Nangong family. The spearhead of the problem was aimed at the Nangong family at this time.
"The seniors laughed, I, Nangong Dongpeng, am just a late junior, and I don't dare to ask for anything in front of the seniors, so let others talk about the pros and cons of this. "It turns out that this person is Nangong Dongpeng, he is one of the few genius teenagers in the Nangong family, according to legend, he was born with extraordinary insight and courage, and has always been known for his intelligence.
"Others?" Jiang Ran's brows furrowed, and he slowly looked at the so-called talker who slowly walked out of the opposite team, the Nangong family was unwilling to clash head-on with the Li family, but instead brought out a so-called person with weight in speaking, and he was the figure behind the scenes, and he took advantage of the fisherman, so the weight of this character would at least be recognized by them.
Sure enough, the bad premonition in Jiang Ran's heart appeared, the person who came was none other than the city lord of Wind Stone City, the nominal leader of the Great Rong Empire governing Wind Stone City, when to plan, when to develop, and how to develop in Wind Stone City, all of which came from the mouth of this adult, and he directly ran through the purpose of Great Glory.
However, for a long time, Wind Stone City has not encountered the direct control of the Darong Central, so this so-called city lord is also weak in this Wind Stone City, which is respected for its strength, and no one cares about it. But things are no longer the case now. At present, the resources for the planning and development of the entire Wind Stone City are directly in their hands, at least on the surface.
And if a family has taken the lead in grasping this lifeline, then the trade-offs and fairness will become tilted, especially when this kind of big interests and big events are highlighted. And this does not seem to be good news for the Li family, who have already started construction in the southwest.
"Lord of the City!" No matter which family it is, respect for such a control body such as a city lord on the surface must be absolutely given. For this so-called city lord, any force may be able to ignore him in their hearts, but they must not tear their faces openly. Therefore, this voice of the city lord is definitely sincere and serious.
"Commander Jiang, don't come unharmed!"
"Don't dare, Jiang deserves it!"
"Since it has come to this, then I will say something, the Nangong family and the Li family have made great contributions to the development of Wind Stone City, and they are all indispensable heroes, now is the time when Wind Stone City needs to develop, and now this area in the southwest is considered a borderless land on the surface, since it is a borderless land, then the power should be the Darong Empire, the empire wants to establish some basic equipment boundaries in case of emergency, and let the Nangong family dispose of it!"
"Oh, is that what the city lord means?" Jiang Ran glanced at it with interest, at this time, the city lord of the Zhengsheng Garden, the respect on his face before also disappeared, when to show what, how to behave, know, and do it, is the character.
"The Nangong family is located in the northwest, and they are more familiar with this territory, and they are also more familiar with the operation, and if they want to re-establish some projects here, the Nangong family, which is familiar with the construction, should be more handy. ”
"Oh, what the city lord means is that my Li family in this area is in vain, right?" No matter who it is, when facing such a robbery incident, there will be a lot of anger, but Jiang Ran can really be calm, and speak and discuss calmly, which shows that he has the courage to be angry.
"What, does the Li family want to disobey the will of the empire?" The city lord's voice was suddenly a little too high, not that he was not afraid of the Li family's strength, but that he was already riding a tiger.
The scene suddenly became much colder. There is a smell of gunpowder.
"Wait, Lord City Lord, let me say a word" Jiang Ran knew that it was definitely not this city lord who was a little obscene in front of him but pretended to be very tall, but the young talent Nangong Dongpeng in the back. And he was directly inserted between them like this, "You and I have always been at loggerheads, and now if this southeast even boundary is monopolized by my Nangong family, it will naturally be rude, so let's ask the city lord to promise, this southwest land still has half of my two families each taking half of their own politics, so that what the Li family does is their own family's capital, and they will eventually benefit, and it is also a great contribution to the development of this Wind Stone City, and my two families will not hurt the harmony!"
After saying this, no one dared to speak, and the position in the hearts of the young man in front of him was once again improved, and he was able to get his family's things from the opponent's hands without blood, which was very rare, and he could send the things he got to attack and defend, and he didn't take anything, which was even more rare.
"Well, since the young master of Nangong is so generous, then according to what he said, the two of you will jointly undertake the construction here" The city lord seemed to be extremely enthusiastic and happy, and he was busy getting things done. And without soliciting a force that could affect his life and death.
And in this decision-making process, Jiang Ran did not participate in the slightest, did not express anything, just quietly watched such a self-directed and self-acted drama.
"What does Commander Jiang think?" Fortunately, it was the young master of Nangong who had the foresight, and he did not forget to ask the opinion of this equivalent strength, although he had his own direction in mind.
"Thank you for the generosity of the young master of Nangong, but, for such a big thing, Jiang is still not able to make his own opinions, why don't you ask the city lord and the young master of Nangong later, I need to ask the master of the family to know the decision, okay?"
"What, it's okay to give it up?" Before the words were finished, before the main person could answer, someone behind him was anxious to start the evaluation.
"How do you speak, dare to be disrespectful to Commander Jiang, pull me out and beat me with eighty sticks!" Nangong Dongpeng's majestic voice instantly made the place silent again, and this made people gradually smell the smell of gunpowder.
"Nangong Gongzi is so majestic!" A very soft voice came from the room behind him, and when he heard it, it was a woman, and it made people feel like a spring breeze. The voice seemed a little abrupt in this silent night, and it was a little unusable.
"It turned out to be Miss Li, rude. Obviously, Nangong Dongpeng's eyebrows condensed a trace of solemnity, and said in the direction of the room.
"Mengru is just a woman, how can she compare to the majesty of Nangong Gongzi, don't dare!" Although the words are quite respectful, but they have always only heard her voice and not seen her, and this so-called respect can only be put in quotation marks. "The heart of the Nangong family, Mengru has received it in her heart, and she has thanked Mengru in advance. It's just that I hope that the city lord will agree to the little girl's request. ”
Obviously, the city lord under this sentence subconsciously glanced at Nangong Dongpeng, and this small action was discovered by Jiang Ran attentively, of course, this is a very bad preview.
"Girl, please. ”
"I have the courage to hope that the city lord can divide the boundary of this southwestern couple to all the prestigious families in this Wind Stone City, that is, the whole city of Wind Stone City, then everyone is responsible and everyone has a share, how can I let us swallow this place alone because of the great business of my two families, wouldn't it make people gossip, thinking that the city lord's decision is uneven or that there is something disrespectful about my two families, isn't that even more humiliating to the empire that the Lord said?"
