Chapter 184

After treating Lu Yan well, Xiao Ran did not choose to formally hand over the affairs immediately, but he used the next three days to observe Linjiang City by himself.

During his observation, he saw many things, including the unscrupulousness of the four big families, the domineering of the Shuanghu Gang, the upright but helpless policemen in the city, and the different lives of the people in the city.

On the fourth day, Xiao Ran, who had prepared everything, packed his things, took out the token and contract of Linjiang City from the system space and put them away, and went to the City Lord's Mansion accompanied by Yingzi and Xiao Xin.

Arriving at the gate of the city lord's mansion, several yamen servants at the gate watched the three people approaching, and stopped one of the leaders from speaking.

"The city lord's mansion is an important place, and idlers are not allowed to approach it at will. Who are you?"

Seeing such a conscientious yamen servant, Xiao Ran felt a little relieved, after all, he will be his subordinates from now on.

I saw Xiao Ran took out the token of the city lord from his bosom, showed it to the leading yamen servant, and spoke.

"I am the new City Lord of Linjiang City, here to hand over related affairs!"

The yamen servants at the gate were a little surprised when they saw the token of the city lord and what Xiao Ran said. After all, they knew that the old city lord already had one. They didn't expect the new city lord to arrive today. The leading yamen servant hurried forward to observe.

After observing for a while, the leading yamen servant found that it was indeed the token of the city lord, so he immediately brought others to kneel down on one knee and said to Xiao Ran.

"The subordinates welcome the new Lord City Lord. I don't know what the City Lord has offended when he comes, so please ask the City Lord to make amends!"

Looking at the yamen servants kneeling on one knee to plead guilty, Xiao Ran was even more satisfied with their performance, and asked him to get up.

"Get better! What's your name? Who is handling the affairs in the City Lord's Mansion now!"

The leading yamen servant just stood up from the ground, and after hearing Xiao Ran's question, he hurriedly answered.

"Reporting to the city lord, the villain's name is Zhang Qiang, because the previous city lord has already left, so Master Zheng is handling affairs in the mansion now, do you need me to pass it on?"

As soon as Xiao Ran heard that Zheng Xu was dealing with affairs in the City Lord's Mansion, this was exactly in his favor, so he ignored what Zhang Qiang, the yamen servant, just said to him.

"There's no need to pass it on! Just take us to Master Zheng's office!"

After Xiao Ran finished speaking, Zhang Qiang took the order and asked others to continue guarding, while he led the three of them towards Zheng Xu's office.

Zheng Xu's office is the office hall of the City Lord's Mansion. Although the old City Lord has already left and the new City Lord has not yet arrived, Zheng Xu takes care of everything in the city.

He could handle official business at the main seat in the hall, but he didn't do that, he just sat in his own seat.

His subordinates also asked him about this matter, and his answer was:

No matter what I am doing now, my job is only to be a master in Linjiang City, not the city lord, one must recognize his own status!
Zheng Xu was sitting in the hall to handle official business in the city, when he suddenly saw the servant Zhang Qiang leading three people into the hall, Zheng Xu looked behind Zhang Qiang.

Looking at this, Zheng Xu found that the person behind was the Master Zhao who had treated Lu Yan well. Although he was a little surprised why he came here, after all, he was kind to him.

Seeing Xiao Ran enter the room, Zheng Xu hurriedly got up and walked over and said to Xiao Ran.

"Sir, I didn't expect that we would meet again today. I don't know what's the matter with your arrival today!"

Seeing Zheng Xu who came over to greet him first, Xiao Ran smiled faintly, and then replied.

"Master Zheng, I said we will meet again, don't you think this is fulfilled? I came here today to discuss business with you!"

"Business?" As soon as Xiao Ran's words came out, even Zheng Xu, who usually claims to have no plans, was taken aback for a moment, wondering what business is a doctor like Xiao Ran here for?Can't help but mutter it!
Seeing Zheng Xu's appearance, Zhang Qiang at the side also saw that his master did not know Xiao Ran's real identity, so he quickly reminded Zheng Xu.

"Master Zheng, this is the newly appointed Lord City Lord, and he is here today to handle handover matters!"

As soon as Zhang Qiang finished speaking, Zheng Xu also understood that he could come over. He also heard the news that someone had auctioned the ownership of Linjiang City in the past few days, and he didn't expect it to come so soon.

At this moment, he thought about Xiao Ran's arrangement to go to his own house for medical treatment a few days ago, and he knew that he had been tricked at that time.

Zheng Xu figured everything out, a little dumbfounded, invited Xiao Ran and the other three to sit down, and then spoke.

"I don't think I should call you Mr. Zhao anymore?"

Seeing Zheng Xu's expression, Xiao Ran also knew that he had thought everything through, so he said to him.

"It is said that Mr. Zheng is exhaustive. It seems that what he said is correct. Indeed, my surname is not Zhao. My real name is Xiao Ran. I didn't reveal my real identity for some reasons before, so I hope Mr. Zheng will not care about it!"

Zheng Xu didn't care about Li Ran's praise either, he gave a wry smile and asked Li Ran.

"I think today is not only the handover of business, but also the time for me to pay the consultation fee?"

Zheng Xu's reaction was beyond Xiao Ran's expectation, he didn't expect Zheng Xu to bring this matter up so directly, and asked him with a smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Then Master Zheng, what do you think? I don't know whether you will pay the consultation fee or not? If you pay, will you be sincere and regret it?"

Zheng Xu answered Xiao Ran's question firmly.

"Of course I have to pay! You must know that the price of this consultation fee is the recovery of the health of my beloved in my life. I will never regret everything I do for her!

Master Zheng Xu of Linjiang City pays homage to the lord! "

Seeing Zheng Xu bowing directly after finishing speaking, Xiao Ran hurriedly helped him up.

"Master Zheng please hurry up! We don't need these vain gifts between us in the future! Will Master Zheng be needed for the affairs of the city in the future?"

For Xiao Ran's compliment, Zheng Xu also responded in a formulaic way, but in the end he still asked a question.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord, for your consideration! I have another question. If I don't ask it, I feel a little uneasy. I don't know what will happen to Lord City Lord if I don't pay the consultation fee?"

Hearing Zheng Xu's question, Xiao Ran knew that in his heart he still felt a little unhappy because of being calculated. Xiao Ran didn't speak, but answered him with practical actions.
In the meantime, Xiao Ran unreservedly released all his cultivation bases, and immediately set off a wave of anger in the hall.

Zhang Qingxi and Yingzi, who were already in the Nascent Soul stage, could still stand firmly because of the situation that Xiao Ran deliberately avoided.

On the other hand, Zheng Xu and Zhang Qiang had already been crushed to the ground by Xiao Ran's powerful force, and there was no room for resistance at all.

This was the first time that Xiao Ran released all his aura, not only to answer Zheng Xu, but also to intimidate everyone in Linjiang City. He wanted the ghosts and monsters in the city to announce the arrival of his new city lord, Xiao Ran.
