Return to the month before the end of the world

The Royal City Lord's Mansion has started a public bidding under the instruction of the City Lord Yang Mingyu, and the candidates for the tender will be jointly determined by Yang Mingyu and Xiao Chan.

After the news came out, the entire imperial city was boiling.

The nobles are not stupid. They know very well that as long as they can win the bid and get on this line, they will be invincible. Otherwise, they will be gradually eliminated.

The most important thing is to be able to establish a relationship with Xiao Chan. A series of things have proved that Xiao Chan's future is limitless. Only by building a good relationship with such a person can you earn more.

The only thing that made them feel distressed was that Xiao Chan had no intention of meeting them and could only come to Yang Mingyu.

Yang Mingyu felt like he was famous. In order to raise enough food, he begged his grandfather and grandma to borrow some food. Now the situation has finally changed and he is at my house today.

Fortunately, he has not lost his mind and knows that his current strength is not enough to compete with the other party, so the communication between the two parties is relatively smooth.

Yang Mingyu didn't know much about business, but fortunately Xiao Chan patiently explained it, which gave him confidence.

Faced with the olive branch offered by forces large and small, Yang Mingyu fooled around.

He knows very well what kind of people these people are. Once he gets what he wants, the first thing he will do is probably kick him away.

This also made him feel very grateful to Xiao Chan in his heart, because he was the one who benefited the most from all this. As an indispensable and important person, Xiao Chan could only benefit from a handful of benefits.

When Yang Mingyu expressed his gratitude to Xiao Chan, Xiao Chan gave a perfect answer.

"In such an environment, it is natural for humans to help each other. What's more, I also got to know Uncle Yang. My gains are not small at all."

These words made Yang Mingyu extremely happy, because he saw that Xiao Chan was a hero in the true sense, and he felt the rare respect.

"Some incidents caused some officers of the Royal City Army to betray me. Do I want to deal with them now?"

Faced with Yang Mingyu's inquiry, Xiao Chan gave a standard answer.

"This is City Lord Yang's private matter and I, as an outsider, cannot interfere in it. If Uncle Yang plans to rectify the internal affairs, now is the most suitable opportunity. But before that, I suggest you do one thing first?"

"What's going on?" Yang Mingyu asked very curiously.

Xiao Chan smiled: "Uncle Yang should know who the people behind them are. I believe they should appear in the bidding. My personal suggestion is to select them and reject them. Will they understand Uncle Yang's intentions?"

"What a great idea. As expected of a female Zhuge, that boy Zhan Beizun is really lucky to have a wife like you."

"Uncle Yang was joking, the two of us are making progress together."

In the bidding qualification review, this should have been an important but not important matter. However, no one expected that several noble forces would be eliminated at the first level.

These aristocratic forces are all very influential families in the imperial city. Unexpectedly, they were defeated at the first level.

While this incident caused an uproar among the noble forces, it also aroused strong dissatisfaction among these families, who all came to ask the city lord's palace to give them a satisfactory explanation.

Yang Mingyu's words left them speechless, and they finally understood the intention of the city lord.

"You are all the pillars of the imperial city. Naturally, I cannot target you. But during the review, we found that you had some military conflicts with the city lord's palace. This made me very embarrassed."

The nobles immediately understood what Yang Mingyu meant. They had previously gathered a group of people in the Imperial City Army in order to evade each other. These people may not be a big deal when scattered, but together they are enough to injure the Imperial City Army.

Yang Mingyu had always ignored it before because he was asking for help from the nobles, but now that offense and defense are interchanged, the matter has come to need to be dealt with.

The nobles headed by the Li family were silent. There were only two ways before them now, either to protect these people, or to give up these people and obtain greater benefits.

Back in the office, Yang Mingyu asked a question to Xiao Chan who was in a good mood.

"Do you think they would agree?"

"meeting."

"why?"

“Because the benefits of consent are greater.”

Yang Mingyu nodded slowly. The reality is so cruel. People who are worthless are trash.

Sure enough, not long after, the Li family came to visit again.

The current head of the Li family, Li Jing, first took out tens of thousands of kilograms of grain, and then implicitly expressed his intention to give up on those people, hoping that Yang Mingyu would not embarrass them later.

This was what Yang Mingyu expected, so he agreed without hesitation.

"Master Li, please rest assured. Chief Xiao told me that win-win cooperation is the way to go, but I don't want anyone to cross the line and affect the relationship between the two parties."

Li Jing heard Yang Mingyu's warning and immediately agreed, and then made a request, hoping to meet Xiao Chan.

"Master Li, it's not that I blocked it intentionally, it's just that the one who admitted that she was young was afraid of neglecting everyone, and she needs someone to make the cake bigger. Only in this way can everyone make money."

Li Jing immediately understood what Yang Mingyu meant. Xiao Chan planned to get a bigger share of the Yucheng cake, but because of his identity, he needed someone to manage Yucheng, and Yang Mingyu, as the city lord, was naturally the most suitable candidate.

Naturally, Li Jing was not satisfied with this matter. If possible, he would prefer to directly connect with Taohuayuan. By then, Yucheng would be the domain of their Li family.

But then I thought about it, this is not bad, and this is just the beginning, there may not be no opportunities for cooperation in the future.

"I took the liberty. In order to express my apology, my Li family is willing to use 20 kilograms of grain as a gift. As you know, City Master Yang, my Li family has plans in many fields. Please take care of me."

"To be honest, this matter is not something I can decide. I am responsible for providing the list. It is the one who decides on the selection. I can only say a few good words."

"That's enough. Thank you City Lord Yang for speaking up."

Li Jing immediately became excited. One of the important reasons why they were hostile to Yang Mingyu was that Yang Mingyu was not on the same side as them. Now he could not only get practical benefits, but also draw the city lord into trouble. This deal would definitely not be a loss.

After seeing Li Jing off, Yang Mingyu sat on a chair and opened the envelope left by the other party before leaving.

When he opened it, he found a list of personnel inside. Behind the personnel was also marked which force these people belonged to, and the people on the front list were all members of the Imperial City Army.
