Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

In the study room.

Shi Anan looked around and saw that the decorations were very simple. It could be seen that Zhao Zhong was a frugal person.

Zhao Zhong sat down at the main seat and said, "You guys take a seat first, and by the way, tell me what business you want to do with me?"

Shi Anan found a random seat and sat down, looking at Zhao Zhong, and replied: "I heard that Cangwu City is short of food. If I can provide food for Cangwu City, can we do this business?"

Zhao Zhong sat up straight, stared at Shi Anan and asked, "What do you want?"

Shi Anan smiled lightly: "The right to speak in Cangwu City."

Zhao Zhong looked at her meaningfully: "What a big tone, do you want to be the lord of Cangwu City?"

It is undeniable that Cangwu City is indeed short of food. Shi Anan’s words that he could provide food really made him excited.

But the right to speak for Cangwu City is equivalent to asking him to hand over Cangwu City directly to her to make the decision. What is the difference between this and asking him to abdicate? No one in power would agree to such a condition.

Shi Anan did not deny that she wanted to be the city lord, and slowly explained: "The current situation of Cangwu City can be said to be internal and external troubles, I am sure you know that. If I were allowed to be the city lord, I would not only be able to provide food for the people, but the war outside would not be a big deal to me."

If a person in power like County Magistrate Wu heard her words, he would definitely think that she was crazy. How could a woman have the courage to say to a city lord: You step down, I will be the city lord.

She wasn't even given a chance to speak before being thrown out.

But Shi Anan obviously saw that Zhao Zhong was not the same kind of person as County Magistrate Wu, so her words were also somewhat tentative. If she could directly become the city lord and transfer Cangwu City to her name, then she would definitely not be hindered from using the city gift package.

But if it is just a cooperative mode, then it depends on the system's judgment, which is not very reliable.

After hearing Shi Anan's words, Zhao Zhong was not angry. Just as Shi Anan thought, he became the city lord mainly for the people. If he was greedy for power, why would he make himself so hard and do thankless tasks?

but--

"How can I believe your words? How do I know if you are really capable of solving these problems?" Zhao Zhong said doubtfully.

Shi Anan chuckled and asked, "Master Zhao, have you never been to Guangming County?"

Zhao Zhong nodded: "I don't have time to go myself. I sent someone to go before, but it seems like they were kicked out by you guys?"

"Ahem." Shi Anan coughed to cover up the awkwardness and said embarrassedly, "The person who came here at the beginning was Shi Zhengde. He was very rude at the time, so I had him driven away."

Zhao Zhong glanced at her and said nothing, only asking: "Will going to Guangming County prove what you said?"

Shi Anan nodded confidently: "Of course, as long as you have been to Guangming County, you will know that what I said is absolutely true."

She was not bragging. Anyone from this dynasty would be shocked by the current development of Guangming County, not to mention comparing it with Cangwu City.

Do you really think that her reputation of being favored by God (system) is just a rumor?

Seeing how confident she was, Zhao Zhong couldn't help but feel a little curious about Guangming County. He had heard rumors about Guangming County, but rumors were always more exaggerated than reality. Even though he believed that Guangming County did have some extraordinary features, if it involved gods or miracles, it would be hard for normal people to believe it.

But looking at Shi Anan's reaction, it seems that the rumors are not false?

Recently, Zhao Zhong has indeed been worried about the bleak future of Cangwu City. Regardless of whether it is true or not, he has to verify it personally.

So Zhao Zhong readily agreed: "In that case, I will go with you to Guangming County. I hope you won't let me down."

Shi Anan was very happy to see that she had convinced Zhao Zhong, but she was afraid that he didn't believe it and was unwilling to go to Guangming County. If he had been there, he would definitely not think that she was talking nonsense. Shi Anan was so confident about Guangming County!

Because the food shortage problem in Cangwu City needed to be solved as soon as possible, and the King of the Northern Territory might attack at any time, Zhao Zhong did not waste time and planned to take An An and Xiao Yi to Guangming County that night.

Mu Shan, who was waiting outside the city gate, was not happy when he saw the two people coming out before he heard the news that his young lady was planning to take the former lord of Cangwu City to Guangming County in order to become the lord of Cangwu City.

He was so shocked that his jaw dropped. He thought that the girl came here only to escort Shi Zhengde and others and to settle accounts with the Lord of Cangwu City. He didn't expect that the young lady was so aggressive and wanted to usurp the throne directly... No, is Lord Zhao so easy to talk to?

Although Mu Shan was surprised, he acted quickly. Within a few days, Shi Anan and others returned to Guangming County.

Standing outside the gate of Guangming County and seeing the towering city walls, Zhao Zhong began to believe the rumors about Guangming County even more.

When he followed Shi Anan into the city, the surprise in his eyes became even more intense.

It’s nothing, Guangming County is just great!

Walking among the crowd, looking at the bustling streets and the people's eyes full of hope for life, Zhao Zhong suddenly felt very emotional.

It has been a long time since he saw such a world full of fireworks.

Ever since the first severe earthquake struck the capital, the whole world seemed to have fallen into infinite disasters. The court order collapsed, the people were living in misery, and the people gradually turned from pain to numbness.

His lifelong ambition was to make the country prosperous and the people strong, and to ensure that the people had enough food and clothing. Unfortunately, his ability was limited, and he could only protect the small city of Cangwu, and he was unable to fulfill his promise to ensure that the people had enough food and clothing.

But Guangming County is different. The street vendors, the ladies bargaining for things, the passers-by, and the lively and active children all seem so lively. You can tell at a glance that this is the spirit that can only be nurtured by an affluent life.

In fact, most of the people here are literate, which is incredible to people today. This place is like a paradise.

Because he was attracted by the lively atmosphere, Zhao Zhong didn't even notice some magical places in Guangming County for a while. Shi Anan didn't disturb him, but let him experience it slowly by himself. After all, this is the only way to experience surprises, right?

Zhao Zhong stayed in Guangming County for three consecutive days. He was obviously enjoying himself during these three days. He visited the bustling commercial streets in Guangming County, visited the free tuition schools, the hospital with magical structures and equipment, the amazing cross-lake bridge, the high-speed buses, and the orchards that did not conform to the seasonal growth rules...

Many things he had never seen or eaten appeared before his eyes one by one. The rumors about Guangming County turned out to be true!

At this point, Zhao Zhong had already made up his mind. If Shi An'an could turn Cangwu City into Guangming County... No! As long as he could only achieve half of that, he would be willing to give up his position and let Shi An'an be the city lord!

But he didn't expect that Guangming County would give him more surprises than these!
