It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 642

The fleet took the prisoners and returned to Shuofang City with the spoils in just one day. The spies had already sent the news back in advance, and He Shen took someone to wait at the port.

When the fleet arrived, he immediately took people to unload the grain and sent it to the granary, and the prisoners also needed to be properly placed. To do these things, Toad City already has considerable experience, and does not need Cheng Dalei to intervene.

Cheng Dalei returned to the City Lord's Mansion, and someone prepared hot water. Under Cheng Dalei's painstaking management, a dead city in Shuofang City gradually became alive. After bathing and changing clothes, Cheng Dalei washed away the killing spirit of the trip.

He changed into a white robe, came to the hall, and saw Yang Guozhong, Yang Xiaomei and Shan Xiongxin waiting here. Seeing Cheng Dalei coming in, the two immediately stood up.

"Sit, sit." Cheng Dalei waved his hand and said, "Mr. Yang, now that the bandits in Heifengzhai have been eliminated, and your blood revenge has been avenged, would you like to stay by my side and do things?"

Yang Guozhong didn't really care about killing his father, it was just an excuse. But this time, seeing Cheng Dalei's strength, he was already slightly moved. What's more, now he can't leave if he wants to.

So, he had already made a decision in his heart. At this moment, Cheng Dalei asked, and he folded his fists and said, "I would like to follow the leader of the family to serve as a dog and horse."

"It's good, it's good." Cheng Dalei nodded with satisfaction: "Since you are willing to stay and do things, I will send you to Toad City tomorrow. You will be familiar with the things of Toad City as soon as possible, and the internal affairs of Toad City will be up to you in the future. manage."

Yang Guozhong didn't listen to this, he was shocked when he heard this. Even if he just joined Cheng Dalei's team, he understands the importance of Toad City. In contrast, the foundation of Shuofang City was not stable, and Toad City was Cheng Dalei's base camp. Now that he has not achieved an inch, Cheng Dalei has entrusted himself with such a big responsibility. What kind of trust is this.

The so-called scholar died for the confidant. In this chaotic world, everyone who has some skills also wants to stir up some storms.

"The big boss treats me like this, and the subordinates will live up to it."

Yang Guozhong called himself a "subordinate", and he was sincere in his intention to assist Cheng Dalei. Cheng Dalei did not know Yang Guozhong's mental journey. He knew in his heart that Toad City was on the right track, as long as it didn't mess up, there would be no trouble.

And there are too many things to do in Shuofangcheng, what is needed is Heshen instead of Yang Guozhong.

Yang Guozhong and Yang Xiaomei retreated, Axi and Shan Xiongxin were still standing in the hall, and Cheng Dalei's eyes swept over them.

This action can be said to be a great victory, if the reward for merit is everyone's share. But this action can't be said to be perfect, otherwise he won't let him escape. It is a hidden danger after all.

Cheng Dalei's eyes fell on Shan Xiongxin. This time, he meant to experience him, and he would be entrusted with important tasks in the future. However, Shan Xiongxin's performance was really unsatisfactory. He has the courage of a hero, but he does not have the talent to sit in the central army.

If there is reward, there will be punishment; if there is no punishment, there will be no power. Cheng Dalei thought for a moment and said, "Shan Xiongxin, do you know what's wrong?"

Shan Xiongxin was already very ashamed, so he kept his head down and didn't speak. At this moment Cheng Dalei had already asked, he nodded awkwardly, but did not speak.

"Since you already know, I won't say anything. You start with the captain of the city gate and guard the city gate of Shuofang City. I will give you other tasks in the future."

Shan Xiongxin clasped his fists and agreed, feeling ashamed.

It was late at night, and Cheng Dalei was a little tired after arranging these things after returning. He yawned and went back to the house to rest.

Axi Shan Xiongxin generally dispersed, and most of the others were rewarded, and everyone had smiles on their faces, only Shan Xiongxin had a bitter face.

When he left the City Lord's Mansion, he felt even more shabby when the cold wind blew. I wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to perform, but in the end, I let Hun Jianglong escape from his hands, so it is no wonder that Cheng Dalei asked himself to guard the city gate.

But this breath, he really can't swallow. He is also a dignified man, but after losing such an adult, how can he raise his eyebrows in Toad City in the future.

When he was ruthless, he got up from where he fell. A man can't be a man with his tail between his tails all his life.

He returned to the barracks, picked a waist knife and put it on his body, pulled out his mount, hung the golden-topped Zaoyang lance, and quietly left Shuofang City alone.

Thinking clearly in my heart, I decided to bring back the head of Hun Jianglong in order to clear the shame on myself, so that I could raise my head to be a human being.

Cheng Dalei only got the news the next morning. He just said that Shan Xiongxin was missing at 1:00 a.m. in the morning, along with his weapon mount.

Axi said: "The big boss, Shan Xiongxin shouldn't be against it, right?"

Cheng Dalei frowned, Shan Xiongxin didn't even leave a letter before he left, so he naturally couldn't guess Shan Xiongxin's intention. However, after he scolded him a few words in front of his own people, he left the camp. Such a hot temper is really hard to control.

"See who in the city is on good terms with him, ask him what words he can leave before he leaves, and send his brothers out to visit. Don't let him be deceived by others."

"Yes, this subordinate will do it."

"By the way, the police sent the Yang family brothers and sisters to Toad City. They must protect their safety on the way, and don't let the two of them have an accident."

"Yes."

Axi promised to go, and bumped into Heshen when they went out. Cheng Dalei was startled when he saw He Shen's dark blue eyes: "Master He, shouldn't you have slept all night last night?"

"I'm too busy to count the supplies, so I don't have time to sleep. As soon as I'm done, I'll report to the boss." Although He Shen had not slept all night, he was very excited and didn't look tired at all.

Cheng Dalei sees it, this is a complete workaholic. He nodded and turned on the leader's halo. Facing He Shen, he still didn't dare to be careless.

"It's been hard work with your lord. I have something to discuss with your lord."

"It's just the boss's order, it's not negotiable."

Cheng Dalei nodded: "I'm going to hand over Shuofang City to Master He for full management."

"This..." He Shen opened his eyes wide: "Where's Toad City?"

"Toad City, I chose another person to do it. Of course, I won't be able to do well with your lord, but Shuofang City is at the time of hiring people, so I still trust your lord more."

If He Shen chooses, he is naturally willing to choose Shuofang City. After all, there are too many people in Toad City ahead of him. But in Shuofang City, he can take full control of his own power and use his talents to the fullest. He just didn't expect that Cheng Dalei trusted him so much.

He Shen clasped his fists in a salute, and said firmly, "My subordinates will definitely live up to the trust of the master."

Cheng Dalei nodded: "I won't stay here for long, and you will be the master of this Shuofang city in the future."
