Let's start by analyzing the sun

Xie You went straight to Fang Qinghuai and quickly said, "Director Cheng is preparing a banquet for the Grand Governor at 7 PM. Please have the Fang family prepare a snake soup feast."

Fang Qinghuai was stunned for a moment: "7 PM? That's so soon!"

Both the Director and the Grand Governor were big figures in the city. Preparing a feast to entertain such important people in just four hours was an immense pressure.

Fang Qinghuai immediately reacted and said quickly, "I absolutely did not mean to complain about Director Cheng."

Xie You smiled slightly, her words quite polite: "It is indeed rather urgent, and I ask the family head to bear with it. However, Director Cheng is a gentle person, and even if there are slight oversights, he won't mind."

Fang Qinghuai keenly noticed that this new maid seemed to have changed a little, no longer as aggressive as before.

The master of Winter Garden didn't have time to think too much and said decisively, "I'll go prepare immediately."

He turned to leave, but Xie You stopped him, "Family Head, please wait!"

Fang Qinghuai turned his head back, his face showing doubt.

The alluring lady spoke softly, "Please allow me to venture a guess. Director Cheng is definitely not deliberately making things difficult for the Fang family by doing this.

"I guess Director Cheng expects that Winter Garden, in order to prepare a high-standard feast within four hours, will have to purchase high-end ingredients from other wealthy families and borrow chefs skilled in cooking snakes.

"In this way, the news of Director Cheng's banquet for the Grand Governor will surely spread quickly, and the whole city will know about it tonight…"

Fang Qinghuai suddenly understood and interjected, "So, Director Cheng is using the name of the feast to indirectly put pressure on the Grand Governor.

"With the entire city paying close attention, the Grand Governor will be forced to attend the banquet, otherwise, he will lose face badly."

Xie You smiled: "That is also my view."

Fang Qinghuai couldn't help but sigh, "Director Cheng's methods are truly brilliant."

He wanted to say something else: Big figures are really terrifying; every single strand of hair on their heads seems to have eighteen minds.

Fang Qinghuai looked at Xie You again: "Thanks to your reminder, otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of so much."

Xie You seriously returned a bow: "You are too polite. I am paid by the Fang family; this is my duty."

Fang Qinghuai truly felt that this maid had indeed undergone a significant transformation.

When he recruited her, he had personally chatted with her for a while, knowing that although she was good at serving big figures, she was quite arrogant inside.

Unfortunately, his family lacked talent in this area, so he had to grit his teeth and invite her into Winter Garden.

The root of this change was self-evident.

It must be related to Director Cheng.

And in just one day, to make a maid so different, Director Cheng's ability to train people is also so impressive.

Fang Qinghuai left in a hurry, filled with deep emotion.

Soon.

Winter Garden became chaotic.

Fang Qinghuai, at the fastest speed, sent all the servants out, ordering them to quickly find relevant ingredients in various high-end ingredient stores.

Not only that.

The master of Winter Garden personally visited friends and had his wife and daughter ask relatives and friends for help, with a very clear purpose—borrow manpower, borrow feather beasts, buy ingredients.

Anyone who could help was welcome!

As time passed, more and more people participated in the banquet preparations.

*

Inside a high-end restaurant.

A servant rushed straight in, shouting, "Is the manager here?"

A waiter tried to stop him: "Sorry, it's not business hours!"

The servant shouted in one breath, "Patrol Department Director Cheng has booked Winter Garden at 7 PM tonight to host a snake soup banquet for Grand Governor, I heard that your restaurant's Chef Quan Xiaofeng is good at cooking snakes, so I'm here to invite him."

The waiter was startled and subconsciously asked, "Really?"

The servant gasped for breath and asked back, "Am I tired of living, daring to joke about these two big figures?"

The waiter immediately understood that this was a big deal and quickly said, "Let me take you to find the manager."

A minute later.

Including the servant and the chef, several people hurriedly rushed out of the restaurant carrying ingredients.

The manager kept urging, "This 'Red Horn Coiled Dragon' takes two hours to cook, everyone hurry up!"

After these people left.

All the staff in the restaurant were talking about it.

A big figure hosting a banquet for another big figure, actually borrowing the restaurant's chef, and making such a big show of it, this was the first time they had heard of such a strange thing in so many years.

*

The Wang family.

Wealthy young man Qu Maokun, braving the heavy rain, rode a feather beast into the front yard of the mansion.

Before the mount had stopped, this guy shouted loudly, "Uncle Wang, Winter Garden has an important matter that needs your help."

The servant didn't dare to stop this young master and could only watch him rush into the living room, leaving a row of dirty footprints on the clean floor.

A dozen seconds later.

The head of the Wang family, Wang Yibo, walked down the stairs, curiously asking, "Maokun, why are you running errands for the Fang family of Winter Garden?"

Qu Maokun shook his head: "Uncle Wang, my family was indeed entrusted by Winter Garden, but I'm not running errands for the Fang family."

Wang Yibo immediately reacted: "Director Cheng?"

Qu Maokun quickly explained the matter and added, "I heard that your family has a transcendent ingredient called 'Ice Vein Snake', and Winter Garden is willing to buy it with a lot of money."

Wang Yibo waved his hand generously: "What a lot of money! Director Cheng is hosting a banquet, how can I accept money! I'll have the housekeeper send it over immediately!"

If it was the Fang family buying it, the head of the family wouldn't even bother talking about it, but since the matter concerned Director Cheng, who was shaking the whole city, he behaved extremely generously.

Soon.

The housekeeper, with several servants, quickly stuffed the frozen-solid transcendent ingredient into a crystal energy car and drove it out of the gate.

Wang Yibo watched the car disappear, his face full of gossip: "This is the first time Director Cheng has seen the Grand Governor since taking office, right?"

Qu Maokun boldly guessed: "Perhaps it's also the last time."

He immediately gave his reasons: "When the king meets the king, they will definitely show their cards, and there will be no room for reconciliation between the two sides."

Wang Yibo nodded: "After tonight, I'm afraid Director Cheng will have the final say in Anhua City."

Qu Maokun had a different opinion: "Since Director Cheng came to Anhua City, this Director's voice has always been the loudest."

Between these two people's words, they completely disregarded the Grand Governor.

In the past, this was almost unimaginable.

The so-called "seeing a leopard through a spot", from this small detail, it was enough to judge that the Grand Governor had completely lost the hearts of the people.

This was not surprising.

Some time ago, the Dream of the Alien God, the Dream Born Society, and the Words of the Alien God caused trouble one after another, and the situation was precarious, but Director Cheng sat in Anhua City and almost single-handedly stabilized the situation.

In contrast to the Grand Governor, it was not an exaggeration to describe him as "doing nothing."

Everyone was not blind and naturally saw it clearly.

The terrible Alien God had already revived, who wouldn't want Anhua City to have a strong leader?

*

Winter Garden.

Xie You quickly reported: "After contacting many parties, the Fang family has confirmed that there will be a total of sixteen dishes in tonight's snake soup banquet, half of which are transcendent ingredients."

The taste of transcendent ingredients is not necessarily better than ordinary ingredients. The ratio of fifty-fifty ensures both sufficient grade and deliciousness.

Objectively speaking, this was a very thoughtful arrangement.

And in such a rush, to gather so many rare ingredients in just one hour, the Fang family has indeed done impeccably.

Cheng Han put down an official document and nodded: "Thank you the Fang family on my behalf!"

Xie You respectfully replied: "Understood!"

Cheng Han thought for a while and then instructed: "There may be relatively large hail around six o'clock, notify the Fang family to prepare for it."

Xie You replied "Okay" and quickly pushed the door out.

The alluring lady had personally witnessed all kinds of magical things about Director Cheng and deeply believed in his "predictions."

At this time.

Right in front of Cheng Han.

A round of brilliant halo, invisible to others, was floating in mid-air, with an extremely blurred picture displayed in the center.

On its left.

Colorful light could be seen, covering half of the space, and vaguely visible were some extremely majestic and huge figures standing in it.

Without a doubt.

This must be a group of god-level powerhouses from the Wan Hao race.

It is worth mentioning that there was a familiar aura mixed in.

Cheng Han blinked his eyes and muttered to himself, "The Lan Yun God General also participated in this two-world war?"

On its right.

There were only layers of super giant waves, sometimes surging and sometimes calming down, and the color of the ocean surface changed, looking quite like an impressionist painting.

And under the giant waves, there seemed to be some extremely huge shadows quietly lurking in them.

This was probably the god-level powerhouse of the You Miao world.

They discovered the invasion of the Wan Hao race and gathered to try to resist.

Cheng Han stared at the halo and guessed, "God Generals and God Lords are probably taking the opportunity of the confrontation to explore the location of the 'Quiet Vortex', right?"

He glanced at it a few more times, and a sense of pride rose in his heart: "It seems that the strength of our Wan Hao race is stronger than that of the You Miao world."

This was not a difficult conclusion to draw.

If the Wan Hao race was not strong, how dare they cross the border to fight?

If the You Miao world was stronger, they would have started fighting long ago, relying on their home advantage.

The corners of Cheng Han's mouth turned up slightly: "Enjoying the snake soup banquet while watching the God Generals and God Lords beat up that little snake is quite a good experience."

Five minutes later.

Xie You returned and brought a new message.

"News came from the Hall of Political Affairs that after Grand Governor Bai Yichuan received the invitation, he sat alone in his office for more than ten minutes, smashed a chair, and then told his secretary that he would attend the banquet on time."

Cheng Han smiled with satisfaction: "Not bad."

Faced with the attention of the whole city, Bai Yichuan had no other choice, otherwise, his prestige would be swept away.

And a Grand Governor with no prestige was a slap in the face of the Xuan Pavilion. Once the Pavilion Master knew about this, he would immediately dismiss him.

Therefore.

Bai Yichuan must attend this Hongmen banquet.

The alluring lady paused for a moment and then said a small piece of gossip: "I heard that Governor's Secretary Ding Shulin had a black eye on the right side after coming out of the office."

Cheng Han shook his head slightly.

At this time.

The halo suddenly flashed.

A strange voice suddenly rang in his head.

This voice carried endless majesty, speaking an unknown language. Just listening to it, the tip of his nose smelled the scent of water, and the ocean illusion rippled before his eyes.

The power of language alone possessed such an amazing effect, this must be the language of the gods.

Cheng Han used the All-Knowing Eye to understand this sentence: "Wan Hao people, this is not your world, you are going too far!"
