Chapter 31, it's over

They said they would leave tomorrow, but in fact they delayed for more than half a month.

The day the Fang family was sent to guard the border was said to be extremely lively, but Yang Zhao didn't dare to go to see it, fearing that someone would take revenge.

After those people left, she dared to turn on her mobile phone to report to her family that she was safe.

When she got up the next day, she resigned from the shopkeeper Rong.

Shopkeeper Rong didn't say anything, after all, she had expected this result.Let her live in Shande Fang before leaving, and teach those two little apprentices by the way, which is the rent.

This was out of kindness, for fear that she would be retaliated against if she went out to live.

Afterwards, City Lord Zheng took an inventory of the Fang family's property, and sent someone to tell Yang Zhao to take over one-third of the Fang family's property.

She got up early that day, turned on the video on her phone, connected it to a power bank and put it in her schoolbag.Packed up his things, carried his schoolbag and went to bid farewell to shopkeeper Rong.

When Yang Zhao arrived, the Fang family was already very busy. It was rumored that the Lord of Laiyuan Mansion hired three pawnshops, two dental shops and the clerks in the city lord's mansion, and it took more than ten days to evaluate the property.

The women and children of the Fang family will be selected first, and the rest will be divided equally between the Rong family and Yunyang Temple.

Sitting in the hall, Laiyuan Mansion Lord gave each of the property lists of the Fang family to the Rong family and Yang Zhao.

Yang Zhao glanced at it and put down the list casually.

"My lord, you can decide how you want to divide it. I'm new here, and I haven't read all the words on it! I just want to trouble City Lord Zheng with one thing."

City Lord Zheng, who was drinking tea at the side, was stunned and said, "Is there anything that can bother me?"

Yang Zhao: "City Lord, you may not know that I will leave Cangcheng with Master Shen in a few days, and go to another place to plan some property to rebuild the teleportation formation. Naturally, the Fang family can't take the money away. I want to discuss with the city lord whether I can stay with you temporarily."

Everyone present was shocked. Can such a large amount of money be entrusted to others with confidence?

"Yang Zhao, do you know how much money that is? We have no relatives and no relationship, how dare you entrust it to me?"

Yang Zhao said sincerely, "Ever since City Lord Zheng rescued the watchman from Fang Shuli two months ago, your character is unquestionable, but this time you still have to trouble City Lord Zheng to help me. I am very grateful.”

City Lord Zheng and Lord Laiyuan Mansion looked at each other and laughed.

"Okay, there's nothing you can't agree to. I'll make two copies of this property list later, one for you, and one for the city lord's mansion. When you come back to rebuild the moving array, I will guarantee that these properties will be worth a lot." .”

Afterwards, the scribes in the Summoning Mansion wrote a deed, with a property list attached at the back. City Lord Zheng and Yang Zhao signed and sealed it, and the list was turned into ashes in an instant.

After solving this important matter, Yang Zhao heaved a sigh of relief, sat with him for a while, got up and bid farewell to everyone.

When she came out, Shen Ruoyu was already waiting for her outside. Seeing Yang Zhao coming out empty-handed, he asked her in surprise, "You really entrusted all your property to City Lord Zheng?"

Yang Zhao: "Of course, things that have been discussed, can I go back on my word?"

Shen Ruoyu laughed out loud.

"I didn't expect that the little girls are so powerful now?"

Yang Zhao had a depressed face, if it wasn't for the fact that she couldn't take the money, why wouldn't she not take it?
The Fang family was once the largest family in Cangcheng, and the family's wealth is huge, even if it is one-third, it is estimated that it can cover Cangcheng's tax revenue for a few years, or even a few years.

The outflow of such a large amount of money to other cities is a major asset outflow, and a normal person would not allow it!

There is no black and white on this issue, as long as Yang Zhao is greedy, she can only die.Simply being generous, not taking a single point, and forcing City Lord Zheng to sign a contract with her, there will be less unnecessary wrangling when building a teleportation formation in the future.

"I just hope that City Lord Zheng hasn't left his post by then." Yang Zhao muttered.

Shen Ruoyu smiled and shook his head beside him: "Don't worry, the monk came to be the lord of the city to accumulate incense. Everyone knows that such a large amount of money is in his hands today. When you come back, he will come again." The autumn has not moved, and his reputation among the common people will surely increase at that time."

Yang Zhao knew that incense was needed for spiritual practice, but he didn't know that incense was so important.

"Why? Why do you want incense?"

Shen Ruoyu said with an inscrutable expression: "You will know when your cultivation base is high, what are you asking now, let's go, let's get out of the city as soon as it is still early, and we can't let the Fang family react."

Yang Zhao got on the beast cart and headed straight for the east gate with Shen Ruoyu.A wharf was built there, and the bustling merchants were busy here. The two of them boarded the pre-booked boat and left Cangcheng along the river.

On the other side, City Lord Zheng, who had just returned to the City Lord's Mansion, was ordering someone to count the property entrusted by Yang Zhao. City Lord Zheng's son was standing beside him, looking at him hesitantly.

City Lord Zheng asked strangely: "What happened to you today? You are not allowed to speak every day, and you are still clamoring to speak."

"Father, the child just doesn't understand."

City Lord Zheng: "Don't understand what?"

His son mustered up his courage before asking: "Since more than two months ago, you offended the Fang family because of that watchman, and a few days ago you favored the people from Shenzhou in Chixian County. Now the Fang family is in pieces. The Lord of Laiyuan Mansion has a relationship with the Fang family, if you do this, it is hard for him not to hate you."

Zheng Chengzhu raised his hand to beckon his son into the room to speak.

City Lord Zheng asked him: "Would you let people use your weapons?"

"Of course not, except my parents, no one can touch my weapons."

"That's right, then do you know what kind of weapons he wants as the lord of a city?"

His son was visibly stunned.

"Could it be the seal of the city lord's mansion?"

City Lord Zheng shook his head with a smile.

"The weapon of the lord of a city is the law of the city! That Ye Fang Shuli robbed people in the middle of the night, and he was using my weapon. How could I spare him?"

"Is the law a weapon?"

"Of course it is, and it is a very useful weapon. I want to govern a city, and I naturally hope that everyone will act according to the law. The law naturally becomes my weapon, and this is also my right. All those who break the law , They are all encroaching on my rights, others like to do things like killing chickens to make an example to monkeys, I just want to do something to kill monkeys and respect chickens."

His son was anxious: "But father, aren't you afraid that the Lord of Laiyuan Mansion will hold grudges against you?"

"Why does he hold grudges against me? The Fang family, relying on their ancestors' relationship with him, does some unsightly things in the name of the Fujun every day. The Fujun has bothered them for a long time."

"But wouldn't it be better for us to have a good relationship with the Fang family?"

City Lord Zheng. "Do you think they are a big family after all, and your father, I am indeed a commoner."

"The son absolutely dare not. The son admires his father's achievements in his heart."

"But you want to be a child of a rich family, don't you?" City Lord Zheng saw through his son's mind.

His son bowed his head in embarrassment.

"If you want to be a big family, you have to create it yourself. Wouldn't it be better for you to be the ancestor of a big family?"
