Chapter 75
Zhang Ding watched the medicine cart burning coldly, and he didn't look away until the second medicine cart was also on fire.

"This Xuanji Hall has been with me for so many years, it is a pity that it is about to burn down suddenly."

Chen Chang, who was standing beside Zhang Ding, was not in such a good mood to be sentimental with him.

He only said: "After burning these two carts of medicine, don't forget how many more people will be burned."

"How many people are suitable to be burned?" Zhang Ding was a little distressed: "It's a pity to lose so many people in the Ling Mansion now."

"Don't worry! Those who were driven out of Ducheng by Ling Qing, I will stay, but I can't stay in Ducheng for the time being."

Zhang Ding's eyes lit up: "Where did you hide them?"

"Outside the city." Chen Chang said what he planned to do with the servants, "I want to take advantage of this fire to make a request with the chamber of commerce."

"Let them replace the lost people, so that we don't need to re-register, and we don't need to spend extra money on useless places."

Zhang Ding couldn't help worrying: "Will the people from the chamber of commerce agree?"

"Even if they don't want to, they will agree. Because this is Ling Qing's mistake, they have to make up for it." Chen Chang said with a smile: "In this way, Ling Qing has another enemy."

Hearing that Ling Qing had more enemies, Zhang Ding was overjoyed.

"If the original city residents survived in the slums, they would also hate Ling Qing. It was because of her that they were burned to death." Chen Chang continued.

"If there were no survivors, wouldn't there still be the original city dwellers in Nanjiao Lane! Martin, a single-minded person, would believe our words after a few words."

"Even if you don't believe it, there are people in the city who belong to us. If three people become tigers, you still can't persuade him to believe it?!" Chen Chang sneered again: "He will definitely believe it."

Otherwise, how could he be instigated by them and lead the townspeople to make trouble in the Ling family.

Chen Chang was so sure that Zhang Ding gradually believed it.

"How is your arrangement in the slums?" Chen Chang asked.

Zhang Ding smiled triumphantly: "The medicine I gave them is not ordinary medicine. The medicine can not only make people wake up and enjoy the taste of dying slowly, but also make them immobilized."

"You are cruel enough."

"Speaking of cruelty, my pediatrics is not as good as one of your ten middle schools, and I have to teach you in the future." After finishing speaking, Zhang Ding bowed his hand to Chen Chang.

It made Chen Chang laugh out loud, the sound mixed with the raging fire turned into a sharp blade, piercing Martin's heart fiercely.

He was crawling on the wall, listening to the conversation between Chen Chang and Zhang Ding, word for word.

Martin came so early, but he just wanted to see Ling Qing earlier, and then know earlier what she asked him to do.

He asked Xinghe, but Xinghe was unwilling to reveal a word, and even urged him not to be late with a look of disgust.

Therefore, he will arrive early.

As soon as he came to the west of the city, he saw the dazzling light in the backyard of Xuanji Hall, so he came over curious to see what was going on.Unexpectedly, at this glance, he discovered a cruel and inhuman event.

Having thought so far, he jumped off the city wall and ran towards the slums.

Before reaching the vicinity of the slums, I saw a group of people coming out of the slums.

One can tell they are people from Xuanjitang, because they are all wearing medicine boy clothes.They seem to have completed their mission in the slums and are planning to return to Xuanjitang.

Martin turned and ran, but they still found him.

The drug boys were also startled by Martin's appearance, and immediately shouted: "Grab him, don't let him escape!"

Zhang Ding, who didn't know that an unexpected person broke in, was already at the gate of Xuanji Hall, welcoming Cao Cheng's arrival.

With a straight and thin face, Cao Cheng glanced past Zhang Ding, looked at the medicine cart with its charred frame, and said angrily, "What's going on!"

Zhang Ding immediately explained the whole story in detail.That was the script agreed upon with Chen Chang.

And Chen Chang, who came up with the idea, has already hid, waiting for the right time to show up.

According to Cao Cheng's understanding of the two of them, as long as they appear together, there must be a conspiracy.

So, that's why Chen Chang hid.

"Didn't Ling Qing already get the medicinal materials and gold he wanted! Why did he not let Xuanjitang go!" Cao Cheng said angrily.

Zhang Ding looked sad and said: "Cao Shanghu, everyone in Ducheng knows what kind of character Ling Qing is. She is going to burn down our Xuanji Hall, and we can't do anything to her. That's the point."

"Is there a news conference?"

"I've asked someone to report it," Zhang Ding said with a look of waiting for praise, "What's more, even the slums were burned. Those original city residents seemed to have died in the fire."

Cao Cheng didn't know whether he should be happy or happy. If the original city citizen died, then the existence of Ling Chengtian's gold and jade medal would not be so scary?

No, there are more than 200 original urban residents in Nanjiao Lane, and they cannot be underestimated.

"You'd better be sure that no one in the slums will die!"

"Even if it's not dead, it's impossible to be intact." Zhang Ding gave Cao Cheng another dose of reassurance.

The two stood outside the door, looking at the medicine boy who was walking hurriedly, each carrying a bucket back and forth.

The intensity of the fire didn't necessarily decrease, and it seemed that there were signs that it would continue to rise.

The people from the chamber of commerce are here.

Liao Shizhe came with a team of merchant guards, and Cao Cheng greeted him personally.

When he was about to repeat the whole story, Liao Shizhe whispered directly in his ear: "Elder Qian Yuan is waiting for you in the carriage."

Seeing this, Cao Cheng quickly lifted up his clothes and ran out of Xuanji Hall in a hurry. When he saw the carriage at the entrance of the alley, he immediately tidied up his appearance before walking quickly.

In the carriage, Qian Rong was resting with his eyes closed.

He knew everything about Xuanji Hall from the medicine boy who reported it to the chamber of commerce.

As soon as Cao Cheng got into the carriage, his anxious expression had regained his composure, and his attitude was neither friendly nor indifferent.

He said: "I hope Elder Qian Yuan can give an explanation."

"What to explain?"

The corner of Cao Cheng's eyes twitched, Qian Rong would not appear rashly before he figured out the matter.Now that he answered like this, he just wanted not to give an explanation.

If you don't give money, don't blame him for not giving face.

"Then we have nothing to talk about."

When Cao Cheng was about to get out of the car with a flick of his sleeves, Qian Rong said, "Wait a minute."

Qian Rong knew that Cao Cheng didn't dare to move Ling Qing, so he turned a corner and confronted the chamber of commerce, clearly wanting to seize this opportunity and avenge their refusal to promote him to the senior position.

The Xuanji Hall was on fire, Qian Rong didn't believe there was no conspiracy by Cao Cheng.

He even put the blame on Ling Qing, and he has already seen through Jiang Qing's tricks of putting the blame on.

But it is absolutely unnecessary to find out whether Ling Qing set the fire.So Qian Rong didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly: "What do you want to explain?"

Cao Cheng sat down again, and said no nonsense: "Now send two carts of medicinal materials of Panax notoginseng and bletilla striata over here, and burn the tent of Xuanji hall. I will ask Ling Qing directly for it, and will not disturb the chamber of commerce."

When Qian Rong heard it, his heart fell to the ground: "It's a deal, and I can send you directly to your destination."

"I don't dare to bother Elder Qian with the matter of delivering the medicine." Cao Cheng cupped his hands: "Now it's still too late to deliver the medicine from the mall, so I'll wait at the north gate of the city."

After saying that, Cao Cheng hurried back to Xuanji Hall to make arrangements.

Knowing the importance of delivering the medicine, Qian Rong hurried back to Qian's mansion. He was glad that he had come in person, otherwise it would not have been so simple and private if it had come to General Chen.
