Chapter Summary
From the city lord's attitude, these guys basically understood that it was unlikely they could get the city lord to do it together. The situation is now very clear: the city lord and Liu Ning have already discussed it and decided that they don't want to argue about this matter. Although we all know the City Lord's backing is formidable, if we all unite, I believe your position won't be very secure." These people dared not utter a word when facing Liu Ning, because Liu Ning was stronger than them...
From the city lord's attitude, these guys basically understood that it was unlikely they could get the city lord to do it together. The city lord simply didn't want to do it. If he wanted to do it, he probably wouldn't need them to say anything.
He can handle this matter properly. The situation is now very clear: the city lord and Liu Ning have already discussed it and decided that they don't want to argue about this matter. The main reason is that you people are not worth it.
They've reached a new level; why would they want to cooperate with you people? In other words, do you people even have the foundation to cooperate with them? Or do you have the capital to cooperate with them? The power dynamics between the two sides are simply not on the same level.
Therefore, there's no need to talk about cooperation anymore. Precisely because of this, when all these things come together, these people finally realize what they've been doing. It's obvious that they've shot themselves in the foot, and the things that happened before are hard to say anymore.
"Lord City Lord, we understand what you're saying, but you have to be understanding of the current situation. All of us have put in a lot of effort. We've exhausted all our energy and resources and invested a lot of money in this matter."
But now you've said one thing and we're being told to withdraw from this matter. What about all the money we've already invested? Are we just supposed to just throw it all away? If that's the case, is that acceptable to us?
If we don't do this, what will be the final result? We hope you can give us an answer. Don't let us down. We've been able to establish ourselves in this city for a long time. If you just abandon us like this, isn't the city lord going too far?
"We're not pushovers either. Although we all know the City Lord's backing is formidable, if we all unite, I believe your position won't be very secure."
These people dared not utter a word when facing Liu Ning, because Liu Ning was stronger than them, and if Liu Ning really wanted to punish them, they probably wouldn't be able to stop him. But when facing the city lord, they probably weren't so worried, and they had no other choice.
Because the city lord isn't much of a threat, if he really causes trouble, they can easily stop him. They understand the city lord's ultimate fate. If they let the city lord have his way in everything, what will they get in the end? Just like the matter we just discussed.
The city lord had long wanted to get rid of them and had been thinking about kicking them out for a long time. It's very likely that he had this idea for a long time, but Liu Ning's arrival made it a reality. Because of this, these people don't know what to say now.
For now, many things can only be this way. As for the final outcome, that depends on how things turn out. If things improve, everything will be fine; if they don't, it will be a disaster.
The city lord looked up at the old man, who was Zhang Feng's grandfather. It could be said that after the old man died, this old man Zhang rose to prominence in the city and gained control of a large amount of local power. At this moment, he knew very well what he should do.
If he were to speak up, the people in the room would surely treat him like a god. These people aren't fools; they needed someone else to speak up, and now it seems they finally have someone like that. This person is exactly what they wanted to see.
These people are actually quite powerful, but in the eyes of others they are just a disorganized bunch. If they want to become capable, it seems unlikely at the moment. They have to develop slowly. If they can't develop...
It's not good for them either. So far, these guys are doing pretty well. But if given a good opportunity, they're capable of anything. That's how they are now. As for how they'll end up, that's up to you.
"I really didn't know that. I thought you guys were all submissive and wouldn't argue with me about this. Now it seems I was wrong. I was too nice to you guys before. Now I'm reminding you."
Do you really think you can negotiate with me? If you want to negotiate with me, you need to have enough strength. I don't know where you learned this lesson, or where you got the guts.
How dare you speak to me like that? You certainly have extensive local influence, but let me make you understand that I am now the city lord here. In the next two or three years, I may be oppressed by you, and you may exercise some power within the city hall. But then again, what if I rise to power?
Will you be able to do it in the end? I'm afraid you won't be able to at that point, so I hope you understand that if you do well, it will benefit everyone; if you don't, then you'll be punished.
The city lord snorted coldly. If you want to use this matter to threaten us, you'd better see if you have the ability. The city lord hates this kind of thing. If you have the ability, go find Liu Ning. He is the one you should be looking for. Why are you making trouble for me here? It's obvious that you are picking on the weak.
The city lord was naturally displeased with this situation. Regardless of your intentions, what you did was excessive. I never saw how despicable you were before, but now I see it all.
As for what the final outcome will be, you can think about it slowly. The city lord is definitely not someone to be bullied. If he were, how could he have reached this position? The resources from above are one aspect.
One aspect is his own courage. After the city lord finished speaking, he immediately parted ways with these people. "If you want to cause trouble, we'll keep you company. Let's see if you have the guts. If you don't, then we won't say any more."
