Chapter Summary
Provoking someone's dignity, especially the dignity of a powerful person, was definitely not a good thing, and once that powerful person remembered it... Everyone understands this very well right now, and there's nothing more to say about this matter. If he doesn't have the ability, then there are many things that can't be said right now.
Looking at the empty hall in front of him, Old Master Zhang felt that he might have made a mistake. He really didn't know how to repent in this matter. If he could change, he would definitely do so immediately. But unfortunately, he missed the chance. The city lord was not someone to be trifled with.
The others exchanged glances, unsure how to address the issue. It was clear that the city lord already disliked them, and the two sides would inevitably become irreconcilable enemies. Provoking someone's dignity, especially the dignity of a powerful person, was definitely not a good thing, and once that powerful person remembered it...
This could very well be a lifelong matter, so these people are getting anxious. If things really escalate, they won't have a good outcome. This is already evident in the current situation. If things continue like this...
This is not a good thing for anyone, so these people have to keep their mouths shut. If they don't, you'll have to think about what will happen next. You've already lost your influence in this city.
They hadn't considered that while the Han family had indeed declined and was unable to maintain its influence in the city, how much better off were you? If you could contend for the position of city lord...
That would definitely be a resource for your family, but now that they've been parachuted in from the capital, it has nothing to do with you anymore. No matter what you're thinking, it seems there's no way to end this now.
If there were other thoughts, some things could be put aside now, but if they can't be put aside, it won't be good for anyone. Everyone understands this very well right now, and there's nothing more to say about this matter.
If someone wants to resolve this issue, then the rest will be easy to resolve. That's what many people do these days. Once these issues are resolved, things will be much easier to handle in the end. That's what many people think.
Old Master Zhang shook his head helplessly. He felt quite pleased with himself for being the first to stick his neck out, but now he had to face the city lord's counterattack. Everyone understood that the saying "the nail that sticks out gets hammered down" wasn't just a saying. No one else had spoken up, so what did he mean by stepping forward?
It's fine if you want to speak, but if you disturb others while speaking, that's no laughing matter. So in this situation, you only have yourself to blame for your bad luck. Everyone understands the current situation; Grandpa Zhang has suffered a great loss.
Although they were the ones who instigated it, Old Master Zhang definitely had his own ideas. He just wanted to act tough and take charge in this matter. As for the final outcome, he didn't think about that, and that's precisely why.
As these things were about to happen, Old Master Zhang went a bit too far. Of course, under such circumstances, Old Master Zhang had no other choice but to do this; he had no other options.
Upon returning to his place, Liu Ning immediately began the transportation work. He was worried that things might get complicated if he delayed. Although he didn't need to worry about the city lord, Old Master Zhang and his group still controlled a large amount of local power, which was Liu Ning's biggest concern.
If Liu Ning could handle them, there would be no need to rush. But right now, these people are impossible to deal with. Their presence in the area is a persistent threat, mainly because of their formidable strength, which makes it impossible for Liu Ning to resolve the situation.
We can only speed things up here. No matter what kind of schemes or tricks you have, the main thing is to complete the relocation of the main structure. The rest can be done slowly. Even if you set your sights on them, there's nothing for us to rush.
Anyway, we all know what to do. Once the main body is moved to our own city, it basically means absolute safety. In the current situation, what are your thoughts? That's a very good thing. We'll take things slowly with the nuts.
Construction has basically begun on Liu Ning's side, and their city wall project has also started. If they don't secure a piece of land outside the city, they won't be able to solve the problem inside. According to Zhao Wudi's plan, the land transfer fee is basically zero, and Liu Ning only needs to bear the cost of the outer city wall.
He opened up a protruding section in the original location of the city wall, and Liu Ning's steel group was established there. Although it was dangerous when attacking the city, Liu Ning had already planned to set up a large armed force on the city wall.
Those ferocious beasts aren't stupid; they won't launch a full-scale attack on this place. Zhao Wudi has already handed this area over to Liu Ning, allowing Liu Ning to increase the armed forces without limit. Anyway, the money comes from a private company, so the government won't say anything. We can just stay here and watch.
Whatever the final outcome, that's for you to resolve yourselves. We're just a negotiating body and will absolutely not say anything more about this matter; everyone is very clear about that.
Of course, before construction could begin, Liu Ning had to pay a deposit of at least 300 billion yuan. This was a law established by the Human Council, and when modifications were made to the city wall, this deposit had to be paid to the garrison headquarters first.
The naval headquarters will only allow you to start construction if you receive this deposit. If you can't start construction in the middle, you definitely won't get this money back. The naval headquarters must complete the repairs of the city wall, as the city wall is related to the life and death of all the people.
It's not like you can just do whatever you want. So if Liu Ning wants to do this, he has to see if he has the ability. If he doesn't have the ability, then there are many things that can't be said right now. That's the situation right now.
When similar things are gradually completed, you also need to see if you have the ability to do so. If you can't, then some things are hard to say. It depends on how you handle them. In this kind of matter, you have to talk about it slowly in the future. Only by talking it out can you get a good result; otherwise, there won't be any good results.
