"If that's really the case, that would be bad. I think I have sold some related information to the Loong family to Ninth Duke. If they really put down their grudges, would they attack us if they wanted to clean up the people who are responsible for selling the information?"
"That's really possible. We should listen to the news first. Otherwise, we won't be able to keep our lives. " However, we all make a living out of this. " Therefore, it's best that they don't care about us. They can even understand us. They won't bother with us. "
When everyone saw the scene before them, they were really happy and worried. They were happy that the Loong family finally had a backer. With the help of the imperial family, they would have a chance to rise. Even if they could live a peaceful life, it would be good if they didn't let the others covet them.
This way, the people of the Loong family would be safe. However, there were also some who felt very worried. Because of the cooperation between the Loong family and Ninth Duke, some of the people who were selling information back and forth would easily become the targets of the cooperation between the two parties. It was very likely that these people who were selling information would have some secret information.
Zhang Fann brought his men and sent Ninth Duke and the others far away. Even after they separated, they still waved their hands and said their goodbyes, as if they were reluctant to part with them.
However, they didn't understand Zhang Fann's actions. They only knew that they had to cooperate with Zhang Fann and act in a show. As for what effect it had, they had no idea.
Although Ninth Master Lu and the others didn't know what was going on, they didn't know either. However, they trusted Zhang Fann very much. As long as it was Zhang Fann's order, they wouldn't object, nor would they ask about it. They would do it first. When they had the chance in the future, they would naturally ask Zhang Fann about it.
Based on their understanding of Zhang Fann, as long as it was something that Zhang Fann wanted to do, it must be meaningful. They would not do anything for no reason.
After returning to the room, Ninth Master Lu and the others sat together. Although no one said anything about it, But everyone has the same question. That was the reason why Zhang Fann did this. It was already considered an act of mercy when he saw Ninth Duke not beating him up, yet he still treated him with such respect. What was the meaning of this?
Not long after, Loong Xue and Zhang Fann came to the main hall while chatting and laughing. Ninth Master Lu and the others also stood up and welcomed Zhang Fann.
The few of them took their seats. The maids beside them served a few cups of tea and then went out one after another. They knew in their hearts that Zhang Fann and the others must have something important to discuss.
Dao Lang could not hide things in his heart. He went straight to the point and asked Zhang Fann, "Big Brother. What are you singing today? "I don't understand. We all know that Ninth Duke is not a good person. Why do you respect him so much? "What's the point of that?"
Gao Eh also said, "Yes. I wanted to beat him up when I saw his face, but Yang, can you really endure his condition?"
Although Yan Fei had his own thoughts, he would never express his opinion. Because he knew that someone would say what he was thinking.
Ninth Master Lu didn't say anything. After all, Zhang Fann had his own reasons for doing everything. Normally, Zhang Fann would explain things to everyone later.
After the two of them finished speaking, Zhang Fann smiled and said to them, "I guessed that you would ask this question. Of course, I have my reasons for doing this, because I am thinking about the future of Loong family."
After listening to Zhang Fann's words, All of them were stunned, as if they didn't understand what Zhang Fann meant. They all looked at Zhang Fann, ready to hear what Zhang Fann had to say.
After a pause, Zhang Fann continued to say to them, "The truth is very simple. Today, I set up a trap. That is to scam this Ninth Duke and extort some things from him. This thing is very valuable to Loong family. "
Oh? What kind of treasure is it? Why don't you take it out and let us all have a look?" Dao Lang raised his eyebrows when he heard Zhang Fann's words. He asked Zhang Fann with some confusion in his heart.
Zhang Fann smiled and said, "This thing is more valuable than any treasure. I extorted a city from Ninth Duke, which is the Hengyang City not far from the Loong family."
"What? A city? My God, can he really give it to me? "Could he be lying to us? "That's a city!" Dao Lang's face was filled with shock. He had never thought that this would happen.
Zhang Fann nodded and said to them, "That's right. It's the Hengyang City. I still have an agreement in my hands. Ninth Duke has signed the agreement, so it is now in effect. We can move there at any time."
Everyone looked at the agreement in Zhang Fann's hands. The contents were really related to the transfer of the city. There was indeed Ninth Duke's signature and the contract below.
"Obtaining a city from the royal family is not something that ordinary people can do. Mr. Zhang Fann, how did you do it?" Cheng Bo's face was filled with shock and disbelief. He asked Zhang Fann.
Zhang Fann smiled and said, "It's simple. Sometimes, a city can be used to exchange for a person's life. At least in Ninth Duke's opinion, this business is worth it."
After hearing Zhang Fann's words, Dao Lang's interest was piqued. He hurriedly asked Zhang Fann, "Big Brother, the news you mentioned is really a little confusing. How did you do it? Can you tell us more about it?"
Everyone expressed their interest. They all wanted to know what Zhang Fann had done to obtain a city from Ninth Duke. It was almost impossible.
To the imperial family, the territory of a city was more important than their lives. Furthermore, the city was divided by the royal family. Trading was not allowed. How did Zhang Fann do it?
Zhang Fann took a sip of tea and started to tell them about what had happened in Loong Xue's study room. Everyone was stunned when they heard what Zhang Fann said. They didn't expect Zhang Fann to have such means.
After Gao Eh heard it, he said to Zhang Fann, "Yang, you are too kind to him. If it were me, I would beat him until he was a pig's head and then extort him. This way, I can relieve the hatred in my heart."
"That's right." Dao Lang also said, "This kind of person always knows how to act in front and behind. How could such a person live in this world? He is truly an unforgivable scumbag."2
