Strengthening starts from the county magistrate

Later, Shen Mu and Cao Zhengxiang walked out of Aoning's courtyard.

The result of this negotiation has naturally achieved its goal, and all the plans that need to be said have been said.

The last step depends on how Ao Ning persuades the people in Beilong Palace after returning home.

In fact, this matter is not difficult to deal with.

Shen Mu was able to hand over the Dragon King's basket without hurting Prince Ao Bing, so it's not yet unsolvable.

In the end, as long as each takes what he needs, he can take a step back.

The North Dragon Palace needs a face and steps, while Dongzhou needs the water of the Dragon Sea to irrigate a long river into the sea that is enough to nurture the land of Dongzhou.

That's okay to accept this deal, collude in private, and put on a big show in front of outsiders.

Of course, the current situation is only Shen Mu's unilateral idea.

It is still unknown whether the other party will accept this transaction where everyone gets what they want.

But with Ao Ning's foreshadowing, perhaps the success rate will be higher.

...

The next morning.

Outside the gate of Fengjiang City, Fang Mu and Cao Zhengxiang sent off Ao Ning with a carriage, which contained Dragon King baskets and various "souvenirs" of Fengjiang.

"Brother Ao Ning, remember to bring these to the old Dragon King, especially this massage stick for the Qi Fu Acupoint."

Ao Ning looked at these with a strange expression: "Master Shen, are you sure that I will bring these things back to the North Dragon Palace, the old Dragon King will like them?"

"Brother Ao Ning, I'm really not bragging to you. As far as the things we put out in Fengjiang, no one has said that they don't like it. Have you heard that sentence? Fengjiang's products must be high-quality goods."

Ao Ning accepted it suspiciously.

Then he glanced at the old catfish: "During this period of time, you should stay in the mansion in Fengjiang, accompany His Royal Highness, and wait for news from me."

Catfish smiled flatteringly: "I would like to follow Master Ao Ning's instructions."

The two finished speaking.

With a big wave of his hand, Ao Ning got the carriage together with him, and then flew away.

Looking at the leaving back, Shen Mu sighed: "I don't know if it can be done."

Cao Zhengxiang smiled and said: "My lord, there is no need to worry too much. In fact, you can give away the Dragon King basket, which is already considered a bargaining chip. But if the Dragon King of the North Dragon Palace is not foolish, he will not refuse this transaction."

Catfish on the side nodded in agreement: "Master Cao is right, this Dragon King Basket is really an indelible memory for the dragon in the sea, so if you can hand over this magic weapon, there is a high probability that there will be no problem, besides, your highness It's fine too."

Shen Mu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: "I hope so."

After a few brief chats, Niaoyu went back to the mansion Shen Mu had prepared for him, and went to find the koi.

But Shen Mu and Cao Zhengxiang did not leave, they continued to stand at the gate of the city, looking in another direction.

At this time, a carriage came slowly.

A man in black was driving the carriage, holding the rein while looking around, as if it was his first time here, and he felt that everything around him was new.

In fact, it is more surprising and shocking.

After Wang Pan came out of Jiumen Mountain in North Cangzhou, he traveled all over the world, bluffing, cheating and speculating everywhere, and saw many places.

But after following Li Fuyao to the frontier, the whole person began to be in a state of excitement.

Li Fuyao and Qiu Lian in the carriage were very strange, they didn't understand why Wang Pan was so excited.

Qiu Lian: "Brother Wang Pan, can you not look down when you drive the car? The carriage is very unstable. Is it because you want to see the Lord of Shenmu? Are you afraid that there is something wrong with your orientation?"

Li Fuyao: "!?"

After Wang Pan heard it, he smiled awkwardly, then sat up straight, and said:

"Uh, how is it possible? I'm a normal man, I never play those side ways, what a joke."

Qiu Lian: "Then you are?"

Wang Pan: "Miss Qiulian doesn't understand. Our Nine Gate Mountains practice the Earth Jue technique. Although it is not as powerful as Sect Master Li Fuyao, we are still very proficient in the issue of earth veins and luck. "

Li Fuyao also became a little interested: "So?"

Wang Pan smiled: "So, I'm looking at the leylines of this frontier. Is there really any unique underground resources like the Lord Shenmu said?"

"Then... is there?"

Wang Pan nodded: "Yes, and it shocked me very much. Judging from the surface of Fengjiang, the waterless system may not be as moist as other places, but the strange thing is here. Look at the lush foliage around here, such a land Environment, why vegetation remains unaffected?

Moreover, I can sense the tactic of practicing, there is a breath of life spreading outward from Fengjiang City, it is extremely powerful, like a spring with infinite water, I have to say, this is really interesting, if you can use it, Maybe a cave can be opened under the land veins of Fengjiang. "

"Oh? Are you sure, you can build an underground palace in the underground of Fengjiang?"

Right at this moment, a familiar voice came.

Wang Pan suddenly raised his head upon hearing the sound, and then opened his mouth in disbelief.

"Shen...City Lord Shen! I'm going, I'm really not dead, how did you do it, come back faster than us?"

At the gate of the city, Shen Mu looked at Wang Pan with a smile: "That would be a long story, but there will be opportunities in the future, how about it, welcome to Fengjiang City to take up a job."

Wang Pan was very excited: "Hahaha, it's easy to say! You can eat and drink."

"Thank you, City Lord Shen, for avenging the Qiu family. Qiu Lian is extremely grateful! I can't repay you, and I am willing to serve you."

Qiu Lian stepped out of the carriage, and when she saw Shen Mu, she knelt down without saying a word.

The Xie family and his wife were beheaded by Shen Mu. Even if the Xie family was not completely wiped out, it was basically cut off from its foundation.

So it was indirectly helping Qiulian to avenge her.

"How did you come back? What happened that day? I heard that you killed the Xie family couple, how did you do the two overhauls on the tenth floor? In the end, are there really people who use the way of heaven?"

After Li Fuyao saw Shen Mu, finally An couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart.

Before Shen Mu could deal with Qiu Lian, she asked directly.

Shen Mu looked at the two women helplessly, smiled awkwardly, didn't know what to do, so he could only turn around and ask Cao Zhengxiang for help.

But at this moment, Cao Zhengxiang was staring at Qiulian's chest with a smile, and said thoughtfully: "It really is such a good Qiushui, my lord, why don't you just help me, Miss Qiulian can..."

Shen Mu: "Li Fuyao, you should bring Qiulian back to your Fuyao sect. Didn't you say to let her enter your sect before? Then leave it to you. Wang Pan will just follow me. As for the matter of Nanjing, we will discuss it later Let me explain to you later."

Shen Mu didn't give Cao Zhengxiang a chance to speak.

This old boy really wanted to cheat himself again.

Serve left and right?

Just kidding, am I the kind of person who takes advantage of others?
While thinking about it, he helped Qiu Lian who was kneeling in gratitude, and then said seriously: "Miss Qiu, there is no need to do this. If you really thank me, why not...give me the personal thing you are wearing underneath."

Qiu Lian: "Huh!?"

Li Fuyao: "!!!"

Wang Pan: "???"

Cao Zhengxiang: "As expected of an adult, the taste is unique, wonderful!"

Shen Mu: "..."
