What's wrong with building a steel torrent in a dungeon?

But before he could be happy for long, Fran continued, "Let's put an end to the kowtow for now, and now let's talk about the 100,000 magic crystal coins you owe me."

"Lord City Lord!? But..."

"What? You have no money but you still want to smash antiques like others?" Fran raised her eyebrows, and the guards around her raised the wooden sticks in their hands again, looking as if they were still not satisfied.

"I have money! I have money! I have money!" Zhu Chongjiu shouted hurriedly, "All my savings are in Mr. Huang's bank! If you let me go, I will take them out right now and give them all to you! However, I am just an ordinary thug, and there is no way I can save up 100,000 magic crystal coins..."

"Oh, I see." Fran said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's okay. If you don't have 100,000, forget it. I'm not one of those tycoons who are so stingy."

"Thank you...thank you, Lord City Lord."

Fran waved her hand and asked the little thug who had been kowtowed to a hundred times by Zhu Chongjiu to come over.

"My Lord City Lord..." The little thug couldn't help but tremble all over.

"What are you afraid of... I'm not a demon?" Fran tried her best to put on a warm smile. But perhaps because of her inappropriate expression, the little thug in front of her became even more frightened.

Fran continued, "Tell Huang Silang that Zhu Chongjiu not only disturbed me while I was drinking, but also smashed antiques worth 100,000 magic crystal coins! Now I'm going to capture him and use him as a reward for the captured miners from the Holy Roll Empire. One magic crystal coin at a time until I pay him back."

Having said this, Fran paused, then said, "Oh, by the way, tell Huang Silang not to worry too much. I am a very principled person. Since it is Zhu Chongjiu who committed the crime, I will never vent my anger on him! I am afraid that he will have wild thoughts, so I kindly remind him. Do you understand?"

"I...I understand!" The little thug immediately stood up and fled from this shabby hotel as if he was escaping from hell.

"Okay!" Fran said to Catherine, "Take this pig with you and let's go meet Huang Shang."

"As you command!"

Chapter 73 I need your help

After Huang Shang and his companions left the tavern, they immediately entered a secret path. They attempted to use these winding paths to paralyze Huang Silang's men.

Although her fighting skills are good, her anti-detection ability is a little lacking. As a result, she was followed by Fran's men all the way without knowing it.

Relying on the information from their subordinates, Fulan and others quickly caught up with Huang Shang and others.

Huang Shang was about to move forward when he suddenly found several strangers holding weapons blocking the end of the alley. They hurried back, only to find that there were also several strangers standing on the way they came, and at the front of the group was a petite loli.

Huang Shang saw that he and his group were blocked in the alley, so he immediately grabbed a wooden stick and took a defensive stance.

The person who came was naturally Fran!

Seeing that Huang Shang was very hostile, she quickly explained with a smile: "Finally I found you! You guys ran away so fast!"

"Hey, hey... Lady Fran! Why do you sound like a bad guy saying this?" Catherine reminded herself in a low voice.

"Ah... is this so?" Fran was stunned.

On the other side, Huang Shang asked directly: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

"Well, we really mean no harm!"

Just as Fran was about to explain, she heard a female miner say, "She! Isn't she the city lord Fran? I've heard her speech."

"Are you sure?" Huang Shang asked in a low voice.

"I'm sure..." The female miner nodded, and then said, "Her breasts are flatter than my sister's, which is rare."

Hey, I heard it!

"Are you...really the Lord of Fulan City?" Huang Shang asked suspiciously.

"It's genuine," Fran said, and ordered Catherine to throw the dying Zhu Chongjiu to the ground, then said, "I heard that this person wanted to do something bad to you, so I helped you solve it in advance."

"Zhu Chongjiu?!" Huang Shang said in surprise.

Zhu Chongjiu, who usually seems to be so arrogant, now looks like a boy thrown out from the nextdoor. He is covered in wounds and his head is swollen from being beaten. He is simply a pig that has lost its home.

In the whole city of Orila, everyone knows that Zhu Chongjiu is the number one fighter of Huang Silang. Now, the only one who dares to provoke Huang Silang is probably the mayor of Orila, Fulan.

Huang Shang came over and said excitedly, "You are really the Lord of the City! Although I have never seen you in person, your speech titled "Struggle" inspired us all! Not to mention that you scolded the envoy of the Holy Roll Empire to death by yourself! The surprise attack forced Margaret to retreat, and forced the nine major families to give in!

"These are just small things..." Fran pretended to be calm. It must be said that it was a great feeling to have someone list all the great achievements you have made in front of you.

"You are worthy of being the city lord!" Huang Shang admired Fulan even more as she looked at her calm face.

Since Huang Shang is his little fan girl, the next thing will be easy.

Huang Shang asked, "I wonder why the City Lord came to see me this time?"

"I'd like to ask you for a favor." Fran said.

"Help? No problem!" Huang Shang patted his muscular chest, and then said: "Lord City Lord, just say whatever you want. As long as I, Huang Shang, can do it, I will go through fire and water for it."

"This favor concerns the future of the entire Aurora City." Fran said, "If successful, we can even eradicate the Four Yellow Wolves."

After hearing this, Huang Shang's eyes immediately lit up.

Uprooting the Yellow Four Wolfs is something she dreams of doing.

On the other side, the little thug who had been kowtowed a hundred times conveyed Fran's words verbatim to Huang Silang, and then was kicked to the ground by Huang Silang in anger.

"Master Huang! This Lord Fulan is going too far!" Hu Wan said angrily, "She is not hitting Zhu Chongjiu's butt, she is clearly hitting you in the face!"

"Puff!" Huang Silang sprayed a mouthful of tea directly onto Hu Wan's face.

Hu Wan rolled his eyes and immediately realized that he had said something wrong, so he quickly apologized with a smile: "Master, you know what I mean! You have to look at the owner before you beat a dog! Ever since Fulan got the hot spring pass, he has become more and more unscrupulous! If he dares to hit Zhu Chongjiu's butt today, he will dare to hit you in the face tomorrow!"

"Alright!" Huang Silang put down the teacup in his hand angrily, interrupting Hu Wan's words, and then said: "Let's talk about Zhu Chongjiu later! How are the miners' affairs going?"

"Are you talking about the Miners' Union?" Hu Wan paused, then said, "This, this is the mission of Zhu Chongjiu and his men..."

"Then tell me! What's going on! How did Zhu Chongjiu get involved with that Fulan!" Huang Silang pointed at the little thug who had just been kicked down by him.

"Reply... reply to the master." The little thug said, "We were ordered to capture the backbone of the miners' union. When we were about to capture them in one fell swoop, Lady Huang Shang suddenly appeared. She said that the miners were her friends and would not let us take them away. We were no match for her and were beaten up by her.

I had no choice but to go find Master Zhu Chongjiu."

"What happened next?"

"When we arrived at the tavern for the second time, Huang Shang and the miners had already left. Only a mysterious person was left drinking in the ruined tavern! Master, we really didn't know that person was the Lord of Fulan! Otherwise, we wouldn't dare to provoke her even if we had a hundred guts!"

"So Zhu Chongjiu rushed forward without saying anything?"

"Yes." The little thug said, "You also know what happened afterwards. The Lord of Fulan City severely beat Master Zhu Chongjiu and made him kowtow a hundred times. In the end, the Lord of the City said that Zhu Chongjiu broke some magic crystal antique worth 100,000, so he took Zhu Chongjiu back to reward the human captives to pay back the money. One at a time.

Magic crystal coin."

Doesn't that mean Zhu Chongjiu will be rewarded 100,000 times?

Huang Silang and Hu Wan only felt a small hole under their bodies shrinking.

"Master Huang!" Hu Wan said, "I think this must be related to Huang Shang! That girl used to be a miner and was friends with them. Maybe she found Fran to seek shelter! Otherwise, how could Fran, who had been staying in Wenquan Pass, suddenly come to the city of Aurora and meet Zhu Chongjiu by chance!"

"You have a point." Huang Silang said, "Ever since Fran got the gray dwarf's mine, she has been seeking to unify the mineral output of the entire Orila City. To this end, she maliciously raised the miners' wages and benefits, attracting many free miners! In this case, she will definitely try her best to use the miners.

The unions are a group of unruly people.”

"Then...what should we do? You said we won't go to war with Fran for the time being!" Hu Wandao

"Humph! If I can't cure Fulan, how can I not cure Huang Shang? I was very optimistic about this girl. Not only did I transfer her to Wolf Castle, I even wanted to make her my son's concubine! Now it seems that she is an ungrateful person who can never be tamed." Huang Silang said, "Pass my order to the nine major families to arrest Huang Shang together! Then take her away.

All family members, including her seriously ill sister, were placed under house arrest!"

"As you command!" Hu Wan's face was full of smiles. Hu Wan had clashed with Huang Shang many times before, and was even quietly pulled into a corner and beaten up! Hu Wan's eyes were filled with ruthlessness as he was about to get his revenge.

However, before Hu Wan had the time to carry out Huang Silang's mission, the door was opened again.

"What's the matter?" asked Huang Silang.

"Master Huang, that... Master Huang... Master Huang Shang wants to see you."

"What did you say??!!"

Chapter 74 I surrender!

Huang Silang and Hu Wan looked at each other, how could this person come to them? Walking into a trap? Or was he planning to fight to the death?

"She, she came here alone?" Huang Silang asked.

"No... She also kidnapped a man from the Pig Tribe. I don't know that man, but he was beaten black and blue." said the guard.

"Is it Zhu Chongjiu?" Huang Silang asked hurriedly.

"It's not Mr. Pig." The guard paused, then said, "But it looks very similar to Mr. Pig."

Huang Silang immediately ordered his men to defend secretly to prevent Huang Shang from coming in and fighting him. Then he said, "Let her in. I want to see how this little girl explains her behavior."

Not long after, Huang Shang came in holding a man from the Pig Tribe.

The captured man was very thin, and was completely different from Zhu Chongjiu, but his facial features were indeed somewhat similar to Zhu Chongjiu.

"Huang Shang! I heard that you not only let the miners that Mr. Huang wanted to catch escape, but also beat up the Huang family guards who went to catch them!" When Hu Wan saw Huang Shang, he immediately scolded him, "Are you planning to rebel?"

"Mr. Huang wanted to arrest those miners because he wanted to find the mastermind behind the Miners' Union." Huang Shang said, "I had made an appointment with them today to find a way to get close to the president of the Miners' Union. I was about to succeed, but I ran into Mr. Huang's people. So I simply used their tricks to get him.

Gained their trust. Finally, they succeeded in capturing the leader of the union."

"He is the president of the Miners' Union?!" Huang Silang said.

"Yes." Huang Shang said, "The president of the Miners' Union is Zhu Chongba. Coincidentally, this person is also the elder brother of Master Zhu Chongjiu."

"What?!" Huang Silang said in disbelief, "Zhu Chongjiu's brother is actually the president of the union? How come I have never heard him mention that?"

"Of course he won't tell you, Master Huang." Huang Shang said, "This is his stain. Telling it out would only reduce your trust in him. If Master Huang doesn't believe it, you can ask those union members who were arrested earlier. They must know their boss."

"Master Huang! There is something fishy going on here!" Hu Wan stepped forward and said, "Huang Shang has always been close to the miners, and she usually looks down on you, Master Huang! Why did her attitude suddenly change 180 degrees today? I guess she knew that the truth could not be concealed, so she just grabbed a relative of Zhu Chongjiu to frame him.

Putting the blame on others! There is absolutely no good intention behind this."

"I didn't have any good intentions. My sister's illness was getting worse and worse, and I needed a large sum of money to save her! For this reason, I went to beg my former miner friends. I thought we had a life-and-death friendship, and I had saved their lives, so they should have generously donated money to help my sister through the difficult times, but at the critical moment, they shirked the responsibility.

At this point, Huang Shang punched the wall, and the wall immediately dented. Her angry expression moved everyone present (including Huang Silang).

"If Steward Hu Wan doesn't believe it, he can just ask Lord Zhu Chongjiu to come over for a confrontation. As brothers, I think he should know very well what his brother is doing. If I remember correctly, Zhu Chongjiu even tried to kill his brother many times, but never succeeded." Huang Shang said.

"I'm afraid there's no way to confront him. Zhu Chongjiu was arrested by City Lord Fulan because he contradicted him!"

"What!" After hearing this, Huang Shang's face immediately showed an expression of surprise.

Hu Wan frowned and carefully examined Huang Shang's every move. However, no matter how he examined her, Huang Shang's expression was so natural and didn't seem fake at all.

"Okay! It seems that I have wronged you! Huang Shang, you have made a great contribution this time." Huang Silang stood up happily and said.

"I am not interested in merit." Huang Shang said, "Please lend me some money to help my sister see a doctor."

"Okay, okay!" Huang Silang said to Hu Wan, "Send an order to take Huang Shang's sister to the best clinic in Aurora City. Tell the doctors there to cure Huang Shang's illness at all costs!"

"Thank you, Master Huang!" Huang Shang immediately knelt down in front of Huang Silang and kowtowed heavily after hearing this: "I was ignorant before and mistakenly regarded those people as brothers of life and death. From now on, I, Huang Shang, am willing to go through fire and water for Master Huang!"

“Hahahaha!” Huang Silang was in a good mood after hearing this. He personally helped Huang Shang up and said, “You’ve worked hard these past few days. Go and have a good rest first! Let me think about how to reward you this time.”

"Master, I..."

“Don’t refuse!” Huang Silang said, “I want to let everyone in the entire Orila City know that as long as they are loyal to me, Huang Silang, I will never treat them unfairly.”

After dealing with Huang Shang and the pig Chongba she brought with her, the gloom on Huang Silang's face disappeared, and he even hummed a little tune to himself.

If it were normal times, Hu Wan would not have poured cold water on Huang Silang's enthusiasm. But seeing that Huang Shang was about to rise to prominence, he naturally felt unwilling to accept it, so he approached carefully and said, "Master, I still think there is something fishy going on.

"Alright..." Huang Silang waved his hands, and then said: "I know there is a misunderstanding between you and Huang Shang! It's because Huang Shang didn't understand the good of our Huanglang Chamber of Commerce at that time! Now you and she are in the same camp, so let's put the past grievances behind us."

"But, Mr. Huang...what if Huang Shang is acting?"

"Humph! You know Huang Shang's character. She is a straightforward person without any scheming in her heart, otherwise how could she have offended you at that time?" Huang Silang said: "She just said what was in her mind. Forget about acting, even if you let her act! Can she act? Unless she gets some professional performance

Otherwise we would know if she lied.”

"Master, you are absolutely right." Hu Wan said.

"I know you have a lot of tricks." Huang Silang patted Hu Wan on the shoulder and said, "But think about it, what good does it have for her to lie to us? If she captures the president of the miners' union, what do you think she can gain? Hu Wan, Hu Wan, you should have a long-term vision and a broad mind! Don't just believe everything you hear. This is how you judge people.

You still have to learn the art of employing people well."

"What Master Huang taught is right." Hu Wan stopped arguing and immediately lowered his head.

"Okay, you don't need to worry about Huang Shang's affairs. Go and interrogate Zhu Chongba. Make sure to drive all the forces of the Miners' Union to other families within a short period of time." Huang Silang said, "No such messy organization will be allowed to appear in my Huang family's territory in the future."

"As you wish!" Hu Wan thought for a moment, then said, "Then, what about Zhu Chongjiu?"

"Let him stay with Fran for a while for such a short-sighted guy." Huang Silang said angrily, "Humph! Anyway, that Steel Plate City Lord won't be around for long! Margaret and Christina have agreed to the request of our nine families to attack Orila City again! And we have already

The city walls have been rigged. When the time comes, there will be the army of the Holy Roel Empire in front and the army of the nine major families in the back! I don’t believe that this city lord can still escape.”
