Chapter 188
Although he knew that if Yang Yang wanted to send troops, he had to pay a certain price. After all, Yang Yang was an alien and they were not binding on him. Moreover, although Baidi County was an administrative area in Jiaozhou, Zhou Cheng really didn't know how big Baidi County was.
If Yang Yang is really allowed to be the prefect of Jiaozhi County, wouldn’t it be like driving away a wolf and welcoming another tiger?
Even though Zhou Cheng is not good at calculating and military tactics, he has been immersed in the officialdom for so many years, and he can still figure out such things. Although he still doesn't know how strong Yang Yang is, since he can defeat the Shi family, his strength will definitely be stronger than him. At that time, there will be no more position in Jiaozhou.
Zhou Cheng didn't say anything, just frowned and lowered his head.
Chen Gong looked at the two of them with a smile. To be honest, he really made a powerful gesture today. If he hadn't been able to speak to Zhou Cheng like this in this special period, he would have wanted to ask for an official from him? Don't be funny, even if Zhou Cheng has a good temper, he would have arrested him and thrown him into the cell.
If Yang Yang was here, he would definitely say, what kind of negotiation is this? He is simply here to ask for an official position.
Indeed, Chen Gong came here to help him get an official position, and at least he was a prefect. Chen Gong also knew that Baidi City was short of talents at present, and the way to solve this problem faster was to help Yang Yang's official position. As long as Yang Yang's official position was large enough, more talents could know it, and there would be a greater chance of recruiting talents.
"Uh, Lord Chen, have you made a mistake?" Even a person as wise as Huang Shudu was shocked by Chen Gong's conditions at this moment.
In fact, Huang Shudu and Zhou Cheng were ready to exert some blood. Who made Yang Yang a member of the court? But his soldiers were not restricted by the court!
Chen Gong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not wrong, you heard it wrong. We hope that Lord Zhou can recommend it to the emperor so that Lord Yang can successfully serve as the prefect of Jiaozhi County. You know, Jiaozhou is originally located on the edge of the Han Dynasty and is not valued, and the people's lives are not easy. And our Hepu is even worse, so we want Lord Yang to change to a better environment."
When Zhou Cheng heard this, he almost fell out of breath. What does it mean to change to a better environment? If Yang Yang comes, can he still be safe? So he can't agree to such conditions even if he is beaten to death.
"No, Jiaozhi County is definitely not possible. What's more, I can't decide such a big thing, so you should change the conditions." Zhou Cheng said very seriously.
"Does Lord Zhou think Jiaozhi County is not good?" Chen Gong immediately asked back.
Of course, do you need to ask? Zhou Cheng nodded for granted.
Chen Gong wanted this effect. He pretended to be very readily and said: "Okay, since Lord Zhou thinks that Jiaozhi County is not good, then we will take a step back and we choose Hepu County. Lord Zhou, when I came just now, I saw many people carrying their bags and walking out of the city. If there were no powerful soldiers to settle in to comfort the people, it would be very unfavorable to the future battle situation!"
After expressing his true thoughts, Chen Gong threatened a few words without being soft or hard. Of course, this cannot be regarded as a threat, it can only be a reminder. Then, he seemed to think of something again and reminded him: "Mr. Zhou, I heard a message on the road, and I heard that Shi Xie was still in contact with the barbarians in the south."
Chen Gong didn't say much else. I believe that with the wisdom of Zhou Cheng and Huang Shudu, he should be able to think of something.
Sure enough, when Chen Gong finished speaking, Zhou Cheng and Huang Shudu, who were still thinking about his conditions, raised their heads. Both of them knew that Chen Gong had no need to deceive them in this issue. If the fact is really like this, it would be more troublesome. Zhou Cheng was the governor of Jiaozhou. If the barbarians in the south were invaded at this time, then he would not have to be the official.
"The Shi family, the court treats you very well, and actually colludes with foreign tribes." Zhou Cheng said gritting his teeth, "Okay, tell Yang Yang, I have agreed to your conditions. As long as you can help suppress the uprising of the rioters in the Xiashi family, I will immediately ask for credit from the court for Lord Yang, and I will definitely let him take the position of the prefect of Hepu County."
Zhou Cheng, who was a little excited, became a little excited when he spoke. Of course, this is what Chen Gong wanted.
Even if Zhou Cheng said this verbally, Chen Gong believed that he would keep his promise. If he didn't, it wouldn't be Zhou Cheng. Before coming here, Chen Gong had prepared some things and learned about the character of the governor of Jiaozhou.
Therefore, in order to avoid any changes, Chen Gong immediately said: "Mr. Zhou, since that's the case, I will notify Lord Yang immediately. I believe that the army of Baidi City will arrive in the day."
After saying that, Chen Gong asked someone to send a message to Baidi City.
Originally, he thought that such a negotiation would take at least one or two days, but unexpectedly, it was completed without even a whole morning. Chen Gong knew that his lord knew people from the court, but it was not that easy to be promoted to prefect. Although Yang Yang is not short of military achievements now, he lacks someone to ask for me and recommend him.
If Zhang Rang recommends it, it will definitely be opposed by court officials. After all, Zhang Rang is just a eunuch. No matter how powerful he is, he will still encounter a lot of obstacles in the appointment of the prefect. But it is different with Zhou Cheng's recommendation. After all, Zhou Cheng is also the chief lord of Jiaozhou, what he said must be more convincing than Zhang Rang.
In this way, the imperial officials were recommended by Zhou Cheng, and Zhang Rang Meiyan was in front of the emperor, not to mention that Yang Yang did have the achievements of suppressing Hepu's rebellion. Even if he was just an alien, it would be difficult to not be promoted.
Huang Shudu, who was sitting beside him, sighed without a trace. He did not expect that Yang Yang would have such a powerful subordinate. If Chen Gong had not grasped Zhou Cheng's weakness and did not give Zhou Cheng time to think, perhaps Chen Gong would have been unable to achieve his goal. However, Shudu also knew that this is his friend, he was concerned about the people and rarely had time to consider himself.
Thinking of Yang Yang's deeds, Huang Shudu always felt that he had chosen the wrong ally for his friend. But now that he could not change it even if he wanted to. If Yang Yang could really put down the rebellion in Jiaozhou, it would be a good thing. At least the people of Jiaozhou would benefit...
Yang Yang, who was already ready to go, received Chen Gong's information and immediately notified Huang Zhong, Han Dang and Zhou Wen. When everything was ready, a team of 50,000 was teleported to the Dragon Writing through the teleportation array.
Fortunately, the system has not yet determined that the Dragon Emblem has entered the war mode, otherwise, these 50,000 people would have to go to the Dragon Emblem.
