Chapter 24 Union
Zhenlin City is developing rapidly and growing.
On the contrary, the development of Jinyan City, a neighbor more than a thousand miles away, can only be described as thriving.
The population is lost in large quantities, the competition for goods is weak, and it is no match for force. It can only become a place for commodities dumping in Zhenlincheng and a place for supplying resources such as population, minerals, etc.
However, in a few years, the decline of Jinyan City has shocked the leaders of this city.
The originally huge and prosperous Jinyan City has become a younger brother of a small border town. Even though many people never verbally admit it, they still acknowledge that fact in their hearts.
Regardless of that aspect, economy, technology, urban management, military and education, Jinyancheng is far behind that emerging city.
Even the only advantage - population, Jinyan City was surpassed by Zhenlin City this year, which broke through the fragile bottom line in the hearts of many big names in Jinyan City.
Especially when they learned that Zhenlin City planned to build a track to lead to Jinyan City to accelerate economic development, the dissatisfaction and anger that had accumulated in their long-term hearts finally erupted.
They gathered together, discussed countermeasures, and slapped the table angrily.
"Zhenlincheng, they are so forced!"
"I can't tolerate it anymore! If this continues, our families will be completely finished sooner or later!"
"Did you see it? A few years ago, I asked you to join forces and kill the Zhenlin City completely while it was not full of wings! You have many concerns, but now? They are going to attack us!"
"What should I do? What should I do? I will really fight against Zhenlincheng to the death?"
"Can we fight them?"
A question from a head of a family made the scene that was boiling for a while and quieted for a short time.
Deadly quiet.
Everyone asked themselves, with Jinyan City's strength, can you really compete with Zhenlin City?
Today, Zhenlin City has 20,000 elite village guards, 200 monks, and the mysterious Gudan hidden powerful man... 1 person.
The strength on paper is much stronger than that of Jinyan City.
Even if you ignore the monks and the mysterious powerful men in Gudan stage, just the 20,000 rural protection troops can make Jinyan City feel suffocated and unable to fight.
In the face of such a powerful force, even if the heads of the family present said something similar to "a slap in the death of the fish", the actual situation is that the net may be as intact as the fish that struggled died.
"Or why, please ask the immortals from Chixing Mountain to go down the mountain and destroy the Zhenlin City!"
Five thousand miles northeast of Jinyan City, there is Chixing Mountain. There is a large sect on the mountain with countless immortals, including many immortals above the Gudan stage.
The Chixing Mountain sect is the highest ruling class within a radius of thousands of miles, including Jinyancheng and Zhenlincheng, all within its control scope... but they did not send a dedicated person to manage it, nor did they have the energy or resources to manage it. They just spoke out and warned the surrounding sects not to cross the boundaries.
With the powerful strength of Chixing Mountain, if you want to deal with Zhenlin City, you don’t need to send out many immortals, two or three people will be able to completely destroy Zhenlin City.
only……
Are the immortals willing to leave their practice caves and go to the mortal world to crush a few "ants" in their eyes?
A head of the family shook his head: "I can't help. Last year, a child of my Qi family mentioned this to his master, but he was scolded by his master! They are immortals and do not care about the affairs of the mortal world. If they are too involved in the affairs of the mortal world, it will be unfavorable to practice."
In the eyes of immortals, the mortal world is called "Red World". There are many causes and effects, and the karma is chaotic, which can easily interfere with the mind and nature and affect practice. Therefore, they stay away from it and are generally unwilling to interfere in the mortal world.
Of course, if something serious happened in the mortal world or a rare treasure appeared, the immortals were willing to go down the mountain at this time.
So if you want to invite the immortal, you must at least take out the treasure that makes the immortal feel moved. Otherwise, just a few words will make the immortal go down the mountain, and the faces of the ants will be too big.
"This is not OK, that is not OK, what should I do?"
"Are you just sitting here waiting to die?"
A certain head of the family stood up and shouted, while the other heads bowed their heads and were speechless.
They seemed to have no good way to stop the Zhenlin City.
"I have a plan here. Even though I can't destroy the Zhenlin City, I won't be able to make it easier."
At this time, among the heads of the family, the head of the Gao family, who had not spoken much, suddenly spoke and opened his eagle-like eyes.
Everyone was shocked.
Someone immediately asked, "What's the plan? Tell me what you want."
The head of the Gao family bought a secret, glanced at everyone, and said, "Whether this plan can be successful does not depend on the strength of the family, but on the unity of the families! If the families are not in harmony, no matter how good my plan is, it will be futile."
"I am united in my heart. As long as I can defeat Zhenlin City, my family will definitely be united!"
"Speak quickly, tell me what the plan is!"
The heads of the family looked eagerly at the head of the Gao family, hoping to hear the trick in his mouth.
Seeing that the heads of the family were so expectant, the head of the Gao family said:
"This plan is simple, just two words, blockade."
"The reason why Zhenlin City is so rich is simply because it sells all kinds of commercial goods, and most of their commercial goods have to pass through Jinyan City."
"If we intercept these commercial goods and prevent them from passing, or impose high road taxes, how can we sell them out when we see their commercial goods?"
"The other is the population. From tomorrow on, Jinyancheng is not allowed to immigrate to Zhenlincheng. Even a beggar is not allowed to immigrate. People from Jinyancheng must let them stay in Jinyancheng!"
"There are also Yaojinshi. From tomorrow, each company will not be allowed to sell it to Zhenlincheng, and no one is allowed to buy it! We will never allow it. After our ore is sold to them at a cheap price, we will buy Yaojinshi from them!"
"This is the only way to keep the things in our hands among the families. If we do not block Zhenlin City, our families will sooner or later have nothing!"
After the head of the Gao family finished speaking, there was no approval sounding below, but instead there was a lot of worry.
"What should we do if our family is blocked like this? How to resist it?"
"The blockade is not possible! It is better for each family to piece together a large sum of money and invite a strong monk to assassinate Zhang Shanhe. This is more reliable."
"Assassination? Are there few assassins sent by various families over the years? Isn't Zhang Shanhe alive yet? But the assassin sent by Zhang Shanhe wants the head of the family to die, so he will let the head of the family die."
"It seems that only a blockade can save our family."
"But what should we do if Zhenlincheng counterattack? Can we fight them?"
"As long as our families unite, in this Jinyan City, we are still not afraid of the Zhenlin City. My families have a million years of foundation, and are they afraid of a city that has been less than ten years old?"
"Yes! We join forces, Jinyan City, we will always have the final say!"
"But... like this blockade, how can I do my Yang family's business?"
There was a head of the family in the field who was extremely hesitant and had many concerns.
Because over the past decade, his Yang family has established extremely close commercial relations with Zhenlincheng. Although the head of the Yang family is not interested in Zhenlincheng, this does not affect the Yang family's sales of Yaojinshi from its own mine to Zhenlincheng, it does not affect the Yang family's caravan, and the exclusive sales rights of glass mirrors in a big city, as well as the exclusive agency rights of more than a dozen commodities such as ceramics, Yaojin, perfume, fur and clothing.
These agency rights can bring huge profits of millions of spiritual coins to the Yang family every year.
Grudges belong to grudges, interests belong to interests.
The heads of these families present were very clear-headed.
Even the head of the Gao family who offered the blockade strategy, his family also has a interest relationship with the Zhenlin City.
So, are the controllers of these families really willing to give full play to the heart-wrenching interests and adopt an extremely strict blockade on the Zhenlin City?
But surprisingly, the Gao family's head made another statement to understand the ideological work of all the heads present, reached an agreement, and prepared to unite and block Zhenlin City!
They are determined to give Zhenlincheng a good look!
...
A few days later.
Zhenlincheng Council Hall.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the city councillor Wu Bao's fist hit the desk heavily, his face was extremely ugly, and his eyes were filled with fire: "Do you don't know how to write the word "death" in Jinyan City?"
He shouted: "Send troops, send troops immediately, and destroy those rabbit grandchildren who are overestimating their abilities!"
"Dangdang~"
Zhou Ming, who was sitting on the top, tapped his knuckles on the table, attracting everyone's attention, and said to Wu Bao: "Don't be impatient for a moment."
Zhou Ming smiled: "Those guys in Jinyan City, this time with the guidance of experts, can come up with such a ruthless move."
Wu Bao stood up dissatisfiedly: "City Chief, they have all achieved this point, why are we hesitating? Fight! Destroy the Jinyan City!"
"Yes! The city chief, just swallowed Jinyan City and saved them from stumbling on us! Not only did they finish it, but they also strengthened our Zhenlin City!"
One person below stood up to agree.
Zhou Ming waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and said, "It is easy to destroy Jinyan City, but it is difficult to eliminate the roots. What's more, many of the outstanding children of those families practice in Chixing Mountain. Who knows if there will be a few immortals among these children?"
"The sects should not be provoked for the time being. I have a better way to solve these families... and solve them more thoroughly."
"What method? How to solve it?"
