Chapter 1752 Solving the Changjin Prefecture Together
Shu Yu took a deep breath, thinking that it was only the end of Chen Shi (7-9 AM), and less than three hours had passed since Meng Yunzheng went back to sleep.
Sleeping for two days and two nights, only five or six hours a night, would be enough to kill you.
Seeing the resistance in her eyes, Qi Lie inwardly groaned. Just as he was considering whether to go to the Meng family's escort agency himself, he heard a familiar voice behind him.
"You were looking for me?"
Shu Yu and Qi Lie turned around at the same time and immediately saw Meng Yunzheng standing not far away.
The latter stepped forward, sized up Qi Lie for a while, and nodded, "It seems that Lord Qi's undercover work was very successful." He wasn't missing any limbs.
Qi Lie laughed heartily, "I can't compare to you guys, who took over the black market and Chenggu County without making a sound. How about it, why don't you make another trip and come with me to take care of Changjin Prefecture as well?"
Shu Yu, "..." First the black market, then the county town, good heavens, now they even have to take down the prefectural city. If they manage to handle this, and the capital is still in chaos, will they have to occupy the capital as well?
The thought of this made Shu Yu shudder, and she shook her head, banishing all those terrifying thoughts from her mind.
Meng Yunzheng had already guessed Qi Lie's purpose for this trip; transporting weapons wouldn't have required his personal involvement.
He must have come for another purpose, and sure enough, he came looking for him.
Fortunately, the most dangerous time in the county town has passed, so he doesn't need to worry too much.
Therefore, after a moment's thought, he agreed, "When do we set off?" The sooner the matter is resolved, the sooner he can have peace of mind.
It's already late November, and the Lunar New Year is just around the corner. He doesn't want to be busy with these things during the New Year.
Qi Lie immediately replied, "Now."
Seeing his anxious look, Meng Yunzheng realized that the situation in the prefectural city was not optimistic.
He turned to Shu Yu and said, "Shu Yu, I'll accompany Lord Qi on this trip. I'll leave things to you here."
What else could Shu Yu say? She knew he would definitely help, but she was a little worried about his health.
"Don't worry, leave this to me. Just make sure you get plenty of rest, and don't rush into danger. We're all waiting for you to come back. Safety first."
Meng Yunzheng took her hand and smiled, "Okay."
He left with Qi Lie alone, while Xia Yan was left behind.
Qi Lie let out a breath. Just then, the handover of weapons was completed, so he didn't delay any longer and quickly led a group of people away from the city gate cautiously and warily.
Shu Yu ran back up the city wall and watched their figures gradually disappear into the distance before coming down.
Lu Wu planned to go back to the county government office to take a nap, and the other laborers also planned to go back to the black market.
Although they longed to stay on the ground and feel the warmth of the sun outside, there were still many things piling up in Chenggu County, and their identities and household registrations could not be processed. With so many people staying in the city, not to mention anything else, finding a place to live was a problem.
Moreover, they still had a lot of things to do back in the black market.
Shu Yu escorted them back to the abandoned mansion and said to the leading laborer, "Don't worry, once things are settled here, we will verify your identities and process your household registration as soon as possible."
The foreman chuckled, his smile bright and relaxed, a far cry from the numbness and lifelessness he had displayed in the black market.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu. We'll head back now. Oh, and the girls asked me to tell you all their thanks as well."
