The head of the Li family had once instilled in Li the hunter a lot of things about the Jiang family's ruthlessness, including how the Jiang family had connections in the court in the past.
This made him suspect that Jiang Yan had some bad intentions. If that was the case, he would never cooperate with Jiang Yan even if he died.
"Just let Boss Li state the facts." Jiang Yan told Li Liehu in a calm tone. Boss Li saw that his nephew was much older than Jiang Yan but he was not as patient as others. He thought that if Jiang Yan really wanted to trick him, he might not even realize it?
"What do you want me to say?" Li the hunter was puzzled. Li the boss was so disappointed with his friend that he simply stopped talking.
"Just tell her about the conflict between the Li and Jiang families." Jiang Yan answered Li Liehu patiently.
"That's it?"
"Yes." Jiang Yan nodded. He didn't need Li Liehu to do anything else. He would take care of the rest.
"City Lord, there's a letter for you!" Xu Ning was still racking her brains over the ribbon-cutting ceremony and banquet for the completion of Xiacheng, when someone below hurriedly handed her a letter.
It was a letter written by Jiang Yan to her. In the letter, he first told her that he was on his way back, and directly stated in the letter that he wanted to exchange the two cities for her cooperation in permanently providing him with explosives.
At the same time, Jiang Yan also mentioned in the letter that he would bring his old friend to meet her when he returned this time.
An old friend? From the Western Regions, could it be Uncle Li?
Xu Ning had followed Qingfeng Village into the Western Regions in the beginning, and he knew that all the people from Qingfeng Village had been arranged outside the Western Regions by Jiang Yan.
"Bao, will Jiang Shaoheng bring Uncle Li and the others with him this time?"
"Yes, players. After the two cities were taken, everyone from Qingfeng Village also participated."
"So, Uncle Li and Jiang Shaoheng have reached an agreement, right? Are they planning to change the identities of the people in Qingfeng Village?"
"Yes, players, so Master Li and Hunter Li will agree to cooperate with Jiang Yan again."
Xu Ning pondered. Jiang Yan had given her the two cities, and his concern for Qingfeng Village was only part of the reason. Although Jiang Yan's proposal to permanently keep her explosives sounded like she was at a disadvantage, the explosives were in her hands, and the initiative was hers.
It’s different if the two real cities are in her hands. Naturally, she will not give them up.
"Jiang Shaoheng, you are doing it on purpose this time. You can say that it is inconvenient for him to take Xia City, but it is not inconvenient for him to take the two cities in the Western Regions." Xu Ning saw that the drunkard had other intentions, but since he was about to give it up, Xu Ning was naturally willing to take it.
After all, those are two cities!
"Player, this is really sincere from the other party, it would be a shame not to take it!" Treasure Box felt that Xu Ning had no intention of rejecting it, so he also advised him.
"You are right. Although you look like someone who has been bribed, I also think it makes sense. After all, if you don't take the resources, there are plenty of people who will snatch them away." She didn't want to give up the opportunity that was delivered to her door. She also wanted to manage the two cities well. Even if Daqing fell apart again, she could take the money from Happy Valley and take the Xu family to hide in her own city. She would live a carefree life in the future.
"City Lord, should we set off a few thunderbolts to celebrate on the day we cut the ribbon?" A manager appointed by Xu Ning suggested. They were actually afraid of war and hoped that Xia City would shock the outside world on the first day of its completion.
Xu Ning understood their desire to live and work in peace and contentment. "Our city walls and gates can't even be struck down by thunderbolts, so using thunderbolts to demonstrate our power won't make much sense. Don't worry, when the ribbon-cutting ceremony comes, we have even more powerful methods."
