The houses here were being sold like wildfire.
On the other side, Xiatian and Long Huowang secretly rushed to Cheetah City.
Xiatian and the others had always been in an advantageous position. No matter who they fought, they had never lost, and their development was very smooth. But in fact, Xiatian knew that they were not enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of a big force. So if they were content with the status quo, it would not be long before Luoshi City became a history.
A history that no one remembered.
A fleeting cloud.
No matter how great your experience was, as long as your result was bad, you would be useless in the end.
Now there were too many enemies in Luoshi City. It was absolutely impossible to rely on fighting alone.
So Xiatian's purpose of coming out this time was to unite.
There were only three families in Cheetah City.
The Castellan Mansion, the Wang Family, and the Wen Family.
Xiatian definitely could not contact the Castellan Mansion, because they must have been threatened by the people above the Lyu Family, and they had insulted Lü Fengxian. As for the Wang Family, Xiatian had openly declared war with them. If he contacted them, he would be asking for humiliation. The Wen Family was left. It was not so easy to talk to the Wen Family.
However, no matter how difficult it was, Xiatian had to talk to them.
Because if he talked to the Wen Family, Luoshi City would not be fighting alone.
They would have helpers outside. Although all of this depended on interests, at least Xiatian and the others would not be attacked from both sides.
Now what Luoshi City needed most was time.
Enough time to develop.
As long as Luoshi City was given a chance to develop, it would definitely become a great city in the future.
Recently, Xiatian was studying the tools to purify black gold. If the research was successful, Xiatian would not be so busy, and he could also mass produce black soldiers. Although he would still limit the quantity when he sold it, Luoshi City would have a real property by then.
Moreover, Luoshi City now had to face a very big problem.
That was conscription.
Without Bing, who would maintain order?
Although Xiatian and the others were still in control, they couldn't control so many people all the time. Once there were too many people, there would definitely be friction. When the time came, they would be too busy. The more people there were, the more difficult it would be to manage. Moreover, there would be trouble with external enemies. In front of a big power, only with a strong army would they have the right to speak.
This was also the reason why those large clans would rather spend 90% of their annual expenditure to raise a large number of experts.
Because if you don't have soldiers, you won't be able to speak with a firm voice. Others can deal with you however they want.
On the contrary, if you had a large number of experts, then the other party would have no choice but to look up to you.
This was the role of the army.
"City Lord, can we do it this time?" Long Huowang Asked.
"Not necessarily, but if we don't do anything, it definitely won't work. If we work hard, it might work," Xiatian said.
"Yes." Long Huowang nodded. He felt that what Xiatian said was very reasonable.
Cheetah City.
When the two came to Cheetah City, they were very careful. After all, they had just offended Brother Long in Cheetah City.
If they were accidentally discovered by Brother Long's people.
The consequences would be very serious.
Xiatian and Long Huowang arrived at the Wen Family.
Naturally, he couldn't come empty-handed. This time, he directly took a very high quality Black Weapon.
Then, he gave the guard 50 Yuan coins.
It had to be said that Xiatian was definitely generous.
Because 50 Yuan coins was not enough for these guards to earn in a year.
"Wait here. I have to inform the steward first." The guard took the money and naturally had to do something.
"City Lord, you're really good." Long Huowang gave him a thumbs up.
"You have to know how to spend money. If you don't take the money, even if you talk until you're exhausted, the other party won't show you the way. Sometimes, money is very useful." Xiatian's skill was called gift-giving. Although gift-giving sounded very easy, in fact, most people would not do it for the sake of face.
But Xiatian was different.
As long as he could achieve his goal, he didn't care about the money.
Soon, the steward came out from inside.
"Please come in." The steward didn't talk too much nonsense and directly invited Xiatian and Long Huowang in without asking who Xiatian and Long Huowang were.
Xiatian also took the opportunity to give the steward a storage bag with 500 Yuan coins.
He understood that if he wanted to get through this relationship, he had to please the people on this line.
Only then could he see the steward.
If he didn't even see the steward, then whatever he said would be in vain.
The steward also quickly put away the Yuan coins and then led Xiatian to a reception room.
"You're from Luoshi City, right?" Asked the steward.
"Yes, we're here this time because …"
"Needless to say, I've been a steward for so many years, I understand. But I have to remind you that the City Lord Mansion has ordered that we are absolutely not allowed to help your Luoshi City in any way, so the Master of the Family will certainly not help you." The steward took Xiatian's money and naturally explained the matter to Xiatian. Even if he didn't succeed in the end, he would explain to Xiatian why.
"Is there any other way?" Xiatian quietly handed over another storage bag.
The steward put away the storage bag. "I'll show you the way. Our Wen Family has The Seventh Princes. Although he doesn't fight with others on the surface, I watched him grow up. You can go to the east of the city to find him. It may be useful."
"Well, thank you, steward. If you have the opportunity to come to Luoshi City in the future, I will go out of the city to welcome you personally," Xiatian said.
"You're welcome." The steward sent Xiatian and others out.
He took so much money from Xiatian, so naturally, his face was full of smiles all the time.
"By the way, it's better not to tell the Wen Family, otherwise it won't be good for you," the steward reminded.
"I understand!" Xiatian understood that the Master of the Wen Family needed to express his position in Cheetah City, so even if they could cooperate in secret, they must not let others know. Once it was known, the Wen Family would directly abandon them.
Xiatian understood this point.
When the soldiers of Huaxia went to other countries for special training, the other side didn't let them wear their country's military uniform because they didn't want others to know that they had dealings with Huaxia.
To put it bluntly, there was still one sentence: Weak countries had no diplomacy.
After leaving Luoshi City, Long Huowang complained, "City Lord, I think that steward is simply a greedy villain. Can we still succeed this time?"
"We have succeeded." Xiatian smiled and then rushed directly to the east of the city.
