"What do you think the outcome will be?" Xiatian Asked the Executioner.
The executioner glanced at Xia Chen, then a smile appeared on his face.
He didn't answer Xiatian's question, but Xiatian understood what the Executioner meant. Smart people didn't need to say much.
The current situation was clear. Phalanx City would definitely win this battle, but they would also suffer great losses. It could even be said that Phalanx City would suffer a lot and many people would die. The City Lord's decision was that no matter how many people died, they had to protect the dignity of Phalanx City.
"Then what do you plan to do?" Xiatian glanced at the Executioner again.
"I promised the City Lord that I would help." The Executioner said.
"I suggest that you don't get involved in this. I feel that this matter isn't simple." Xiatian said indifferently.
Although Xia Chen didn't know much about this matter for the time being, he was an experienced and knowledgeable person. He could analyze the situation from the overall situation of the Phalanx City, and he could even see what the outcome would be, because he had already experienced too many of these things.
Therefore, he also understood that many people would die this time. Ordinary people would die, and people like them who wanted to stand up would also die.
The most important thing was that they were originally local gangsters. Although the City Lord spoke well, in reality, when the time came, the people who would rush to the front would definitely be the bosses of their districts and their people.
In other words, they would be used as cannon fodder.
In the eyes of the City Lord, there was only the big picture. Anyone could be sacrificed.
"Do you think I have a way out? The bosses of the other three districts have already stepped forward. If I retreat now, what do you think the City Lord will do? Even if they don't attack me now, they will definitely attack me after the battle. "The Executioner laughed bitterly.
Hearing this, Xiatian understood.
The City Lord wanted to take the opportunity to deal with them.
In fact, in this battle, regardless of whether they made a move or not, the City Lord would make a move against them.
However, if they didn't go, it would give the City Lord a reason to attack them. If they attacked, the City Lord might give them some face and let them continue to be the local tyrants in the city. However, in this battle, their casualties would be very serious.
In other words, his vitality was greatly damaged.
In this way, the City Lord could be considered to have weakened their strength.
Gulp!
Xia Zhi stood up and said directly, "I think it's better to take over the mountain and be the king than to live an ignoble life."
Step!
After saying that, Xiatian directly walked outside.
When he reached the door, he stopped and turned around. "I owe you guys a favor for treating me to a drink."
After saying that, Xiatian walked outside again.
This time, he did not turn back.
The Executioner picked up the wine in his hand and drank it in one gulp. Then, he said, "Genius, if he can help me, I might be able to build a city in the future. However, he's a phoenix and I'm not a parasol tree."
"Executioner, it's all because I'm useless. I couldn't convince him," said Big Beard.
"No, it has nothing to do with you. His strongest point isn't his ability but his foresight. His foresight is much further than ours. Although I haven't talked to him much, I can tell from his spirit that he's not a simple person. It can even be said that he's someone who has seen the world." The Executioner stood up and looked at Big Beard. "I have an important task for you."
"Executioner, please give me your orders," said Big Beard.
"Sell everything that can be sold and exchange it for money. Then, bring the money out to Snow Fox Mountain. Remember, you have to sell it in the most low-key way. Even if it's half the price, you have to sell it. Don't make a fuss about it," said the Executioner.
Eh!
Big Beard was stunned.
"What are you waiting for? Be quick," said the Executioner.
"Yes," Big Beard said and ran out.
Sigh!
The Executioner sighed. "It's been so many years. It seems like the City Lord really doesn't have the heart to tolerate us."
He had thought about this before, but he comforted himself. He thought that although they were the bosses of the city, they maintained the balance of Phalanx City. Therefore, the City Lord wouldn't touch them.
But now, it seemed that the City Lord's ambition wasn't small.
Not only did he want to deal with the people from the seventy-two caves, but he also wanted to take them down. Even if he spared them on account of their contributions, he would definitely suppress their forces.
After chatting with Xiatian for a while, the Executioner pointed out the last doubt in his heart.
Phew!
Xiatian let out a long breath. He hated this kind of scheming. But no matter where it was, scheming would always happen.
The City Lord of Phalanx City was a very ambitious person.
Xiatian had seen this kind of person before. Therefore, Xiatian could even guess the City Lord's thoughts and actions.
It wasn't even a guess. Whatever Xiatian said, it must be what the City Lord did.
Xiatian was bored and returned to the city gate.
"Big Hat, you're very punctual. You can't sell your things, but you still come here every day." Xiatian looked at Big Hat and said.
"Those who are willing will take the bait!" Big Hat said indifferently.
Eh!
When he heard this, Xia Xia was also stunned, because this was something that Jiang Taigong had said on Earth.
"I can't afford it. Otherwise, I would really want to buy it. That way, you wouldn't have to come here every day." Xiatian said.
"Then how much money do you have?" Big Hat looked at Xiatian.
"Forty thousand. I just earned it." Xiatian said.
"Okay, give me the money and I'll give you the formation plate." Big Hat said again.
Hearing Big Hat's words, Xiatian didn't waste any time. He never cared about money. Although he didn't have much money now, he was very clear that he would have a lot in the future. Moreover, he was very interested in Big Hat. Therefore, he took out his money.
Big Hat took his money and then put away the stall in front of him. "I'll take the money. I'll give you the formation plate in a few days."
Eh!
Xiatian's face was black. If Big Hat did business with others, others would think that he was crazy. How could he accept the money and not give the item? However, Xiatian smiled and said, "Okay."
Big Hat raised his head and looked at Xiatian. "Aren't you afraid that I'll run away?"
