… …
At noon, the order was issued.
The entire Running Rain City was boiling because of this.
In the morning, when they heard some idle people talking about the new City Lord of this city, everyone was amused. Who would have thought that this Raining Rain City actually had a new City Lord?
Of course, although it was lively, there were only a few people who really took this decree seriously.
The army stationed in Running Rain City still occupied their territory and remained unmoved. As for the people who relied on Running Rain City to make a living, they didn't care. They only thought that the so-called new city lord was a greenhorn who didn't understand the situation of Running Rain City and dared to issue such a self-destructive decree.
In the afternoon, there were still no armed forces that moved their camp. In fact, there weren't many native residents in the entire Raining Rain City. Although some people who wanted to earn money hoped that Raining Rain City could be as normal as other cities, every time they saw the endless barracks and the flags with different colors and totems, they knew that it was unrealistic to realize this idea.
"Alas, I don't think the new city lord will live past tonight. How could those powerful warlords take a small city lord seriously?" A hunter shook his head and said.
"I heard that the people of Hu Clan have returned to the city. I don't know if it's their idea?" Another hunter who hunted coyotes said.
"This city was destroyed in the hands of Hu Clan. Back then, Running Rain City was so prosperous. Those merchants outside didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy a small house in Running Rain City and settle here. Now, when people from other places hear Running Rain City, it's like they heard a bandit nest or a city of sin."
Several hunters carried the meat they had just hunted and looked at the barbarian army on the street. They couldn't help but talk.
There were very few ordinary people who were still living in Running Rain City. If they didn't have a little ability, they would be gnawed until not even their bones were left.
These hunters also provided meat and game to the army. They were safe and sound because of some protection. If it were some ordinary merchants, let alone keeping their money, it was hard to say whether they could keep their lives.
Someone was in charge of Running Rain City.
This was, of course, a good thing for people who made a decent living.
Unfortunately, Rainwater City had been invaded by too many forces. It was like a dark cloud covering the city. There was no way to see the future!
"Brothers, how much is the meat?" Zhu Minglang asked as he wandered around and saw the hunters.
A hunter was pushing a cart. There were several wild boars, wild bulls, and wild wolves on the cart. All of them had been skinned, their internal organs removed, and some cleaning done.
There was no livelihood in the Runyu City. To put it simply, there was no one who sold vegetables or rice. The firewood for the fire had to be chopped by Haoye, who practiced swordsmanship. It was rare to see prey selling freshly hunted meat. Zhu Minglang hurriedly went forward to inquire.
"The meat is not for sale. It's for the soldiers in the Hut Camp." The hunter with the bow and arrow on his back said.
"Then you don't have to send it over," Zhu Minglang said.
"Young man, you must have just arrived in Runyu City, right?" The archer hunter asked with a smile.
"Uncle, how did you know?" Zhu Minglang was very surprised.
"First of all, there is no one in Runyu City who would spend money to buy meat. If you come from a more powerful force, you will directly snatch it away without any explanation. What's the point of talking about money? It's already good enough to leave us a handcart. Secondly, Luying is not a kind person. If we don't give them the meat they want to eat before dinner, maybe they will eat us!" The archer hunter said.
Zhu Minglang really didn't expect that he would become a foreigner by selling some meat …
"Uncle, I'm not joking with you. If the meat is sent to the Hut Camp, then there's really no need to send it over. Because they colluded with bandits for huge profits, I've already ordered them to be eliminated. Those leaders who don't have meat to eat and want to eat human flesh will be beheaded in public in the evening in the ruins of the market." Zhu Minglang also laughed.
The hunters were stunned when they heard this.
Early in the morning, they arrogantly stopped a few hunters and threw some money to them to hunt. How could it be that in less than a day's time, they were wiped out?
This was not a joke!
After putting down the wooden cart in his hand, the young man with the hunting knife immediately ran forward. After passing this street corner, they would enter the Hut Camp's territory. Whether they were eliminated or not, they would know at a glance.
"May I ask who young master is?" The archer with the bow and arrow on his back asked.
"Zhu Minglang, the governor of this city. The decree issued at noon was issued by me." Zhu Minglang said.
A few of the hunters revealed looks of surprise as they carefully scrutinized Zhu Minglang.
I've never heard of any big shot visiting the marketplace. He's all by himself!
"Uncle … Uncle Huang!"
The young hunter ran back from the corner of the street. His face was extremely ugly, as if he had seen the scene inside the gates of hell.
"Dead, they're all dead, so many people died!"
The young hunter ran back with a horrified face. When he looked at Zhu Minglang again, there was a bit of awe and fear in his eyes.
Hut Camp was the Runyu City's evil army and bandits, but they were eliminated just like that!
"So it's the new governor. We country people didn't recognize you. Don't blame us, don't blame us." Uncle Huang realized that the young man in front of him was really the governor and hurriedly bowed.
Seeing that the other hunters had yet to react, Uncle Huang tugged at them.
When the people saw the officials, they naturally had to kneel. Even though there had been no official in Runyu City for a long time, Uncle Huang knew that the necessary etiquette must not be neglected.
"Get up, Uncle. Can you sell the meat to me?" Zhu Minglang put on a smile again.
"Young master, is this your first time being an official?" Uncle Huang asked in a low voice.
“????” Zhu Minglang was puzzled. How did the other party see this? Did he not have the aura of a big shot? After all, he was too approachable.
"As an official, how could he buy the meat of the people? This meat is naturally a small gift to our new governor. It can be considered a sincere gift from us hunters." Uncle Huang said.
"… …"
You've won, Uncle Huang!
"Uncle, how much is the price. If you are the good people of this city, you should also want to restore the livelihood of the people as soon as possible. You should be able to do business according to the rules and have the law to protect your life and money. If you suffer injustice, you can report it to the government and the government will seek justice for you … So, this transaction can be regarded as a new beginning for Runyu City!" Zhu Minglang was high-spirited. His words showed that he was different from those bandits and evil army.
The thick clouds were pushed aside by something, and a beam of righteous light sprinkled on Zhu Minglang's head, making Zhu Minglang's figure tall and majestic.
Several hunters who were doing their job were really stunned by Zhu Minglang's imposing manner. Then, they offered a price that made Zhu Minglang's face half bright and half dark.
