The Gu family's Gu family's city of the Kou Xi Empire!
Regardless of whether it was the Holy Dragon Empire's Corsican Province or the current Corsican Empire, the Gu Family City was still the home of the Gu Family City — the home of the Gu Family! Although there were still no Saint level experts in the Gu family's city, but with the relationship between Gu Li and Zuo Ye, the few clans with Saint level experts did not dare to have any dissatisfaction with the Gu family.
The Gu family still operated the area of influence that belonged to the Gu family.
However, not long ago, many clans from the north had moved south. Most of the clans from the north had moved to Holy Dragon City, but in the end, they were besieged by the beast clans, most of them turning into smoke. However, there were some related families that didn't go to Holy Dragon City, rather, they came from the Jin family in the Northwest Administrative Province of the Holy Dragon Empire. Because they had an alliance with the Gu family, they didn't go to Holy Dragon City, but instead went to the Western Province to seek refuge with the Gu family.
The Jin family of the Northern Yu Province was also a big family with two Saint level experts. Such a family would obviously not be able to settle down. In the main hall of the Gu family, the Jin family went to the Gu family, ”Brother Gu!” The current head of the Jin family, Jin Yao, said, ”We, the Jin family, have been extremely grateful to be under the care of the Meng family in the Gu family city for the past few days. However, the members of the Jin Clan felt somewhat sorry for sitting there and eating dry food. The members of the Jin Clan had nothing to do. Yesterday, I heard that a grain depot in the Gu Family City was attacked by bandits, and the entire grain depot was burned down. It seems that we need to send more people to guard those important places in the city. ”In that case …
It was obvious that the arrival of the Jin family was a bit of an attempt to seize control of the city. However, the Gu family had been running the city for many years and their influence was deeply rooted, so the Jin family didn't try to seize power. Since the Jin family had settled down in the Gu family city, the Jin family had secretly sent people to stir up trouble in the Gu family city. Since the Jin family had secretly sent people to create trouble in the Gu family city, the Jin family had taken the opportunity to control the Gu family's rights in the Gu family city.
For example, Gu Feng had already known in advance that the Jin family wanted to touch the grain depot, and he had also sent two experts of the ninth rank and a team of City Guards there. However, the Jin family had sent a Saint level expert to severely injure the two experts of the ninth rank, and then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, they had burned Ku Yang's grain and left. Of course, the sage level expert of the Jin family also covered his face, and didn't kill the two level nine elders of the Gu family. This meant that the Jin family wouldn't fall out with the Gu family when they didn't have a heel.
The Jin family also knew that they were outsiders. Although their power was far higher than the Gu family, if they wanted to seize power immediately, even if they succeeded in seizing power, the Jin family would surely suffer a great blow to their strength. After running the Gu family's city for so many years, the city guards and mercenary groups had been very loyal to the Gu family.
Just like that, the Jin family and the Gu family didn't dare to fall out with each other. The Jin family stirred up trouble in the Gu family city, destroying the Gu family's foundation. They sent people to the Gu family's grain depot, silver depot, gold depot, teahouse, hotel, and even brothels to cause trouble, then they would fish in troubled waters. Regarding this, the Gu family dared not to say anything. After all, the Gu family's highest combat strength was only at the ninth level. If their high-end strength couldn't compete with the Jin family, they could only fight slowly.
”Brother Jin!” The current head of the Gu family, Gu Feng, said, ”How can we, the guests of the Jin family, work for such a small matter in the Gu family city? Everyone knows that the Jin family is an important guest of our Gu family. If we let all of our guests come out and do business with us, wouldn't it be clear to the world that we, the Gu family, don't have the ability? In fact, our Gu family can solve that small problem, so we don't need you to worry about it. ”
”Hehe!” Brother Gu! Our two families have been friends for a long time, so what you are saying is that we are meeting an outsider, ”Jin Yao said,” Coming in from the south caused many people in the north to move to the south, and among them, there are people who are mixed with different kinds of people. Recently, the Gu Family City is becoming more and more unsafe. We, the Jin Family's mercenary groups have already come several times, and we can help the Gu Family maintain the safety of the Gu Family City. ”
”We appreciate Patriarch Jin Yao's kindness!” At this moment, Gu Yue, who was on the side, said, ”Our Gu family can solve our city's problems by ourselves, there's no need for outsiders to worry. But now that the Beastmen have retreated back to the north, could it be that Master Jin Yao is not so busy moving back? ”
”I'm not busy with that!” Jin Yao said, ”We have been living in the Gu Family City for free these days, how could we leave like this? Let's stabilize the situation in Gu Family City first before leaving! ”
