Zi Chen's expression was solemn, and all Chengshan did not dare to neglect him. After withdrawing from here, they sent a message to the family.
Zi Chen returned to Gesha Market Town. The survivors were all around the tavern. There was no place to squat, so they had to stand far away.
Some people even stood opposite to drink. There was a newly opened workshop of the Zhang family, which specialized in dealing with all kinds of strange beasts.
When Zi Chen came back, he happened to see Lao Chen. He was responsible for supplying meat to the tavern, and he should have come to pay the bill this time.
"Old Chen." Zi Chen called out.
Lao Chen quickly saluted Zi Chen. He had heard what the adventurer had said about the previous events.
Zi Chen rescued many people.
"I'll give it to you."
Lao Chen was a little flattered.
Zi Chen was already moving forward, and he had no choice but to follow.
It's more lively here than before.
"Have you ordered less meat recently?" Zi Chen asked with a smile.
Lao Chen nodded, because the tavern had free exotic animal meat, so the amount of ordinary meat purchased from him was naturally less.
However, Lao Chen has made a lot of money in recent years.
The two just chatted, mostly with Zi Chen talking and Lao Chen listening.
"This time's beast tide is a bit unusual." Zi Chen said: "Every other day, someone from the Zhang family will go out to deliver goods. If you want to stay, it doesn't matter. Send your family out first. Tell me when you think about it.
I'll make arrangements."
Lao Chen gratefully saluted Zi Chen.
Being able to get Zi Chen to say something unusual was enough to tell that something was serious, and Lao Chen even guessed that the Gesha market town might not be able to hold it in the future.
In fact, a lot of people left during the last beast wave, but businessmen like Lao Chen have stayed here for many years, and their whole family is here, so they didn't leave after the storm passed.
Two days later, all the senior officials of Yiyang County arrived, including even Qian San.
He is the general person in charge of the Mythology Alliance in Yiyang County, and normally Zi Chen is considered his subordinate at the moment.
On this day, the tavern was not open.
All Chengshan were sitting in the hall, and the bowls that were originally filled with wine now contained tea.
The old man from the management office was also here. He found a corner seat and sat with Duo Chengshan. He felt uncomfortable all over.
The most important thing is that the heads of these families, no matter what they were in the past, now have a good relationship with Zi Chen.
It seems that the only exception is the Administration.
"Everyone, the scale of this beast attack may be beyond your imagination. If you have bad plans, do you want to stay in this town of Gesha?"
Just this sentence made everyone look at each other in confusion.
Gesha Market Town has always been managed by the Management Bureau, and the management fees are not reduced.
"An administration can't defend this place at all, and the administration has no intention of protecting this place at all."
Zi Chen said unceremoniously: "If a crisis comes now, they will take the money and leave without any delay."
Everyone's eyes moved and looked at the old man in the corner.
The other party laughed dryly and said: "It's not like we just take money and don't do things, we try our best to protect them."
In fact, no one understands it at this moment. It’s just a desert town. If you don’t want it, just don’t want it. Is it worth such an effort?
Among the talkers present, who is not a busy person?
Zi Chen reached out and drew forward, and a picture scroll appeared.
Zi Chen said: "If you give up here, it will be equivalent to giving up the entire desert and Gobi."
The Gobi and desert cover an area of ​​more than thousands of miles. In addition to exotic animal resources, there are also some mineral deposits underground.
A Chengshan said: "Master Zichen, is this a bit exaggerated? Those desert beasts launch an offensive, and the most they can do is destroy this market town. But as long as everyone evacuates, they will definitely withdraw, and then it will naturally be the same as before.
.”
Others nodded.
Of course they are not willing to lose thousands of miles of resource land.
But if it was such a market town, they didn't care.
Anyway, they are just some beasts and they won't occupy the territory. As long as everyone evacuates, they will come back after they leave.
"This principle may not be wrong in the past." Zi Chen said: "But this time, something is unusual."
Zi Chen pointed to the area on the screen, "The loss of the Gobi and deserts is just my initial estimate. After these places are completely lost, other mountains and rivers in Yiyang County may follow."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar around him.
The loss of a Gesha market town is nothing, and the loss of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers is acceptable. If the entire Yiyang County is gone, where will they live?
Everyone's expressions changed, ranging from surprise to doubt.
"Why is this said?"
Zhang Qingshan asked. He was the representative of the Zhang family this time. Others had concerns about talking to Zi Chen, but he did not.
In other words, he wants to take the place of others and ask out the concerns in his heart.
"It's just a personal intuition. I feel that there is a force that gathers all the strange beasts in the desert."
Everyone nodded. Several forces sent people to explore the desert and found nothing unusual.
There is no sign of the treasure being born.
There is no terrible crisis.
So why did the alien beasts leave the desert?
After all, I have been staying in the desert for so many years.
The probability of being deliberately integrated is very high.
"Since they can gather all the forces in the desert, do you think their purpose is to build a Gosha market town?"
Everyone fell into silence.
Zi Chen has a tavern in Gesha Market Town, and the business is very prosperous. Everyone knows it very well, because the place where they are discussing at the moment is this tavern.
But no one would think that Zi Chen was deliberately alarmist in order to save the tavern.
Because there is no need!
Even if the people present are not the head of the family, they are all Chengshan. They know very well that if Zi Chen wants to make money, there is no need to do this and just go to the desert for a walk. The spiritual money earned will not be able to be earned back after several years of running the tavern.
What's more, this tavern is so conscientious, with high quality and low prices, it naturally makes less money.
Everyone looked at each other but did not respond immediately.
Zhang Qingshan pondered for a moment and then said: "Whether the other party wants these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, or the entire Yiyang County, it is actually the same for us. Hold on and don't retreat!"
Others looked at Zhang Qingshan.
"Because, once we give in, we will give in step by step! We have lost thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. After the other party adapts, will we ask for hundreds of miles of mountains and rivers from you again? Will you give it to you then? If you don't give it, we will start a war. If you give it, great, I will come back later
Do you want hundreds of miles to be returned? If you repeat this, it will become an endless cycle. Do you have to wait until every mountain and river in Yiyang County is occupied before you think of starting a war? "
"But when that time comes, will you still be angry?"
"So, no matter what the other party's purpose is, we will never compromise! From this moment on, we must stick to the ground under our feet and never retreat or give in!"
Some nodded, some were silent.
Zi Chen looked at Qian San with a questioning look in his eyes.
Qian San, who looked like a young man, said, "If you all agree, we might as well work out a plan. From the current point of view, rather than stopping the alien beasts, it is more about helping your family accumulate foundation. After all, these dead alien beasts
, the production is quite abundant.”
After a pause, the young man continued: "The battle is still in the trial stage between each other. Before it reaches a large scale, it can leave a certain space for the adventurers. Compared with you, the adventurers may not be stronger in combat.
There is no tacit understanding of cooperation, but there are many of them, and they are not afraid of death, and they are all used to living a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife."
To be continued...
