Chen Xiaoxiao's face darkened slightly when he heard this.
She still doesn't understand the various forces on Wuji Island, and she has no clue about the Zheng family mentioned by Zhou Laosi.
I don’t know how big the Zheng family is in Kuncheng, and what chance Canglang Palace has of winning against them.
Negotiating with the enemy when she knew nothing about it would not only make her, the newly appointed external affairs minister, a joke, but it would also affect Xu Tian's prestige in Canglang Palace.
"What the Fourth Elder said is absolutely true. We naturally agree with Lord Wolf King's arrangement, but now that the head of the External Relations Department has been replaced, the negotiation with the Zheng family will be handled by the new person. Of course, if she does it,
If it’s smashed, Lord Wolf King, should you also be responsible?”
As soon as Zhou Laosi finished speaking, another elder spoke up.
Xu Tian sneered.
None of these old guys are fuel-efficient. They originally wanted to establish their authority and parachute Chen Xiaoxiao to the external relations department, but they joined forces to rebel against the general.
Chen Xiaoxiao had just arrived on the island not long ago and had no power of her own. Even though she was transferred to the external relations department, she had no real power.
Now if she is asked to deal with the dispute with the Zheng family, she will be screwed up in all likelihood.
As for Zhou Laosi and the others, they were just waiting for the negotiation with the Zheng family to break down so that they could use the situation as an excuse.
"Chen Xiaoxiao is the director of the External Relations Department, so she is naturally responsible." Xu Tian sneered, "As for whether she can shoulder this responsibility, there is no need for other elders to ask."
"Very good. Since you, leader, have your own way, we will wait and see." A calculating look flashed in Elder Zhou's eyes.
"Is there anything else?" Xu Tian waved his hands to everyone impatiently, "If not, this is the end of today's meeting."
As soon as these words came out, the elders left the table one after another and walked out of the door in groups.
After all the senior officials left, A Biao and others stepped forward and asked Xu Tian for instructions.
"Brother Yi, look at this..."
They didn't even know the grudge between Canglang Hall and the Zheng family, but from the words and deeds of the other elders at the meeting just now, they knew that Xu Tian was in a very difficult situation here.
"This is your identity certificate." Xu Tian took out six waist badges and threw them on the table. "Your names are on them. Claim them yourself."
A Biao and others' eyes lit up when they saw the badges on the table.
They originally thought that Xu Tian would get them free passage visas at most, but they didn't expect that they would now have Wuji Island identity certificates directly.
This means that they will officially be residents of Wuji Island from now on.
Even if you are inspected by someone from the Wuji Martial Arts Association, there is no need to worry.
Such an identity was something they had never dreamed of.
"Boss, you are so kind to us!" A Biao took the lead and picked up the badge and looked at it again and again, and even brought it to his mouth and took a bite, "Hiss...it's actually pure gold like the legend...
…”
"Look at your potential!" Feng Wu scolded with a smile.
Others also found their own badges and put them in their pockets.
Each waist tag has the name of the registrant and is also a symbol of their identity, which is of great significance to Chen Xiaoxiao, A Biao and others.
"Qing Qing, you are the oldest among them and the most calm in your work. You and A Biao and others stay in the External Relations Department to assist Chen Xiaoxiao. If you encounter any difficulties, go to her directly."
"Yes!" Wuqing and others responded.
"Chen Xiaoxiao, if you can't figure it out, just call me." Xu Tian said again.
"I understand." Chen Xiaoxiao nodded.
The external liaison department, as the name suggests, deals with other gang forces and does not require fighting and killing. For them at this stage, it is the most suitable position.
After all, based on their strength, they are not qualified to stay in Canglang Palace as odd jobs.
An ordinary bounty hunter on Wuji Island is several times stronger than masters from other countries outside.
This is also the reason why Xu Tian placed Chen Xiaoxiao and others in the external relations department.
Of course, even though the members of the External Relations Department are not that strong, this department is very important. The disputes between Canglang Palace and other gangs require the participation of people from the External Relations Department.
"Brother First, how do you think we should deal with the grievances between us and the Zheng family?" Chen Xiaoxiao asked tentatively.
She knew the seriousness of the matter. If she didn't handle it well, she wouldn't be able to hold the position of Minister of External Affairs for long.
"Find a time to invite the people from the Zheng family out, and I will go there with you." Xu Tian said after thinking for a while.
"Okay." Chen Xiaoxiao responded.
She still doesn't know the details of the various families and gangs on Wuji Island. If Xu Tian can come forward in person this time, her situation will not be so passive.
"Also, how are you doing with Bingyan's whereabouts?" Xu Tian asked in a low voice.
"I found some clues." Chen Xiaoxiao replied, "When Qingqing and I were getting familiar with the environment, we happened to pass by a manor belonging to an ancient family and seemed to see the eldest lady."
"However, Qingqing and I were far away at that time. We only saw a young woman who looked similar to the eldest lady being surrounded by bodyguards and getting into the car. I am not 100% sure that she was the eldest lady."
"A descendant of the ancient family..." Xu Tian muttered silently.
On Wuji Island, in addition to the three famous families and the richest man, there are also some low-key ancient families.
Most of these families are descendants of the master who lived in seclusion on Wuji Island. However, due to various reasons, these people gradually split into several families.
"Well, I asked about it, and it's the Tang family." Chen Xiaoxiao added, "What a coincidence, he has the same surname as the eldest lady, but the Tang family in China should have nothing to do with the Tang family, the ancient family on Wuji Island.
connect."
"Of course, I don't know yet whether the eldest lady has any dealings with people with Down syndrome." 1
"Keep checking, and notify me immediately if there is any news." Xu Tian said.
"Well, I will investigate the whereabouts of the eldest lady as soon as possible." Chen Xiaoxiao nodded.
"I still have something important that you need to do." Xu Tian said again.
"First brother, please give your orders." Chen Xiaoxiao said.
"You also know that my current situation in Canglang Palace is very difficult. Those old guys don't take me as the leader seriously at all. If I want to break the situation, I must accumulate my own power as soon as possible."
"You have been paying attention to me recently. If there are suitable candidates, you will recruit them."
"But..." Chen Xiaoxiao said hesitantly, "I'm worried that I won't be able to recruit people. After all, there are so many famous gangs here, and..."
"And each of them is quite powerful, right?" Xu Tian smiled slightly.
"Yes, I'm just worried that I don't have the leverage to attract them." Chen Xiaoxiao nodded.
"Then do you know what the powerful people on Wuji Island want most?" Xu Tian asked.
