Completely at ease?
What was complete relief?
These family heads were naturally not fools to be able to manage and control such a large family.
He wanted Mr. Qin to be completely at ease, and he wanted them to stand on their side and surrender!
However, had the outside world become so chaotic?
Reinforcements were going to fight for territory?
This meant that chaos was really about to descend.
If that was really the case, they really had to make a choice. They had to take sides.
Even though they had a strong foundation, everything happened too suddenly.
They had food but no soldiers. If they didn't take sides and seek protection, they could only be slaughtered in troubled times.
They could already feel the strength of Qin Chuan's team.
They had thought that the four great generals were enough to shock them. They did not expect that there were two such terrifying people hidden beside him.
Moreover, the equipment of the Tiger Guard Battalion was not something that ordinary people could afford.
Soon, they made a decision in their hearts.
"Mr. Qin, if you don't mind, please give us a chance…"
In the end, the more prestigious Shi family head said respectfully.
"Servant? What do you mean?"
Qin Chuan calmly asked.
He felt that this was not enough. He had to force them to make their stand clear.
"We…hope to follow Mr. Qin!”
Taking a deep breath, the Shi family said respectfully.
Even without Qin Chuan's arrival, they would still be controlled by the Yellow Turbans and would be in even more danger.
Although this Mr. Qin was very ambitious, he was still a member of the imperial court. He was a legitimate person, so he shouldn't be so unscrupulous.
" Welcome to the team…"
A smile finally appeared on Qin Chuan's face as he calmly replied.
"Thank you, Mr. Qin!"
"Thank you, Mr. Qin!"
……
No one bowed and thanked him.
"Let me introduce to you, the person behind me is Miss Mei.”
Qin Chuan held Mei Huji's hand and introduced her to him.
"Greetings, Lady Mei!"
"Greetings, Lady Mei!"
……
Everyone bowed.
Mei Huji nodded coldly and didn't say anything.
"As you all know, the Yellow Bandits are on the rise. Before Huang Jin is suppressed, the world will be in chaos. However, the current Wangdu had no leader, and there were no soldiers or generals guarding the city.”
His gaze swept across the five of them and he said calmly,"Therefore, before I go to support the other counties, I will leave my troops to guard Wangdu. I've already chosen the person. It was the remnants of the Yellow Turban army that had attacked Wangdu.”
"However, you don't have to worry. They have all surrendered to me. Although their combat strength was not strong, it was enough to defend the city. You don't need to do anything, you just need to provide enough food.”
"I believe that these things are not difficult for you. You should be able to do it, right?"
In the end, Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes and asked.
"Of course, of course…"
The five clan heads hurriedly replied.
"Also, Wangdu doesn't have a county magistrate for the time being, but it can't be without a leader, right? I can't stay here to preside over the overall situation, so Miss Mei will stay here and temporarily handle the administrative matters of Wangdu County for me. This was only temporary. After Huang Jin is suppressed, I will report to the Imperial Court. Perhaps a new County Magistrate will be born among the five of you…"
His gaze landed on Mei Huji and then swept across everyone before he made his decision.
Everyone was shocked.
Qin Chuan really wanted to take control of Wangdu County. This was something they had long guessed.
However, it was not only unexpected that a woman was managing them, but it also made them somewhat uncomfortable.
They had a deep-rooted belief that women were inferior to men. They really could not accept a woman restricting them.
However, they didn't dare to retort.
Otherwise, if Qin Chuan killed them all and framed the Yellow Turbans, they would be helpless.
Moreover, they also knew that this woman was extremely extraordinary. They had already learned a thing or two about her in just a few words.
Fortunately, it was only temporary.
Especially when they heard that the future county magistrate would be chosen among them, not only did their hearts feel balanced, but they were also secretly happy.
In fact, he even began to have a plan in his heart. What was he going to do to make this powerful lord look up to him?
In their hearts, Qin Chuan's power was already established.
If the Yellow Turbans were eventually defeated, Qin Chuan would definitely be able to rise to the top with his military merits. Even if he only moved up a step, he would still be a county governor and rule over them.
Moreover, it was not impossible for Qin Chuan to become a provincial governor. He might even enter the court as an official.
If the Yellow Turbans could not be pacified, it would be even more terrifying.
Qin Chuan would definitely become the overlord of this place, and he would be able to dictate their fates.
"Lord, we will definitely cooperate with Lady Mei and Lord Mei.”
The Shi Family Patriarch quickly expressed his opinion.
Their family was the number one family here. If another family became the county magistrate, their future would be uncertain.
The others also expressed their opinions.
Mei Huji looked at Qin Chuan with a bitter expression.
She didn't want any of this. She only wanted to follow Qin Chuan.
Now that he was being held back by a small county, he was naturally unhappy.
"In that case, I won't keep you guys for dinner. Go back and make your preparations. Miss Mei's orders will be delivered to you very soon.”
Qin Chuan immediately gave the order to leave. The few of them hurriedly took their leave and slowly walked out of the County Magistrate's Manor.
"Guan Yu, how are the preparations of the city guards?”
Qin Chuan asked.
"Replying to my lord, we have already selected the strongest 1,000 people to form the city defense army, and Yang Fan is leading it. Yang Fan's strength was not bad, almost having the strength of a second-rate general.”
Guan Yu reported the situation respectfully.
"That's good! Mei Huji, I'll bring you to meet them later…"
Qin Chuan nodded.
"Master, I can always be by your side…"
Seductive Fox Ji said coquettishly.
"Aren't you always in my mind?”
Qin Chuan smiled lightly, causing the few burly men beside him to feel embarrassed as their faces turned red.
"Have the Tiger Guard Battalion prepare well, we are ready to set off! We must take control of Zhongshan as soon as possible!”
Taking a deep breath, Qin Chuan spoke in a deep voice, his eyes exuding a look of disdain.
"My lord, we can prepare to set off at any time!”
Dian Wei and the others were also filled with fighting spirit.
They had taken down two counties in one go.
