Chapter 420: Changing the Acting City Lord

After thanking him profusely, Xueer's father felt embarrassed as he touched his empty pockets.

The few thousand gold coins he had were used to get information except for the travel expenses, and now he didn't have a penny left.

He couldn't even treat his benefactor well.

He pulled Xueer and Fei'er aside.

"Which of you two sisters has money?"

With a red face, the father said it with a guilty conscience.

"No!"

The two sisters shook their heads awkwardly.

"What should I do? I don't even have money to treat you to a meal, or I'll go borrow some!"

Xueer's father gritted his teeth. He couldn't borrow Zhang Xing's money to treat Zhang Xing to a meal, that would be too unreasonable.

"Dad, the neighbors are all ungrateful. When our family is doing well, they all come to flatter us and eat and drink for free. When our family is unlucky, they all change their faces. You have borrowed money twice, and no one is willing to lend!"

Xueer said angrily.

"Why don't we mortgage the house? We can at least borrow 10,000 or 20,000 yuan."

The old man said helplessly.

"But what can we use to pay it back? If we can't pay it back, we won't even have a place to live."

Fei'er, who never talks much, said anxiously.

The father and daughter frowned and were worried.

How could this little movement escape Zhang Xing's ears? He smiled slightly.

"Uncle, Fei'er and Xue'er, come with me."

"Where to?"

The three asked in unison.

"Just go. You'll know when you get there."

Zhang Xing smiled.

Xue'er's father thought more and thought that Zhang Xing saw their embarrassment and wanted to treat them to a meal.

Following silently behind them, they arrived at the place in a short time.

"The City Lord's Mansion?"

The father and daughter were stunned for a moment, and vaguely knew what Zhang Xing meant. He was going to entertain them in the mansion.

Yes, Zijing City was originally Zhang Xing's territory, and he was the real owner here.

When the guard saw the Grand City Lord coming, he knelt in haste. Zhang Xing waved his hand and the guard could not continue to kneel.

"Stand guard, don't be polite when you see me next time."

Throwing down a word, he went straight to the main hall of the mansion.

The mansion was deserted in the early morning, with only some servants busy. Zhang Xing immediately issued a call for all staff to come to the meeting in half an hour.

After the order, the mansion began to be noisy. The Grand City Lord is back, the Grand City Lord is back...

In less than half an hour, Acting City Lord Holly, the leader of the Lingxi Knights, appeared in the council hall first, and then other staff members arrived one after another.

After the greeting, Acting City Lord Holly spoke first: "I wonder what the City Lord wants us to do?"

His attitude was quite respectful and well-behaved, and there was no trace of disrespect at all.

Now even if Holly had a hundred guts, he would not dare to show off to Zhang Xing. The kid in front of him was not only the city lord, but also the leader of the War Dragon Knights.

"I won't have time to manage Bauhinia City in the future. I'll be busy forming the Dragon War Corps. I'll hand over the power of acting city lord to..."

He stopped talking here and looked at Xue'er's father. It wasn't that Zhang Xing stopped on purpose, but he didn't know Xue'er's father's name, so he was a little embarrassed.

He whispered to Xue'er: "This... Xue'er, what's your father's name?"

Xue'er was startled, a little puzzled. Why did she ask my father's name at this time?

But she couldn't whisper, her face turned red, and she lowered her head and whispered: "Andro."

He coughed: "From now on, Bauhinia City will be managed by Andro, the father of Fei'er and Xue'er."

"Holly has been managing the city as acting city lord for so many years, and his body can't bear it. He should go back to the imperial capital to find His Majesty Keith to resign!"

Bang!

As soon as the voice fell, Holly fell off the chair.
