Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Chapter 72 The three major forces in the city

There is no doubt that Lei Xiao's next destination is to find Kunbu, the president of the Kongqing Town Chamber of Commerce who he accidentally rescued in the forest a few days ago.

Without that guy, he would not have been able to obtain relevant information about the Demonic Shadow Forest where his territory is located and the surrounding areas so quickly.

The most critical thing is the important information that the two human nations are at war.

Of course, there are also the second-level magic medicine Qi Condensation Pill and the car of light crystals that the other party lost.

Because of this relationship, if you want to further understand the detailed information and power distribution of Kongqing Town, Kunbu is naturally your first choice for a breakthrough.

Having said that, Kombu is indeed quite famous among the surrounding merchants.

Therefore, after a brief inquiry and not much effort, Lei Xiao and Huzhang arrived at a shop called "Nightingale's Song".

Although the scale of this shop is far smaller than that of the Trade Fair just now, among the surrounding shops, it is undoubtedly the most eye-catching one.

"Welcome to the Nightingale's Song!"

As soon as they entered the door, a young clerk who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old came up to him immediately and said politely to Lei Xiao and Huzhang in a slightly immature voice: "This store specializes in all kinds of top-quality knitwear. Aromatherapy and glassware.

It can be wholesaled or retailed, and professional private customization can also be provided. Please choose as much as you like. "

"We're not here to buy anything. Is your boss here?"

Lei Xiao waved his hand slightly and went straight to the topic.

"Who's looking for me?"

Before the young clerk could reply, a middle-aged man with a big belly and a brocade robe walked out of the back room of the spacious shop. There was no doubt that the person who came was none other than Kunbu.

When he got closer, after looking up and down at the disguised Lei Xiao and Huzhang, Kunbu couldn't help but show doubts on his greasy face: "Do you two know me?"

Directly opposite him, Lei Xiao did not answer, but took off the hat on his cloak, and his original appearance was immediately revealed in front of Kunbu's eyes.

"It turns out you are here, my lord! Come on, please come inside!"

On the other side, Kunbu immediately recognized Lei Xiao, who had saved his life in the Shadow Forest and sent someone to escort him all the time. He couldn't help but be surprised and happy.

Of course, the main reason why he was so enthusiastic was because Lei Xiao let Nan Xing reveal his aristocratic status unintentionally at that time.

The aristocratic young master who is guarded by experts is obviously a big shot that a civilian businessman like Kunbu, who has a little money but yearns for power, is eager to make friends with.

In this way, Lei Xiao and Huzhang were respectfully let into the ornately decorated reception room in the back room.

While Kunbu was carefully pouring tea in an exquisite glass teapot, he seemed to inadvertently ask Lei Xiao: "I wonder if you, sir, have made a special trip to visit me today. What are your orders?"

"Your Excellency, you're welcome. I can't talk about your orders. I just have a lot of money recently and want to see how the overall environment of this town is. If possible, I would like to do some small business here."

Smiling slightly, Lei Xiaoyong had already prepared his words and responded: "Because I have always been conservative and never fight an unprepared battle.

In particular, the overall safety and security of the city are important criteria for my consideration.

So, if possible, please give me some advice. "

"Sir, you have asked the right person!

I have to say, I really admire your unique vision! "

Hearing this, Kunbu knew that his opportunity to perform had come, and he quickly began to introduce it nonstop: "Actually, the size and strength of Kongqing Town have already reached the standards of a small city.

However, because the current city lord is afraid of paying more taxes to the royal family, the change has not been made.

As for the security situation in the city, you can rest assured. There are currently more than 2,000 people in the garrison directly under the city lord alone.

Under the command of the Lord City Lord, there are several third-level powerhouses with extraordinary strength, including the Lord City Lord himself..."

Next, through Kunbu's meticulous description, Lei Xiao learned.

The military strength of this Kongqing Town can be said to be extremely impressive.

First of all, the city lord himself is a third-level nine-star powerhouse.

It seemed that the aura of the third-level peak powerhouse in the center of the city that the tiger stick sensed when he first entered the city was undoubtedly the city lord himself.

Secondly, under the city lord, there are three loyal third-level powerhouses.

One of them is responsible for the city defense standing army of about 2,000 people, basically composed of first-order soldiers.

The other one is in charge of the city lord's personal guard, which is composed of elite second-level soldiers and has a size of about 100 people.

As for the last one, he has been mobilized to the battlefield on the kingdom's border with another 1,000-man standing army.

"So, except for the third-level strong man who was recruited and the 1,000 first-level soldiers.

At present, the main defense force in the city is composed of 3 third-level powerhouses including the city lord himself, 100 second-level powerhouses, and 2,000 first-level soldiers..."

At this time, Lei Xiao couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression.

"Sir, in addition to these regular troops, there are two important forces in the city."

Immediately afterwards, Kunbu continued to add tea to Lei Xiao: "That is the major permanent mercenary groups and the Phytolacca Trade Fair."

"Oh? Phytolacca Trade Fair is also one of them?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao was a little surprised.

"It seems that your Excellency already knows something about the Phytolacca Fair."

On the other side, Kunbu put down the exquisite glass teapot and said: "The Shanglu family, one of the kingdom's wealthy families, has two third-level powerhouses in charge of their business in Kongqing Town, and their guards are nearly a hundred people strong.

One is the president himself, and the other is the chief appraiser, Master Fang Hai.

However, it is said that the president of the trade fair in Kongqing Town belongs to a branch of the Shangluc family and is not very popular with the family. Therefore, he was assigned to a remote place like Kongqing Town. "

"Understood." Lei Xiao nodded slightly and asked again: "What about the other mercenary force?"

"Sir, the mercenary forces in the city are a bit complicated."

Taking a sip of the steaming black tea, Kunbu began to introduce again: "There are more than 1,000 mercenaries in the city.

Among them, there is a small group of mercenaries headed by the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Group, about 200 people, who wear the same pants as the city lord.

When it is inconvenient for the garrison to show up, these people are often the ones who do some shameful and dirty work for the city lord.

Therefore, with the support of the Lord of the City, and the leader of the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Group himself, he is a long-established third-level senior powerhouse.

These people usually run rampant and domineering in the city, making everyone angry but dare not say anything.

However, I heard just now that Shui Mang, the deputy leader of the Blood Scorpions, seems to be suffering from food poisoning for no apparent reason..."

"Maybe it's retribution."

Shaking his head in confusion, Lei Xiao looked sharply and asked Kunbu again: "Does it mean that the reputation of this city lord is not very good?"
