When Lin Haoming returned from the City Lord's Mansion, it was already ten minutes late at night.

Although it was not early, neither Shu Siyue nor Jia Qiniang had a rest. After seeing Lin Haoming come back, Yu'er even put up the prepared midnight snack.

Although Lin Haoming had already had a welcome banquet, the others who followed him were just waiting. Now they just wanted to invite everyone to eat something together.

On the way, he came back with several senior officials from the Ditto City, so he had no chance to discuss with others. After sitting down, Yao Dong was not busy eating and asked directly: "Sir, we were stopped outside today. I wonder what this female city lord means?"

"It's not considered a warning, it's just a reminder. Something surprised me. The entire senior executive of Ditie City, from the city lord to the sixth house, was actually harmonious, as if he was a family. This situation was unexpected before." Lin Haoming said.

"What? Be kind, family?" Even Shu Siyue was a little surprised when she heard this.

"Yes! Siyue, do you think this situation will happen?" Lin Haoming asked in disbelief.

"The only possibility of such a situation is that there is a wise leader, and others work together under his leadership. Just like when you were the county magistrate, Yan Yuyan has only been here for hundreds of years, and has always been on the verge of safety. How could this be possible?" Shu Siyue shook her head and said.

"So, this situation makes me even more scared. I'm afraid I may not be able to find out where the problem here is in a short time. It has a city with good time and place, but after the entire Tianxian Mansion ranking, the water here is very deep!" Lin Haoming said seriously.

"Master, since the water is so deep and we are outsiders, we still need to seek victory steadily. Even if we are slandered with them for a while, it is okay." Jia Qiniang said solemnly.

"Indeed, the situation here is completely different from that in Kun County. We do not have any solid support. We must pay attention to things, otherwise we will easily fall into a completely passive!" Yao Dong frowned when he heard this.

"Let me tell you first. These people give me the first impression. In the next days, Mr. Yao, please ask you to inquire more everywhere in the city. For the time being, I'm afraid we really want to be turtles with heads!" Lin Haoming said helplessly.

"Don't worry, sir, I know what's going on!" Yao Dong nodded.

"I have always been at ease with you when the time is right, I will arrange a position for you! The same is true for you two!" Lin Haoming said and turned to Liu Kai and Zhuang Liang.

"Sir, I can continue to be an expert. After all, I am not familiar with the place here, and I need a trustworthy person around me!" Zhuang Liang said.

"Hey!" Lin Haoming waved his hand immediately and said, "No, it's because this place is very strange to us, so I need a local."

"But where can I find a trustworthy and usable person for a while?" Zhuang Liang said helplessly.

"Sir, there may not be no trustworthy people!" Yao Dong said suddenly.

"Mr. Yao, do you have any ideas?" Lin Haoming asked with some surprise.

"I did have some ideas about this matter early in the morning, but I didn't understand many things and didn't dare to say them rashly. But the situation that the adults talk about today is actually much more difficult than expected. Since this is the case, I have to say it!" Yao Dong was somewhat embarrassed.

"Mr. Yao is resourceful. Has he found someone?" Liu Kai said in surprise.

Yao Dong smiled slightly and said, "This person has been with us for a long time!"

"Mr. Yao is talking about the girl from the Zeng family?" Lin Haoming was a little surprised.

"Well, since this woman is from the Zeng family, it obviously meets the requirements of the locals. Moreover, the Zeng family is extremely important to the Dizi City. I have also inquired about some things related to the Zeng family these days. As the first family here, the Zeng family has a good reputation overall, but there seems to be some minor problems within the family!" Yao Dong said.

"Oh, what does Mr. Yao know?" Lin Haoming asked.

Yao Dong picked up three cups and put them in front of him and said, "There are three top figures in the Zeng family, namely the patriarch Zeng Yingli, the ancestor Zeng Xiang of the Zeng family, and the current director of the workshop Zeng Huaili. Among them, the old patriarch Zeng Xiang was the leader of the Zeng family many years ago. After he was brought to him, the Zeng family was one of the best families in the entire Tianxian Mansion. Later, he was seriously injured during the last Wanmo War, which made it impossible to continue to receive the Zeng family. So after the Wanmo War, he passed the position of the head of the family to his nephew Zeng Yingli, which is now almost 20,000 years."

"Did Zeng Yingli have no children?" Lin Haoming asked.

"I originally had a son, but he died in the last battle between Ten Thousand Demons. Because of this, I bought the root of the internal conflicts of the Zeng family." Yao Dong said.

"In this way, the Zeng family is still a big family that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, but every battle of Ten Thousand Demons is indeed the key to the rise and fall of many big families." Lin Haoming couldn't help but sigh when he thought of these.

Yao Dong nodded and agreed, "You are right. The Zeng family has been standing in the Ditches City for many years. The ancestor of the Zeng family was a magistrate of Tianxian Mansion. Although he has not appeared for many years, he is still the true pillar of the Zeng family. Of course, the Zeng family can only dominate the Ditches City now."

"How did the Zeng family conflict arise?" Lin Haoming asked.

At this time, Yao Dong took away a cup and picked up another cup and said, "Zeng Yingli is the son of Zeng Xiang's second brother. Zeng Xiang has two brothers. Both of them died in the battle between the Ten Thousand Demons. So they passed the position of the head of the family to Zeng Yingli in the order of old age. However, Zeng Xiang's third brother had as many as five or six descendants. As Zeng Xiang's seclusion was long, Zeng Yingli's orders were increasingly obstructed by several cousins ​​and sisters. Those people were more ambitious and wanted more power. Later, some even directly proposed to dismiss Zeng Yingli's position as the head of the family. However, Zeng Yingli was really a cruel person. Under the pressure of the other party, he actually joined forces with the children of the Zeng family's sidelines, and took down all those who disobeyed him in one fell swoop, and all of them were abolished their cultivation and imprisoned them to fend for themselves."

"This person is also a hero, Zeng Xiang did not choose the wrong person!" Liu Kai said.

"But the direct children fought in the internal struggle. Although Zeng Yingli won, they were injured and the side branches gradually began to look up. In the following days, although Zeng Yingli continued to be the head of the family, the side branches also made some requests, such as forming a clan elders' club. In recent thousands of years, the head of the work house in the Dizi City, including the current Zeng Huaili, was a representative elected by the clan elders' club, and he represented the interests of the side branches. It can be said that the current Zeng family is actually a cut watermelon!" Yao Dong picked up two cups and showed that a watermelon was split into two halves after splitting it.
