Chapter 1388: Chapter 369: Reverse Bargaining (Part 2)

County Magistrate: "..."

What’s going on? What’s happening to him today?

How did it suddenly turn out this way?

Previously, he wasn’t like this. When he heard about the Great Tang Prison, he would handle things diligently, always addressing them as seniors.

But now, why does it seem like he’s watching a group of kids playing at his place, having the feeling of holding a winning hand?

Why is this? Why can he still feel so confident when facing so many from the Great Tang Prison?

The County Magistrate did not understand.

He dared not hesitate. Watching the young man leave, he hastily folded his handkerchief and briskly pursued him.

...

In the deliberation hall of the yamen, five people were sitting, each holding a cup of tea, looking at one another with smiles that spoke volumes.

"How should we collaborate with Jiangnan this time? Do any of the Prison Directors have thoughts on it?"

"Haha, I also don’t know, but hearing that Jiangnan is developing so well now, they must need help from our Great Tang Prison."

"I think so too. It’s impossible for such a large city not to have our formidable presence. What if danger arises in Jiangnan? After all, there are so many citizens, we should think for them, feel their thoughts and their hardships."

"Yes, so let’s wait and see what explanation the president will provide us."

The five Prison Directors from the Great Tang Prison were in a very good mood.

They knew the Celestial Craft Workshop existed in Jiangnan.

But the workshop kept to itself, and as for matters between them and Yuchi, it had no right to interfere, as long as they didn’t attack the citizens of Jiangnan.

They also knew there was an ancient, mysterious sect outside Jiangnan.

But this ancient sect was now standing behind the citizens of Jiangnan. Even if it is obligated to protect Yuchi, they are not afraid; the union of the five Great Tang Prisons, couldn’t they handle a little Yuchi?

How is that possible?

We have people backing us!!!

Hahaha, they exchanged laughs, their smiles very harmonious.

At this moment, Yuchi finally entered.

He saw the five Prison Directors first, each one looking more exaggerated than the next.

Hostile approach?

Fine!

As Yuchi stepped in, the Prison Directors coldly fixed their eyes on him. Upon sensing their hostility, his face showed no discontent, instead beaming with a cheerful glow, he said:

"Dear Prison Directors, I’ve been eagerly waiting for you in Jiangnan."

These were his true thoughts.

The other Prison Directors were instantly puzzled.

They hadn’t even begun talking, and this man already backed down, starting with such talk?

Thus, one Prison Director rose, holding his seat, looking at the young man before him with admiration in his gaze:

"Hahaha, I’ve long heard of President Yuchi’s prowess. Now seeing him, President Yuchi truly is remarkably handsome, exuding the aura of a young talent."

"Yes, the President truly deserves the title. He foresees opportunities, knowing what crucial actions to take at the right time. Such an excellent president."

"President Yuchi is exactly that kind of presence; from the first instant we saw you, we found great favor in you."

"Really remarkable."

Hearing these Prison Directors speak, Yuchi couldn’t help but echo a few remarks.

"Dear sirs, you flatter me. I am merely a nameless figure, how could I compare to the esteemed Prison Directors?"

"I am akin to a firefly, how dare I shine against the moon!"

"Thus, meeting you esteemed gentlemen is my honor; my heart is truly filled with excitement and awe, seeing you as if meeting my kin, you’ve finally arrived, I’ve missed you so much."

After speaking, Yuchi wiped away tears, and they were genuine, not fake ones.

He didn’t know why his luck was so good lately, truly whatever he lacked came to him.

Everything was flowing perfectly, without any place for anxiety. Could my second spring be dawning?

The other Prison Directors were taken aback by his emotion, what’s going on? Why does he seem happier than we do?

Could he be happier than those of us who come for money?

What’s this?

Are you some sort of masochistic existence?

If that’s indeed the case, we could potentially bully you, drain Jiangnan dry, letting you experience our cruelty!

The deliberation hall was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Yuchi displayed various innocent, charming smiles of youth, and the Prison Directors across from him mirrored his expressions, looking at each other, the smiles shared were even happier than seeing their spouses.
