Chapter 549 Recognize the reality
Seeing Hills's expression change from dejected and unwilling to absent-minded, Chen Cheng knew that he understood what he said.
Chen Cheng clapped his hands and said:
"Okay, President, you can leave now. And the person you should really confess to is not me, but Aunt Mei. If you want me to cancel this, let Aunt Mei contact me."
As Chen Cheng spoke, he made a gesture to see the guest off.
Hills nodded dejectedly, then stood up and prepared to leave.
Just as he was about to open the door, he turned around and looked at Chen Cheng and said:
"Do you think what I have done is unqualified?"
Chen Cheng spread his hands and said:
“You have to understand that there are many talented people in this world, but few stages to showcase their talents.
And you are lucky enough to be valued by the president, so he gave you a stage.
You've done a great job as the president of the Moss Kingdom branch, and that's worth mentioning, but don't forget who gave you this stage. That's called gratitude."
"To be frank, I have no grudge against you. I've seen a lot of your contempt for me.
It's just that I needed someone to show my authority to, and you just happened to be there."
"So, by the way, I'll help Aunt Mei remind you.
Otherwise, if someone else does spy on Aunt Mei one day, and you're still so self-righteous, then it won't matter if you're dealt with by the president, but if Aunt Mei gets into trouble because of you, that won't be good."
Chen Cheng's words were very blunt. It had been more than a year since he left the forest and came into contact with the society of this world, and he also knew the rules governing the operation of this world's society.
Although there are extraordinary powers, it is still a society full of human relationships, just like in his previous life.
Hills is an unattainable big shot in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of the real top people, he is just a pawn.
And although Chen Cheng's strength was not as strong as his, to be honest he really didn't take him seriously, unless he was an uncontrollable epic.
Of course, if he was an uncontrollable person, then the guild president, Rokaski, would not have chosen him to serve as the branch president here.
So Chen Cheng could be said to Hills without any scruples when he said these words.
After hearing this, Hills smiled bitterly and said:
"Does what I do seem like a clown to you?"
Chen Cheng shook his head and said:
“No, no, no, no one would think you are a clown. You have done a great job as the president of the Moss Kingdom branch, otherwise Lord Lokaski would not have allowed you to sit in this position.
What I want to say is that your promotion is not only due to your talent, but also because you are from the same family as the president.
So once you encounter the matter of Aunt Mei, the biological daughter of the president, you should take it as seriously as you would the matters instructed by the president, instead of thinking about relying on factional power to get to the top and then trying to get rid of the troubles brought by the faction.
I can only describe such a person as an ungrateful wolf who can never be tamed."
Chen Cheng was more blunt this time. To put it bluntly, although you have talent, you are being kept by someone, so forget about personal independence.
If you really want to negotiate, then you should resign from your current position and then rely on your real ability to compete with the supreme elders of various factions.
But you are the same as others, without absolutely outstanding talents. Why don't others arrange their own people to take the position instead of you, an outsider?
You relied on other people's resources to get to the top, and no one asked you to do anything harmful.
And you want to turn against others and get rid of their influence just for the sake of your so-called reputation.
Isn't this just being a whore and pretending to be a saint?
Hills was an ambitious man, so after Aunt May took the lead in realizing the role of the dojo, he immediately overcame all difficulties and started experiments in the Kingdom of Moss.
It is precisely because he is not a cunning person that Chen Cheng is actually pointing fingers at him this time.
He didn't really want to be ruthless to him, otherwise he would have done it in a one-size-fits-all manner, cutting off all cooperation between the dojo and the guild, and abandoning all previous investments. The worst that could happen would be killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of his own.
He also believed that even if he cut off his ties with the guild, Aunt Mei would not disown him as her younger brother.
After all, when they were in Huidun City, Aunt Mei often told him not to trust the people in the guild and to be wary of them.
After Hills left, the supervisor knocked on the office door hurriedly.
"Come in."
The supervisor opened the door and came in, then said anxiously:
"Boss, you should go out and take a look. For some reason, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has surrounded the entire street where the guild is located."
After hearing what his supervisor said, Chen Cheng slapped his forehead and remembered that he had previously hired someone to send the little maid back to the prince to ask for help.
At that time, Chen Cheng had not expected that the little fat man would have such a great influence in the hearts of the guild's top leaders.
So he was afraid that Hills would become desperate and do something bad to him, so he asked the maid to go back for help.
Now that the fat guy had put pressure on the guild's top management, Hills had completely given up the idea of desperately trying to make a desperate move. He personally came to the guild with gifts to apologize, so his previous worries were unnecessary.
Chen Cheng opened the gift box, put away the exquisite space bag inside, and then went out.
At this time, the street surrounding the guild in the outer city was surrounded by Huidun and the city guards.
Seeing this situation, the adventurers were all terrified.
Of course, they are not afraid of fighting alone, but if they form an army formation, they are really no match for these elite city guards.
"Your Highness, this entire street is blocked."
The general leading the city guards reported to Huidun.
Huidun nodded, and then said:
"Brothers, be prepared. If there is any major commotion inside, suppress it immediately."
When Huidun used the word "brothers", he learned it from Chen Cheng.
When Xiao Dun and his team were experimenting with firearms tactics before, Chen Cheng always called them brothers when he joined in, so Hui Dun also learned it.
When the general of the city guard heard this, his eyes instantly turned red.
This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. How could they deserve to be called brothers by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
It can be said that in feudal society, a little bit of intimacy and kindness from feudal rulers to their subordinates could gain their gratitude and support.
With just this one casual remark, Huidun gained the loyalty of the city guard general and his subordinates.
Huidun waited for a while before he saw a familiar figure walking out from the crowd.
After seeing Chen Cheng, Huidun relaxed a lot and asked the city guards to make way.
"Well, you little brat, you've come to the guild to establish your authority. If you're not careful and get yourself hurt, do you think I should offend the church and then take down the Adventurer's Guild?"
Huidun was really worried about Chen Cheng. He was really afraid that Chen Cheng would get out of control, and then he would regret it.
