Chapter 306: The Qing Consortium changes hands

The mountain located in Stronghold 111 was known as Mt. Ginkgo. In autumn, the mountain would shimmer golden. But in winter, the ginkgo leaves would fall and litter the valley, leaving behind only naked tree branches.

The prosperity was coming to an end and would be buried in mud.

Qing Zhen stood in his spot and looked at the withered scenery in the valley. He suddenly laughed and said, "What a pity."

These were probably the three words that Qing Zhen liked to utter the most.

Next to him, Secretary Zhou frowned and said, "Men, remove Qing Zhen's shoes and escort him up Mt. Gingko!"

But the soldiers responsible for guarding Mt. Ginkgo's mountain roads did not move. Secretary Zhou was enraged. "How dare you disobey my orders."

However, the two soldiers remained still. It was as if they could not bear to do what they were told.
