Chapter 1790: Big stick and sweet dates!
After listening to Jiangshan's words, the last bit of anger in everyone's heart was extinguished.
After all, when we were bandits, meeting people from the imperial court was like a mouse meeting a cat.
How can we fight with them with such a clear conscience like we are doing now and nothing will happen to us?
Thinking of this, the old man who had previously opposed it hesitated and said, "That being said, it's not right to kill a brother who has shared life and death with you just because of something like this."
"This is unacceptable after all."
"Besides, those officials have committed heinous crimes. Boss, do you think they should be executed?"
Facing the old man's words, Jiang Shan said calmly: "Whether these people should be killed or not is not something we can decide."
“Also, although they are guilty of capital crimes, the master is still in the capital.”
"If nothing unexpected happens, sir, I will help them with the operation. They can escape the death penalty, but they can't escape the punishment of life."
"This won't happen again."
After receiving this answer, everyone's eyes widened.
"Is there still room for maneuver in this matter?"
A bandit leader said something subconsciously, and Jiangshan glanced at him and said.
"You think you're going to die because you're looking at things from a bandit's perspective."
"I said they wouldn't die because I was looking at it from a different perspective."
"If you really don't want to live like this, I can give you some money to leave here."
Hearing this, the bandits' originally somewhat disappointed mood instantly became cheerful.
Although everyone hated corrupt officials in the past, when it comes to themselves, no one dislikes them.
Thinking of this, everyone said awkwardly: "Boss, we were reckless just now. Please forgive us."
"From now on, our lives belong to you!"
Facing the "oaths" of the crowd, Jiang Shan said calmly: "Your lives belong only to you. I hope you live well, not die for anyone."
"Because only if you are alive can we climb better."
"As ordered!"
After saying that, everyone immediately prepared to leave. After all, the situation just now was somewhat awkward.
"and many more!"
Jiangshan stopped everyone who was about to leave, and threw out a animal skin bag.
"This is a reward from the court. I was planning to give it to you tomorrow."
"But since you're here today, I'll give it to you."
Looking at the animal skin bag in his hand, the old man in the lead opened it suspiciously.
The rich spiritual energy immediately made everyone's eyes light up.
"Originally, the rewards could be even greater, but because some people did something wrong, this is all we have this time."
"I don't want to see anyone make this mistake again next time."
After saying that, Jiangshan turned around and went back to the room.
Everyone: "..."
If you had these things, you should have taken them out earlier.
If you had taken it out earlier, we wouldn't have bothered you.
A wave of them were distributed when our colleagues were killed, and now the court has given us another wave.
No wonder everyone likes to work for the court.
......
inside the room.
As soon as he entered the room, Jiangshan's legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Hong Jing immediately stepped forward to support him and said, "It's just a show, why are you taking it so seriously?"
"Eight hundred thunder whips, you almost died."
Facing Hong Jing's concern, Jiang Shan shook his head and said, "We must let the court know our stance on this matter."
"Sir, you are currently battling the Duke of Zhenguo. If we give you a pretext to do so, it will be difficult for you to do your job in the capital."
"These profit-seeking guys are not a long-term solution after all."
Hearing this, Hong Jing pursed her lips and said, "How long do you plan to take to replace them?"
Hearing this, Jiang Shan glanced at Hong Jing and said softly, "Don't you feel bad about replacing all these people?"
"There's nothing I can do about it. When they were bandits, they might have been good at it."
"But the current situation is not something they can handle."
"If we continue like this, we will be dragged to death."
After receiving this answer, Jiang Shan said, "As long as you don't feel bad, I will find people to gradually replace them within 30 years."
"If they are sensible, let them retire to the countryside. If they are not, let them go down and reunite with their brothers who died in the battle."
As he spoke, Jiang Shan, who had recovered some strength, stood up and spoke.
"Now I finally understand why Mr. Bai asked him to protect Lin Yuan and the others."
"Because people like Lin Yuan are the core backbone of the future army. As long as they are here, I will have a steady stream of useful talents under my command."
"Mr.'s vision is truly admirable."
......
Hundred Fruit Garden.
"Sir, the prince has arrived."
Xing Piaopiao knocked on the door.
"Squeak~"
The door slowly opened, and Chen Changsheng, with a tired face, rubbed his forehead and said.
"Come and meet me then."
"After waiting for half a year, this guy's patience is really good."
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng walked straight towards the living room.
As soon as he entered the living room, Chen Changsheng immediately struck a solemn gesture and said, "I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"National Master, absolutely not!"
Before Chen Changsheng could bow, the prince hurried forward to support Chen Changsheng.
"Prince, the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects cannot be abolished!"
Chen Changsheng insisted on kneeling down to pay his respects, but the prince held him back and wouldn't let him do so.
After the two of them went back and forth like this three times, they finally sat down very politely.
"Your Highness, I wonder what brings you to my humble abode today?"
"Nothing, I just admire the Imperial Master and came to visit him specially."
"Is it really just admiration?"
Chen Changsheng stared at the prince with a smile, and the prince also looked straight at Chen Changsheng.
After three breaths, the prince spoke directly: "I want the position of the Ministry of War. Please help me find a way."
"I'm afraid I can't make the decision on this matter."
"You will find a way. As a knife in the hand of the emperor, it only takes a word from you to touch anyone you want."
"Your Highness thinks too highly of me. I really don't have that much ability."
Chen Changsheng refused again, and the prince said directly without any pretense, "Just tell me what you want."
"mine!"
"A metal mine that can be used to create magical weapons!"
"Besides that, I also need a large amount of military supplies."
"You're joking, Imperial Master. Even if the entire Ministry of War were put together, it probably wouldn't be worth that much."
"With this thing, I think it should be enough!"
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng took out something and placed it on the table.
Looking at the palm-sized jade plaque on the table, the prince frowned and asked, "What is this?"
"Qilin communicator, a device that can maintain communication across billions of distances."
Upon receiving this answer, the prince frowned and said, "This is at most a special token of trust, nothing special."
"As long as it's just a communication function, there's really nothing special about it."
"But what if this thing costs only one-tenth of the price of the token of exchange?"
"One tenth, the Imperial Master must be joking."
"I'm not kidding. This thing is not only cheaper, but it can also be used by people all over the world."
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng took out a jade slip and pushed it over.
"The functions of the Qilin communicator are all included here. Your Highness can take a look."
......
