Chapter 353
I ran to the gate again and found Teemo, the captain of the city guard, and followed Teemo to an empty courtyard next to it. It used to be a nobleman's courtyard, but now it seems to be used as a temporary prison. . Now there are many guards standing in the yard, like a military important place.
The door of the house has been nailed directly from the outside. There is a staircase on one side that can go directly to the second floor. Follow Timo up to the second floor. After passing many guard posts, Li Huailin directly came to the lobby on the second floor. There is a The design of opening up and down allows you to see the lobby on the first floor from the second floor.
Standing on the top and looking down, it is simply spectacular. The entire hall on the first floor is now crowded with people, at least more than 300 people, and the amazing thing is that all of them are women.
All the surrounding exits were blocked, and all the windows were nailed shut. All the people downstairs were locked inside, and even the light was not enough. More than 300 people were crowded in one hall, and they had to sleep together. , This situation is more difficult than the dungeon. The dungeon is at least separated, with a dozen people in a cell, and this side is like a slave pen.
"Why did you bring me to the women's prison? I'm looking for someone who can work." Li Huailin asked looking at a bunch of women who looked like walking corpses below.
"My lord, there is no male prison, the men are all killed." Timo here replied.
"Damn it, did you kill that bastard? Who will help me if you kill me?" Li Huailin said immediately.
Timo Kuanghan, I don't know how to answer, isn't this an order from you, my lord? But Timo dare not say, do you dare to say that the Duke is a bastard? Too long?
"Master...Master, these are the servants of Marquis Filmut's family..." Leticia kindly reminded her.
"Oh? Is that so?" Li Huailin suddenly understood that it was his order to kill all the men, but he seemed to say that he should kill all the men in Philmut's family. These are just servants. The Nine Clans didn't punish them so simply.
But after thinking about whether these NPCs are dead or alive, it is better to find a few people first, so he said to Teemo next to him: "Call everyone over."
"Okay, my lord." Timo here nodded immediately, then changed his expression, and shouted fiercely to the people below, "Everyone come here to gather, the person next to me is the current prince of this principality. lord,
With Lord Ruolin in mind, now the Duke needs to find some servants! Come over to me immediately! "
"What, he is the guy who made us into this, with Duke Ruolin in his heart?"
"That's the Duke who ordered my husband to be beheaded?"
The crowd was excited for a moment, and the system prompts on Li Huailin's side began to swipe the screen frantically.
System prompt: Lei Sili's favorability for you has increased by 55 points, and her current favorability is: Admiration.
System prompt: Maggie Daigle's favorability for you has increased by 75 points, and her current favorability is infatuation.
system hint:……
system hint:……
In an instant, Li Huailin gained the favor of more than 300 women, and everyone's eyes on Li Huailin changed immediately.
"Is he the warrior who killed my husband? He's really handsome, no, my heart can't stop just looking at him."
"Look, sister, this is the benefactor of our family. He is the one who killed our brothers and sisters. Now we are the only two sisters left in the family. How should we repay him for such a great kindness!"
"Please let us be your servants! Although my sister and I are ignorant, we still know how to serve tea and water. Please accept us!"
"Accept me, I'm good at cooking, my lord, I'm willing to cook for you for the rest of my life!"
"Accept me!"
...
"Quiet! Quiet!" Because the situation below was a little out of control, Timo here was a little irritable. He was only given one meal a day. Where did these guys have the strength to yell here? Now Still being so noisy in front of the Duke, doesn't this make him, the captain, very embarrassed.
"Guards, flush the water down." Teemo had plenty of ways to deal with them, looking at the women who hadn't calmed down, Teemo said to the guard next to him.
"Forget it, I'll come." Li Huailin waved his hand, then took a step forward and said softly to the people below, "Shut up."
The whole scene fell silent for a moment, and the women below stood there like soldiers, and there was no one who spoke.
Timo was stunned, he really was the grand duke, he really wasn't at the same level as a soldier captain like himself.
"Okay, I'm here to find a few people. Is there anyone here who has been in Firm's cabinet before?" Li Huailin said to the more than 300 women below.
"Oh?" "That..." The group of people below looked around, most of them were maids in the mansion or family members of the implicated people, what is the cabinet? I don't know much.
"No one?" Li Huailin was stunned. There wasn't even a woman in the cabinet. Now that all the men have been slaughtered, do you really want to wait for someone to come and defect?
"That...that, I..." Just as I was thinking, a young woman below suddenly raised her hand.
"Huh? Is there really? Who is that, come up." Li Huailin pointed to the woman who raised her hand below and said.
"Someone bring this guy up here." Timo waved his hand, and immediately two soldiers walked in through the door next to him, and left with the woman. After a while, they appeared in Li Huailin with her in front of.
Looked up and down, this female NPC looks about 20 years old, she looks pretty good, but probably because she stayed in this place for a few days, her face is earthy and her complexion is very ugly, but she doesn't look like a woman in her clothes. The appearance of the maid does not seem to be worn by servants, judging from the material.
Li Huailin looked up at the NPC's name, it said Oliveira Pral, nodded and asked, "A member of Firm's cabinet?"
"It's not like..." Leticia next to her said suddenly, "I have seen almost all my father's cabinet members, without you, and my father's staff are basically in the main city..."
"No... not..., my father was a financial officer in the marquis's fiefdom. I learned from my father for a while when I was young, and I also helped him deal with some financial matters. Although I have not yet qualified to enter the cabinet, but I think it should be able to help you, my lord duke." Oliveira said here, "Please let me do your work for you, my lord duke!"
"Oh? Finance officer?" Li Huailin was very happy to hear that, "You know this? That's a rare talent, okay, you will be the Minister of Finance in my cabinet from now on."
System prompt: You are about to set Oliveira Praal as the Minister of Finance. Are you sure?
"Confirm." If there is no reminder that the other party is not capable enough, that's fine. Li Huailin is very happy, but he didn't expect to really gain something. He really found a finance minister, and now he has made a lot of money.
"Your Duke...you...you want me to be the Minister of Finance? This...how can this be done?" Oliveira said in surprise.
"Come on, believe in yourself, you can do it, if you don't do it, I will kill you." Li Huailin said with a smile, now that there is no one under his command, you dare say that if you don't do it, Li Huailin will really kill someone.
"My lord trusts me so much, then I will definitely work hard." Oliveira here said gratefully.
System prompt: Because of your leapfrog promotion, Oliveira Plar's favorability towards you has decreased by 30 points. The current favorability: admiration.
System prompt: Because of your leapfrog promotion, Oliveira Praal's loyalty to you has decreased by 30 points. Oliveira Praal's loyalty has already been low. If she drops again, she may defect Or the situation of direct rebellion, please pay attention to the players.
"I..." Li Huailin held his forehead, watching Oliveira's excited face suddenly dimmed, Li Huailin was also speechless, but forget it, there is no one now, even if the loyalty is low Just use it, the favorability is still positive, it shouldn't be so easy to defect.
Quickly looked at the system page, the name of Oliveira Praal appeared behind the minister of the Ministry of Finance here, and the finance side also began to be able to start operations, mainly because it was able to issue financial orders .
Take a look at the personal attributes of Oliveira Praal here.

"Great work, I finally have someone who can be used." Li Huailin said, "And it just happens to be from the Ministry of Finance, Oliveira, hurry up and collect taxes!"
"Tax collection? Is it the land tax in autumn?" Oliveira reacted quickly, and immediately began to enter the role.
"Yes, this is it." Li Huailin nodded.
"But my lord, our financial department is only responsible for calculating the amount of taxes. If it is implemented, it needs the Ministry of Internal Affairs to implement it." Oliveira said.
"Damn it, that means we need to find a Minister of Internal Affairs?" Li Huailin had a headache again, where to find someone was too much of a problem.
Just as he was worried, Timo over there suddenly came over and said, "My lord, the deputy commander of the Second Legion, McCann, is here, and he is waiting outside the door. Would you like to see him?"
"McKen, it seems that the Second Legion has settled down..." Li Huailin nodded, and then suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, "Wait, isn't the Minister of Internal Affairs equal to his adjutant... Isn't this McCann?" strengths."
