Chapter 353 Conditions
The voice fell in the field. At this moment, Li Wushuang, who had been forbearing for a long time in the past six months, no longer had any courtesy. There was frost on his face, and his eyes swept over these family heads one by one.
By this time, these family heads naturally knew that something was wrong. They dared to force Li Wushuang like this because they knew that the other party was a rational person who considered the overall situation and would not easily break up with them.
Of course she wouldn't be so angry with them just for the sake of temporary motivation. She would say this, and the reason is already obvious.
"Minister Li, we don't mean to be contemptuous of the Ministry of Armed Forces. Today's proposal is because the management of Fengyue Street is really not good. The discussion with the minister is purely for the coexistence of both parties. I never thought that we would offend the minister. It really scares us." The bearded head of the family stood up and spoke in an extremely respectful tone.
"I'm waiting for Jie Yue on the salary issue. Please calm down, Minister Li."
"Calm down?" These words just made Li Wushuang sneer, but soon, she seemed to think of something, and sat down again, "I have nothing to be angry about, but since you are all here today, I have some things to discuss with you. ”
"Minister Li, please speak." The bearded head of the family replied.
"God is coming back. He will lead an army of 200,000 and will soon take over Nange." Li Wushuang said, "This news will be spread to you by your scouts in less than two days."
As soon as this sentence came out, the guesses of these family heads were confirmed, and for a while, several people's faces looked a little panicked.
Seeing the expressions on these people's faces, Li Wushuang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "You should all know that what God hates most is family power. If he comes back and knows how dishonest you have been in the past six months, guess what? What will he do to you?"
"This..." After hearing this, several family heads looked a little ugly, and for a moment, they couldn't say anything.
Ye Fan's purge back then had wiped out almost all the hard-core members of the Nange City nobles. Most of the family heads left behind today are not very bloody. Just hearing the name of God will make them feel scared.
After a while, someone whispered: "God's temper is probably going to kill us."
"That's almost it." Li Wushuang nodded, looking at the embarrassment of the family heads, but there was a smile in his eyes, "But fortunately, you met me today, so you still have a chance."
"What opportunity?" A family head spoke up and said something, as if he felt that it was too urgent to be so urgent, and added: "Minister Li, although there have been some misunderstandings in the past six months, we can resolve them."
"The misunderstanding is a trivial matter. What I am going to say next is the big issue of whether you can stay." Li Wushuang opened his mouth, tapping his fingers on the table, and spoke slowly, "God will be back soon, so naturally there will be resistance. "
"He will definitely take over Nange, so if there is resistance, he will definitely be purged, such as the various noble families who have been in Nange City for many years..."
"Although we are nobles, we have no intention of confronting God." Hearing this, a family head quickly said, "Minister Li, you must believe us."
"I believe that your words are of no use. You have to let God believe it." Li Wushuang shook his head, but the smile on his lips still remained. "All the heads of the family are smart people. You should know what you should do."
After these words came out, several family heads became slightly silent. Soon, someone said, "Does Minister Li mean for us to take the initiative to surrender to God?"
"Some words are meaningless to say." Li Wushuang shook his head, "That's all. What the heads of the family do and say is up to you."
"Oh, you don't have to worry that Tiangong won't be able to take over Nange City. In addition to the 200,000 troops around Tiangong, there are also glory-level powerhouses sitting around. No one in Nanchuan can stop him."
"Glory level..." After hearing this, the family heads gritted their teeth, and then they could only nod their heads, "We all know what Minister Li means."
"If you know, go down and prepare. God will come to Nanchuan soon. If you are unwilling to surrender, you may still be able to run away with your whole family now."
Li Wushuang waved his hand and said something, watching the family heads retreat one after another with expressions as if they were dead fathers, with smiles reappearing on their faces.
The reason why she calmed down and did this after being angry was naturally to help Ye Fan clear some of the resistance to taking over Nange. Although she already knew that Ye Fan was unstoppable, since it would cause less trouble, less would be better.
…
Yancheng, the corner, the leader of the Mingxin clan, who had been wandering here for a long time, finally found a job - helping a large family unload goods in the east of the city.
"Xiao Chen, tell me, why do they not live together even though their children have filial piety and the old man misses them?" After grabbing a bag of goods from the carriage, Master Mingxin spoke to the skinny young man beside him and looked at him. The other party looked like he was struggling, and he controlled the elements silently, helping the other party to lift a little.
The young man is considered a friend of Master Mingxin here. During this time, they ate and lived together.
"Fortunately, I just have free time to think." Mingxin Sect Master replied. Hearing Da Biao's name, he felt a little funny. This was the pseudonym he gave himself when he entered the world and traveled around the world. After all, it was somewhat incompatible with the famous Mingxin Sect Master. .
Xiao Chen was used to the appearance of Master Mingxin, and it was helpless to say that he was always a member of the group everywhere. People like Master Mingxin who were nervous all day long and he was so skinny and rare The speaker is always excluded, which makes them partners.
Naturally, Xiao Chen didn't understand many of the words of Master Mingxin and couldn't answer his questions, but it didn't affect their life together.
"Come on, Da Biao. The person in charge said today that we have to carry three thousand bags of goods, otherwise our money will be deducted." Seeing that the leader of the Mingxin Sect seemed to be still thinking, Xiao Chen spoke and urged as he walked.
"The manpower is limited, so ten people can do the work that should be done by twenty people. I think this is unethical." Master Mingxin replied, also carrying the goods and moving forward, but he muttered, "Scholar families have a long history. Continuously supplying goods and monopolizing the city’s market, they have enough money, why are they still so stingy?”
"They just want to make more money, no matter what is moral or immoral." Xiao Chen replied, "If I can make more money, I am also willing to be immoral."
After saying these words, Master Mingxin frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Chen, seemingly a little dissatisfied, "Can just money buy away your morality?"
"Da Biao, you really don't know what to say sometimes... What is mere money? In this world, if you have morals, others will say that you are a good person, but if you have money, you can not only be a good person, but also a good person. If you want, you can become a great sage." Xiao Chen didn't seem to take it seriously. He replied, thinking of something, and whispered: "Look at the Li family who hired us. In the early years, the head of the Li family did not rely on smuggling and illegal hunting. He who started his business was once arrested for stealing things at that time, but now, he has fallen into the lap of the city lord and smuggled openly, and he is still making a lot of money. He can just spend money to build a few schools and hospitals. He is also known as the Great Sage of Yancheng."
"Are these goods we are carrying smuggled?" Upon hearing this, Master Mingxin frowned, looked at the things on his shoulders, and asked, "What are these?"
"What else could it be? It's just..." Halfway through, Xiao Chen stopped talking and coughed twice, then put it in the ear of the Mingxin Sect Master.
But after just a few words, Master Mingxin's expression immediately changed, "Why would the city lord allow the Shi family to do such a business? Isn't this harming people!"
"You can make money if you can." Xiao Chen replied, seemingly not surprised by such a thing, without much expression on his face. He patted the leader of the Mingxin Sect on the shoulder, "Okay Da Biao, these things are beyond our control. It doesn’t matter what kind of business he does, as long as he pays us wages.”
With that said, Xiao Chen continued to move forward. This time, the leader of the Mingxin Sect stopped in place, looking at Xiao Chen's back with a hint of confusion. Then he turned to look at the other moving workers. Each of them was in the same position as Xiao Chen. Same, head buried, numbly repeating mechanical movements.
No one cares about the cargo on their backs, let alone what they are used for.
This scene put a hint of surprise in the eyes of Sect Master Mingxin.
"Just because of money, you can ignore good and evil, is it a waste of morality..."
“Can money numb people to this point?”
