Main Text Chapter 982: Too Many Gifts to Accept
It's not that Heaven is not allowed to accept monsters. In fact, there are many monsters in Heaven. It's just that it would be too eye-catching if all of Miao Yi's men were monsters. As soon as he led the men and horses out, they were obedient and full of monsters. Dongcheng District Commander's Mansion It’s become a monster’s den!
The deeper consideration is ultimately a matter of safety. Is it safe to bring the monsters from Xingxiu Sea? This is the real big problem!
From the eyes of the corps commanders who were looking at him eagerly, Miao Yi could see the eager anticipation in their eyes, looking forward to his exceptional promotion.
It's not that he hasn't thought about promoting one or two servants from these people, but after the Dangyin Mountain incident, he still doesn't feel confident about these people. From some aspects, these people are already corrupt, and they are all people in the big dye vat.
"The corps commander will stay for a moment, the others will step back!" Miao Yi summoned several corps commanders over, arranged the matters that Kou Wenlan had told him, and ordered them to post the Black King's notice.
Several people accepted the order, patted their chests and promised to get things done, and quickly left, eager to show off.
Miao Yi, who stood alone on the steps of the main hall, was silent for a long time, and finally decided to try Kou Wenlan's words. If there was no problem, he decided to use the Xingxiu Hai group.
Yun Zhiqiu has told him many times that the hosts from all directions in the Xingxiu Sea often look for him. As soon as he disappears, the hosts from all directions will guess that he has gone to the big world. They are all itching. If they don't give them an explanation, the four hosts will This guy may be so anxious that he will jump over the wall. No one will see the hope and be willing to endure the humiliation and bear the burden under the Six Saints.
As for the risks, there are all unreliable people below. Maybe it will be even more dangerous. I have been with danger until today. No matter how dangerous it is, there will always be a choice. As long as you control the way to and from the small world, the small world will still be your retreat!
With this idea in mind, he flew away before taking a formal look at his official residence, landed directly outside the city guard palace, and asked to see Kou Wenlan again.
When the two met, Kou Wenlan asked curiously: "Is something wrong?" After all, they had just separated.
Miao Yi smiled bitterly and said: "When I went back from my humble position, I saw black and white armor below. I couldn't even see a gold armor. I still want to hear the opinion of the commander-in-chief on personnel matters."
Kou Wenlan reached out for him to sit down and said, and he also sat down, "What? I gave you the power, but you can't find the right person? You want me to help you find someone?"
Miao Yi said: "You can find people if you look for them. It's just that some of the suitable people I know are not from Heaven. The commander-in-chief also knows that I joined Heaven not long ago. I don't know many people from Heaven. I will add thirty There are many Golden Lotus monks who are not from Heavenly Court, and I can’t let them all enter at once.”
Kou Wenlan was not a fool. He understood the meaning as soon as he heard this. It was a lie to come here to ask for instructions, but it was true that he hoped that he would come forward to help him. It was the first time that his newly promoted subordinate spoke. It was difficult for him to refuse, but he still said in a deep voice. : "More than thirty people have joined the Heavenly Court, and they are all Golden Lotus monks. This matter is a bit difficult to handle! I can help you solve it, but you have to understand that the selected personnel must be reliable. If there is any problem, I will not help You bear this responsibility, and if anything happens, you are responsible for it!" He definitely has the ability and background to let others take the blame.
"Yes! I understand, even if I don't trust you, I won't speak." Miao Yi replied, hesitated for a while and then said weakly: "Commander, there is another problem, these thirty people are all demon cultivators! "
"..." Kou Wenlan was speechless for a while, looking Miao Yi up and down, seemingly asking, don't you know anyone else who has been dealing with monsters? After he became speechless, he said: "It's just this once, it won't happen next time!"
"Yes!" Miao Yi immediately stood up, cupped his hands with gratitude and said, "I obey my orders!"
He really had no choice but to find Kou Wenlan. An outsider who joins Heavenly Court must be recommended by three people at the level of commander. To put it bluntly, it is a guarantee, and the person who guarantees it will be responsible if something goes wrong. Of course, he only knows Kou Wenlan at the level of the commander-in-chief, so where can he find guarantees from so many commander-in-chiefs?
As for the "never do it next time", Miao Yi is not worried. He has already joined the Heavenly Court, so he doesn't believe that he will not be able to meet three people at the level of the commander in the future. At worst, when he recruits people from the small world in the future, he can just find others to introduce him.
After receiving the approval, Miao Yi returned to the Dongcheng District Commander's Mansion with peace of mind. He went directly back to his own yard, came to the heavenly shrine in the main hall, and cast a spell to enter his own paradise.
There is still a courtyard inside, and the environment inside is well decorated by the predecessor Kou Wenlan, but Miao Yi is not interested in these things. He is not an elegant person and has never been interested in elegant things, so he goes straight to the main hall.
All the furnishings in the main hall were taken away by Kou Wenlan, making them look empty. This was a good thing for Miao Yi. Even if Kou Wenlan didn't take them away, he couldn't bear to use the things Kou Wenlan left.
In the center of the main hall, there is a golden disc that looks like a millstone, which occupies most of the hall. It is divided into three floors. There are grooves spiraling down from layer to layer. It seems to be for something to slide down. On the top is something similar to a candlestick.
The whole thing is chest high and goes straight into the ground. It is connected with the cave heaven and the blessed land. This is the magic weapon for collecting the wish beads.
Miao Yi stretched out his hand and stroked it in a circle. After casting a spell to check, he pointed two fingers on the magic weapon and inserted his own seal.
As soon as the seal entered, a soft white light immediately appeared on the candlestick-like candle above, as if the candle was lit.
Miao Yi smiled slightly. It seemed that Kou Wenlan's efficiency was quite high. His seal was inserted into the candle, and the candle could be lit, which meant that Kou Wenlan had deposited his seal into his branch magic tool. Otherwise, there would be no response.
In other words, the wish collection on his side was allocated by Kou Wenlan. This thing was more advanced than the wish collection magic tool of the small world. At least there was no need to do annual payment and escort. It was too troublesome to run around.
Soon, a drop of "wax tears" slid down and bounced in the groove of the disc. A wish bead the size of a quail egg appeared, rolling along the screw mouth and sliding into the bottom groove.
Miao Yi cast a spell to absorb it in his hand and twisted it between his fingers. It was a top-grade wish bead. This was the salary of his commander.
His salary is one million top-grade wish beads per year, which is one hundred million low-grade wish beads, not less than the annual income of the six saints in the small world. Of course, the six saints have other incomes, but he also has other incomes. Sitting in such a lucrative position, the tribute from tens of thousands of shops in Dongcheng District alone is not a small number every year, which is not comparable to the six saints at all. This is the cultivation resource of the big world.
The ding-dong sound on the disc kept ringing, and the top-grade wish beads kept appearing. The sound of spring water ding-dong sounded quite pleasant, and the craftsmen who designed and refined it also spent a lot of effort. This is not only his salary, but also the salary of the staff in Dongcheng District is also concentrated here, and he issued it.
After watching for a while, he stretched out his hand and cast a spell to raise the candle on the first level of the disc. The sound of the wish beads falling immediately became much more urgent, and the middle-grade wish beads appeared and rolled down. Casting a spell again to raise the candle at the first level, the low-grade wish beads immediately rolled out with a rustling sound, which sounded a bit noisy.
I returned to the state of collecting top-grade wish beads. The sound of the spring water was better...
Tianjie, with the city guard palace as the center, was divided into four districts, namely the east, south, west and north. The leader of the East District was replaced, and people came to the commander's mansion to congratulate them. They were all shopkeepers from major shops who came to visit. Naturally, they all brought gifts. They all went to the commander's mansion first and then came here. There was no need to distinguish between the main and the secondary, and the importance of the gifts was naturally distinguished.
Miao Yi, who was in charge of the commander's mansion, had not accomplished anything in the past few days. He had temporarily put aside the personnel affairs and was busy receiving the shopkeepers from major shops. There were tens of thousands of shops in the East District, and it was impossible to receive them one by one. He could only deal with some wealthy merchants and those merchants with more backgrounds.
The difference between being a lieutenant and a general was immediately apparent. Usually, those big merchants would not necessarily pay attention to a lieutenant. They had a certain background and power to gain a foothold here, so they did not need to look at the face of a small lieutenant. However, it was different when dealing with the general in charge of this place. Whether they looked up to you or looked down on you, you had to deal with the situation on the spot, otherwise they would probably pick on you and make things difficult for you, not to mention that Miao Yi had Kou Wenlan as his backer.
Kou Wenlan's level of backer was not something that ordinary people dared to mess with. For example, after Xiahou Longcheng caused trouble in Dongcheng District, he destroyed so many shops and ran away with a lot of debts. Who dared to say anything? Who dared to go to Xiahou Longcheng to collect the debts? They could only think that they were unlucky. In fact, those shops were the parties involved. They saw with their own eyes that it was Kou Wenlan's people who robbed the things in the shops, but who dared to say anything! It's better not to want to mix with them. His background can really confiscate your family and exterminate your clan. Didn't you see that Madam Biyue turned a blind eye!
The visitors invited Miao Yi one by one on behalf of their masters, inviting Miao Yi to visit a certain place when he was free, which immediately broadened Miao Yi's network of contacts.
Miao Daguanren was also very tired of receiving gifts, and the smile on his face was almost stiff and became a stereotype. He couldn't just smile when someone came to give him gifts, right? Many shop owners who were not up to standard didn't even see him, and they knew that he really couldn't see him when he took office. From the endless stream of people outside the Commander's Mansion, it can be seen that they could only leave gifts and name cards to say goodbye.
For several consecutive days, he had been entertaining day and night. In fact, monks didn't care about day and night, but just adhered to some primitive human habits. After a few days, when the crowds gradually decreased and became idle, someone handed him a name card. Miao Yi opened it and was stunned. Huangfu Junman from the Heroes Hall was here.
Why did this woman come to join in the fun? Why did you from Xicheng District come here to congratulate? Miao Yi, who was afraid to avoid her, felt a little toothache and was a little afraid to see her. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature. The novels are better and updated faster!
