Ningyuan Palace.
A cool breeze blew in from the window, and the candlelight swayed gently.
A man in black with a yellow face and thin muscles was kneeling on the ground. This man was Zhu Lian.
After a day of rest, he felt much better.
The toxins in his body have also been removed by Cao Zhengchun, and his internal strength is gradually recovering.
He was originally a great master, but he had been imprisoned and tortured by the Xue family over the years, but his belief in living made him improve even more.
As long as the injury heals, he is not afraid of anyone under the land gods.
"I wish Aiqing, how is your recovery from your injury?" Lin Xu smiled.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am much better now. I will recover in two days of rest."
The Grand Master's recovery ability is extremely strong, and most of the injuries he suffered were external injuries, which were really nothing.
"That's okay, get up!" Lin Xu nodded and said, "What are your plans now?"
"It's all up to His Majesty."
"Then from now on, the Anwu Guards will be disbanded!" Lin Xu said directly.
When Zhu Lian heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately knelt down in fear: "Your Majesty, what did I do wrong? We have been in the court since we were children. If we are allowed to leave, where can we go?"
"Stop, who told you to leave?" Lin Xu rolled his eyes: "The name of Anwuwei is already bad. Moreover, you have all been exposed. Obviously, you no longer qualify as Anwuwei."
"From now on, all the secret guards who have been imprisoned by the Xue family will be merged into Dongchang and become the force on the surface of Dongchang!"
"The responsibilities of Dongchang are similar to those of your Anwu Guards. Can you summon the old Anwu Guards now?"
Hearing this, Zhu Lian looked overjoyed and immediately said: "Thank you, Your Majesty! I can do it."
"I sent out the hidden information of the Anwu Guard before the accident. Without my order, they would never have revealed it."
Lin Xu's eyes lit up, this was such an unexpected surprise.
"Yes, how about loyalty?" He regretted it as soon as he said this.
It's been so many years, if the person who had different intentions would have left long ago, why would he wait so stupidly?
Those who can be summoned now must be loyal people.
As expected, Zhu Lian immediately replied: "Your Majesty, there is no doubt about the loyalty of the Anwu Guard. Even after so many years, excluding deaths, I can guarantee that the loss of personnel will not exceed 10%."
"Very good, then you go find Cao Zhengchun immediately. The two of you will integrate the remnants of the Anwu Guard into the East Factory as soon as possible. Please note that all previous strongholds will be abandoned."
“It’s straightforward to say that the funds are not enough.
"Yes, I'll go right away!" Zhu Lian clasped his fists and turned to leave.
Not long after he left, Bai Ye hurriedly walked in and saluted: "Your Majesty, the inventory of military supplies and food has been completed. There are three hundred thousand dan in total."
Lin Xu frowned: "Less than expected!"
"This is for emergency purposes, so the quantity will naturally not be too large. Moreover, Qianwu Country's grain output has never been high."
Bai Ye sighed.
"Forget it, you go contact You Jiuli tomorrow. Just tell her that I have solved 300,000 stones of food for her and ask her to prepare one-third of the new food."
"The remaining 200,000 stones are for her to find a solution on her own, but she must collect it within ten days."
Lin Xu was not sure about the situation in the disaster area, so it was naturally impossible for You Jiuli to spend half a month collecting it.
They can afford to wait, but the victims cannot.
"Tomorrow you will start escorting the food. This batch of grain is crucial, let Cao Zhengchun go there in person."
"Yes." Bai Ye nodded and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, those ministers have already sent over the silver to replenish the food. Do you want You Jiuli to make up for the three hundred thousand shi of new food as well?"
Lin Xu thought for a while and shook his head: "Forget it, just find someone to do it! Let You Jiuli concentrate on collecting food."
"Yes, slave, please resign!"
Bai Ye saluted and left Ningyuan Palace.
Lin Xu leaned on the dragon chair and rubbed his temples.
The emperor was more tired than he thought.
Even a great master like him can't bear it.
Disaster victims, food, and games with those old guys. Even with the help of Dongchang, I still feel a little powerless.
"Atong, do you have food there?" Lin Xu muttered silently.
[Of course, but it depends on the luck of the host. 】
[Tell you good news to the host. 】
[Tomorrow is a new week, you can draw new templates. 】
"Now?" Lin Xu's eyes lit up.
【Yes! 】
"Then extract it!"
[Extracting new templates, please wait...]
[Congratulations to the host, please choose one of the civil servant template, military commander template, and special template. 】
"introduce!"
[Civil servant template: The host spends 1 million silver to randomly summon a civil servant. (Civil officials are distinguished by strategy, the lowest is one star, the highest is five stars)]
[General template: The host spends 1 million silver to randomly summon a general. (Military officers are distinguished by their strength. The higher the strength, the wider their command and versatility)]
[Special template: The host spends 1 million silver to randomly summon a special talent, such as a blacksmith, doctor, mechanism expert, etc. (Special talents are distinguished by skills, with a minimum of one star and a maximum of five stars)]
Lin Xu swallowed hard.
All three are good.
"A Tong, given our relationship, it wouldn't be difficult to give me these three templates together!"
【It's really not difficult. Because it's impossible. 】
[This is your wishful thinking, even my grandfather who was traveling in M78 Nebula heard it. 】
[Hurry up and choose one, Mo Mo Chi. 】
The system was cursing and there was no room for negotiation. The last time a land god was tricked, he was autistic for several days.
This time it is a template, there is absolutely no negotiation.
Listening to Lin Xu's firm tone, it seemed that there was really no need to discuss, so he could only give up and start carefully selecting templates.
First of all, the civil servant template can be ignored for the time being.
There are internal and external troubles, and stability cannot be obtained by relying on the pens of civil servants. Then there are only generals and special talents.
After thinking for a moment, he gave up on special talents.
Although he has no soldiers and horses now, the generals are still the most suitable at the moment.
First of all, escorting grain requires a large number of manpower.
Especially the strong ones.
After all, the people in Dongchang are suitable for acting in secret and are not suitable for frontal combat at all.
If exposed on a large scale, it would be detrimental to Dongchang's penetration into various places and forces.
Even if Cao Zhengchun is in charge, there is a high probability that more than a hundred factory guards will not be used.
Hundreds of thousands of stones of grain are not a small amount.
Naturally, the more powerful people there are, the better.
What's more, there is another unstable factor.
That is the feudal king.
The Qianwu Kingdom has been in troubled times recently.
The court is not stable either.
We must find something to do for those feudal kings to prevent them from causing trouble.
[The general template is loaded successfully, and the host can spend 1 million taels to recruit randomly. 】
"Recruit ten first!"
Lin Xu was helpless. If Xue Jingruo hadn't sent someone to send five million taels of gold, he wouldn't have been able to recruit even if he got the template.
[Congratulations to the host for recruiting Yu Xing, his innate strength]
[Congratulations to the host for recruiting Wu Yue, his innate strength]
...
[Congratulations to the host for recruiting Shan Qiu Yun, a powerful master]
[Congratulations to the host for recruiting Leng Shan, a powerful master]
…
[Congratulations to the host for recruiting Qiu Wu, a powerful master]
[Congratulations to the host for recruiting Zhao Zilong, a powerful land god! 】
After ten recruitments, there were five innates, three masters, and only one great master and land immortal.
This probability is still acceptable.
"A Tong, are all generals recruited above innate level?"
【Yes! Originally, all strengths were randomized, but considering that the host was poor, this system was slightly modified. 】
"???"
"You're quite a nice person!"
Lin Xu had a dark face, although, looking at it this way, he was indeed very poor, relying entirely on Xue Jingruo, a rich woman, to support him.
But you said it so openly.
I don’t want to lose face? asshole!
