Welling thought about it carefully and felt that the reason for recruitment given by the valve owner, or the gambling chips, could indeed dispel his doubts.
If you put yourself in someone else's shoes, you will definitely make a bet once.
However, this deviated quite a bit from my expectation that the Li family leader was so kind to him because he had a certain understanding of his life experience.
In fact, the reasons given by the Valve Master have no direct direction or clues for finding his own life experience.
"Master Valve, do you have any good suggestions for me to find my life experience?"
Wei Ling was not polite and just dropped the bag and asked.
"Yes, I have an idea." Li Yuanming nodded with a smile.
Wei Ling couldn't help but sit up straight:
"Please give me some advice from the Valve Master."
"First of all, Wei Ling, you can't rush this matter. Anyway, even if you know your life experience, you still have to continue to work hard to practice and do things, right?"
"Yes."
"Then, I have a suggestion. You can't do a long-term stable job. You should go to more different places and be exposed to more different levels and information. One day, there will always be unexpected gains.
Therefore, you should retain your current status and qualifications in the imperial bureaucracy, but you don’t have to fight for your life in the legions, nor do you waste time doing small things in the Li clan, let alone waste your energy working among the people..."
Welling hesitated:
"Master Valve, what can I do and what should I do?"
"Do you know who is the highest-ranking official in my Li family?"
"It's Shizuro's third uncle, your younger brother, Li Jubai, the imperial censor, Mr. Li, the deputy prime minister of the empire and the head of the supervision system."
"Yeah, this is over? With this kind of relationship, what else are you struggling with?
Use your IQ and ability to become a member of the dark side of the empire, to spy on information, to investigate, to detect, to handle cases, haha, each has full freedom, both public and private, haha. "
"Is this okay?
I have not even completed my basic military service, and I am still a member of the investigation team. The matter may not be over. Also, will the subordinate departments of Yushitai want me? "
"Haha, I don't mean to throw away the unfinished business immediately. That would be too irresponsible. Wait until you finish it here. Besides, even going there will require some study.
If you have my request, how dare Jubai refuse to accept it? Oh, no, that should be said. It is his good luck that a talent like you can join their system, hehe. "
Well, okay, Welling acquiesced.
Only the leader of the Li clan can describe using power for personal gain in such a fresh and refined way.
"Thank you to the valve owner for your suggestion. We will consider it carefully and respond as soon as possible."
"Very good, there is one more thing. These days have been peaceful for a long time, and many of the disciples in the clan have forgotten about it. It just so happens that Shiro Shiro's service has ended.
This bastard has not even reached the intermediate level. I also want to see if he has improved after training in the legion.
I’m going to gather all the disciples with similar level of warlocks in the clan and have an exchange competition..."
"This... is not good."
Wei Ling was a little hesitant. Most of the methods he and Gonggong used were underhanded tactics to directly kill the enemy. Communication on such occasions had never been carried out before.
"It doesn't matter, just follow the way you usually learn from each other in Iasi. You can increase the intensity. I will prepare medical personnel and first aid facilities. As long as no one is killed."
Wei Ling and Shou Gong looked at each other and had a new understanding of Li Clan.
As farewell approached, Welling tried to throw out a message to find out what the valve owner said:
"Master, Shishiro placed us in the villa of a first-class guest minister. Isn't it a bit against the rules... Also, the guest minister's salary will not be accepted. We have not tried our best to do our best for the master, so there is nothing we can do." It’s better not to accept merit and reward.”
Li Yuanming laughed heartily:
"Haha, this is where you live. Anyway, you guys are worth it. I'm lucky to have you join me. In the future, if your level improves, you won't have to change your home. You can get it right in one step.
As for the salary, what you said makes sense. It will not be distributed for the time being. Anyway, you already have the salary from the empire.
If you pass the assessment and can enter a certain department of Yushitai, then you will still have a new salary from the empire.
I'll try to get Li Lingyou to join you. This guy needs supervision and can't let him go.
Since you let him follow you, he will most likely be a drag, which will only increase the burden. You should give him some compensation, which can be regarded as protection money for him. "
Wei Ling nodded with a smile and said goodbye to Li Yuanming.
…
After walking out of the main pillar hall and wandering for a while, I saw Li Lingyou, Xuan Ming and others strolling over.
After reuniting, Wei Ling mentioned to Li Lingyou the possible peer competition in the near future and the possible joining of Yushitai.
Li Lingyou's eyes were a little straight:
"Hey, I knew there would be no good things to eat when I came back... But I'm not afraid of the competition. After all, we have been trained by the warlocks who accompany the regular army.
It's hard to say what my future job will be. If I get a job in a certain department under Third Uncle, I'm afraid of secretly organizing Regulus XIV. "
Wei Ling was shocked:
"Regulus, what is that? I feel like those are the main stars of Leo."
Li Lingyou frowned and threw out the message:
"The imperial censor, one of the three princes, is equivalent to the deputy prime minister.
As for the Yushitai, the primary responsibility is to monitor the world. On the surface, it mainly has two parts: monitoring the internal officials of the empire and monitoring the social level. In fact, there is also an external one. Once I heard the third uncle accidentally revealed a little bit of the situation, it seems to be Xuanyuan fourteen.
This secret agency will compile some intelligence that cannot be seen on the surface and submit it to the Prime Minister's Office for government affairs and the Taiwei's Office for military affairs according to the actual situation.
I heard from my third uncle that sometimes the missions are very dangerous, and people often disappear when they go out. There are all kinds of secret battles that are not disclosed in the ordinary news level. "
"Well, I can imagine. Are you afraid?"
"Haha, as long as I follow you two, who is afraid of whom?"
Wei Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"The valve owner said that you are probably a burden, and you will also pay extra protection fees for me and the gecko, haha."
Li Lingyou's eyes were straightened, and he was stunned for a long time before wailing:
"I knew that with my uncle's temper, the protection fee would probably be deducted from my quota... It's terrible, it's terrible."
Wei Ling and Shou Gong looked at each other and laughed:
"Haha, Shishiro, considering the friendship between us, I have the nerve to ask for your protection money, why don't you just forget it?"
Li Lingyou smiled bitterly:
"No, no, you don't know how cunning my uncle is. If you return it to me later, he will still deduct it from my account."
"Haha, I think it's a good idea for the clan leader to do this. It can be seen from this that the Li clan attaches great importance to the foundation and foundation, and has very high requirements for the personal abilities of his children. Under such a system, it is difficult for a dandy to arise."
"That's necessary. Every time the empire competes for young talents, I, Li Clan, am the leader!"
"Four powerful families plus eight aristocratic families?"
"Yes, I have been number one for many years. If I forget to fight, I will be in danger. Only a family like mine, the Li Clan, can guarantee the empire's long-term prosperity.
Unfortunately, such a competition has not been held for many years. "
"Well, this should be true. Your family should be famous for being able to fight. Xiao Duhuo said at the beginning that your Li family is fierce, unreasonable and uncultured, but you are fastidious in doing things and have a bottom line. Haha, how do I feel about the family? The Lord is gentle and elegant, quite like an ancient sage."
Li Lingyou laughed:
"Haha, then Xiao Duhuo is making a naked slander. Our Li clan has always convinced people with reason, and we will be ruthless only if they don't accept it, haha.
However, the reputation of the Li family for being able to fight is mostly due to the excellent group of our guest guests. There are nearly 2,000 third-level guest guests in the family, four to five hundred second-level guest guests, and hundreds of first-level guest guests. As for the number of enshrinements, I don’t know. . "
"So, how many people do you think we will face if we compete with our peers?"
"Not too few. You see, there are only three brothers in my father's lineage. My father Li Daji is in the middle, the eldest uncle Li Yuanming, and the third uncle Li Jubai. But in their generation, there are more than ten cousins, and each cousin The brothers have many children.
Therefore, there are actually fifty or sixty men of my generation, not including sisters. Excluding those who have no sorcerer abilities, those who have exceeded the level of cultivation, and those who are no longer alive, I think most of them will. There must be more than twenty people. "
Welling had a headache:
"Stop it, it sounds overwhelming. In such a big family, there are many people and things to do, so the clan leader must be quite busy as well..."
"Yes, yes, every time my father comes back from wandering outside, he will secretly show off to me when he drinks, saying that he was lucky to have been born a few years later, otherwise, he would not be so cool and relaxed.
The survival strategies of powerful families, the competition and coordination among powerful families, the steady development of dozens of traditional and inherent industries, the opening up of new industries and financial resources, the development of direct lineage of main branches, the interests of collateral descendants, and the lives of generations of family servants. Status, communication and intimacy with guests and ministers...etc., it's exhausting. If you don't pay attention, it will also affect the strength, status and future of the clan..."
Welling was a little puzzled:
"You said your father hangs out all year round?"
"Haha, that's his own humble statement. Basically, whenever there is a major event and a slightly important figure in the clan needs to appear, he will go out and act as the mascot.
However, there are only a handful of times when it is necessary to be a mascot. More often, it wanders around without knowing where it is and does not leave the house for many years. "
"Oh, then your father must be very capable."
"Not high, only the late stage of a high-level warlock."
"Well, compared to your little beginner, the difference is indeed only two levels, not much."
Wei Ling rolled his eyes at Li Lingyou.
"Hey, it's boring to chat like this."
Xuan Ming dropped the bag curiously and asked:
"Brother, Brother Li, do the four of us also want to communicate and learn from the children?"
Li Lingyou laughed:
"How is this possible? I guess it's hard to say whether there are warlocks as young as you in the valve.
It depends on the situation, the chickens pecking each other is also very interesting. "
Nanxing pouted:
"Tch, I'm not a chicken. You and I are both beginner warlocks. If Brother Li is not careful and my spell takes effect, it will be enough for you to drink a pot."
The slave seemed a little disappointed:
"It all depends on the situation. If I injure or maim the child, it's not a good thing."
Xuan Ming changed the topic:
"Brother, we have been visiting the Imperial City for a long time. We really want to see this city, which is said to be the largest in the world. It is said that the Imperial City has 108 squares."
"Very soon, just these two days, after we finish the so-called exchange and discussion meeting, I will take you to a fun place, haha, a place where you can eat, drink, and have fun."
