Du Chengfeng remembered clearly that the relationship between him and Liu Yanran, the commander-in-chief of Jizhou, could only be regarded as a cooperative relationship.
Liu Yanran opened the Jizhou arsenal to him so that he could sharpen his sword and increase his strength, and he could temporarily fill the vacancy of Jizhou Ordnance Chief Wang Gaocheng to provide a boost for Jizhou's war preparations - and this supplement It can only be regarded as temporary. He did not agree to Liu Yanran's solicitation. This job can only be regarded as outsourcing at best.
But that's what he thought, but Liu Yanran had another idea.
"In other words, Governor Liu used his name to recommend me to the court?"
After arriving at the official office, Du Chengfeng couldn't help but feel speechless after learning all the reasons for the incident.
The co-author, Governor Liu, had never given up the idea of recruiting him, but had the idea of getting on the bus first and paying for the ticket later.
Let him start his work first and send a letter of recommendation to the court at the same time. According to his understanding of Liu Yanran, before the letter of recommendation is replied to, Liu Yanran may start fighting with the north - then there will be a fight The frontier was in crisis, and the matter was urgent, so the Chen court had no choice but to hold their noses and acknowledge the letter of recommendation.
As for Du Chengfeng himself, when the war really breaks out and he is ordered to do so in danger, he will naturally find no reason to shirk and can only follow Governor Liu all the way to the dark side.
Well, the idea is very rich. At least in Du Chengfeng's opinion, this operation may really trap him.
The only problem is that Liu Yanran died too early.
Judging by the time, I am afraid that not long after the letter of recommendation was sent out, Liu Yanran was stabbed to death by He Xiqing because her strength had declined due to staying up late every day.
And this recruitment plan naturally failed.
In other words, only part of it has been completed.
"Why don't you hire someone else?"
Du Chengfeng immediately wanted to run away. He was not willing to accept Liu Yanran's favor - not to mention that he didn't want to have much to do with mental illness. Just talking about the position of Jizhou Ordnance Chief, he didn't want to take it.
Just, although he doesn't understand any tactics or tactics, he can still taste something even if he only looks at the two guys from Jizhou.
Liu Yanran has some mental problems. Wang Gaocheng is just a bastard. If you can think of putting these two gadgets on the border, is it okay for Chen Chaotang?
"I have something else to do, so let's not talk anymore. There is still water boiling on the stove at home."
"Hey, hey! My lord, please don't be too busy leaving! Besides, you're a newbie here, where did you come from?"
Seeing that Du Chengfeng was about to leave, a group of petty officials quickly grabbed him and tried to stop him from leaving, trying to persuade him.
"There's no need to resign! How well treated the Chief of Ordnance is! Not only do you get a salary every month, you even have a special residence for you in Yanzhou City..."
"Huh? Are you still sharing rooms?"
Du Chengfeng was no longer sleepy immediately.
After these junior officials explained, Du Chengfeng also knew that the salary of the Ordnance Chief here in Yanzhou was really good. Not only did he receive a salary every month, but he could also get a two-person courtyard in the city for free. ——The so-called "Don't go out through the main door, don't step out through the second door" refers to the two entrances to the courtyard. Not to mention living alone, it would be more than enough for a whole family.
I have a salary and a good place to live, so this job seems to be okay?
Of course, the most important thing is that he can also sharpen knives.
Jibei's experience has made Du Chengfeng understand that compared with external possessions such as money, one's own strength is the most important - if it were the other way around, he would be like the Yang family, who had only a million yuan, but in the end He had to leave his hometown and almost died in the war.
For Du Chengfeng, the fastest way to improve his strength is naturally to sharpen his sword.
Although killing people is another way to quickly improve their strength, that route is not safe after all. If he kills too much, his own state will be affected, and he will gradually lose his mind and turn into an inhuman monster like He Xiqing. What's more, if they really continue to kill like this, it will probably lead to more troublesome things.
After all, he still remembers that there are terrifying monsters in this world that are three meters tall and can even catch evil weapons with bare hands.
"What's more, before He Xi Qing, no one had discovered the method of becoming stronger by killing people?"
Du Chengfeng shook his head secretly. There was no reason why this kind of thing that could be realized by killing a few people and then firming up his will under the intrusion of evil spirits would become He Xiqing's exclusive secret.
So the question is, since many people know that killing people can make you stronger, why hasn't he heard of many people doing such a simple way?
Is it just because you don't like it?
"Um……"
Due to too little information, Du Chengfeng could not guess the result, but his intuition told him that this was a dangerous direction.
In contrast, improving one's strength by sharpening one's sword is a sure-fire business.
"So I have one last question for you."
After determining that this job was suitable for him, Du Chengfeng expressed his last doubts.
"I am the general ordnance commander of Jizhou, why would Yanzhou assign me a room?"
"this……"
The clerks looked at me and I looked at you, and were speechless for a long time.
It was only when Du Chengfeng clenched his fists and prepared to strike that the officials told the truth.
It turns out that before he came, there was a general ordnance chief here in Yanzhou, but not long ago, news of the destruction of Ji Zhen came, and the ordnance chief simply resigned and ran away.
"Originally, there was a grinder on the Predator's side, and I was going to let him take the beating, but he ran faster..."
"ah?"
Du Chengfeng was speechless for a long time.
Good guy, it's okay if two capable people are gone. No wonder he is treated so well. Are you planning to use him to top the tank?
But... this is not a bad thing for him.
If it were anyone else, these two jobs might mean a lot of pressure, but for him, this is an opportunity to sharpen his knife from one to two.
Why should he refuse if he can increase his strength?
"That's great!"
The junior officials couldn't help but bow their hands to Du Chengfeng.
"Then let's start investigating the damage to the weapons in the arsenal!"
"...Will you wait a moment?"
Du Chengfeng suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Is this also my job scope?"
After asking these junior officials, Du Chengfeng realized that this was really the scope of his work as the chief of ordnance. In other words, it is the most troublesome mess left by his predecessor - to put it simply, because the Yanzhou Ordnance Chief ran away too early, some changes began to appear in the Yanzhou arsenal, but they were different from those in Jizhou. Different sides, but the Yanzhou Arsenal was not caused by any war flag.
In Yanzhou's arsenal, from time to time, the weapons in the entire warehouse would turn into tattered scrap metal, and the evil spirit on those weapons would also disappear.
According to the descriptions of the minor officials, the traces left on those tattered weapons looked like they had been chewed by something.
"this……"
Du Chengfeng was speechless for a long time.
No wonder the people in Jizhou are almost losing their brains, but there is no movement in Yanzhou next door. It is not necessarily because they don't want to send troops, but because the arsenal is simply ruined.
And there are more things going on in Yanzhou City than just that.
"My lord, if you want to live in the city, it's best not to go out at night."
A clerk came over and lowered his voice.
"There has been a monster outburst in the city recently, and more than a dozen people have been eaten. The monster eats meat without spitting out the bones. For such a big living person, only one head is left..."
"...And there are monsters?"
Du Chengfeng inexplicably thought of He Xiqing and the appearance of the opponent's strange flesh-and-blood bird.
He could suddenly understand why the brains in Jizhou had been knocked out, but there was no movement in Yanzhou.
Just because Yanzhou City can survive to this day is probably a miracle.
