"So, if I don't spare them, you won't do your best to refine elixirs and cultivate medicine for me?"
Xie Feng smiled and glanced at the faces of these slaves.
"Master, that's not what they meant!"
"These dog slaves can't talk, please don't misunderstand me!"
When the two stewards heard this, they cursed these dog teammates in their hearts.
After they knew that Xie Feng had returned home, they immediately called in the slaves they usually win over and asked them to plead for mercy in front of Xie Feng.
These people are all good at refining elixirs and cultivating elixirs, so they are naturally very important to Xie Feng.
They had planned it long ago. With these people interceding for mercy, Xie Feng would definitely have some scruples and not dare to punish them too harshly.
Otherwise, these people will not be able to work hard in the future, the elixir room in the mansion will not be able to refine elixirs, and the elixirs in the medicine garden will wither and die, which is definitely not something Xie Feng can bear.
"Don't worry, I didn't misunderstand, that's what they meant!"
Xie Feng narrowed his eyes and said with a sneer.
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for the two stewards to defend themselves, Xie Feng suddenly raised his palm and smacked it out.
Two giant palms of zhenqi fell, and the two stewards immediately turned into two balls of flesh!
The two stewards originally thought that Xie Feng would definitely punish them, but they were not even willing to accept the punishment. They believed that they controlled the most important alchemy room and medicine garden in Xie Feng's mansion, and there were important servants interceding, so they would definitely be punished.
fine.
How could they have imagined that Xie Feng would not take this into consideration at all, and could not tolerate sand in his eyes.
The dozen or so slaves who stood up to plead for mercy suddenly turned pale and trembled.
Even the two stewards were killed directly, so what are they slaves?
"Lu Jin, take down everyone who asks for mercy, skin them and hang them in front of the slaves' residence, so that everyone will remember this fate!"
Xie Feng looked at the housekeeper and said, "Also, check the accounts of each room in the alchemy room and the medicine garden. If anyone is found to be corrupt, they will be punished together."
These two stewards were certainly not able to win over so many slaves just by talking nonsense. If they had not received benefits, they would not have been able to side with them.
Moreover, Xie Feng could have killed all these slaves, but after thinking about it, he decided to leave it to Lu Jin to kill them and let him establish his authority.
Otherwise, I will have to deal with everything in the mansion by myself in the future, which will be too troublesome.
Lu Jin must be allowed to take charge of the mansion, and I only need to control him alone. This would be much simpler.
"Master, I'm afraid this is not good..."
Lu Jin looked embarrassed. He knew in his heart that it was impossible for these stewards and servants not to be greedy.
Even he himself had such a thing, otherwise he was just a slave and would not have been able to save the pills dedicated to Xie Feng.
Xie Feng handed him the matter of withdrawing the investigation, which was tantamount to letting him establish his authority. He said whoever was corrupt was not corrupt, and whoever was not was corrupt.
But such a big purge will definitely kill a lot of people.
These slaves are nothing but pitfalls. If they die without anyone to replace them, the mansion's income will decrease, which is not good for Xie Feng.
"It doesn't matter, there are fewer slaves, just buy more.
The things in the house that I have given to you are yours. If you take them privately, you will be dead."
Xie Feng said coldly.
Seeing Xie Feng's determination, Lu Jin no longer hesitated and immediately ordered a dozen slaves to be captured and skinned.
Then, he took his cronies with him to each room to conduct audits.
After everyone dispersed, Xie Feng did not go to practice in the quiet room, but sat cross-legged in the hall to practice.
"Master, I have already taken care of everything."
Late at night, Lu Jin's voice came from outside the hall.
Xie Feng opened his eyes and was slightly surprised. There were more than ten places in the mansion including various rooms, warehouses, medicine gardens, animal gardens, etc.
I originally thought that Lu Jin could finish it within three days, which would be good, but I didn't expect it to be so fast.
"Come in and talk."
After thinking for a while, Xie Feng said.
He wanted to see if Lu Jin was perfunctory or if he really got things done.
If it is just perfunctory, this person will definitely not be useful in the future. If it is done well, then he is a talented person.
In this way, the plan that I had considered before could be carried out.
"Sir, the accounts of each house have been checked, and a total of 137 people were found to be corrupt, of which 42 were serious, and they have been executed.
Including the thirteen people who begged for mercy before, fifty-five people have been killed now. If they continue to kill, every room will be paralyzed."
After Lu Jin entered the palace, he knelt down and said: "So, I beg you to be more generous to these minor offenders.
In addition, as the housekeeper of the house, this kind of thing will happen because of lax control. I beg you to punish me."
"What was your identity before you entered Moron Peak as a slave?"
Xie Feng ignored Lu Jin's words and asked instead.
Most of the servants of the Motian Holy Cult became slaves for various reasons.
"Old slave, he was originally the third prince of the Luyue Empire, and his name was Lu Jin.
Because I became a slave and did not want to disgrace my family name, I changed my name to Lu."
Lu Jin was startled for a moment, but he didn't expect Xie Feng to ask about this matter.
Once you become a slave of the Ferris Holy Cult, you will never be able to get over again, no matter what your previous status was.
Therefore, generally no one cares about the previous identities of these slaves, because within the sphere of influence of the Holy Religion, no one can resist the power of the Holy Religion.
Even if a slave escapes from the Holy Cult, he will be hunted forever.
What's more, each of the Thirteen Peaks of the Lotus is equipped with a ninth-level formation. It is absolutely impossible to escape.
"The third prince of the Luyue Empire?
This Luyue Empire is a third-class force, so it is not weak at all, but your majestic prince has actually become a slave?"
Xie Feng was quite surprised. He took a closer look at Lu Jin and discovered that Lu Jin's own bloodline talent was not weak.
In fact, Lu Jin's bloodline talent has reached the third level, and he can be regarded as a semi-peerless genius.
It's just that 90% of his bloodline was extracted, leaving only 10%, so his talent became mediocre.
"The old slave lost most of his cultivation because he lost the battle with the eldest brother Lu Yu for the throne.
Lu Yu is vicious, and instead of killing me, he sent me to the Motian Holy Cult as a slave, just to make me a slave for the rest of my life and regret it for the rest of my life."
Lu Jin said with a wry smile.
"If I guessed correctly, when you were seizing the heir, someone from the sect should have intervened, right?
Otherwise, your eldest brother will not be able to send you to the church with confidence."
Xie Feng asked.
"Lu Yu's strength was indeed inferior to mine back then, and my father was more optimistic about me and wanted to make me the crown prince.
But Lu Yu fawned over a very powerful true disciple in the sect, and kept robbing and killing my masters. It didn’t take long before he killed all my people, and also got rid of two generals who supported me...
…”
Lu Jin's eyes were blood red, as if he was remembering what happened back then.
Xie Feng didn't ask any more questions, he told everything himself.
However, they did not mention which true disciple was involved in seizing the legitimate son.
