When Chen Hao walked towards the door, Xuanyuan Jian said calmly: "Now you just have the opportunity to learn the emperor's mental skills. It does not mean that the skills are yours. Five hundred million is already a sky-high price. You can't be greedy.
Chen Hao turned back and glanced at Xuanyuan Jian and said: "There is a saying that the emperor does not have to worry about eunuchs. Whether I can learn stunts or not is my own business. Do you need to worry about it?"
After Chen Hao finished speaking, he left without looking back. Xuanyuan Jian watched him leave coldly, glanced at Liu Bang next to him and said, "This friend of yours has quite a personality."
Liu Bang said with a cold sweat on his face, "Young Master Long, he probably doesn't know your identity, and he doesn't want to give up the imperial power, so his attitude is a bit harsh..."
Xuanyuan Jian waved his hand and said, "You don't need to explain. I have a clear sense of grudges. It's none of your business this time. It's Chen Ba who doesn't know how to praise me."
Liu Bang said quickly, "Young Master Long, how about I try to persuade him again and ask him to apologize to you? If you give me a little bit of mercy, don't argue with him."
Xuanyuan Jian said calmly: "I will not fight with a small character. Even if he is polite to me, as long as he does not agree to transfer the opportunity to learn the emperor's mind, I will still find a way to compete with him. It is useless to talk more."
Obtaining A-level stunts in the game is hard to come by. There are only 10 A-level stunts in the Machiavellian area of China. The only way players can guess how to obtain them is the Emperor's Mind Technique. There are many ways to obtain stunts, such as Chen Hao's galloping horse.
Upgrade rewards. If players who want to be the boss miss this opportunity, their hope of obtaining A-level maneuvering stunts in the future will be even slimmer.
So Xuanyuan Sword will not give up even if there is a chance. Since Chen Ba has seized the opportunity first, he will find a way to destroy it.
Liu Bang soon understood the reason. He said goodbye to Xuanyuan Jian and was about to leave. At this time, Xuanyuan Jian said coldly: "I keep my word. If you make an appointment with Chen Ba to come out for an interview first, I owe you a favor. I will help you get it."
That piece of land in the Lower East City. If you were loyal and wanted to leak the news about my dealings with Chen Baxian, I wouldn’t blame you, but that piece of land is gone."
Liu Bang shook his head and said: "Thank you, Mr. Long, for your kindness! I am going to focus on the development of the game. I am not going to develop the land in Dongcheng."
Xuanyuan Jian was a little surprised and said, "Even if you didn't inform him, he would have guessed with his intelligence that I would find a way to sabotage his mission. Is it necessary for you to give up the benefits you got?"
Liu Bang smiled slightly and said: "If Mr. Long hadn't told me about this, maybe I would have pretended to be stupid. Since I already know, I won't say sorry to my friend."
"Haha! They say that the eldest young master of the Liu family is loyal. I believe it today. You are the only one of the four young masters in Kyoto who is still the number one. I still say the same thing. Go tell your friends, I don't blame you, but I won't either
Give up the imperial mentality.
Xuanyuan Jian is not that kind of brainless person. He looks arrogant in front of Chen Hao because he feels that the person who is willing to sell the headquarters construction drawings is probably a money-obsessed person. The only way to meet such a person is because of his imposing manner.
Only by suppressing him can he avoid asking for excessive prices. After testing, Xuanyuan Jian found out that the other party really had no intention of selling his special skills.
Exiting the game and entering the game's virtual reception room, Xuanyuan Sword summoned more than a dozen elites and asked them to keep an eye on Chen Baxian's movements. On the other hand, Liu Bang also found Chen Hao and told Xuanyuan Sword that he was trying to prevent him from completing the mission. Chen Hao laughed.
Said: "This is human nature. I refused to transfer my stunts to him. It's normal for him to want to stop me from completing the task and then look for opportunities on his own. Brother Liu Bang will not be retaliated by him for revealing the news to me, right?"
Liu Bang shook his head and said: "Xuanyuan Sword has a high status, but he has always been fair in dealing with things. He will not do anything to me. You don't have to worry about me. On the contrary, it is you. If he wants to prevent you from obtaining special skills in the game, it is estimated that the task
The difficulty will increase a lot.”
Chen Hao pondered for a while and said: "It's okay! Even if he destroys the mission stunt, it won't fall on him. I'll just spend some time on it."
If Xuanyuan Sword arranges for manpower to destroy the system, a two-way mission will be generated. However, since the mission reward remains unchanged and artificially increases the difficulty, the system will reduce the difficulty in other aspects. Therefore, Xuanyuan Sword's blocking will have little impact on him. After Liu Bang left, he arrived in a carriage
After arriving in Yongshun County, he took out a hundred oceans from his bag and sealed it, and walked towards the county government office.
Chen Hao found a yamen servant and quietly walked over with two yangs and said, "Can I please inform the county magistrate that the stranger Chen Ba wants to see you first?"
The yamen officer calmly took Dayang and said coldly: "Wait here!"
The yamen servant came to the county yamen back hall and informed the county magistrate Shi Hong. Shi Hong said calmly: "Have you heard of Chen Baxian? Is he a local squire?"
The yamen servant knew what the county magistrate meant when he asked. If it was a country squire who came to ask for help, a sufficient amount of money would be indispensable. If it was just an ordinary farmer and the county magistrate was not interested in meeting him, this gentleman would not accept bribes in a classy manner. If the money was short, he would not care.
.
The two oceans that Chen Hao handed to the yamen servant worked. He shook his head and said: "He is not a local squire, but he is a stranger. I think this stranger is quite extraordinary. He should have a lot of money."
Shi Hong twisted his beard and said: "I have been here as an official for a few months, but I have never met a foreigner. Since a foreigner came to visit me today, I will pay him a visit to show my love for the people."
!”
Chen Hao followed the yamen servant to the back hall, bowed his hands to Shi Hong and said, "Chen Ba, a common man, has met the county magistrate first."
Shi Hong glanced at Chen Hao and said calmly: "That's all! Why are you here to see me?"
Chen Hao handed over a large letter and said: "I heard that your Excellency loves the people like his own children and wants to rebuild the county school. The common people want to do their best, so I came here to donate 100 large coins."
Shi Hong took Dayang and said with an admiring look on his face: "Ba Xian is really noble and honorable. I am worried about repairing the county school. Your coming here just solves my urgent need. If you have anything to tell me, right?
An enlightened country squire like you will take more care of me."
Chen Hao said respectfully: "The three bandit Zheng Laosan of the Poison Dragon caused trouble in the countryside. My uncle's family was massacred by him. The common people hope that you can appoint soldiers from the patrol battalion to kill the bandits and restore peace to the countryside."
Shi Hong couldn't help but be stunned. This stranger's request was beyond his expectation. He originally thought that the other party was sending money because of the lawsuit, but he didn't expect that the target was the Dulongshan bandits.
The bandits were a thorn in Shi Hong's heart. His predecessor lost his official position because he lost troops and generals in two campaigns against bandits. Therefore, Shi Hong did not seek merit but sought no faults. He falsely reported that the bandits had accepted the recruitment and dispersed, and did not dare to send patrols.
Encampment and suppression.
Shi Hong weighed the heavy ocean in his hand and sighed: "Ba Xian, unless I don't try my best, the bandits are extremely ferocious and the county patrol camp lacks training. It is really not easy to kill them. We can only
Figure it out slowly."
Chen Hao smiled confidently and said: "What you say makes sense. If these bandits were really powerful in the past, now it is very easy to eradicate them. You can get credit easily."
When he heard that he could easily get credit for annihilating the bandits, Shi Hong's eyes lit up and he said, "I'd like to hear the details."
Chen Hao told Shi Hong the relationship between the three bandit leaders in Dulongshan and said with a smile: "Li Dahu, the third leader of Dulongshan, has been hanging around the brothels in the county for a long time. If he can be captured, he can use coercion, inducement, and
He is dissatisfied with Zheng Laosan, and he will definitely be willing to seek refuge with the government as an internal response. If your Excellency leads troops to encircle Dulong Mountain again at that time, he will definitely come down with a bang."
Shi Hong thought for a moment and then shook his head and said: "This matter is serious, I have to think about it carefully and I will give you the answer tomorrow!"
"The gangsters in Dulong Mountain are causing harm to the neighboring countries. As time goes by, paper can't contain the fire. I hope you can make up your mind as soon as possible and let the common people say goodbye!"
Chen Hao left the Yongshun County Government Office. The player who was hiding in the dark and monitoring quickly reported to Xuanyuan Sword. Not long after, Xuanyuan Sword also entered the Yongshun County Government Office. After insinuating himself, he learned the purpose of Chen Hao's visit to the County Government Office.
He also guessed that the key to learning the emperor's mental skills is to eliminate the bandits in Dulong Mountain.
Xuanyuan Jian took out three letters and said: "Your Excellency has adopted a tolerant policy since taking office, and the people of Yongshun County live and work in peace and contentment. If the bandits are angered and cause them to go down the mountain for revenge, I am afraid that they will be like Master Wang before, who was unable to exterminate the bandits but was harmed by them."
. The common people are willing to donate 300 oceans to help you prepare the patrol camp. After the training of the patrol camp is completed, you can then encircle and suppress the bandits. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Shi Hong was originally hesitating whether to encircle Zheng Laosan's bandits. When he saw the 300 yuan sent by Xuanyuan Sword, he narrowed his eyes and said: "This is what an experienced person said. I almost got confused if I didn't check for a while.
Xuanyuan, please rest assured, I will never start the war lightly before the training of the patrol battalion is completed."
Xuanyuan Jian and Shi Hong had a good chat. They had dinner at the county government office before walking out. He ordered his ten elite players to go to Dulong Mountain to join the bandits. If Chen Ba led the attack first, these ten elites could help the bandits defend themselves against the enemy;
If Chen Baxian's mission fails, these ten players have gained Zheng Laosan's trust and can act as internal agents. This is a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
Chen Hao didn't know that Xuanyuan Jian had gone to the county government. The next day after he asked for an audience, the county magistrate Shi Hong said calmly: "Ba Xian, it is my duty to eliminate bandits in the countryside, but the patrol camp has neglected training, so I'm afraid it won't be able to take on the important task of encirclement and suppression."
. Now you and other strangers understand the righteousness well. You donated 100 oceans to repair the county school, and the stranger Xuanyuan Sword donated 300 oceans to build the patrol camp. I believe that the day when the patrol camp is completed will be the time when Zheng Laosan's bandits will be destroyed.
, just wait patiently."
Chen Hao couldn't help but frowned. He felt pressured by Xuanyuan Sword's intervention so quickly. He could have offered more money to bribe Shi Hong, but he did not do so. Even if he could offer money again to bribe Shi Hong,
If he changes his mind, Xuanyuan Sword will also invest more money to stop it. It would be foolish to compete with Xuanyuan Sword for financial resources.
However, if Shi Hong cannot be persuaded to send a patrol camp to encircle and suppress Dulong Mountain without external pressure, even if there is internal strife, Dulong Mountain cannot be conquered, and the mission of the emperor's mind cannot be completed. With no good solution for the time being, Chen Hao had no choice but to say goodbye to Shi Hong and leave the county government.
