MTL - Master of Fist-v2 Chapter 1069 officialdom
Ting Shanhou himself is not a powerful seventh-level powerhouse, his talent is not bad at all, relying on resources to force his way up, but after stepping into the seventh level, he is completely obsessed, and he is addicted to power all day long He had long lost the acuity and responsiveness that a warrior should have, so he naturally had no resistance to Jiang Heng's sudden thunderous method.
Nearly the peak strength of the eighth rank, and Ting Shanhou is not a strong seventh rank at all. Being hit by such a majestic force, the power penetrates into the whole body, even though Ting Shanhou has recovered slightly at this time, his bones are still weak. It was also shattered by the shock, and it was impossible to recover quickly after a while.
"you...."
"Want to try again? Let me say one more sentence and give me a call-up order!"
Jiang Heng's tone was indifferent, and it was the indifferent eyes in which Ting Shanhou saw the killing intent, the other party would really kill him.
Ting Shanhou was frightened, although Ba Yuehou's instructions to him still appeared in his mind, but at this moment he couldn't care less, he wanted to live.
"Quick! Quick! Hurry up and get the call-up order for Marquis Wuwei."
Ting Shanhou roared, as if he would be killed by Jiang Heng on the spot if he spoke too slowly.
Following Tingshanhou's yelling, the people in the entire department gradually recovered from the shock, and soon several people got busy, and it took only ten breaths of effort to see a recruitment order. Come over, and at the same time there is a document.
After receiving the things, Jiang Heng nodded in satisfaction, but before leaving, he glanced at Hou Tingshan on the ground and walked over with a smile.
Ting Shanhou was a little frightened, even though he was physically inconvenient at this time, he still struggled to move back.
"Hehe, Marquis of Tingshan should be smarter in the future. Don't be shot to death sometimes. You may not know how to die. Of course, in the future, when you and I are colleagues and will inevitably deal with each other, I will be more straightforward. What matters is that you respect me and I respect you, and whoever has a good relationship with me, I will also have a good relationship with him."
Said Jiang Heng squatted down, slightly approached Ting Shanhou's ear and said in a low voice: "Ba Yuehou is just an old man who is about to quit the court, what can he give you? And you can think about the relationship between me and Your Majesty. Think about it, and I am still very young, what kind of situation will it be to have a good relationship with me after mastering the main battle group, you can think about it yourself!"
As Jiang Heng patted the other person's cheek, Hou Tingshan looked at Jiang Heng in a daze, as if he hadn't recovered from these words, and he was still a little dazed until Jiang Heng disappeared from his vision.
Ting Shanhou was already thinking about the content of Jiang Heng's words just now in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense.
"My lord, my lord, are you all right? This Wu Weihou is too arrogant. He was just a little-known little man before, but now he is so arrogant when he gains power. Sooner or later, something will happen."
Tingshanhou's closest subordinate officials hurried over to help Tingshanhou on the ground.
Ting Shanhou waved his hand and frowned for some reason.
"It's better to be more respectful to Marquis Wuwei in the future!" Hou Tingshan said in a low voice.
"My lord, this... this is the meaning of Ba Yuehou. Ba Yuehou wants to target this Wuweihou. If you don't do this, Ba Yuehou will have some opinions." The subordinate officials were a little worried, thinking that their master The officer is not afraid of being beaten.
"Hmph! What do you know? Think carefully about how this Marquis of Wuwei gained power? Who did he rely on?" Ting Shanhou snorted coldly.
"My lord, do you mean Your Majesty?"
"Well, nowadays you can't rely on anyone, and your Majesty is the most reliable. You also saw in the official inspection some time ago, that His Majesty's will, whoever dares to speak out and whoever dares to disobey.
Which one of those who had a fluke mentality was not beaten to the end? This Marquis has seen it clearly, it is no good to continue to eat and wait for death like before these years, Ba Yuehou's method will not work.
Of course, there is another way, that is to follow the right master and distinguish who is the boss and who is the second. "After recovering a little, Tingshan Hou and his subordinates went back to the office and closed the door before speaking slowly.
"My lord, who is the boss? Who is the second?"
"You idiot, are you the boss? Of course, His Majesty is the boss, and Wu Weihou is the second child. Following Wu Weihou, we have a lot of wealth. Now that Wu Weihou has just entered the job, he doesn't know much about the court. If now is the right time to seek refuge." Ting Although Shan Hou doesn't know much about sending charcoal in the middle of a crisis, he feels that the advantages of relying on Jiang Heng now definitely outweigh the disadvantages.
"But we may not be able to explain it to Ba Yuehou." The subordinate officer frowned.
He was born as a retainer of Marquis Tingshan, and he knew very well who his lord was able to sit in today's position.
"Ba Yuehou is old. Although he has prestige now, he has no power. He is just an idler. This Marquis has always been very respectful to him because of his promotion back then. If you don't know the situation, don't blame me for turning my face and denying people."
Ting Shanhou sneered, he didn't think Ba Yuehou could do anything to him, and he was the most powerful among the old aristocratic small groups nowadays.
The rest are either retired idlers or low-talkers.
At the same time, Jiang Heng was relieved to get the recruitment order. If he could, he still didn't want to use violence, but there was no other way. Usually, violence was the best solution at such times, and he couldn't delay it due to the limited time.
As for what He Ting Shanhou said, he really wanted a dog leg.
"I don't know if this guy understands what I mean."
Jiang Heng muttered, and his intuition told him that Ting Shanhou should be a smart person.
As Jiang Heng expected, not long after Jiang Heng returned to the mansion, an official who claimed to be a subordinate military department came to pay a visit, and at the same time sent a large stack of files and materials.
"I have seen Marquis Wuwei, and my subordinates came here to send Marquis Wuwei the list and information of my subordinate military officers under the order of the chief officer of my family. They are all young and elite officers who have great potential. If Marquis Wuwei Satisfied, my family's chief officer also said that the list can be sent over after the selection, and my family's chief officer will summon all those people soon.
As long as Wuwei Hou thinks about it, these people will be able to complete the transfer of military status soon. "
The visitor said with a smile and a very respectful attitude.
Asking the housekeeper Cui Fa to take over the large stack of documents, Jiang Heng nodded and said, "Thank you, your chief officer, for me."
"Hey, Marquis Wuwei.....this is some care from my lord, Marquis Wuwei, you are a person who is going to do great things, and the formation of the main battle army must be costly."
Seeing the subordinate officer approaching slightly, he took out a storage ring and handed it over in a low voice.
Seeing this, Jiang Heng was taken aback for a moment, and accepted it after a little hesitation.
"Tingshan Hou has a heart, and I will never forget Tingshan Hou's righteous deed in the future." Jiang Heng nodded, but he didn't show too much enthusiasm. With his current status, one sentence is often enough to make people feel at ease.
And what Tingshan Hou wanted was just a promise.
After the subordinate officer left, Jiang Heng inserted his divine sense into the storage ring, but with just a cursory sweep, Jiang Heng couldn't help but gasped.
"This Tingshan Hou is really a big hand."
Jiang Heng, the storage ring, is only a rough calculation, and its value is enough to support a demigod-level army of ten thousand people for thousands of years.
In fact, taking out this wealth this time also made Tingshan Hourou feel pained for a long time. Such a wealth is also slowly accumulated by him as the chief officer of the secondary military department for nearly 10,000 years.
He has only been sitting in the position of chief officer for a hundred thousand years. He also spent a lot of money to manage the position in order to secure this position. There are also many places to check.
At least he gave a lot of treasures to Ba Yuehou every thousand years. As for the money he gave to Jiang Heng, it was already a big expense, and he even took out some of his family's wealth.
The effect was indeed achieved, and Jiang Heng was very satisfied.
Although the Great Zhou Emperor promised to allocate resources, sometimes more rewards can form a team more quickly.
"Cui Fa, you have someone go to the Imperial Propaganda Department in the past few days, take my token, and say to issue a recruitment order to recruit people with lofty ideals..."
Jiang Heng described his criteria for recruiting legion soldiers.
Jiang Heng's standard requirements for legionary soldiers are not high, as long as they are low-ranking or above, they can almost meet the minimum requirements.
Secondly, there are also requirements on age, and the age cannot exceed 50% of the life limit of the realm.
This requirement basically guarantees that the team is still young enough, otherwise they are all a group of old people. At that time, after Jiang Heng trained these people, they would be given to them for nothing when they reached the limit of their lifespan.
Secondly, priority is given to recruiting the Dao of the Body and the Way of the Five Elements. The reason for this arrangement is because the Dao of the Body is the most suitable for him, and the Way of the Five Elements has some large-scale battle formations about this in the Wuji Dao Tianzong Collection.
Of course, if there are other law masters, as long as they meet the requirements, Jiang Heng will also consider selecting them, and they still have to interview one by one.
Jiang Heng thought for a while and decided to choose the atrium square as the interview location, which is the most extensive square outside the imperial capital, enough to accommodate tens of millions of people to hold gatherings at the same time.
As time passed day by day, a recruiting advertisement was continuously passed on to the inside and outside of the Imperial Capital through the Imperial Propaganda Department, and also to the ears of all casual cultivators and even some sect cultivators within the jurisdiction of the Imperial Capital.
Some people who have a little knowledge of this recruitment news have heard a little bit, so they have also heard of the brutality of this newly promoted army commander, but he is a fierce man who repeatedly challenged Ba Yuehou to fight **** battles.
As for those casual cultivators who are completely unaware, although they don't know who the leader of the legion is, this does not prevent them from being eager to move. It is true that the treatment in the recruitment advertisement is too favorable.
The best way for casual cultivators to earn income is to join some local sects, join some chaebols or chambers of commerce, or serve as dogs for some big families and powerful forces.
Among them, joining a chaebol or a chamber of commerce is the most comfortable, and you can often reap a lot of benefits while being easy and simple. You only need to accompany the caravan starship **** occasionally, which is still very safe. After all, this is the jurisdiction of the central imperial capital.
Just comparing the treatment described in the recruitment advertisement in front of them, they suddenly felt that the chamber of commerce, the chaebol, or the big family and powerful sect were all unsatisfactory.
For a while, countless casual cultivators started to move, even some working casual cultivators resigned from their original jobs one after another. Of course, some people were happy and some were worried, and some elderly casual cultivators scolded their mothers. It's a reality these days.
Of course, they are much better off. Originally, those chambers of commerce, chaebols and other forces were more willing to recruit young casual cultivators than old casual cultivators. After all, the upper limit of old casual cultivators can already be seen, but young people are different. If you add some resources Training, maybe in the future, you may be able to train a strong mid-range guard with good strength. This is indeed a good deal.
Nowadays, a large number of young casual cultivators resigned, and many old people saw the opportunity.
As for Jiang Heng, he looked through the files sent by Tingshan Hou every day, and roughly calculated that the total quota was nearly 80,000 people, but if some people whose age did not meet the requirements were excluded, it would be cut in half. And this eliminates some less aggressive ones, which eliminates most of them.
In the end, there were only about 5,000 people who barely met the requirements.
Jiang Heng was a little speechless, but it's normal to think about it carefully. After all, most of the potential and aggressive people have joined the main battle army or entered the slave guards of some big nobles and big families here in the imperial capital.
After all, the Standing Legion sounds like a legion, but if you say it badly, it is a nursing home.
On weekdays, the biggest business of the Standing Legion is to maintain the law and order of the empire's various jurisdictions, or the law and order of the commercial and economic center.
This is in the territory of the Four Kings, and these standing legions can occasionally use some wars, but they are really idle in the central imperial capital.
Trivial matters are almost handed over to the domain master-level powerhouse below. As for the daily life of the demigod-level powerhouse, most of them just drink tea and read newspapers.
Jiang Heng sighed. He felt that selecting people from the standing army might not be reliable among casual cultivators. At least most of the casual cultivators were still enterprising. Not so good~www.novelbuddy.com~ After careful selection, Jiang Heng finally sent the list of 2,000 names to Hou Tingshan and asked him to set a time to meet face to face.
After a while, Jiang Heng came to the atrium square.
During this period of time, he has asked Cui Fa to set up an office here every day, and Cui Fa will do registration and basic screening of casual practitioners who come here every day.
Cui Fa is a low-level third-tier cultivation base, and Jiang Heng didn't ask him to be responsible for too detailed recruitment content, but only asked him to do the screening and registration of age and rules.
Jiang Heng's visit today is to conduct a second batch of screening of personnel, and even if outstanding talents are found, they can be finalized in one go.
When we came to the atrium square, there was already a sea of people. At a glance, there were no fewer than hundreds of thousands of people, all of whom were densely packed with demigod-level powerhouses, but the low-level realms accounted for the majority.
"My lord, the number of people is relatively small. I heard that there are still a steady stream of casual cultivators coming over. Everyone is looking forward to this recruitment. After all, casual cultivators, everyone hopes to seize this opportunity. "
