I Just Won’t Play by the Book

Chapter 432

When Jiang Beiran officially took the top spot in Shengguo, what was originally a trivial meeting turned into a formal meeting to discuss how to change Shengguo in the next stage.

After the meeting started, Ji Qinglin threw one question after another, as if he was testing how much Jiang Beiran knew about Shengguo.

But these questions are too simple for Jiang Beiran. Not only did they answer them very clearly, but they even gave Ji Qinglin supplementary explanations and a certain degree of popular science.

"As expected of a good emperor in Master's mouth, he does have some skills, so how do you think Shengguo will develop in the next stage?"

"Cultivation and recuperation." Jiang Beiran replied without any hesitation, "The same sentence, Shengguo is a weak country, and there are too many things that are lacking. Now what we need to do is to fix the basics first, so When the opportunity comes, we can seize it.”

"Opportunity?" Ji Qinglin looked up at Jiang Beiran: "What kind of opportunity?"

"Nature is an opportunity to compete in the Central Plains."

"Chasing the deer... the Central Plains?" Ji Qinglin looked at Jiang Beiran with some complicated eyes, "Want to go to the sky in one step? Are you not afraid of pulling the eggs?"

"Everything is possible, provided that all preparations are made for that opportunity." After speaking, Jiang Beiran looked around all the leaders present, "In short, starting today, all infighting is prohibited, and all unstable factors must be eliminated. It nips in the bud."

"As for the division of the site and the focus of development, I will make a detailed plan when I go back. At that time, we will still make the final decision by holding a meeting."

"Okay." Tai Yingzong was the first to respond, "I'm very much looking forward to Bei... Venerable's plan."

The others nodded in agreement, and no one raised any grievances.

In fact, for cultivators, cultivation is their main business. As for turf wars and national development, they can never think for themselves without thinking about it.

Take the people in this conference hall as an example, the two representatives of Liangzhou are not counted, and two of the remaining four giants are sent representatives.

This shows that cultivation is more important than the state society.

It is only Yin Jianghong, who has never changed his original intentions and is dedicated to the people, the leader of the demon sect will give up the time to practice to think about the country and the people.

As for Ji Qinglin...

Although Jiang Beiran didn't know him very well, from the conversations he had with Yin Jianghong several times, he obviously also had the determination to change the country. It was only because the path he chose was different from that of Yin Jianghong that he went to Lanzhou to establish himself.

But even if these two masters and apprentices care about the common people, for them, cultivation is just as important.

Therefore, for people like Jiang Beiran who can help them fully share the management of the country, these suzerains and hierarchs are very happy to see them.

Seeing that no one raised any objection, Jiang Beiran said: "Then let's end today's meeting, Hongfei, you stay." After speaking, Jiang Beiran bowed to the other leaders: "The other leaders We will have an appointment later.”

Everyone couldn't help but glanced at Huo Hongfei first.

Since the last time he attacked Liangguo, this Huo Hongfei's ability to make secret arrangements surprised several of them. Later, he seized the 136 members of the Tan family by means of thunder, and showed several leaders of Ling Chengguo. They are all surprised by the profound cultivation.

Even in the later annexation of Liang Guo's territory, Huo Hongfei played a much higher role than Yan Siyuan, a local tycoon.

Many areas that were originally intended to be completely resisted, when they saw Huo Hongfei coming, they immediately opened the city and surrendered.

It can be said that a lot of senseless killings have been reduced.

For such a strong man with both means and strength, even several Xuanzongs of Shengguo had to say "powerful", and even secretly feared him.

After all, with his influence in the Liang Kingdom, if one day he suddenly raises his arms, I am afraid that he will be able to pull up a very large-scale new force in an instant.

But I never imagined that such a heroic character as Huo Hongfei would be Jiang Beiran's subordinate.

It was this kind of unexpectedness that made them speechless for a long time before they were stunned.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Qinglin took a deep look at Jiang Beiran and said, "I'm waiting for you to give me more surprises, let's go first."

After speaking, he left the meeting room without looking back.

Tai Yingzong handed over to Jiang Beiran, then turned and left gracefully.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Yin Jianghong breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Jiang Beiran and said, "Actually, since you told me about your background, I thought there would be such a day, but I do I didn’t expect this day to come back so quickly, let’s call you Beiran one last time, I’m very happy to have a period of cooperation with you.”

Bowing to Yin Jianghong, Jiang Beiran said earnestly, "The younger generation has also learned a lot from Master Yin, and I believe it can still be done in the future."

"Hahaha." Yin Jianghong laughed three times and then bowed to Jiang Beiran: "Then I'll leave first, Your Honor."

Seeing Yin Jianghong, who left heroically, Jiang Beiran was also quite emotional.

From the battle of wits and courage when facing his superior at the beginning, to mutual admiration and cooperation after the showdown, and now he has become his "direct boss".

Along the way, how can people not feel that things are right and wrong.

After sighing for a while, Jiang Beiran found that Yan Siyuan was standing not far away looking at him.

With a slight smile, Jiang Beiran bowed to him and said, "Sect Master Yan's vote was right just now.

Very important to me, thank you. "

"Your Excellency is very polite." Yan Siyuan bowed towards Jiang Beiran after saying that, "His Excellency has saved my life, so why bother with such trivial matters."

Yan Siyuan's words express two meanings. One is that he already knows that Jiang Beiran is the expert his apprentice said, and the other is that he knows why he survived.

"Then I hope Sect Master Yan can support me like today."

"must."

After Yan Siyuan finished speaking, he bowed to Jiang Beiran, "I stayed here only to thank the venerable one face to face. Now that my wish has been fulfilled, I will go back first. In the future, if the venerable one has a place for me, the old man will do his best. , farewell."

"Walk slowly."

'It really looks like an old fox. ' Jiang Beiran gave an evaluation in his heart.

But it's not a big problem. It was the system's decision to keep Yan Siyuan back in the first place, which means that no matter how cunning he is, he won't be able to slip on his head.

After Yan Siyuan left, there were only three people left in the council room, and Jiang Beiran turned his attention to Meng Sipei.

Seeing Meng Sipei lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time, Jiang Beiran said solemnly.

"I should have just told Huo Hongfei to stay. Did Master Meng hear something wrong?"

"No!" Meng Sipei waved his hand, "I... I just have something to ask your esteemed lord."

"ask."

"That day...that day..."

"it's me."

When Meng Sipei was hesitant to ask her out, Jiang Beiran gave her an answer directly.

After all, there is nothing to hide, it must have been recognized anyway.

And Meng Sipei was a little excited after hearing Jiang Beiran's affirmative answer, and bowed directly to Jiang Beiran: "Thank you Venerable for helping me that day, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stand here."

"You're welcome, is there anything else?"

The conversation between the two made Huo Hongfei a little strange, because it was not like the conversation between the leader and his subordinates, but more like it seemed that Sect Master Meng was face-to-face with Big Brother Jiang for the first time.

But Huo Hongfei didn't think about it deeply. After all, in his eyes, the image of Big Brother Jiang was so high that he couldn't guess it at all.

On the other side, Meng Sipei, who was asked a question, didn't know where to put his nervous hands.

It stands to reason that she has already thanked the masters for their life-saving grace. Naturally, it is her wish, but her heart is still throbbing, and she has an indescribable feeling.

The next second, the face of the masked senior flashed through her mind.

'you! Don't get me wrong! I'm just a little confused, after all, it's so sudden, I definitely didn't mean that, really! ’

Seeing Meng Sipei's empty face, Jiang Beiran said, "Since it's all right, let's step back."

Meng Sipei, who was already in a chaotic state, knew that he couldn't say anything if he stayed any longer, so he left the meeting room after answering "yes".

Closing the door, Meng Sipei let out a long sigh of relief, annoyed at why he was so useless.

Just thinking about whether to wait here for a while, Meng Sipei suddenly found a dark girl standing by the door.

When Xia Lingdang saw Meng Sipei's gaze towards her, she hurriedly saluted, "Hello."

Feeling that the girl was not like a palace maid, Meng Sipei asked, "Who brought you here?"

"My master brought me here."

"Master?" Meng Sipei glanced at the closed door of the conference hall, thinking that there were only two people inside.

‘Could it be…’

Meng Sipei just wanted to ask if the girl's owner was Jiang Beiran, but when she got to her mouth, she said, "What kind of person is your owner?"

Xia Lingdang hesitated for a moment, but still replied: "The host is a very nice, very nice person."

Meng Sipei laughed when she heard it. For some reason, she was also very happy when she heard that the girl praised the master as a very good, very good person.

"Can you tell me how you met?"

"Um……"

Seeing Xia Lingdang's hesitant appearance, Meng Sipei squatted down and put her index finger on her mouth and whispered, "Just tell me if it's okay or not, I promise not to say it."

"Then... that's fine." Nodding, Xia Lingdang began to describe the plague that swept her village.

...

In the conference hall, after everyone left, Huo Hongfei knelt down on one knee in front of Jiang Beiran and said, "Lord, what are your orders?"

"Get up, don't kneel."

"Yes!" Huo Hongfei agreed and stood up.

"How's the handover in Liangzhou going?"

"If you return to the Lord, except for some diehards, Liangzhou has generally been merged into Shengguo."

"The bigots? You mean the ones you can't handle either?"

"Yes! The subordinates are incompetent, those diehards are used to being free and loose, and would rather die than be controlled by others, so..."

"It doesn't matter." Jiang Beiran waved his hand, "It is troublesome for such a person to come, and it will be dealt with later."

"Yes!"

"So now in Liangzhou, there is nothing that you must do, right?"

"Yes, all the forces that my subordinates can persuade have surrendered to Shengguo."

"Alright then, help me do something."

"Please command the Lord!"

"I'm looking for a treasure called Emperor Gu. Someone once found clues about it in Zengguo's black market. I need you to run for me and find all the clues related to Emperor Gu."

From Lin Shiyun's delay in bringing further news of Emperor Gu, Jiang Beiran did not intend to continue to sit on Diaoyutai and wait for the news leisurely. It's a pity that some of his younger brothers are not ready to go to Zeng Guo to investigate. Ability.

The only ones who are capable are the local residents of Zeng.

But the residents didn't seem to have any talent in the investigation, because there is still no further news of the emperor's Gu.

This made Jiang Beiran a little bit painful.

Zeng Guo's national strength ranks first among the six countries in the Central Plains, which is already outrageously strong, and the black market must be even more mixed.

In this kind of place, Jiang Beiran knew with his feet that he would definitely jump around with system options as soon as he went, and it was impossible to investigate with peace of mind.

Now that Huo Hongfei has entered the Xuanzong realm, although this realm is nothing in the Six Kingdoms, at least he has a certain ability to protect himself.

Moreover, Huo Hongfei looked like a very capable person. If the local people, the residents, would help him, the probability of finding the Emperor Gu would definitely be greatly improved.

"Yes! This subordinate takes orders."

Although Huo Hongfei had never heard of Emperor Gu, he had never been to Zeng Kingdom.

But he knew that his life now belonged to the Lord, so for the sake of the Lord, no matter how difficult it was, he would not frown.

"Well, then hurry up and do it. If you encounter any trouble, let me know with Zhiyuan."

"Yes!" Huo Hongfei bowed to Jiang Beiran.

Nodding, Jiang Beiran said, "Go back."

But Huo Hongfei didn't turn around and leave after hearing this, but kept the gesture of bending over and handing over and said, "My lord, this subordinate has an unkind request."

"Say."

"Thanks to your help, my Huo family can finally see the light again. My subordinates hope that you can come to the house to have a light meal and express your gratitude to you."

[Option 1: Decline the invitation. Completion reward: Purple Heaven Holy Tome (Lower Earth Grade)]

[Option 2: Accept it readily. Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]

'Um? ’

The moment he saw the options, Jiang Beiran knew that this meal was not easy, and something had to happen anyway.

After choosing the second, Jiang Beiran nodded and said, "Since Hongfei warmly invited me, I have no reason to refuse."

[Optional task completed, reward: Insight +1]

"Thank you Lord for your honor, then let's go now, just in time for lunch."

"Okay, lead the way."

While talking, the two pushed open the door and walked out of the conference room, and met Meng Sipei who was wiping tears.

'This silly girl...what's the matter? ’
