Please Do Not Disturb My Cultivation

Depressed, Lin Wen participated in the negotiation meeting chaired by Yang Jiehua, the chief of the Supreme Office of the Empire.

The meeting place is Hailin City, the capital of Shizhou.

The two sides of the meeting were Zhang Shuangcheng, the acting governor representing Shizhou, and Song Ziyuan, the chief financial officer of the governor's office.

Representing Changshan County are Lin Wen, Qin Luoshuang, Xia Xiaoxiang, and Yun Qingshui.

Of course, this was not Lin Wen's idea. He didn't want to take anyone with him, but Qin Luoshuang automatically ran over and asked to participate, and he had no reason to refuse.

When Qin Luoshuang came, her good Ji friend Xia Xiaoxiang naturally followed.

Forget it, Yun Qingshui heard the news somewhere, so she insisted on coming to participate.

Lin Wen felt very irritable, he was not right now, just like his Nikkei was out of tune.

But reason is still there. Yun Qingshui is the person who established the grassroots regime in the Shizhou occupied area, and will ask the other party to retain the administrative system in the occupied area during the negotiations.

This is all about her, so I agreed.

As soon as they arrived in Hailin City, the representatives of Changshan County immediately caused a lot of criticism. A son brought three beautiful women with different styles to participate in the negotiation of high-level interests in the empire. It was like taking a lover on an outing.

Immediately there were officials present who accused Lin Wen of being disrespectful, disrespectful of the occasion, and contemptuous of the empire.

Lin Wen looked up and saw that he had big buck teeth, a fly-like face with an overturned nose, and black air billowing from the top of his head.

He was still shouting triumphantly: "Look what I am doing? I am also the sheriff now! The sheriff of Shipai County! Although I am a generation, I am on the same level as you!"

While speaking, his nostrils dilated excitedly, and the fly's face was covered with black and shiny pockmarks.

"That old bastard Wang Zhengwu still lives under a county magistrate. I'm so ridiculous. He didn't come today, and he knows he's ashamed to face others. Back then, he taught me every day, talking about benevolence, righteousness, morality, and integrity. I'm sorry! He has high morals, and his reputation is famous. In the end, his disciples climbed on top of him, proving that what he said was rubbish, dog..."

Lin Wen turned around, Qin Luoshuang sighed lightly, and took out a pistol from his arms.

Lin Wen picked up the gun and blew his head off with a backhand shot.

The big buck tooth opened his eyes, and the last word "fart" was still in his throat.

With a plop, his body fell to the ground like garbage, and the people around were terrified, screamed, or turned around and ran away.

Slay demons and eliminate demons, good fate +21.

Lin Wen felt a little better, handed the gun to Qin Luoshuang backhandedly, stepped over his corpse, and walked towards the venue.

Xia Xiaoxiang's eyes lit up, and she whispered into Qin Luoshuang's ear, "You are so handsome, this kid knows how to play cool, you guys cooperate so smoothly, have you practiced it many times?"

Qin Luoshuang blushed slightly, ignored her, and followed Lin Wen's pace into the venue.

Xia Xiaoxiang chased after her and laughed teasingly: "Qin, you are so willing to be a green leaf. This is not like you before."

Qin Luoshuang retorted: "You are so popular, who said that Lin Wen was going to be a dog back then, I think it was you who insisted on being a dog for others."

Xia Xiaoxiang's face is much thicker, and she chuckled softly, "Are you jealous? I'll be your dog tonight, okay? I'll let you dictate..."

Qin Luoshuang said coldly: "Go away, I don't want it."

"Wow, then I won't be a lost dog..."

The two women went in, laughing and joking in low voices, which was in stark contrast to Lin Wen's gloomy appearance.

Yun Qingshui squatted next to the dead body at the back, looked carefully for a while, and asked the guards and officials who rushed over, "Is he called Ren Da? He used to be a disciple of Dadaomen? Later, he obtained his official position by selling the whereabouts of Dadao Wang Zhengwu?"

The official pointed at her and shouted angrily: "You Changshan County don't take people seriously, how can you kill our officials in public? Guards, take her down for me! I will torture her tonight."

A large group of guards rushed up, Yun Qingshui raised his hand three joints, and turned back with a round kick, all the guards fell down.

The official was terrified and was about to turn around and run away when he suddenly saw imperial officials entering the arena. The one walking in the front was Yang Jiehua, the director of the first general office.

The official howled: "Director Yang, Director Yang, that rebel has killed again!"

Yang Jiehua glanced at it, and after asking that the person who died was a [temporary] acting county chief who had no background and had just been promoted through Shizhou emptiness, he turned and left.

His personal guard waited for his master to leave, then turned around and gave him a slap in the face, scolding: "Idiot! Who is Director Yang? You are the one who dares to call you a bum?"

The official was beaten so dizzy that he was kicked violently and fell to the ground. When everyone stepped over him, he cried out loudly.

After a while, another group of people came, and the official saw that there were many acquaintances. They used to come to the governor's mansion as guests, and they always smiled and were polite and friendly.

Must be able to call the shots for him.

The official rushed forward and cried, "My lords, please make the decision for me. The Changshan county chief was extremely rampant. He came up and killed our officials, and left a female bully to beat people."

"oh?"

One of them looked up, his face suddenly glowed with joy, and he hurried up to trot: "Oh, isn't this Yunnvxia? I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

He stretched out his hand, but Yun Qingshui didn't want to touch him, so he took a step back and asked coldly, "Who are you?"

The man didn't mind, and he laughed repeatedly: "My official position is small and humble, and it's not worth mentioning. Yunvxia is a great figure who supports justice and saves the people. Your Shangxi Town accommodates more than 600,000 farmers, allows them to live and work in peace, cultivates fields, and gives them a way to survive. This is a great virtue."

Yun Qingshui has been in the rivers and lakes for so long. Although his leadership ability is not very good, his ability to judge others is very strong. At a glance, he can see that this person is deliberately flattering and insincere, and said coldly: "Thank you for the compliment, I have to go beforehand."

The man hurriedly said: "Nvxia Yun, go slowly, my name is Gou Shi, the deputy director of the Imperial Foreign Affairs Bureau, I will take care of you in the future."

Yun Qingshui didn't bother to pay attention to him, so she turned around and left.

The deputy director, Gou Shi, was still bowing his waist and smiling along with his shy face, looking like a slave.

The official was stunned, and yelled aggrievedly: "Lord Gou, she, she is a thug..."

The moment Gou turned his face away, his face changed, and he shouted: "Shoot this nonsense guy who framed a good person to death on the spot!"

The official was stunned. Before he could speak, an attendant picked up a chair and hit him hard on the back of the head.

He fell to the ground without a sound, bleeding from the back of his head.

The representatives of the major factions in the rear turned a blind eye, talking and laughing with each other, while stepping over his corpse.

Blood slithered out on the ground of the bluestone slab.

——

The negotiations were held in the large conference room of the Shizhou Governor's Mansion.

The two parties to the negotiation were County Governor Lin Wen and Acting Governor Zhang Shuangcheng, and the host was Yang Jiehua, Director of the Supreme General Office.

The participants also included representatives of major forces, who only sat in the back as "participants".

It is said that it is a negotiation, but the bottom line has already been drawn by the Supreme Council, and the two sides discussed only some details.

When Yang Jiehua came up, he talked for a long time, to the effect that the two sides should forget the past, help each other in friendship, make progress hand in hand, and create a better tomorrow together.

Lin Wen almost fell asleep again, but fortunately he is no longer the person who stood like a minion back then. Yang Jiehua saw the tired look on Sheriff Lin's face, and immediately ended the topic.

"Director Zhang."

Yang Jiehua glanced at Zhang Shuangcheng who was sitting silently beside him.

His previous position was the director of the state government office, but now he is only the acting governor. The title "Governor Zhang" is too sensitive and not suitable for use.

"Please make your request."

Zhang Shuangcheng is a middle-aged man full of vicissitudes. Since the civil strife in Shizhou, he has advised Governor Gu many times, but he was ignored.

Now that Governor Gu has fallen from power, as the person who was single-handedly promoted by Governor Gu, he also has complicated feelings.

But now the primary issue is to restore order in Shizhou, we can't let Shizhou continue to be in such a mess, and we'll talk about the rest later.

Zhang Shuangcheng calmed down and said, "Mr. Lin, please return a large number of Shizhou officials who were captured by you. Due to your actions, the shortage of Shizhou officials has reached a quarter, and there are very few senior officials left."

Lin Wendao: "I can give you those who are not guilty, I will kill the black ones, and lock up the half-black ones."

Although I didn't understand what Lin Wen meant, it was obvious that he would be released after the trial.

Zhang Shuangcheng said angrily, "What crime did they commit? When will it be Changshan County's turn to judge?"

Lin Wendao: "They have committed crimes against humanity. The affairs of the world are managed by the people of the world. It is Changshan County's turn to manage them at any time."

Qin Luoshuang yanked at his clothes from behind, and said in a low voice, "Idiot! How can there be such a negotiation? You won't talk about it, let me talk about it."

Xia Xiaoxiang was also frantically tearing at his clothes: "Let's just say yes, I will not refund the money given by those officials."

Seeing that they were pulling vigorously, Yun Qingshui also pulled twice, only to hear a chirp, Lin Wen's clothes were torn into three pieces, exposing his jade back.

Lin Wen was super upset. He originally planned to use this welfare routine for people like the elder sisters of the Zongmen, but he didn't expect a group of mortals to take advantage of it here.

The meeting had to be interrupted.

Afterwards, under the strange or ambiguous eyes of everyone, Lin Wen sat in the back, Qin Luoshuang sat in the front, Xia Xiaoxiang and Yun Qingshui sat on both sides.

But everyone soon discovered that the negotiations were progressing rapidly, and the fairy-like woman in the middle spoke politely, was familiar with the imperial system, and knew the rules of the officialdom.

The goblin-like beauty on the side has a deep understanding of the art of language. Many things can be easily accepted by her just by changing the direction.

Only the reckless woman spoke bluntly, which made people uncomfortable.

She didn't talk much, though, and the negotiations were led by two other women.

Thanks to their efforts, the progress of the negotiation was advanced very quickly, many details were confirmed one by one, and Yang Jiehua was invited to adjudicate any disputes.

Overall, it's pretty fair.

In less than three hours, the two parties had reached an agreement, and Lin Wen had a good night's sleep, recovering 3% of his soul.

Subsequently, Yang Jiehua began to announce the ruling of the Supreme Council, which actually defined the fruits of the winners.

1. All spoils obtained by Changshan County belong to the legal property of Changshan County, and no one shall demand compensation for any reason.

2. The empire recognizes all defectors who switch camps.

3. Two-thirds of Changshan County's troops will be cut.

4. After the war is over, everything will return to the dust, and all hatred will be settled. If there is another riot due to hatred, each will bear the responsibility.

After the words were finished, both Qin Luoshuang and Xia Xiaoxiang smiled, which was simply perfect.

Shizhou officials remained silent, while the surrounding representatives showed envious expressions and applauded one after another.

But two people raised objections.

Lin Wen, the mayor of Changshan County, and Yun Qingshui, the deputy mayor of Shangxi Town.

"What about the retention of the administrative system in the occupied area?" Lin Wen asked with a frown.

"Farmers' rights and interests cannot be guaranteed, and I will not agree." Yun Qingshui said.

Yang Jiehua saw that it had ended satisfactorily, but there was another disturbance in the end, so he hurriedly said, "Mr. Lin, what kind of administrative system?"

A Shizhou official said dissatisfied: "You have taken such a big advantage, and you still want to meddle in our official positions. This is too much."

He simply interpreted Lin Wen's words as that he wanted to designate a few candidates to serve as officials in Shizhou.

"No, I don't designate anyone to be an official." Lin Wen said.

"In fact, no one is an official in the occupied area." Yun Qingshui added.

As soon as Qin Luoshuang heard this, he knew it was going to be bad. As expected, Yang Jiehua frowned and said, "Let Shizhou manage the administration of Shizhou. Let's stop the war. Everyone go back to rest early and enjoy a safe and happy life, wouldn't it be good?"

Yun Qingshui said fiercely: "No, no, we are safe and happy, but the peasants in Shizhou are not. I have finally established a peasant association, and a new order has been established. The little hope that everyone finally had will be destroyed by those silverfish!"

Chief Financial Officer Song Ziyuan said angrily, "How dare you say that our officials are silverfish?"

Yun Qingshui said loudly: "Isn't it?"

Song Ziyuan thought that this woman came here specially to humiliate them, and said angrily: "Director Yang, you see that Changshan County has no sincerity at all, and I think they are just greedy and greedy!"

Yang Jiehua coughed and said, "Mr. Lin, since you don't plan to install officials, why are you so obsessed with retaining the administrative system in the occupied area?"

It's not a question of principle. Lin Wendu replied with a delicate heart: "It is to maintain the stability of the empire and avoid turmoil caused by the handover of the regime. We have already caused great damage to the empire. I can't bear to add chaos to the empire that is trying to protect its people in the good times when the dispute is over."

This was said very well, and the representatives all applauded.

"Sheriff Lin is wise!" "Sheriff Lin is worthy of being a young hero!" shouted one after another.

But Song Ziyuan objected fiercely: "No, I absolutely disagree. Shizhou is in charge of Shizhou's affairs, and I can't even collect taxes for the peasant association she established. If the system can operate on its own, what do we need officials for?"

Zhang Shuangcheng hesitated.

In fact, he was inclined to agree. The officials of Shizhou made Shizhou dilapidated and buried thousands of miles, which made him lose confidence in the management of officials.

Wouldn't it be good if farmers could manage themselves well?

But Song Ziyuan and all other officials in Shizhou strongly opposed it, believing that Changshan County had meddled in their internal affairs.

Zhang Shuangcheng is now only the acting governor, not the real governor, and cannot fully represent their opinions.

The meeting reached an impasse here.

Seeing that the day would not be over, Yang Jiehua had no choice but to announce the end and continue talking tomorrow.

This was followed by the customary high-class dinner.

Negotiations are work, and dinners are private time, used to connect with each other and ease the embarrassment caused by daytime negotiations.

Lin Wen directly refused to participate, and Qin Luoshuang and the other three also declined.

Xia Xiaoxiang was eager to try, but Qin Luoshuang whispered in her ear: "If you go, you will never want to sleep in my bed in the future."

Xia Xiaoxiang immediately refused sternly: "I never go to this kind of place." Many people were quite disappointed.

But they didn't know that Qin Luoshuang was actually protecting them. Xia Xiaoxiang was still the owner of the fish pond and had never been eaten by anyone. She was the one who ate people.

After a while, a lot of jealous guys will be provoked, which is really annoying.

However, after Zhang Shuangcheng, Yang Jiehua and other officials left, all the representatives present blocked the way of Lin Wen and others.

A guy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks came out and bowed deeply to Lin Wen.

"Sheriff Lin, please stay."
