Chapter Eighty-Four: Carrots and Sticks
". β
Lu Fusheng didn't want to really kill Qi Bing, no matter how arrogant this person was, he was also a soldier who had really contributed to Anyang State, and it was enough to abolish his future, and it was too much to kill him. Besides, if you let him go, there will be no waves in the future.
This time, Qi Bing didn't say anything ruthless, because he was really afraid. Life and death are only a split moment of decision, in the dignified death and faceless life, Qi Bing chooses to live.
After all, he still has old parents who have no support, there are newborn children to raise under his knees, and his ideals have not been realized, and his eyes have not been able to see the reappearance of Anyang's prosperous era, how can he die so easily. Even if you die, you have to die on the battlefield, that is the most glorious moment of a soldier.
It was just a short battle, and Qi Bing was in a mess. The hat has long been unknown when it fell out, and the top of the slightly bald head can only be completely exposed. The flying fish suit, which was still shiny just now, was also hanging on his body at the moment.
Like a lost dog, he limped out of the compound of the yamen guarding the flank.
On the surface, it seems that Lu Fusheng is just a low-level cultivator of the Imperial Spirit Realm, but the means of fighting are indeed very strange, from the beginning of the battle to the present, the uniformity of the Qi soldiers, except for the toughness of the physical body, did not cast any spiritual tricks, and subdued the masters of the Dao Realm. In the eyes of this group of flankers, Lu Fusheng's combat power is really bottomless.
Lu Fusheng turned to the group of guards who had just gotten up and shouted, "My name is Lu Fusheng, and I am your new guard. From today onwards, it doesn't matter if you remember my name or not, or what you call me behind your back. But there is one thing you must remember, although the flanker is just a yamen of Dali Temple, it is a special existence. After today, I will remember the faces of each of you, and no matter what happens to any of you in the future, I will not let go of the thief. So in the future, when you walk in Bo'an City, you have to raise your head for me, and our flankers are the boss in Bo'an City. β
As soon as they heard Lu Fusheng's bold words, this group of flankers had long forgotten about the fact that they had just abolished the deputy guard rate, and followed such a platoon commander, with one soldier and one bear, and they would be a nest of bears. It is a blessing to be able to meet such a domineering chief. They are all soldiers who have come down from the battlefield, and they are naturally unwilling to be restrained when acting in Bo'an City.
Looking at the embarrassed appearance of this group of side guards who did not cover their bodies, Lu Fusheng turned angry and said: "However, if you want others to respect you, you must first show that you are worthy of respect." Looking at your current appearance, soldiers who can't even tie their belts, it's hard to imagine how you can handle knives on the battlefield. β
As he spoke, he walked over in person, stopped in front of a young wingman with an untidy collar, stepped forward to sort out the flying fish suit for him, and looked at the young wingman and asked, "How old is it?"
"Nineteen. β
"Is the grandmother at home okay?"
"This year has been a bumper year, and a lot of grain has been harvested. Life can go on. β
"That's good. Why do you want to be a soldier?"
The young flanker lowered his head, blushing and not knowing how to answer.
Say. β
"A few years ago, there was a natural disaster, and there was no food at home. In order to save food rations for his family, he came to serve as a soldier. There is also a military salary, and the grandmother of the family can still live. β
After tidying up the flying fish suit and patting the young flanker's shoulder, Lu Fusheng said softly: "Good boy." It's not easy to be a baby. Is the military pay enough?"
The young flanker bowed his head again and did not dare to speak.
"To put it bluntly, they are all their own brothers in the future, and there is nothing that cannot be said. β
"In the past few years, the military salary has been more and more nominally, but it is getting less and less, otherwise you can't take the risk and rely on the little cultivation cultivated in the army to throw yourself into the Wei Palace. β
"These bunch of crumbs. Baby, in the flanker, no one will dare to deduct your military salary in the future. β
Lu Fusheng, who is not very old, called the flanker in front of him a baby, but he did not have the slightest sense of disobedience, not that Lu Fusheng was old, but in the aura of both sides, Lu Fusheng was much stronger.
After the other guards standing in the middle of the courtyard listened to the conversation between Lu Fusheng and the young guard, no one would remember some of the favors of the previous deputy guard, and they were all thanking God for having such a person as their guard.
The carrot and stick method is old-fashioned, but it works well.
"My subordinates have no bad seeds, so I will definitely give you an answer in the future for the comrades who died last night. β
LΓΌ Fusheng continued: "Brothers, tonight must be another hard night, now rest as soon as possible, wait for the dusk drum to beat, and act according to the instructions of the King of Wei." β

The royal palace, the imperial study.
Chief Manager Su led Xiao Yangzi, stood behind the king with tea, and waited for the king and the guests to chat.
The visitor is a beautiful woman, and the chief manager of Su has followed the king for so many years, and he has seen a lot of beautiful women in the harem. But I have never seen such a graceful woman, and more importantly, this woman has an unusual temperament, noble, elegant, and tranquil, which seem to be very different temperaments, but they can be perfectly integrated into this woman's body.
When Xiao Yangzi saw it, he also lost his mind, staring directly at the woman, and he didn't even hear the orders of Chief Manager Su.
"Xiao Yangzi, go out to the imperial dining room and fill in some snacks. Little Yangzi, Little Yangzi. β
Chief Manager Su called a few times, but Xiao Yangzi ignored it, and Chief Manager Su suddenly became angry and said lightly: "This little beast, why don't you have ears today? β
slapped Xiao Yangzi's back hard, and when he landed, Xiao Yangzi's back became red and swollen. This is all for the sake of his beloved Xiao Yangzi, and Mr. Su is light in his shots. If it had been someone else, he would have gone to see Hades a long time ago.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry. β
Xiao Yangzi retreated in a panic, and Manager Su saw Xiao Yangzi's flushed face, heavy breathing, and constant gaze. Only then did I realize that it turned out that this kid was in spring. But thinking about it again, empathizing with it, sighing and muttering to himself: "Since you have chosen to enter the palace, you are a person with six pure roots, and it is useless to think about these things that are long in children." β
When the beautiful woman spoke, she listened to it like the song of a lark. As if singing, he said: "Uncle, I heard that you are not in good health, my father has been worried, this time my niece came, and my father specially asked me to bring a few first-grade health pills to replenish your old age." β
"When people get old, their bones can't do well. He also bothered the saints, and he was also frightened. Niece, do you know anyone you know when you come to Bo'an City this time? If not, tell your uncle where you want to play, and I will ask someone to lead the way for you. β
It can be heard from the king's words that there is only one woman on the whole continent who can become a saint and a father, and there is only Li Ningru, who has a soft spot for Lu Fusheng.
"Thank you, uncle, a trip to Anyang is just the first stop on my journey to the mainland as an adult, and in addition to being careful about playing, there are serious things to do. β
"It should be a big deal to be able to bother you, can you have the pleasure of listening to it? β
"Uncle is tormenting the little woman, speaking of which, uncle should have heard of it. As the University Martial Arts Department is about to reopen, I will act as a liaison to visit every country and deliver invitations to every true genius. If your uncle has a candidate in mind, you might as well let me know. β
The annual funding for the university is shared equally among countries, but that is only for the liberal arts in the university. The liberal arts do not cost much, but the rate of return is very large, and it serves as an important exchange point for the exchange of resources between countries. This little money is still affordable in various countries, and it is very refreshing.
However, the martial arts department of the university, which has only been open for one term, is different. The phrase "poor scholars, rich scholars" is not only useful for ordinary civil and martial arts learning, but even more so on the way to cultivation, and the amount of money required for martial arts can be described as astronomical.
If you want to cultivate a truly powerful talent, just the defensive formation enchantment that is opened during the actual combat confrontation is a huge number, not to mention the various spirit gathering arrays built in order to increase the expansion of the aura.
Compared with the liberal arts, the emergence of a high-level cultivator in the martial arts can bring earth-shaking changes to a country. But the investment is too huge, the northern wasteland has never developed the economy among the four major countries, and the money is not enough in the concept of the wasteland people, so it is enough to rob it, how can it be so troublesome.
Most of the people in the southern vowels are Buddhists, as Buddhist disciples, money is the source of all evil, greed and hatred are not related to money, and Buddhist countries are naturally mostly Buddhist people, and they are not much interested in making money, but they are more motivated by the ethereal things like Buddhism and purifying sentient beings.
Therefore, among the four major countries, only the Jitian Kingdom and the Shengluo Kingdom can make money, and the investment funds of the first martial arts department are from the Jitian Kingdom, and naturally in the enrollment of the first martial arts academy, the Jitian students account for as much as half.
And the holding of the second Wuke naturally fell to the head of Shengluo, Li Ningru visited everywhere in addition to submitting invitations, but also to let more friends close to Shengluo country, or forces close to Shengluo country in enemy countries. Occupy more places for students, and minimize students from the other three countries in order to maximize benefits.
"Speaking of recommended characters, I really have one in my heart, and I don't know if the university dares to recruit again?" Wang Shang patted his head and said: "Oh, look at my brain, I shouldn't mention it, I'm old and confused, I shouldn't mention it." β
Li Ningru knew that Wang Shang was digging a pit to make herself jump, but she still took it without hesitation, and there were not a few people who dug a pit for her in front of Li Ningru, but in the end, this pit would become a grave dug for herself. Don't underestimate Li Ningru's methods, born in the emperor's family, even if you look at it, you can see a thing or two, not to mention that the sage also wants to cultivate Li Ningru into the first empress on the continent of the ages.
Li Ningru's face did not change: "What can't you mention? Uncle said bluntly, there is no one in this world who the Holy Luo Kingdom does not dare to say." β
