Of course, Ma Mingyuan knew how to choose, he had been Yuan Shikai's personal guard, if Yuan Shikai disposed of Lao Yuan, he would probably let him go. Favoritism can be big or small, if it is a big thing, Lao Yuan may sacrifice him for the sake of his own image.

The crowd in the school was excited, and if he was tried on the spot, he would not be able to escape if the human and material evidence was complete. If he is allowed to go back to Lao Yuan and vaguely pass this matter, he can no longer stay in Baoding Military Academy but save his life.

Ma Mingyuan didn't know why Chen Hao asked this, he said vaguely: "What do you mean?" ”

Chen Hao said lightly: "You are working under the command of the palace guard, and it is inconvenient for me to punish you, if you admit that you are derelict in your duties and honestly admit how much money you have received, I can let you take the money and leave." If you don't admit it, then I'll call the witnesses over, confirm your guilt, and deal with it according to the regulations of the academy after confirming your guilt. ”

Ma Mingyuan showed a look of gratitude on his face, and hurriedly said: "I received 300 oceans of the Inhuman Xuanyuan Sword, this matter is my mistake, I will go to Lord Gongbao to confess." ”

Chen Hao breathed a sigh of relief, Xuanyuan Jian's testimony was concocted by him, and now that Xuanyuan Jian has "committed suicide in fear of crime", if he goes to prove it, he will definitely be questioned, and his reputation will also decline. Ma Mingyuan took the initiative to admit his guilt and admitted that he had accepted a bribe from Xuanyuan Jian, and Xuanyuan Jian's death would not matter.

This is cheaper for Ma Mingyuan, but it is Chen Hao's best choice, not only to avoid the death of Ma Mingyuan, but also to satisfy Yuan Shikai. Because Ma Mingyuan once served as Yuan Shikai's Goshha, even if he could make Ma Mingyuan confess his guilt in court, he was likely to offend Lao Yuan.

After Ma Mingyuan pleaded guilty, he quickly searched 500 oceans from his bedroom, and he said that 200 oceans were his savings. Chen Hao knew very well in his heart that 300 oceans was Xuanyuan Sword's bribe to Ma Mingyuan, and the other 200 oceans must be Sanshengshi's bribes, but he didn't say anything.

After Ma Mingyuan left the Baoding Military Academy, Chen Hao received a system prompt: "Player Chen Baxian, congratulations on completing the triggering task 'self-proof innocence', your authority in Baoding Military Academy has been increased, and you can recruit less than 10 additional cadets." ”

"Player Chen Baxian, because you know how to make trade-offs, you didn't kill Ma Mingyuan, you made the most correct choice, your scheming talent has been recognized by the system, and you will be rewarded with scheming +1, congratulations on understanding the way of scheming skills."

The trade-off: When faced with a dilemma, the system has a 30% chance to remind you to give up a part of the benefits in order to obtain a greater benefit.

When Chen Hao received the system prompt, he felt that this skill was not very useful, and after thinking about it carefully, he dispelled this idea. There will always be many trade-offs in life, and no one can make the right choice. This time, he also happened to sort out the ideas in it, if he encountered a more complicated situation, he would not be correct every time, after all, he was a human being, not a brain.

The 30% chance is quite high, at least it will save him from making many mistakes, and this skill is not invaluable. In addition to the scheming skills, he is also very satisfied with the rewards obtained for completing the "self-proof innocence" task, and recruits an additional 10 cadets to enroll, so that he can let the core players under his command enter the Baoding Military Academy to study without waste.

Ten henchmen entered the Baoding Military Academy, plus the previous Tang Runzhi and Wu Yu, the number of players studying in the Baoding Military Academy in Yingkou reached twelve. Chen Hao held the position of the principal of the military academy, and with the twelve cadet players as minions, the officers who graduated from the military academy and the other players basically had no thoughts.

After Chen Hao drove away Ma Mingyuan, he handed over the affairs of the military academy to several instructors, and he restored Cheng Zihao's identity. Participating in military academy training every day, and occasionally receiving a study task to do, he suddenly became idle.

It seems that he was destined to be busy by nature, and after more than ten days of such days, Tang Runzhi and Wu Yu found him. Tang Runzhi said with a solemn face: "Boss Chen, Lin Zhi found us today and said that someone was organizing a gathering of players, and it seemed that it was going to be unfavorable to us. ”

Chen Hao, a player who established a base and joined the military academy, all had the impression that this Lin Zhi had built a C-level command center in the northeast, and the base area had developed averagely. This person is extremely sleek and has good friends with most players in the military academy, and Chen Hao does not have a very good impression of him.

Lin Zhi's base is in Liaoyang, not far from Yingkou, and he came to reveal the news that he wanted to sell Chen Hao a favor. He calculated very clearly, he dealt with Yingkou with the other bosses in the military academy, even if he won, he won't get any benefits, if he sells Yingkou's favors, he can get more if Yingkou wins.

Chen Hao thought clearly about the doorway inside, and muttered: "How are those people going to deal with us, Lin Zhi said no?" ”

Tang Runzhi shook his head and said, "He only said that those people might deal with us, and he didn't say how to deal with it, but he said that he wanted to meet with you, the boss." ”

Chen Hao understood in an instant, this Lin Zhi is the master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, and with his eight-sided and exquisite character, he must know a lot of inside stories, but he won't say it easily. If he could get the news, it would be nothing good to promise Lin Zhi, so Chen Hao restored Chen Baxian's original appearance and went to meet Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi was very cautious, he told Tang Runzhi and the others that if Chen Hao met, they would look for him in a cloth village on Baoding Street. Chen Hao didn't go through the gate, and when he came to the wall behind the school, he used the ladder cloud to climb over the wall and go out.

After making sure that no one was following, he tried to pick up the middle of nowhere, and soon came to the street. The cloth village where we met was located on the west side of the street, and its name was Furui Buzhuang, and an NPC shopkeeper in front of the door was doing business. When he was sure that no player was there, Chen Hao walked over and said, "I'm here to find Boss Lin." ”

The NPC shopkeeper's face changed, he ordered the guy to continue doing business, and then led Chen Hao to the backyard of Buzhuang. There was a stone table in the small backyard, with a few side dishes and a jar of wine on the table, and Lin Zhi, who had a round face, was sitting on a stone bench and waiting.

Seeing Chen Hao follow the shopkeeper into the courtyard, Lin Zhi stood up with a smile on his face and said, "It's rare that Boss Chen is willing to appreciate the light, I have prepared wine and food, and I hope Boss Chen will not dislike having a few cups with his brother." ”

Chen Hao smiled slightly and said, "Brother Lin is polite, brother is really cautious!" The meeting is also so well arranged. ”

Lin Zhi said with a wry smile: "Don't hide it, this cloth village was also temporarily ordered by the brothers, just to meet with Boss Chen." ”

Chen Hao said in surprise: "Could it be that Brother Lin Zhi was not tracked around the clock?" ”

Lin Zhi laughed dryly and said, "That's pretty much it!" This time, those who want to deal with Boss Chen are some big shots, brother, I can't afford to offend! My base is in Liaoyang, and I am also a neighbor with Boss Chen, and I can't do anything with them to deal with Boss Chen, so I rushed to find out the news. ”

Chen Hao secretly despised it in his heart, if he just kindly revealed the news and told Tang Runzhi and Wu Yu directly, why bother to meet him? Although Lin Zhi didn't say which people wanted to deal with Chen Hao, there were probably only a few enemies, but the other party had no clue how to do it, so he had to accept this favor.

Chen Hao said gratefully: "Thank you Brother Lin for the news, the two of us are based in close proximity, we can be regarded as neighbors, and we should have more contacts in the future." I don't have anything else, but smokeless gunpowder has produced some, and if Brother Lin can use it in the future, I will supply it openly, and give Brother Lin a nine-percent discount. ”

Lin Zhi smiled and said: "Thank you Boss Chen for your generosity, it's just that I don't have a bullet production machine, so Boss Chen should sell the bullets to me directly at the market price!" In addition, although the brother has built an NPC army of several hundred people, his command ability is very poor, and he lacks a few NPC officers. ”

Chen Hao frowned after Lin Zhi made a request, there are few companies that can mass-produce bullets now, but they will basically not be put on the market, so the market is full of high-priced bullets that enter Huaxia through secret channels. There is no problem for players to buy a small number of bullets, but it is difficult to hoard a large number of bullets, and it is understandable that Lin Zhi wants to buy bullets.

Lin Zhi's base is not large, and the troops are only a few hundred people, the number of bullets he buys will not be too much, and Chen Hao can sell some to him. Chen Hao frowned because of officers, the so-called people can't be good-looking, if he let Lin Zhi recruit officers in the military academy, he would lose a lot if he had a way to attract a large number of NPC officers.

Lin Zhi saw Chen Hao's hesitation, and he hurriedly added: "Boss Chen, don't worry, my base is so big that it can't accommodate too many troops, so I recruit at most 20 officers every year at the Baoding Military Academy." ”

Chen Hao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he only worked in Baoding Military Academy for two years, and there were hundreds of NPC officers who graduated from Baoding Military Academy every year, it was impossible for him to recruit completely, and it was nothing for Lin Zhi to recruit 20.

Chen Hao nodded and said, "If Brother Lin has the ability to recruit with confidence, as long as there are no more than 20, it is nothing." ”

Lin Zhi's wish was fulfilled, he secretly congratulated himself on his choice, and said: "Boss Chen, Xuanyuan Jian contacted the bosses of all parties who built the base area after you canceled his admission qualification, including I was also invited, and he called on everyone to unite to bring down your base area. ”

Chen Hao was not surprised to hear that it was Xuanyuan Jian who led Chen Hao, Xuanyuan Jian was really good at finding opportunities. There are more than forty players who have established a base and entered the military academy to study, none of these people are simple, and Chen Hao's idea of warning these people not to fight NPC officers when he started school will definitely cause them to be dissatisfied.

Therefore, it must be easy for Xuanyuan Sword to contact people from all walks of life to deal with Chen Hao, after all, no one is willing to enter the military academy, and not a single officer can be recruited.

Chen Hao said with some curiosity: "How many people accepted the invitation?" What are they going to do to me? ”

Lin Zhi said with a smile: "None of the forty-four people were missed, and Xuanyuan Jian spoke at that time, so the people involved in the discussion must keep the plan secret and not disclose it to anyone." If someone secretly reveals the news, all the bosses will join forces to make him die without a place to be buried. It's because of this that I have to take down this cloth village, otherwise someone will find out that I am in contact with Boss Chen, and I will be finished in the game. (To be continued.) )
