Chapter 278: Liu Long's scheming

At this time, footsteps came from behind the two soldiers, and when they looked back, it turned out to be Lord Liu Long, the commander-in-chief of the Flying Tigers. He hurried to his own hand, carrying a handful of "The Legend of Death" in his hand, and the soldiers and guards who followed him did not know where to go.

"Lord Kaiyu, the last assassin has been captured by us. The two saluted Liu Long.

Liu Long picked up the crossbow in his hand and said, "Very good, tie him up and escort him back." ”

"Yes!" the two turned and took the rope and walked towards the assassin. What they didn't expect was that when they turned around, Liu Long, the chief standing behind them, was aiming at the back of their hearts with the "Legend of the Grim Reaper" in his hand. "Puff" twice, the two of them were shot in the heart of a hole, they fell to the ground with round eyes, looking up at the sky, and they didn't understand what was going on until they died.

"Take off their clothes, put them on your body, and come with me. I'll send you out. Liu Long commanded the assassin.

The man couldn't believe what was happening in front of him, and hesitated for a long time before he shivered to take off the corpse's clothes on the ground.

"Hurry up. Liu Long was a little impatient, thought for a while, and then asked: "I don't care who your master is?" Go back and tell him that the Tian brothers are stupid, and I have already discovered that something is wrong with them. You're stupid, you can't kill that kid like that. Go back and ask your master to keep in touch with me, and I'll tell them what to do. ”

The assassin quickly got dressed and followed Liu Long outside. After a long time, he finally couldn't help but ask, "My lord, you, why are you ......?"

Liu Long stopped and turned to look at him, a hint of resentment in his eyes. "During the turmoil in the capital, my own brother fought bloodily in the Praetorian Guard with the Admiral of Sanmen. In the end, he died in the chaos for no apparent reason. Someone has to pay it back. ”

It took ten days for Luo Ming and Xiao Yu's injuries to basically recover. But the doctors in the barracks still didn't agree with them running around, so Luo Ming had to call everyone he wanted to see to Wulang Mountain to meet him.

The first to come was Zhao Hui, the deputy of the Sanmen Admiral, who was responsible for summoning and using all kinds of craftsmen in the Yelang Palace.

Luo Ming explained to him: "You pick out a relatively secluded place in the Yelang Palace, about five acres or so, and divide it with a wall, leaving only one door." The wall must be at least ten meters high, which is three zhang. Then you look for the best craftsmen, not too many people, but be sure to find reliable ones with strict mouths. I'm going to dig underground there, and in a few days you'll come to me and get the blueprints. ”

"Yes, Your Highness. "Zhao Hui has always talked little, he knows what to ask, and he definitely doesn't ask what he shouldn't ask. Luo Ming appreciates this. The young man named He Ting is also very old-fashioned and serious, and he doesn't talk much, but he is clever and capable.

"How's the salt mining in the Land of Sighs?" asked Luo Ming. Salt is a daily necessity for the common people, and it has naturally become a major source of income for Luo Ming at present.

"According to His Royal Highness's orders, the domestic salt price is stable, and it has been slightly reduced. It's just that the foreign transaction is not very smooth, and the business association is at the back of the box everywhere, and all transactions have to be pumped, and it is difficult for us to increase our profits. ”

Luo Ming sighed in annoyance: "What kind of bird association is this, sooner or later I will have to settle accounts with them." ”

After Zhao Hui went out, the second one to come in was Liu Long.

Luo Ming was very satisfied with his work, so he was more polite and respectful to him. "How is it, Lord Liu, what are the results of the investigation?"

Liu Long replied respectfully, "Of the ten assassins, except for the one who escaped, the remaining nine are already dead. According to the investigation and identification, it was they who were subordinates of Lin Yi, the young master of the Eastern Alliance. They pretended to have come to sign up for the army and sneaked into the valley behind, and we will strengthen the protection measures for the valley in the future. In addition, we should appropriately strengthen the management of those who come to sign up as recruits. Be strict with them. ”

"Lin Yi?" Luo Ming frowned, thinking: Why does he have such a big conflict with me? Do you have to put me to death? Does the alliance leader know about these things......

The third person to be summoned in was He Ting.

"How many homeless street children do we have now?" Luo Ming asked him.

"A hundred. He Ting replied.

"Still need to look for it. You can go to other cities, villages, and towns to take in those poor children. Be sure to emphasize who saved them and who gave them food and clothing.

It's me, Yelang Wang Luoming. This must be remembered, to go deep into their hearts, because I need their faithfulness. ”

"Understood, Your Highness. ”

"Establish a detailed file for each of them, find a special person, a reliable person, and record all their circumstances in detail for file construction. I'm going to sift through some of them in the future and build a strong spy agency. ”

"Yes, my lord. He Ting was almost expressionless. Although he didn't understand the word "spy agency", he didn't even bother to ask.

"The day after tomorrow, you select a group of people to come to Yelang Mountain to participate in a month-long high-intensity military training. ”

"Yes, Your Highness. ”

"There's another question. I've heard that the Land of Sighs is not far west of the sea. What's that place called?

He glanced at He Ting and explained: "Duoguo is a local dialect, which means very rich. I heard that there is an abundance of seafood there, so you can find a way to investigate the details there, the more detailed the better, and make a memo for me. ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After sending everyone away, Luo Ming leaned on Xiao Yu, who had been sitting silently behind him, let out a long sigh, and said, "I'm already so poor that I jingle the bell." I really can't help it, there are so many places to spend money. Now that I'm in arrears, what should I do?"

Xiao Yu gently massaged his head and said softly: "Don't worry, everything has just started, of course it will be a little more difficult." It will slowly get better in the future. ”

In a blink of an eye, it was time for Luo Ming to be promoted. I don't know if it's because of too many battles recently, this promotion surprised everyone, including himself.

The time for cultivation is not very much, but for some reason the bone soul power is about to overflow, for many people, such a short time interval is really incredible.

This is by no means a good thing for Luo Ming, because the more he shows that he is against the sky, the more difficult and dangerous he will encounter when he is promoted.
