He glanced at it, and in addition to unlocking the bloodline, he added a skill. After killing Barlow, his energy is increased by 2% to 14%. Now that all soldiers have been rewarded, their energy has increased by 2%, and the energy indicator has reached 16%, and nothing else has changed.

Lei Ming's heart moved, and the "Book of Destiny" turned into a point of light and drilled into the center of his eyebrows. He leaned back in his chair, his index finger unconsciously tapping on the table, lost in thought.

As the Year of the Gods approaches, it is imminent to improve his strength, but there is no way to do it. The pressure on his heart was getting bigger and bigger, almost making him breathless. The scene that happened just now provided him with a new way of thinking.

Thunder's brain turned, and countless thoughts flashed. After a while, he stopped banging on the table and opened his eyes, with a hint of determination flashing across his face. He sat up straight and shook the doorbell on the table.

In a moment, the sound of footsteps approached, and they stopped outside the room, and after a slight pause, there was a knock on the door. Thunder answered, and Lisa pushed the door open and walked in. "What do you command, sir?"

"Gather the officials of the territory and come to the Viscount's Mansion to discuss the matter. In addition, send someone to bring ten other territories and people over, be quick. Lei Ming's mind was racing, and he continued: "Move all the official affairs that have accumulated during this time, and I will deal with it." ”

Lisa wrote down one by one, as a housekeeper, not only to be able to do things, but also to be extraordinarily smart. She paused for a moment, saw that Lei Ming had no other instructions, and retreated.

Immediately, the door opened, and the maid rushed in with a thick stack of papers, glanced at Thunder secretly, lowered her head and placed the papers on the table.

The muscles at the corners of Lei Ming's mouth twitched, it seemed that Lisa had been prepared for a long time, even if she didn't say it, she would send someone to send it. He glanced at the mountain of papers, frowned, and said, "Is that all?"

A hint of surprise flashed in the maid's eyes, and she looked at each other. The other lords are too busy with official duties, and they wish they hadn't at all. What does thunder mean, is it too little?

They nodded with strange expressions, and when they saw Lei Ming waving their hands, a trace of disappointment flashed across their faces, and they saluted and withdrew.

Lei Ming picked up a document, swept it with ten lines at a glance, his brain turned quickly, and his pen flew like a fly. The documents on the table are decreasing at a visible rate, but on the contrary, the corrected documents on the other side are increasing rapidly.

As the instructions were issued, a trace of transparent energy gathered from all directions, and was collected by the Book of Destiny, and the red energy mark was undetectable, and the speed slowly rose.

Lei Ming subconsciously grabbed it, but he felt empty. Glancing at the energy marker, it increased energy by 1%. He smiled, stretched, and leaned back in his chair.

Bump! Bump!

There was a knock on the door, and there was a thunderous sound, and Lisa pushed the door and walked in, and said softly: "My lord, the territory officials have arrived, do you want to go over immediately?"

"Let's go!" Lei Ming waved his sleeves, got up, and let Lisa tidy up her clothes and walked out of the study.

In the conference hall, the territorial officials gathered in twos and threes, discussing in a low voice, and their faces were extremely complicated. The lord ascended the throne for a year, and the territory has made great progress, which is obvious to all. Compared with his exploits, he is also extremely capable of tossing and making everyone miserable.

They all miss the reign of the old viscount a little, although there is no merit, but it is easy! do something casually, take the gold coins, and do not have to worry about it all day.

"This is the fourth meeting of the year, what do you think the lord will say?"

"Who can guess what the Lord was thinking, but one thing I am sure of is that it is definitely not a good thing. The god of agriculture is above, and hopefully it is not to remove officials from office. The lord is about to be made an earl, and it will be an absolute disaster if he deals with the officials. ”

"Shhh ”

All the officials saluted in a neat line, as if they had been rehearsed countless times in advance. It is true that after learning the news that Lei Ming was about to be made an earl, the officials took the time to get together and start the drill, and now they are quite proficient.

Lei Ming nodded with a smile, sat down in his place, stretched out his hand, and said, "Sit down!"

All the officials returned to their seats, their eyes brushing at Lei Ming, their expressions different.

"There are three things that call you here today. First, the Viscount was made an earl, and the ceremony will be held tomorrow. I think everyone already knows this, so I won't say more. The second is to build roads, and I plan to connect all the villages in the territory. Lei Ming looked at the official in the corner and said with a smile: "Dale, your drawing ability is good, this matter will be handed over to you, as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, sir. Dale was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that after many days, Lei Ming still remembered him, and hurriedly got up to respond.

Lei Ming nodded with satisfaction and said: "This time, the method of cash-for-work is adopted, and the recruited leaders not only provide three meals a day, but also increase their wages by a hundred times. ”

The faces of the officials present changed drastically, and one of them couldn't help but stand up and said worriedly: "My lord, I am afraid that you will cause criticism and dissatisfaction among the nobles by doing this. ”

Lei Ming's gaze swept over everyone, looking at their anxious and worried expressions, and sighed secretly. That's why he used this method to beat the corner, he didn't have enough strength, and if he rashly challenged the rules, he would only be torn to shreds.

He took a deep breath and clenched his fists, his heart surging with the spirit that one day he would be the one who made the rules.

Lei Ming straightened his expression and said lightly: "I know what everyone is worried about, remember, this is a gift from the Viscount, and it has not broken the rules." ”

All the officials breathed a sigh of relief, and although they were still a little worried, their faces looked much better.

Thunder's index finger rhythmically tapped on the table, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. "In the end, your merits are in the eyes of the Viscount and in his heart. So, the third thing, the salaries of all officials in the territory were increased tenfold. ”

The officials present were stunned in their hearts, reacted, and looked overjoyed. Then he seemed to remember something, and his expression became extremely embarrassed. His lips murmured, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Alright, let's do what I say!" Lei Ming waved his sleeves, got up and walked out of the conference room quickly.

"My lord, according to your orders, I have brought the people of other territories and are waiting at the door of the study. Lisa greeted her.

Lei Ming nodded, his steps were like lightning, and he returned to the study. He sat on the chair, looked at the ten people kneeling on the ground in front of him, their clothes shabby, and was cramped, and said with a smile: "Get up!"

"Thank you, merciful lord. Ten sallow-faced, thin-skinned leaders cautiously got up.

"Lisa, give each of you a hundred gold coins. Lei Ming commanded, concentrating on the Book of Destiny.

Lisa clapped her hands, and the maid walked in with bags of gold coins and handed them to the lords. A hint of surprise flashed across their faces, and they hurriedly took it.

For a while, the red energy indicator did not respond. A hint of disappointment flashed in Lei Ming's eyes, and he waved his hand and motioned for everyone to go out. Although it was expected, it was still a little difficult to accept that it actually happened.

The Book of Destiny shook slightly, and a message flowed into my mind. "The Book of Destiny is not of sufficient level to absorb the energy that changes the fate of the people except for the master's territory. ”
