1284 - The Soulless Man

Seeing that everyone's puzzled eyes were gathered towards her, Xiuxiu smiled slightly, turned her head to look at Li Meng, who was sitting on the side and concentrating on eating dumplings, and said, "You might as well ask Sister Li Meng about this." ”

Xiuxiu threw the conversation to Li Meng, Li Meng stopped the chopsticks, swallowed the dumplings in her mouth, smiled too, and replied casually: "Xiuxiu is a little different from you, she has two identities in Nanjing this time, one of them is a candidate who came to participate in the entrance assessment, and the other ......"

"The other? What identity? Everyone asked hurriedly.

Li Meng replied: "Xiuxiu is also one of the new investors of Tianzhufu this year, to put it bluntly, it is our partner ......."

"What?"

As soon as they heard this, everyone was shocked.

Li Meng smiled, and continued: "I know what you are shocked about, you must think, Tianzhu Mansion has stood in the world for more than 600 years, such a big secret organization, still needs investors?" The answer is...... Yes, Tianzhu Mansion has always been headed by subduing demons and subduing demons, and it has always had great internal expenses, although we ourselves also operate some external businesses to make up for expenses, but in recent years, the national policy has become more and more open, and there are more and more Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and even foreign businessmen who come to the mainland to do business, and our business is becoming more and more difficult to do, plus in the past two years, because of the sudden emergence of the Inhuman Sect, the overall expenses of Tianzhu Mansion have been even greater, so Tianzhu Mansion has been in deficit for two consecutive years, and it is impossible to make ends meet......"

Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that the life of Tianzhu Mansion is not easy......"

"Who's to say it's not, but no matter how sad the days are, you have to go on after all, right?"

Li Meng also sighed, and then said: "Therefore, since the beginning of the previous year, the 'household department' in charge of financial issues in the six departments of Zhongshu Province has proposed a solution, through the method of pulling relationships and mutual cooperation, absorbing some external funds for the daily maintenance and support of Tianzhu Mansion, to put it bluntly, it is to find some investment from outside, of course, these investments are not indiscriminate, and only those who know the roots in the exorcism world have the opportunity to invest in......"

Li Meng said and raised her hand to point at Li Xiuxiu, and then said: "For example, Xiuxiu, first of all, her uncle Li Zhanping has always had a good relationship with our Tianzhu Mansion, and her mother Luo Qiuping is the head of the Tianxin faction, and the master Wang is a master of the Ju family, so the composition of Xiuxiu is completely trustworthy to us, so this year we specially sent someone to Nanzhaozhuang to find Xiuxiu, and after explaining the intention, Xiuxiu agreed to invest, and it is currently the largest share of all investors in Tianzhu Mansion......

After listening to Li Meng's words, everyone couldn't help but look at Xiuxiu even more, I said in my heart, it is really good to be rich, no one can compare to ......

At this time, I heard the fourth child 'tsk' twice beside him, and said with a slight sourness: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that even such a powerful organization as Tianzhu Mansion would have to attract foreign investment, if this is known to outsiders, I will look down on you...... Who came up with the idea of attracting foreign investment? He should have been pulled out and beaten......"

"Forehead ......"

Hearing the fourth child's words here, Xiuxiu scratched her head helplessly, as if she didn't know how to answer.

And when he looked at Li Meng again, he had already thrown the chopsticks in his hand on the table, frowned slightly and stared at the fourth child in a daze, and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, I brought it up, reintroduce myself, a staff member of the six departments of the Xia Tianzhu Mansion, serving in the household department of the six departments, and the position is ...... 'household waiter'"

"What?"

Hearing Li Meng's words, everyone was stunned again, but the fourth child asked with a puzzled face, "What wolf?" What's that? ”

Listening to Xiuxiu explain awkwardly on the side: "Fourth brother, the six Zhongshu Province is the main operating agency among the four major institutions of Tianzhu Mansion, which is divided into six departments, and the appointment and dismissal assessment and personnel transfer of the head of the Ministry of Officials; The household department is in charge of operation and maintenance, financial revenue and expenditure; The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the code system and the celebration of activities; The Ministry of War is in charge of military registration and magic weapons to communicate with intelligence; The Criminal Department is in charge of judicial regulations and prison admissions; The Engineering Department is in charge of the building envelope and engineering arrangement. According to the old official titles that continued during the Ming Dynasty, the official position of the head of the six Zhongshu provinces was 'Six Ministries of General Shangshu', who was in charge of the affairs of the six departments, and each of the six departments under his command had a 'squire', who was responsible for the work of each department...... To put it bluntly, Li Meng is the boss of the Central Household Department of the Six Books of the Province, and he specializes in managing money......"

Xiuxiu's words undoubtedly shocked the fourth child, Bai Wei and we all gasped, who would have thought that this little girl in front of her, who looked flat and had a flat chest, would hold such an important position in Tianzhu Mansion......

The fourth child was dumbfounded, and stared at Li Meng in front of him for a long time before swallowing his saliva and said tremblingly: "You, you little girl is really unseemly...... But if you don't do it with such a big official, why do you still come...... Came to meet us? Isn't that a bit of a ...... It's a bit of a condescension......"

Li Meng glanced at the fourth child, and replied angrily: "What can I do, there is a little shortage of manpower this year, plus the financial situation is beyond means, most of the people in our household department are idle and have nothing to do, so they are all supported by the old man to the villa for reception......"

Li Meng seemed to be getting angrier and angrier the more she spoke, stood up as she spoke, and continued: "Okay, I'm full, you can continue to talk, I'm going to go to bed first, remember to clean up the canteen after chatting for a while, Xiuxiu will take you back to your room." Remember to wake up early tomorrow, and tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock is the first assessment to begin......"

Li Meng said and turned around and left, walked to the door of the canteen but stopped, turned around and said to us: "By the way, don't forget, I received you, so during the next time in the villa, I am responsible for your food, clothing and daily life, you can come to the canteen at any time to find me if you encounter any problems...... Also, this villa is no better than other places, don't walk around if you have nothing to do, especially you can't leave the villa, otherwise, if it's serious, you may even lose the qualification to participate in the assessment, understand? ”

Everyone nodded hurriedly, and Li Meng left the cafeteria satisfied.

Seeing Li Meng leaving, the fourth child couldn't help but sigh again: "This little girl is really powerful, I couldn't have imagined that she was a high-ranking official in the Tianzhu Mansion...... Looks like she's not as old as you......"

"This Li Meng does look a little interesting......"

Bai Wei also said in a deep voice on the side: "It stands to reason that the exorcists of each faction themselves will bring some characteristics of their own factions, so that people can tell at a glance which faction she is a master of, but I have observed her for a long time, but I can't see any traces...... It is said that there are many ordinary people recruited from outside the exorcism world in the Six Books of the Middle Book, and she is also one of them, so she doesn't know how to do magic at all? ”

"No, she would, I saw her make a move the evening before yesterday," Xiuxiu glanced at Bai Wei and replied on the side: "The day before yesterday, a candidate who came to the villa to sign up for the assessment was found to be an evil way trying to blend into the eyeliner in the Tianzhu Mansion, and that person tried to escape as soon as he saw that his identity was exposed, Li Meng immediately made a move when he saw this, and subdued the other party in two moves, and his sharp spells were superb, and he was never under you......"

"It's even stranger, who the hell is she?"

Bai Wei muttered, but when she heard that Xiuxiu had spoken again, she shook her head and said, "Little master, what you said is wrong again, she is not a person, because she doesn't ...... at all Not a human ......"

"What?"

Hearing Xiuxiu's words, everyone was shocked again.

Bai Wei hurriedly asked, "You said she wasn't human?" How is this possible? I can't see any clues in her, what's more, this is the territory of Tianzhu Mansion, how can a thing that is not a person come and go freely in this Sihai Lake Villa, and even hold an important position in the Six Books of Chinese Provinces? ”

"I don't know," Xiuxiu shook her head, and continued, "But one thing I can be sure of is that she is definitely not human. Don't forget, now that I have replaced Uncle Zhanping as the yang difference in the Huangjiagouzi area, I can see people's souls with the naked eye, such as all of you here, I can't see it, but I can't see Li Meng's, she ...... There is no soul ......"
