Chapter 481: Don't ask for the best, just the most expensive
"Brother-in-law......" Perseus cried weakly, he didn't look like an emperor about to be crowned at this time, but a bit of a condemned prisoner.
"Oh, you haven't starved to death yet," Li Feng smiled and sat down cross-legged beside his brother-in-law, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow you will go to the church to be crowned with this ghost?" ”
Perseus was bitter in his mouth, and said depressedly: "The emperors of all dynasties must fast and bathe for at least three days when they ascend the throne, and the ceremony cannot be abolished, otherwise it will be disrespectful to the God of Light, in fact, I am not afraid of offending the God of Light or something, but my sister invited the old chief who presided over the ceremonies in the palace to come back, and with this old man supervising, I can't do it even if I want to disobey it......"
Perseus used to believe in the god of light, but since the collapse of his country, he has become a complete atheist.
Li Feng looked back, and the old man at the door was really staring at the two of them without blinking, as if he was on guard against Li Feng bringing food to Perseus in violation of regulations.
This old man was neatly groomed all over his body, and even almost a single hair and beard were meticulously groomed, worthy of being a professional.
"Haha, you hold on slowly, I'll go first, and I still have something to discuss with your sister," Li Feng said a few words to his brother-in-law, then bounced up from the ground and prepared to leave.
Perseus looked at his brother-in-law with resentment, and was about to open his mouth to say something, but suddenly there was something more in his mouth, and at the same time, his brother-in-law's voice was as thin as a mosquito in his ears: "This is Bigu Dan, you won't be hungry if you swallow it." ”
Perseus was stunned, but he had absolute trust in Li Feng, so he swallowed the pill in his mouth without hesitation. This pill went down his stomach, and suddenly a hot current rose from the dantian, and in an instant, it flowed all over his body, and then Perseus felt tired and hungry all over his body, and all of them suddenly disappeared, and even faintly felt like they were about to fly, which was really magical.
Before Li Feng came here, he had casually refined a furnace of dozens of Bigu Dan, and after taking back the Liferoot Encyclopedia of the Otherworld, he now had all kinds of strange Dan recipes in his hands, which were simply terrifying.
One Bigu Dan can make people not need to eat any food for three months, just drink some water. Of course, if you do intense exercise and consume too much, the action time of Bigu Dan will definitely be shortened accordingly.
If it weren't for the fact that the medicinal materials needed for Bigu Dan were a bit scarce, it would simply be the best military food.
Obtaining this pill recipe, Li Feng is equivalent to another way to make money - presumably Claudius the Great will be very willing to collect medicinal materials and let Li Feng help refine a large number of Bigu Dan.
The total ration of three months for an ordinary soldier is not a small number, and relatively speaking, the cost of using Bigu Dan is actually not much higher, but only several times.
Since ancient times, the most slowing down the speed of the march is the baggage of grain and grass, and the army that does not need to carry any grain and grass can maneuver several times faster on the battlefield. And the speed of maneuver is the key to victory in many cases, and Claudius the Great has been on the battlefield, so he can definitely weigh the pros and cons.
Li Feng strode out of the room, turned around and went to find Avril and the others. In fact, in the past two days, not only Li Feng is a big idler, but Perseus, who fasts and prays, doesn't worry about anything, but Li Feng is too lazy to come out and bubble, but his brother-in-law is helpless, and he can't do anything if he wants to, so he can only starve like a mud tire, waiting for tomorrow's coronation ceremony.
The pavement of the palace is all paved with a precious red carpet, and from time to time there are palace maids wearing flowers and butterflies passing by Li Feng.
"Well, ahem......" Li Feng stood at the door of the imperial study for a long time, but several little beauties didn't look at him, just caring about explaining something to the officials who were in a hurry.
"Ah, Lord Allen, are you here?" Princess Sophie exclaimed. Li Feng coughed for a long time, and finally a chick was willing to take care of him.
"You haven't had dinner yet, have you?" Li Feng frowned, swept around the room, and said unhappily: "Have you been so busy these days?" I'm busy and I have to eat......"
"No, it's just that I'm a little busy today," Princess Sophie lowered her head slightly like an angry little daughter-in-law, and said with a smile: "When everything is arranged, I'll go to dinner right away." ”
Li Feng shook his head with a wry smile, didn't say anything, turned around and walked out, beckoned a maid, gave a few orders, and then returned to the room, clapped his hands, and said, "Okay, stop, well, you guys go out first......"
The women rolled their eyes, they didn't want to stop, but all the officials in the room were silent about Li Feng, and they were pointed at by Li Feng's hand, and immediately obediently withdrew, waiting outside the door, of course, the women could only roll their eyes.
These officials are all natives of the other side of the city, and they all know very well in their hearts that the reason why the other side city can turn over is because their princess Avril joined the Black Wood Cliff and became the lady of the Black Wood Cliff boss. Although it is Perseus the Great who will be crowned tomorrow, everyone knows that the one who really counts in the other side of the city is the seemingly polite and polite master of the Black Wood Cliff in front of him.
"Alan, if you don't help, forget it, why are you still here to make trouble?" Avril was puzzled, but before she could speak, Jessica had already shouted angrily. It seems that the two little beauties do get along well.
"I've already told the kitchen to prepare dinner, no matter how busy you are, don't forget to fill your stomach first," Li Feng pulled the beauties up from their seats one by one and drove them to the kitchen, "Actually, I think the reason why you are so busy is that you are completely busy, there is no need at all, now you go and fill your stomach first, and I will help you get these officials......"
"Don't mess around, big boss," Avril was about to go to the kitchen with the girls, but when she heard Li Feng say this, she suddenly stopped again.
Li Feng hugged Avril's soft and boneless shoulders and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have a measured ......"
Avril smiled bitterly in her heart, if only she could rest assured, the big boss is still very reliable sometimes, but more often than not, he is like a psychopath. And the big boss never seems to have shown his management ability, even the big and small things in the cottage are taken care of by Ferdinand, how can Avril rest assured?
However, Avril still went with the girls, Li Feng patted her chest, and she was just about to make a military order, if she was still grinding here, it would undoubtedly be losing the face of the big boss, although Avril was a little arrogant, of course she would not do this kind of thing.
"Come in," Li Feng had just sent the beauties away, and beckoned the officials into the imperial study.
Although he has never been an emperor, Li Feng has also been a bandit leader for a year, he is still very majestic sitting behind his desk, and his sharp and compelling momentum makes more than a dozen officials dare not take a breath.
"What kind of task are you responsible for?" Li Feng ordered the generals, casually pointed at an official, and asked in a deep voice: "What questions do you need to ask for instructions when you come to the palace?" ”
"I'm in charge of repairing and arranging the road from the palace to the church," Li Feng named a middle-aged official, who was a little submissive and very reserved in front of Li Feng, "I'm here to ask for instructions, the red carpet that paves the road is a little insufficient, can it be replaced by a noble bright yellow carpet?" Or can you pick red petals from the other side and replace the carpet? ”
"Do you want to ask for such a small question?" Li Feng scolded unhappily: "The red carpet is not enough, so hurry up and let people buy it, the teleportation array in the other side city can go straight to the imperial capital of Atlantis, I don't believe it, can't the entire Poseidonia buy enough red carpet?" ”
"Huh?" The official was dumbfounded.
"Ahh Okay, now I'll give you the greatest authority, you just give me the most exaggerated, the most gorgeous, the most luxurious, the most extravagant layout of this road, everything must be used in the best, if the money is not enough, just report it directly, and send someone to buy it when the things are gone. Anyway, I don't care what method you use, I just need to see the results early tomorrow morning, understand? ”
"Understood...... "The official wiped his sweat and nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice.
"Got it, why don't you hurry up and do something?" Li Feng scolded again, which frightened the official all over, saluted, and went out in a gloomy manner.
"What are you?" Li Feng named a second official.
"I'm in charge of procuring and arranging the magic lanterns," the named official hurriedly replied, "I'm here to ask if the magic lanterns on the city wall can be omitted?" Since the coronation was in the morning, and no one would go up to the walls, it seemed unnecessary and too extravagant to put magic lanterns on the walls......"
Li Feng didn't wait for the official to finish speaking, then waved his hand to interrupt, "It's not something you should worry about, your only task is to light up the whole city, how to be extravagant, this kind of trivial matter is not used to ask for instructions in the future, if you don't have money, you can call a report and ask for it, I just need to see the results, understand?" ”
The official nodded repeatedly.
"If you are all such trivial things, you don't have to say it, I give you the greatest authority, you don't have to report everything, I only have one request, you have to be extravagant and extravagant, how to come, no matter what, you must strive to use the best, report the money, our finances are very abundant. Only if you really can't find the best situation, you can allow the use of substitutes," Li Feng's fierce eyes swept over the faces of the officials in the room one by one, and said in a deep voice: "I don't care what methods you use, how many manpower and material resources you spend, and how many gold coins you spend, anyway, I only need one result......"
“…… Don't ask for the best, just ask for the most expensive, just spend money on me," Li Feng pressed the table, leaned forward, and said loudly: "Now, do you all understand your respective tasks?" Who still has questions? ”
"Understood......" all the officials replied in unison with a happy face.
In fact, which official likes to report to the boss about any little things? What's the point of being an official like that is just an echo worm? Regardless of whether there is oil and water to fish, at least it will not be able to use their talents at all.
Waiting for the officials to leave with great ambition, it didn't take long for all the women to return to the imperial study together, they all pretended to have something in their hearts, of course, they were not in the mood to slow down and grind, they were all in a hurry to fill their stomachs, and rushed over.
But when I saw that Li Feng was the only one in the study, he was comfortably crossing Erlang's legs, eating pastries without a match, and the girls immediately looked at each other, not understanding what the situation was.
"What about people?" Avril asked dumbfounded.
"It's all done," Li Feng's mouth was full, and he muttered: "It's all trivial things, and the big boss will send everyone away in a few words." ”
"Huh?" The women were dumbfounded together.
They didn't know that Li Feng hadn't just sent away a group of people in this time, otherwise they would be even more dumbfounded.
"How...... What's going on? Avril stumbled: "Big boss, you won't mess around, right?" ”
"I see that you guys are completely busy these days," Li Feng poured a sip of the fiery red flower tea brewed by the other side flowers, stalked his neck, and smacked his lips: "You actually only need to assign the task and give the officials the greatest authority, and when they encounter something, they will find a way by themselves." Wouldn't it be nice to let them make their own decisions about those trivial things? Why bother to bother yourself, do everything yourself? If they were all like you, wouldn't the emperors all have to get tired? ”
Li Feng explained the method he had just instructed the officials to the women, and finally concluded: "Let's just care about the results, specific things, and let the officials play freely, otherwise why do so many officials do?" ”
"Yes...... But ......" Avril felt something was wrong, but she couldn't say it.
"It's nothing," Li Feng waved his hand and said, "Which emperor doesn't know how to delegate power?" It seems that after Perseus is crowned emperor tomorrow, he will have to learn the way of being a king, damn, who will teach this guy how to be an emperor? ”
In the end, Li Feng scratched his head in some distress.
