Chapter 169: Advance and Retreat
"That's how you promised him?"
"What else?"
"Do you still want to be a demon king?" said the squirrel military doctor indignantly, "That's right, with a mine for us, we really don't lack much money." It is more than enough to raise a few thousand people in one mine. But don't you forget, isn't it just to keep our military power and not want to be hollowed out? If you give him more money, you will be just a monster with only money at most, and you can be a demon king?"
The monkey silently handed over a glass of water.
The panting squirrel military doctor took it, drank it all, opened his mouth slightly, panted heavily, and wanted to continue, but found that it seemed meaningless to say anything, so he threw up his sleeves and simply sat on the chair next to him. Stop talking.
The other people around, such as hoarfrost, big red, fat intestines, bull heads, etc., reacted far less than the squirrel medic. Just looked at each other, and finally a pair of eyes fell on the monkey.
The small hall was so quiet that there was not a single sound. The monkey was uncomfortable.
"Let's talk about it, say whatever you want. ”
Still no one spoke, which made the monkey even more embarrassed.
After a while, Qijiao coughed dryly twice and said, "Don't say it, then I'll talk about it." Thank you, monkey. Without you, I, and my people, I don't know how many times I've died. It's because of us that we got into trouble in the Lion Camel Country, and it's still us who the prime minister threatens you here. ”
As he spoke, he turned to the others and said, "If there is something wrong with this, then it is our fault. Monkeys are right. ”
"We didn't say Brother Monkey was wrong. Da Hong said cautiously: "Actually, I think it's pretty good." How can a demon king be so good? If you are not careful, you will be crushed. Now not only do you not have to be evicted, you don't have to be displaced like before, but there is also a mine. If you want me to say, I didn't want Brother Monkey to be a demon king, but now I am a rich idler, isn't it?"
"Yes, yes, yes. The fat intestine hurriedly echoed and said, "If you have food to eat, you don't have to fight, isn't this better than being a demon king?"
"Oh, I've been doing it for a long time, and I'm the only one who wants him to be the demon king?" The squirrel military doctor suddenly became angry, pointed to the fat intestine and said: "You useless thing, you know how to eat and drink every day, in addition to eating, what else do you know about you?"
After saying that, he turned his head and pointed at Dahong: "And you! I know how to count money every day, what's the use?
Turning his head, he pointed to the bull's head again: "You ......"
"Alright!" the unspoken words were cut off by the monkey, who said lazily, "If you don't want to, go back to the lion camel country as soon as possible." Our temple is too small to afford you. ”
After saying that, the monkey grabbed a handful of hair from his head, got up and turned his head to leave. Leaving a group of monsters sitting in the hall, one by one, at a loss.
The next day, word spread.
The silver division's secretary and the multi-eyed junior sister Jing Xi proposed in the Ten Thousand Demon Hall to allocate a mine to the new army, and all the elders present couldn't help but be taken aback. However, it is only a surprise. None of them objected.
It is clear that the entire civil service system has passed the gas. This is the meaning of multi-eyed monsters. Since this is the case, and it is not their own money, the elders will naturally turn a blind eye, and there is no need to follow the multi-eyed monsters who are in the limelight in such a trivial matter.
After all, didn't the tragedy of the deer clan happen not long ago?
Covered with the seal of the Council of Elders of the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, the news was quickly reported to the entire demon country.
The allocation of mines is actually not uncommon in the tens of thousands of years of history of the demon country. Most of the demon kings hold a large number of mines in their hands, which is another source of military spending in addition to the allocation of funds from the demon capital. Even the Macaque King, the least powerful of the demon kings, has six mines.
However, the general way to allocate should be proposed by the demon king, and then quarrel with the multi-eyed monster in the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, and then compromise with each other through the exchange of interests, and finally get it. The bank took the initiative to make the allocation, which is absolutely unique in the history of the demon country.
As soon as the news came out, the whole demon was boiling. In the eyes of the vast majority of people, this is basically a matter of cultivating a new army at any cost.
Of course, the same news, in the eyes of a group of people, especially those who know the inside story, is a completely different taste.
Looking at the briefing in his hand, the macaque king smiled helplessly and shook his head.
The young man in white on the side asked in a loud voice, "What is the master laughing at?"
"As soon as the Prime Minister made a move, he allocated a mine to the new army. Even if you support the new army, isn't it better to hold the mine in your own hands than in the hands of the stone monkeys...... This shows that there must be some new agreement between the stone monkey and the multi-eyed prime minister. ”
"New agreement?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be that the stone monkey has completely handed over the military power and went to guard the mine. As he spoke, the Macaque King casually threw the briefing in his hand onto the table beside him.
"This ...... In this way, wouldn't the stone monkey be useless?"
This is probably an ending that even the Macaque King, who is well versed in multi-eyed monster methods, can't think of.
If this is really just the result, then the macaque king's previous bets on the monkey will all be wasted. Not only that, but it's not even as good as not touching monkeys in the first place. After all, a fledgling stone monkey is much easier to deal with than a prime minister who holds the civil official system. Now that the stone monkey has been sent away, in the face of the multi-eyed monster, it can be said that it is really a big loss.
But......
The Macaque King smiled faintly and said, "Sooner or later, the multi-eyed prime minister will have to find a way to bring him back from the mine." No loss. ”
"Then, the equipment promised to the Forces nouvelles ......"
"Shine it. ”
"No. ”
In this way, after a few more days, the monkey did not send anyone to the quartermaster to get the equipment, but the macaque king sent someone to send the promised three thousand sets of armor, plus all kinds of weapons, to the camp without any mistake.
Stretching out his hand to take the list handed over by the young man in white, the monkey asked casually, "Your master, have you explained anything?"
"The master asked me to convey to the general, and he will wait for the general's return. ”
Looking at the armor and weapons piled up in front of him, the monkey's brows were frowned.
"I don't even know if I'll be able to come back, but he's confident. The monkey couldn't help but sigh.
"That's nature. The young man in white replied with a smile: "The master said, when the general returns, everything will be as usual." ”
"What if I can't come back?"
"Then it should be a parting gift for the general. The young man in white bowed and arched his hand.
Looking at the serious appearance of the young man in white, the monkey couldn't help but feel helpless, so he had to say, "Okay, thank him for me." ”
"No. ”
