Chapter 1390 Tigers Walk Alone, While Cattle and Sheep Travel in Herds (Part 2)
After resting for two days in Wei County, the army continued to return to the capital. Lin Mu followed most of them quietly.
Originally, he wanted to see what happened in Long Ting through his teacher Xun Shuang in Luoyang, but the teacher did not report any situation, which meant that the situation was not too bad. He followed Huangfu Song back to the capital with peace of mind.
On the third day, Lin Mu received a video call from Beitang Xue.
This time, Lin Mu did not refuse and connected directly. He was also a little curious about Long Ting's call for players.
However, when he opened the communication, Beitang Xue's first sentence made him confused.
"What? What did you say?!!!" Lin Mu jumped up in shock when he heard Beitang Xue's words on the other side.
Beitang Xue brought Lin Mu a shocking news.
"You heard it right. His Majesty Emperor Liu Hong has generously rewarded the extraordinary people, ten prefects and thirty county magistrates!!" Beitang Xue said excitedly with peach blossoms on her face.
How could this happen? ? ?
Liu Hong, how dare you do this? How can this be? !
Lin Mu was really confused. So far, he had never thought that such a horrible result would occur.
You know, these are ten prefects and thirty county magistrates! ! Even in the later Dong Zhuo Rebellion, when many heroes were fighting for hegemony, there were not so many players who became prefects! There were more county magistrates.
This is simply... too ridiculous! !
The nobles of Long Ting did not stop Liu Hong? ?
Lin Mu couldn't think of what happened in Long Ting at all.
"Huh!!! You guys, you really encountered a good thing!" Lin Mu could only sigh.
You know, he used the merits of killing Bo Cai and others, and what he wanted was just the prefect! Now those player lords who were just playing soy sauce have the opportunity to get it, which simply broke Lin Mu's heart!
"Okay! Lord Lin Mu, when you come back, maybe you will be even more valuable! Let's not talk about other things first. Come on, lend me 10,000 [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cakes! Come on!"
"Oh my god, those [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cakes we looted in Jizhou before are so important. You must know their importance, so you want them all, right!" Beitang Xue was excited.
"Why do you want [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cakes?" Lin Mu's mouth twitched.
Indeed, he knew the function of [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cakes, so when dividing the spoils, he chose them as the first choice. Beitang Xue and Ji Beiqin didn't know their function, and because Lin Mu strongly requested, they didn't fight.
"Prefect! I want to change the position of prefect!!!" Beitang Xue widened her beautiful eyes and said ecstatically.
"What? You want to change the prefect? You can change it too? 10,000 [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cakes for the prefect, impossible?!" Lin Mu was shocked.
Is there such a good thing? If that were the case, then with his reserves, Huang Zhong and Yu Jin would have been given a prefecture governor position!
Moreover, with Beitang Xue's half-baked military exploits, he did not meet the conditions for promotion to prefecture governor. Even the county magistrate would have been difficult!
Now, it can be exchanged... I'll go...
"Let's not talk about it first. I'm going to take 10,000 [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cakes to Zhao Zhong. There are ten choices for the prefecture governor position. If you go early, you will have a good choice!!" Beitang Xue said excitedly.
"Send someone to the teleportation array in Dongye County and wait. I'll arrange someone to take it over." Knowing that Beitang Xue was anxious, Lin Mu did not ask again, but began to make arrangements.
Later, Lin Mu received another communication from Ji Beiqin, also borrowing 10,000 [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cakes! Or to buy a prefecture governor! !
Really a prefecture governor delivery? ! ! !
Lin Mu was really confused at this moment. When did the prefecture governor become so worthless? You know, even if Liu Hong and Liu Bian were without Dong Zhuo in power, the governor at that time was still very valuable.
Lin Mu did not say that a [Red Dragon Chapter] gold cake was worth about 10,000 gold coins, but he still lent it to the two of them directly.
"Ding Ding!" After hanging up the communication with Ji Beiqin, Lin Mu received another communication request, from Jiang Chenglong.
Good guy, a crowd!!!
"Lord Lin Mu, I heard that you have a [Red Dragon Chapter] here, I need it urgently!!! Lend me 6,000!!" Unlike Beitangxue and Ji Beiqin, Jiang Chenglong only lent 6,000!
"Do you know how much a [Red Dragon Chapter] is worth?" Lin Mu did not lend it directly without saying anything like Ji Beiqin and Beitangxue. After all, it was a pleasure to cooperate with the two of them.
As for the others... hehe...
"How much is it worth?" Jiang Chenglong said with a strange look on his face.
He just heard Ji Beiqin ask Lin Mu for 10,000, and he didn't say how much it was worth!
"10,000 gold coins!" Lin Mu said leisurely.
"What? So expensive?" Jiang Chenglong said in shock.
If converted, it would be 60 million gold coins! ! Hiss! ! Too scary! It turns out that the position of prefect is really expensive!
Few people trade the Red Dragon Chapter. It is basically a reward, or the people in the soft position of the Dragon Court get the prince's luck to exchange at the Temple of Heaven. It is very precious.
There is basically nothing circulating on the market. So there is no specific numerical reference. Lin Mu only set the price based on his experience in his previous life.
"Lord Lin Mu, you won't raise the price?" Jiang Chenglong said bitterly.
"You don't have to worry that I will take the position of Ji Beiqin and Beitang Xue. Now they have gone to exchange."
"No... I just said the price normally." Lin Mu shook his head. In fact, this price is indeed inflated, but it is not much higher. It is understandable that Jiang Chenglong can't accept it all at once.
"How about this, I'll lend you the money first, and then I'll return the same thing, okay? Of course, you can charge some interest or something at that time." Jiang Chenglong had no choice but to change his tactics.
"Oh... you took the initiative to ask for interest! Then I'll be disrespectful!! How about you return me 1,000 more coins at that time..." Lin Mu said with a smile. He still agreed with Jiang Chenglong's proposal. Anyway, the Red Dragon Chapter is a strong thing.
Jiang Chenglong heard this, and the corners of his mouth trembled. Lin Mu is really a rich man... He has everything, but his heart is also black...
Just like that, Jiang Chenglong also borrowed.
After a while, the First Myth and Xuanyuan Changying also came to borrow, the former was 9,000 coins, and the latter was 6,000 coins.
Based on this situation, Lin Mu guessed that military merit played a role in it, so he paid a little less.
After that, Lin Mu thought that there would be other people to borrow, such as Zhao Qiyin, Ye Nantian, and Zhu Xuan.
Who knew that he waited for a long time, but no one came to him.
No need to guess, they must have other channels to obtain the Red Dragon Chapter.
Lin Mu was not disappointed, and hurried on his way in deep thought. I don’t know what consequences this drastic change will bring.
Players, are they going to rise on a large scale? !
“Damn… Others have become prefects… I’m still on my way…” Lin Mu couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed. Because his goal is to be a prefect for the time being, and now even his younger brother is a prefect, can he balance it?
“Tigers walk alone, while cattle and sheep travel in herds!”
“Maybe I will be a governor?!” Lin Mu thought to himself.
Lin Mu opened the live broadcast interface, trying to find some clues, but found that there was no live broadcast interface. It seems that once you enter the palace, you can’t broadcast live!
After that, after waiting for most of the day, there was still no news from Jiang Chenglong, Ji Beiqin and others.
However, on the next morning, when Lin Mu had breakfast in the temporary camp and was about to set off, Ji Beiqin sent a message.
Ji Beiqin sent a long string of text messages. Lin Mu browsed through them and looked a little stunned:
Zhu Xuan——Youzhou Zhuo County Prefect!
Liu Feng——Youzhou Dai County Prefect!
Ji Beiqin——Bingzhou Taiyuan County Prefect!
Beitang Xue——Bingzhou Xihe County Prefect!
Jiang Chenglong——Bingzhou Shanggu County Prefect!
Zhao Qiyin——Bingzhou Yanmen County Prefect!
Xuanyuan Changying——Bingzhou Yunzhong County Prefect!
Ye Nantian——Youzhou Xuantu County Prefect
The First Myth——Bingzhou Shuofang County Prefect!
Sima Qing——Bingzhou Wuyuan County Prefect!
…
Below, there is a list of county magistrates. Lin Mu just quickly skimmed through it and didn't pay attention.
…
Really…Ten Prefects!!!
When Lin Mu saw this information, his pupils shrank suddenly. Although he was prepared, he was still shocked!
Liu Hong, what is he going to do!!
Are we going to let foreigners manage the border counties and resist foreign invasions?
These ten counties are basically border counties. One or two counties in Bingzhou have even been continuously invaded by foreigners. Now asking them to go there is simply... However, several player lords are also courageous and dare to fight!
As Lin Mu received the news, other players in the outside world also received the news. On the Huaxia channel, the whole screen was directly red, congratulating these Huaxia territories for becoming high officials.
A county governor is much more powerful than the real provincial leader. Not only is the area large, but the military and political power are also in control.
Afterwards, Ji Beiqin sent Lin Mu a message:
The places where foreigners serve as governors (prefects, county magistrates) implement the [tax and public opinion inspection system]. A certain amount of taxes must be paid to Longting every quarter, and the public opinion must not be less than 65 points.
In just one message, Lin Mu saw Liu Hong's ambition.
It seems that Liu Hong is not mentally ill, but is playing a big game.
(Make up for what I owed before!)
