Chapter 428: People go to tea and cool
It is gratifying that after all, Michelis is mostly an iron-blooded soldier, and the three deputy city guards of Randolph, Aaron, and Eliot do not hesitate to resist the order of the Empire. All of them chose to resist staying. The generals of Chen Lin's main army line have hardly changed, with Chief of Staff Truss, Knight Commander-in-Chief Nock, and Detective Corps Commander Sharad. The defense is super strong, known as the "iron wall" of Xi Fa, the fighter division commander House, the assassin commander Bob, and the great magician Yu Liya .......
Of course, Tsardamiro was indispensable among them. Between the hatred of his comrades-in-arms and the reunion with his fiancΓ©e Yali when he went home safely. Without the slightest hesitation, the balance in his heart tended in favor of the former.
In general, Michelis retains the vast majority of its power. This is exciting news. Only a few high-ranking officials and nobles who were pampered and greedy for life and fear death gave up their responsibilities and abandoned the work that belonged to them to their subordinates, which was despised by the soldiers and the people.
"Lord City Guard, here are the latest statistics of the Ministry of Materials on weapons, armor, war horses, pills, crystal nuclei and other military supplies, please take a look!"
Chen Lin took a thick stack of information, opened it and looked at it casually, the statistics were very detailed and clear. The priorities are clear, and there is no missing place. I couldn't help but praise: "Red, good job, I thought that the completion time of this task would be at least three days, hard work!" β
The person who just handed over the information was a young official named Leodi, who was originally ostracized and depressed, but because of the secret order, he was unexpectedly reused.
Originally, the officials in charge of the Ministry of Materials were basically like parasites, and they knew that they were enjoying themselves all day long, and they were too lazy to die, and they pushed things one to the other. But they are all the sons and daughters of some old nobles, and Chen Lin is not easy to recall. Fortunately, although those guys are not very capable, there are still some capable people under them, and they manage the material department in an orderly manner, so there will be no problems. Chen Lin just turned a blind eye and forgot it, but the capable subordinates in the material department were more unlucky, and they did their own coolies, but the credit was shamelessly taken by the boss.
Although the position in the material department is a fat poor, it is not as valuable as his own life after all. So as soon as the secret order arrived, those parasites slipped faster than rabbits, and they could only find people to be promoted among the officials below the third level. Those capable people finally got the opportunity because of this, and Leo was one of them, and they were really efficient, and they basically calculated the current situation of the redundant materials in one day and submitted them in time.
Leo hurriedly said, "Thank you, Lord Castle Guard, this is the result of the joint efforts of Xia Guan and several other colleagues. β
Admitted by the city guard himself, he was very excited, he had been excluded for so long, and now he finally had a feeling of finding the master and seeing the light of day.
Chen Lin nodded secretly, it seems that he did not choose the wrong person, this newly appointed local official of the Ministry of Military Resources is not only diligent and capable, but also has not forgotten his previous unlucky experience, and shares his achievements with others.
Red seemed to think of something: "By the way, Lord City Guard, I'm afraid it will take two more days to count civilian supplies." Since most of our energy was previously devoted to military supplies, the materials in terms of civilian supplies were not comprehensive enough. β
Chen Lin nodded and said, "It's okay, that can be a little later." β
After a slight hesitation, Red said tentatively: "I wonder why the city guard urgently needs a comprehensive material statistics?" β
Although it suffered a long-term rout, the city's material reserves were sufficient, and the military side rarely bothered. Therefore, when Chen Lin was making a statistical request, Red was very curious, and couldn't help but ask the question in his heart at this moment.
But as soon as the words came out, he felt a little regretful, and secretly scolded himself for talking too much, how could he ask casually about the thoughts of the city guard. Hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, it's my subordinates who talk a lot." β
Chen Lin didn't think it was wrong, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I plan for myself, you just have to do your job." If you can get through this difficult time, I guarantee that you will be able to rise to the top in the future. β
Red was overjoyed when he heard this: "Yes, thank you for the appreciation!" β
ββββββββ
When the last file was processed, Chen Lin yawned and stretched long.
Look up at the sky outside the window. He was surprised to find that it was the middle of the night, and the time was so fast, that it would be dawn in a few hours.
There was silence in the tower. All of my colleagues must have gone.
Straightening up, Chen Lin walked towards the outside of the city tower, planning to go home to take a shower and then sleep well. The mental work of one day and two nights made him feel quite tired, and he had to go around on several important fronts early tomorrow morning.
Lin Ling should still be waiting for himself to go back, non-officials are not allowed to enter the city tower, one is to avoid obstructing official business, and the other is to ensure safety. Chen Lin was able to enforce these two prohibitions by example, so Lin Ling could only wait at home. Thinking of the scene that the elf was looking forward to in the middle of the night, Chen Lin returned to his heart like an arrow. Ignoring the narrowness of the stairs, he swept down with a light body technique.
At that moment, a man suddenly flashed out from the corner of the stairs.
The castle tower is a gathering place for important officials. The guards are extremely tight, and the guard barrier is arranged, so it is difficult for even flies to fly in. Therefore, Chen Lin was not as alert as usual, and after staying up for a day and two nights, his reaction was much sluggish, and he couldn't help but crash straight into it.
"Ouch!"
The other let out a scream. The voice is soft, and it is clearly a woman.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't pay attention......" Chen Lin hurriedly apologized, and reached out to help her up.
I don't know which female official also stayed in the city tower so late.
The woman turned her head, Chen Lin saw her face, and said in a lost voice: "City Lord? β
It was Stasia, and before leaving, she used the little time she had left to do the last thing for Michelis, and relieved her guilt a little. Same as Chen Lin. She also stayed up in the castle tower for a day or two...... Night.
The two sides were silent for a long time, and then Chen Lin spoke first: "City Lord, haven't you left yet?" β
"Oh, I just wanted to come here and have a look." Stasia didn't say that she was working in the city tower, and she didn't dare to look directly at Chen Lin, her head was lowered, playing with the corners of her clothes like a simple girl, and she completely lost the demeanor of the shrewd and powerful female city lord in the past.
The choices of the two sides diverged, and it seemed that the common topic was gone, and after a question and answer, they fell into silence again, and just walked slowly side by side, casting two long shadows on the ground.
As he approached Limbo Xiaozhu, the person who broke the ice this time was Stasia: "Lord Dennis, what are your plans?" β
Chen Lin crossed his shoulders and said, "What can you do?" It's not a step-by-step approach. β
"Oh, is that so? Well, I've got to go back, see you tomorrow. Stasia said goodbye to Chen Lin as usual, and then she suddenly remembered that she would probably not be able to see Chen Lin again tomorrow, or even never have the chance to see him again.
