I am the leader of the Demon Cult

Chapter 21

"The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the food and grass are going first. It seems that the general is very prepared for rainy days." Xi Qi sat on the chair and watched Chu buy.

"The general is strategizing, it's the same in any place, it's always good to prepare in advance." Chu Caiban stood below, the atmosphere here made him feel uncomfortable all over, as if he had entered a magic den.

"I appreciate your general's kindness, and when the general arrives, he will definitely attach a gift." Xi Qi nodded, "Everything in the general's mansion needs to be repaired, and you can discuss the purchase with my steward, not here. A place to do business."

"Thank you, Mr. Xi." Chu Caiban cupped his hands and turned to leave.Xi Qi's face became vigilant, and when he came outside to report that Chu Caiban had left, Xi Qi nodded, "Master Liu, all the affairs here will be transferred to other places in the future, and we will leave this place as an empty shell for him."

Hall Master Liu's face turned red, "Yes, Master." Let others come to the door. If this is not their collaborator, there will be no secrets.Since when have they been following them?The corners of Xi Qi's mouth curled up. The reason why the original body did not discuss the big plan with these hall masters was because [-]% of the halls were under the supervision of the government, but he was different. What he wanted was the talents here, not cannon fodder.He Zhengxing really gave him a good step forward.

"Get up, you are such an adult, what does it look like to kneel on the ground." Xi Qi's voice was flat, neither happy nor angry, making people unable to feel his emotions.

"Master, there are two old men with tea baskets on their backs outside the door, who said they were here to deliver tea." A church member came to report, and Hall Master Liu almost jumped up.

"Let them in." Xi Qi knew that these were the masters of the former Prophet's guests, and they had come to surrender. After all, if their "craftsmen" were not hung by the above thread, they would fall into the abyss at any time.Not all tea masters have the skills of tea pickers, and they can climb up with a life-saving rope.

"Master Liu, go and call three of your capable men over here, as well as Lu Guanshi. These people will be our family from now on." Xi Qi nodded his chin, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

After assigning these people what they need to be responsible for, Xi Qi lets them adjust themselves, and the best way to adjust is to do things.These people need a suitable task. Xi Qi thought for a while. Recently, Shuzhou should be quieter, but outside of Shuzhou, they don't need it for the time being.

"You guys, go build the road." Xi Qi looked at the few people whose eyes were about to pop out, with an unfathomable smile on his face, and asked someone to bring a map. Shuzhou is to the west, which is a famous rare medicinal material The place of origin is Qingzhou, but in the book, Qingzhou, an empty dynasty, belongs to a place that no one wants. When Xi Qi saw it, he felt it was a pity. However, the protagonists and their actions are mostly in the Central Plains, and they can't reach far places. Since they can't reach them, then He's about to strike first.

After passing the border of Qingzhou, Xi Qi's smile grew bigger and bigger as he thought about the abundant labor force, resources and gold and silver.Hallmaster Liu and Guanshi Lu looked at the route planned by the leader for them, and secretly called Mom. Hallmaster Liu looked at Guanshi Lu who was dressed in ashes. He fainted from fright just because he told him this, right?

Lu Guanshi secretly wiped his sweat with his back collar. If it can be done, what the leader said, and the personnel around them, Gudong, Lu Guanshi swallowed, listening to the leader's arrangement, nodding constantly.

Xi Qi sketched out the most stable road. Although it was a bit of a detour, it was much better than going over mountains and rivers all the time.Leaving Xiang County, going to Ba County, bypassing Luo County in Qingzhou and crossing the border, that is the area under the jurisdiction of General Annan, and General Annan is obviously one of their own.

"Remember to give the top a piece of the pie, don't just give money." Xi Qi simply wrote down the method of digging mountains that will be used in the future, and he needs to investigate the rest, but the road is not easy. "In the near future, we can send people to investigate and draw a more detailed map. Where the waterways can go, we can sort out the waterways with the consent of the local people. We want stability most and can't take risks."

"Boss, before we came, there was news that the imperial court would send a group of people to build water conservancy projects." One of the tea masters who had been hiding in the tea basket looked at the line drawn by Xi Qi, "Over there, people who are proficient in engineering Quite a few."

"I want the specific number of people and related specialties, you go find them." Xi Qi nodded, "You can arrange the local caravans that often travel, and see if there are any taboos, Chief Liu, you—arrange people first. Evacuate, if you can't let it go, send it out first to investigate." It seems that this person's request is quite timely, so it will come in handy.

"Master, what if General Annan disagrees?" Guanshi Lu looked at Xi Qi, "After all, he was sent by the imperial court."

"Isn't our plan for the country and the people?" Xi Qi blinked, looking at Guanshi Lu with an innocent face. "How many people will be convenient if they can pass through Tianzhu."

Moreover, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and they are the ones who benefit the most.

Makes sense!Hall Master Liu and Guan Shi Lu's eyes widened, completely convinced.

After being bored in the hall for five days, Xi Qi saw in the mirror that he had returned to his original appearance, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "Finally, I don't need to wear a mask anymore."

Standing beside him, Chen Changgeng also heaved a sigh of relief, thankfully he was cured.During this period of time, the leader is really not in a temper.

"Go and ask Wang Xiaosan to melt this for me, and I'll give him the finished ingot." Xi Qi threw the mask away, looked at the map on the desk and the list of goods between the two sides over the years compiled by the road manager. "Do you have any missing medicinal materials? If you have any, make a list for you to keep an eye on."

"Lovely, the leader, my list has been handed over to Lu Guan." Chen Changgeng smiled, looking a little smug, but not too much.He knew that Xi Qi was in a good mood now, so it didn't matter if he said something crazy.

"You're smart." Xi Qi waved Chen Changgeng out, bowed his head and started to work, it's really an inefficient management system, do you want to pull out those obedient elders and people from the mountain?

Xi Qi was thinking and counting, and before he knew it, it was late at night, "Why didn't Wang Xiaosan come back to thank you?"

"Master, he hasn't come back yet, Hall Master Liu has sent someone to look for him." The disciples guarding the door reported.Xi Qi raised his eyebrows, "Let everyone come back, he knows the way." Where can a person who doesn't know martial arts go?Or was it robbed?

"Master, that boy fell asleep at the gate of General Annan's mansion." The one who went to call someone hadn't left, but the one who went looking for someone came back.Xi Qi looked at Wang Xiaosan who had been beaten miserably, and sneered, "What's your situation?"

"Hit, rob, and then throw me at the gate of the general's mansion." Wang Xiaosan's eyes dodged, trembling, as if he was frightened, but Xi Qi felt that it was not that simple.

"Who robbed you, was so kind, and threw you at the gate of the general's mansion, don't you know that they are all soldiers now!?" Xi Qi stared, "Tell me the truth!"

"Lord Luo won't let me speak." Wang Xiaosan knelt down as soon as his legs softened.Xi Qifeng narrowed her eyes slightly, "I'll let you talk."

"I went to the silver shop with the mask, but I was robbed on the way and they knocked me out. Master Luo happened to see me, he, he drove the group of people away, and then told me that he took the mask and returned it I took a piece of silver, and told me to take this to melt, I thought he knew about your arrangement, my lord, I, I was afraid, and then I passed out when I left the general's mansion." Wang Xiaosan said with tears in his eyes, still from his arms He took out the piece of silver.Xi Qi put a pad on it, and the weight was indeed the same as the mask. Looking at the smooth and white incision, "His knife is not bad."

"My lord, I didn't say anything." Wang Xiaosan looked at Xi Qi begging for mercy. During this period of time, he also knew that his position and Xi Qi didn't seem to be a righteous person. His request was very simple, as long as he lived.

"Okay, he won't believe what you say." Xi Qi waved his hand: "Take it down and apply medicine, don't show up these two days, the beating is too ugly."

"You bastards on the street, how can you do it properly." The congregation who came over with someone flatteringly said.Xi Qi tilted his head, cast a glance at him, and nodded with a chuckle when he saw the man stunned, "You stay to watch the door."

"Yes, Master."

Xi Qi walked out from the main entrance, and it was the first time he really felt the night breeze after coming here, but it's a pity that there is a curfew now, and there are no vendors at night.

"Mu Chen, come out for a night drink?" In front of General Annan's mansion, a beige figure jumped down.Luo Ying looked at Xi Qi who was not covered by the mask, and was stunned for a moment, "It seems that this mask really saved many lives."

"Do all the policemen in the capital talk like this?" Xi Qi smiled, his eyebrows looked even more picturesque under the moonlight.

"Sent out of feeling." Luo Ying smiled, "I guess you are here to find me."

"You saved my people, so it's normal for me to express my gratitude." Xi Qi raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her lips turned up slightly, "Isn't this what it should be?"

"I just didn't expect you to come here so directly." Luo Ying shrugged, "Then to express my gratitude, why don't you accompany me for a drink?"

"You know who I am, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Xi Qi stood in the middle of the street. Luo Ying probably wanted to test it out because of the recent changes in the hall and management staff. Today, I let Wang Xiaosan go out, which happened to be given to him Chance.

"You won't be in complete opposition to the imperial court. I'm pretty sure about that." Then Luo Ying remembered that the person in front of him might actually have the lives of several court officials, and added: "At least I'm sure you won't kill him." me."

Well, he was quite right.Xi Qi turned his head slightly, "Didn't you invite me to drink, just drink outside?"

"Of course not." Luo Ying smiled, "I have a good place, do you dare to go?"

"Is there an ambush?" Xi Qi took a step back pretending to be defensive, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was wider.

"Ah, I missed such a good opportunity." Luo Ying patted her head angrily, "But I believe there will be a next time. I'll let you go this time."

Xi Qi looked at the grinning man, and his beige gown and beige jacket became dazed, but those white teeth and words were exactly the same.
