Versatile Mage: Demon Mage

Chapter 426 Lingling Accounting

Tang Zhong made a quick phone call, and the other party seemed to be already prepared. After informing him, he hung up the call.

He then made several more phone calls, including to the Imperial Guard Mage Military Commander, Speaker Shao Zheng, the military staff, and so on.

After Tang Zhong ended the call, he put away his phone and turned to look at Wang Teng, "I have notified everyone. The person in charge of the Tang family who will be collecting the goods will be here soon."

"The Imperial Guard Mage Commander and the Speaker are also aware of this matter. They will slightly transfer the mages stationed nearby. After all, manpower is limited."

"They will also arrange for some personnel to follow and monitor the safety of the area. If the defense line here is breached, they can dispatch personnel in time."

"At the same time, they will also participate in maintaining order here. I will stay here for a while and leave after things stabilize."

He has already thought of all the possible things that might happen, and as long as this matter plays a positive role in stopping the Siren, no one will be able to gossip.

Wang Teng was very satisfied with Tang Zhong's arrangement. It was indeed a pleasure to cooperate with an experienced person.

He only needs to fight to hunt the sirens, and the other party will handle all the rest of the arrangements.

After all, in such a large-scale battlefield, engaging in such fancy money-making activities would have a somewhat bad impact, as there were many mages desperately fighting the sirens on the scene.

He was only a member of the imperial court, not a position of real power. Compared with Tang Zhong, a powerful chief judge with a good reputation in the local area, his prestige was much lower.

The other party will be able to handle these matters more easily and will not fall into any public opinion trap.

This is the case in China, but it would be very different if it happened abroad. The situation would even be reversed, with making money becoming the mainstream and the death of mages being thrown aside.

In a blink of an eye, hundreds of sirens were lying along the coast, and the sirens active in the nearby area were basically dead.

Now we just have to wait for the sirens on the front line of defense to rush into the inland river basin.

It was drizzling, and Leng Qing built a spacious rock mushroom pavilion on the spot to shelter from the rain. A group of people sat on the stone benches under the pavilion and waited.

After just a few minutes, more than a dozen trucks drove towards this side quickly.

A group of people quickly got off the car, and the leader ran to the Mushroom Pavilion.

"Clan leader~" Tang Li, with his thin body, bowed slightly towards Tang Zhong.

"Well, this is our partner this time, Councillor Wang Teng. Remember to keep statistics carefully and make no mistakes. Report the statistics to the group every hour."

Tang Zhong briefly introduced Wang Teng to him, then pulled him into a WeChat group and immediately let him get to work.

"Lingling will be in charge of our side. What do you think? Are you interested?" Wang Teng looked at her with a smile.

The reason why Tang Yue was not assigned to be responsible for this kind of thing was to avoid suspicion, and he also didn't want to make things difficult for Tang Yue in the future.

After all, interests are involved, and it is inevitable that some of her people will want to enrich themselves. If this happens, a little bit of profit is not worth making Tang Yue caught in the middle and making things difficult for her.

"Ah? Me?" Lingling stared at him with an incredulous look, pointing at herself, shocked and confused.

Tang Zhong understood instantly and could only smile helplessly. Then he looked happily at the little girl in front of him, Leng Qing's sister.

"I believe in your intelligence and talent!" Wang Teng gave her an affirmative look and gave her a thumbs up to encourage her.

Leng Qing hesitated to speak. She didn't really want Lingling to do this, but she couldn't say it out loud.

After looking at the serious Wang Teng, she glanced at everyone present, and with a flicker in her eyes, she quickly understood.

"Can I do it?" Lingling looked up at her sister Leng Qing for help.

"Of course, you're so smart." Leng Qing smiled and rubbed her little head. "Okay, I'll do it!" Lingling's expression changed quickly, and she happily took out her phone from her pocket and joined the WeChat group.

Dealing with accounting issues is just a small problem for her, but she certainly can't act so unrestrained in front of her sister.

Now that she got the approval, she felt relieved. Besides, it looked very interesting to be involved in such a money-making thing.

While we were waiting quietly here, loading had already started over there. Several people carried the body of the mermaid and threw it into the truck.

When one truck is full, it drives away, and the truck behind it continues to follow the front truck, with someone specifically counting the quantity and quality.

For example, the slave-level and general-level sirens are actually far from comparable to the land monsters in terms of size. The situation will only change when they reach the commander level.

Therefore, it is more convenient to load them onto a truck. Even an ordinary person, as long as he is in good physical condition, can lift two sirens by himself.

The level of the siren can be detected with instruments. It is relatively easy to simply distinguish between the slave stage and the general stage.

A few minutes later, two more military vehicles came speeding over.

The Speaker got out of the car with the Hangzhou military commander behind him, and looked at the behemoth towering over the river. Even the commander-level sea monsters on the offensive line ahead were not as powerful as this guy.

Where did Wang Teng capture such a top-notch beast?
"Well done!"

Shao Zheng quickly walked towards the mushroom pavilion and started praising Wang Teng's behavior. With this guy, how many fewer mages would die on the garrison?

"This is Mu Junsi. All the royal guards of Hangzhou City are under his charge." He introduced the person following behind him to Wang Teng.

"Hello, Mu Junsi!" Wang Teng was very considerate and took the initiative to extend his hand to greet him. In terms of level, the other party was far inferior to him.

"Hello~Hello~Senator Wang Teng, your name is well-known." Mu Zhuo walked forward enthusiastically and shook the other party with both hands.

Wang Teng smiled slightly and didn't pay too much attention to his flattering words. He should be said that he was worthy of being a family that cooperated with the military, as he could actually hold the position of the military commander of the Hangzhou Royal Guards Mage.

"Wang Teng, do you think we can build a few more bases like this?"

"If there are two or three more sea monsters like this, I can even withdraw the defense line of Qianjiang Bridge." Shao Zheng said half-jokingly.

Such a siren is enough to match the interception force of a Royal Guard Mage Corps, and the effect is very good. It can not only defeat the slave-level, but also the commander-level.

"It depends on the need. There's nothing wrong with letting the garrisoned mage fight with the defense barrier to gain experience."

"Without a monarch-level siren charging into the formation, the defensive barrier can still withstand the pressure."

"Besides, if I catch all the siren fish by myself, it would be too embarrassing. I can't let everyone work in vain."

"Since so many people have come, there must be something to look forward to, right?"

Wang Teng was also chatting with Shao Zheng half-jokingly. It was impossible for him to do everything Shao Zheng said.

With his current level of strength, he should say whatever he wants, otherwise he would be letting himself down after all the years of struggle.

He is just a member of parliament now, and is far from entering the high-level decision-making circle. As the saying goes, one should do his job according to his position. Since he is not in that position, he is naturally much freer.

"Haha~ Councillor Wang Teng, you are too polite. Even if you take away all the sea monsters, I have no objection!"

Mu Zhuo laughed out loud, amused by Wang Teng's words. He wished he didn't have to face the attack of the Siren and use the mage's life to fill this hole.
