"How about letting him be an assistant official? Like me..." The lawyer pointed at himself.

"Do we need to pay him?" The county magistrate frowned.

"You don't have to. It depends on how you discuss it with him." The lawyer spread his hands.

As a legal advisor, he is in charge of the finances of Muyun City.

In theory, officials like him should actually be paid by the county magistrate himself... because they have no official position and are just "temporary workers".

"Okay, let him be an assistant official!"

Chapter 146 New Mission

The three were arranged to live in the rebuilt Tianyuan Street. This Tianyuan Street was the most severely damaged, so everyone had to live in tents, but the spirit gathering array was guaranteed.

There are not many cultivators in Tianyuan Street now, and only a few of them come here on their own initiative to seek refuge.

The group of monks is quite special. Many of them have no sense of family and country. They just want to practice and pursue the unattainable dream of becoming immortals. They even learn from the ancient monks to cut off all emotions and desires.

In their view, Muyun City just changed its owner. As long as they can still get the previous income and the people here don't mind, they can join.

There are relatively few such monks in the North. Most people who grew up in the North have a deep-seated hatred for the grassland people. After all, unless they fight a big war, they will occasionally send a small number of troops to harass them.

The great barrier was not so perfect, and occasionally there would be small loopholes, and some grassland people would rush in to plunder, causing countless people to be destroyed and killed.

The major loophole that appeared this time can be said to occur only once every few hundred years.

"I am a Free and Easy Realm cultivator, but I am receiving the salary of a Divine Sea Realm cultivator. This is really unfair to my Master." Mo Yi was still complaining even after he arrived at the arranged residence.

"If I report my Xiaoyao realm cultivation directly, the other party will definitely be on guard. After all, the gap between Xiaoyao realm and Zhoutian realm is too big. Whether it's the amount of true energy or the ability to fly, it will definitely be closely monitored." Shen Lang said: "Master, can you really keep it secret?"

"Of course, I give priority to practicing this kind of spells, as well as stealth, invisibility, and so on..." Mo Yi mentioned a lot of spells that men wanted to learn after hearing them.

However, Shen Lang himself has become a cultivator and has higher pursuits. He doesn't want to learn any invisibility techniques. Otherwise, if it were him who had just passed through that formation... ahem.

“But giving me only the salary of a Divine Sea Realm employee is still too low!” Mo Yi rubbed his hair.

"I'll make up the rest for you, okay?"

"Hey, I've been waiting for you to say this." Mo Yi patted Shen Lang on the back.

The few of them just glanced at the residence in front of them and ran to the slave camp that the county magistrate mentioned.

I saw several soldiers from the grassland walking out, talking and laughing, holding up their trousers.

Looking at Shen Lang's clothes and the badge he had just received, several soldiers quickly saluted Shen Lang.

Shen Lang had a smile on his face, but his heart was extremely cold.

Is this how we treat the people of the Great Zhou well and ensure equality?

Shen Lang suppressed his anger and came to the entrance of the slave camp. He said to the manager, "I'll take a few servants..."

As he spoke, Shen Lang handed over the note that the county magistrate had written to him.

"Hey, monk, you are the first one who can directly receive slaves." The steward glanced at him and said: "You can receive four."

"Excuse me." Shen Lang organized his words: "Didn't the city gate say that people from the Great Zhou can now move to Muyun City at will? Why are there still so many slaves..."

"Will the people of the Great Zhou outside be treated as slaves if they come in?"

"Hey, no, these slaves are all prisoners of war." The steward explained: "The army and servants of the King of Zhenbei, as well as the families of officials who resisted the Wolf Lord, and the families of merchants who sponsored the city's defenders."

"Other than these, ordinary people will not come in."

Shen Lang sneered in his heart.

Aren’t you the ones who decide what your identity is?

"What kind do you want?" asked the steward.

"One cook and three people to take care of daily chores. Find the younger ones for me." Shen Lang said.

He couldn't save more people now.

Respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue. Letting children go first when something happens has long been engraved in Shen Lang's bones.

"Okay." The manager casually threw the note into the box beside him.

In less than a moment, he came out with four little girls who looked only twelve or thirteen years old.

These girls looked dark and thin, obviously not beauties.

Mo Yi casually checked the breath of several people and found that they were all original.

It seems that these grassland people are also quite picky...

Or was he just captured and hasn’t had time to fall into the clutches of others?

When one of them saw Wei Qianluo, his eyes brightened up.

When Wei Qianluo saw that, her pupils shrank and she grabbed the corner of Shen Lang's clothes.

"elder sister……"

The child took a step forward and said anxiously to Wei Qianluo: "Save me..."

boom!

The manager's face changed and he kicked the little black girl.

poof...

The girl fell to the ground.

"Dare to call the guests?" The steward had a whip in his hand.

Bang, bang...

The first whip hit the little girl in the face.

"Ah..." The girl covered her face and cried out in pain.

The second whip hit her mouth.

Her mouth full of white teeth fell to the ground, and now she didn't dare to shout.

Wei Qianluo pinched Shen Lang's clothes tightly, and Shen Lang patted her hands, signaling her not to mess around.

"Excuse me, excuse me." The manager returned to Shen Lang with a smile: "I'll change one for you..."

"No need." Shen Lang said, "It's rare to meet someone who can call out to others. At least he looks a little smart. I'll take him back and train him myself."

"These few can all cook and do housework. They are all maids from wealthy families." The steward said, "Those young ladies and wives of officials do not meet your selection criteria."

"What if it's appropriate?" Shen Lang asked casually.

"Don't even think about it." The manager shook his head: "These are too popular. You can't enjoy them without some military merit, let alone take them away."

Shen Lang was silent for a moment.

He was even a little glad now. The battle in Muyun City was quite brutal. Except for a few people who escaped from Zhenbei Palace, most of them died.

Otherwise, it’s hard to imagine what they’re going through…

The shame of Jingkang is just this, right?

"Okay, these are the four I want to take away."

【Attention, attention, mission triggered, mission triggered! 】

[Mission Target: Four Warriors (Wei Dong)]

[Wei Qianluo reunites with Wei Dong, one of his four brave generals]

[The Four Warriors are the four most capable generals under the Northern War God Wei Qianluo. They are all Wei Qianluo's diehard fans, and each of them has reached the Divine Profound Realm.]

[With the host's cultivation in the Heavenly Man Realm, it is not too easy to bully Wei Dong]

[But, to kill someone, one must destroy the person's heart! ]

[Task: Humiliate Wei Qianluo in front of Wei Dong, spank Wei Qianluo a thousand times, and make her lose face in front of her subordinates]

[Task Reward: Tianqing Powder Recipe (Suitable for Sensitive Skin)]

[Tianqing Powder: After use, all the other party's senses will be amplified tenfold. As for how to use it, you know.]

"Qianluo, do you know him?" Shen Lang pulled Wei Qianluo.

It feels like it's expanded tenfold? If this thing is used with the Thunder Fire Sword, wouldn't it be enough to kill him?

Shen Lang never expected that he would encounter this mission.

"Well... this is a maid I met in the palace. I'm not familiar with her." Wei Qianluo shook his head: "She seems to be bullied often like me."

Chapter 147 Curiosity kills Yi

Shen Lang studied the task carefully and asked the system.

"System, does this mission have a mission chain like the one for Wei Qianluo and Lu Fengxian?"

[No, there are only three tasks. Host, do you feel a sense of accomplishment in bullying the Divine Mysterious Realm? ]

"I am a Divine Sea Realm person, how can I bully the Divine Mysterious Realm person? Are you kidding me!"

[Host, please don't joke. The host is in the Heaven Realm, confirmed! ]

Shen Lang was too lazy to argue with this system.

In short, among the four maids at the back, one is qualified and can cultivate to the Shenxuan realm, so she is worth training.

Shen Lang has no intention of looking down on the Divine Profound Realm.

With the Tianren realm being the pinnacle and dukes, generals and first-rank officials all in the Shenxuan realm, the Shenxuan realm is already the top in this world. On the contrary, the Tianren realm is something that can only be reached by chance.

After Shen Lang brought a few slaves back, he asked them to take a bath first, and then the three of them gathered in Shen Lang's tent.

"What should we do next?" Mo Yi sat on Shen Lang's bed and crossed her legs.

The tents of the three people were next to each other. Since it was Tianyuan Street where the monks lived, it seemed that the grassland wanted to build it well, so the construction was not as fast as other places.

Simply put, other places are normal residential areas and commercial areas, while Tianyuan Street is a villa area.

"Work normally first." Shen Lang crossed his arms: "Our job is to repair the city wall for four hours a day, and the rest of the time we can do whatever we want."

"Free activities. In that case, I can try to open a store?" Mo Yi touched his chin: "Now these bumpkins have just arrived and are ignorant. I can clean up my warehouse."

"Sure...but the Sixth Prince only gave me five days." Shen Lang spread his hands and said, "We still have to leave in a few days."

"How much money can you make in just a few days?"

[Task progress: 133/1000]

Lu Fengxian is great. He has been working hard all the time.

The surrounding grassland cavalry are in trouble. Who knows how many people this naughty kid can kill in the next few days?

"Yeah, if that doesn't work, I'll find a store to sign up with, or set up a stall on Tianyuan Street. The stall fee is cheap and is charged by the day." Mo Yi snapped his fingers: "No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it's still meat."

"Master, if we leave, what will happen to those maids?" Wei Qianluo hesitated and asked the question.

From the time he was selecting people until now, Wei Qianluo didn't dare to show any abnormality, for fear that these spies of his could be exposed.

It is rare for Wei Qianluo to meet acquaintances nowadays.

Even though it brought back sad memories of her time in the palace, she still felt that she should help, after all, there was no hatred between them in the beginning.

"Take them with you. Help them to the end. We will then bring them to Cannes and see what they can do." Shen Lang said.

"Yeah." Wei Qianluo breathed a sigh of relief, then asked cautiously: "Then can I choose one myself?"

Although she was living a relatively good life, Wei Qianluo always felt like a rootless duckweed, and she had many things to say but didn't know who to talk to.

After all, she and Shen Lang could never reach the point where they could talk about everything.

Just like the chat records between girls and their besties, few girls dare to expose them...

Some things are too explosive if you say them to a man.
