Chapter 190.2
He returned very frustrated and reported the situation to the Deputy Commander of the Shadow Division.
After hearing the report, the Deputy Commander also trembled with anger.
1.5 million taels, hes outright taking advantage of the situation! This is outrageous! Lets leave this person be for now and find another way with someone else!
Xu Dong became anxious: Commander, we cant just ignore him! Hes in charge of the Ministry of War and has the authority to supervise the military. If he doesnt relent, all our plans will fall through!
The Deputy Commander was furious: Are we supposed to just let ourselves be slaughtered?
Xu Dong nodded bitterly.
The deputy commander thought for a moment, then waved his hand impatiently, Forget it, let him take advantage for now! I will take care of him myself later after the matter is settled!
Commander is wise! Xu Dong bowed with both hands.
Right, whos next?
The next one is the Minister of Revenue and concurrently the Minister of Works, Heshen!
The deputy commander blinked, Whats he like?
More corrupt than all the others combined!
The deputy commander:
A day later, Xu Dong returned with a grave expression.
Commander, the other party is demanding two million taels of silver, not a penny less. What do you think
The deputy commander flew into a rage: The audacity! This is outrageous! They are all corrupt officials, each of whom is more corrupt than the other, they all deserve to die! That foolish emperor, why doesnt he execute them? Whats the point of keeping them?
Previously, seeing so many corrupt officials and so much corruption in Great Xia had excited him.
Because of the corrupt officials, he had opportunities!
The more corrupt officials there were, the more opportunities he had!
But now, he just wants to kill this group of people who are a disaster to the country and a curse to the people!
He wanted to flay them, dismember them, and subject them to slow slicing
To let them endure all the extreme punishments in the world!
Otherwise, he couldnt calm the fury in his heart!
Why cant I understand?
Lin Beifan looked at the collected banknotes and laughed heartily: Good! Well done, Ministers!
The total amount of these banknotes was nearly 3 million taels.
Moreover, over 4 million taels of silver that were being transported had already been intercepted and robbed by Lin Beifan.
In other words, he easily made over 7 million taels of silver through this operation.
After this matter is concluded, we will discuss rewards based on your contributions! Lin Beifan said spiritedly.
Thank you, Your Majesty! The officials beamed with joy.
Completely puzzled, General Rengong stepped forward: Can someone tell what exactly is going on?
Cao Cao laughed and said: Generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong, havent you been searching for the person secretly plotting against you?
Yes!
The three generals nodded, speaking with resentment: But the person behind it all has been hiding too well. Weve exhausted ourselves and only caught a few small fry, which is really frustrating!
In fact, His Majesty has already found them. It turns out to be the Shadow Division of the Great Jin Empire, trying to tempt you three to serve them! When one plan failed, they tried another, but His Majesty saw through it and turned their plan against them, making them cough up a good amount of silver!
Really? Thats amazing! General Rengong burst into laughter.
Your Majesty, where are they? The three of us brothers will go and capture them right away! General Digong said eagerly.
Although General Tiangong didnt speak, his face was full of anticipation as he looked at Lin Beifan.
Lin Beifan immediately gave the order: Very well! I will now command Generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong to go and eliminate the Shadow Division of the Great Jin Empire lurking in Great Xia! In addition, I will send the Heng Ha Generals, Deadly Scholar, Empty Hand Master, Heavenly Dog Divine Detective, and others to assist you. Dont let a single one escape! Bring them back alive or present their bodies!
Thank you, Your Majesty! The three generals said in unison.
Then, the courts masters swiftly sprang into action.
A total of eight Innate experts divided into eight directions surrounded the small courtyard and initiated a bloody slaughter, not letting a single one escape.
Even the Shadow Divisions deputy commander who was the most powerful among them died under the chaotic blades.
