Chapter 16 Kong Ruian Visits
Ye Mingsheng didn't say anything, but patted his shoulder again, then waved his hand. Lin Huaiwu clasped his fists again, then turned and walked out of the tent. When he was about to leave the tent, he heard Ye Mingsheng behind him say lightly:
"Since there was the first batch and the second batch of firearms, there will naturally be a third batch. Don't rush into anything..."
Hearing this, a hint of joy suddenly flashed in Lin Huaiwu's eyes. Then he turned around and solemnly bowed to Ye Mingsheng who was sitting in the tent, and then strode out of the tent.
Looking at Lin Huaiwu's gradually receding back, Ye Mingsheng, who had gradually become accustomed to his identity, shook his head slightly.
In fact, Lin Huaiwu didn't need to say it, he also understood that the firearms in Heishanfeng's hands definitely did not come from him. Lin Huaiwu didn't have the courage to do this, and the reason why he said that was just to warn Lin Huaiwu, who also came from Zhaowu Camp like him!
Although the original owner relied heavily on Chen Yannian in military affairs, he was also very clear that although the battle-hardened Chen Yannian was respectful on the surface due to his official position, he actually looked down on a young boss like him who relied on Shangguan Hongyuan's Zhaowu Camp personal guards and had mediocre abilities.
Therefore, the original owner intended to support Lin Huaiwu to compete with the two old guys Chen Yannian and Wang Xian. For this reason, the original owner allocated the first batch of firearms allocated from the Xuanwu Army to Lin Huaiwu. Relying on these advanced firearms, Lin Huaiwu's troops fought several beautiful battles in succession and gained a lot of attention. This also made Chen Yannian and Wang Xian quite dissatisfied with this, and they mentioned this matter to Ye Mingsheng more than once.
Originally, Ye Mingsheng had no intention of getting involved in this matter. After all, if his subordinates became close friends, it would not be a good thing for him as the commander. But to his surprise, Lin Huaiwu was a little too proud. During a drink with his subordinates, he openly said that he wanted to be the commander, and even made a lot of promises. After he became the commander, he promised to promote his subordinates to be sentry leaders and so on.
By chance, Ye Tie heard what Lin Huaiwu said. As the captain of the personal guards, Ye Tie naturally reported these words to Ye Mingsheng, which led to today's incident. Ye Mingsheng wanted to give this guy a good beating and let him know his true worth.
However, because he needed someone right away, after scaring Lin Huaiwu, Ye Mingsheng decided to give him a sweet treat to prevent him from becoming disloyal to him...
After finishing the business in the big tent, Ye Mingsheng, as the commander, took his personal soldiers to inspect the military camp. While making a great presence felt, he also spent some money to treat his soldiers to a good meal and win over these elite troops of the Great Zhou court. You know, it won't be long before Ye Mingsheng will rely on this group of people to stop the palace army.
In the evening, Ye Mingsheng, who had stayed in the military camp for a whole day, returned to Liu's house with a tired look and had a meal. At this time, his personal soldier Ye Changling also got the medicine prepared by Pei Zhixiu for him from Changshan Medical Clinic.
Although this medicine was very effective, it was too bitter and Ye Mingsheng rejected it in his heart. After his body recovered, Ye Mingsheng did not plan to take it again. However, when he went to Changshan Medical Clinic, Pei Zhixiu reminded him again to take the medicine on time. Ye Mingsheng had no choice but to continue taking it.
Looking at the small bowl of black liquid with a bitter smell in his hand, Ye Mingsheng shook his head helplessly, frowned, and slowly took small sips of the medicine into his stomach.
After drinking the medicine and leaning on the bed, Ye Mingsheng, who had nothing to do, was a little distracted. He was hesitant in his heart whether to find one of the maids in Liu's mansion to accompany him through the long night...
The last time he touched a woman was when he had sex with his ex in his previous life, which was more than half a year ago.
As the Celestial Empire, the Great Zhou in this world is revered by foreign races. In addition, although Ye Mingsheng is not handsome, he has regular features, sharp edges and corners, and looks very heroic. Most importantly, he holds an official position and holds great power. Therefore, he is especially popular among the maids in the Liu Mansion. No one knows how many times he has been flirted with.
Before, because his body had not recovered, Ye Mingsheng did not dare to be presumptuous, so he could only sit still and not be disturbed. He did not know how many young girls' hearts he had hurt. Now that his body has recovered, maybe he can make some contribution to promoting exchanges between ethnic groups... Just when Ye Mingsheng's desire was rising and his big head was about to lose control of his small head, Ye Tie walked into his room and reported: "Master, Lord Kong Ruian is here?"
Ye Mingsheng, who was just about to have a night of romance, was stunned when he heard this and felt very depressed. However, after hesitating for a while, he ordered Ye Tie to invite Kong Ruian in.
Although he didn't know why Kong Ruian came here so late at night, Ye Mingsheng knew very well that Kong Ruian was fat and would not move if he could rest. He usually went to bed very early and had never come to him at this time. He came here suddenly now, so he must have something important to discuss with him.
A moment later, Kong Ruian, who was short and fat and had a very festive look, just like a Maitreya Buddha, came in front of Ye Mingsheng.
"Your humble servant greets His Excellency the Commander!"
Kong Ruian cupped his hands and said with a smile:
"Brother Kong, why are you doing this? There are two of us here, so there is no need to be restrained!" Ye Mingsheng pretended to be angry and said:
Having inherited the memories of his previous life, he also understood the identity and origin of the "living Maitreya" in front of him, and naturally would not put on airs towards him.
Although Kong Ruian doesn't look impressive, he is a child of a noble family. He was born in the Kong family of Yujing. Although he is not the direct son or grandson of the Kong family, he is still within the fifth degree of mourning in terms of bloodline.
The most important thing is that Kong Ruian’s biological father holds an important position in the Kong family’s business “Deshengchang”, and this “Deshengchang” is one of the major royal businesses responsible for the logistics procurement of the imperial army. It has many connections in the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Ministry of War.
Therefore, since Kong Ruian took over as the grain supervisor of his unit, the logistics work of Ye Mingsheng's unit was immediately greatly improved. Therefore, Kong Ruian also got the nickname "God of Wealth" in the army.
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's words, Kong Ruian stopped pretending. He smiled and sat down next to Ye Mingsheng and said, "Mingsheng, when do you think we will return to the court? This damn place, the palace, is too deserted. I want to eat Chenji's sesame cakes and mutton soup in Luoan North City..."
