I’m The King Chapter 393: : Deterrence and temptation

Listening to Fan Dengke's complaint, Wu Kai laughed out loud, and instead of answering directly, he asked about Fan Dengke's affairs in Langya.

"Director Fan, you are able to command these tens of thousands of people. I think you are trusted by Ye Xiang in Langya. I don't know what position you have in Langya?"

Listening to Wu Kai's question, Fan Dengke showed a wry smile, "What kind of official am I? To tell you the truth, Mr. Wu, I'm just a servant of Junshou Ye."

Wu Kai was taken aback when he heard Fan Dengke's answer, and looked at him, "Director Fan, I think you should be a scholar in your conversation, why did you become a house slave?"

Fan Dengke shook his head, "It's a long story. My Fan family has been a slave of the Ye family for several lifetimes, but my ancestors have always been officials in Langya. Later, when the Ye family fell, Fan The deed of the clan fell into the hands of the Linghu clan again. For this reason, my family did not suffer much impact, and continued to serve the Linghu clan, but it could not be reused. Two years ago, Ye Xiang destroyed Linghu, and our Fan clan returned to the Ye family."

After listening to Fan Dengke's words, Wu Kai finally understood. It turns out that Brother Fan has been other people's house slaves since his ancestors, but they are very high-level house slaves. Thinking that in Fufeng, General Gao wanted scholars but couldn't get them, but in Langya, scholars were actually slaves. This gap is too big.

"I don't know what plans Manager Fan has in the future?" Wu Kai asked.

"After all these craftsmen have been settled, I have to go back to Langya to return to my life. After I go back, I should probably do these things. Anyway, I am familiar with the road!" It's up to me, I can only look at the arrangement of the Patriarch."

"I want to settle all these craftsmen. It's not an easy task, I'm afraid it will take a long time!" Wu Kai spread his hands and said.

"So I'm in a hurry. To tell you the truth, Mr. Wu, my family lives in Langya. I can't go back this year for Chinese New Year. Thinking about it, I feel a little ashamed of my family?" Fan Dengke sighed.

"Boss Fan doesn't look very old, who else is there in the family?" Wu Kai asked.

"Apart from my wife, there are only two naughty boys." Fan Dengke smiled when he mentioned his own boy. He raised his head and looked in the direction of Langya, with a longing look in his eyes.

Looking at Fan Dengke in front of him, Wu Kai couldn't help but make up his mind. This person is undoubtedly a capable person. Tens of thousands of people, from Langya all the way to Fufeng, did not have any troubles along the way. After the more remote Jishi City, tens of thousands of people live outside the city. But it can be regarded as orderly, although there is a phenomenon of fleeing, but after all, it is a very small number, these credits. There is no doubt that it should be counted on this manager Fan. But such a talent is actually a house slave in Langya, which is too much.

Jishicheng Chengshoufu is now desperate for talents, since there are such people in my hands now. Is there any reason to let him slip away?

Thinking of this, the smile on Wu Kai's face became even brighter, "Director Fan. Please forgive me, do you want your descendants to continue to be slaves in the Ye family?"

Fan Dengke was taken aback, and then sighed after a while: "This is our fate, so what can we do?"

"Why don't you stay with us?" Wu Kai looked at him and said seriously: "A capable person like Mr. Fan will be reused if he stays in our Zhengdong Mansion."

"Staying here, Fan is not the same as a domestic slave. It's just that in Langya, he is a servant for Ye Junshou. Here, he is a slave for Miss and Uncle. It's the same. Why don't I stay in Langya? Ah, after all, it is richer and has a more pleasant climate, so where are my relatives and friends?" Fan Denko said.

"No, no, no!" Wu Kai waved his hands again and again, "I think you don't know our General Gao well. What he dislikes the most is treating people as slaves. A few years ago, one of his elders gave him a The house slave served him, and it didn't take long for General Gao to tear up the contract and send him out to work. Now this is the shopkeeper of Xianyun Building in Jicheng, and he can be regarded as having a good future. Manager Fan , that house slave doesn't have much ability to speak of, and it's not like you are a generation of scholarly disciples!"

Fan Denko was immediately surprised.

"So, as long as you are willing to stay, I will go to the general and his wife and tell the general and his wife that Ye Xiang loves his wife so much that she asked her father to ask you to come. Is it possible that Ye Xiang will refuse? I dare say that as long as the contract Once the book is in the hands of the general, it will immediately turn into a ball of shredded paper, and from then on, you, the Fan family, will be freed, and you will be free again." Wu Kai said with certainty.

Fan Denke swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the two blushes on his face became redder now, "You, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true, if there's even half a lie, you can beat me with your ears in the future!" Wu Kai said. "I'm afraid that you, Mr. Fan, are greedy for Langya's comfortable climate and rich land, and you don't want to come to our remote and remote place!"

Van Denko clenched his fist tightly, "If you can get back your freedom, who would be willing to be a slave, and will be a slave for generations?"

Wu Kai was overjoyed, "Why do you say that, Manager Fan agreed to me?"

"If I can really be free, I, Fan Denke, will be a member of Jishi City from now on." Fan Denke stood up and said loudly.

"Okay, that's great!" Wu Kai was overjoyed, "Director Wu, then I still lack a long-term position in the city's shoufu. Would you like to take the post of Chief Fan?"

In a blink of an eye, Wu Kai promised his third official position today, the post of long history in the city guard mansion second only to him. Tang He on one side was dumbfounded, while Fan Dengke opened his mouth wide open and couldn't close it.

"Master Wu, this, isn't this too hasty?" He murmured.

"What's so careless?" Wu Kai laughed, "Director Fan, what is the biggest problem with Jishi City now? It's not about building the city, but about the tens of thousands of people you brought. And the next arrangement is a big problem that makes people scratch their heads. Who is most familiar with them? You, these people will become the largest group of people in Jishi City in the future. If you come to serve as the long history, many things can be solved easily Solving the problems of your tens of thousands of people, building a city or something, will only benefit from it, won't you? Tell me, who else is more suitable for this position than you?"

Fan Denke smiled wryly. The other party went around in a big circle. It turned out that the final focus was here. Although the other party had bad intentions, he couldn't refuse the price he offered. He took a deep breath He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Wu Kai, "Since your lord has announced it so openly, if I, Fan Dengke, still don't agree, then I don't know what is good."

Wu Kai was overjoyed, and looked back at Tanghe, "Master Tang, remember, Fan Dengke is now the long history of my Jishi City Mansion, and the monthly salary is ten guan. Fan Changshi, is it enough?"

Fan Dengke smiled wryly, "Enough is enough! It's just that Mr. Wu, I don't understand something. What are you going to use to accommodate my tens of thousands of people with such an empty city guard mansion?"

Looking at him, Wu Kai laughed and said, "Although Jishicheng City Guard's Mansion is empty now, we have the power in our hands, and the Shangfang sword given to us by General Gao. With this, why can't we do it? "

"This, I don't understand!" Fan Denko shook his head.

"First step, I will follow General Gao's order to burn the **** of these people. From now on, these people will be free!" Wu Kai pointed to the box next to Tang He. .

Hearing Wu Kai's words, Fan Dengke was startled, "Master Wu, this is absolutely unacceptable. Once the slave bond is burned, these people will be free. If they want to leave at that time, how can we restrain them?" , You must know that the reason for this smooth journey is that these people are domestic slaves! Once they escape, they will be killed if they are caught."

"Run, where are they going?" Wu Kai laughed, "I have to trouble Mr. Fan to explain this matter after going down. Jishi City is located in the hinterland of the grassland, and the surrounding area is full of defeated Huns , horse bandits, leave here, but no one can guarantee their safety, if they have the courage to cross the hundreds of miles of grassland without soldiers escorting them!"

Looking at the murderous look in Wu Kai's eyes, Fan Dengke was shocked, "Master Wu, those people who fled a few days ago?"

Wu Kai said coldly: "We have found these people back, but they have already turned into corpses. I think this will wake up these people."

Hearing Wu Kai's words, Tang He's body shook violently. He knew that these fugitives were still detained in the army and did not die after they were captured, but Wu Kai said these few words , these people are dead.

"This is a show of prestige!" Wu Kai raised his head, but there was a smile on his face again, "The next thing is to lure them for profit. I think they are very happy to be able to get back their freedom. , as long as those who stay here voluntarily, each household will be given a hundred acres of land, and the city guard of Jishi City will give them a land deed. Third, Jishi City will open various workshops soon, and these craftsmen will use their The generous wages are arranged in the workshop. Of course, we have some rules here, and these craftsmen also need to understand that they rely on technology to speak, and the higher the technology, the higher the reward."

Speaking of which, Wu Kai looked at Fan Dengke and said with a smile: "Master Fan, you can choose the best place to choose 500 mu of land as your Fan family's property."

"Isn't it one hundred acres per household?" Fan Denko asked shyly.

"You are the great history of Jishi City, how can you be the same?" Wu Kai said with a smile: "Furthermore, among those craftsmen, I think you know it well, each of them has two hundred mu. In addition, we will distribute unrequited livestock and agricultural tools for them, of course, this requires money, but you can owe it first and pay it back later.”

"How much land does this need?"

"Maybe we have few other things here, but we have a lot of land!" Wu Kai said with a smile. It’s not a small property, I think, these craftsmen may not be able to earn this property after working hard in Langya all their lives, right? Now as long as they settle down here, they may have it instantly!” (to be continued~IndoMTL.com~
