Several people laughed.
If anyone dares to rob it, Zhao Lin will have an excuse to take action.
There is no need to use the name of pirates. Just use the Qingzhou army to kill them all and be done with it once and for all.
Zhao Lin said, "Although the leaders of the three provinces have been arrested, this is just the beginning, and there is still a lot of work to be done. You all need to be attentive and don't let others take advantage of you."
The benefit was not only the confiscated property, but also official positions in three provinces.
This is more valuable than those belongings.
With so many positions suddenly vacant, the bigwigs in the court are going to be in a dilemma again.
But this has nothing to do with Zhao Lin.
Although he wanted to occupy the three governor positions, he had been in power for too short a time and did not have many available people under his command.
If Sudi and the other three were placed in the position of governor, Zhao Lin would have no one available.
Moreover, the three of them had little interest in the governor.
Su Di wanted to follow Zhao Lin, Gong Qiubai was more interested in what Zhao Lin would do next, and Su Yinghan knew very well the benefits of following Zhao Lin closely, so he naturally didn't want to give up for the sake of a governor.
If he had been satisfied when he was in Jiujiang before, he would not be qualified to choose the governor now.
"You all go and get busy, and call Mi Banxia in." Zhao Lin ordered.
Sudi said unhappily, "What do you have to say that you need to hide from us?"
Zhao Lin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm not carrying you on my back, aren't you busy?"
Sudi sat still: "It won't take a moment."
Su Yinghan tried hard to wink at Su Di, but Su Di remained unmoved.
Gong Qiubai had stood up, but when he looked at Sudi, he sat down again.
He just loves to watch the fun.
Su Yinghan saw that neither of them moved, so he simply didn't move either.
They cannot be left alone to have a chance to hold a small circle meeting.
Zhao Lin laughed.
Soon Mi Banxia came in and bowed to Zhao Linyingying: "Banxia greets you, sir."
"Miss Mi, please don't be polite. Please take a seat."
After Mi Banxia sat down, Zhao Lin said, "The Mi family has made a great contribution to successfully suppressing the pirates and apprehending the thieves who colluded with them. Miss Mi, in particular, deserves a reward for following me and risking her life. What reward do you desire?"
Mi Banxia said: "Grandfather said that this is what we should do, and there is no need for your reward."
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "Reward those who have made contributions and punish those who have made mistakes. A clear distinction between rewards and punishments is the principle of clean governance. Although Mr. Mi is a man of high moral character, I cannot but reward him."
Mi Banxia insisted, "It is a great reward for you to spare my brother's life. I dare not ask for more."
Zhao Lin said, "That's because the Mi family has strict rules, so it doesn't count. How about this, doesn't your brother like maritime trade? After the Spring Examination, regardless of whether he passes the imperial examination or not, I will guarantee that he will be promoted to the Maritime Customs Office."
Mi Banxia quickly stood up and said, "On behalf of my brother, I would like to thank you for the reward."
After being promoted to the position of Maritime Customs, Mi Jinxuan became the boss of the Maritime Customs, a fifth-rank official, which was a great achievement for him.
Otherwise, even with the background of the Mi family, he would have to work hard for several years to reach this position.
Zhao Lin raised his hand to signal Mi Banxia to sit down, and said, "This is a reward for your family. What do you want?"
Mi Banxia hesitated for a moment and said, "Can I have anything I want?"
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "As long as I can do it."
Mi Banxia said, "I want to stay with you, sir."
"Um?"
Sudi immediately looked at Mi Banxia viciously.
Mi Banxia's heart skipped a beat.
No way, the master is so vigorous and handsome, could he be a homosexual?
But it's normal. Many officials have male favorites and are fond of homosexuality. It's nothing for the adults to have such a hobby.
Just a stain on being an adult.
Su Yinghan keenly noticed Su Di's dissatisfaction.
His heart was pounding.
Yes, yes, I was wondering why my cousin was so loyal to Zhao Lin. He was a third place winner in the imperial examination after all, yet he followed Zhao Lin around everywhere without asking for any conditions, just like a young wife. Zhao Lin let my cousin do all the important things and trusted him so much. Now I understand.
Thinking about the fact that Su Di had lived in Zhao Lin's house for a while, Su Yinghan suddenly realized.
No wonder Zhao Lin trusts his cousin so much. This is a relationship that was formed through sleeping with him.
My cousin has worked so hard!
Gong Qiubai sighed secretly.
Sudi is also a talented and good man, so why does he have problems with his sexual orientation?
This could easily become a reason for others to criticize him.
Zhao Lin was also startled by Mi Banxia's words and said, "You can see it too. It's very dangerous to follow me. Let's find someone else."
Mi Banxia insisted, "I am not afraid of danger."
Zhao Lin asked, "Why do you want to follow me?"
Mi Banxia looked at Zhao Lin with admiration, "A man like Lord Zhao is a true man. By following Lord Zhao, I can experience a different kind of scenery, a scenery I will never be able to experience in my entire life."
Zhao Lin laughed heartily and asked, "Does Mr. Mi agree?"
Having such a young lady from a noble family following him is no different from marrying him, so Zhao Lin naturally has to ask what her family thinks.
Mi Banxia said, "Grandfather naturally agreed, otherwise he wouldn't have let me bring people to help."
Zhao Lin nodded and said, "Well, if you insist, then follow me. If you can't bear the hardship, tell me anytime and I'll send someone to bring you back."
Mi Banxia said happily, "Don't worry, sir. I'm definitely not a delicate woman who can't stand hardship."
"That's not necessarily true," Sudi said unhappily. "Many people say they can endure hardship, but when they do, they complain endlessly. Not only do they fail to get things done, but it actually delays things."
