The sound did not continue all the time, but occasionally an uncontrollable scream was heard.
"Who is this Steward Li? What did he do wrong to be locked up in the headquarters as a punishment?"
The previous few times the boss was brought here, there was no such noise, so out of natural curiosity the boss asked.
However, what the big boss got in return was a cold look from Butler Li: "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about. Be careful that you know too much. You should know that knowing too much is not a good thing!"
Although Butler Li looked kind, the boss always felt that he had a ruthless side.
After walking for a while, the screams could no longer be heard. The boss saw a familiar door in the distance, a door painted blue.
On previous occasions, the boss received the money in the house behind this door.
There is usually no one in that room, and the boss only needs to go in and report mumbling to the air.
Then a box will pop out, which contains the silver bills for next month. Part of the silver bills will be used to pay these new people.
A small portion of the silver bills are used to maintain the normal operation of the village.
All this money was given to the boss in one lump sum.
I still remember that when I first got the money, the boss was a little greedy. He thought that it would be better for him to take it all for himself and leave with the money.
As soon as he had this thought and walked out of the door with the money, he saw a man covered in blood, limp like a puddle of mud, being dragged away by Butler Li.
"This man is the leader of a large village of 400 people. He originally followed the master and had a bright future. But he actually wanted to embezzle so much money from his brothers. It's a pity that he didn't know that the master was always watching him."
"Do you really think that so much money is easy to take? I believe you are a smart person and you will not make the same stupid choice as him, right?"
At that time, there was still blood splattered on Butler Li's face, but he still showed a mouthful of white teeth, and spoke to the boss in a self-proclaimed kindly.
It was from that moment that the boss completely gave up the idea of running away with the money.
Anyway, he is the boss of the village, his word is final, and he gets paid every month.
Simply, this thought never occurred to me again.
After briefly recalling the scene of the first time he took the money, the boss's thoughts turned back to the present.
At that time, the blue door was getting closer and closer. When he arrived in front of the door, Butler Li had stopped moving forward.
The boss took a deep breath, exhaled, then reached out and pushed open the blue door.
After he entered, he stood in the center and said, "My Lord, the Thirteenth Black Wind Village has now recruited 500 people, and intercepted a batch of disaster relief silver and supplies last month. Steward Li brought the silver back some time ago."
"In addition, two-thirds of the people in the village have already memorized the village's rules, and the remaining one-third is still being trained!"
After talking a lot, the boss nervously shut his mouth and stood in the room waiting.
Normally, you just need to count to ten in your mind and the banknote will pop out.
But today seemed to be different from before. The boss had already counted about thirty numbers in his mind.
The banknote still didn't pop out.
Just when the boss was feeling uneasy, there was finally movement.
I saw that the grid where the silver bills were usually placed finally popped out, and this time there was a small piece of gold inside.
Under the gold was a slightly yellowed piece of paper.
"You did a great job in providing disaster relief money. This is a reward for you!"
Seeing this, the boss forgot all his fears, picked up the gold with a smile on his face, put it in his mouth and took a bite.
Then he happily put the remaining banknotes into his arms.
"Very good..." The boss muttered softly and left the room very quickly.
After all, according to the rules, he couldn't stay in the room after taking the banknotes.
With money in his pocket, the boss feels a lot more confident.
Also more refreshed than before.
Butler Li was waiting outside, and when he saw the boss's expression he didn't say anything, but just led the way, wanting to send the boss out.
When he was almost at the exit, the boss heard another scream.
This time the voice was full of forbearance and anger.
The person who screams feels creepy.
However, Butler Li stood by without changing his expression or beating his heart, and even urged the boss to walk faster.
In order to save his life, the boss had to keep all his curiosity and doubts in his heart.
The higher he went, the more noise he heard from the gambling house, and the more stable his heart became.
After sending the boss away, Butler Li quickly returned to the underground.
Pushing open the blue door, I felt for a protruding stone on the wall, and then a secret door appeared in the originally smooth wall.
Butler Li walked in and found an elegant room behind the secret door.
The people sitting behind the tea table were none other than the Third Prince and the Prime Minister.
At this time, the two were drinking tea.
Steward Li did not raise his head to take a closer look, but just lowered his head and said, "The general seems to have lost consciousness. Should we ask a doctor to come and take a look?"
The Third Prince sneered, "It's hard to persuade that damned ghost with kind words. I was so polite to him when I asked for his help, and I offered him such a generous reward, but who would have thought that he would dare to refuse."
"Isn't this behavior humiliating me?"
The prime minister at the side sighed and patted the third prince: "Your Highness, there is no need to be so impetuous. You don't have to take a mere little general to heart."
"At that time, I just thought that if I could subdue him, I could train the people in the Black Wind Village in the style of a regular army. This would be good, and give these people who can only talk about military affairs on paper more practical experience!"
The Third Prince felt so angry when he thought of the look on General Tian's face when he rejected him without a single word.
"Let him fend for himself!" said the third prince, waving his hand impatiently.
But the Prime Minister frowned and said, "We should find a doctor to take a look at him and keep him alive. Don't torture him too harshly. After all, General Tian came from a poor family. I believe that after some time, he will not be as stubborn as he is now!"
Steward Li looked at the Third Prince and the Prime Minister, and nodded without saying anything. "It just so happens that the doctor has a few doses of medicine. Some time ago, he wanted to ask me for some people to test the medicine. I don't have any suitable candidates here. Now let's see, I'm afraid there won't be a more suitable candidate than General Tian."
When the Third Prince heard what Butler Li said, he nodded in agreement: "Then let's make full use of this so-called General Tian and don't waste his pride!"
The prime minister exchanged glances with steward Li, and steward Li immediately withdrew.
