Chapter 198: Mission

Chang Lin led his men out of the palace, looked up at the already drowsy sky, and smiled silently. Liu Guo did not give a reply on the spot, but said that he would discuss it. Chang Lin did not care about this. Because Anyang's production capacity is limited now, it is still impossible to fully trade with foreign trade. Therefore, it does not matter whether Liu Guo agrees to trade.

The important thing is that through this excuse, you can enter Liu State for inspection and further plan to recruit talents. This is the only purpose of coming to Liu State!

But as soon as Chang Lin walked out of the palace, a man with disheveled hair and a mess came to Chang Lin and asked, "Are you from Anyang? Is it Anyang where Li Xian, who said that the country of industry and commerce, is located?"

"Yes." Chang Lin replied without thinking; because of the prevalence of the concept of business and prosperity, people in Anyang are very proud of this.

The disheveled man immediately looked up and showed a pale face, "Can I go to Anyang?"

Chang Lin frowned slightly, but calmed down, "Now everyone can go to Anyang, we welcome anyone."

"Really? Then can I go with your big ship?"

Chang Lin felt at this time - how could this person become more and more arrogant?

It seemed that Chang Lin was hesitating, and the man with disheveled hair immediately took out a jade pendant from his arms, "This jade pendant is a low-level magic weapon, which has the effect of clearing the heart and removing fire, and is worth 100 taels of gold. I use this for travel expenses."

Chang Lin looked at the man and pushed the man's hand back, "If you have the ability, I can give you a ride for free. But if you don't have the ability, then I'm sorry, you are not qualified to board the ship!"

When he heard this, the man with disheveled hair suddenly moved, holding a spell in his hand and spelled a spell in his mouth. In an instant, a breeze swirled up; after a moment, a pale young man stood in front of Chang Lin. However, the man was dressed in a little tattered dress and his hair was still bloody, but his image was much better than before. At least, he would no longer have disheveled hair.

The man then recited a magic spell to purify his body, and the dirty and bloody stains on his body disappeared without a trace.

After this change, the man changed from a beggar to a half-noble prince. If he hadn't been pale, blood-stained, and even a little sad and indescribable despair, if he hadn't been ragged, he might have been a handsome nobleman.

After finishing up, the man actually introduced him seriously, "Hello, my name is Gongsun Wushang. I think, with my name, I am qualified to step onto your big ship!"

Chang Lin frowned slightly, "Sorry, I just came here and didn't hear your name."

Gongsun Wushang pointed at the people around him, "You can ask everyone. There are so many people, you can always ask for some information."

Chang Lin was not polite and immediately asked the people on the street. As a result, no one was willing to say a word! As long as the four words "Gongsun Wushang" were mentioned, everyone's eyes began to flash.

This was a bit wrong; Chang Lin changed his eyes and asked the old man, "Brother-in-law, Liu Guo is not like Gongsun Wushang!"

The old man's answer was very interesting, "Yes, no. It was gone two hours ago."

This answer is so interesting. Chang Lin is also a general, and he is still a master of the Jindan stage. Of course, he is not stupid. He turned to look at the guy who called him "Gongsun Wushang" and immediately made a decision, "Let's go, I'll take you to Anyang. But let's talk first, if you are not Gongsun Wushang, or if you are not capable enough, then it's still time to regret it now."

Gongsun Wushang walked forward arrogantly, "Don't worry, I will definitely take special care of you in the future."

Chang Lin did not return to the big ship at night, but lived in the building arranged by Liu Guo; but asked the people around him to send Gongsun Wushang to the ship. Since he was sure that this person might be a talent, Chang Lin must of course hold it in his hands. Gongsun Wushang seemed to be in the foundation building stage, and it was not enough to make damage when he arrived on the ship.

Not to mention Gongsun Wushang's surprise when he saw the iron-clad ship, but Chang Lin finally learned at night what kind of method of governing the country by Liu State and the Legalists. Orders were enforced and ruled the country by law; but this law was a cool law! For example, in the afternoon, the palace issued an order to "no talk about Gongsun Wushang", but no one dared to talk about it; anyone who dared to say anything randomly would be beaten to the board, and the heavier ones would have their tongue cut; the serious ones would even have their heads cut!

"Is the laws here really suitable for Anyang?" Chang Lin was stunned when he listened to the bloody and cool laws regulations. This was not a law to govern the country, but a prison law in prison! The law was harsh and detailed, and even swearing was prohibited.

"I almost stipulated that I should use my right foot first or my left foot first!" said a guard.

Chang Lin didn't speak, but was just quietly flipping through the law. The laws here are open, even printed by the state. Perhaps this is one of the few advantages of the Legalist thought.

After reading the legal provisions, Chang Lin suddenly sighed, "This law is really strict. The Legalist idea is to keep the people in captivity like pigs and dogs! Such a law is really... too harsh."

The guards around agreed and said: The people of Liu State are so pitiful. But then everyone began to think that the young master seemed to be looking for talents from the Legalists. Will this be the same in Anyang in the future? I heard that the young master likes a "standardization" very much.

"I'm thinking about something, I'm resting, I'll be busy tomorrow!"

Chang Lin drove away the surrounding guards, but he was worried that the Legalist thought was too extreme. Only three types of people were allowed to exist in the entire country, but in the end everything was concentrated on the emperor, making the entire country a private paradise exclusive to the emperor.

The next day, Chang Lin met the prime minister of Liu again; to be precise, the prime minister of Liu took the initiative to visit. This really made Chang Lin a little flattered. There is a saying that: if you have nothing to do, you will be either a traitor or a thief. If the prime minister actually visited, he must have some requirements.

Sure enough, the first sentence of the meeting was that the prime minister of Liu State said, I want to follow you to Anyang to have a look.

Want to go to Anyang to see it? Chang Lin frowned a little, not knowing what the prime minister had intended. But if both sides want to cooperate, it is normal for Liu Guo to send someone to Anyang to see it, and Chang Lin has no reason to refuse.

This purpose was confirmed, and Prime Minister Liu immediately smiled, "General Chang, I will trouble you from now on. In addition, I am Han Yuanchang, just call me my name."

"Then I'm not polite. I don't know when you are going to set off?"

"How about tomorrow? I'll prepare some small gifts today."

"good."
