"Your Majesty, there are two more days before the deadline of 30 days is up. Before that, I'm going back. Do you want to relax?" Ren Baqian asked as he stood beside the empress.
The war would begin in two days.
Xi Wanya had already begun his preparations, and all the soldiers in Jiangbei City were making their final preparations. The atmosphere in Jiangbei City was tense before the war.
Ren Baqian was only in charge of the Rearguard Commandery and monitoring every move in the northern part of Tianjing Basin.
However, after the war, he wouldn't be able to be as idle as he was now.
The same went for the empress.
"Alright!" The empress nodded.
A moment later, the two of them appeared in Ren Baqian's room.
The empress went back to her room to change. Ren Baqian turned to look at the gloomy sky outside the window and remembered that another year was about to pass.
He picked up his phone to look at the date and was surprised to find that it was December 31st, the last day of 2019. After today, it would be 2020.
The first time he came to Dayao was in the summer of 2017.
More than two years had passed on Earth in such a short time, to the point that he was somewhat detached from the timeline on Earth.
Other than checking the news every time he came back to understand the current situation, almost all his thoughts were on that world.
After being in a daze for a while, Ren Baqian heard someone shouting outside the window.
He walked to the window and looked down, only to see a winged cavalry warrior practicing boxing on the ground outside.
There was originally a lawn, but it had already become a piece of soil that had been plowed hundreds of times. Just a handful of seeds could be used to grow vegetables.
The winged cavalry warrior's feet stepped on the soil, creating two deep ditches. When he stepped on the ground, the soil under his feet rushed up like water.
"Huh?" Ren Baqian looked at a person not far away who was clumsily imitating the winged cavalry warrior's movements.
"That tutor? What's his name … again? "Ren Baqian thought for a while but couldn't remember.
After looking out the window for a while, Ren Baqian heard footsteps heading downstairs and turned to open the door.
"Your Majesty!"
Ren Baqian walked to the top of the stairs and heard the voices downstairs. He said as he walked, "Call me big boss here."
He then asked, "What's the name of your teacher?"
"Bean Sprout!"
Ren Baqian was confused.
Was that his name?
"I saw him learning boxing outside?" Ren Baqian asked casually.
"That day, there was no more wine. After drinking with him, Yan Yong said that he would teach him a fist technique. However, it was not a fist technique from the army. It was from their stronghold. If Sir Ren feels that it's inappropriate … "The winged cavalry warrior scratched his head awkwardly and didn't continue speaking.
After all, he had already said it, so he couldn't go back on his word.
"So be it. Just remember what you can say and what you can't," Ren Baqian said as he walked over and sat beside the empress. He switched on the television to watch the news.
In the end, the moment the television was switched on, the empress snatched the remote control away and switched it to a television series.
"If an ordinary person were to learn the fist technique of our race, they would not be able to replenish their blood and qi after a long time. The faster they learn, the faster they die!" the Water Empress said coldly.
She naturally knew more about martial arts and the physical condition of ordinary people on Earth than these ordinary winged cavalry warriors.
"Ah?" The winged cavalry warriors were shocked. "Sir Ren, I'll ask them to stop right away."
They didn't have a bad impression of this bean sprout.
"There's no hurry." Ren Baqian stopped him. He first asked Duan Duan what they had learned over the past few days.
After listening, Ren Baqian was satisfied. This tutor came every day mainly to tell them about the news and answer their various questions.
This was better than the force-feeding method. At the very least, these winged cavalry warriors had learned a lot of basic knowledge.
Subsequently, one of them went out and called the other two back.
"Your Majesty!" The winged cavalry warrior in front cupped his fists and greeted the empress as soon as he returned.
"It's Big Boss!" Ren Baqian added.
"Go and do your own things," the empress said coldly. With so many people around, it was a little unsightly. In particular, that bastard in front was blocking the television.
"Mr. Ren." Ding Jie didn't see Ren Baqian when he came in. He first saw the lady in red on the sofa, and his heart immediately thumped. He didn't expect there to be such a beautiful person in this world. She was much more beautiful than those celebrities on TV. He didn't even hear what the others were saying.
Fortunately, he woke up very quickly. After all, the empress gave off a very cold vibe, and the majesty of her body made him feel a little afraid.
"You have done well these days," Ren Baqian praised.
"After all, you have to be worthy of my salary." Ding Jie smiled bashfully. This kind of praise was a very important affirmation to him.
Sometimes, when a big shot praised an ordinary person, that ordinary person would be happy for a few days.
To him, Ren Baqian was that big shot.
"Yan Yong said that I shouldn't be in charge of teaching you this boxing technique, but you don't have to learn it," Ren Baqian said while looking at Ding Jie's expression.
Ding Jie looked disappointed when he heard that. After all, he wanted to be like these people. Every boy had the dream of becoming a hero. However, Ren Baqian's words destroyed this path.
However, he also knew that he was already taking advantage of such a high salary. Therefore, after feeling disappointed, he quickly felt relieved.
Ren Baqian was satisfied when he saw his relieved expression. An idea popped up in his mind, and he asked, "Do you want to work for me?"
He also lacked a few people who could take care of everything on Earth. He didn't attach much importance to ability because he could find all kinds of capable people.
As long as he showed some interest, the nation would definitely find some people to work for him. These people were very capable, but they weren't his people.
He needed people who could listen to him and had nothing to do with the nation.
The little guy in front of him, whom he had found on the spur of the moment, seemed to have a simple temperament and could be used by him.
"Isn't it now?" Ding Jie didn't quite understand what he meant.
"From now on, you will always work for me. This includes when you are in university, after you graduate, and until you die, "Ren Baqian said faintly.
"Huh?" Ding Jie's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what he heard.
"My identity is a little special, so once you get on my boat, you can't get off. If you want to get off, you can only die. However, if you work for me, you can get what you want. Money, status, and how much you can get depends on your ability and how loyal you are, "Ren Baqian said faintly.
Ding Jie was a little confused. Ren Baqian's words were a little too distant for him.
Before today, he didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
"Mr. Ren …" Ding Jie was a little dumbfounded and didn't know how to continue speaking.
"You can go aside and think about it," Ren Baqian said.
Then, Ding Jie really went to the side to think about it.
Ren Baqian smiled and thought that this little guy was quite honest.
The empress glanced at Ding Jie and didn't see why this little guy was worth Ren Baqian's attention. She then continued to watch her television.
"Mr. Ren, why me?" Ding Jie ran over to ask Ren Baqian after a while. He felt that he wasn't outstanding and had only been a tutor a few times.
Although he didn't understand Ding Jie, he could tell that he was very rich.
Such a rich person could find any kind of person he wanted, right?
"Because your identity is clean," Ren Baqian looked at him and said. "A clean identity is the most important thing to me."
Ding Jie didn't understand what Ren Baqian meant and asked cautiously, "Will I break the law?"
"No! Don't forget my identity. I never break the law, "Ren Baqian said.
"But someone came to look for me a few days ago," Ding Jie whispered.
Ren Baqian's expression turned cold when he heard this. "Who was it? What did they say? "
Ding Jie then recounted what happened that day. At that time, he was just too stubborn and didn't say anything. The other party didn't make things too difficult for him. They only gave him their phone number and promised him some things. Of course, there were also threats.
After all, the other party was from the security department and Ding Jie was just an ordinary student from the countryside. They were confident that even if Ding Jie didn't agree, he wouldn't say anything. After all, he was just a tutor. They didn't expect Ding Jie to betray them.
After listening, Ren Baqian picked up the phone beside him and called Yang Sen. "Your people have crossed the line. My concessions are limited."
Yang Sen was a little confused on the other end of the phone. "What happened?"
Ren Baqian recounted the incident in a very cold voice and said, "Don't tell me that you don't know about this and that it was done by a temporary worker."
Since he made a deal with the nation, he had given a lot of things to the nation, but the nation had given him very little in return. The things that both parties had given had always been unequal. He didn't care about these things. After all, he had other requests.
Besides, he had been playing his part now. Other than Wang Zhi courting death, he hadn't caused any trouble.
Even so, there were still people who did this. This was simply challenging his tolerance.
"Mr. Ren, calm down first. I really don't know much about this matter. What do those two people look like? What are their names? What's their phone number? "Yang Sen was sweating a little. He could hear the anger in Ren Baqian's cold voice.
He didn't want to provoke this person.
Although he was backed by the nation, the other party had something that even the nation coveted. Furthermore, he also had a paradise behind him.
Putting everything else aside, as long as a group of experts came over, Shanghai would be in chaos.
Even if the nation could deal with them, many people would lose their lives and lose the opportunity to obtain things from them.
No one could bear the consequences of such a thing.
After asking Ding Jie, Ren Baqian told Yang Sen and said coldly, "You have to give me an explanation for this matter."
Then, he hung up the phone and sat there without saying a word. He wondered if Yang Sen really didn't know about this matter or if he was just pretending. Now, it all depended on what explanation he had to give.
Ding Jie shrank his head like a quail.
The cold aura of the person in front of him made him feel fear from the bottom of his heart.
After an hour, Yang Sen called back and said, "Mr. Ren, I have found them. They aren't my people. They were instructed by someone else. "
"Who?" Ren Baqian asked coldly.
"Mr. Ren, I can't tell you who is behind this. You can imagine some situations. There are always people who have their own ideas and do things that harm both parties. I'll report this matter to my superiors and give you an explanation. I promise that I will never do such a thing. "
Ren Baqian's expression softened a little and said, "I want to see an explanation and at least some sincerity. I also want to guarantee that such a thing won't happen again. Otherwise, I don't think I need to say more. At least for this period of time, our cooperation will be temporarily suspended. "
After speaking, Ren Baqian put down the phone.
In this world, there were always people who wouldn't shed tears until they saw the coffin.
If he didn't cut off this claw, another claw would reach out very quickly.
After a while, Ren Baqian looked at Ding Jie and said, "Well done. I can tell you that as long as you do your job, no one can do anything to you. What's your decision? "
Although Ding Jie didn't know what the person on the other side of the phone said, he could imagine it after listening to Ren Baqian's words. In addition, the power that Ren Baqian exuded when he spoke made Ding Jie's heart burn.
