Chapter 571: Starting Work

EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Seeing Wang Mang’s hypocritical expression, he was frustrated, and honestly had the urge to strangle Wang Mang to death.

This fellow’s ability to lie through his teeth was too much!

Wang Mang had just beaten him up, yet turned around the very next second and called him brother!

Heavens! How could there be such a shameless person?

At this moment, Yang Wei was so angry that his face turned ashen. He had an inexplicable impulse to raise his fist and smash Wang Mang’s disgusting face.

Of course, Yang Wei was well aware that he was no match for Wang Mang head-on. Ugh…

“That’s right!”

“After all, we’re all colleagues. It’s better to have fewer enemies and more friends. Besides, it’s just a small problem.”

At this moment, Li Jian quickly went forward and smiled to ease the tension between the two parties.

He could tell that Yang Wei was fuming, and knew that if he did not intervene, the situation might spiral into conflict. If that happened, he would be in trouble as well.

“What? Could it be that you are angry with me, Brother?”

Seeing Yang Wei’s stiff expression and resentful gaze, Wang Mang’s tone became a little gloomy.

Yang Wei shuddered when he heard this, and squeezed out a smile and said, “No! We’ll leave the matter at that.”

Wang Mang nodded in satisfaction. “That’s great. Come, come. Let’s have a discussion and divide the power today.”

“Brothers, explain the job scope of a promotion officer to me. The more specific, the better.”

After saying that, Wang Mang smiled and sat back down. Li Jian and Yang Wei also sat down unwillingly.

Then, after a series of explanations, Wang Mang gained a better understanding of his position and the processes involved.

The position of the promotion officer was to choose and approve the personnel appointments.

The higher-ups would announce the total number of vacant positions.

For example, if there were 10 vacant positions, the silver-armored generals and golden-armored generals would send their men to submit applications for the positions.

To put it bluntly, there was more demand than supply, and the competition for each vacant position was fierce.

“In the past, how many people were assigned to a position every day?”

Wang Mang asked after pondering for a moment.

Hearing this, Li Jian hesitated and said, “Brother, the quota is not fixed every day.”

“Sometimes it’s a lot, sometimes it’s very little. At most, there are close to 12 spots, while at the minimum, there are at least two or three spots per day.”

“Of course, if there is going to be a war, or if a war has just concluded, this number will spike significantly.”

“Sometimes, there are even cultivators from the mortal world who come to the Heavenly Court to join the army.”

“Our task is to make reasonable arrangements.”

After hearing this, Wang Mang nodded to himself.

“Good! From tomorrow onward, 1 will enter the military camp. At that time, please don’t make things difficult for me!”

“I have a bad temper, so you’ll have to forgive me if 1 accidentally lose my temper.”

At this point, Wang Mang had a faint smile on his face.

Hearing this, Li Jian nodded with a smile and vowed, “Since we have already reconciled, 1 naturally won’t make things difficult for you, Brother. In the future, the spots will be divided equally!”

“As for today’s appointment approval, I hope brother won’t make things difficult for us!”

As he spoke, Li Jian had already taken out the appointment document that he had prepared earlier.

Looking at the approval document Li Jian handed over, Wang Mang smiled and said, “Brothers, you must have received a lot of good things for this appointment, right?”

“I won’t bother about such small benefits, but remember me next time.”

With that, Wang Mang took out a brush and signed his name on a few official documents.

Then, he took out the official seal exclusive to promotion officers and sealed it.

Seeing this scene, Li Jian heaved a sigh of relief and put away the appointment document before smiling.

“Brother, we won’t disturb you anymore. See you at the military camp tomorrow.”

Wang Mang smiled and nodded enthusiastically as he sent the two of them out of the manor.

When Wang Mang returned, the two soldiers who had become his subordinates, and who he had affectionately nicknamed Big Head and Small Head, said happily, “Milord, congratulations! You’re now a promotion offer with real power, and there will only be more benefits to come in the future.”

After hearing their conversation, Wang Mang was in a good mood and chuckled.

“It seems that this position is indeed one of the most lucrative positions in the entire military camp…”

Upon hearing this, Big Head could not help but say enviously, “Milord, that’s indeed the case. In the entire military camp, there are four positions with great benefits, and the one with the most benefits is the promotion officer.”

“The others are the officers in charge of military merit, military discipline, and military prison.”

After hearing the words of the two guards, Wang Mang fell into deep thought. It seemed that he had really lucked out this time. If the benefits were truly as great as they made it out to be, then he would be able to increase his strength quickly.

Hence, early the next morning, Wang Mang happily arrived at the military camp, and was surprised to find that many people were already waiting outside.

There were soldiers, silver-armored low-to-high-rank generals, and even some low-rank golden-armored generals.

When they saw him, they displayed envious gazes and enthusiastic smiles, which satisfied Wang Mang’s need for vanity and superiority.

After entering the military appointment tent, Wang Mang sat in his assigned position. The other two spots had already been occupied by Li Jian and Yang Wei, who had arrived earlier than him.

Upon seeing Wang Mang, Li Jian chuckled as he walked up to him.

“Brother, there are a total of nine appointments today.”

“Three small-team captains, one large-team captain, two centurions, and three ten-thousand-man commander positions.”

“This is how I plan to distribute it.”

“Younger brother, you can take one ten-thousand-man commander position, one large-team captain position, and one small-team captain position.”

“If we encounter such a situation again, how about we take turns getting a smaller quota?”

The three positions of the captains were just enough to be evenly distributed, but there were only two centurion positions, so it was not easy to divide them.

However, Wang Mang was not willing to take the smaller quota.

Therefore, he immediately looked displeased and snorted coldly.

“You guys took all of the positions over the past two days, and now you want me to take the smaller quota?”

“This is impossible! It’s already good enough that 1 didn’t ask for all of the positions today as compensation!”

“It’s better for the two of you to discuss and see who will take the smaller quota.”

At this point, Wang Mang took the opportunity to ask for an exorbitant quota.

“How about this? I’ll reluctantly take the three ten-thousand-man commander positions, and the rest will be given to you both..”
