Jiang Ning shook his head and looked at the Startling Salamander with a serious expression,""Startling Salamander, if I say that you are the best candidate in my heart, are you willing to help me establish this intelligence organization?”
" This…"
After a moment of hesitation, the Startling Salamander said,"General, Jingli is only willing to stay by your side as a personal guard. General, leave the intelligence organization to Zhang Han. Since General thinks that Zhang Han can do it, Jingli believes in General's judgment.”
"Hahaha!" Laughing loudly, Jiang Ning flung his sleeves and turned around to head towards the border city.
As they walked, Jiang Ning's faint voice entered the Startling Salamander's ears," It's alright, I have other plans for you!”
Hearing Jiang Ning's words, the Startling Salamander was a little confused.
But after a moment of silence, the Startling Salamander stopped thinking and followed Jiang Ning.
…………
A few days later.
It had been more than half a month since General Che and Zhao Gao left Border Town.
But now, Border City had completely changed in Jiangning's hands.
Jiangning had re-selected all the soldiers in the border town.
Excluding the elderly and the weak, there were only 8,000 soldiers left.
Adding on some auxiliary soldiers, the total number of soldiers that could be used in the entire border city was less than ten thousand, which was nearly double the previous ten thousand to twenty thousand.
Not only that, but Jiang Ning had also removed some of the troublesome generals who did not obey him and caused trouble from the border city army.
Meng Tian was appointed by Jiangning as his Deputy General, leading the Vanguard Battalion and a total of 3,000 Great Qin Cavalry.
Wang Ben would be Meng Tian's deputy general and commander.
As for the rest of the soldiers, they were all placed under Jiang Ning's command, with several generals as deputy generals.
However, this was not enough. Jiangning ordered the veterans who had been laid off to train the young men in Border Town and the areas under its jurisdiction.
Not only was there a military reform, but Jiangning had also undergone a major transformation in the border towns.
These were known as reserve troops by Jiangning.
All the streets in Border Town had been renovated, and the entire Border Town was brand new. It was completely different from the previous foul atmosphere.
In a corner of Border City, there was a large courtyard surrounded by tall walls.
This courtyard had become the most mysterious place in the entire Border Town, other than the office in Jiangning.
Jiang Ning ordered his soldiers to guard the surroundings of the courtyard.
Those who passed by the courtyard could often hear the sound of metal clanging.
At this moment, the sound of metal clanging could be heard from the courtyard again.
Jiang Ning, the lord of Border City, who was respected by the entire city, was in this courtyard.
Jiang Ning looked at the Gongshu family members who were working hard and some young men who Jiang Ning had specially selected. He was quite satisfied.
At this moment, the current leader of the Gongshu family, Gongshu Chou, was accompanying Jiang Ning.
Apart from the one-armed elder, the purple combat uniform and black scarf covered Startling Salamander followed closely behind Jiang Ning, protecting his safety at all times.
"Sir, our Gongshu family has already begun to research and manufacture that crossbow with all our strength. It is estimated that in three months, everyone in Border City will have a crossbow!”
Jiang Ning nodded after listening to Gongshu Chou's explanation." That's right. In that case, I'll have to trouble Old Master Gongshu.”
"It's not hard, it's not hard!" Gongshu Chou hurriedly shook his head.
"But…"
After hesitating for a moment, Gongshu Chou continued,"However, the crossbow is already being researched and forged. There are still many people in the Gongshu clan who have free time, so…"
At this point, Gongshu Chou glanced at Jiang Ning carefully.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Ning glanced at Gongshu Chou coldly. He naturally knew what Gongshu Chou meant.
This Gongshu Chou was asking for benefits from him!
What was the benefit? Naturally, it was the schematics of the mechanism technique!
However, Jiang Ning had only painted a cake to satisfy his hunger before. He did not have this blueprint.
He could only rely on that uncertain and unreliable system.
"Old Mister Gongshu, have you heard of an old saying? You can't bite off more than you can chew. Old Mister Gongshu, it's better to resolve this crossbow matter first before talking about the rest!”
As she spoke, Jiang Ning's gaze locked onto Gongshu Chou's. She did not feel guilty at all because of her previous actions.
Gongshu Chou did not dare to look at Jiang Ning when he was being scanned by her.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning also knew that he had to stop.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Ning looked at the model of the crossbow and asked Gongshu Chou,""Old Mister Gongshu, do you have a name for this crossbow?”
Taking a step forward, Gongshu Chou shook his head." Lord, since this crossbow was given to me by you, I naturally wouldn't dare to give it a name. Please give it a name."”
As he spoke, Gongshu Chou bowed.
"Hehe, since this crossbow was made by the Gongshu family, I'll call it the Gongshu Repeating Crossbow in the future!”
"This!"
Gongshu Chou was a little surprised. Although what Jiang Ning said was exactly what he hoped for, this came too suddenly.
Jiang Ning glanced at Gongshu Chou." Old Mister Gongshu, I've made my promise. Since I said it's called Gongshu Repeating Crossbow, then it will be called Gongshu Repeating Crossbow in the future!”
Seeing how determined Jiang Ning was, Gongshu Chou quickly bowed and said loudly,""Thank you, my lord!"
Jiang Ning pursed her lips slightly, feeling a little emotional.
The Hundred Schools of Philosophy were happy with these empty titles. In his opinion, what was the use of these empty titles? In the end, it was all for nothing.
However, since he could make Gongshu Chou give up on him with just a false reputation, it was worth it.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ning couldn't help but laugh.
"Ding! The system has issued a random mission!"
" System Mission: The host must defeat the Xiongnu Royal Court within a year!”
"Mission reward: After the host completes the mission, he will receive ten God-tier gift bags!”
At this moment, the system's electronic voice rang out in Jiang Ning's mind.
When Jiang Ning heard the system's latest mission, she was stunned.
