Reborn: Imperial Officer Promotion Guide

Goering couldn't believe that the deal had been made.

Was it Helheim who compromised, or was it Noor Ghana who gave in?

How could this be possible? This is simply unreal! No matter how you look at it, there is no reason why this could happen.

It went against Goering's logic and experience, and was as ridiculous as the sun rising in the west, and he could not accept it.

Moreover, the price was as low as 87.6 times. Goering had offered prices much higher than this time and again before. However, why was the deal concluded at such a low price?

Goering can say with certainty that this is absolutely, 100% impossible to become a reality!

“Impossible… Are you lying to me——————!?”

"Do I have any reason to come all the way here to lie to you? This is the official agreement we've reached."

Goering snatched the document from the other person's hand with a speed that was not in line with his age, stretched his neck straight, and read the words on it carefully.

His pupils trembled. "Why? Why? Why is it like this? I offered a price three hundred times higher! Despite this, Helheim is still unwilling to give in! What is going on?!"

"…Why…Yes, why? Why, as the Minister of Government Affairs, you failed to understand the deeper meaning of this."

"That's... because from the beginning, Helheim's goal was to take revenge on me! --That devil!"

"No, in fact, Hull's internal affairs official hopes that you can take the initiative to propose a price of 87.6 times. Otherwise, whether it is higher or lower than this price, this deal will not be possible."

"What do you mean?"

Goering had no idea, no, this guy must be lying.

The purpose of his doing this is just to show off. He wants to label himself as capable and he wants to step on me to get to the top. This guy must have planned all this with the devil Helheim a long time ago. It must be like this!

"...Minister Goering, as a minister of political affairs, do you really not know the meaning of this amount? You and Noor Ghana should be the ones who understand the meaning of this number the best."

"Don't be gloating here! You must have colluded with Helheim a long time ago! You are the one who planned all this behind the scenes! You despicable villain!"

Goering roared again and again, and Ganasde looked at him and sighed in disappointment.

"On the day Helheim arrived in East Territory, he proposed two policy proposals - relief for the people and improvement of transportation routes. There are clear cost calculations in these two policy proposals. If we convert them, the cost required to implement these two policies is exactly the same as 87.6 times the figure... Do you think this is just a coincidence?"

"..."

"The so-called political officials will inject their own true thoughts into the figures they propose. I guess he intends to use this money to promote the revival of East Territory. Therefore, whether it is 300 times or 600 times, as long as it exceeds this price or is lower than this price, he will not agree. Otherwise, he will be confirmed to be taking advantage of the war to make money and be labeled as greedy. Even his just act of paying out of his own pocket to help the people will be maliciously speculated by people with ulterior motives, causing a storm of public opinion."

"……impossible."

Goering felt like his head was about to explode. It was absolutely impossible...that devil must be trying to gain some profit from this!

"Not only can he get the money needed for the next implementation plan, but by showing his selflessness with 86.7 times the amount, he will also be recognized afterwards. After knowing this, not only will they not bother him, but they will also think that he is an excellent general who is willing to act for the people and the prosperity of the territory. In this way, the evaluation of him by the superiors will also rise, and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted."

"No! Absolutely not! He is targeting me! He is framing me!"

"Frame you? What's the point of him doing this? Or, let me change the question, are you really that important to him?"

"..."

"I don't deny that you are a pawn, and you are behind the scenes with Nur Gana Governor-General. Without your approval, it would be impossible to provide relief to the people or improve the transportation routes. You might even hinder him behind the scenes. But are you really that important? Without you, it would be impossible to accomplish these things. - The answer is no. Do you know why Helheim agreed to the price I offered? ... Because he has figured it out."

"Which ones are the pillars that support the great tree of the empire, and which ones are the pests that erode the country!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Goering was furious. "What does a low-level civil servant know? We are responsible for the prosperity of the empire! He is just a villain who is greedy for wealth and power!"

Ganasde sighed heavily.

"One day, people like you will be kicked out of the core circle of the Empire's rule, and the entire era will change. I have foreseen the storm that the Empire will face after the appearance of Helheim."

“…Ganasde! No matter what, you are the Minister of Resources! Why do you lower yourself to speak for a lower-level government official? Don’t you have the self-respect of a superior?!”

"Hmph... boring...! I didn't come to East Territory just to play friendly games with you guys!" Ganasde didn't even look at Goering. "How can the empire prosper again if I'm with guys like you who only know how to use power and status to oppress others? I should say goodbye now. Although the time is short, I still appreciate your care these days. I have a piece of advice for you - you should worry about yourself. Nur Gana is already preparing to settle accounts with you."

After saying this, Ganasde strode out of the prison.

By noon the next day, working with several transportation officers, Hull had prepared all the supplies.

Watching the transport team set off in a mighty procession, one of the transport officers muttered to himself, "I can't believe it...it usually takes at least three days."

It took less than a day from loading to departure, and several shipping officers looked at Hull in astonishment.

"Because I have already ordered people to prepare for the handover of supplies. Oster Territory is a battlefield. We can't let the entire front collapse because of our procrastination in the rear, right?"

Hull smiled, and several transport officers lowered their heads at the same time.

"Um... I'm really sorry for causing so much trouble to everyone this time because of the matter of our department's Director Gais."

"Ah... Are you talking about Minister Gus's corruption?"

"Yeah... No one would have thought that such a serious person... would cause such a big trouble." One of the transport officers muttered to himself.

"What kind of person is Minister Gass?"

"Minister Gass has always been the backbone of our Ministry of Transport. His professional ability is impeccable. Without him, the entire Ministry of Transport would not be able to function properly."

"I see...it seems he is indeed a capable transport officer." Hull muttered.

"It doesn't look like you're that short of money, so how could you do something as ugly as this?"

"No, I heard that he owes a lot of debts outside."

"Rumor has it that he spent a lot of money in nightclubs and entertainment parlors."

"Ah...it seems his personal life is really terrible."

The idle transport officers were exchanging gossips with each other.

Hull didn't say anything, but just stood there and kept smiling.

"I'm so sorry. We've started chatting among ourselves. We sincerely apologize for the damage caused by our department. Thanks to the Helheim Administrative Officer, the situation didn't get out of hand. He really helped a lot!"

The senior transport officer in the lead bowed solemnly to Hull to express his gratitude.

"It doesn't matter. We are all working for the prosperity of East County. When we encounter difficulties, we should work together and help each other. Well, the work here should be concluded, and the rest is left to you, okay?"

"Of course, you've worked hard today!"

Hull nodded with a smile, then returned to his room in the city.

"call……"

Sure enough, being alone and quiet is the best way to relax your body and mind.

Without Mosbia in the room, even the stress disappeared, it was so comfortable.

Just as Hull picked up a document to read, More Bandes walked into Hull's room with a document.

"You've worked hard today."

"Ah."

Hull looked at the documents in Secretary Edmund's hand, feeling both surprised and unsurprised.

Without much greeting, he just waved his hand and let More Bandes come closer.

Helheim frowned, which was rare, after reading half of the document submitted by Mor Bandes.

“This is a really strange report.”
