Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

Yang Ming was very satisfied with today's result. Not only did he successfully gain the highest authority in the Manjin branch, but he also suppressed the other two deputy ministers.

Although he is only the acting minister now, with his current popularity and strength, is he still far from becoming the official minister?

As for Gotu and Mu, although Yang Ming always felt that these two people were a hidden danger, but considering that he had just killed Wuli Yannan, if he killed all the senior executives of the Manjin branch at once, it would definitely arouse Bixias' suspicion, so he decided to wait for a while.

Anyway, the other party has no ability to threaten me now, so I can find an opportunity to "deal with" them later. Of course, if the other party knows the situation, I can save my energy in this regard. After all, these two people are not like Wuliyan, who has irreconcilable conflicts with me.

In short, in just a few days, Yang Ming has achieved his predetermined goal. The next step is to use the power of acting branch director to continue to strengthen his strength.

Just as Yang Ming was walking towards his room while dreaming about a bright future, a young woman in professional attire came towards him.

"It's you?" Yang Ming was a little surprised. The person who came was none other than Wu Liyan's former secretary Lingyin.

As the only person who knew the inside story besides Yang Ming, Lingyin actually had several opportunities to ruin Yang Ming's plan, but she chose to remain silent from beginning to end, which surprised Yang Ming.

"Deputy Minister Yang, no, the new minister, I have something to tell you." Lingyin said cautiously.

"You don't have to be so afraid of me. Just speak. I will listen to my subordinates' opinions patiently." Yang Ming smiled kindly and motioned for her to relax.

"Minister, you also know that I used to be... the former minister's man," Lingyin said in a low voice while choosing her words, "As you know, all of us have received favors from the former minister, so at that time we all supported the former minister out of our stance."

"But there aren't many people who are close to the former minister and know his ideas, so the vast majority of us are not involved in his plans."

"At least you are an insider, right?" Yang Ming said lightly.

Lingyin lowered her head slightly, acquiescing to this, but then continued speaking.

"But I can guarantee that the others have no hostility towards you, Minister, and they don't know the truth behind the matter. Minister, you can use these people without any worries and bring them under your command."

After hearing this, Yang Ming finally understood why she came.

Although Buriyannan died, he still left behind a large number of forces and followers in the branch.

With the death of Wuliyan, these followers have lost their backers and their lives will become very difficult. Because of the previous team-standing issue, they will be suppressed and retaliated by the other two deputy ministers.

That's why Lingyin represented these people to come and join Yang Ming. After all, as the new leader of the Manjin branch, Yang Ming is not only powerful but also young, and his future prospects are limitless.

The most important thing is that Yang Ming has just come to power and is short of manpower. It is beneficial to both parties if these people join Yang Ming's team.

"Your idea is good, I am very satisfied with it," Yang Ming nodded, "but in this case, one person is necessary."

His tone suddenly turned cold and he moved closer to Lingyin step by step.

"I can't help it. Who told you to know too many things you shouldn't know?"

"In fact, before coming here, Suzune had already prepared for death," Suzune closed her eyes, but her body did not take a step back. "The former minister was very kind to Suzune, but Suzune did not have the ability to avenge him. All she could do was to find a way out for him and his subordinates."

"Now that Minister Yang has accepted them despite past grudges, Lingyin has no regrets. It's time to meet the former minister."

Then she stopped talking and closed her eyes, as if waiting to die.

Yang Ming's dagger stayed at Lingyin's neck, but he finally took it back.

"I was just joking with you," Yang Ming retracted the dagger and turned away. "I'm tired today. You can discuss the specific work with my adjutant. He can fully represent me."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

"What a smart woman..." Yang Ming sighed.

From the conversation just now, it seemed that Lingyin was arranging a retreat for the remaining forces of Buriyanan, but in fact, it was Lingyin herself who was submitting her loyalty to Yang Ming.

Lingyin used practical actions to tell Yang Ming that she could not only convince others to join them, but also keep the secret for him.

And most importantly, she will be loyal to Yang Ming just like she was to Buri Yanan before.

Although Yang Ming felt that Lingyin's approach was a bit cruel, he also understood her situation. After all, if it were him, he would probably make the same decision as her.

Moreover, Lingyin's behavior of joining Yang Ming can only be regarded as a change of boss in a strict sense, and it cannot be regarded as betrayal. When Wuliyan was alive, Lingyin was devoted to him, and now she has only changed her loyalty to Yang Ming.

"Although this is a bit cruel, for a weak woman with no power in troubled times, she actually has no choice."

When Yang Ming returned to his room, he saw Feng Lu occupying his bed again, and he couldn't help but laugh and cry.

"I clearly arranged a separate room for her...why does she keep coming to my side..."

After carefully covering her with the quilt, Yang Ming could only find a recliner and fall asleep.

After becoming acting minister, Yang Ming immediately began to use his new power.

As the branch chief of Manjin City, he has the right to promote and punish members of his team. As long as the person to be promoted is below the elite, he can promote him directly without applying to his superiors.

Yang Ming decisively used this authority to promote his confidant Tokugawa twice, making him a level four member directly.

"Boss, this won't work." Seeing his position rising like a rocket, Tokugawa was a little overwhelmed. "I've only been in the Rocket Team for a year. I'm afraid it's not a good idea to be promoted so quickly."

"What's the big deal? If I say you can be promoted, who dares to say no?" Yang Ming said nonchalantly, "Besides, it's not that difficult to be promoted to level 4 in one year. It only took me one year to become the branch director. Do you think they dare to tell me what to do?"

Tokugawa was speechless for a while. After all, the officer in front of him was the one who was promoted the fastest.

"Okay, since I'm promoting you, you should make good use of the resources after the promotion to strengthen yourself. In this chaotic world, only strength and power are the hard truth."

Not only Tokugawa, but also some other people who had made contributions in Leibo Mountain, Yang Ming did not treat them unfairly and promoted them to a certain extent. And for those who died in the battle of Leibo Mountain, Yang Ming was also generous in providing pensions.

After all, Yang Ming has always been very generous to those who are loyal to him.
