Survival of the Beasts: Awakening the Beast Taming System at the Beginning

"I don't think so!"

...

The Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts.

At this time, a middle-aged man began to push some fat and big-eared people into the river, and these people knelt down and begged for mercy.

Bai Hanchen snorted coldly: "It's useless even if the emperor comes to plead for you today. Listen to me honestly, otherwise I will make you look good."

"What if I plead for them?"

After hearing what the Lord of the Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts said, Bai Hanchen's eyes were obviously a little confused, but the Lord of the Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts didn't ask him to look up, so he naturally didn't dare to look up.

The Lord of the Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts looked around and just waved his hand casually: "No need to be polite, stand up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After hearing what the Lord of the Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts just said, these gentry, wealthy people, and officials were full of joy on their faces. They looked so arrogant that they wished they could even skip the ceremony of kneeling.

"Your Majesty, please think twice. They were wrong this time. If Your Majesty still pleads for them, it will only chill the hearts of the people of the world!"

The common people here never thought that Bai Hanchen would dare to contradict the emperor. This can be regarded as risking his life to make a suggestion.

After hearing what Bai Hanchen said, the people's good impression of Bai Hanchen doubled.

Everyone thought that the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire would be angry. After all, in front of the world, someone dared to go against his will and confront him. No emperor in the past dynasties would allow anyone to do this.

But at this time, the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire just smiled and shook his head: "Do you understand the path that Confucius pursued?"

"Of course I understand, teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and teach everyone! If a court official does not know the words and deeds of Confucius, it would be a joke, but I don't understand, what does this have to do with this matter?"

The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire smiled and shook his head: "Confucius believes that there are differences between people, why don't you understand the differences between people? These wealthy merchants and court officials, if they are forced to go into the water, I am afraid they can only delay the rescue of them!"

After hearing what the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire said, these wealthy merchants, as well as the relatives of these officials, were all excited.

"Your Majesty is right. We really can't do such rough work!"

After seeing this, He Shuhuan's eyes were full of confusion. At this moment, he thought in his heart: "Your Majesty is not such a foolish person, but why did he do such a foolish thing this time? What will happen?"

However, He Shuhuan also understood that the current emperor made him more and more confused.

And the people around here, after hearing what the Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire said, their eyes were obviously a little dim.

The corners of the Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire's mouth were raised with a bit of evil smile.

"Yes, they are not good at repairing in this flood, but there is one thing they are very good at!"

"May I ask your Majesty, in addition to plundering the people's fat and blood, I really don't know what else they can be good at!"

"They have silver!"

The Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire gently spit out four words from his mouth.

The wealthy merchants, the gentry, and the officials all looked ugly after hearing what the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire said.

"Your Majesty, didn't we donate before?"

A fat, oily-faced merchant said weakly from a distance.

The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire slowly walked in front of him.

"Your silk is good, you must have made a lot of money over the years!"

The man shook his head like a wave drum, waving his hands continuously: "No, no, no, Your Majesty is just making a big joke. My silk business has been declining over the years. Silk can't be spun at all. Many stores have even closed down. Please understand!"

The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire nodded gently, and then looked at Zhu Qi.

Zhu Qi instantly understood what the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire meant. He walked in front of the man and threw him into the water.

The man struggled in the water for a few times and then floated up.

"One hundred thousand taels of silver, plus a thousand stones of grain, can keep a person from going into the water. Those who can't take it out can do as the caregiver said, and those who can take it out can go home to eat, drink and rest well. This way it will be very good!"

After hearing what the Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire said, the common people and Bai Hanchen were full of excitement.

Before the disaster, money and grain are the most important. The Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire certainly understands this truth. One more tael of silver may even save a person's life.

"He is indeed a wise ruler of the time!"

"Thank you, thank you emperor!"

"Thank you emperor!"

The people actually knelt on the ground one after another.

The Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire looked up, and two lines of tears passed through the corners of his eyes.

"You are all my people. Of course I have to think about you. Why do you need to do this?"

He Shuhuan nodded one after another. Of course he knew one thing. If these wealthy merchants had a good talk with them, they would definitely not take out the money. In fact, it proved that what the leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Empire did was indeed right. As long as you force them, the money will be like the water in the sponge, there will always be some squeeze.

None of these wealthy merchants and officials were willing to get into the water. Even the fat man from before struggled to climb up and paid the first portion of money.

In just half a day, they once again collected 30 million taels of silver and 300,000 shi of food for disaster relief.

Bai Hanchen looked at the mountain of food in front of him, and two lines of tears flashed in his eyes.

"Your Majesty is wise. With these literati and so much food, the people in the disaster area can be saved. On behalf of the people in the disaster area, I kneel down to thank our Lord for his great kindness!"

The Lord of the Beast Empire helped Bai Hanchen up.

"These are all my people, so why do I need to call you like this? However, the construction of water conservancy projects is imminent. This time I call you, not just to preside over disaster relief, but to think of a solution that can be solved once and for all. This method will not only cure this flood, but also eliminate future troubles. Do you have confidence?"

Bai Hanchen had a look of danger on his face. Although he was an upright official and could maintain his integrity without corruption or bribery, he knew very well that there were specialties in this profession and he was not good at it at all.
