Chapter 15: The First Corrupt Official
Since ancient dynasties, there have been officials. If there are clean officials, there are corrupt officials, and these two things appear at the same time.
Without corrupt officials, there will be no clean officials, just as without bad people, no one will know the existence of good people. No matter how shrewd the emperor controls the dynasty, the problem of corrupt officials cannot be effectively solved. Sometimes corrupt officials are more popular with the emperor than those clean officials. The reason is very simple. Corrupt officials are only loyal to the emperor, while clean officials are loyal to the whole country.
You can think so if an emperor does something wrong. The great Qing official may have rebelled for the people of some country, with the prestige of his Qing official. Nothing can be done, but corrupt officials are different. There is no prestige, but it has real power and absolute loyalty to an emperor. If you change an emperor and distrust yourself, it will be your own death.
Hilya, the biggest corrupt official in the empire. The status in the dynasty is very high. It can be said that the military affairs of the whole defeated empire have to be handled by his hands. Only General Villa can resist it in the court. General Villa holds heavy troops and has a very high prestige in the army and the people. It has always been the object of the emperor's suspicion.
Therefore, Hilya was also deeply trusted by the emperor and became more and bolder. Ben didn't pay attention to anyone, and the fight with General Vera never stopped, whether in or under the court. This time, the Villa family's three-month large-scale auction was in trouble. Hilya was so happy. I made a special trip to see the bustle. I didn't expect to meet Lin Tian.
Lin Tian retreated from the auction house, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Nia was caught as a slave, and there was nothing she could do as a brother. Slave magic, Lin Tian is not a magician. There is no way to crack the bullshit magic, so it's useless to save Nya.
"Make way, Lord Hilya's carriage dares to block it. What about you, that blind man, get out of the way quickly. The groom shouted and scolded, but Lin Tian didn't hear it clearly. Now my head is in a mess, and I'm not in the mood to take care of the outside world. Lin Tian thought of Delis and thought that if she was there, she would definitely think of a solution.
A sharp scolding "get out of the way" woke up Lin Tian. The carriage was bumping into him head-on, and Lin Tian jumped up and dodged away. Then he kicked angrily on the horse's stomach, and the horse was kicked and overturned on the spot. The carriage also fell down, and of course, the people inside rolled several times on the ground before stopping.
More than ten waiters pulled out their giant swords and rushed over. While killing Lin Tian, they shouted to catch the assassin. Make Lin Tian speechless.
To be honest, these guards are not weak, but they met Lin Tian. Lin Tian walked between him and these guards, and there was no killer. Instead, he just wanted to play with them to vent, which was seen by Hilya.
Hilya, a corrupt official of the defeated empire, was supported by two bodyguards. It seems that Lin Tian's game usually travels between several bodyguards. He stopped all the guards and asked loudly, "Do you dare to ask this hero's name?"
"Bindeed Swordsman." Lin Tian smiled and swept away the bodyguard in front of him. Slowly approach Hilya.
"It turns out that you are a blind swordsman in the auction house. Have you heard of it for a long time? Are you interested in going to the restaurant for a drink? Maybe I can help you with anything?" Hilya made a generous invitation, and Lin Tian looked at Hilya a few times. It's just that this person is dressed in gorgeous clothes, and his clothes and drinks are very expensive. You can't take down his clothes without tens of thousands of gold coins. He seems to be a rich man.
Lin Tian suddenly thought of a way to save Nia, and the guy in front of him was a rich man. If you use his money to buy Nia, then the slave magic will fall into his own hands. Then you will have enough time to find a way to break this magic.
After thinking about it, Lin Tian nodded in agreement. Hilya warmly invited Lin Tian to the top floor of the hotel, where it was a symbol of money and power. After sitting down, Hilya asked Xiao Er to bring up all the delicious food. Then he called all the guards back and picked up the glass and poured the wine for Lin Tian in person.
"B blind swordsman, I sent someone to check you. You are Lin Tian!" Hilya sat down and looked at the black cloth covered by Lin Tian's eyes. Some curious questions
"Oh, I'm just blind now!" Lin Tian smiled bitterly and drank all the glasses in one gulp. The degree of alcohol in this different world is not very high, such as Lin Tian, who grew up drinking high alcohol in modern times. It's no different from drinking hundreds of water.
"I'm curious about what kind of person's strength in the previous holy level can seriously hurt you like this?" Hilya stood up and asked
"There are mountains outside the mountain. Even gods have enemies of gods, not to mention our generation of people." Lin Tian drank all the wine in the glass and made it deep and strong. Slowly say
"Ha ha, come and drink." Hilya helped Lin Tian pour the wine again and asked, "I heard that Nia auctioned by the Vera family is your sister. How are you going to save her?"
"I'm also worried about this? Shit," Lin Tian stood up and scolded strictly: "If anyone can help me save Nia, I will call her mother, and I will recognize him as my father." Lin Tian began to speak for help.
"Really?" When Hilya heard Lin Tian say this, she spit out a mouthful of wine and looked at Lin Tian, "Then I will recognize your god son!" Hahaha."
"Oh, if you have a way to help me. What's the imitation of you as a father?" Lin Tian replied with a smile, but in fact, he was very dissatisfied. The old guy in front of him dared to take advantage of himself, if he didn't ask for him. Lin Tian was afraid that he had been killed for a long time.
,,,,,, evil dividing line,,,,,
At the auction, Lin Tian was destroyed three days ago. Three days later, the Villa family reopened the auction house. Lin Tian took the invitation and entered the VIP room on the third floor of the auction house with Hilya. Here you can clearly see the injury in the hall, which is a very good angle.
There are a lot of things auctioned, first with some small things. Then there are weapons, skills, armor, and books, calligraphy and paintings.
"Now please issue the 18th auction item, Magic Swordsman Nia. I believe everyone has heard that the magic swordsman who is close to the holy level and the absolute beauty virgin. If I can get her, I will be willing to live ten years less. Now the auction starts at 10 million gold coins, and the price should not be less than 1 million gold coins at a time. The host still smiled, and Lin Tian resisted his anger. If it weren't for the bullshit slave magic on Niya, Lin Tian might have washed the blood here.
Most auctioned his sister as a commodity, and Lin Tian was ready to send a death invitation to the Vera family.
"40 million gold coins" Lin Tian stood up and shouted
"The man in the No. 5 suitcase offered 40 million gold coins. Is there anything higher? Is there a higher bid?" The host looked over and immediately recognized that it was Lin Tian. The image given to him three days ago is not small and memorable. 40 million for the first time.
"50 million." A voice came out desperately, and Lin Tian's murderous spirit burst out. Hilya was overwhelmed until Hilya called for help. 60 million." Lin Tian rose another 10 million, and Hilya was shocked. Although I still have this little money, no one will be better if I lose 60 million at once.
"Thirty million."
"The third prince bid 70 million, and there is anything higher. There is a higher one, 70 million once, 70 million twice." The host's voice, Lin Tian looked at the third prince. Seeing that he was nodding to greet himself with a smile, Lin Tian was angry: "80 million."
"What?" Hilya quit, "80 million is the sharp harvest of the whole defeated empire for half a year, and you spent it like this."
"Don't worry, old man. If you can't shoot Nia today, I will wash this place with blood, 100 million gold coins." Lin Tian roared loudly, and everyone was shocked. Hilya fainted directly and shook her hands and feet. As if crazy, the third prince shook his head and sat down. Naturally, Lin Tian bought Nia with the value of 100 million gold coins.
Soon, the people at the auction took out Nia and the slave finger. He took Hilya's gold card with a smile. With a flash of white light, Hilya lost a whole 100 million gold coins. The people at the auction house retreated with a smile. They didn't know that they had just passed by death.
