455 Im in charge of fighting(2/2)

But Luo Guanlin was more worried: "It is not easy to accomplish this. Your Majesty's move will be more or less obstructed and opposed by state officials and local powerful people."

The existence of many old systems has clearly shown many rotten shortcomings, but they still have many supporters. The reason is for no other reason than to benefit you.

Even leaving aside these beneficiaries: "In today's current situation, there are very few people who can calm down and do practical things... More people just take advantage of the chaos to accumulate capital to protect themselves or get a share of the pie. In their eyes, there is no such thing as

Without people, there is no country."

"In the twelve states of Huainan Road outside Jiangdu alone, there are at least five states. Although they have not really rebelled, they have become places where the imperial decrees are blocked."

The words of the imperial court were ignored, and even the governors appointed by the imperial court were not necessarily accepted by them.

"If you can't get through them, get through them one by one." Chang Suining said arrogant words in a very casual tone: "Sir, don't forget, I started my career by fighting."

A small part of Huainan Road was no longer under the control of the imperial court. The emperor chose her to be the governor, not necessarily because he wanted to use her to curb the chaos.

But as long as it is beneficial to herself and what she wants to do, she will do it.

"I'm responsible for the fight." Chang Sui Ning poured himself another tea and paid homage to Luo Guanlin again: "Sir, I'm responsible for what happens after the fight."

Listening to her joking division of labor, Luo Guanlin didn't comment, but he also picked up the wine cup and drank it all again.

"By the way, come tonight, I have one more thing to give to sir."

Chang Suining suddenly remembered, bent down and picked up a box next to the food box, put it on the stone table, and pushed it in front of Luo Guanlin.

Luo Guanlin opened it and saw that inside was a stack of silver notes with several gold pages pressed on them.

Luo Guanlin subconsciously asked: "What is the use of this money?"

"Of course it's sir's salary." Chang Sui Ning said.

Except for the most difficult months at the beginning, Jiangdu never defaulted on officials' salary arrears and paid them monthly. However, Yao Ran told Chang Sui Ning that every time Luo Guanlin accepted it in person, he would send it back to Yao Ran in private afterwards.

Not to mention that his salary was not that much at all. To put it simply, Luo Guanlin had no intention of accepting it: "I am different from others. Since I have a three-year contract, I don't need these."

In addition, she provided enough food and accommodation for his family in the Governor's Mansion.

"Sir, you want me to use you for free." Chang Sui Ning said, "I don't have the habit of using people for free."

She said: "I know that Mr. Jiang feels guilty and wants to make up for it, but that is a matter between Mr. Jiang and Mr. Jiang, not between me and him."

Luo Guanlin was silent for a moment. He knew that although Chang Sui Ning was very purposeful, he was not a stingy person, whether it was towards civilians or his officials.

Not only is she not stingy with money, she is also not stingy with the distribution of power. This is why many officials are willing to be driven by her even though they were initially dissatisfied with her.

"Besides, I'm not short of money now." Chang Sui Ning said with a smile, "Sir, I am not a person who is unkind just to get rich."

Luo Guanlin glanced at her: "Luo didn't see how rich you are."

She had just received a reward, and the unidentified "friend" came to her doorstep with money. She may indeed have some money left in her hands now, but the workshop has not yet recovered its capital, and money needs to be spent everywhere.

"Sir, you don't have to worry about money." Chang Suining said confidently, "I have many ways to make money."

Luo Guanlin only thought that she meant that all the finances of the Thirteen Prefectures were in her hands, and snorted: "Your Majesty's words sound like a corrupt official."

Chang Sui Ning nodded in agreement: "I also think I have the potential to be a corrupt official."
