282 Bribe the court
Following Lin Mo's guidance, Lord Adelaide, the highest leader of the Imperial Army, held a mechanical clock, and while learning to turn on the clock, calibrate the time and set the alarm, he said with emotion: "This magical thing reminds me of the old servant Hudson who has been watching me for the night. Poor Hudson, if he had this thing, he would have been able to have a good night's sleep every day and not have to turn it around every day and night, and help me keep up with the time to get up."
Although he had already developed a stable biological clock in his long military career, Adelaide did not fully trust his biological clock. There are always exceptions in everything. He was unwilling to delay major events because of oversleeping.
Therefore, there was a dedicated old servant who was responsible for the night watch, and he woke him from the bed at about the same time every morning.
If this timer mechanical clock was really as accurate as Lin Mo said, he could sleep more peacefully and allow a poor old servant to return to his normal routine.
"Well, Lord Adelaide, you can use it first. If you have any questions, you can come to me! You don't have to ask me for money, this mechanical clock will be given to you."
The free delivery of mechanical clocks is limited to a few ministers. Lin Moman's method of selling mechanical clocks was given by Qi Fei in person, and he gave them directly in person, and provided them with them.
But he didn't mention a single gold coin. This method of retreating to advance made these ministers feel embarrassed to take it for nothing. This is related to the face issue. There is really no need to laugh at it for hundreds of gold coins.
Although it was not mentioned in person, after the court dispersal, most of the servants would be sent to No. 78 Nuoxiang Street.
Although it is possible to give a rich premium for face, it is more likely to give Qi Fei's idea only makes money and not lose money.
A mechanical clock was picked up by Lin Mo from the talent space of the Silver Dragon Egg and sent to the ministers. It was still very interesting to watch the timing tool that was so accurate that it was so instantly tick.
"What is this guy doing?"
The face of the Civil Affairs Secretary Harrison, who was completely ignored, became particularly ugly.
The Minister of Military Affairs, Finance and Justice were given a delicate and beautiful mechanical clock, but he was empty-handed. The royal guard didn't even look at him and had no intention of coming over, which made Harrison feel a little unable to get out of the stage. He could notice that some officials quietly cast strange eyes.
Leng was a tit-for-tat thing and did not say anything, nor did he show any provocation or contempt, but he made the Minister of Civil Affairs feel like he was slapped in the back, feeling like he was slapped in the face.
How annoying this is!
Lin Mo had long seen that the father and son Harrison and Grande were purely ungrateful. Even if he gave him a hundred mechanical clocks for free, the other party would not receive any affection. He would even turn his back on his face and repay his kindness with grudges.
"So lively!"
His Majesty the Emperor entered the Political Affairs Hall and saw the scattered formation in the hall and was wondering what was being thought about and discussed. He also saw the royal guard Molin, but it was a little strange that he did not maintain order in the hall, nor did he know what these ministers said.
The hall immediately became quiet, and the ministers quickly stood in line according to their positions.
"Your Majesty! I reported that the guard, Lord Molin, openly disrupted the court order and used public instruments for private use. In fact, he actually used the court to sell goods privately. What is the difference between this move and the lower-ranking common people? It really damages the royal dignity!"
Civil Affairs Secretary Harrison immediately seized the opportunity and attacked.
"I testify that Lord Harrison is true!"
Another civil affairs official jumped out and agreed to his Shangguan.
It seems that not only that, officials from the Civil Affairs Department jumped out one after another. There is no reason. No civil affairs official got the magical timekeeping alchemy tool. He was jealous and naturally became jealous.
However, officials from the three departments of military, political, legal and civil affairs have benefited, and none of them came out to take advantage of the situation.
"Private sale of goods?" His Majesty Cyril's voice was plain, and he turned his eyes to Lin Mo who returned to his position, and said, "Molin, tell me, what are you selling privately? Let me take a look."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The dragon-shaped tiger-shaped approached to the emperor in a step. Lin Mo stood still and said nothing, then took a step. A cylindrical object nearly one person tall appeared behind him like magic.
"Hiss!"
"Dragon God is above!"
"This, is this?"
There was a sound of gasping in the hall immediately, including various exclamations.
Click, click, the slight operation of the escapement mechanism can be clearly heard in the quiet hall
There are nine golden lights on the huge cylindrical object, and the slender and unknown creatures are surrounded by a clock face. The heads of those unknown creatures are more like the dragon clan, but no one has seen or even heard of this kind of creature, whether it is the dragon clan or the sub-dragon clan.
But strangely, these nine unknown creatures have a natural noble temperament all over their bodies, which faintly echoes His Majesty Cyril's emperor majesty.
At the bottom of the high column, behind the transparent crystal panels, a long straight object inlaid with crystal gems is constantly swaying. Other details are also extremely exquisitely crafted. They are not stingy with inlaid precious gems in multiple locations, and the whole body is shining brightly. With the nine unknown creatures, it is extremely eye-catching in the hall. Suddenly, a domineering and majesty that looks down on the world arises naturally.
"Your Majesty, this is a mechanical clock that I have customized for you!"
Lin Mo took a step back again, allowing His Majesty Cyril, who was a little stunned, to watch carefully.
"Your Majesty, I report that Lord Morin bribe all the ministers with a mechanical clock!"
At this time, a civil affairs official in the Political Consultative Hall loudly accused Lin Mo of his behavior just now.
The map cannon was a bit big, and the other three ministers glared at this unopened guy.
After I didn't get this shit stick, I wanted to take the blame from others. Everyone just couldn't eat it together. It was so shameless.
"Harrison, is that true?"
His Majesty the Emperor of the Slan Empire finally moved his eyes away from the floor-standing pendulum clock full of tall and superior style.
"This, this, it's true!"
With a fierce glaring at the guy who caused trouble, Harrison could only bite the bullet and confirm the charge.
"Okay, Molin, you've successfully bribed me, this mechanical clock is here."
His Majesty Cyril's answer was beyond everyone's expectations. As an emperor, this is too unconscionable!
I'm afraid no one has ever thought that for the lord of a country, there is no word bribery at all, only the exchange of interests and rewards and punishments are clear. In just a few glances, His Majesty Cyril saw the important value of the mechanical clock.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lin Mo's reaction was as calm as the emperor, and he did not take the report from the Civil Affairs Department at all.
"Well! ~Molin, is there any extra mechanical clock? It seems that one is missing from Qinzheng Hall."
"Okay, your majesty!"
Chapter completed!
