Chapter 44 A more suitable candidate
Chen Daming betrayed the Xiao family army, and Guo Wen could not trust his soldiers.
Xiao Jingyan sighed and confirmed:
"You can rest assured about this. The Xiao family army is my army. Even if these people have followed Chen Daming before, they should now recognize the situation and continue to be loyal to me."
"Divide the people selected from Chen Daming's camp into three groups and integrate them into your own ranks."
"Until we have chosen a general to replace Chen Daming, the affairs of his camp will be divided among the three of you."
Although no one was happy about it, the prince's order could not be disobeyed.
Seeing that they all looked unhappy, Xiao Jingyan pointed at the innocent knife holder and ordered:
"And you, during this period of time, help the three of them and take care of those people in Chen Daming's camp."
Zhiren, who is still in a daze:?
"Your Majesty, have you chosen someone to replace Chen Daming?"
Liu Deyou followed with concern.
Throughout history, the Xiao family army was divided into four camps: East, South, West and North. Apart from the supreme commander, the descendants of the Xiao family, the second in command were these four generals.
Chen Daming's position in the army is indispensable.
The White Tiger Camp in the west, which he was in charge of, also had a quarter of the Xiao family army's strength.
Fortunately, the emperor never asked about the affairs of the Xiao family army, and the transfer of positions in the army was entirely decided by Xiao Jingyan.
But the incident with Chen Daming happened suddenly, and for a while, Xiao Jingyan really had no suitable successor.
"Do any of you generals have any candidates in mind?"
"If you have any, you can tell me now."
Xiao Jingyan threw the question Liu Deyou asked him back to everyone.
The three didn't dare to speak.
In this kind of situation, if they really recommended someone, they would be suspected of wanting to build up their own power in the military.
As experienced people, they won't speak casually.
Seeing that no one was talking, Xiao Jingyan chuckled.
"Just speak freely, the three of you. In my Xiao Family Army, there are no such twists and turns!"
Even after he said so much, no one came forward to recommend someone.
In addition to wanting to protect themselves, they were also worried that the soldiers in Chen Daming's camp would be difficult to discipline and would not listen to them.
After all, those people were all brought up by Chen Daming.
It’s like a teacher and students in a school. Since the day of enlightenment, they have been taught by this teacher. If the teacher is changed in the middle of the course, anyone will have some psychological barriers.
"Okay, if you really can't find a candidate for the White Tiger Camp's general, then we'll split up the people in the camp and redistribute them among your other three camps."
Xiao Jingyan directly wanted to disband the White Tiger Camp and transfer the people in the camp to the other three camps.
The White Tiger Battalion has more than 40,000 soldiers. Even if they are dispersed to join the other three battalions, each battalion will receive as many as 13,000 people.
Wang, Liu, and Guo all found it a headache to train the few soldiers in their own camp. Who would want those burdens?
After the prince said this, they finally said who they thought was a good candidate.
The three people nominated five candidates in total.
Xiao Jingyan was finally satisfied.
"Zhiren, Zhimo, when you two are out and about in the army, remember to help me keep an eye on these five people and pick out the most suitable candidate."
*
The sun rises in the early morning, and the rosy glow gradually spreads over the city.
Xiao Jingyan had already gotten up and washed up, and now he was leading the Xiao family army to practice shooting.
Everyone has a basic knowledge of archery, so Xiao Jingyan doesn't have to worry about the accuracy of the shooting.
Now we are just practicing the tacit understanding between them and guns, so that they can adapt to various guns, especially pistols, just like they adapt to bows and arrows.
On Shi Xi's side.
Because she had to go to Yan Ran's house to wait for the electric car to be collected today, Shi Xi also got up early.
It was just eight o'clock when she drove off.
Although the two are in different time and space, they are both illuminated by the same sun.
When they looked up at the sky and the sun together, they began to miss each other unconsciously.
The first time is strange, the second time is familiar. The security guards at the gate of Yan's manor almost regarded Shi Xi as their own eldest daughter.
Yan Ran was also very happy that Shi Xi could come to her often and trust and rely on her like a family member.
After arriving at the villa, Shi Xi saw that the merchant who delivered the electric car had not yet arrived, so she followed Yan Ran to eat some breakfast made by her nanny.
Simple sandwiches and milk, with a unique taste.
Xiao Jingyan and his friends had never even seen these foods. Shi Xi felt that she had to make more money to redeem her grandfather's business and provide Xiao Jingyan with better supplies.
"Xiao Ran, how's the jewelry investment project you mentioned before?"
They are already in their third year of college and are about to enter the internship stage.
In their aristocratic school, many students choose to intern in their own companies or start their own businesses.
Yan Ran is the latter.
"We're still planning, but we've already started looking for a location in our city."
Yan Ran answered casually.
She has loved beautiful jewelry since she was a child. For her, as the daughter of a gangster, only by running a high-end jewelry store business can she reach a higher-end crowd.
Yan Ran had mentioned this to her once before, but Shi Xi was not interested in jewelry and antiques at the time, so she didn't pay attention to it.
Things are not as good as before. She now has several boxes of gold, silver and jewelry given by Xiao Jingyan.
"If you have a wealthy woman who wants to buy antique jewelry, please remember to contact me!"
Shi Xi half-jokingly asked Yan Ran to help introduce customers.
She felt that it was a little unsafe to always sell antiques in Qi's place, so she wanted to find more customers so that she could sell more antiques.
Yan Ran is usually careless, and if Shi Xi didn't mention it herself, Yan Ran wouldn't remember it.
Knowing that Shi Xi was in a difficult situation, she also planned to help Shi Xi.
Coincidentally, she actually met a wealthy woman from another place at a jewelry launch recently.
The rich woman is old, so her favorite accessories tend to be retro.
Yan Ran felt that she could ask Shi Xi to pick out some modern-style jewelry from the jewelry Xiao Jingyan gave her and take them to show this rich woman.
If the rich woman takes a fancy to and buys Shi Xi's antiques, it will also increase the traffic and popularity of the jewelry store she is about to open.
After telling Shi Xi about this idea, Shi Xi was quite satisfied.
"Okay, I'll go back and look for it and send you a photo."
Shi Xi responded.
Just as the two best friends reached a consensus, Yan Ran's phone rang.
"Miss, there's an electric car seller outside delivering something. Is this the one Miss Shi ordered?"
The security guard asked on the other end of the phone.
"It's Xixi's. Tell them to wait at the warehouse at the back door."
Yan Ran replied and hung up the phone.
Even Yan Ran's security guard and nanny knew that Shi Xi kept buying things and sending them to him.
However, Shi Xi trusted Yan Ran's people very much and knew that they would not go out and say anything.
Taking the opportunity, Shi Xi also told Yan Ran that the supermarket was recruiting workers and that she wanted to hire an assistant.
"You're such a stingy person, and you're still willing to spend money on an assistant? The sun is rising from the west?"
Yan Ran rudely criticized Shi Xi.
The way they tease each other, they really are best friends! "Happy weekend, my little darlings~ There's an extra chapter tonight, everyone come and read it!!!"
