After hearing w.a.n.g Mang’s words, Li Jian was completely stunned.

Heavens! Reluctant? As if!

Those were three ten-thousand-man commander positions, which neither he nor Yang Wei had ever appointed before.

This position was basically one rank below the silver-armored generals, so one could imagine how fierce the compet.i.tion for these positions would be.

As such, the potential benefits were unimaginable! This guy was shamelessly greedy! He wanted all three!

Because of this, Li Jian roared without hesitation, “Impossible! Each of us must get one of these positions!”

Seeing Li Jian’s furious expression, w.a.n.g Mang naturally knew that this fellow would never give in.

Thinking this, w.a.n.g Mang’s face darkened.

“Then 1 want both centurions.”

Li Jian refused without hesitation again. “That’s impossible!”

“At most, I’ll give you a captain, a centurion, and a ten-thousand-man commander.”

After pondering for a long time, and seeing that the other party was completely unwilling to give in, w.a.n.g Mang decided not to argue with him anymore.

After all, today was the first day he took office, so it would not be good to burn bridges just yet.

“Alright then!”

Seeing w.a.n.g Mang agree, Li Jian heaved a sigh of relief, but he was inwardly very depressed.

He could only walk towards Yang Wei, but Yang Wei immediately said with a dark expression, “The other centurion position, give it to me this time.”

“The next time we encounter such a situation, I’ll take a slightly smaller quota.”

Li Jian became even more depressed, but in the end, he nodded helplessly.

He knew that he could not allow Yang Wei to get the short end of the stick this time. After all, the latter had been beaten up yesterday.

As for w.a.n.g Mang, it was even more impossible.

In his opinion, it was already good enough that w.a.n.g Mang relented and did not insist on pursuing that initial request.

It seemed that he could only suffer this time.

“Alright then! Let’s split the positions that way today.”

“Everyone, 1’11 let the people waiting outside in.”

After saying that, Li Jian stood up and walked out of the tent and called out, “Alright, you can come in now.”

As soon as he finished speaking, w.a.n.g Mang saw a large group of soldiers and generals rush in. Most were carrying doc.u.ments.

In just a few moments, three lines had formed in the appointment tent, and in front of each of those lines were Li Jian, Yang Wei, and w.a.n.g Mang.

Now, the first person in each line approached their respective promotion officer.

It seemed that this was the standard procedure for military appointments, and that everyone other than him was used to it.

The first person to approach w.a.n.g Mang was a young man with a face full of smiles.

He held a letter of appointment in his hand, as well as an extraordinary wooden box, which he handed over to w.a.n.g Mang.

“Sir, please take a look. This lowly-one is here for the centurion position.”

Hearing this, w.a.n.g Mang nodded slightly and was about to take action. However, he inadvertently glanced at Li Jian and Yang Wei.

These two did not even look at the doc.u.ments, but rather at the bribe, ahem, gift, that the other party had brought.

Seeing that the gift was not good enough, Li Jian and Yang Wei waved their hands to indicate that the other party could leave. Seeing this, w.a.n.g Mang opened the wooden box that had been presented to him.

His eyes lit up when he saw that this was an immortal peach. That being said, it did not seem to be as good as the ones he had eaten before.

Thinking this, w.a.n.g Mang silently said in his heart, “System, how many energy points is this immortal peach worth?”

[Ding! This 13,000-year-old immortal peach is worth 100,000 energy points!]

Only 100,000 energy points?

w.a.n.g Mang was greatly disappointed when he heard this. He then closed the wooden box and waved his hand.

“Next.”

Upon hearing w.a.n.g Mang’s words, the young soldier’s expression became dejected.

He was a captain of a large team, and his strength had reached the required standard, as had enough military merits. However, he had been frustrated by the appointment approval bottleneck again and again, and thus was unable to become a centurion.

Not long after, the second soldier came up, who was a fat man. This fellow was here for the captain position.

To w.a.n.g Mang’s surprise, when he opened the wooden box, he found a 13,000-year-old Saturn Peach, which was also worth 100,000 energy points.

Thinking this, w.a.n.g Mang estimated that this was a pretty high price, so he nodded slightly.

“Leave the appointment doc.u.ment and leave. Also, inform the others that the position of captain has already been filled. If they want to continue their application, join the other two lines.”

Upon hearing w.a.n.g Mang’s words, the fat man’s face beamed with joy. He quickly smiled and cupped his hands.

“I’ll go now, Sir.”

After saying that, he immediately turned around and got to work.

w.a.n.g Mang did not have to wait long for the next person. An ordinary-looking young man walked over, smiling as he placed the approval letter on w.a.n.g Mang’s desk.

At the same time, he placed a box in front of w.a.n.g Mang.

“Milord, this lowly one is here for the position of Centurion.”

w.a.n.g Mang nodded lazily and opened the wooden box.

However, after taking a look, w.a.n.g Mang frowned. After asking the system, he determined that it was worth less than 130,000 energy points, so he impatiently waved his hand and said, “Next!”

He ignored the disappointment in the other party’s eyes.

w.a.n.g Mang continued to wait for the next person, who arrived soon.

This candidate was a middle-aged man with a cold and stern face. He exuded a powerful aura. He walked over with a confident smile on his face.

w.a.n.g Mang was somewhat surprised to see this. This guy was quite confident!

Thinking this, w.a.n.g Mang inadvertently glanced at the jade box that this fellow had brought with him.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man smiled confidently and said, “Milord, this lowly one is here for the ten-thousand-man commander position.”

Hearing this, w.a.n.g Mang nodded his head expressionlessly and opened the jade box in front of him, and a medicinal fragrance immediately a.s.saulted his senses.

Inside, there was a jade bottle.

w.a.n.g Mang’s eyes lit up when he saw the jade bottle. It was very likely to be a medicinal pill!

Otherwise, there would not be such a strong medicinal fragrance!

With this thought in mind, w.a.n.g Mang picked up the small jade bottle and quietly asked in his heart, “System! How many energy points is this pill worth?”

[Ding! Discovered a low-grade Tier 4 Second Revolution Golden Pill. Its value

is….]
