Chapter 716: Picking People

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The envoys from the West Wind Kingdom did not affect the Wang Family at all. They only listened for a moment before throwing the matter aside.

Instead, Old man Wang was nervous for a moment, worried that it was that group of people from back then who wanted to snatch Ah Yu away.

However, all these years, the West Wind Nation had only sent some things over and had never left a word about All Yu. It looked like they had given up on her, and no one could figure out what they were thinking.

Ah Yu was about to turn 12 years old, and on the surface, she was only 10 years old. Therefore, Old Madam Wang was not afraid that Ah Yu would want to follow the people of the West Wind Kingdom.

When the child grew up, it was a good thing to have her own thoughts. She also had the right to choose independently. She would not arrange her life for her.

After all, All Yu was different from her silly sons. She had been carefully raised by herself and was protected by an immortal. She would not do anything stupid.

Ah Yu did not know about this. She only heard Old Madam Wang briefly tell her about the village’s matters. After learning that there was nothing serious, she was relieved.

The next day, on the carriage to work, Ah Yu asked Qin Huai something. “Big Brother All You, what do you need to nurture your own people?”

Qin Huai: “Why are you suddenly asking about this? Is it because the manpower 1 gave you is not enough? 1’11 transfer some more to you.”

He did not ask why Ah Yu suddenly needed manpower. He only pondered in his heart if the group of people he had nurtured could be used for another test. The people arranged for Ah Yu could not be allowed to rebel.

Ah Yu said, “No, the people you left for the family are enough, but 1 still want to nurture some of my own people. I just don’t know what procedures are needed and if they conform to the rules.”

“You’re a Village Lord. According to the law, you can have soldiers and guards. However, the number of people is relatively strict. You’re only allowed to have no more than 20 people. Ten of them will be paid through the government, and the remaining ten will be paid for by yourself.”

However, although that was the case, the nobles usually had more than 20 guards. There were also 50 to 60 people with positions in their families, but the number would not exceed 100. If they exceeded that number, it would be a serious violation.

Moreover, soldiers and guards were different from ordinary servants. It was very expensive and energy-consuming to nurture them. Also, since they were not ordinary servants, they could not be ordered around for ordinary small matters. Sometimes, these people could be considered half masters. If the main family could not suppress them, something might happen.

As long as they did not have many enemies, they were usually not very useful. Therefore, many families did not even arrange for proper guards. They only let the servants take on multiple roles.

“Oh, then where do I need to find these people? From the military service or the Internal Affairs Department?”

Qin Huai: “This matter is complicated. If you’re really interested, why don’t we think about it at length? Recently, in order to receive the envoys from the West Wind Nation, the Hanlin Academy has also been mobilized and some matters have been put on hold. I’ll bring you to take a look when I’m on duty later.”

“Okay.”

Qin Huai was a decisive person. He remembered his words and he used the opportunity of being on duty at the Hanlin Academy to read more relevant books and found many methods. After organizing them into a book, he gave it to Ah Yu.

“There are really a lot of places to choose from.” Ah Yu held the small booklet Qin Huai had given her and flipped through the detailed introduction. She said, “I plan to nurture a batch of useful people for my family. The most important thing is loyalty. Their ability is secondary. In any case, Grandma can help teach those who are not capable enough. So, looking at it this way, the families of those guilty officials are actually not bad. At least we don’t need to teach them etiquette. As for the military service camp, let’s forget about it. Those soldiers’ temperaments are a bit difficult to manage. Well, we should consult an official who handles these matters. They deal with a lot of people, so they might know more details!”

The official records are registered within the government office, and the individuals they deal with are all clean, even their ancestral lineage can be traced back several generations. It’s also more reassuring to use.

This was a thought that’d suddenly come to her. She didn’t think so in the past, but now that she realized it, she couldn’t rely solely on Big Brother All You’s Crimson Guards. Setting aside whether they had other duties, their family needed their own capable people after all.

She did not mind, but who knew if the others in the family did?

With Big Brother Ah You’s people hiding at home all year round, even if the Wang Family was used to it, when the Wang Family entered the officialdom in the future, it was inevitable that they would be gossiped about. At that time, they would be ostracized and suppressed by officials who did not have good political views. There would be all kinds of unpleasant words.

It was better to put an end to this from the beginning.

The Wang family only needed loyal individuals, but they didn’t necessarily have to be like the Crimson Guards, willing to risk their lives. As long as they could protect the Wang family members during crucial moments, that would be considered qualified..
