Chapter 482 Dongfang Jin Jumps into the "Pit" 1
Hearing what Prince Chen and Changsun Lan said, Helian Shuo gave them a thumbs up in agreement: "You two have the best idea."
After he finished speaking, he specifically looked in Dongfang Jin's direction and saw that she was still fighting with several children for food.
I'm speechless. How old is she? She's still so lively.
Why doesn't Gu Chenglin do anything about this?
It seems they are unable to complete the task assigned to them by their uncle, the emperor.
He sighed silently: "In this way, we can meet their admission requirements while also protecting our interests."
Finally, still unwilling to give up, she looked at Dongfang Jin and asked, "Xiao Jin, what do you think of this plan?"
Dongfang Jin was enjoying her meal when Helian Shuo's persistent questioning suddenly made her a little irritated.
She put down the crayfish in her hand and wiped her hands clean with a wet wipe.
She stood up and glared fiercely at the group. Were they really going to force her to speak? These men are really something…
Never mind, Ruyi, are you all done organizing?
Alright, we can begin.
Dongfang Jin entered the Ruyi Realm with his divine sense and looked at the information that Ruyi had found on the computer and mobile phone.
Then, as he walked around them, he said, "Okay, I'll talk, but what you said is also somewhat relevant."
Well, I'll add something to what you've said. It's fine to let them attend the Royal Primary School, but there need to be a few rules.
You must register all the protons that each country wants to keep.
It must also have the signature of the team leader, which must be their personal seal.
Moreover, they must all be supervised by designated personnel, meaning they cannot be allowed to bring too many people to remain in the Eastern Kingdom.
Looking at his daughter's commanding presence, Cang Nanxi seemed to see the shadow of his grandfather in a daze.
"Little Jin'er, continue!"
Dongfang Jin walked behind her adoptive father and put her hand on his shoulder: "First, those people who stay and reside in the capital for a long time..."
After the personnel are confirmed, they must be reported to the Honglu Temple (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) of the Ministry of Rites within three days.
Register the person's name, country of origin, and the identities of accompanying persons, and attach a portrait, date of birth, etc.
Those who fail to register by the deadline will be deemed to have given up their right to remain in Beijing.
Once the personnel to remain are determined, they will be assigned to specific hostage residences, and a regent will be established there.
Every day at Chenshi (7-9 AM) and Youshi (5-7 PM), officials under the Court of State Ceremonial were to check the number of people in the residence. Failure to register each person would result in a fine of three months' salary; unauthorized concealment would lead to execution.
Cang Nanxi nodded in satisfaction: "That's feasible. This first point will reduce the number of cowardly and weak people."
Incidentally, it could also monitor officials in the Ministry of Rites who abused their power for personal gain and violated treaties between the two countries.
Haha, this way, whether they stay or go to supervise, the officials will all behave themselves.
Changsun Lan nodded in satisfaction, looking at Dongfang Jin with suppressed emotions in her eyes: "Girl, if necessary, you can bring in the Censorate."
Cang Lingchen looked at Changsun Lan in surprise. How did this guy expose himself so quickly?
Didn't my cousin say we'd bring it up at the very end? Besides, there's a chance we might not even need the Censorate.
Dongfang Jin smiled at him. This fox has taken the bait. That's exactly what I've been waiting for.
Seeing that no one spoke, Dongfang Jin continued, "Secondly, there is personnel control. Each hostage who stays is limited to bringing only two personal attendants."
There are no age or gender restrictions, but applicants must undergo a thorough physical examination by the Imperial Medical Academy before they can stay.
If you feel that there are not enough, you need to add more people; up to four more attendants can be added.
However, these four extra items are not included in our supply scope.
They are required to pay a residency fee according to the following standards.
For example, each person could pay ten taels of gold per year, or pay in lieu of equivalent value in the form of silk, horses, etc.
These people paid in advance every quarter, and those who failed to pay were forced to become government slaves.
Moreover, the identities of these new attendants must be verified by personnel from the Censorate.
Those who decided to stay were to have the words "hostage servant" carved on their right ear or in a clearly identifiable place on their arm.
When they leave the country, this can be removed with a potion to erase the traces. I will provide this potion.
However, these people also underwent a thorough physical examination by the Imperial Medical Academy, and those who passed were allowed to remain.
Moreover, these students, like those at the Royal Primary School, are required to undergo a physical examination every month.
Zhao Pengyu stood up and looked at Dongfang Jin with curiosity: "Aunt, why are you giving them medical checkups?"
Dongfang Jin stepped forward and gave him an approving look: "Good question. This matter can be big or small."
But what about Xiao? It's just that she's not used to the local environment. As the saying goes, "One's environment shapes one's character."
If they stay behind and fall ill due to the change in environment, we must take timely action to prevent them from losing their lives.
To us, they are outsiders. Our harsh treatment of them is actually a form of protection.
When it comes to human life, we become very passive and are considered to be in the wrong.
Therefore, if you encounter them at school in the future, you should keep your distance.
You can also form a small team to secretly observe their movements.
If you are interested, please report it promptly.
Zhao Pengyu listened with great enthusiasm, patting his chest and declaring, "We can definitely do it!"
Dongfang Jin nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad. If you discover anything unusual and report it, you will be rewarded by coming to your aunt's place with a ten-tael gold ingot."
"it is good!"
Gu Mingyu and Changsun Yu looked at the excited Zhao Pengyu: "Auntie, what about us?"
"We have both, but this is a secret operation. We can't let anyone see any flaws, and we certainly can't do it intentionally because of the gold ingots."
Gu Yongqing said excitedly, "I know, a few of us will form a small team."
Looking at the excited young men, Dongfang Jin said with satisfaction, "It's feasible."
At this moment, Lu Yunqing interrupted their interaction: "This is huge!"
"This is a big deal, quite complicated, involving lives and deaths."
The concern is that they might carry germs, and these germs can be quite diverse.
Some pathogens can remain dormant in the human body for seven to ten days, or even longer, before they can cause an outbreak.
If we fail to detect it in time, it could potentially develop into a plague.
Upon hearing the word "plague," everyone seemed to freeze, their faces turning pale, their eyes filled with fear and panic.
Upon hearing about the plague, Zhao Pengyu was so frightened that he fell to the ground, his face turning deathly pale and his body trembling.
"Little...little...aunt, really...there is..."
Dongfang Jin ignored the somber expressions on the faces of the others when they heard the word "plague".
He reached out and pulled Zhao Pengyu up, teasingly saying, "Little rascal, you're scared already?"
"A real man doesn't cry, he bleeds, but he's a coward."
With your current small size, you wouldn't get infected even if you were thrown into the heart of the plague zone.
"If you get sick so easily, wouldn't all the food I've fed you over the years have been wasted?"
When Changsun Lan heard her say that, he felt relieved, but he was terrified.
This "major or minor" possibility terrified him quite a bit. And to be fair, in recent years, all over the country...
Pshaw, pshaw, pshaw... I can't think about it!
Cang Lingchen glanced at the group and sighed silently; he too was quite frightened by his sister.
The plague, that's a disease that wipes out an entire family. It's a huge threat; it could easily wipe out the entire population of a city or even a prefecture.
Composing himself, he said to Dongfang Jin, "Sister, please continue."
Dongfang Jin pressed Zhao Pengyu back into his seat, gesturing for him to continue eating: "Thirdly, the hostages and their entourage left behind are not allowed to enter important places such as the Weaponry Workshop, the Defense Office, and the Imperial Observatory."
Anyone who violates this rule will be punished with eighty strokes of the cane, a fine of one thousand taels of gold, and expelled from the Eastern Kingdom.
Helian Shuo slammed his wine glass on the table and said confidently, "Even the sons of our country's officials are not allowed to enter these important places easily."
Those country bumpkins don't even have that chance.
Dongfang Jin rolled her eyes at him: "Big brother, do you understand the importance of prevention? Besides, can you prevent rats from getting in?"
We're making sure everything is foolproof, so they can't take advantage of any loopholes. And don't underestimate anyone.
Don't forget, there's another type of human being in this world, and these are the most dangerous.
