Chapter 123: Muyang's black card

After the gallant figure of the dashing grand emperor faded into the darkness behind the large group of green tents, the workers finally turned their attention back to Chi Lian.

"Ma'am, what do you want us to do?" the boss asked respectfully.

All the men were looking at her differently now, she was someone who could bring the grand emperor to her defense so in their minds, she was definitely related to royalty somehow. They had to be careful and respectful lest the consequences be grave for them.

"Start by getting into a work mood. If any of you had plans to go home tonight, cancel them, we will be working all night."

A few moans went around among the workers. A few of them snuck away to make calls to their families and girlfriends.

"I will be paying an additional bonus for your sacrifice." She promised. The best way to motivate workers was not with words, it was with a cash bonus.
