Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 1036 - 996: Is It Useful or Not

With the lighting of this disc of mosquito incense, wisps of smoke immediately began to rise continuously.

These wisps of smoke actually carried a unique fragrance that lingered at everyone’s nose, making the group of generals feel quite relaxed and happy.

Then they looked at Lin Yi, puzzled, and asked:

"Your Majesty, this thing indeed smells quite pleasant, but for us rough folks, whose bodies are all sweaty, it’s of no use at all."

As the general spoke, the other generals around immediately nodded in agreement with the general’s opinion.

Although the Emperor was very delicate and handsome, constantly exuding a pleasant aroma, it was clearly impossible for these tough guys to change their body odor.

However, the Emperor’s intention was kind as he surely wanted them to live more comfortably and reduce the stench in the military tent a bit.

It’s just that this method seems a bit too childish.

Moreover, they began to speculate continuously, could it be that this is what the Emperor wanted us to do these days, just for this thing’s purpose?

This could be a waste of effort and time.

With this time, it would be better to go out and run a few laps, exercise a bit.

Although they thought this way, none of them dared to say it out loud,

As the Emperor’s decision was as sure as iron, no one dared to oppose it, especially the current Emperor was no longer the previous Chen Shiren. The current Emperor was very forceful.

Just a disagreement would lead to consequences, not to mention that even the Prime Minister could be dismissed in such a way?

It was enough to indicate that some things were better left unsaid, lest they bring trouble upon themselves, especially for those who wanted to stay here for a long term.

Although some words couldn’t be said outright, a subtle reminder is still necessary.

Otherwise, if things continue like this, there’s no telling when the enemy might attack, catching them off guard.

That would be disastrous, and the losses at that time would not be a small matter.

Perhaps the Emperor, just ascending to power, hadn’t been involved with military matters, hadn’t fought in wars, and wasn’t aware of such situations.

Once war breaks out, what would be lost would be countless lives, the lives of the soldiers.

It was for this reason that someone stood up to say something.

But in response, Lin Yi just smiled mysteriously, then waved his hand, suggesting everyone to be at ease:

"Everyone, please don’t be in a hurry. Wait until the mosquito incense has burned for a while, then you’ll know what it’s for."

Hearing Lin Yi say this, naturally no one dared to argue any further, and they all stood around, looking around restlessly, waiting.

After all, these people were military generals; asking them to sit quietly like civil servants was very difficult for them.

They were inherently active, and for this reason, Lin Yi didn’t say anything further, just looked at them with a smile.

Occasionally, the sound of slapping could be heard, which proved that while waiting, these guys were also swatting away the mosquitoes that landed on them.

Time passed by second by second, after around five minutes, the smoke had begun to spread throughout the entire small room, and the room was filled with a faint fragrance.

Smelling the fragrance, although these generals didn’t say anything, they were already getting a bit impatient.

But none of them noticed that their actions of swatting away mosquitoes were decreasing, until eventually, no one was swatting mosquitoes anymore, nor were mosquitoes biting them.

However, they hadn’t focused on this aspect, so no one had discovered the mystery within.

After about almost a quarter of an hour, Lin Yi finally looked at everyone with a smile, and asked:

"Hehe, everyone, do you feel any different now than before?"

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at each other, these rough guys couldn’t figure out what was going on.

They all wanted to know if the others had noticed anything, but they hadn’t noticed anything themselves, however, since the Emperor had asked, none of them could say they hadn’t noticed anything, thus they all lowered their heads, avoiding Lin Yi’s gaze.

In short, I didn’t notice, and I’m not saying anything.

Seeing this, Lin Yi decided not to keep them guessing, but instead asked straightforwardly:

"Dear courtiers, may I ask, are mosquitoes still biting you now?"

As Lin Yi said this, all the generals who had lowered their heads were taken aback, everyone immediately raised their heads to look at Lin Yi, some of them puzzled as to why the Emperor would ask such a question without any reason.

Does whether mosquitoes are biting relate to the current situation?

But interestingly, since arriving here, the number of mosquitoes had increased significantly compared to before, and what troubled them the most were the numerous itchy welts they got from bites every day.

And now, hearing Lin Yi say this, they immediately realized that the mosquitoes that were biting them had suddenly disappeared.

This discovery made them all curious.

One guy couldn’t help but speak up:

"Eh, Your Majesty. I’m indeed not being bitten by mosquitoes now, just a moment ago, I was bitten several times, yet suddenly all the mosquitoes around have vanished."

As he spoke, the other generals nodded in agreement.

It was indeed as he said, no mosquito was near them now, and the annoying buzzing had disappeared.

Seeing the crowd’s curious expressions, Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh heartily, then pointed with his hand to the mosquito coil that was half-burned, and said:

"Hahaha, dear courtiers, take a look here, I mentioned, this thing is called mosquito incense, and its function, as the name suggests, is to repel mosquitoes.

As long as it’s lit, the smoke it emits can effectively prevent mosquito bites. With this, mosquitoes won’t dare come near. Dear courtiers, do you find this useful?"
