Chapter 260: Something fishy is going on, rumors are spreading

Shen Qing looked at Sun Ding in front of him, showing some dissatisfaction.

During Zheng Yuanqiu's previous tenure, there were too many people in the Weiwu Division who were idle, and most of them were useless.

People like Sun Ding are not isolated cases.

"Now that all the miscellaneous matters have been taken care of, Tian Xiaohu will be recruited into the Weiwu Division tomorrow. With Wu Sheng as a channel, as long as time goes by, I will have a team, so I won't rely on these useless people anymore."

Shen Qing waved his sleeves and strode away.

At night, Shen Qing returned to the house and informed Tian Xiaohu and Xiao Zhi of his decision.

Compared to Tian Xiaohu's excited face, Xiao Zhi looked a little disappointed.

Shen Qing asked: "Xiao Zhi, have you been looking for a new cook these days?"

During this period of time, he was busy with government affairs, and he left the restaurant to his uncle, aunt, eldest sister, and Xiao Zhi to take care of it. He would not sort out the accounts until the end of the month when he needed to withdraw money.

Although this restaurant may not be big, it actually earns a lot of money every day. Especially after he was promoted to vice president, business became even better.

If he finds a better place later and opens a larger restaurant, his daily income can be doubled several times.

Now he needs a lot of financial resources to speed up his cultivation, and this restaurant can provide him with it, so he can't afford to lose it.

As the chef there, Xiao Zhi naturally couldn't go to Wei Wusi.

Xiao Zhi said: "We have identified one last year. This person comes from a family of chefs. He has been studying cooking since his great-grandfather generation. However, he fell down from his father's family and the boss he served is gone, so he is here We are trying to make a living here, and I see that he has a reliable character and is willing to cultivate him."

"That's good, you can cultivate it first. If nothing happens, you can reveal my identity to shock me." Shen Qing warned: "This restaurant is quite important to me, and I still need you to support it for the time being. . But don’t worry, even though you can’t get into the Weiwu Division, you will make a lot of money every month from Tian Xiaohu. I won’t treat the old people around me badly.”

Seeing Shen Qing's serious look, Xiao Zhi's somewhat depressed expression suddenly became "bright" and seemed to be full of energy.

To be honest, he felt a little unbalanced when he heard that Tian Xiaohu was about to become a servant, and he was still a cook.

But what Shen Qing said made him feel much better. At least he felt that Shen Qing was still thinking of him.

Xiao Zhi vowed: "Don't worry, boss, I will make sure the restaurant is well run and won't ruin the boss's business."

"I can rest assured that you will do the work."

On the second day, Shen Qing brought Tian Xiaohu to Weiwu Division.

Under his arrangement, Tian Xiaohu directly registered and changed into the uniform of a bodyguard military officer without any hindrance.

The back hall of Weiwusi.

Shen Qing looked at the brand new Tian Xiaohu and joked: "It's true that a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. After putting on new clothes, his temperament is completely different."

Tian Xiaohu didn't say anything, he just kept laughing silly.

His family has been hunting in the mountains for generations. When did he ever think about wearing official attire?

It’s a bit incredible to think about it now.

"Your cultivation level is still too low, and it is still not good enough for the entire Weiwu Division. Next, you have to find a way to improve your cultivation level as much as possible. I still have some pills on hand, and I will give them to you when the time comes. You, you should practice first, and try to break through to the late stage of Skin Forging before the end of the year, and reach the Qi Nourishing Realm.”

"Ah? Qi-nourishing realm?" Tian Xiaohu was a little horrified.

He knew that nourishing the Qi realm was nothing here in Yongzhou, but it still felt a little difficult to adapt to it if it really fell on him.

In his concept, the state of nourishing qi is already an extraordinary state, and even in Taiping County he is considered a figure.

"You have the elixir resources and skills. It can be said that you are not inferior to those rich children. To put it bluntly, I have paved the road for you. If you can't even forge the skin and nourish the energy, then You need to reflect on yourself. The foundation of Zhou Guochaotang is not comparable to that of those martial arts schools."

"Otherwise, why do you think there are so many people outside trying to get into the imperial court?" Shen Qing raised his eyelids and asked.

Tian Xiaohu's face suddenly became serious.

As Shen Qing said, if the road is paved to this extent, he will not be able to increase his cultivation, and he will indeed have no face to see the other party.

Shen Qing continued: "But compared to your cultivation, there are two other things that I am more urgent about. I need you to deal with them for me. I don't worry about others doing it."

When Tian Xiaohu heard this, his body trembled, he quickly folded his hands on his chest, gave a deep salute and said sternly: "But according to your instructions, I will do my best to live up to my entrustment."

Shen Qing glanced at Tian Xiaohu in surprise and found that his mind was spinning very quickly. He almost immediately adapted to his identity and changed his tone.

He is a smart man.

Shen Qing withdrew his gaze and said: "The first thing is, some vendors in Xinyi Square and nearby want to send their children to me. You can check it for me first. I don't want to accept those who have no eyesight, don't want to be hard-working, and have poor skills." Don’t.”

"After passing these three levels, if you find someone who is suitable, come to my side. I plan to recruit more servants."

These people all come from ordinary people's families. Their families are engaged in business and their families are well off. They are all good family members.

Just right for enriching the team.

Tian Xiaohu nodded and said: "Yes, I have recorded it for my humble position."

"The second thing." Shen Qing crossed his hands and placed them on the long desk, and said with a serious expression: "Check for me about the traitor to the Huangtian Sect in Xin'anfang yesterday. I always feel that there is something fishy."

"Weird? What's so strange?" Tian Xiaohu asked more questions.

Shen Qing recalled: "That Huangtian sect member is not like the Huangtian sect. He is too deliberate, as if he is deliberately letting people know that he is a Huangtian sect."

"Do you still remember the behavior of those people from the Huang Tian Sect in Taiping County?"

Tian Xiaohu recalled: “My only impression is that they are keen on preaching.”

"So if that person is a member of the Huangtian Sect, he does not preach secretly, but instead jumps out and kills people in public, as if he is afraid that people will not know that he is a traitor to the Huangtian Sect, which must be strange. Sun Ding was defeated by me before, so he must be If you have a problem with me, I'm afraid some people will take advantage of you."

Tian Xiaohu quickly realized the hidden risks and quickly agreed.

Shen Qing waved his hand: "Go and get busy and give me the results as soon as possible."

"I resign from my humble position."

Just as Shen Qing expected.

After the next day, a rumor couldn't help but spread like wildfire across the Weiwu Division.

"Have you heard? The vice president is about to take action against our grandson."

A policeman wearing a military officer's uniform lowered his voice and said to another policeman next to him.

"Ah, what's going on?" Another person took over and asked curiously.

"What else could happen? I think that day, our old grandson attacked the deputy general manager in front of Mr. Huangfu. Do you think you could let old sun go if you were in charge? Now after so many days, the deputy general manager I have been preparing secretly, and now the time has come.”

"The vice-president took advantage of Huang Tianjiao's gang's betrayal to be cruel to Old Sun, saying that he would capture the beast in three days. Where can I find it? It is simply driving Old Sun to a dead end!"

The person next to him nodded heavily: "Not to mention three days, even thirty days, I think it's all mysterious. The Huangtian Sect comes and goes without a trace. How can you find it in such a huge Yongzhou?"

"That's not the most outrageous statement."

"Talk about it."

"I also heard that the Huang Tianjiao rebellion in Xin'anfang was a conspiracy planned by Vice President Cha! The purpose was to take the opportunity to bring down Sun Ding, and then clean up the old people in the Weiwu Division step by step so that he could replace them with his own people ”

A guard from the second group added mysteriously, with a hint of disbelief in his words.

"This...can't be right?"

"It's hard to say. Look, he just recruited a servant who just made bones yesterday. Now he is recruiting new servants outside. This statement is not groundless."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Soon these rumors became a topic of discussion among the officers after dinner, and the people of the Weiwu Division were panicked for a while.

However, Shen Qing, who heard some rumors, seemed particularly calm.

He stood in front of the study in the back hall, looking out the window at the blooming peonies and roses.

"It seems that the person behind the Xin'anfang case is here for me."

Shen Qing's brows gradually wrinkled.

He recalled carefully that he didn't seem to have offended anyone during this period of time.

Is it because he is easy to bully?

In Xinyi Square.

At the door of Chen's vegetable shop, a burly man trotted over quickly, shouting happily as he ran: "Dad, Dad, I passed, I passed."

Lao Chen, who was busy arranging the vegetable stall, saw his son rushing towards him and asked with a confused look on his face: "What happened?"

"It's the officer from the Weiwu Division you asked me to answer!"

"Ah, you mean, Master Shen has agreed to let you be a servant?"

The burly man nodded heavily.

"Good boy, you can do it. It's worth all the effort you put into me."

The vegetable vendor Chen looked at his son in front of him and suddenly burst into tears.

"In the future, when you enter the Weiwu Division, you should work hard and break up with those gang members. Don't join the gang like your brother and risk your own life."

The burly man Chen Guang stepped forward and comforted him: "If it weren't for my elder brother who led me to learn martial arts, how could I have this skill? Father, don't worry, I will definitely be able to honor my ancestors and have a great future. Even if I can't, my son, I My grandson will always be successful."

"Don't talk about whether there are such things. I think Mr. Shen is a good official. From now on, you should follow him and do a good job, and don't do those sneaky things."

Chen Guang grinned and said, "Dad, I know it well."

"Okay, I won't tell you this anymore. I have to go on a long trip to deliver food to the city. If it's too late, I'll miss the time."

Chen Guang asked strangely: "Dad, didn't you always give gifts to the Dong family and a few wealthy families in the past? Why are you leaving the city now?"

"The young master of the Dong family asked for it, even if he has a house outside the city."

Chen Guang looked at the full baskets and stalls of vegetables in front of him. He grabbed the pole and said, "Father, lead the way. I will carry the load for you today."

Lao Chen from the vegetable shop wanted to step forward and snatch it away, but faced with his son who was already practicing martial arts, he had no power to fight back, so he had to give up.

"Dad, please step forward and lead the way."

"You kid. Okay, let me relax for a while. If you can't hold on any longer, just tell me."

Chen Guang's bones have been refined now, and his skin is rough and fleshy. It is no problem to carry a load. He knew that Old Chen was concerned about him, so he walked forward without any explanation.

"Dad, hurry up." Chen Guang said with steady steps as he shouldered the heavy load of vegetables.

A smile appeared on Old Chen's face, he took out an old crutch from behind the door and walked quickly in front of Chen Guang.

The two of them walked through the bustling streets one after the other and soon left the city.

After walking along the spacious official road for a while, Lao Chen stepped forward to lead the way: "Go this way, it's closer."

As he said, he turned outside the official road and walked onto a field ridge road.

Chen Guang followed closely.

At this time, looking around, there were green fields all around, and mountains in the distance, surrounded by clouds and mist, like an elegant ink painting.

They did not communicate too much, but just kept on going.

After walking for an unknown period of time, an ancient house came into view.

"We're here."

Lao Chen stepped forward and pulled the door knocker and knocked on the door.

After a while, a man dressed as a martial artist opened the door. After glancing at Lao Chen, he set his eyes on Chen Guang behind him.

"Who is this man?"

"My son, come and help me carry the load."

The martial artist took a look and said dissatisfiedly: "Bring fewer irrelevant people in the future."

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Come in."

Chen Guang was a little confused, but he didn't ask any more questions. He followed Lao Chen across the threshold and walked in.

As soon as he entered the door and crossed the yard, he heard lively shouting.

"Leopard, eat all, hahaha... bring it here."

Chen Guang instantly understood that this was a casino.

He didn't ask any more questions and followed his father Lao Chen to the back kitchen to arrange the dishes.

At this time, the martial artist came over, took out a big coin and said: "Here you go, send new ones in three days."

Lao Chen took the big coin and bowed: "Okay, okay."

Putting the money in his pocket, Lao Chen was about to leave.

Chen Guang felt a pain in his stomach and said hurriedly, "My dear, there is a toilet here. I'll help you."

"Go find it behind this house."

Chen Guang turned around and said, "Dad, wait for me for a while."

He walked towards the back of the house and saw a low toilet. He walked in without thinking much.

Not long after squatting down, he heard footsteps and dissatisfied complaints from outside the house.

"It's been almost three days. I'm tired of staying in this rotten place. When will the young master let me go?"

"Soon."

"I tell you, I have done everything the young master asked me to do. I killed people and Huang Tian taught me to pretend. But I agreed to three hundred taels of gold, and I touched three small goldfish. I lost all of them to you. You have to give me a definite answer."

"Don't worry, our young master always keeps his word... Let's go and play a few more times."

After the water flow ended, the footsteps of the two gradually faded away.

After making sure that the two had left, Chen Guang pondered for a while, then quickly pulled up his pants and left on tiptoe.
