Nightwatcher

Invite me to call someone else?

Xu Qi'an couldn't believe it for a moment, he kept silent and didn't rush to speak.

"You are a talent. I have already confirmed it in the back hall of the government office. It's just that there are rules for the watchmen, and Qi training is the bottom line." Li Yuchun changed to a very casual sitting position, not as aggressive as before, and said:

"As the guardian of Dafeng, the defender of His Majesty, it is normal to have higher requirements.

"But you have proved yourself with your own ability. Even if you are in the refinement realm, the guards are willing to recruit you."

Is it because my methods are dirty enough and my mind is meticulous enough, so I am admitted in an exceptional way?

Yes, Yinluo, who is half of Nanban blood, expressed his appreciation for me when he solved the tax and bank case.

The serious-faced Yin Gong added: "Of course, the main reason is that the eldest princess recommended you."

Princess? ! Xu Qi'an was shocked again.

Who is the eldest princess and why does she recommend it? I don't know her at all. Well, I did hear about her in Yunlu Academy.

However, we have never met, why did she recommend me to the watchman?

Xu Qi'an was full of confusion and incomprehension, and the two silver gongs seemed to have no intention of solving his doubts. Or maybe they don't know it themselves.

"In addition to these, the reason why the two adults did not report me is"

Li Yuchun smiled and said, "You should know the duty of the watchman."

Zhou Shilang, who supervised officials' embezzlement of money and food from the Mexican state treasury, was not in the same camp as the gangsters. Even Zhou Shilang's downfall was also fueled by the gangsters' organization. Xu Qi'an suddenly realized.

"Sooner or later, Zhou Shilang will be finished. We have already started to deal with him. It's just your little trick that helped us speed up the progress." The serious-faced Yin Luo said.

Li Yuchun glanced at him and said, "Master Sun, according to the previous agreement, I will accept this person. Please give us a little space to talk."

Yin Luo, surnamed Sun, did not leave, but stared at Xu Qi'an: "You have the right to choose, follow him or follow me."

"There is not much difference in power between the two of us, but he is a very reasonable person, and he doesn't know how to adapt. It's like living with his gong, but with my gong, he can buy a house in the inner city within three years at most. It’s a nice little courtyard.”

After working for three years, a flat in the capital is really an irresistible temptation. Xu Qi'an tactfully rejected Sun Yinluo's solicitation, saying:

"During the tax and bank case, Mr. Li gave me a chance to redeem my merits. I will always remember this kindness. I want to work under his hands."

This is only one of the reasons, the other reason is that he is unwilling to go against his heart and do too many "fishing for sideways" activities.

Sun Yinluo nodded slightly, approvingly said: "It's a good thing to know how to repay kindness."

He went out without hesitation.

When the door was closed, Li Yuchun pointed to the chair opposite, and said with a gentle smile: "Sit down, let me introduce myself, my officer Li Yuchun, I will be your boss in the future, you can call him that directly. If you feel uncomfortable, you can also call Mr. Li." Can."

Calling you Brother Chun, is it okay? Xu Qi'an took a seat, and called out "Master Li" a little cautiously.

"When you do things under my command, you must have a clear conscience. You must remember this." After Li Yuchun warned, he began to introduce the watchman organization:

"Among the watchmen, the bottom ones are white servants, who have no establishment, and do odd jobs. The second is Tonggong, which is a serious watchman, at least in the Qi training state, with a monthly salary of five taels of silver and two stone meters. Go up It is a silver gong, enjoying the treatment of a hundred households.

"Above the silver gongs is the gold gong, which is the highest-level position. There are only ten gold gongs in Dafeng capital, and they are directly under the orders of Duke Wei."

Xu Qi'an nodded, he knew this common sense, and Wei Yuan was the leader of the gangster organization.

"Responsibility of arresting officers, supervising all officials, and guarding the capital. You will gradually become familiar with the specific business." Li Yuchun looked at Xu Qi'an:

"You are now at the peak of refinement. I have two suggestions: one, accumulate merits slowly and wait for opportunities. Two, pay four hundred taels of silver, and I will open the gate of heaven for you."

Xu Qi'an did not hesitate: "I will choose the second one."

Li Yuchun squinted his eyes: "It's quite rich."

"Miss Caiwei from Sitianjian lent it to me." Xu Qi'an dumped the blame on the big-eyed beauty without blushing.

Li Yuchun nodded: "I'll arrange for you to change your household registration first and go through the relevant procedures."

After he finished speaking, he went out, and after a while, he brought in the squint-eyed young man and the unsmiling young man.

"Song Tingfeng." The man who squinted his eyes when he laughed introduced himself, looked Xu Qi'an up and down: "You can, come in and become a colleague?"

"Zhu Guangxiao." After the unsmiling young man finished speaking, he stopped talking.

Xu Qi'an followed the two to go through the entry procedures. On the way, Song Tingfeng chatted casually:

"It's generally easier to do things with Mr. Li, and there are not so many intrigues. The downside is that you have to be cautious when making money. It doesn't matter if you are petty, don't go too far."

"Then can you return the thirty taels of silver to me?" Xu Qi'an stared at him sincerely.

Song Tingfeng returned with a more sincere look: "When did I receive your money?"

Bitch! Xu Qi'an grinned: "Oh, I misremembered."

"By the way, we are going to Jiaofang Division tonight, shall we come together?" Song Tingfeng sent an invitation.

I hate this kind of decadent officialdom communication Xu Qi'an smiled: "Okay."

After completing the formalities, Song Tingfeng took him to the depths of the yamen, explaining as he walked: "After entering the job and changing people, there is another process, the qualification test."

"Test qualification?" Xu Qi'an recalled the scene of pressing his hand on the crystal stone to test his battle qi level.

"It's Wei Gongding's rules and the establishment process." Song Tingfeng said: "They are "wisdom", "strength" and "questioning the heart".

With that said, they came to an attic, stepped over a high threshold, and entered the hall on the first floor. There were two poems hanging on the bearing pillars:

I wish to serve Shachen with my heart.

Not for self-interest.

"This is written by Duke Wei, to warn and warn us." Song Tingfeng said.

"Obviously, it's useless." Xu Qi'an gave him a sideways glance, pointing out something.

Song Tingfeng pretended not to understand, and led him inside, "You are in the refinement state now, so you don't need to test your combat power. Test your intelligence first."

He summoned the officials in the attic and ordered them to go down.

After a while, two officials came in, holding a brocade box in each hand.

Song Tingfeng smiled and said: "The brocade boxes in the hands of the two of them, one is empty and the other has something in it. You can choose one of them to ask, but you can only ask one question."

"And among them, there is one who only tells lies, and the other who only tells the truth."

Song Tingfeng said "Hey": "You have a stick of incense time to think, I can't give you any hints."

Zhu Guangxiao reminded concisely: "This question is difficult, you should think carefully."

Song Tingfeng nodded: "Although Duke Wei said it was just a small game, very few people could guess correctly. Although I realized it after the fact, it has already passed a stick of incense time.

"It is said that only the adults of Jinluo can understand this problem within twenty breaths."

The official lit a stick of incense and placed it aside.

I don't know how many such simple logic questions I have gnawed in my previous life.

Xu Qi'an turned his head and asked the official on the left: "If you were him, what would you tell me?"

The official was a little confused, as if he didn't expect Xu Qi'an to ask such a question, after thinking for a while, he said in a muffled voice: "There is nothing."

Xu Qi'an nodded, and reached out to press the brocade box in the hand of the yamen servant on the right: "The things are in this brocade box."

Song Tingfeng opened his mouth, and looked at his paralyzed companion with a stiff face: "How long?"

Zhu Guangxiao's tone was a bit gloomy: "It's not counting the officials' stupefied effort, twelve breaths."

The air was silent for a second, Song Tingfeng cupped his hands, and shook his head helplessly: "You can solve the tax and bank case, not because a blind cat meets a dead mouse."

He knew someone like Xu Qi'an, and Li Yuchun was one of the chief judges of the tax and bank case. At that time, Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao were outside chasing down the non-existent monster.

After the tax bank case was solved, as a participant in the case, he naturally knew of Xu Qi'an's existence.
