Chapter 161 Punishment and Reward

"Yujiang Daily"

In 27 of the Gregorian calendar, the sixth year of the Republic of China, August [-], the twentieth of the lunar calendar.

At around [-]:[-] p.m. on the same day, the Salt Police of the Second Anti-Smuggling Team of the Transportation Bureau and Chang Xian, a major of the Infantry of the Ninth Mixed Brigade, ran into the bandit leader Xin Lianke on the west bridgehead section of the Shuidong Bridge.

The two sides then fought.The second anti-smuggling team used Ganning heavy machine guns and burst guns, and cooperated with the staff of the Yujiang Public Wharf Security Company led by Chang Xian to...

At [-]:[-], the gangsters were wiped out, and the salt police led by Chang Ying, the captain of the second anti-smuggling team, sacrificed three people.Chang Xian, Major of the Ninth Mixed Brigade Infantry, led the Yujiang Public Wharf Security Company. More than half of the staff were killed or injured. Chang Xian died for the country...

I would like to express my deep condolences to Chang Xian, the infantry major of the [-]th Mixed Brigade, the salt police of the [-]nd anti-smuggling team, and all the staff of the Yujiang Public Wharf Security Company who sacrificed their lives for social peace and prosperity......

It is hereby announced that the "Fire Dragon" seen by passers-by is actually a musket used by the second anti-smuggling team, not a first-class magic with strange powers and chaotic gods as rumored in the society,......

I hope that the public must not listen to the rumors in the market, and repeat the mistakes of Shengongquan...

…………

This is used to deceive the people of Yujiang.

The second anti-smuggling team covered up the secret affairs, the guardianship office concealed the chaotic behavior of Adjutant Chang, and the Daoyin Office and the Yujiang Patrol Office covered up their own ineffective dereliction of law and order.

Everyone is happy with this announcement.

The fight between the second anti-smuggling team and Adjutant Chang involved a lot.Everyone has some negligence in their duties, so in order to prevent the society from criticizing and criticizing, this announcement was made after discussion.

But the matter remained the same, the restlessness from the outside world was dispelled by this announcement, but the earthquake in Yujiang's officialdom itself had just begun.

The announcement used to deceive the public cannot be deceived by the guardian envoy Guan Chunwu.

On the afternoon of the 27th, not long after Adjutant Chang died, at [-]:[-] a.m., the patrol officers from the Yujiang Police Department came here to provide support, but they were unable to do anything in the face of the severed limbs and wreckage all over the place.

Not long after, the guardian envoy's office, who was informed of the news, also came. The leader was Mi Chunhui, who had stopped Wu Qing and Chang Ying outside the Ninth Mixed Brigade's station. Obviously, he had stopped Wu Qing and Chang Ying earlier. At that time, it was just the responsibility and didn't know what happened.

When he came to the scene, he saw the corpse of Adjutant Chang. His face was gloomy and his nose was red, needless to say. He wanted to disarm all the salt police, but faced with two Qianning heavy machine guns and the cold eyes of the salt police , his face turned into a pig liver color, and he didn't dare to mention the nonsense of disarming again.

Afterwards, there was a joint on-site clean-up, before reporters from various newspaper offices took substantive photos of the scene, and cleaned up.

The ammunition and the huge amount of Kuyin were all transported back to the second anti-smuggling team.Well, it will be transported back by the foreman Wu Qing.

When transported back to the Luck Bureau, Xi Xuanyue was overjoyed, and Wu Qing who glanced at Xi Xuanyue, her lowered eyes flickered, seeming to have deep meaning.

At [-] o'clock that night, Guan Chunwu, the guardian envoy who had left Yujiang in the morning, arrived in Huixian County, and was furious when he received a telegram from Yujiang.

He didn't expect that he had only left Yujiang County for half a day, and this kind of thing happened in his backyard.

It was Adjutant Chang who forged the seal again and stormed the Qiyun Bureau.The Destiny Bureau came back again and directly killed Adjutant Chang...

But this meeting involved a dispute between the government and the court, which was more important to him, so he sent another adjutant back to handle the matter with full authority.

The next day, August 28th, Adjutant Gu Zhenshan returned to Yujiang with Guan Chunwu's order.

Although it was said that he had full authority to deal with it, Gu Zhenshan did not finish all the affairs that day, and his subordinates ran to the telegraph office every three days.

Apparently, after Guan Chunwu's detailed information was reported, Guan Chunwu's remote control command decided the outcome.

On the 28th, the punishment orders of various public offices were issued.

Dao Yin and the head of the first section of the Dao Yin Office were fined three months of salary for improper handling of the Shi Dahai case.

Huang Yun'an, director of the Yujiang Patrol Department, was fined half a year's salary and demoted to a lower rank.The crime is due to lack of strict control. The beginning of the Shi Dahai case was that the head of a sub-station corrupted good people as private prostitutes, so this series of incidents can all be counted on it.Huang Yun'an was also given the heaviest punishment.

The magistrate of Yujiang County was demerited and given a warning.The director of the sub-station who was shot dead by Shi Dahai was the nephew of the county governor. The county governor participated in the initial suppression of the Transportation Bureau.

But when it came to the Luck Bureau, the result was a bit strange.

There is no doubt that the Luck Bureau is the biggest victim.

Therefore, the keynote of dealing with the fate is mainly to appease.

On the morning of the 29th, a new telegram came.

According to the official rank, the responsibilities are different. All the members of the Transportation Bureau are rewarded with 50 to [-] yuan in silver, and their salary is increased by [-] to [-] yuan, and some of them have increased their ranks.

It's money and officials—a very direct and effective means of appeasement.

But a very acute problem followed.

Shi Dahai lynched and killed officials first, followed by Yan police who killed Adjutant Chang.

Especially the latter, even if you have physical evidence to prove that Adjutant Chang forged the documents, it should be handled by Guan Chunwu himself, not that you can kill him by asking the luck bureau.

It is a privilege to cut first and play later, but Qi Yunju did not have this privilege, but did it twice in a row.

Your loss is a loss, so how should it be calculated?
If there is no penalty for this, in case someone uses it as a precedent in the future, "If the bureau can do it, I can do it too."

This is messed up.

Gu Zhenshan's handling opinion is to execute Dahai by shooting as a warning to others, and the death of Adjutant Chang will not affect the entire anti-smuggling second team, and hand over the salt policeman who killed Adjutant Chang, and if he does not kill him, he will be locked up for half a year and a year. .

Wu Qing, who heard the news, almost ran away.

Unexpectedly, when facing Adjutant Chang before, Xi Xuanyue was almost at a loss and lost his calculations. She acted like a fool, but this time she acted extremely defensive, arguing with Gu Zhenshan in the guarding envoy's office.

Let’s talk about Shi Dahai first, it’s true that he’s guilty, but it’s not his fault. Is it also his fault to ensure social stability?Furthermore, due to Adjutant Chang's tricks, our Luck Bureau lost more than a dozen elite salt police officers. It was a time when there was a shortage of manpower. A third-level expert would kill wherever he could?You have to keep it, you can fine your salary or seize an official position, but you can't kill people, you have to return them.

Besides, Xi Xuanyue didn't say that it was Wu Qing who killed Adjutant Chang's salt policeman. She just killed him with one bite. She is going to jail!

Gu Zhenshan was helpless, "Director Xi is too serious, how can I let you go to prison, the pill you produced has guaranteed the lives of countless officers and soldiers of my Ninth Mixed Brigade...

He pondered for a while, "Then do as you said. Give Dahai a fine for one year and wait for it to be used... You can watch it this time. As for Chang Xian... you'd better wait for General Guan to come back. Talk to the general yourself."

At this point, Xi Xuanyue took advantage of the victory and pursued, and took advantage of the situation to put forward her own proposition, "There are eighty weird things that were taken to the military camp by Chang Xian's people. When will they be sent back?"

"Let's wait for General Guan to come back and talk about it."

Xi Xuanyue was taken aback by what she said. She thought it was a matter of course, but she didn't want to be blocked, so she asked, "What about the Yujiang Public Wharf Security Company?"

Adjutant Chang did not forge documents himself, but conspired with Li Jieming, the general director of Yujiang Security Company. Adjutant Chang was the principal offender, and Li Jieming was the accomplice.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zhenshan said lightly, "Many of them died..."

Xi Xuanyue didn't realize it, she just nodded and said, "As long as Adjutant Gu makes up his mind."

After chatting for a few more words, Xi Xuanyue, who was sitting in her new car when she left the guardian's office, had a gloomy expression.

From this conversation, it can be seen that Guan Chunwu's reliance on Tianzhu Temple is not lacking in fear.

Adjutant Chang's previous words were all deceiving Xi Xuanyue, but there was one thing that was not wrong.

Tianzhu Temple, a colossal monster...

…………

At this point, the affairs outside the bureau have been dealt with, and then the affairs within the bureau are discussed.

First of all, the salt police who did not choose to stand on the side before, Chang Ying promised not to pursue it, and she really did not.

But Zhan Zhongda's salt police who stood aside were not so simple.

All these salt policemen repeatedly emphasized that they were deceived by Zhan Zhongda, only saying that they were blind, not black-hearted, and hoped that the bureau would give them another chance.

Xi Xuanyue comforted them well, and tricked them all into the trap, then set up the machine gun, disarmed them, went to the tricks, stripped off their uniforms, and put them in prison.

Then came the rewards for the anti-insurgency salt policemen. Feng Chenggui, He Dongchangying and others rewarded silver and officials.

Wu Qing had expected his reward, it must be very big, but it still slightly exceeded his expectations.

5000 silver dollars, an apartment in Shuixi, these are all normal, but the letter of appointment given to Wu Qing is not the official appointment of the ninth-class civilian officer that the salt police should be awarded, but the appointment of the eighth-class police assistant.

After the trial administration, there is the ninth rank, after the ninth rank is the eighth rank, and Wu Qing is promoted directly to the eighth rank, which is an exception.

It's worth explaining here.

Although the Dagan Republic of China learned the Taixi civil service system, which is divided into four levels and nine levels, these nine levels are essentially the nine-rank official system in the feudal period.

Among them, the first and second ranks are Jianren officials, and Xi Xuanyue is at this level.She is Jian Ren's second-class civil servant, that is, the second rank of the old Gan period.

The next three to five ranks are recommended officials.The director of the Yujiang Patrol Department and the governor of Yujiang County are both at this level.

The next six to nine ranks are appointed officials.Chang Ying is the seventh-rank police officer.

As the name suggests, the eighth-ranked police assistant is the assistant officer of the police, and is usually found in the patrol stations of small counties.

The police officer is the chief, and the sergeant is the deputy chief.

In other words, Wu Qing became the deputy captain of the second anti-smuggling team directly from a probationary salt police officer.

Moreover, the second anti-smuggling team has its own political tradition, and under normal circumstances there is no police officer, but if a police officer is established, it means that this person is almost the default captain of the second anti-smuggling team.

If the mind is darker, if Chang Ying dies, Wu Qing can directly succeed the captain on the spot.

As soon as this letter of appointment came out, the teeth of Feng Chenggui, He Dong, and Zengkuo were all sore. Their official rank is the ninth rank of appointment, and the older seniority is the first-class clerk, which is equivalent to the old ninth rank, and the seniority is younger. He Dong is a second-class staff member, that is, Cong Jiupin.

Unexpectedly, Wu Qing, a trial salt police officer, became their second in charge directly after this incident!
Obviously they came first...

This is actually a bit of an extraordinary reward, but after Xi Xuanyue was surprised and delighted, she just made up her mind like this, how can other people comment.

Although it was a bit unbelievable, Feng Chenggui and the others didn't seem too unconvinced.

After all, Wu Qing has the life of a third-level expert in his hands, and his strength is enough to convince the crowd. The credit this time is also considered a great contribution.

Moreover, outsiders don't know, they don't know, Adjutant Chang died at the hands of Wu Qing...

The anger that Adjutant Chang gave to the Luck Bureau was not Wu Qing alone, but everyone. Wu Qing killed Adjutant Chang to vent his anger on all of them and to take a risk for them all.

Then there are all the tricks that can be selected after the salt police are taught. [Red Stove] Not counting, Xi Xuanyue allowed Wu Qing to choose another one.

Adjutant Chang defrauded eighty of the ghostly objects, under the seal of Liu Mingdian, there were still about 30 more, plus more than a dozen of the ghostly objects recovered from the dead salt police and disobedient salt police, there were more than [-]. The pieces are available for Wu Qing to choose from.

But Wu Qing fell in love with a mask at a glance.

【True Nuo Mian · Crooked Mouth Soul Boy】

This strange thing had not been concealed by Adjutant Chang's men before.

When fighting against the crooked-mouthed spirit boy before, Wu Qing was very keen on the effect of this strange thing, ghost control, half immortal body...

But at that time, during the trial period, Wu Qing was not qualified to hold the trick.

Now with this thing, Wu Qing's personal strength can be said to have risen a lot.

In this way, Wu Qing can be said to have gained a lot no matter in terms of missions or his own personal strength.

But Wu Qing, who received the letter of appointment from Xi Xuanyue, bowed his head in thanks, and there was a strange look in his eyes.

When he was transporting the silver and arms back to the transport bureau, he relaxed, and subconsciously glanced at Xi Xuanyue with Jie Jie Sheng.

He still remembers what the medical officer Lao Jiu said about Tianzhu Guan and other disciples of the true preaching sect have another extraordinary path.

But he didn't expect this swipe like a superficial swipe, which almost made him lose his composure, and forced his eyes that were about to widen to narrow.

【Taoist】

Qing Yang ascended to the sky, and the light entered the gap, and found that there were dust in the air, the dust was shaking, and the emptiness was silent.Such are the four virtues, the silence is known as the sky, the shaking is called the feather, and the one who shakes is called the Taoist priest.

Name: Xi Xuanyue
Repair: ? ? ?
Inheritance Divine Weapon:? ? ?
Note 1: The cultivation base of the probed person is two levels higher than that of the holder, and its cultivation base cannot be detected.

Note 2: Congratulations, you accidentally discovered a corner of the truth...

…………

Taoist priest is another name for ancient Taoist priests, people who intend to ascend.Apparently now, like the term Qi practitioner, it is used to refer to certain groups.

And inherit the divine weapon...the divine weapon.

Previously, Jiushoujian was falsely passed on as a magic weapon... Wu Qing did not forget his second main task: kill Lan Jidao and win Dou Muzheng's spear.

There was no clue before, so he kept putting it on hold, but now he couldn't help thinking about it.

Wu Qing joked before that it would not be the rifle of Hot Weapon, right?It was just a joke, and I knew in my heart that this thing could never be a hot weapon.

It's just that this Dou Muzheng Sheng Spear is a thing to fill the inventory, or is it a real fairy weapon?
There aren't many clues, so I don't want to think too much about it for now, but the main task [-] that Wu Qing has been ignoring intentionally or unintentionally before, this time he is thinking about it.
