Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 49 Testing
Wang Hai had just finished his dinner and went to the backyard to practice boxing as usual, both to help digest his food and to exercise his skills.

However, less than a meal's time had passed when the old servant of the family appeared at the door of the pavilion in the backyard.

"Something?" Wang Hai finished a set of boxing, gathered his breath, and turned to look at the old servant. Normally, his family would not disturb him when he was practicing, but now there must be something wrong.

"Master, Captain Yang Qian is here to visit. He is waiting in the front hall drinking tea."

"Yang Qian? Tell him to go to the study and wait for me. I'll be there in a minute." Wang Hai thought for a moment, then turned around and started fighting again. There were still five rounds of homework to do today, so he would finish them first before going to see Yang Qian.

Half an hour later, Wang Hai saw Yang Qian standing up to greet him in the study.

"I am here to see the Chief Constable. Please forgive me for the inconvenience."

"It's okay. I have nothing to do at home except practicing martial arts. Your coming here can help me relieve my boredom. Tell me, what's the matter that can't wait until tomorrow?" Wang Hai leaned back in the chair casually, then smiled and motioned Yang Qian to sit down and talk.

"Captain, this is the secret investigation mission you assigned me earlier. I am ready to start. I am worried that there will be too many people in the police station, so I came here privately to report."

"Oh? You're really quick, it's only been a few days? Tell me, what are your thoughts? Where do you plan to start?" Wang Hai was quite surprised. He thought Yang Qian would need a month or two to slowly figure this out, but he didn't expect that he would be ready to start after just a few days?

After all, he is a man of swift and decisive character. I just don't know if this matter is well-targeted or just a hasty response.

"Captain, we are going to investigate the case openly and covertly. The first cases we have chosen are the "7th year of Xuanding, 46 carts of ironware were robbed" from the A-class and the "Missing people in the mine" from the D-class."

It's just an idea, not much progress, so I'll just say a few words.

After listening to this, Wang Hai thought for a moment and said, "Both of these cases are well chosen, but they are quite difficult. Are you sure you can handle them?"

Whether it is the missing persons case or the iron robbery case, both of them are definitely directly related to the garrison, and if you dig deeper, you will definitely get something. But at the same time, it is also because of this that you will inevitably encounter layers of obstacles deliberately set up by the other party in the case, and the difficulty is definitely much higher than other related small cases.

"Don't worry, Chief Constable. Although the case is difficult, I am confident that I can solve it. After all, the difficulty of this case is not the case itself, but the people who deliberately make it look difficult. As long as we are determined to solve the case, I think these two cases will not be more difficult than the case of the Yao family in Erzhang Lane."

Yang Qian was not just bragging. He had made a rational analysis.

The key to these two cases is the result of Wei Shu's meddling in them. Someone helped to cover up and deliberately created the illusion that the case "cannot be handled."

It's not difficult to check if you really want to.

The only thing I'm worried about is whether the other party will notice it and try to stop me.

Seeing Yang Qian so confident, Wang Hai naturally would not find fault. He smiled and encouraged: "Just do as you planned first, and keep it confidential. If you encounter any trouble later, just let me know in time, and I will help you find a solution.

If there is anything you need my assistance with, you can tell me. "

This is exactly what Yang Qian was waiting for. How could he be polite?
Yang Qian said quickly, "Captain, I need your help. Can you give orders to each squad to clean up old cases, especially those from a long time ago? This will give us better cover."

"That's no problem. I'll give orders to the squad tomorrow to help cover your movements. But you have to be careful, Yang Qian."

"Thank you for the reminder, Chief Constable. I will be very careful in everything I do."

After finishing the business, Yang Qian did not dare to stay in Wang Hai's house any longer, but before leaving, he suddenly took out a small box of candy from his arms and placed it on Wang Hai's desk. "Captain, this is the candy beads sent by an informant in Masheng Lane. It is said that it is made of several kinds of fruits boiled and cooked, and it is not available on the market. I think the chief constable's granddaughter likes sweets, so I sent it here to make the little girl happy."

Wang Hai blinked his eyes when he heard this, looked at the colorful sugar beads in the box that exuded a slightly sweet fragrance, and then looked at Yang Qian who was bending over with a flattering look on his face. The expression on his face soon became meaningful.

"Haha, Yang Qian, you are a very thoughtful person. The yamen master said before that you are not like the rough guys in the police station. You are more skilled in interpersonal relationships than many officials, and you are better at managing yourself. Now it seems that you have a long-term vision in other aspects!

OK, I'll take the candy first. But I can't say whether it tastes good or not."

"I understand. If this candy doesn't taste good, the chief constable can just throw it away. If it's still edible, I will do my best to supply it to the chief constable later."

However, Wang Hai did not respond. He just waved his hand, indicating that Yang Qian could leave.

The box of sugar beads did not end up in the hands of Wang Hai's little granddaughter. Instead, it was placed on the table of Cui Mingsheng, the head of the government office, the next morning.

Wang Hai came early in the morning. On the one hand, he wanted to relay Yang Qian's thoughts on the secret investigation to Cui Mingsheng last night, and on the other hand, he wanted to get this box of sugar beads.

"He is quite impatient. But it is normal for him to behave like this at his age." Cui Mingsheng picked up a candy bead from the box with a smile, looked at it carefully and put it back.

"Yang Qian is indeed a man of swift and decisive character. He is also ambitious and energetic. However, he is still a little too ambitious. He will need more training before he can succeed."

"Old Wang, don't cover for him. The candy beads are already in front of us. Why are you hitting them? He is just a wolf cub who looks three steps ahead! Is it necessary for you to cover for him?
Believe it or not, even if things fail this time, he will continue to try elsewhere. After all, the sugar beads are a big business, and they have been doing it in various places. As long as you keep everything in place, you will become very rich.

Who is not tempted?

Moreover, he only dared to move the garrison because we asked him to do so.

Very clever! "

Wang Hai admired Yang Qian, a young man with a clean background, capable of doing things and smart. He thought he would be successful in the future and wanted to keep a good relationship with him. So he covered for Yang Qian in front of Cui Mingsheng several times. He did not shy away from Cui Mingsheng about this.

Wang Hai smiled and said, "Your Excellency is wise. Yang Qian is indeed a smart man who knows how to choose the right time. But isn't it too early to start the candy business now?"

"It's not too early to say it."

"Sir, I don't quite understand."

"If the private candy issue is used as a means of diverting attention, do you understand?" Cui Mingsheng smiled and changed the way he put it.

Wang Hai was awakened by this sentence, his face suddenly understood, and he said admiringly: "If we use the private candy to attract Song Qixun's attention, then it will be more difficult for him to notice us when we secretly investigate his dealings with those parasites in the police station.

Your Excellency, this is a brilliant plan!"

"Haha, planning comes first, and the important thing is to respond. The candy-smuggling thing should have been done a long time ago. It's just that it was delayed until now in order to show weakness to the enemy.

Didn't Yang Qian do it both overtly and covertly? Let's follow suit and give Song Qixun a double portion both overtly and covertly! It depends on whether he swallows it all or has other tricks up his sleeve. "
