When Yu Shisan opened his eyes, he saw a man in brocade clothes, about thirty years old, with a white face and no beard, sitting in the main seat of the living room.
When the father-in-law who called them to wake up saw them opening their eyes, he couldn't help but said sarcastically, "Hey, the three masters are finally awake. The three masters said they had something to come to our manager, but they themselves... Sleeping soundly."
Hearing the father-in-law's sarcasm, the chief catcher didn't dare to talk back. He just smiled and said, "It's really good to sleep in this summer, and the living room of the shipping company is even more comfortable. I'm waiting here." I won’t fall asleep if I wait.”
After hearing what the other party said, the father-in-law was even more angry.
However, the chief steward who was sitting at the top finally said, "Young man, you must not be unreasonable!"
After being reprimanded by the chief manager, the father-in-law who called him Xiaowuzi did not continue to ridicule the chief catcher.
Then the chief steward just took a sip of tea lazily, then he put down the tea cup in his hand, raised his eyelids slightly and said, "I wonder what the chief arrester does for coming to my place?"
Hearing the words of the chief manager, the catcher only smiled and said, "Sir, it's like this. A suspect escaped from our Yamen a few days ago. We received a report. They said that the suspect left by boat from this port. After arriving in Los Angeles, we want to know where the suspect has gone, so we also need the cooperation of the person in charge of shipping."
After hearing the words of the chief arrester, the chief manager became silent again.
The father-in-law who was called Xiaowuzi immediately said, "You really don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. You guys, this is the Shipping Department, not a subordinate agency that specifically cooperates with your investigation. You guys are really treating us as ships when you come and go like this." Is Si a trough? Anyone can come and help him out?"
Hearing Xiao Wuzi's words, the chief catcher's face was somewhat embarrassed, but now that they had something to ask for, no matter how ugly the words were, they could only endure it at the moment.
The chief catcher didn't look at the father-in-law who called him "Little Fifth Son". At that moment, he only took the initiative to smile apologetically at the general manager and said, "General manager, there's nothing we can do about it. You said that if we could do something, who would be willing to bother you?" Where is the steward? Chief steward, please show your respect and help us this time."
However, faced with the chief catcher's plea, the chief steward had no reaction at all.
But the young man just said, "What does your investigation have to do with our Shipping Department? We only care about the movement of cargo ships and filling the national treasury. Your affairs always come to disturb us. This is not the way to show your highness!"
Hearing Xiao Wuzi's words, the chief catcher was a little at a loss for a moment. However, Yu Shisan suddenly nodded at the chief catcher, and then Yu Shisan took out an exquisite one from his sleeve pocket. Small glazed jade carvings.
When the chief catcher saw that thing, he naturally knew what Yu Shisan meant. Although the supervisor saw their little actions, he just didn't know.
Then the chief catcher immediately smiled and presented the small glass and jade ornament to the steward. He said with a flattering smile, "Chief steward, this is really the last time for us. You see, I have passed on my ancestral inheritance." I brought my baby here, so please be kind and help me this time."
Manager Liu was not particular about it. After seeing the chief catcher offering something, he just took the treasure from the other person's hand and put it into his own hand to play with.
He looked at it carefully for a while, and then came to the conclusion, "This thing is a good thing, I like it."
Then Manager Liu just said to the chief catcher, "But I can't accept this thing from you for nothing, otherwise people will say that I am corrupt and pervert the law. You tell me the number, and I will let Xiao Wuzi get it for you."
Hearing this, the chief catcher naturally did not dare to report the true number. He only scolded General Manager Liu in his heart for being a prostitute and building an archway. At the same time, he smiled and cooperated and said, "General Manager Liu, between you and me. There is no need to be so polite. You and I are just friends, how can I accept your money?"
However, when General Manager Liu heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "Even friends have to be transparent. Since you say that, I can't accept this thing from you."
Upon hearing the appearance of General Manager Liu, the chief catcher couldn't help but complain in his heart that this man was really hypocritical. But at the moment, the chief catcher could only smile and said, "The chief manager really distinguishes between public and private affairs. Since the chief manager has
If you say this, then I'm not polite. In fact, my gadgets are not worth much. It's rare for Manager Liu to like a penny gadget. If not, the manager would give me a penny. "
After hearing what the chief catcher said, Manager Liu was satisfied and said to Xiao Wuzi, "Xiao Wuzi, go and take a penny and give it to the chief catcher. I bought this thing."
After receiving the order, Xiaowuzi naturally only took a penny and gave it to the chief catcher.
It was obvious that the glazed ornaments were not cheap. The chief catcher could only scold Mr. Liu in his heart, but on the face, he had to smile and said, "Chief manager, what about what I just said? Please help me."
After collecting the things, Manager Liu was finally in a happy mood, and because of this, his hands were only a little looser.
General Manager Liu only said pleasantly, "This is not a problem."
After saying that, he just instructed the little father-in-law beside him: "Xiao Yunzi, please take a few adults to find Manager Nie to take care of them."
After hearing the instructions from Manager Liu, the little eunuch beside him immediately took Yu Shisan and the others to find Manager Nie.
Manager Nie is also a middle-aged eunuch with a fair face and a beardless face. However, compared with the expressionless expression of joy and anger of Manager Liu, this father-in-law really likes to laugh. Although he is short and fat, he is very healthy. Very kind.
After hearing that these people were arranged by General Manager Liu, Manager Nie just smiled and said, "Everyone's business is my business, Nie. Since the ancestors have spoken, I will naturally try my best to cooperate." , Chief Catcher, just tell me how you want me to cooperate with you."
Seeing that Manager Nie was relatively easy to negotiate, the Chief Catcher just rubbed his face that was about to freeze with laughter and continued to apologize, "Manager Nie, cooperation is not a possibility. We are currently investigating a case in which a suspect escaped for his life. We will take the case." According to the report from the servants, they said that the suspect escaped to other areas through the ship in your port. This suspect is very important to us. We need to determine where he escaped to so that we can contact other state capitals to cooperate with us. !」
While he was talking, the chief catcher just slipped another ingot of silver into Manager Nie's hand.
"Manager Nie, I came here in a hurry and didn't prepare anything. We are just getting to know each other, so please help me."
Manager Nie looked at the white money in his hand, and the smile on his face became even brighter, "That's natural."
After saying this, Manager Nie only said to the young eunuchs under him, "Xiao Chunzi, hurry up and call the other stewards on duty at the port of the Shipping Department."
After hearing what Manager Nie said, a thin but clever little eunuch left immediately.
After watching the little eunuch leave, Manager Nie said to the chief catcher, "Everyone, just wait here. I have something else to do and I won't accompany you."
After saying this, Manager Nie left directly.
However, he still had some conscience. Before leaving, he only said to the little eunuch beside him, "I still have something to do. When they come over later, you can tell them that it is my order and let them do their best to cooperate with the chief arrester." .”
The little eunuch said yes, and then Manager Nie left in a hurry.
After that, they waited in the hall for only a moment before hearing voices calling for their godfather from outside.
Hearing this call, the chief catcher felt a chill. What was wrong with these dead eunuchs? Why did they like to recognize their godfather even when they were fine?
However, he still had to smile in front of these dead eunuchs.
After all, if he failed to serve this group of people well in any aspect, he wouldn't be able to accomplish this today.
At that time, it will be extremely difficult to find Manager Liu to come forward.
So even though he looked down upon this group of people, the chief catcher could only pretend to be a grandson in front of them.
The young stewards below were naturally the disciples brought out by Steward Nie.
After they entered the hall, they just looked around, and one of them even asked the people around him, "Where's the godfather?"
After receiving the order from Manager Nie, the young eunuch immediately came out and said, "Manager Nie has something to do, so he's going to do it now. He asked you to come over and ask you to help the chief catcher handle the case."
Hearing this, the group of people didn't say anything. They just looked at the chief catcher up and down.
One of them lowered his voice and said, "Godfather, do you have any other instructions besides this?"
Upon hearing the man's question, the little eunuch immediately shook his head, and the man seemed to know what he was talking about.
Naturally, he knew the chief catcher, after all, they had cooperated several times.
So the man took the initiative to stand up and say hello to the chief catcher, "I haven't seen the chief catcher for a few days. What are you doing here this time?"
Knowing that these people were just using chicken feathers as arrows, Wang Captou still had to laugh and repeat what he just said to these little stewards.
After speaking, he could only take out the remaining scattered copper coins from his pocket and distribute them to these young stewards.
When those little stewards saw that the chief catcher was giving himself such a small amount of things, they didn't even bother to pretend, "The money the chief catcher is getting is getting less and less. You know the rules here, so It’s hard to get things done with just a little money.”
After listening to the steward's words, Mr. Wang could only grit his teeth and take out all the personal money from under his boots and the bottom of the box.
"Fathers, this is all I have. I really can't afford more. Just be accommodating. I'll treat you to a drink next month."
After hearing what Mr. Wang said, the few people looked at each other and then said, "That's fine. We have some friendship. We can't bear to let Mr. Wang go without work. We'll ask the person who was on duty yesterday to come over." , we don’t care about what they say.”
After hearing what they said, Wang Captou just continued to laugh and said, "That's natural."
Then this group of people also said, "The shipping business is busy now, so I won't accompany you."
