Shen Hao did not expect that just two days after he returned from the imperial city, the Jingxi Town Fushi Yamen's reward came down.
Naturally, the starting point was not the previous Sword Emperor Tomb in Tukui City. The Xuanqing Guards' performance that time was quite satisfactory and there were even many omissions. Didn't Wu Changhe, the commander at the time, be imprisoned?
Therefore, this edition reward was issued based on the previous concealed case of plague in Pingshun City and the discovery of a strange place.
Ordinary money has no meaning to Shen Hao. What makes him happy are the other four things.
The first thing is that as Jiang Chengcheng hinted at him before, his job title was promoted from the sixth rank of the Hundred Households to the fifth rank of the Deputy Thousand Households.
Don't underestimate this half-level improvement. For most people, they will never reach the fifth level in their lifetime. What's more, Shen Hao is still less than thirty years old.
It's still a matter of real power.
Looking at the entire Jingjiu Dynasty, one can count on one hand all the people who were able to sit in positions of real power and hold the rank of deputy minister at Shen Hao's age.
On the one hand, it is true that Shen Hao has done many major things in the past two years and achieved outstanding results. On the other hand, it was also a coincidence that I boarded the "Black Flag Camp" bus, and because of my knowledge, I was the first to stand on the trend, and my career skyrocketed naturally.
Finally, Jiang Cheng’s care is also essential. Shen Hao was grateful from the bottom of his heart for this superior. Not only did he give him enough trust, but he also gave him enough support, and he would never forget good things. Just like this promotion. If Jiang Cheng hadn't deliberately suppressed the reward and waited for Shen Hao's cultivation to improve before issuing it, Shen Hao would probably have to wait for the next opportunity before he could step into the rank of a fifth-rank official.
It can be said that Shen Hao relied on his own ability, luck and popularity to rise from the fifth rank official position.
Looking at the faces of the colleagues around him who saw the announcement, no one was happy for Shen Hao. I am afraid that only those soldiers of the Xuanqing Guards who had been rescued by him in Tukui City would congratulate him from the bottom of their hearts. Others might not know how to organize him in their hearts.
Even Tang Qingyuan, who had the closest relationship with Shen Hao, smiled a little reluctantly. However, Tang Qingyuan was not malicious, he just didn't accept the difference in his heart. It took him decades to reach the fifth rank, while Shen Hao only took more than two years from Xiaoqi to Deputy Qianhu.
Comparing people to each other can really make people angry.
In addition to the promotion of his job title, Shen Hao has not moved his position and continues to serve as one hundred households in the Black Flag Camp of Fengli City.
But in the past, Shen Hao was a sixth-grade Hundred Household Official, the same grade as the Hundred Household Officials of the local health stations. But now he is a fifth-grade Hundred Household Official, half a grade higher than the chief officials of the local guard stations. This means that From now on, no one will use "double subordinates" as an issue when it comes to the leadership of the Black Flag Battalion.
This is the first plate reward that makes Shen Hao happy. Then the second reward is meritorious service, which is worth four turns!
Counting the fifth rank of First Grade Viscount on Shen Hao, he was promoted to the Second Grade Viscount.
The benefits of the title have not yet been fully realized, but Shen Hao knows that as his title increases, it will invisibly establish a status for him among the upper echelons of the old Jing Dynasty. This status is sometimes no worse than a position, and it is easier to Accepted by many high-ranking officials.
Of course, Shen Hao also had benefits that he could immediately feel after his title and job promotion were promoted: Xuan Qingwei re-approved a house for him, which was three times larger than the previous one, and he could move in at any time.
After being promoted to an official position, there are still two affordable things available in one set.
A new Yanji Knife, and it’s a top-grade magical weapon!
It is said that the Xuanqing Guards usually do not issue high-grade magic weapons until they reach the fifth-grade rank. It is rare for Shen Hao to be issued one from the fifth-grade.
Of course, like the previously issued standard magic weapons, Shen Hao only has the right to use these things but does not own them. Once he leaves office or dies, these things will be taken back immediately.
The last one is matched with this high-grade Yanji knife. A sword technique called "Spectral Slash".
This is the first time Shen Hao has seen a systematic sword technique. In the past, he learned it from the booklets issued by Xuanqing Guards. Most of them were a mixture of tricks from the military. Although their practicality is not low, they can be compared. Not systematic.
So this sword plus a set of sword skills gave Shen Hao what he desperately needed. He still remembers how he was completely suppressed by the transformed Yun Jian in the Yunjian Domain with his sword skills. Now that he has sword skills, he should be able to improve a lot.
In addition to Shen Hao, who is at the top of the list, the rewards are very heavy, and the rewards for the soldiers of the Black Flag Battalion below are also eye-catching. Even the Qianhu guards who had previously reinforced Pingshun City received heavy rewards, and none of them were left behind.
"Follow Master Shen and you will have meat to eat!"
This sentence first came from the Black Flag Camp in Licheng, and later spread to Qianhusuo. At that time, many people disapproved and even sneered. But now, seeing the smiles on everyone's face after being rewarded, it is true that people with the surname Shen can eat meat, and they can eat it legitimately.
That night, Shen Hao held a banquet and called all the people close to him, and a table was set up in the restaurant.
This is a rare achievement for Shen Hao. When he was promoted to the Hundred Household Examination before, he invited Tang Qingyuan.
Wang Jian, Wang Yiming, Tang Qingyuan, Zhu Shou, Chen Tianwen, Liu Kuan, Zhang Qian and Gan Lin all came.
The wine was naturally Wuliangye, and some of the good drinkers said it was very enjoyable. The light drinkers like Wang Jian were scratching their heads and scratching their heads while drinking, and they had to shout "good wine", which made everyone else feel bad for them.
At the end of the meal, the wine was divided into several splashes. Several people, led by Zhang Qian and Gan Lin, got drunk and prepared to transfer to Hong'en Courtyard to continue drinking wine. But Shen Hao didn't go, and went to the teahouse with Tang Qingyuan.
As for Wang Yiming and Wang Jian, they were directly carried home by their attendants. Their drinking capacity was really eye-catching.
Although Shen Hao didn't understand tea, Tang Qingyuan was an expert. He led Shen Hao to a teahouse that he often went to.
The tea room was very quiet. Tang Qingyuan made tea himself, and Shen Hao sat opposite the tea table.
"Why don't you go drink wine with Zhang Qian and the others? You want to talk to me about tea? Here." Tang Qingyuan made a pot of tea, poured a cup for Shen Hao and handed it over.
"Zhang Qian and the others are not going to drink wine, they are just looking for a woman. I'm not in a hurry to go. I just want to talk to Mr. Tang about something."
The atmosphere is very subtle.
At the beginning, Tang Qingyuan was the boss of Shen Hao's boss. At that time, Shen Hao was a small flag official and Tang Qingyuan had hundreds of households. Later, Tang Qingyuan personally sent Shen Hao to the position of the general flag of Black Flag Camp, which opened up Shen Hao's career path to promotion. Then Shen Hao rose through the ranks and was now on equal footing with Tang Qingyuan. Even putting aside Tang Qingyuan's current title of "temporary chief officer", Shen Hao's real power is much greater than that of Tang Qingyuan.
"What's the matter? Are you ready to agree to the marriage last time?" Tang Qingyuan joked, but he felt awkward in his heart, feeling like he was beaten to death on the beach by the waves.
"What do you think, Mr. Tang, of the vacant post of officer in charge of the Thousand Household Office?"
