"I'm asking you a relatively private question. If you don't want to answer it, then don't answer it."
Ou Junpei didn't say anything immediately. He was wondering what Xu Qian wanted to ask him. Xu Qian didn't care what the other person was thinking and asked him directly, "How much is your salary?"
Why does Xu Qian want to know this? If the problem of a large appetite is solved, his need for money is not that big, and now that he has received 500,000 yuan from the game official, he no longer needs to worry about money recently. What he actually wanted to know was whether Han Qianqian had deducted his payment.
Ou Junpei breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Xu Qian was going to ask some confidential question, but it turned out to be this.
Although the salary can be considered a little secret, it is not a secret to the Special Branch. Although in order to avoid being suspected by family members, the Special Branch also pays wages to two bank cards, and has prepared a set of excuses for its members to use high income sources when they are suspected by family members, but this is really not considered a high-income source. What a secret.
"Mr. Xu, I am a civil servant, and my salary is several times higher than that of ordinary civil servants. But if I am a military officer, it is much higher. Moreover, the military officer also has field subsidy, that is, I go out to perform tasks. If I complete the mission, The more effort you put into the mission and the greater the credit, the greater the subsidy will be. Often the subsidy for one mission for military officers is more than a month’s salary for our civilian employees.”
"Can you make money by going on missions?"
"Of course, but when military personnel go out to do tasks, they also work hard with their lives, which is completely different from our civilian counterparts, so we can all take it lightly, and we can only regret that we don't have that ability."
Ou Junpei paused and continued: "In addition, military positions do not always give out money. Sometimes they also reward some physical objects. They are all things that are helpful to enhance strength. I don't know what they are specifically as a civilian. Anyway, I am There’s no need for it.”
"Then what are the strengths of these military personnel in your branch?"
Ou Junpei did not answer immediately this time, because this question was no longer easy to answer.
"Mr. Xu, actually I don't know much about the military affairs side, but I think they are not as good as you, otherwise they could just become external martial arts cultivators. There is no need to work in the bureau full time." Ou Junpei He was also smart, and even if he answered Xu Qian's questions vaguely, he neither offended Xu Qian nor broke his discipline.
"Oh? Is it good to hire external martial arts cultivators? Do all military personnel want to become external martial arts cultivators?"
Ou Junpei smiled bitterly in his heart, you are like this, you are clearly asking me to praise you! You yourself are an external martial arts cultivator!
Ou Junpei thought about it, but it was certainly not the case when he said it.
"Externally employed martial arts cultivators are simply the dream of military officers. Not only are they highly paid, they receive much more training resources, but they also have a high degree of freedom. In a company, externally employed martial arts cultivators are almost at the top of their career plans. , being able to become an external hire is a complete success for them.”
"Is it that difficult to become an outsider? It should be enough if you have the strength."
"The difficulty is that the strength is not there!" Ou Junpei was originally confused as to how Xu Qian, at such a young age, could have strength above the Wuzong level. Now it seems that he is a young genius who does not know the hardships of others' cultivation.
Xu Qian is not a martial arts cultivator, he has just been misunderstood as a martial arts cultivator. He cultivates the sea of qi, and the pure spiritual energy merges into the sea of qi. This is orthodox cultivation of immortality. When he refines his physical body, he tempers his whole body with the original spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In the final analysis, what is needed is time. In the environment where demon cultivators and Taoist cultivators live, the difference between the strength and weakness of those cultivators lies in their qualifications, their cultivation resources, their magic skills, their combat skills, and their weapons. In the final analysis, monks with superior conditions in all aspects will improve their level faster than others.
But martial arts cultivators are different. Martial cultivators are just a group of mortals who have not cultivated the Qi Sea, nor do they know how to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They work hard to strengthen the physical body to achieve the transformation of the physical body from the outside to the inside. The body is trained into a physique that is more suitable for absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and then continuously integrates into the rules of heaven and earth. If it conforms to the will of heaven and earth, that is, if it steps into the avenue, it will reach the realm of unity between heaven and man and achieve the level of Martial God.
In other words, martial arts cultivation is very hard and confusing. Those who first embark on the path of martial cultivation should be those who yearn to cultivate immortality but have no method of cultivation. This is somewhat similar to those who create Taoism through demonic cultivation. One is that there is no method, and the other is that there is no qualification. In the end, both martial arts cultivators and demon cultivators embarked on the path of body refining, because they were unable to directly nourish the sea of qi and had to find other ways. It's just that the demon cultivators have a foundation in cultivating immortals and know the way to go, while martial cultivators can only cross the river by feeling the stones. It has been passed down for generations, and it is not clear whether anyone has actually walked this road.
As a demon cultivator, Xu Qian has a hard time understanding the hardships of martial arts. Just like a child from a wealthy family, apart from imagining, it is hard to truly understand how an orphan's growth path is filled with thorns.
Seeing that Xu Qian was silent, Ou Junpei wondered if he had said something wrong, so he could only continue: "The final outcome of the military service is basically doomed. Very few people can move up and be promoted to more critical military positions. If it is higher, the probability of needing to take action will be lower, but once the action is taken, the opponent will also be a more powerful character. Most of them will either die or be disabled, and those who are disabled will be converted into civilian jobs, or directly retire. Converted to external employment Yes, just a very small part.”
"A more critical position in the military service? Is it better than being an external employee?" According to Xu Qian's understanding, one is a promotion with a tenure system, and the other is an employment system with no real power.
"I can't say which one is better. It all depends on the individual. However, full-time members of our Special Branch generally don't leave easily. External employment seems to be more free and relaxed, but you will always get used to it."
This sentence touched Xu Qian a little, because he heard Han Qianqian say something similar last night.
"As a civilian, I can't say that. Those in the military are more particular. They live and die together, and their emotions are deeper than those of us who sit in the office. We are influenced by our ears and eyes. Over time, we will be infected to some extent."
Ou Junpei glanced at Xu Qian from the rearview mirror, "Actually, our civilian staff are more like civil servants in other agencies, except that the salary is higher, while their military staff form the real Special Branch."
Ou Junpei's tone was full of envy and reverence. Xu Qian did not say anything more on this issue, but changed the subject and said, "I heard Director Han say that the situation is quite bad now. How is the South China Sea?"
When he heard about this topic, Ou Junpei didn't dare to speak out. It was obvious that this was a standard sensitive topic, okay? Although Xu Qian cleverly added Director Han's tiger skin, Ou Junpei still didn't dare to say another word.
"Mr. Xu, please don't make things difficult for me. How can I know such a secret?" Ou Junpei's tone was bitter, and he didn't know whether he really didn't know or was pretending not to know.
Xu Qian was not embarrassed, but said to himself: "The mass base of the martial arts cultivators in the Tang Dynasty is better, but it is not necessarily that strong. As long as we are well organized here, we can give the people from the Tang Dynasty a hard blow." It shouldn’t be a problem.”
Xu Qian was obviously full of nonsense. He only went to the Tang Empire once, and the time was not even 24 hours. The only martial artist of the Tang Dynasty he had seen was an old man in black. What I'm talking about now is just based on the phrases I got from Han Qianqian and Fatty, and I used them to trick the other party after I figured it out.
How did Ou Junpei know that this was Xu Qian's routine? He naturally didn't know what Han Qianqian had said to Xu Qian, let alone Xu Qian's role and strength. He just received an order to send Xu Qian to At the airport, this young man is going to the headquarters to sign an external martial arts training agreement. How many secrets Xu Qian knew, Ou Jun and Bacon couldn't guess, and he didn't dare to guess. He only knew that he couldn't afford to offend an external martial arts cultivator.
If you say too much for fear of making a mistake, if you say nothing at all for fear of offending others, the most compromise way to deal with it is to just say it along. That is to say, if Xu Qian knows, he will say a few more words. If he doesn't know, he won't mention it.
After Ou Junpei figured this out, he pretended to be relaxed and responded, "It's quite serious. Let's take care of it in Nanhai. I heard that a few big things happened over there in Dongshan, and the branch there is in a state of distress." After saying this, he It felt like he had said too much, and Xu Qian didn't mention anything about Dongshan, but because their branch had been discussing the situation there in the past few days, they started talking as if they were chatting in the bureau.
