Xu Taiping left the judge's mansion.
On the way back to the fast squad, I was still thinking about the gains and losses of the deal with Xia Xueyi.
Definitely not a loss.
Although that pile of concentrated ore powder is valuable, it is really of no use to me. Even if I want to build new weapons, I don't need those ore powder. Among my trophies are higher-grade metal ores and metal ingots.
Those mineral powders are useless in my eyes.
It would definitely not be a loss if he could come back with a seventh-grade head catcher.
Moreover, I have too many good things in my hand. I can get a lot of good things after every battle. I only have a lot of good things like Mijie and Qiankun Bag.
It's really not that rare to have so much mineral powder.
on the contrary.
The position of head catcher may not seem to be of high rank, but it is a formal transition from a petty official to a court official.
It can be said to be a class breakthrough.
A small step, but it is a ceiling that most people will never be able to break through in their lifetime.
From now on.
Even if you can only be promoted and transferred within the system of police officers, the upper limit is still very high.
Above the county-level arresters, there are also state-level arresters and state-level arresters.
An ordinary police officer in the state starts as a seventh-grade officer.
The head catcher is from the fifth level or even the fifth level.
Even Confucianism cultivators, how many of them can reach the fifth rank?
There is Shenjing above the state.
The arresting system of Shenjing City has been directly controlled by the six gates, and the strength is enough to be one of the thirty-two divine arrests. This level is only slightly lower than those big bosses in the court.
Anyway, the point is that I, Xu Taiping, have a clearer path to progress.
The rest is left to time.
Anyway, let me get this benefit first.
As soon as Xu Taiping walked to the door of the police squad, he heard someone coughing behind him.
Turn around sharply.
I saw it was Feng Shibo, Jiao Kaicheng's master.
It suddenly became clear.
The man named Jiao started to get anxious.
hehe.
What were you doing earlier?
With such a little courage, he still fights for power with Xia Xueyi.
They only know how to paint a big pie but don't want to give actual benefits, so go ahead and play with it.
Thinking this, he cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Feng, what a coincidence."
Feng Shibo smiled gently and said, "It's no coincidence, I've been waiting for you for a while."
"Panic, panic," Xu Taiping quickly confessed: "What important matter does Mr. Feng have to find me?"
Feng Shibo nodded: "Looking for a quiet place to chat?"
"please."
Xihe Building.
In the private room.
After three rounds of tea.
Xu Taiping said: "Mr. Feng, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Feng Shibo hummed, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and asked calmly: "Brother Xu, are you really planning to side with Judge Xia?"
Xu Taiping heard this.
He sneered secretly.
As expected, this is what happened.
But Feng Shibo's speaking skills are very inferior.
When it comes to taking sides in the officialdom, how can anyone ask so straightforwardly?
In officialdom, the most important thing is to be reserved.
It is not to offend anyone.
It is versatile and versatile.
If you ask such a straightforward question, you are just trying to offend people.
In other words... he didn't take me seriously at all, just like asking an insignificant pawn.
Thinking like this, he laughed and said: "Mr. Feng, don't be joking. I don't stand for whom. I'm just a small policeman. I don't have any choice. I can't just do whatever the adults say."
Feng Shibo sneered: "That's not what you said before."
"Mr. Feng, I had that attitude in front of the prefect before, which is more proof of my situation. It's just that you didn't see my attitude in front of other adults. Hehe, I'm not afraid of your laughter. I also had that attitude in front of all adults. "
"you……"
"Mr. Feng, you don't really think that I, a mere little detective, am qualified to get involved in the competition between two adults, do you?"
There was a flash of anger in Feng Shibo's eyes.
But he still endured it: "You clearly agreed to work with Mr. Jiao to solve the Mingyue Tower case, why didn't you report it afterwards?"
"Isn't it reasonable to report the case to the judge first?"
"You are using strong words to make sense."
"Mr. Feng, if you think so, there's nothing I can do about it. It doesn't matter what you say. Anyway, I'm just an insignificant little catcher. I have no qualifications or strength to compete with you."
When Feng Shibo heard this, he took action.
"boom--"
There was a loud bang.
Plates, bowls and teacups jumped up one after another.
Tea was spread all over the table.
Even the edges of the windows rustled.
The atmosphere in the private room became tense instantly.
Feng Shibo held the edge of the table with both hands, looked down at Xu Taiping, gritted his teeth and said, "You are making fun of Mr. Jiao!"
Xu Taiping was still sitting.
Not just sitting.
Even still calm.
He was playing with the delicate pastel rim cup in his hand leisurely and contentedly, without even looking at Feng Shibo.
He said lightly: "Mr. Feng, slapping the table won't scare anyone to death, and it's even less useful to me."
As he spoke, he put the tea cup on the table.
Get up and leave.
He only left one sentence: "Master Jiao and I have come this far, and the responsibility is not mine."
The moment he closed the door, he added: "I'll treat you to this meal, you're welcome."
Go out.
He sighed secretly.
The person named Feng is still a master.
The level is very average.
Especially his eloquence is really average.
For Jiao Kaicheng to become what he is now, the surname Feng is "indispensable".
Um.
It's also possible that my "backstab" allowed Feng and Jiao to break their defenses, and they did such a substandard thing out of anger.
But, same.
It is difficult to become a great tool.
Really inferior to Xia Xueyi.
Xia Xueyi is not a good guy, he is a standard old fox.
No matter how clever the method is, it doesn't matter.
But there is an advantage: you can afford it and put it down.
If you say kill, kill.
Just say yes.
If a deal fails to be negotiated, immediately prepare for the second one. Make concessions when necessary and make promises when necessary. It’s very straightforward.
In contrast, Jiao Kaicheng seems to have a lot of money, but in fact he is muddy, slimy, and very stingy.
In such a comparison, the gap is really big.
My choice was indeed the right one.
No matter what happens in the future, get the current benefits first.
Just don’t accept painting cakes.
Return to the police squad.
Chatted with Tan Zhiqiang for a while, then went back to his room to practice.
Automatically hang up.
Efficiency is fast.
The county-level police squad does not have so many tasks and spends most of its time practicing.
For monks, the most important task is to practice. Being a policeman or an official is also for practicing. If you are busy all day and your feet are hitting the back of your head, not many monks choose to do this.
Xia Xueyi, Jiao Kaicheng and others are no exception. Most of their daily work is handled by their masters and subordinates, and they spend most of their time practicing.
Xu Taiping was busy with work and could only practice at night.
But the efficiency of automatic cultivation is high if I can't stand it, so I make rapid progress.
Otherwise, why would he be promoted to third-rate in two months?
June twenty-three.
Early in the morning.
Xia Xueyi's master, Lin Xiao, greeted Xu Taiping and Xia Zhiqiang: "Come, come, come with me to the prefect's mansion."
Xu Taiping and Tan Zhiqiang looked at each other.
Seeing the excitement in each other's eyes.
But he asked deliberately: "Master Lin, why are you going to the prefect's mansion?"
Lin Xiao waved his fan lightly: "Don't act stupid, I'll give you two promotions."
"really?"
"Haha, the three chief officers have arrived and are waiting for you two."
Follow Lin Xiao into the prefect's mansion.
Xu Taiping immediately felt the tense atmosphere.
Inside the meeting hall.
The three magnates, Jiao Kaicheng, the prefect, Shao Zhengye, the county magistrate, and Xia Xueyi, the judge, sat in a fan shape on chairs at the court gate.
Jiao Kaicheng is in the middle.
Shao Zhengye is on the left.
Xia Xueyi is on the right.
The three of them stared at Xu Taiping with different expressions.
Shao Zhengye had a gentle face.
Xia Xueyi's eyes were smiling.
Jiao Kaicheng's face was as cold as frost, his eyes were cold, and he pierced Xu Taiping's face like a knife.
After a long time, he took out an appointment letter, raised his hand, took it out, and went straight to Xu Taiping. At the same time, he said coldly: "Xu Taiping, very good. Congratulations on your promotion to the police. I hope you will continue to work hard and solve major cases after taking office.
Then he said, "Judge Xia said that you personally promised to annihilate Qiyun Village before July. I have written it down. If you can't see the heads of the first and second village masters of Qiyun Village on the first day of July, I will take you as a ask!"
