Qin Shaoyou noticed Hong Xianyou's situation, came over and patted him on the shoulder.
"Why are you crying? Do you think these wines and foods taste too delicious?"
Hong Youyou wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, but his eyes were still red.
He took a sip of ordinary rice wine and nodded vigorously: "It is indeed delicious!"
Then, he looked at the more and more people in Lingjie Town who came to feed the night watchman, and sighed sincerely: "When we walked on the street in the past, people would stay away from us. How could we be like now? A warm welcome..."
"Then do you think it's better now or before?" Qin Shaoyou asked with a smile.
Hong Xuanyou lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "In the past, I felt that being a street-cleaning tiger that everyone was afraid of was very majestic. But now I understand that it was not called majestic before, but sad..."
His voice suddenly turned cold: "A night watchman actually makes the people fear like a demon. Can he still be considered a night watchman? It is really pathetic, hateful, and killable! It's a pity that I understood it too late."
Having said this, Hong Xuanyou raised his head and looked at Qin Shaoyou and asked, "Master Qin, are you planning to send me on my way? Can you wait until I finish eating this meal before leaving a message for my wife, children and children at home?" ?”
Hong Xianyou felt that he was trying to follow in Wu Bufan's footsteps and was tried and executed.
But he didn't feel scared, instead he felt relieved and relaxed.
However, Qin Shaoyou did not agree to his request, but was a little curious: "What are you going to say in the letter?"
Hong Xuanyou turned his head, looked in the direction of his home, and murmured: "I want to tell my parents about my faults and unfilial piety, and ask them to forgive me. I also want my wife to remarry when she meets a good man, so she doesn't have to be a widow for me. What's more, Tell the children to learn my lesson and not to be blinded or blinded by the desire for gain..."
"There is no need to write these words. You can go back and tell them yourself." Qin Shaoyou said.
Then he made another joke: "Of course, if you are not afraid that the grape trellis in the backyard will fall down, just go ahead and ask your wife to remarry."
Hong Xuanyou was stunned for a moment, then turned back to look at Qin Shaoyou, with a bit of expectation and a bit of disbelief in his eyes: "Sir, what do you mean..."
Qin Shaoyou nodded, confirming his guess.
"I plan to rebuild the Demon Hunting Shop in Lingjie Town. I need a few people who are familiar with local affairs. Seeing that your previous performance has been pretty good and you are willing to actively perform meritorious services to reduce your crimes, I plan to let you continue to perform meritorious service in the Demon Hunting Shop in Lingjie Town. I wonder if you are willing?"
"Yes, I am willing, very willing, thank you sir."
Hong Xuanyou responded repeatedly, his face flushed with excitement.
But Qin Shaoyou had a straight face again and said seriously: "Although you were left in the demon-hunting shop in Lingjie Town, your position as patrol officer will be thrown away. From now on, you will be a member of the demon-hunting shop in Lingjie Town." I am a trainee wrestler. I have to stop all the bad habits I developed under Wu Bufan! If I do it again, I will be dealt with severely!"
Hong Xuanyou... No, he is no longer a patrol officer now, he should be called Hong Gongliang.
He put down the bowl in his hand, stood up, straightened his back, and saluted Qin Shaoyou and gave his assurance.
"In the past, I was fooled by lard. Now that you have given me such a chance to change my ways, I will definitely cherish it and be a good person. Please don't worry, sir, and please strictly supervise me!"
"very good."
Qin Shaoyou was very satisfied with Hong Gongliang's attitude and called a yoke officer named Peng Sheng under Zhu Xiucai to him.
"Lao Peng, take a few people to stay in Lingjie Town and rebuild the monster hunting shop for me. When I get back, I will write to Lord Baihu and invite Xiaoqi Guanjian for you."
Peng Sheng was one of the earliest warriors to follow Qin Shaoyou. His character and ability were trustworthy, and he had made many achievements in a series of previous actions.
Therefore, although the night watchmen envied him for being promoted to a small flag officer and taking charge of a town, they were not jealous.
Just like the previous promotions of Zhu Xiucai and Ma Monk to small flag officials, Peng Sheng's promotion also gave many night watchmen hope of transitioning from official positions to official positions.
They believe that as long as they work seriously and make many contributions, Qin Shaoyou will never treat them badly.
"Thank you, sir!"
Peng Sheng was very excited and immediately issued a military order to Qin Shaoyou: "Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely rebuild the demon hunting shop in Lingjie Town to protect the safety of the people."
Qin Shaoyou nodded with satisfaction and pointed at Hong Gongliang: "You can ask him more about the situation in Lingjie Town. At the same time, you should also be responsible for supervising him and not letting him make the same mistakes as before."
"Yes!" Peng Sheng accepted the order.
Qin Shaoyou glanced around.
More and more people in Lingjie Town gathered around to watch the excitement.
So he ordered: "Now go and ask the people in the town to see if they have any cases or grievances. Deal with it while the iron is hot, leave a good impression on the villagers, and reverse the Lingjie Town Monster Hunting Shop in their minds." image of."
According to what Qin Shaoyou learned before, most of the cases that occurred in Lingjie Town were related to Wu Bufan and the demons who colluded with him.
Handling these cases will definitely allow the new demon-hunting shop in Lingjie Town to gain a wave of prestige and trust, which will facilitate subsequent work.
At the same time, it will also allow Qin Shaoyou to gain more support from the people in Lingjie Town.
That's right, just when the people of Lingjie Town were rejoicing because of the destruction of Wu Bufan and the demon ghosts, Qin Shaoyou gained a lot of new power of popular will from these people through [Public Opinion].
After the power of these people's wishes entered Qin Shaoyou's body, it merged with the blood.
Not only did his blood energy become further condensed, but he also gained a hint of special power.
This new power made Qin Shaoyou feel very comfortable, like a fish in the water, endlessly alive.
At the same time, Qin Shaoyou's muscles, bones and internal organs were also nourished and strengthened by the power of people's wishes.
Although the effect is not obvious, the advantage is that there are no side effects and it is continuous.
Seeing that Hong Gongliang had a chance to change his ways, Niu Er also came forward and begged: "Sir, I am also familiar with the situation in Lingjie Town. Can I also stay in the Demon Hunting Shop to make atonement? Even if it is like before, It’s okay to be a non-staff member! Don’t worry, I will definitely change my mind seriously and never make the same mistakes again..."
Qin Shaoyou knew that local snakes like Niu Er sometimes played more roles than Hong Gongliang.
And Niu Er, like Hong Gongliang, although he did some bad things when following Wu Bufan, he still had a bottom line and no human life was touched on his hands.
So after some beatings, Qin Shaoyou asked Niu Er to report to Peng Sheng and continue to be a non-staff member.
At the same time, he did not forget to draw a big pie for him, promising that if he did well and passed the assessment, he would have the opportunity to become a regular employee.
Niu Er was overjoyed and went away with many thanks.
When he walked away, Sun Xianzong came up and said with some worry: "Sir, will there be any problems if these people are left in the demon-hunting shop?"
"We don't have enough manpower now. Those who have not committed serious crimes and have performed meritorious services must be recruited and used. As long as we have strict discipline and appropriate rewards and punishments, we are not afraid of them having problems. Besides, Lao Peng learned a lot of skills from the scholar. There is no problem in controlling these old fritters."
When Qin Shaoyuan came here, he paused and looked at Hong Gongliang and Niu Er, who were busy getting into their roles under Peng Sheng's command, and smiled happily.
"Since bastards like Wu Bufan have turned people into ghosts, then we must transform these ghosts into humans!"
