In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed. During this period, Qin Shaoyou lived directly in the editing factory. In addition to presiding over the cleaning and reconstruction work, he also reads various materials to look for clues related to the mad god.
Early that morning, Zhu Xiucai came to Qin Shaoyou and reported to him: "Duke Gong, according to your order, I transferred people who are good at intelligence work from many yamen. After my personal inspection and After screening, about a hundred people were finally left. Although there are not many people, they are all tested, capable and loyal."
"Well done." Qin Shaoyou put down the document in his hand, raised his head, and gave Zhu Xiucai serious instructions: "Please ask the institute to equip these people with corresponding equipment, and when they are proficient in it, send them to the surrounding suspicious areas." Countries, secretly spy on information related to the mad god, and at the same time monitor the royal families and officials of these countries to see if they are involved in sacrificing the mad god. You will be directly responsible for these people."
"I humbly obey my order." Zhu Xiucai accepted the order. Qin Shaoyou had already mentioned this task to him, so he was not surprised.
Qin Shaoyou felt relieved when he handed these people over to Zhu Xiucai. When it comes to intelligence, Zhu Xiucai is definitely a professional, and the people he brings out are definitely good.
As Qin Shaoyou officially entered the editorial office, he became the most manly governor in history. Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and Cui Yougui, all of his brothers who followed him through life and death, also received promotions.
For example, Zhu Xiucai is now the head of the internal intelligence department of the editing factory. The official position was promoted three levels in a row, surpassing Deputy Qianhu and Qianhu, directly promoted to the town governor. Not long ago, he went to give Cen Biqing a letter of appointment, but he has not yet received a reply from Zuo Zixiong.
The reason why there was such a big improvement was not only Zhu Xiucai's great contribution in assisting Qin Shaoyou, but also another very important reason. After the editing factory completed its purge, many official positions were vacated.
Otherwise, it would not be easy to promote Zhu Xiucai and others to become governors of the town and officials of thousands of households at once.
After Zhu Xiucai finished his report, he was about to bow down and leave. However, Qin Shaoyou stopped him, put away the files, and wanted to go to the institute with him to see if the group of 'lunatics' in the institute had come up with any eye-catching treasures during this period.
The nickname "Madman" was given to the researchers in the institute by the editors.
Because they cause several explosions every day. Even if there is no explosion occasionally, poisonous gas or abnormal energy fluctuations will leak out, making people uneasy.
In this regard, it was Zhang Zhenren and others who strengthened the effect of the magic circle in the institute several times. Otherwise, the impact on the outside world will only be greater.
But today, when Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai arrived at the institute, they did not see explosions, poisonous gas, abnormal energy leaks, etc.
Because everyone in the institute did not work in their own laboratories today, but went to the woods to watch the excitement.
In the dam of the institute, many trees have been transplanted, making the environment here very quiet. The only strange thing is that these trees are all old crooked-neck trees.
At this moment, in one of the old crooked-neck trees, Cui Youyou was being hung up and whipped by Master Zhang. This guy screamed after being whipped, but he refused to give in. He was still shouting: "You are beating the imperial official, why don't you stop quickly! Oops, that's enough. Let me tell you, I am the suppressor now." Envoy, from the fourth rank! You, the dean of the research institute, just have a good name, but no rank at all! A commoner dares to slap the butt of a fourth-rank official! Is it my butt you slapped? You did it It's clearly the face of the Governor, the face of the Great Xia Dynasty!" Qin Shaoyou's face turned green when he heard this.
Can your ass compare to my face? Is your ass as tender as mine? Am I handsome? He took a breath and shouted towards the old crooked neck forest: "Dean Zhang, you can smoke as you like. In this institute, you are the biggest, not to mention the governor, even the cabinet bachelor is useless. Beat this traitor to death and hand it over to the Taoist priests who are good at Maoshan Corpse Art for study." After hearing this, the crackling sound in the woods of Lao Wai Neck became louder, and Brother Cui's screams became louder, which made Ji Ji People outside the factory couldn't help but be curious, thinking that the factory was killing pigs?
Since when did they raise pigs? Zhu Xiucai found Zeng Cong, who was watching the excitement in the woods, and curiously asked: "Old Zeng, what's going on with your senior brother? Why did he get beaten again?"
"Can it still be like this? You are not convinced that Master has become the dean of the institute, and you want Master to abdicate in favor of someone more worthy." Zeng Cong told Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai: "Senior Brother Cui came to see Master today, saying that Master is old and infirm. , we should not occupy the position, but give it to the young people, and then we proposed a duel with the master, and whoever wins will be the dean of the institute."
"It's really Lao Cui's usual style of seeking death." After Zhu Xiucai sighed, he curiously asked: "Zhenzhen Zhang agreed? Lao Cui was defeated? This shouldn't be the case. Lao Cui's cultivation has reached the peak of the fourth level. , there is only one threshold left before becoming a demigod. Master Zhang’s cultivation level seems to be only at the late fourth level, right?"
"How else should I say that ginger is hotter than old?" Zeng Cong told Zhu Xiucai with a smile: "Master did not agree to the challenge of the senior brother, so the senior brother wanted to make a sneak attack, but he took out the nine-turn flying talisman gun and pulled the trigger. It got stuck, and then he summoned the flaming magic sword, but the magic sword didn't want to come out..."
"Is it your fault?" Zhu Xiucai asked. They were not surprised that the Fiery Sword disobeyed orders. This kind of thing had never happened before.
But the ninth-turn flying talisman gun actually fell off the chain at a critical moment, something was obviously wrong. Zeng Cong shook his head and said: "It's not me, but I have discussed the idea of improving the nine-turn flying talisman gun with my master before. He knows this magical weapon very well, and he also knows the senior brother very well. I am afraid he has taken precautions in advance." Zhu The scholar nodded and urged again: "Go on, then."
"When the elder brother saw that both treasures were of no use, he made a spell and chanted a spell to fight with the master. But all his skills were taught by the master. Even if his cultivation level was higher than the master, he was still beaten by the master in every way. I restrained myself first and beat him until he lost his temper..."
"Then Lao Cui lost?"
"No, when he saw that the situation was unfavorable, he threw a supernatural object and detonated it, blowing up the master directly. Thanks to the master bringing several protective treasures, nothing serious happened, but the master was still furious, so he We called all the people in the institute, surrounded Senior Brother Cui and beat him half to death, then hung him up and whipped him."
"..." Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai were both silent. Cui Yougui is really not an ordinary person seeking death. Zeng Cong added: "By the way, Master just issued a new ban in the institute, saying that explosive supernatural items are not allowed to be used."
"Sure enough, behind every ban, there is a lesson of blood and tears. But this time, it was Senior Brother Cui's ass who paid the blood and tears." Qin Shaoyou shook his head and smiled.
He did not watch the excitement, but asked Zeng Cong to take him around the institute and check out everyone's recent research results.
He also helped Zhu Xiucai select a batch of equipment that could be used for spying and monitoring, and also provided requirements to customize a batch of new products.
In the blink of an eye, another half month passed. The auspicious day for Si Xiu to ascend the throne is coming soon. Father Qin Daoren also arrived in the capital with his mother and sisters.
