Chapter 66 Dragon Mark
Xiao Hongyang, who was standing by, couldn't help but frown when he heard this and said, "The positions of officials in the General Security Department are determined every year, and even if they are expanded, they should not be too many.

Unless the talents recommended by the two sisters are truly exceptional and rare, we cannot make an exception and accept them all."

After saying this, Xiao Shuyun's smile became a little stiff, and she couldn't help but say: "But I had already recommended this to the General Manager half a month ago.

She thought that this matter must be sorted out in order.

However, Xiao Yueye knew very well how the General Security Department under the County Magistrate's Office operated. Nomination was one thing, but it would take at least a month to complete the review and make the official decision.

Her beautiful face raised slightly and she interrupted directly.

"If there is only one spot, then the best one will be elected. Then it will depend on whether the one nominated by Fourth Sister is more suitable or mine is more suitable."

Under the table, Xiao Shuyun clenched her left fist again.

She never expected that this matter, which she thought was a sure thing, would still encounter twists and turns.

"Yeah, that's right." After listening for a moment, Xiao Jingchuan nodded and said, "The competent ones will be given the job. It's good that you want to recruit talents, but everything still depends on ability. We must be fair and just at that time, and we can't be willful."

"Yes, father." Xiao Yueye responded first, with a smile in her eyes.

"Yes." Seeing that her father had spoken, Xiao Shuyun had no choice but to shut up and stop arguing, to avoid being blamed for being unreasonable.

Xiao Yanli, who was standing by, saw this and couldn't help but shook his head.

If something that has already been promised suddenly becomes complicated and has more variables, it will not only cause loss of face, but will also disappoint the person being promoted and even create a gap in their heart.

Even if the promoted person finally won the spot to enter the general office, it was not all due to Xiao Shuyun's credit. The final link was still won by the promoted person through his own strength.

In this way, his gratitude towards those who helped him will naturally decrease.

If this favor is not great enough, it will be hard to say whether Xiao Shuyun will be able to control Captain Song in the future.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yanli couldn't help but look twice at his second sister sitting opposite him.

Growing up, it seemed like the second sister never liked the younger sister.

I don’t know if this is a coincidence or a deliberate targeting.

He shook his head secretly. Even if he wanted to help his younger sister, he couldn't do anything about this matter, especially since his father had already spoken personally and no one could interfere.

Looking back on the past year, Song Changming felt that it had been quite smooth, with considerable progress in both his official and martial arts careers.

However, it is impossible for people to have everything go their way all the time.

After the New Year, he received news from his new backer, the fourth young lady of the Xiao family.

The original opportunity to go to the headquarters turned into a competition for places.

You have to compete with other candidates for the job.

Upon learning about this, Song Changming didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although he was mentally prepared that this new backer might not be reliable, he did not expect that something unexpected would happen before he even entered the headquarters.

I can only say that fortunately the three golden pills given by the fourth young lady are genuine.

In any case, it is better to have a chance to compete for a spot than not at all.

He is quite confident in his current fighting power. Among the many patrol captains, he is not bad in terms of competitiveness!

The matter has been basically finalized, and we are just waiting for notification from the headquarters.

The next day, Song Changming went to the Houli Street Patrol Division to work as usual.

Near noon, Song Changming, who had just finished practicing swordsmanship, suddenly saw the courtyard door was ajar and a man outside the door poked his head out to look inside.

The two looked at each other, and the other person blinked his big eyes before speaking a little embarrassedly.

"Captain Song."

As this person approached, Song Changming had an impression of her. She seemed to be one of the personal maids who followed the fourth young lady that day.

"But did the fourth young lady give any instructions?" Song Changming asked directly. Min'er nodded and handed over the long box in her hand.

"My young lady feels very guilty for not being able to fulfill her promise to you, so she ordered me to give this dragon-patterned knife to you, the guard commander, as an apology. I hope it will help you stand out in the competition for the general office."

Upon hearing this, Song Changming opened the long box and found a sheathed long sword inside.

Just one glance at the exposed handle and scabbard shows that they were made by a famous craftsman, with extremely fine craftsmanship, and are by no means comparable to ordinary knives.

There is a special feeling of coldness emanating from this knife, which makes people feel chilled just by looking at it.

He grasped the jet-black metal scabbard and took it out.

"Huh?" Song Changming looked at the long sword in his hand with some surprise.

It is much heavier than expected, weighing at least forty or fifty kilograms!
This isn't made of ordinary iron!

The handle of this knife is relatively long, almost as long as the forearm. It can be held with one hand to fight the enemy, or with both hands to chop hard.

Clang!
Song Changming pulled the long sword out of its sheath. The silver-white blade extended straight, about four fingers wide, and the blade was shining with cold light.

There are densely packed patterns on it, which, under the refraction of sunlight, look like two dragon bodies woven together. The metal patterns on the handle are the positions of the two dragon heads.

"What a great knife!" Song Changming commented softly.

He himself had no particular liking for swords, but after practicing with swords so much, he naturally developed a pursuit for them.

The sword before you is undoubtedly a rare treasure.

I believe that any swordsman who sees this sword will stop and look at it with his eyes shining. To them, a famous sword that he knows well is a treasure that is priceless.

I have to say that although the fourth young lady is not so reliable in doing things, she is really willing to invest heavily.

In order to compensate Song Changming, he gave him this sword of uncertain value.

"As long as Captain Song likes it." Min'er smiled brightly and looked at Song Changming with moving eyes.

Song Changming smiled back. In her eyes, he was full of youthful vigor and handsomeness, which made her heart beat fast.

"Thank the Fourth Miss for me. I won't let him down."

"Okay, okay." After saying this, Min'er did not dare to stay for long and walked away, for fear that her little thoughts would be exposed.

Before leaving, she kept looking back one more time.

In the courtyard, Song Changming was wearing armor, standing tall and slender, holding a scabbard in one hand and a knife in the other in front of him.

A breeze blew by, wrapping around its blade and hair, as quiet as a dormant dragon, about to open its eyes and swallow up the world.

"Min'er, you can't watch this anymore!" The maid secretly blamed herself for having such poor self-control, lowered her head and quickly left the patrol station.

In the courtyard, Song Changming swung his sword against the wind, exerting his sword skills.

He is very strong and has no problem controlling this heavy sword made of special material.

The whistling wind seemed to be cut in half by the knife in his hand.

His body moves with the sword, he walks on the wind, displaying a set of sword skills, flowing like clouds and water, with the sword light shining brightly, which is very brilliant.

After a moment, Song Changming suddenly stopped, swung his sword, and left a long knife mark on the ground.

This ordinary floor tile cracks as easily as tofu.

After trying the knife, Song Changming became more and more satisfied with it and couldn't let it go.

It was said that he had never used such a good knife in all the years he had used it.

The sharpness of this sword will undoubtedly help him to improve his combat capability to a higher level, and he even looks forward to the competition with Souji.

That is also a battle to identify the quality!
So, in early February, people from the general office came.
