Chapter 2 Taking office
There is no county government in Qingniu Town, so the Baihu Suo of Zhenwusi is the patron saint of the villages near Qingniu Town.

When Fu Shaoping arrived, the gate of the Hundred Households Office had already been opened.

The Zhenwu guards, wearing Feiyu uniforms and Zhenwu swords on their waists, came to the Hundred Households Office in twos and threes to report for duty.

There were hundreds of Zhenwu Guards alone in the Hundred Households Office, and the place was so large that Fu Shaoping had no idea where to report. He showed his identity token to the gatekeeper, stuffed a dozen copper coins into his pocket, and explained his purpose. Then the gatekeeper, with a cold face, took him through three courtyard gates and finally to a side hall.

inside the hall.

A plump middle-aged man, Ye Xiaoqi, sat at the desk.

Fu Shaoping glanced at the flying fish suit on the other person. The flying fish was embroidered with copper thread. It was a symbol of Xiaoqi's identity. He saluted quickly and said:

"Sir, I am Fu Shaoping, the son of Fu Changsheng from Wutong Lane. I have come here today to take over my father's position as the Zhenwu Guard."

Ye Xiaoqi asked Fu Shaoping to raise his head, took a closer look, and nodded:
"They look quite similar."

Done.

He waved back.

The Zhenwu Guard who was standing with his hands behind him immediately understood what he meant. One of them turned around and went into the file room. After a while, he took out a thick scroll and opened it to page 107.

The above records Fu Changsheng's biographical files.

One of them left the side hall, and about half a cup of tea later, he ran back breathlessly, and whispered to Ye Xiaoqi:
"Sir, this man is indeed Fu Shaoping, the son of Fu Changsheng."

Ye Xiaoqi nodded slightly.

He took out a round inkstone from his sleeve, placed it on the table, and said to Fu Shaoping:
"Place your hand on the Yuan-measuring stone and practice the technique."

This is a test to see if one has truly entered the Body Tempering Realm, and it is also the last step to becoming a Zhenwu Guardian.

Fu Shaoping was somewhat nervous at the moment. He counted to three silently in his mind. After calming down, he immediately practiced the "Xuanwu Yangqi Gong". However, he saw that the Yuanshi stone covered by his right hand emitted a hazy white light.

"The first level of the Body Tempering Realm is barely qualified."

Ye Xiaoqi didn't ask any questions and immediately processed the registration information for Fu Shaoping.

The Zhenwu Guard on the left handed Fu Shaoping a brand new flying fish suit, but the flying fish on the suit was only embroidered with silk thread, neither iron nor bronze or gold.

Another Zhenwu guard handed Fu Shaoping an identity token. It was made of unknown material, but it felt warm to the touch. There was a big character "Wu" engraved on the front, and the three characters "Qingniu Town" were written on the bottom. On the back was a big character "Fu", and below the character "Fu" was a number 666.

Fu Shaoping rubbed the numbers several times with his fingertips.

This is his father’s Zhenwuwei number. Now he can be said to have truly inherited his father’s business.

Seeing that Fu Shaoping was neither arrogant nor impatient from beginning to end, and looked much more stable than his age, Ye Xiaoqi smiled more:

"Newly promoted Zhenwu Guards do not have to carry out monthly tasks in the first month. They only need to stay in the Sixth Hall of the Hundred Households to help out. As for your Zhenwu Sword, it will be issued to you in one month."

The opportunity is here.

Fu Shaoping was delighted.

As expected, I remembered correctly, the new town guards have a one-month apprenticeship period.

As long as we use part of our father's pension to bribe one or two Ye Xiaoqi, it should not be difficult to achieve our goal of entering the prison to punish the prisoners.

"also"

"Your father died in the line of duty and received a subsidy of ten low-grade Yuanshi stones. You should keep them all."

The reason why the pension has not been issued yet.

There is no other reason.

I’m afraid that these orphans and widows can’t keep themselves company.

Of course, the Zhenwu Division would only help with the deposit for three years. Fu Shaoping bowed in the direction of Kyoto, took the box with white leaf patterns in both hands, took out two Yuan stones from it, and handed them to Ye Xiaoqi without leaving any trace:
"Master Ye, for the next month, I want to be in prison to punish people, see blood, and practice my courage. I wonder if you can make it easier for me."

Prison is a dirty place, dark and gloomy.

The jailers and servants there are also the lowest level of the centurion.

The water flows to the lower places, and the people go to the higher places.

It was the first time that Ye Xiaoqi met someone who wanted to go there on his own initiative, especially someone as young and full of vigor as Fu Shaoping, who was always admiring Gao Yuan.

Ye Xiaoqi couldn't help but look at Fu Shaoping with a higher opinion.

It seems that the other party was able to enter the body-building realm at the age of fifteen without the help of a teacher. It is not just that he has good talent, but he is also willing to endure hardships and has great perseverance:
"Take these two Yuan stones back. This is the money your father earned from his life. If I really accept it, I would be acting against my conscience. As for the prison sentence, I will tell Old Zhan and you can go to work tomorrow morning."

"Thank you for your help, sir!"

Fu Shaoping was stunned for a moment before taking the Yuanshi handed over by the other party.

I never thought that Ye Xiaoqi was so easy to talk to. For a moment, a warm feeling rose in my heart.

When coming out of the Personnel Hall.

It's already noon.

Meals are free in all the canteens of Baihu.

When he reached the cafeteria entrance, Fu Shaoping turned out again.

Ye Xiaoqi gave him half a day off, so he could go home immediately. Today was a rare good day and he should celebrate it.

He squeezed his silver bag, went to Hexianlou and packed a beggar's chicken and a steamed fish, then carried the food box to the stall area on West Street and saw Zhou Paner's tofu stall from a distance.

Only three pieces of tofu are left out of the ten pieces.

There is still half a bucket of tofu pudding left.

At the stall, old customer Qiu Bo was drinking tofu pudding. He turned around and saw Fu Shaoping approaching in a flying fish suit. He blinked and immediately straightened up stiffly:
"Congratulations, Brother Ping, congratulations on your promotion to Zhenwu Guard!"

The three-year period was almost up in the blink of an eye, and his neighbors all thought that he had no hope in this life.

Never imagined.

This young man who was working part-time was actually able to make the big jump.

Uncle Qiu didn't want the half bowl of tofu pudding left.

The emergence of a Zhenwuwei in their poor alley is a great event that has never happened in the past ten years. He must publicize such important news.

In the future, they will have someone to support them in the poor alley, and see if those thugs dare to come and ask for protection money.

Uncle Qiu bowed hastily and left without moving.

Zhou Paner, who had been worried for the whole morning, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Fu Shaoping change into the Feiyu suit. After a closer look, she found that Fu Shaoping's temperament had become more stable, and just standing there gave people a sense of peace of mind. From now on, her business at this stall will be able to continue steadily.

"Sister Pan'er, I bought some food at the River Fresh Restaurant. Let's close the stall early today to celebrate."

Fu Shaoping raised the food box in his hand.

Zhou Paner smiled and nodded. Seeing Fu Shaoping rolling up his sleeves to help close the shop, she quickly stopped him:
"I can do it, just don't get your flying fish suit dirty."

"Just wash it when it gets dirty."

Fu Shaoping skillfully put the table and chairs onto the cart as usual, and the two of them pushed it towards Wutong Lane.
