The Great Seminary

Chapter 10: First Day of Work

Chapter 10 First Day of Work

Hanxiang Tower.

A pile of headless corpses of managers and shop assistants of the Four Seasons Trading Company were kneeling on the ground in a strange manner.

Heads were rolling around, but a few cultivators held on with ferocious expressions and started to shake people off.

Seeing from afar that the law he had made did not execute all the targets, Zhang Gui lowered his head and pondered for a while, then guessed the reason.

The judicial authority he holds can be freely manifested on the Giant Serpent Head Island.

However, he only had the ability of "Chengding", or the ninth rank, which greatly limited the strength of the manifestation of power.

This is a typical case of 'killing mortals is like mowing grass, fighting against extraordinary people, one is too many'.

So I could only squeeze into the crowd regretfully and walk away quietly.

At the Kuroki Town Office, half of the courtyard has collapsed and sewage is flowing everywhere.

Forced to kill, Zhang Yan ordered Guan Xihui with a gloomy expression:
"Everything started to happen tonight, and it's become a mess. We have to cut the Gordian knot quickly, you understand."

"I understand. My Lord, just go ahead and do your work. I'm sure nothing will get out."

Guan Xihui licked his dry lips and said.

In the moonlight, his upper and lower canine teeth, as sharp as steel nails, were vaguely visible, interlacing and interlocking with the movement of his lips.

He no longer had the elegance of the master's appearance during the day, but looked more like a demon.

Zhang Yan seemed quite satisfied with his confidant's performance. Without saying anything more, he jumped up.

The air around his body rippled like water, and Zhang Yan disappeared in an instant.

Giant lanterns began to light up around the town, floating above the rooftop rafters.

The sound of loud gongs and loud shouts rang out:

"Tonight, some villains are committing crimes in our town, robbing money, killing people and setting fires. It's truly despicable!
The patrol guards have been equipped with eight-ox crossbows, Taoist talismans, and steel nets to kill the bandits with all their strength.

To prevent our guests and friends from being accidentally injured, please return to your residence for temporary shelter.

Anyone still wandering the streets after an hour and a half will be considered a thief and killed without mercy!

The sound repeated over and over again in the sky above Kuroki Town and did not dissipate for a long time.

When the big lantern came closer, we found out that it was a patrolman holding a light source on the roof to direct traffic.

Life is more important than curiosity, and the number of people on the street began to decrease little by little.

Zhang Gui had no choice but to turn around and go home.

He accidentally discovered that there were at least three hundred patrol guards on the roof.

At this time, unless someone is crazy, who would use all the armed forces to direct traffic?

"It seems that the armed forces that Mr. Yan controls are just the tip of the iceberg.

The emperor is far away, and the sky is high. I can become the king of Dai by planting a flag."

Zhang Jia looked at the roof quietly and thought silently, then squeezed back home.

It stands to reason that at this time all the lights in the house should be lit to make it easier for the government to catch the thief.

But unless everyone turns on their lights, if you turn on your lights while others don't, it would be like deliberately inviting thieves to their deaths, so the whole street was dark except for the patrol lanterns.

The bodies of the two evil guests who died in the yard have disappeared without a trace.

Even the bloodstains on the ground were carefully covered with lime, implementing ancient biochemical disinfection.

There was also a smell of strong liquor that rushed straight to my head.

Zhang Gui returned to his room silently.

He sat there until midnight in the least suspicious manner, then fell asleep until dawn.

The sky turned from dark to white, and the bell for the start of work rang out on the street.

This means that although there were many accidents last night, with people killed, injured, and scared to death, as a worker, work cannot be delayed.

After washing his face and brushing his teeth with his fingers dipped in salt and mint paste, Zhang Gui walked out of the room full of energy.

Welcomed his first day of working in another world.

The neighbors also went out listlessly.

If you see new residents moving in, they are all peers, and there is a high probability that they are related to the Zhang family in Pingyang. They will get to know each other for both professional and personal reasons.

But today no one had the leisure to do so, and they politely nodded to Zhang Gui as a greeting.

The impolite ones just lowered their heads and walked out gloomily, as if their parents had died.

"It seems that it's different from what I thought last night. This Blackwood Town is often robbed and killed."

Seeing this, Zhang Gui made a new judgment. He smiled back at the guy who nodded to him and slowly walked out of the yard.

Migrant workers kept pouring out of the courtyards on both sides of the sloping street.

Zhang Gui had just taken a few steps when he heard a kind voice behind him say:
"Brother, you can't just walk around like this when you're working, you have to hurry up.

Especially you young men, it is best to trot, so that the captain and the head of the team will be satisfied."

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man who lived in the same courtyard as Zhang Gui.

He is white and plump, and looks about thirty-four or thirty-five years old.

It seems that he thinks the new neighbor is too lazy as a new worker, so he kindly reminds him.

"Pigeon, I'm still a duck, so I can quack and trot."

Zhang Gui complained in his heart but quickened his pace and said gratefully:

“Thanks for the reminder, bro.

My name is Zhang Gui, and I am considered a member of the ninth generation of the Zhang family in Pingyang. However, I have a poor background and therefore do not have a clear generational distinction.

Luckily, I have friends and family to look after me, and I found this job in Ran Ya, and I just arrived last night."

"So you're the ninth generation kid in the clan," the fat white man said, his attitude towards Zhang Gui became more friendly after hearing this. "I'm Zhang Bajin, and I'm your uncle.

It's a pity that I have no future and am still a fellow like you. I can only give you some experience and reminders."

"These are the most important things. Thank you for your reminder, uncle."

"No, no." The fat white man said with a smile after receiving the compliment:
“Although our Blackwood Town is in turmoil, it has been peaceful in recent years.

It's been a long time since something as big as last night happened.

I'm afraid there's nothing serious to do today, but I still have to be careful in case the boss is in a bad mood.

They press down one level at a time and start trouble and curse people.

You have to hold on tight.

Okay, I'll go right, you go left, and we'll see each other after work."

In this way, Zhang Gui separated from the kind-hearted fat white man.

I hurried to the Dongfang City Office where I was supposed to work.
The scale of the Fangshi Town Hall is more than ten times smaller than that of the Zhen Town Hall, but it is also a large courtyard with two entrances.

The gate is wide and bright.

When you first enter the courtyard, you will see two main rooms and four side rooms on the left and right.

One of the main rooms is used as an office for the head waiter, and the other is used by the ordinary waiters who are valued by the superiors.

The two uppermost rooms belong to the other servants.

The two lower rooms were crowded with helpers, or temporary workers, and also used to store miscellaneous items.

The second courtyard also has two main rooms and four side rooms, but the area is smaller than the first courtyard.

The main room is the manager's residence and office, directly realizing the integration of home office.

The wing rooms are used by the head waiter.

In addition, there was only a crooked tree planted in the first yard.

There was a grape trellis in the second courtyard, and a low-legged wooden bed about 15 meters square.

In the summer, when you want to cool off, you can drink cold yogurt, eat fresh fruits, and cut a piece of watermelon. Just thinking about it makes you feel comfortable.

It can also be seen that the class structure in Kuroki Town is strict.

Although the pond is small and wild, the turtles in it are treated differently.
