The Great Seminary

Chapter 13 The fox pretends to be the tiger's power
In the hall.

Guan Xihui calmed the situation and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, one or two stubborn people suddenly popped up:

"We are naturally deeply saddened by the murder of our relatives and colleagues last night.

But what does this have to do with us?

It was clearly your patrol's negligence that allowed the criminals to take advantage of you."

"Yes, yes."

"That's exactly the reason."

With someone taking the lead, the lobby gradually became chaotic again.

At this moment, a roar came from outside the door:

“The vicious men who killed people last night were all Dao masters. The few who showed up were all as agile as flying birds, their swords splitting the air.

Even if it was the imperial court's elite troops with heavy armor, they would be killed if they encountered the enemy without forming a large formation.

Two years ago, our garrison wanted to recruit a few more patrol teams, buy battle formations and train armored soldiers.

Which one of you spoke up to support it?

Isn’t it said that the gold, silver and valuables sent to our mainland family must not be reduced in the slightest?

Now it's behind schedule, who should I blame? "

The roaring man had a square face, a big mouth, a nose like a hanging gall bladder, was nine feet tall, and looked very majestic.

When he looks at people angrily, his eye sockets seem to be cracking and his eyeballs seem to be popping out, which is terrifying.

It was Zhang Yan's other confidant, He Kaihai, another of the Wei Suo Pingxing Chiefs.

Legend has it that he has the bloodline of an ancient sea god and has a "divine bush" on his body that allows him to enter the sea without dying. Killing whales and hunting sharks is a piece of cake for him, which is quite intimidating.

After all, a small wealthy man with a delicate body and high net worth, even if he practices Taoism while living on an island for many years.

If you encounter a barbarian with a low IQ but a lot of martial virtue, who is said to be able to freely travel between islands and land by swimming, it is best not to offend him.

It's not that I'm afraid of him, but it's not worth it.

So the lobby finally became silent.

Guan Xihui began to question everyone according to their status.

There is no difficulty in the content at all, it is just a formality.

So many people died overnight, and you, the person in charge of public security, didn't take proper statements from the relevant personnel. Is this appropriate? It is not appropriate.

Just keep asking and remembering the same questions over and over again.

After a few managers asked questions, they skipped over the head waiter and the chief waiter and asked Zhang Gui.

"Brother Zhang Gui, let me ask you a question.

Someone died in your yard last night. Were you so scared that you forgot to report it to the police, or did you just not know about it?"

Zhang Gui was stunned and replied, "To answer Commander Guan, I really don't know anything about this matter."

“I don’t know, there’s so much lime in the yard, and the strong smell of alcohol, can’t you see and smell it?
Could it be that last night there were bandits everywhere in the city, and you were young and panicked, so you didn't notice it?"

“Yeah, I didn’t notice.

Yesterday, after I got my place, I took a nap and went to the street to find something to eat as soon as it got dark.

As a result, as we were walking around, the streets became chaotic.

Later, the patrol brothers asked everyone to go home, and I went back to sleep.

Didn’t notice anything.”

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, at such a young age, encountering this kind of thing when entering society for the first time, it's no wonder he's nervous.

"Xu Shuli, please remember what I have said, have Zhang Gui sign it, and then let him go."

Such an easy trial, even if Zhang Gui was Guan Xihui's biological father, it would probably be the only way.

Zhang Gui bowed and thanked him, then walked out of the town guard station in a daze, feeling a little panicky.

For those who are smart enough, knowledgeable enough, courageous enough and lucky enough, no matter how great the adversity is, it is not scary.

Just take advantage of the situation.

The scary thing is that the situation suddenly goes against common sense, making it impossible to understand or predict. An unknown tailwind can turn into the most terrifying headwind at any time.

In this way, Zhang Gui returned to the Dongfang City Office with great worries, and even forgot that he was hungry.

The guys in the office had already had lunch and were squatting in their rooms drinking tea to help digest their food.

When Zhang Gui appeared, no one showed up to greet him.

No compliments, no embarrassment, just ignore it.

The two shop managers in Dongfang City are both from the Zhang family in Pingyang.

One of them was fat and big-eared and his name was Zhang Qishan, and the other one was even fatter and his name was Zhang Huai.

By the window of the first wing room in the second courtyard.

Zhang Qishan looked at Zhang Gui curiously, walked into the main hall without saying a word, and spat, "Little rascal, you become arrogant when you succeed.

Relying on the fact that he is the childhood friend of the manager, he treats us, the head clerk, like this in a disrespectful way.

I really didn’t realize how powerful it is that ‘the county magistrate is not as good as the current manager’.”

"Great, what's so great about that? Don't look for trouble." Another waiter, Zhang Huai, said unambitiously, "Manager Yajen is great, isn't he?

It was just that overnight, the cake was divided and then the head was lost inexplicably.

I've said it before, a place like Luan Ya is far away from the emperor.

No one knows which cloud contains rain, so it is best to be kind to others.

If he ignores us, we will ignore him too for the sake of face.

Why are you so angry and being so cruel? It's unnecessary."

“People compete for a breath, Buddha competes for a stick of incense.

Zhang Jiujiang has a brother who is the top case, and we dare not fight for him. How can we even have a brother without any background?"

As he was speaking, he suddenly saw Zhang Jiujiang striding into the yard. Although he knew that Zhang Jiujiang couldn't hear what he said at all, he still shrank his neck and closed his mouth in fear.

In the yard, Zhang Jiujiang hurried into the main room.

Seeing Zhang Gui pacing around the fire, he said, "Dagui, something big has happened!"

"Great." Zhang Gui's eyes lit up when he heard this, "It seems you know what the variable is in me.

Tell me quickly."

"What kind of changes could happen to you, a layman who has never read the classics on the imperial examination? It's Zhang Jiuqing. Zhang Jiuqing has had another stroke of good luck.

Betrothed to the only daughter of Lord Hexiang."

"What does that have to do with me?"

"I'll have to explain this slowly." Zhang Jiujiang took a deep breath and poured himself a cup of tea.

He brought a chair and sat down by the stove and said, "Didn't Zhang Yan call all the managers over this morning to give them a lecture?

I was thinking that if I wanted to use Zhang Jiuqing's influence to return home, you..."

"What are you talking about, Jiujiang!

Didn’t I tell you not to act on your own? "

“But you treat me like a brother and give me advice, so how can I just sit back and watch you get into this situation?

Zhang Jiujiang might not be clear-headed about small matters, but he's no jerk when it comes to big things."

"Okay, okay, you are not a coward, go on." Zhang Gui said weakly.

"Since you interrupted me, I've forgotten what I was going to say.

In short, I waited until Zhang Yan had finished nagging and calmed everyone down.

When people were giving sweet dates to each other, they pretended to mention Zhang Jiuqing unintentionally.

Lie to him and tell him that Zhang Jiuqing said he was so great.

He also said that apart from me, his uncle, Zhang Jiuqing is the one who is closest to you and loves you the most.

Because I wanted you to have a good future, I used my connections to bring you and me here together.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yan heard this and directly promoted you to the head of the team."
