Chapter 7 Soap Clothes
Chapter 7 Soap Clothes
"The girls in Chunyu Tower are really made of gold!"
Every time he came out of Chunyu Tower, Monkey Head would look up to the sky and sigh like this.
Chen Ping'an, Houtou and Dashan went to receive their badges and swords, and then walked out of the gate of the Pacification Office.
Temporary servants like them were not allowed to wear swords on weekdays. They had to hand in their badges and swords before leaving their posts and returning home.
However, the official uniforms of the Zhenfu Division can be put back on, with two sets per person, which can be worn in rotation.
Only official servants can enjoy the right to wear swords.
"By the way, where's Qintou?"
After leaving the Zhenfu Division and walking along Liuye Lane, Chen Pingan asked curiously.
Generally speaking, patrolling the streets requires a group of four people. With such a number of people, if something really happens, they can look after each other.
One person rushed to report the news and ask for help, while the remaining three suppressed the lawlessness.
Not only that, among the four people, there must be a formal officer present. Only in this way can the power of law enforcement be fully enjoyed.
The Qin Tou that Chen Ping'an was asking about was the official officer who was assigned with them.
According to the rules of the Pacification Office, Qin Tou should be with them.
"As for him! He disappeared long ago after the check-in. Now, he is either at home with his wife and children, or drinking tea in a teahouse."
The monkey pursed his lips and said. Although he showed disgust, his expression betrayed him when he spoke.
Ah! I'm so envious! I want to be like this too!
Being on a business trip instead of working is called earning a monthly salary!
Chen Pingan didn't find it strange to hear Monkey Head's reply.
In his early years, Qin Tou was also a brave and courageous man. He went from being an unregistered police officer to an official registered police officer.
But as I get older, I don’t dare to do that anymore. With a family to support, I don’t have the same fighting spirit as before. The best thing is to retire peacefully and enjoy my old age!
It's a bad job! He can slack off if he can! If he can avoid it, he won't! If there is something to do, let the young people do it. He is old and just wants to receive his monthly salary quietly.
Liuye Street was two streets away from the Nanquan Lane Zhenfu Division, so it wasn't too far away. As they were talking, they turned a corner and arrived at Liuye Street.
Liuye Street was lined with shops and was undoubtedly much busier than other streets. However, it was still morning and it was far from the busiest time for Liuye Street.
Chen Ping'an and his two companions, wearing the black uniforms of Zhenfusi officials, were still very eye-catching when walking on the street.
The three men were wearing a green robe, a red cloth vest, and a green silk ribbon around their waists, which was considered the attire of temporary servants.
If they were official servants, they would wear a blue cloth shirt with a cross collar, narrow sleeves and a red ribbon tied around their waists.
Therefore, it is easy to tell whether a person is a formal official or a temporary official who is not registered by looking at his clothes.
However, even if they were temporary police officers, the three of them walking together with swords in their hands looked extremely impressive.
"It would be nice if I could wear a regular police uniform. That would be really impressive."
The monkey head was walking majestically with a knife on his waist.
This kid doesn't usually walk like this. But now, he's pretending to be like this.
Chen Pingan glanced at the monkey head and couldn't help but teasing.
"Monkey head, why don't you just wear a fish scale suit and walk on the street? Wouldn't that be more impressive? I guarantee those young ladies will be completely fascinated by you."
"Tsk! If I can have a shatou cloak in this lifetime, it would be a great blessing from my ancestors. Fish scale cloak? I can't even think about a monkey head!"
If a formal policeman can be promoted to the position of police chief, his official uniform will be more refined in details than that of a formal policeman, and he can also own a cloak.
Wearing a cloak represents identity and status. It not only enhances one's dignity, but also serves to deter villains. When others see him, they know that he is the head of the Zhenfu Division and dare not offend him.
As for the fish scale suit
That is a privilege that only the deputy commissioner level can enjoy.
Such power and prestige were unimaginable for a temporary official like Houtou.
"What a loser! If you think about it, it's not bad. Dashan, don't you agree?"
Chen Pingan joked.
With the golden finger, he is undoubtedly in a happier mood than before.
"Hehe~"
Dashan smiled innocently.
"Let alone the fish-scale uniform and the police cape, even if I could wear the official monkey cap of a police officer, my father would wake up laughing in his dreams. If I were an official police officer, the Wild Wolf Gang would never dare to charge more for my blacksmith shop. Not to mention that they could exempt the monthly fee, at least they would behave themselves and not raise the price at will!"
When talking about the exciting parts, Monkey Head was so excited that his face was beaming with joy, as if he was already an official official of the Zhenfu Division.
"A formal official is really a government official! He is a respectable person in this street."
The Wild Wolf Gang, like the Tiger Head Gang, is also one of the gangs that runs rampant in the alleys of Nanquan.
"Then you should work hard."
Chen Pingan patted Monkey Head's shoulder.
"Official errand boy!
Hearing this, Monkey Head's face suddenly became bitter.
"It's not that easy! Even if I have made great contributions, I still need to learn martial arts! This is the case when I have made good connections and opened up many joints. Otherwise, even if I have perfected the first level of Qi and blood and made great progress in skin refining, I may not be able to become an official official."
Getting started in martial arts is so difficult!
If you practice martial arts without talent or a famous teacher, not only will you exhaust your resources, but you will also end up with problems everywhere.
Even if one manages to get started in martial arts, he probably won't be able to develop much combat power, and it would be a waste of time and money.
A few years ago, his father had let him practice martial arts for a while, but he was not cut out for it. Although his family was relatively well-off, it was not as rich as those wealthy families. He had no herbs for bathing and no famous teachers to teach him. After studying for several months, he only learned some superficial techniques.
This little bit of knowledge is enough to beat ordinary people, but it is not the real step of martial arts practice!
"Dashan, Monkey Head, I can't do it. You are gifted and have natural powers, so maybe you still have a chance. Look for Qin Tou more often, maybe he will be in a good mood one day and teach you a few tricks."
The monkey head said to the mountain.
"Ah."
This time, Dashan didn't smile foolishly, but responded heavily. Obviously, he also had the same idea in mind.
If you want to quickly advance in the Pacification Division, martial arts training is undoubtedly the best way. Even connections and backgrounds cannot compare.
Even if you have a strong background, you still have to show decent strength!
If he doesn't have strong abilities and connections, what's the point of forcing him to become a police officer?!
Strength cannot overpower all forces. Relying on connections and background alone will probably make you a laughing stock in the streets. People may obey you on the surface, but they don't obey you in their hearts!
"Strength! Strength!"
"If I can get started with Iron Shirt, I wonder if that means I've officially embarked on the path of martial arts training."
Chen Ping'an, wearing a sword, strode along Willow Street, as if he was walking in a dazzling golden light, with a bright future and endless hope.
