Chapter 67 Interlude
Chapter 67 Interlude (Please read it~)
After entering the fourth level of Qi and Blood, Chen Pingan's speed of practicing martial arts techniques has increased. After the breakthrough, he practiced the Thirteen Swords of the Public Gate three times and the Flying Locust Stone three times.
For each of the two techniques, he gained 3 points of practice experience.
Seeing that it was almost dark, Chen Pingan hurriedly wiped his body, finished his breakfast, and hurried out.
"Nannan, remember to add a big pork leg tonight! If you can't carry it, ask the butcher to deliver it directly to your door. It doesn't hurt to add more money."
As he had achieved a breakthrough in his martial arts realm, he needed a large amount of meat to nourish his qi and blood.
"Well, okay, brother." Chen Erya responded.
Chen Ping'an's monthly salary increased, and the family's food was a step up from usual. Chen Erya knew that her brother was practicing martial arts, so she was willing to spend money.
Chen Ping'an hurried all the way to the Nanquanli Lane Zhenfu Division.
Today he practiced martial arts for a longer time, so he arrived later than usual. When he arrived at the Nanquan Lane Zhenfu Division, most of the officers had already arrived, but fortunately he was not late.
Just as he arrived at the gate of the Pacification Office, a man came over from the other side. He had a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a mustache.
Zheng Chatou!
Chen Ping'an narrowed his eyes.
Why does this scene feel so familiar?
Zheng Cha raised his head and saw Chen Ping'an walking towards the gate of the Zhenfu Division.
"Hello, Zheng Chatou."
Chen Pingan greeted with a smile.
In any case, as an official servant, his rank is lower than Zheng Chatou, so he needs to greet him first when they meet.
Hearing this, Zheng Chatou slowed down his pace slightly and glanced up and down at Chen Pingan.
What is this old man going to do?
Just when Chen Ping'an thought he was going to experience the same scene all over again, he saw Zheng Chatou's eyes fixed, and then he walked into the gate of the Zhenfu Division with ease.
Although Zheng Chatou did not get angry, Chen Pingan felt depressed.
He followed the steps of Zheng Chatou and also walked into the main gate of the Zhenfu Division. As soon as he entered the door, he found that many eyes were on him.
It is very rare for the official escort to arrive later than the chief escort!
Qin Tou and several others from Houtou Mountain were also looking at Chen Pingan. Chen Pingan gave them a look to show his calmness.
Zheng Shiyong stood in the crowd, looking at Chen Pingan with a sarcastic look on his face.
The task of donating silver was announced today, but Chen Pingan is still taking his time.
Ignorance or stupidity?
Humph, you’ll have something to worry about these days!
If you don't do it well, you might suffer a big loss!
Chen Ping'an stood still at his seat, and Zeng Jiji beside him greeted him in a low voice.
"Chentou."
Chen Pingan nodded slightly in response.
Cheng Yuan and Zhao Hu merely looked up and glanced at him without paying any attention to him.
These two people were fine at first, but today they don't take Chen Pingan seriously at all. Of course, this is also because Chen Pingan deliberately indulged him.
There were four captains in total attending the regular meeting before the mission today, and Captain Zheng gave a speech.
Neither the inspector nor the deputy inspector was present. It seemed that the matter of the Ten Thousand Demons Cult should be resolved! In this way, the previous high-pressure control was about to come to an end.
On the high platform, Zheng Chatou was speaking. Below, Chen Pingan's mind was turning.
"Finally, I have one more thing to inform you. We are going to start collecting the annual donations. The relevant task assignments have been announced and will be announced by the Mission Office later.
The donation of silver is related to the interests of the Nanquanlixiang Zhenfu Division, and it is a serious matter. I hope everyone can pay great attention to it! If someone makes a mistake and the donation of silver does not go smoothly, if I find out, I will never tolerate it and will punish it severely! "On the high platform, Zheng Chatou's tone was quite stern.
Looking at Zheng Chatou's stern expression, Chen Pingan understood what he meant. That's right! It's coming for me!
"Okay, that's it, meeting adjourned!"
As Zheng Chatou finished his last sentence, the atmosphere around him gradually became lively.
"Donate silver! It happens once a year, and I've finally waited for it!"
"It's all very well to donate money, but please don't ask me to do this hard job of collecting donations!"
"Yeah! It's so hard! Hey, why are you so happy!?"
"Hehe. I've already inquired about it. This year's incident has nothing to do with us!"
"I'm jealous!"
"."
As soon as the pre-mission meeting was over, Zeng Ji went to the mission office to inquire about the collection of donations. He had heard that they were on the list of people who were to collect donations this time. But he hadn't seen the official announcement, so he still had a glimmer of hope.
Besides, even if we go to collect donations, it will be very different if we collect them in different places!
"An ordinary shop! An ordinary shop!"
When I left, I kept muttering to myself, "I'm leaving."
"Aren't you curious?" Chen Ping'an stood where he was, looking at Cheng Yuan and Zhao Hu who were equally indifferent.
Cheng Yuan raised his eyelids and ignored Chen Pingan.
Zhao Hu on the side did reply, but the tone of his voice was undoubtedly a bit provocative.
"What's there to be curious about? Anyway, no matter where we are assigned, it's Officer Chen's job! If Officer Chen is worried, why don't you go up and ask around yourself?"
It's outrageous! It's really outrageous!
Okay, that's it, keep it up! Keep it up, or your comfortable days will come to an end!
Facts have proved that a spoiled subordinate is usually carefully cultivated by his superior.
No matter what he thought in his heart, Chen Ping'an's expression showed a hint of surprise.
"Zhao Hu! How do you talk like that?"
"Officer Chen, is there anything wrong with what I said? Isn't the task of donating silver yours or ours? As an official officer of the Pacification Bureau, you naturally have to bear more responsibilities than us."
Faced with Chen Ping'an's questioning, between compromise and toughness, Zhao Hu chose toughness.
When he first arrived, Zhao Hu really didn't dare to do this. But after a few days of contact, he found that Chen Pingan was a coward. He was just lucky to become a formal official. He had no courage and no strength!
In addition, Zheng Shiyong had hinted at him several times, so he dared to be so tough.
"Zhao Hu, you are so outrageous!" Chen Pingan pointed at Zhao Hu's nose and was about to scold him.
Before he could even finish his curse, Cheng Yuan on the side came to join in.
"Officer Chen, what Zhao Hu said is right! Your monthly salary is much higher than ours. When something comes, you should do more!
Also, Officer Chen, you get angry easily, you don't have the calmness of a regular officer at all."
Cheng Yuan looked sarcastic and provocative: "If Officer Chen really doesn't know how to be a formal officer, then I suggest you go find Officer Zheng and learn from him!"
When Chen Pingan heard this, he was delighted.
Good, good, good! These two are quite good at talking!
Chen Pingan's face was filled with anger. Cheng Yuan and Zhao Hu looked at him fearlessly.
Apart from his official identity as a police officer, they are not afraid of Chen Pingan.
He is just a kid who knows nothing about martial arts. If a real fight breaks out, not to mention Cheng Yuan, even Zhao Hu can beat him easily!
