Chapter 164 Promotion
Two great achievements!
Liang Qu's heart was pounding.
Coming out for seven days and getting two great achievements is really a good deal!
In this way, the choices in the Great Merit Redemption Book are far too numerous.
It’s good to have someone above you.
If it were an ordinary leader, how could he separate the investigation and elimination of the case?
"Thank you, Brother Xu!"
"Why thank me for what you did? I don't have the ability to force you to take credit for something. I can't handle it myself if I find out."
Xu Yuelong lowered his head and caught a glimpse of the large bow leaning against the side.
"I've never seen you use this bow before?"
"I surrendered it." Liang Qu clasped his fists. "It was originally used by Liu Jie. I was quite interested, so I tried it."
"want to?"
Liang Qu scratched his head, said nothing, just smiled.
"Haha, kid, let me teach you something."
Xu Yuelong slapped the album on Liang Qu and tapped the hard cover with his index finger, making a banging sound.
"Does your album record Liu Jie using a bow?"
Liang Qu shook his head: "No."
Xu Yuelong pointed to the briefing on the table next to him and asked, "Is it on the briefing?"
"Nothing more."
The album leaf is a form of packaging. The upper and lower surfaces are hard shells, and the paper inside is folded like a folding fan. The overall shape is long and can be held in one hand, making it convenient to carry and record.
When an official receives an important task, he will receive a copy of the album.
The content of the task, the handling process and other important experiences must be recorded in great detail on the album.
Many officials serve as officials for their entire lives, and they will have a thick stack of albums at home, which can be regarded as an alternative record of their lives.
It’s not on the album, let alone the briefing.
This means...
Liang Qu's eyebrows twitched slightly.
"Since you don't have any, then this bow was obviously brought by you to deal with Liu Jie, but you just didn't use it, right?"
Xu Yuelong pointed to the account book beside him and whispered, "Let's not talk about how the bow came from. Even if Liu Jie really sent someone to make it, would he record this expense in the account book?"
Liang Qu nodded silently.
He thought he needed to hand it in first and then apply for it before the bow could belong to him, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.
only……
"Will this leave any evidence?"
Of the two leaders of the Hebo Police Station, Liang Qu still remembers the arrogance of the other one.
The two factions have had a bad relationship since their grandfather's generation, and their fathers were even enemies. Wouldn't this give others a handle to use against them?
"You don't have to be so timid. The higher-ups actually know everything. Otherwise, why would confiscating property be such a lucrative job? But you're right. This is indeed a handle."
"That……"
Liang Qu was even more confused. Wouldn't it be the same if he could just hand it over first and then take it back later?
Don't rush for one or two days.
"So the second thing I'm going to teach you is, don't try to be a perfect person. It's a good thing to leave yourself some insignificant handles."
Leaving yourself more insignificant handles?
Liang Qu's eyes flickered, and he took out several banknotes from his pocket.
"This is……"
"The Whale Gang bribed me with silver notes, but they said there was no record of them, so I didn't know if they were real or not. There were originally three thousand taels, but I was worried that putting them on my body would disturb my mind, so when I looked for them later, most of them had been destroyed by Liu Jie's sword energy.
Now there are only 1,200 taels left, and there are two 300 tael notes in it that are badly damaged, I don’t know if they can be used.”
Although the whole fight did not seem to have much risk afterwards, the lion still used all its strength to fight the rabbit.
Ordinary people know to take off valuables first when fighting, so Liang Qu couldn't have failed to understand that.
The more you care about it, the more you can't take it, otherwise you might lose your body if you lose your concentration. So many banknotes have been soaked in water, but the paper used for the banknotes is very special, it is "mulberry paper" mixed with "waste official paper".
It not only achieved the purpose of destroying official documents and archives, but also changed the color of the banknote paper, making it a special green-yellow-gray color, which was very thick and did not deform much after being soaked in water and dried in time.
Xu Yuelong said: "You can keep it. One thousand taels of silver is not a lot. If it were an ordinary boss, you would have to give 70% of it. I don't need it, so you can keep it for yourself.
But this is your first time to go on such a big mission, so remember to buy something to honor your master."
Liang Qu nodded. He felt that with Xu Yuelong's status and wealth, he should really think so and not just be polite.
"Thank you, Brother Xu!"
"I've already told you that you don't have to thank me for what you did. If you really want to thank someone, I should be the one to thank you. There aren't many opportunities to embarrass Wei Lin!"
As he was speaking, Xu Yuelong had already passed Liang Qu, sat down in his seat, and picked up the ink pen to write the briefing himself.
This is a perfect opportunity.
He wanted to send a message back immediately and send people to the surrounding counties to check the situation to see if there was an organization similar to the Whale Gang like in Fengbu County.
The commotion was so big that it was unlikely to completely conceal it from Wei Lin, but with the first-mover advantage, he could at least account for more than 70% of the credit.
Wei Lin is an arrogant and violent person, a real martial arts madman who will fight to the death. Few of his peers dare to compete with him.
In terms of pure strength, it’s not that he is definitely unbeatable, but Xu Yuelong is a little afraid of him because of his madness.
The first two generations of the Xu family were able to suppress the Wei family, but it was his generation that was intimidated...
It doesn't matter whether it's a credit or not, what matters most is to see Wei Lin get humiliated.
Seeing that Xu Yuelong was busy, Liang Qu looked around to make sure that the members of the Whale Gang were not dawdling.
Boxes of gold and silver were carried out of the house one after another, and the women in the family huddled in a corner, shivering.
The Whale Gang is much richer than imagined, and the three thousand taels mentioned as a bribe on the pleasure boat was all just a rhetoric.
At least several thousand taels of gold and silver were carried out.
Brother Liu Jie was not that stupid. They knew that the other party was here to ask for money, so they exposed their fat intestines and waited for people to come and squeeze the oil out of them.
Taking out three thousand taels suddenly meant bleeding, but it wasn't to the point of breaking any bones.
Outside the headquarters building, the orderly footsteps mixed with the sound of rain.
A group of officials in black uniforms filed in.
In less than a moment, they filed out again. The clerks, who usually looked so majestic, were standing guard outside in the rain and had no chance to intervene at all.
After Xu Yuelong finished writing the briefing, he rolled up the paper and stuffed it into the wooden tube. He disappeared in a few flashes and reappeared after a moment.
Liang Qu didn't know what method Xu Yuelong used to communicate, but what was surprising was that before midnight, Ran Zhongshi led a few people over.
It took him more than a day to get from Pingyang County to Fengbu County, so how many hours had passed?
Xu Yuelong stepped forward quickly.
"How's it going?"
Ran Zhongshi took off his raincoat and panted heavily, saying, "There are thirteen counties in the entire Huaiyin Prefecture. We don't have enough manpower, so we focus on the six counties along the river. They have the largest fishing population and are most likely to breed borers. I have already sent people there, and I believe there will be results soon."
"Have you notified the people from the Three Judicial Departments? I need them to clean up the mess and arrest the gang members. I don't trust the people in the county government."
"I've already notified them. I sent this as an emergency message. I estimate their people will arrive at noon tomorrow."
"Okay!" Xu Yuelong raised his hand and bowed, "Thank you all for your hard work tonight and the day after tomorrow!"
"Don't dare take it!"
Everyone responded with a salute and then dispersed, leaving only a martial artist Liang Qu didn't recognize to look after the Whale Gang.
Xu Yuelong looked at Liang Qu.
"You've worked hard today. Go down and have a rest. When you go back and report your achievements, you will definitely get two great achievements. Maybe you can even be promoted to the eighth rank."
As he spoke, the martial artist beside him showed envy.
He had already understood the whole process when he came. He never expected that the matter of a small monster could lead to two great achievements and even a promotion of one rank.
What kind of luck is this?
"Then I'll go first."
Liang Qu stood up. He was indeed very tired. After a great battle, he rushed to the Whale Gang without stopping and had not rested from morning till midnight.
Besides, he wanted to leave a few hours ago.
During the half day they spent searching for the Whale Gang's headquarters, the fat catfish and their companions were swimming in the waters of Fengbu County and found something very strange.
