The First Marquis of Daxuan

Chapter 56: Ninth Grade (Please read, collect, and vote for the monthly ticket)
"I have another question."

Su Mu asked seriously.

"explain."

Zhao Po Nu cherishes words as if they were gold.

"Before we officially join the Taiping Division, what is our status? A commoner or an official?"

Su Mu asked, "Don't get me wrong, I don't care whether I have an official position or not. I just want to ask whether we have the power to enforce the law. If the name is right, then the words will be legitimate."

He finally became a foreman and could earn forty points a day.

If joining the Taiping Division would mean becoming a commoner again and earning only one or two dollars a day, he would probably regret it.

Without the blessing of his identity, his understanding and qualifications would be reduced to their original state.

"Once you join the Taiping Division, you will naturally be an official."

Zhao Po Nu said, "The commander of the Taiping Division is the seventh rank; the lieutenant is the sixth to fifth rank; the pacification envoy is the fourth rank.

The rank is just for the convenience of measuring salary and benefits. Those above the rank of Taipingsi Duwei are one level higher than the official.

Before you become a captain and have the word "Taiping" embroidered on your name, you will enjoy the ninth-rank treatment and be treated as a ninth-rank official when you go out on missions."

Su Mu was somewhat surprised when he heard this.

Are interns equivalent to ninth-rank officials? Are captains equivalent to seventh-rank officials?
The top leader of Nancheng, Sima of Nancheng Si, is only a seventh-rank official.

What's more, the Duwei of Taiping Division is one level higher in rank, which means that the Duwei's real status is higher than that of Sima of Nancheng Division!
What does it mean to reach the sky in one step?
This is a quick success.

No wonder everyone feels both envy and fear when talking about the Taiping Division.

The Taiping Division is indeed a place of unparalleled honor and favor.

"Since you were discovered by Captain Lin Qihuan, then you should follow him from now on."

Zhao Po Nu said, "Let him tell you the other rules."

As he spoke, Zhao Po Nu took a step forward and disappeared at the end of the street in a few steps.

"Brother Taiping," Lin Qihuan patted Su Mu's shoulder, "Don't look at it, it's still too early for you to catch up with Lao Zhao's strength."

"Let's get to know each other again. I'm Lin Qihuan, the captain of the Taiping Division. From now on, I'll be your boss. You can just call me that."

"Boss, what do I need to do now?"

Su Mu spoke with a little restraint.

"I'm the one guarding South City. You don't have to move. Just continue to do what you did before."

Lin Qihuan said, "If you find any trace of the demon, don't act rashly and notify me in time."

"I don't have to move to the inner city?"

Su Mu asked with some confusion, he was the squad leader before, isn't he an intern at the Taiping Division now?
"What are you going to do in the inner city?"

Lin Qihuan asked doubtfully, "Your current mission is to keep an eye on South City. As long as no demons appear, you can do whatever you are supposed to do. I don't care."

"I have already joined the Taiping Division. I can't be a constable in the Nancheng Division anymore, right?"

Su Mu asked in confusion.

"Strictly speaking, you are not a member of the Taiping Division yet."

Lin Qihuan said, "Although we have given you ninth-rank official status, you are still in the probation period. If you can't pass it, you will have to go back to where you came from."

"You are too weak right now. I can't take you on a mission even if I want to. So, you should stay in South City for now and practice more on your own. And keep an eye on South City to see if there are any monsters appearing. That's all."

Lin Qihuan said casually, "I suggest you keep this identity of a constable for now.

First, it is convenient to do things, and second, it is good to have two salaries, isn't it?"

Su Mu was speechless. Is it possible to play like this?

But since his boss had said so, of course he wouldn't object.

"I will arrange for someone to help you change your household registration and handle the relevant formalities. I will have someone send you clothes, badges, and weapons later."

Lin Qihuan looks aloof, but he is actually a warm-hearted person.

Otherwise, he would not have given Su Mu the Fu Bo Sword Technique. "There's nothing else. You're too weak now and can't do anything."

Lin Qihuan said, not forgetting to strike Su Mu.

"Boss, does the Taiping Division have any techniques or martial arts secrets? How can I learn them?"

Seeing that Lin Qihuan was about to leave, Su Mu quickly asked.

"There are two ways. One is to buy it with silver, and the other is to exchange it with merit points."

Lin Qihuan said, "For those below the rank of captain, you can only purchase and exchange the body-tempering technique and one blood-exchanging technique. If you want one, you can go to the inner city and exchange it yourself."

Su Mu thought about it and there was nothing else to do for the time being.

At this time, Lin Qihuan was already striding forward.

"Boss, if I find a demon, how can I inform you?"

Su Mu patted his forehead and asked loudly.

"You'll know."

Lin Qihuan's voice was heard, and he leaped up, jumped a few times on the roof, and disappeared in the direction of the inner city.

"He's a little handsome."

Watching Lin Qihuan disappear, Su Mu muttered in his heart.

I don’t know how strong Lin Qihuan is, but he is much stronger than me, and I can’t see through him.

"Although I didn't get to move to the inner city as I wished, I have the confidence to stay in the outer city with my status as a Taiping Division intern."

Su Mu thought to himself, "I can continue to be the squad leader. Lin Tou'er is right. Why not take the two salaries?"

Just as he was thinking about it, Su Mu saw Wang Liu and two other constables hurriedly running over from the street entrance.

"Squad leader, Captain Zhao is calling for you."

Wang Liu hurriedly came to Su Mu and said.

Zhao Ji is looking for me?

Su Mu was somewhat confused. These past few days, He Yuxing and Zhao Ji had almost no presence at all.

They haven't appeared in front of Su Mu for a long time.

I don’t know why he suddenly looked for him. Could it be that He Yuxing has thought it through and really wants to appoint me as the head of the police?
Or do they know that I'm already an intern at the Taiping Division?
With doubts, Su Mu came to the yamen of Nanchengsi.

Zhao Ji is the acting chief constable. Although he has not been formally appointed, he is now working in the office that originally belonged to Xing Zhaofu.

The office is spacious and bright, but the messy documents on the desk somewhat affect the appearance.

"Team leader Su, several people have recently died in Wulimiao Village outside the south city for unknown reasons. The other squad leaders have important tasks to attend to. Please take the trouble to make a trip and find out the situation."

Zhao Ji pushed a file to the table with a cold face and said, "If someone committed the crime, then bring the murderer back."

Wulimiao Village is located on the outskirts of Nancheng and is also under the jurisdiction of Nancheng.

Catching criminals and thieves is the duty of the constables.

Zhao Ji is still the acting chief of police, so it is normal for him to assign tasks to Su Mu.

Su Mu hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse. He picked up the case file and bowed, saying, "Yes."

As soon as he walked out of Zhao Ji's classroom, Su Mu was pulled to a deserted place by someone.

"Have you taken on the Wulimiao Village case?"

Zheng Wang looked around and whispered.

"I accepted it. Captain Zhao arranged it, so I couldn't refuse."

Su Mudao said that you can also get performance points for solving cases.

"The man surnamed Zhao has no good intentions!"

Zheng Wang sighed, "You shouldn't have agreed! I'm telling you, the case in Wulimiao Village is suspected to be caused by demons. We can't handle this case. We should report it to the Taiping Division!"
