Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

The following morning, Thursday, Prosecutor Solawon came down to Qingluan and summoned Zhou Hong to his office.

"Your charity foundation, it's really just for charity, right?" Soravon asked with a serious expression.

"Yes, I heard that my teacher's wife has always liked doing good deeds. I don't have time to manage this foundation, so I hired a professional manager. But we need someone from our own circle to keep an eye on things, right? I don't trust people I don't know well, so I thought I'd trouble my teacher's wife. Of course, I wouldn't dare to do it on my own if my teacher doesn't agree." Zhou Hong said with the same serious expression.

Solauon nodded. "Okay, go ahead. I understand."

As Zhou Hong turned to leave the room, he suddenly paused.

One more person has been rescued. A new colored avatar has appeared in the candidate servant column. Who else could it be but Pam, the teacher's wife?

Ah, this...

After thinking for a moment, even though no one else could see his operating system, he still sneakily moved his teacher's wife, Pam, into the servant column like a thief.

In the fourth row, alongside the "dogs" that Kam Sha-tsai employs, the note reads "Career Servant," with an annual allowance of 5 days' salary.

That is, the annual allowance for the benevolent elder is 8 US dollars.

A short while later, my phone beeped with text messages: $4 and $8 in earnings, and a third transaction, plus a bunch of miscellaneous fees.

Whether it's a servant or a "reclusive area," when activated, the welfare payment is supplemented from the "white service" stage.

Therefore, whether servants are recruited early or late, or whether "niche" accounts are opened early or late, doesn't matter.

But how should we spend this $12 on my teacher's wife?

My master and his wife are not at the stage where we can directly give them money right now.

Especially the $4 for the white-collar phase, with a one-month grace period, which must be spent within a month.

Thinking it over, Zhou Hong looked at Liu Ying, the little green tea in the third row. She was on a ten-day payroll, which would amount to $8 during her white-collar service. Now, with only seven or eight days left before the 30-day grace period, she was ready to start her service.

……

Around noon, the little black girl came over and asked to treat everyone to a meal.

The "G-Wagon" driven by the prosecutor is a luxury car worth tens of millions of baht. Isn't it a piece of cake to entertain guests?

Zhou Hong's phone suddenly rang. It was Boss Zhao from the "Cinnamon Hotel," who was overjoyed: "Hong, ah, Prosecutor Hong, thank you, thank you so much! Monkey is alright, alright! Thank you!"

"No fines are required, right?" Zhou Hong asked.

"No need, nothing at all. They've agreed not to pursue this matter!" Boss Zhao was in high spirits, as if he wanted to sing a song.

"That won't do. You should tell the middleman to make them compensate Haoming with 50 baht for emotional distress."

"Huh?" Boss Zhao was clearly dumbfounded and didn't know how to reply.

"I understand that you still need to do business here and don't dare to offend them, but do you think things are really over? Maybe I can help you a little when I'm here, but what about when I'm not? I think teaching them a lesson will actually make your shop more peaceful in the near future."

Boss Zhao remained silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Prosecutor Hong, I... I'll listen to you, but if something happens, you can't abandon me."

Zhou Hong smiled and asked, "Will my apartment be ready to move into soon?"

"Yes, yes, it's just getting some fresh air. Actually, you can move in tonight," Boss Zhao said hurriedly.

"I'll come to your place for lunch, so please prepare the dishes, using the best ingredients you can find."

"Okay, okay, no problem!" Boss Zhao readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Hong looked at the little black girl who was still pouting and laughed, "Let's go, you little glutton, let's go to the Cinnamon Hotel and see if Boss Zhao can give me a surprise!"

"Okay, thank you, brother!" The little black girl immediately turned from angry to happy, and she had long since changed her way of addressing Zhou Hong from "Prosecutor Hong" to "brother".

"Call your second brother over," Zhou Hong said again.

"Him?!" The dark-skinned girl immediately pouted, looking at Zhou Hong suspiciously. "Brother, are you inviting me or him?"

"Do I need to invite you? You're always freeloading off me!" Zhou Hong rolled his eyes.

The young woman chuckled, "That's right, okay, I'll tell him to get lost!"

……

Little Black Girl's ancestors were once wealthy; her great-grandfather was once the chief of the Qingluan County Police Station.

However, each generation is worse than the last. Although Xiao Hei Mei's father also entered the public sector, he was only the deputy director of the Women and Children Development Office of the county government, responsible for welfare projects related to women and children, and his power was negligible.

The little black girl has three older brothers. Her second brother graduated from police academy and entered the police force, holding the rank of "sergeant" in his early thirties.

The police system in Xiangguo is structured as follows: First-Class Constable - Corporal - Sergeant - Senior Sergeant - Sergeant Major (Chief) - Senior Sergeant (Warrant Officer).

This is the police officer stage. Once you reach the rank of lieutenant, you become a real police officer.

Second Lieutenant—First Lieutenant—Captain—Major—Lieutenant Colonel—Colonel—Senior Colonel (Brigadier General).

Above them are the generals.

The name of the second brother of the little black girl is pronounced Dam, which actually means "black". In the Elephant Kingdom, it is normal to use colors as names.

Unlike his sister, Chief Erhei is tall and burly, but he dotes on his sister and dares not disobey her in the slightest.

Of course, in public, the little black girl is still very tactful and will not embarrass her second brother.

The table was laden with a sumptuous feast, including a steamed lobster. No one knew where Boss Zhao had sourced the ingredients.

Upon seeing the wine Zhou Hong produced, Chief Inspector Erhei froze, jumping up to snatch it from his hand: "Louis XIII? Is it really Louis XIII?!"

The current market price is over 80,000 baht, which is roughly 16,000 to 17,000 yuan.

Zhou Hong laughed and said, "Erhei, you've had it before?"

"Where am I supposed to drink? Our bureau chief has a bottle at home, he treats it like royalty, I've seen it!" Erhei chuckled, looking at Zhou Hong: "Prosecutor Hong, you've really gone to great lengths today! My little sister is too willful, she's been spoiled since she was little and has no concept of money, please bear with her!"

Zhou Hong laughed and said, "No, I quite like Little Black Girl's personality!"

The little black girl pouted, "That's right, Second Brother! Your sister is so cute, everyone loves her and flowers adore her!"

Erhei was stunned for a moment. Well, girl, you've clearly become sworn brothers with such a good brother-in-law. You're really heartless.

But thinking about it again, this Prosecutor Hong, you can tell at a glance that he is the young master of a big family in a big city. The fact that he is so kind to my sister is a great blessing for her.

Over drinks and conversation, they talked about the police force and prosecutors. When Xiao Hei, the young woman, was focusing on the prosecutorial system, and Er Hei was discussing the crucial role of the police in solving cases, Xiao Hei silenced him with a single sentence: "Aren't there many wrongful convictions? It's because you deliberately ignore the prosecutors' due powers!"

Erhei immediately raised his hands in surrender, "Hey girl, do you even count as a cop like me? How could I possibly control you?"

Erhei is an undercover officer in the county police department; in layman's terms, he's a detective.

Zhou Hong chuckled, "Erhei, I heard you're a key member of the local criminal investigation team?"

In the case of Xiangguo, the average population of a province (or prefecture) is only a little over one million.

It is a three-tiered administrative system consisting of prefecture (province) – county – district (sub-district, township).

The police force is structured in a four-tier system: National Police Headquarters – Police Districts – Provincial Police Stations – Branch Offices.

A branch office is a county-level police station, but in larger counties, such as the directly administered county of Hekou Prefecture, which, according to Chinese custom, is the provincial capital Hekou City, there are multiple branch offices in the urban area.

Rural areas typically do not have police stations, while larger sub-districts (townships) have outposts, usually staffed with 2-5 officers, to handle the most basic police matters.

In addition, there are outposts in some sensitive areas and areas with complex security situations, including some tourist attractions.

As for the county police station (branch), there is no dedicated criminal investigation department.

The county police department is responsible for simple criminal investigations. When encountering difficult or complicated cases, they must be handed over to the prefectural (provincial) police department.

There are no dedicated criminal investigation detectives; cases are usually assigned to a police team on a temporary basis.

In Qingluan County, the five-person police team led by Erhei is often assigned to conduct preliminary work on criminal cases.

From a certain perspective, Erhei's group can be seen as the criminal investigation team of the county police station.

When Zhou Hong asked, Erhei didn't hold back and chuckled, "Back in police academy, I majored in criminal investigation and had excellent grades."

Little Black Girl finally gave her second brother a doting look: "My second brother is right about this. He can be proud for ten seconds."

"Oh, thank you, my dear little sister!" Erhei pouted.

Zhou Hong felt helpless. The system's translation was becoming more and more like a Northeastern Chinese dialect.

However, geographically speaking, Chiang Rai is indeed the northernmost and easternmost part of the country.

They chatted and laughed, drinking happily and having a great time. After Erhei left with his sister, Boss Zhao approached and whispered, "Prosecutor Hong, the middleman said they agreed to give 5 baht in compensation." He seemed a little excited, clearly not expecting the other party to actually agree to compensation.

Seeing Zhou Hong's G-Class and witnessing Zhou Hong's brotherly relationship with the plainclothes detective, Boss Zhao finally made up his mind to contact the middleman and demand compensation.

"50 baht, not a penny less." Zhou Hong chuckled. "Old Zhao, with your petty ways, you'll only end up on a worse path!"

Mr. Zhao, who had initially looked smug, paused, then gave a wry smile. Could it be? He really was demanding 50 baht?

Zhou Hong was pondering that after all his painstaking analysis of the legal provisions, he had determined that the guy who had been punched twice had actually committed the crime of "coercion".

The service fee alone must be more than 50 baht, right?

The "teacher" certainly wouldn't actually sue the other party for "coercion," but he did inform the police station to settle the matter peacefully.

From the teacher's perspective, this approach is perfectly acceptable.

But a teacher is a teacher, and you are yourself.

If I really just let it go like that, I'm afraid the teacher will look down on me even more.

There has to be some bloodshed on that side, so the other person feels the pain.

As for the price, the other party can plead with the teacher to lower the price, and the teacher can persuade you to ask for less. This is the right way to save face for the teacher.

This is how I first made my presence felt in Qingluan County.

Tell the Brahmin class in Chiang Luang that a certain figure you cannot ignore has appeared in Chiang Luang!
