Humming a little tune, Chang Kun rode his bicycle into the city.

I felt very happy after doing a good deed.

I feel a little sorry for Grandpa Yang. He's still searching for the thief in the cornfield. I wonder what his expression will be when he still can't find the thief after searching the whole cornfield.

I rode my bike all the way to the elementary school where Cheng Min works, and arrived at the school just in time.

"Chang Kun, you came to see me?" Upon seeing Chang Kun, Cheng Min happily jumped out of the car and skipped over to him.

"I'm going to work, and I thought I'd drop by to see you."

Women love to hear nice things. Hearing Chang Kun say that, Cheng Min was overjoyed and her face beamed with happiness.

"It's a pity I can't take the day off today, so I can't go out and have fun... Oh, by the way, remember to collect your payment from the literary journal."

"Yes, I know. My mother told me about it last night. Also, these pants need to be altered a little here." Chang Kun handed the pants to Cheng Min.

"Huh? Did I misread the size?" Cheng Min tilted her head and looked Chang Kun up and down, then shook her head: "There's definitely no problem. The pant legs aren't narrow, and the length should be just right. My eyesight is always very accurate."

Chang Kun leaned close to her ear and whispered something.

Cheng Min stared at Chang Kun with her eyes wide open, her mouth agape, and a blush instantly spread across her cheeks, especially her earlobes, which were so red they looked like they were about to bleed.

She glared at Chang Kun with annoyance, then secretly glanced at his crotch. Her eyes seemed to be burned, and Cheng Min quickly looked away, pretending to be calm.

"I...I have to go to work..."

He snatched the pants, pushed his bicycle, and rushed into the school gate.

She had heard her married female colleagues make crude jokes and had some knowledge of those things between men and women. She never expected that Chang Kun would complain that the crotch of the pants she made for him was too tight.

She had no idea what was hidden inside! But now she knew.

Pooh!

Cheng Min mentally spat, touched her burning cheeks, and shook her head to clear her mind of the jumbled thoughts.

Chang Kun watched Cheng Min flee in panic with a smile, thinking to himself, "People these days are so naive. I only mentioned the size, and she's already so embarrassed."

It was getting late, so I got on my bike and soon arrived at the railway police station.

"Junior brother, junior brother..."

Before even entering the office, Hou Jun was seen standing by the door shouting.

"Monkey King, did you hear me? Stop yelling!"

Since he couldn't correct the way he was addressed as "junior brother," Chang Kun simply ignored it.

"Hey, junior brother, good news! The section chief wants to see you in his office. I heard he caught nine thieves yesterday and is going to give them a reward."

Chang Kun raised an eyebrow: "Oh? That's really a good thing."

Getting a reward on the first day of work? That's fast! No wonder Monkey King looked envious.

'Knock knock knock'.

Knock on the door and enter the section chief's office.

"Section Chief, you wanted to see me?"

"Chang Kun is here? Come, sit down..." Zhang Qingfeng smiled as he faced his subordinate who had just been transferred here and had already caught nine thieves.

Yesterday, I spent the whole morning drinking with my old comrade-in-arms, Fang Qingsheng, and we got a clear picture of Chang Kun's past and present achievements.

Chang Kun is not only skilled at catching thieves and enemies, but he is also adept at hunting. Once, he went to Northeast China and caught more than a dozen black bears in just ten days.

Zhang Qingfeng was so happy to have such a promising talent transferred to his section that he could practically wake up laughing in his dreams.

"Try this special cigarette I have." Zhang Qingfeng took a cigarette out of a wooden box and handed it to Chang Kun.

For capable subordinates, it is natural to show goodwill and win them over.

"Thank you, Section Chief." Chang Kun was taken aback; he hadn't even offered Section Chief a cigarette yet, and now the tables had turned.

Looking down at the Golden Leaf cigarette, he hurriedly took out a match from his pocket to light it for the section chief; he couldn't possibly wait for the section chief to light it for him.

"Oh, don't mention it, I have this."

Zhang Qingfeng took a lighter out of the drawer and gestured to Chang Kun: "Never seen this before, have you? This is a rare item. Let me light your cigarette for you."

Chang Kun reached out and blocked it, then took the lighter in his hand. It was a kerosene lighter, the metal sheet polished to a shine, with a rotating wheel for starting the fire.

He twirled the lighter in his hand a few times. This kind of thing was indeed rare nowadays; it was the first time he had ever seen one.

"Smash!" The fire was lit and brought to the section chief's mouth.

The two lit cigarettes and took a satisfying drag. The special-supply cigarettes were truly extraordinary. The Golden Leaf cigarettes of later generations could not compare to those of today; the rich and mellow taste was far inferior.

"Where have I seen you handle a lighter so skillfully?" Zhang Qingfeng thought it looked kind of cool as he watched the lighter spin and dance in Chang Kun's hand.

"Yeah, I've seen it before," Chang Kun casually brushed it off, thinking he'd get a lighter sometime in the future.

Seeing Chang Kun's reluctance to part with the lighter, Zhang Qingfeng laughed and said, "This lighter was a gift from a comrade-in-arms, otherwise I would have given it to you. If you like it, catch a few more thieves later. Some thieves have better stuff on them than I do, and maybe one of them will have a lighter."

"good!"

After thieves are caught, the items in their possession can be disposed of at their discretion, which is quite a unique feature of this situation.

After the two finished their cigarettes, Zhang Qingfeng spoke: "Chang Kun, given that you caught nine thieves on your first day at work yesterday, the department has specially approved a reward of a Shanghai brand watch."

As he spoke, he took a shiny watch out of the drawer and handed it over.

This is a silver metal watch with black hands on the dial and a link-by-link steel bracelet.

This classic domestically produced watch, in this day and age, can showcase an extraordinary status and quality.

Taking the watch, Chang Kun examined it for a moment, then looked up and asked, "Section Chief, this... why is it a women's watch?"

The reward I gave myself was a women's watch.

"Hehe." Zhang Qingfeng chuckled and pointed at Chang Kun: "Yesterday I was drinking with your uncle, and we were thinking about what reward to give you."

"You already have a watch, and I heard you and Lao Fang's niece are getting married soon. Here's a women's watch for you, you know what I mean... No need to thank me."

The leaders really know how to talk. In reality, most of the police officers in the section are men. The men's watches have already been given out as rewards, leaving only the women's watches.

"Also, as for the reward you received for catching nine thieves, our department will hold an internal commendation ceremony later. You must keep up the good work."

Chang Kun nodded indifferently.

These days, everyone loves recognition and awards, and has a strong sense of honor. Even a small reward can make people work with boundless enthusiasm and dedication.

In later generations, things were different. If you achieved good results at work, you would only receive a certificate, but no bonus or commission. No one would work seriously at all.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Zhang Qingfeng asked, "Chang Kun, I heard from Lao Fang that you're quite the hunter?"

"I'm just lucky; I occasionally manage to catch some prey."

"Yes, that's right. In about ten days, it will be National Day. Not counting the other subordinate police stations, there are forty-five people in the general office alone. I was thinking, since you're good at hunting, could you get some meat as a National Day bonus for them?"

"Of course, we're paying for this piece of meat, so you definitely won't lose money. We'll cover the market price with our own funds and even add a little extra for you."
