Intelligence updates daily; I achieve sainthood in the martial arts of the public service.

Seeing that Tu Yuan answered without the slightest hesitation.

Zhang Tao nodded to himself.

These are the times when you can truly see what's in someone's heart.

Actually, compared to Tu Yuan, he did have better assistant options.

After all, Tu Yuan's current identity is still just a trainee police officer, and his martial arts strength has only just broken through to the first level of martial arts master.

However, Cheng Kai has now been taken away by the inspectors for investigation due to embezzlement of a fine, which makes him realize that his assistant must be a clean person.

He knew that his own trusted subordinates all had some channels for obtaining resources.

However, most of these channels operate on the fringes of the rules.

Of course, he could understand.

If you want to advance further in martial arts, you can only rely on salary; you have to spend a lot of time accumulating experience.

Zheng Hai was in this situation; he was nearly forty years old when he broke through to the level of a martial artist.

This is considered good luck. Normally, if you choose to break through at this age, the probability of failure is eight or nine out of ten.

To become a martial artist, it's best to break through before the age of thirty, or even before the age of twenty-five.

At this age, both physical and mental health are almost at their peak.

After the age of thirty, although the physical condition of a second-stage martial arts performer will not decline, their mental state and reaction speed will begin to deteriorate.

Choosing to break through at this point requires an element of luck.

Zheng Hai's breakthrough even made the news in Shengyun City.

This spurred many older second-stage martial arts practitioners, and during that period, there were daily reports of people in their thirties attempting to break through to the level of martial arts masters.

Without exception, all of them ended in failure.

During that period, many second-stage martial arts practitioners who had failed to break through their limits were lying in hospital beds in Shengyun City.

Those who were over thirty years old and had already reached the peak of the second stage of martial arts were much more obedient.

This is also why the number of new martial artists in Shengyun City is generally between thirty and fifty per month.

Ninety percent of people at the peak of the second transformation martial arts realm have a low probability of successfully breaking through, and dare not easily attempt to do so.

A failed breakthrough can result in severe damage to one's vitality at best, and permanent loss of strength at worst, preventing any further progress.

If he strictly requires his subordinates to be clean, his control over the Zhenghe Police Station will likely be greatly weakened.

Therefore, Zhang Tao could only turn a blind eye to these gray-channel incomes of his subordinates.

The reason Tu Yuan was chosen as an assistant was that he refused Li He's offer of 5,000 Federal Dollars.

In his view, Tu Yuan was a person with his own moral bottom line.

Such people are less likely to be exploited by their competitors.

He feels more at ease using it.

Of course, there's also Tu Yuan's behavior over the past two days. The two messages he sent prove that Tu Yuan's personal feelings are biased towards him.

Another point is that Tu Yuan is young enough and has great potential.

These factors combined were enough for him to overlook Tu Yuan's strength and his status as a trainee police officer.

"Okay! Leave me your phone number!"

"I'll have the command center arrange an office space for you later. This way, it will be easier for me to find you, and you can also learn more in the command center."

"As for your promotion, I will add your name when the various police stations submit their lists of outstanding probationary officers next time."

"Normally, the timeframe is around the middle of this month, and the results will be released within a week. If you have the title of Outstanding Probationary Police Officer, you can be promoted to a regular officer ahead of schedule."

"Of course, you are still a trainee police officer in the security team for now. I will inform Deputy Chief Zheng that you don't need to do any other police dispatches unless it is a major case."

As soon as Zhang Tao finished speaking, Tu Yuan immediately stood at attention and said, "Yes, Chief Zhang!"

"Director Zhang, I'll give you a call. Just make a note of it for me."

Tu Yuan knew Zhang Tao's phone number; it was publicly displayed at the institute.

He immediately took out his phone and dialed Zhang Tao's number. As soon as Zhang Tao's phone rang, he hung up immediately.

"Okay, you can go down now. Pack your things and the general management office will tidy up your workspace later. Someone will come to find you."

Tu Yuan stood at attention again and said yes.

Then he turned and left, gently closing the door behind him.

Only then did they arrive downstairs.

Back at my desk in the main office.

Tu Yuan then began packing his things.

Ma Xiaolian, who was standing to the side, had not yet encountered a police call. After seeing Tu Yuan being called up by Director Zhang, she came down and began packing her things.

He was completely stunned.

"Brother Yuan, what are you doing?"

"Need to move your office space?"

Tu Yuan nodded slightly and said:

"Yes! The director told me to move to the central command room."

"Huh?! You're going to work in the central command center? Holy crap!"

Ma Xiaolian now understood why Zhou Shucheng had been so polite to Tu Yuan that morning.

After all, some of the people who attended the banquet yesterday couldn't keep it a secret forever.

Tu Yuan is the younger brother of Director Zhang's concubine!

Because of this identity, so many people are both polite and enthusiastic towards Tu Yuan today.

That's probably why the director assigned me to the integrated command center.

This is the command center of Zhenghe Police Station.

It's also close to the leader's office.

Even though he was older than Tu Yuan, he no longer addressed Tu Yuan by his full name as he used to.

Instead, they directly upgraded Tu Yuan to Brother Yuan.

"Not exactly! Cheng Kai was taken away by the inspection team, and Director Zhang said he's temporarily short of an assistant to run errands for him."

"Let me temporarily take over Cheng Kai's work."

"So they arranged for me to move my office to the general management office on the second floor."

Upon hearing Tu Yuan's words, Ma Xiaolian's eyes widened instantly.

Assistant Director Zhang?!

Isn't this the director's right-hand man?

Ma Xiaolian's mind went blank for a moment.

In his view, Tu Yuan's situation was no different from attaining enlightenment and ascending to the upper realm in a single day.

Although Zhang Tao's prestige was affected today because of what happened at the institute.

Some even think that Cheng Kai might confess and drag Zhang Tao into a trap.

However, Ma Xiaolian could see clearly that no matter what Zhang Tao was like, his strength as a second-tier martial artist was undeniable.

The fact that Zhenghe Police Station has the strongest officer is absolutely true!

They have power, ability, and connections.

How could something like this happen so easily?

If Zhang Tao's position as director could be so easily challenged, then all those years of Zhang Tao's hard work would have been for nothing!

Coming to her senses, Ma Xiaolian immediately put on an extremely eager, even somewhat ingratiating, smile, and then stood up:

"Brother Yuan! Come on! Let me help you clean up! You don't need to do this yourself!"

Then he started tidying up Tu Yuan's computer keyboard and some files in the drawer.

Seeing this, Tu Yuan did not refuse.

Although Ma Xiaolian is a bit of a blabbermouth, she is quite good at gathering information.

Despite lacking connections and influence, their access to information was just as good as that of those with connections.

Now that he's the assistant director, he also needs to manage a few people he trusts within the Zhenghe Police Station.

He knew Ma Xiaolian quite well. The day before yesterday, when He Chengjun got angry, Ma Xiaolian, unaware of the inside story, still spoke up for him.

Soon, someone from the command center came and found Tu Yuan.

Tell him that the office space has been vacated and he can move there.

Tu Yuan then carried the things up to the second floor, but Ma Xiaolian tried to carry them herself, so he ended up only taking a cup and a file folder.

Ma Xiaolian helped move everything else.

Before long, news of Tu Yuan becoming Director Zhang's new assistant spread throughout the Zhenghe Police Station.
