Li Guolou calmed down, and when he returned to his office, Ma Dequan immediately stood up when he saw Li Guolou enter the door, and said, "Captain Li, good afternoon!" ”

"Hmm······ Don't stand here like a mourning star, what should I do, the opportunity is for those who are prepared, and I will go to the martial arts arena to exercise if I have nothing to do. Li Guolou glanced at Ma Dequan and couldn't say anything awkward.

Li Guolou thought about getting rid of this outsider, but considering that Ma Dequan's family of more than a dozen people was supported by Ma Dequan alone, if he didn't want Ma Dequan, this person wouldn't even be able to support the family, so Li Guolou still took the package, and the team raised a person who was paid and didn't work.

Li Guolou felt that for Ma Dequan, he had been benevolent and righteous, he promoted Ma Dequan, let Ma Dequan lead a team of people, and established the first spear team of the Criminal Department, but now it has long been a matter of fact, Ma Dequan's yamen can only be a nobody, Ma Dequan will either leave his job and go to the society to break a road by himself, but people must be self-aware, Li Guolou saw Ma Dequan dead at a glance, a clumsy person, this society is useless.

Ma Dequan was released from prison and returned to the Yamen, but he was isolated by the brothers, doing nothing all day, and depressed and depressed, which made him a little disheartened.

Ma Dequan snorted: "Captain Li, I have nothing to do all day now, can I find a job!" ”

"Ma Bi, don't think about it too much, as long as I will cover you, but there is no banquet in the world, so you still have to be on duty, live in peace and stability, and when your son grows up in a few years, let him follow me, do you understand what I mean." Li Guolou didn't say it explicitly, so he had to ask Ma Dequan if he could understand the meaning of what he said.

Even if Ma Dequan is abolished in this life, no chief will use him, Li Guolou is now in the seat, and he also thinks of sharing some benefits to Ma Dequan, one day he leaves, even an old brother like Ai Hai will ignore Ma Dequan, if a person takes a wrong step, there will be no recovery, and the consequence of Ma Dequan joining the Baath Party is that there is no hope in this life, unless he is the head of the Baath Party and returns to the embrace of the Qing Empire, then it is another matter, and he can still be promoted as an official.

Ma Dequan hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to say, "Captain Li, why don't I be your family!" ”

"This ······" Li Guolou didn't expect that stupid people also have smart moments, so he couldn't get down, and said hesitantly: "Ma Cake, go to guard first, wait for two years, you have to behave well, I won't forget that we used to be brothers!" ”

"Yes, Captain Lee." Ma Dequan straightened his spine, put his right hand on his chest, gave a military salute, and turned to leave the office.

Li Guolou sighed softly, what a good person, why do you want to join the mysterious society, the missionary can speak well, he has the ability to resist, but most people can't resist the rhetoric of the missionary, the illiterate and ignorant civilians listen to the wind is the rain, rush to it, swear to follow those gods to the death, superstitious thoughts kill people.

Li Guolou saw the terrible spread of ideas, but all kinds of ideas and civilizations were like huge waves hitting the sky, and the Qing Empire was attacked by wave after wave, but the traditional conservative ruling class firmly controlled the program of the dynasty and refused to admit the progress of thought, and the undercurrent surged in the Qing Empire, waiting for the next outbreak.

"Hey, hey, hey." Ai Hai licked his face and stuck his head into the room, and said with a hippie smile: "Captain Li, it's okay for me to write a report!" ”

"Don't be trampled on my IQ, can the report be written, do you already know the mouth of the deceased with the red diamond, this is from the confession of the criminal, take it back to me and rewrite it." Li Guolou didn't give Ai Hai a good face, he couldn't even write superficial articles on the officialdom, and he forgot the basic principles of arrest.

"Hey." Ai Hai is accustomed to it, picking up the post on the table, and the chief always has to find some subordinates to handle, so as to highlight the wise leadership of the chief.

"Reward silver, have you brought it back?" Li Guolou asked.

Ai Hai Zhengse said: "Of course, I don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, Houmen is as deep as the sea, how can I not do things at once, a total of five hundred and fifty taels of silver, one tael is not a lot." After speaking, Ai Hai handed a stack of silver tickets to Li Guolou.

"Oh······ Cheng Kunyu is okay, give an extra fifty taels of silver. Li Guolou casually put fifty taels of silver tickets in his pocket, this is not necessary to hand over to his superiors Wu Defu, their brigade will divide it by themselves.

"What a fart." Ai Hai scolded angrily: "Our Zhang Xiuyu's family found some funeral goods for the dead of the Cheng Kunyu family, which are worth a thousand gold!" ”

"Oh······" Li Guolou was also a little angry in his heart, Cheng Kunyu, as a high-ranking official of the Manchurians, only entered and could not leave the master, and only after the pit was caught this reward, he gave an extra fifty taels of silver.

Li Guolou had a flash of inspiration, and immediately knew what was going on, and said with a smile: "Ai Bald, you are really stupid, Cheng Kunyu is not so stingy, it must be the housekeeper Chang Shikuan who has dropped a reward, you go and scare him, tell him that the benefits are half a cent, and there are always two hundred and fifty taels of silver!" ”

Ai Hai patted his head and said hurriedly: "Oh, why didn't I think of it, I'll do it now, let Gao Yao play the role of the god of death and scare people!" ”

Li Guolou looked at Ai Hai's hurried appearance, and raised his voice: "Deputy Ai Team, go early and return early, dinner in the evening!" ”

"Hey." Ai Hai was down-to-earth, knowing that Li Guolou did not blame him for poisoning Wu Defu, there are some things that the third brother Li Guolou does not need to say secret words and give orders, as the younger brother, if you want to understand the third brother's thoughts, the affairs of the despicable villain should be handled by his subordinates, Li Guolou wants to live in the halo and be worshiped forever.

In the afternoon, Li Guolou sat at the desk to review the post, wrote a good report, blew it with his mouth, and waited for the brush words to dry thoroughly, Juanxiu font is still quite eye-catching, Li Guolou Tao Taoran self-appreciation, it is good to stay in the house, and there is more time for Xi Wen to get ink, and this word will progress, and one day he will sit in a high position, and this text will be able to exchange money and houses.

Successful in business, selling official beards to the next level, cultivating cultural heritage, Li Guolou is in a comfortable mood, with excellent appearance and dexterity and good argumentation, he is already a successful person.

As usual, Li Guolou's monkey butt sat still, and before it was time to get off work, he was ready to leave the yamen, and his colleagues used early and late to work hard to rise step by step, which is also a trick used by the vast majority of people, and he has not had a few days of normal commuting from work since the day he went to work in the Criminal Department, and the chief couldn't touch him, Li Guolou put on a big-headed official hat and walked out of the office.

For his colleagues to sneer and sneer, he can't get used to his style, Li Guolou has long heard of it, on the surface he greets him kindly, but behind his back he says bad things about him in front of the chief, Li Guolou pretends to be affectionate and nods to several old pedants, he can't call people by name, people call him by his name.

Shuxiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and the line will be higher than the crowd, and the excellent work ability makes Li Guolou's criminal department unique, and it has become the object of Bao Tong's support, and there are also voices of criticism, the old scholar recorded Li Guolou's untimely behavior, and also dug out Li Guolou**, and recorded the file to smear Li Guolou, these old-fashioned people are unwilling to accommodate people, Li Guolou can only nod to them, and they can't say a piece of people, and they don't get along with each other.

Li Guolou slowly changed himself, and the yamen no longer wore alternatives, but he still stood out from the crowd, exuding a foreign atmosphere, and naturally became a fake foreign devil in the eyes of the world.

Li Guolou came to the door, his younger brother Cheng Kun had already called the carriage, Li Guolou put on an official ceremony, nodded slightly, boarded the carriage, a bit of a powerful person, accompanied by the guards around him, and there was a carriage to pick him up and drop off from work, but he was still not used to this kind of life, let the servants control his every move, the free space is getting smaller and smaller, Li Guolou still wants to live an unrestrained life.

At half past three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Guolou's carriage came to Jiangxiang in the east, and when he saw the plaque of the Anhui Fellow Townsmen's Association, Li Guolou thought that the five fellow villagers would participate in the imperial examination next month, and they should visit them once at the honor of the landlord, but it was still early anyway.

Li Guolou slapped the carriage and said casually: "Master, stop the car and stop here!" ”

Li Guolou held the official hat in his hand, jumped out of the carriage, and counted thirty copper coins to the coachman.

"Thank you, sir." The old coachman bowed and saluted, his face full of folds squeezed together, and the traces of the vicissitudes of time were engraved on his face.

"No thanks, labor is glorious." Li Guolou said hello to the coachman.

Walking in the hall wearing official robes, the people around saw Li Guolou all bowing their heads, the women were blessing him, and there were prostitutes who showed flowers and branches to throw flattering eyes at Li Guolou, Li Guolou felt strange, why did the prostitutes come to the hall to sit on the stage so early, and where did the rich people live in the hall.

"Fake foreign devil, you are wearing an official robe, do you want to collect money?" Fan Dahui opened the room and saw Li Guolou dressed up, and couldn't help but be jealous and red-eyed.

"What's the matter, can't I come, who called the prostitute just now." Li Guolou craned his neck to look at the people in the room.

"Hey, hey, hey." The five people in the room immediately turned into mute shells and could only giggle.

"It's too unusual, people are going out to love the little girl, and you promise each other, you can bring the prostitute back." Although Li Guolou was young, he put on the prestige of the boss and reprimanded five fellow villagers.

"God Catch, how do you know that we went out." Zhu Dinghe couldn't believe it, Li Guolou knew what they had done before he even stepped into the room.

"Hey." Li Guolou sat comfortably on the chair and smiled: "Because I smell the breath of spring and the fragrance of wild flowers!" ”

"Oh······" The five students suddenly realized that a bouquet of wildflowers in a vase on the table betrayed their whereabouts.

Li Guolou's body was full of scratches, and the five students enviously touched Li Guolou's official robe.

"Fake foreign devils, don't forget our fellow countrymen when you send it in the future!"

"Chief Li, can I be your master!"

"Master Li, I don't have high requirements, you are a good person, and the more bonuses, the better!"

The five fellow villagers joked with Li Guolou one after another, and they couldn't wait to pull off Li Guolou's official robe and wear it once, and the five people took turns wearing the official hat.

Li Guolou couldn't say it in his heart, his position was a false title, but the official hat was a real nine-grade official, he had turned into a phoenix, jumped on the branches, and the mountains looked up to people.

Xiucai local through the school or state and county examination to obtain the title of "apprentice" and "township tribute", there is a qualification to rely on the entrance examination, relying on the Jinshi after the Hanlin Academy to revise and compile, learn how to be an official for three years, and then let go to the local official, unless the examination is a top three, that is, the champion, the list eye, Tanhua, the emperor will directly grant the official position, so the examination of the Jinshi is not a step to the sky, there is a period of hard life to suffer, want to obtain a nine-grade official hat, for the Jinshi born people to go through a lot of hardships, it is not an easy thing, but the Han people want to be officials, Only by taking the single-plank bridge of scientific research, no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to squeeze your head, and the dream of a scholar is the Hanlin Academy, worship a good teacher, and the career starts from the revision of history books.

The five fellow villagers were extremely jealous of Li Guolou wearing an official robe and a red-capped official hat, and they looked down on Li Guolou behind their backs, and slandered Li Guolou countless times, but they never thought that Li Guolou would become an official like this.

Li Guolou said in a superior tone: "You five, I don't know how many times I have said it, be honest, good students read and recite scriptures, but what about you, take my words as the wind in your ears, five people and two prostitutes together, I really don't know what to say about you!" ”

Li Guolou is angry, there are five people with an age difference of more than ten years, as energetic as a twenty-year-old person, five catch two, and in broad daylight, it is really a shame to lose the face of Hefei, Anhui.
