Chapter 83 Appointment to Official Positions
Li Xingqi left, Liu Yi started to get busy again, in addition to the original things, now Liu Yi has to be responsible for the transportation of ore, which almost tires him to the ground.
"No, if you do this every day, you have to exhaust me to death." Liu Yi said breathlessly as he lay on the table.
"Won't you divide things up with someone else? How can you be such an official? Ke Rin said as he drank, his expression looking very leisurely.
"You're pretty laid-back, aren't you busy with that stall?" Liu Yi asked curiously.
"Now that there are no robbers, and all kinds of underworld figures have left Yaqiu, the law and order situation is much better than before." Ke Rin said proudly: "Even if there are some petty thieves, do they dare to make a mistake in front of me?" ”
"It's still easy to take care of your mess, there are too many things on my side, and it's not enough to split me into four." Liu Yi complained.
"I didn't say you, you can't do this." Ke Rin took a sip of wine and continued: "How can you be an official like this, you look at the other committee members, who don't have a group of people under them, and let the people below do everything." If you're like you, you'll be exhausted to death sooner or later. ”
"You mean let me find a few helpers too?"
"Of course, no matter how you say it now, you are also the most powerful person in Yaqiu City, there are few people to help you with things, and you don't look like an official at all!"
"I didn't expect it, it turns out that you can be an official better than me!" Liu Yi said with a smile.
Ke Rin was also not polite, patted his chest and said: "That's natural, you don't want to think that I turned out to be the big boss of the Iron Cavalry Gang, if I didn't know a little bit of the art of mastery, how could I control so many people?" ”
After listening to Ke Rin's words, Liu Yi felt deeply reasonable, he was indeed inferior to Ke Rin in this regard, he only knew that he did everything himself, and he didn't know how to use the strength of others, so he had to learn more from Ke Rin in the future.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, I'll find a few people to help me do things another day." Liu Yi said.
"That's it, I'll help you keep an eye on it, and I'll introduce it to you if there's a suitable one." Kirin said.
The two were chatting when Liu Yi's portable computer suddenly sounded. Liu Yi clicked on it and saw that it was a letter from the teacher Yu Wensong, so he immediately opened it and looked at it.
It turned out that Yu Wensong told Liu Yi in the email that there was already an eyebrow about applying for him for awards and positions, and this matter had to be delayed for a while, but it happened that Liu Yi and they completely exterminated the robbers, and now the relevant departments have passed the review, and the official document will be officially issued soon.
In addition, Yu Wensong also said that although there must be an official position, it is still unknown what position he will give in the end, and he has not received any news from many inquiries.
Liu Yi was in a good mood after reading the email, and said to Ke Rin: "Good news for you, our position has almost been completed, but we don't know what it is yet." ”
Ke Rin was also overjoyed when he heard this, rubbed his hands and said, "This is great! I didn't expect that I, Ke Rin, would be able to mix up a half-official position, and see who would dare to scold Lao Tzu for being an underworld in the future! ”
The two laughed for a while, and Liu Yi suddenly sighed: "It's just a pity for Shangguan, he just doesn't want me to report his name, so there is no position for him this time." ”
"Shangguan, this guy is really incomprehensible to people sometimes, and he missed the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in vain." Ke Rin also sighed.
A few days later, the commendation and appointment documents of Liu Yi and others were officially sent to Lu Gang, and Lu Gang notified Liu Yi as soon as possible.
Liu Yi called Ke Rin and hurried to Lu Gang's office without even a minute of delay.
As soon as he entered the door, Ke Rin shouted loudly: "Lao Lu, where is my appointment letter?" Show it to me! ”
Lu Gang smiled bitterly: "Look at you, why are you still afraid that the appointment letter will run away?" ”
"I'm in a hurry, this is the first time I've been rewarded when I'm so old, I'm afraid you're more anxious than me."
"Got it, got it, waited!" After Lu Gang finished speaking, he turned on his portable computer and called up Liu Yi and Ke Rin's commendation orders and appointment letters.
Lu Gang sent the document to the two people's portable computers, and the two hurriedly opened the file and looked at it carefully.
The first part of the document is nothing more than some official articles, to the effect that as a citizen of the empire, it is the duty to serve the empire, but for the sake of encouragement, some rewards should be given.
Then there is the Commendation Order, where Liu Yi receives the title of Outstanding Citizen with a reward of 100,000 Imperial Coins, while Ke Rin receives the Commendation with the title of Outstanding Citizen and a reward of 50,000 Imperial Coins.
"It's okay, this money is enough for several years of wine." Kirin said with a grin.
"You know how to drink, take a look at your letter of appointment." Lu Gang smiled on the side.
Speaking of the letter of appointment, Liu Yi and Ke Rin both became serious, after all, this is the main thing, and the two of them are most concerned about this, and the reward of money is nothing to them.
Liu Yi opened his appointment letter and looked at it, only to see that it was written: Liu Yi is hereby appointed as a subordinate of the Ministry of National Defense, directly under the Planet Yaqiu Governor's Office, a member of the Yaqiu Defense Committee, and the chief of the Yaqiu Defense Training Supervision.
Seeing this appointment, Liu Yi was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth wide and didn't speak for a long time, and he had some indescribable feelings in his heart.
Lu Gang, who was on the side, saw that Liu Yi's expression was different, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" What position have you been appointed? ”
Liu Yi said: "What? You haven't seen it yet? ”
"No, I want you to be the first to see it." Lu Gang said.
Liu Yi smiled when he heard this, and then showed the appointment letter to Lu Gang, Lu Gang was also surprised after reading it, and said: "Why did you give an appointment to the Ministry of National Defense, I thought I would give a military ......."
Liu Yi turned his head and asked Ke Rin, "What's yours?" ”
Ke Rin said with an unhappy face: "It's similar to yours, it's also the Ministry of Defense, what Yaqiu Defense Commissioner, Yaqiu Public Security Supervisor." ”
Obviously, this appointment is not far from Liu Yi and Ke Rin's expectations, both of them thought that they would give themselves an idle in the army, so that they could be regarded as military people in the future, who knew that they were all subordinate officials of the Ministry of National Defense.
As we all know, the Ministry of Defense of the empire has very little power, and is mainly in charge of civil defense affairs in various places, and now giving appointments like Liu Yi and Ke Rin shows that the high-level people still regard them as militia or reserves.
After reading the appointments of the two, Lu Gang said with some regret: "It's a pity that they are all appointed by the Ministry of National Defense, but they can be regarded as having a position, so let's find a way to adjust it in the future." ”
Although Liu Yi was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't say anything on the surface, and Ke Rin was much more blunt.
"What a, we were born to fight in the war, and as a result, we were given such an appointment that is not like an official, this is to send a meal!"
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful of being heard." Lu Gang hurriedly dissuaded Ke Rin.
"Humph! I don't want this official at all, you can help me write a letter of thanks and hand it in. Ke Rin shouted angrily.
Lu Gang said: "Don't fool around, no matter what this official says, it is better than nothing, although it is said to be a national defense system, but there is still some military power more or less." ”
"What kind of soldier is the militia, and if you don't pay for the military, will you let me feed you?" Ke Rin said angrily.
"Okay, okay, that's all it takes to be an official, just move slowly in the future, anyway, it's not up to us to make up our minds now, as long as we advance the threshold, it's a good thing......" Lu Gang patiently persuaded Ke Rin.
Liu Yi listened silently on the side, never spoke, Lu Gang saw that Liu Yi didn't speak, but said that Liu Yi had already figured it out, so he didn't say anything more.
After today's incident, Liu Yishu recognized one thing clearly, it is impossible to expect the people above to understand their hard work, only if they have the strength, will they be valued by others.
"No wonder Li Xingqi has strong ambitions, probably he didn't suffer such grievances at the beginning......" Liu Yi said secretly.
Coming out of Lu Gang, Liu Yi said to Ke Rin: "I figured it out, this appointment is not necessarily a bad thing, now Yaqiu's most important armed force is the militia, Lu Gang has few people under him, and there is no additional dispatch from above, Yaqiu will have to rely on the militia in the future." ”
"But how can you feed the militia without money? Now that there are no robbers, those enterprises will soon stop cooperating, and how will we feed the people below when the time comes? Kirin said worriedly.
"If the company doesn't give money, we can make money on our own, don't forget that the transportation of ore is in my hands now, and this money will be earned back from this." Liu Yi sneered.
Ke Rin looked at Liu Yi and suddenly shuddered, feeling that Liu Yi seemed to be different from usual.
"In fact, now that the empire encourages militias to be organized in various places to resist the rebels, this is not an opportunity for us, it depends on whether we are bold enough." Liu Yi said.
"What do you mean...... Do we continue to expand the militia? ”
"Yes, as long as we are strong enough, we are not afraid that the higher authorities will not pay attention to us at that time, and one day the empire will face up to this problem, think about it, if militias are organized everywhere, how big will this be at that time, and how should the empire face these armed forces?"
Ke Rin thought for a while, and said slowly: "I thought that at that time, the empire would probably only be able to appease and integrate the militia. ”
"That's it, are you still afraid that the higher authorities won't pay attention to us when the time comes? When that day comes, I'm afraid it's our turn to make conditions. ”
"Makes sense...... Let's do it! Either we soar, or we will go back and continue to be the boss of my Iron Cavalry Gang, what are we afraid of! Ke Rin said with a fist.
At this time, Shangguanqi sent a request for a video call, and Shangguanqi appeared in the projection after Liu Yi was connected.
"Good news for you!" There was excitement in Shangguanzaki's tone.
"What's the good news?" Liu Yi and Ke Rin asked at the same time.
"We've found another bandit's base, guess what's inside?"
"Weapons? Material? ”
"No, it's ore, a lot of ore, and the whole base is full of ......," Shangguan Qi said with excitement.
