Chapter 59: Trouble
Sycamore.
Compared with Jiutiaoli, Wutongli is not much larger in terms of overall jurisdiction, but because it is close to the center of Nancheng District, it is much more prosperous, with few narrow and congested alleys, and more open streets and alleys.
Because the population is larger and more prosperous, the Wutongli City Guard Division is also larger than Jiutiaoli, of which there are more than 300 people in the third shift, which are led by seven chasers, both in number and other aspects.
Nevertheless.
But the errand in Wutong is far less powerful than Min Baoyi in Jiujo.
On the one hand, there are many forces in Wutongli, there are as many as six or seven gangs comparable to the Chijin Gang, and there are many powerful forces in the local area, which are closer to the center of Nancheng District, and many times they have to be controlled by the General Department of Urban Health.
Unlike Jiutiao, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and there are few powerful gangs, Min Baoyi is almost the general emperor of the soil there, saying that even the Chijin Gang does not dare to confront him on the surface, so Chen Mu served as the leader in Jiutiao, except for the fierce ambush, he hardly encountered any other trouble.
Wutong Lane City Guard.
The entire city guard division is much more spacious than that side of Jiujoli, among which the most central is a small two-story building, which seems to have been newly built in recent years, and some other buildings do not show any traces of dilapidation, and they are all cleaned up.
When Chen Mu took Liu Song and the others into the City Health Division, the seven messengers had already led three classes of messengers to wait on the open field in front of the central small building.
"Wutongli City Guard, three classes of errands, a total of three hundred and sixty-one people, all of them are here, see Lord Errand."
Seven leaders and more than 300 people bowed down together.
The scene is still a bit spectacular.
Chen Mu stood in front of a group of errand servants, looking down on the past, and a trace of sigh rose in his heart, he came to this world for more than two years and did nothing, but once the opportunity came, he was immediately seized by him, in just over a year of effort, he went from a low-level errand officer to the position of commanding hundreds of people.
Maybe in the Wutong outside, his orders can't pass unhindered like Min Baoyi in Jiutiao, and no one dares to disobey them, but in this city guard, all the errands are decided by him.
"Get up."
After Chen Mu looked around, he spoke lightly.
Now that he is an errand officer, he no longer needs to be courteous to the other errands as he used to be, but must erect the majesty that belongs to the errands, and his will will will not be disobeyed, even if he is almost significantly younger than the seven errands.
"Yes."
All the messengers responded in unison, and only then did they each stand up and carefully look at Chen Mu, the new messenger.
The first reaction is to be young.
Too young!
The matter of Chen Mu going to Wutong to serve as an errand is a matter of the bright face for Min Baoyi, Xiaohe and even He Mingxuan and others, but it is not so easy to inquire about the ordinary errand servants or even the errand below.
Even today, it was unclear who would replace Xu Bonglai as the messenger.
"Why are you so young......"
"I guess it's from the inner city, I guess the origin is extraordinary."
"Hehe, I don't know, this errand master really didn't come down from the inner city, but I know a little, he is a person from the other side of the nine strips, and he was the errand over there before, and he rose all the way, and it is said that he has won the favor of the chief errand."
"Really?"
Some of the servants who were farther away whispered in very small voices.
Looking at Chen Mu's eyes, there was surprise, envy, and jealousy, and he sighed in his heart that this world is like this, if he can get the favor of big people, he will ascend to the sky in one step, and he can be promoted to be a messenger at such a young age.
However, compared to the errands in the back, the first few errands treated Chen Mu respectfully, they were still different, the level was higher, and a few of them had participated in the crusade of the Black Crow Sect with Xu Feng before, and they knew more or less about Chen Mu, knowing that Chen Mu was not just valued by Xu Hongyu.
"Is Xu Chaji gone?"
Chen Mu looked at the nearest messenger and asked him.
According to common sense, he came to Wutongli to take over as the errand, and Xu Feng, the former errand, was going to hand over to him, but Xu Feng was not promoted this time, but chose to retreat because of his ill health, which is still a little different.
"Lord Yuchasi, Lord Xu said that he was not feeling well, so he won't stay here to cause trouble for you."
Shang Qinglai saluted and responded respectfully.
After hearing this, Chen Mu's expression did not change, and he said: "The three classes of people are disbanded on the spot, and they will act as usual according to the previous practice, and the seven of you will go to the hall with me to report on the situation in Wutong." ”
Xu Feng's health is true, but it is not enough to leave before he comes, it is estimated that he doesn't want to see him, he doesn't care about it, he is also Xu Hongyu's subordinate, the Yu family's subordinate, will not make any stumbling blocks for him, maybe he is just reluctant to meet with him, the new messenger who replaced him, in the City Health Division as the former messenger who retired from old age and illness.
Chen Mu didn't care about this, after all, Xu Feng had already arranged it before he came, summoned three classes of people, and obviously explained to Shang Qinglai and the others, so he did everything he had to do, and his face was enough to get by.
Soon.
Many errand servants were disbanded and each did his own thing, and Shang Qinglai and other seven errand leaders, as well as Liu Song, Li Tie and others who came with Chen Mu, followed Chen Mu into the hall and went to the internal discussion.
In fact, Chen Mu had already learned about the situation in Wutong before, and said that he wanted to listen to the report of Shang Qinglai and others, and it was more about distinguishing the seven differences, and then he would assign these people to do things.
At present, it can be roughly seen that among the seven errands, it is headed by Shang Qinglai, this person is also the closest to Xu Feng, as far as Chen Mu knows, it seems to be Xu Feng's distant in-laws, but he is very measured in his work, and he is respectful to his new errand, and there is no arrogance in words and deeds, and he does not rely on his background to despise him as a young errand.
"The Crocodiles, the Quicksands, the Thieves...... The relationship between these seven gangs is complicated, there are conflicts, or there are alliances, and then there are the Nan family and the Zheng family, both of which have relatives working in the inner city, and they themselves are also powerful and powerful for several generations, and the power is huge, and there are dozens of martial artists employed by the family, and there are hundreds of house slaves......"
Shang Qinglai stood aside, introducing the many forces in Wutong.
Although many of them are already known to Chen Mu, compared with Xiaohe's introduction, what Shang Qinglai said is more detailed, specific to whose daughter made whose second room, which gang was involved in what business and joined forces with the other side.
However, Chen Mu was not very interested in this, to put it bluntly, he came to Wutong to serve as an errand officer, just to occupy a position, and did not plan to do too many practical things, more still based on his own martial arts practice.
As a matter of fact.
With his current strength, even though the two powerful forces of the seven gangs are powerful, and none of them is inferior to the City Guard, he is fully qualified to say 'I finish speaking, who is in favor and who is against'.
When personal strength reaches the level of easy tendon, it is a completely different field.
However, just as Chen Mu was listening to the report and thinking about it, suddenly there was a noisy sound outside, and the number of people seemed to be quite large, so that it all reached the hall.
Shang Qinglai, who was reporting, paused in his tone and glanced outside.
"My lord, I'll take a look."
The other poor man next to him reacted quickly, saluted Chen Mu, and then quickly walked out.
But after only a moment, he re-entered the hall, and his face seemed to be a little unpleasant: "Lord Chasi, it's someone from the Zheng family, and some people from the quicksand gang, it seems that there are also people in the thief gang." ”
As soon as this statement came out.
Many other poor people looked at each other.
Today is the day when Chen Mu, the new messenger, took office, and the Zheng family and the quicksand gang appeared together so coincidentally, and there were also people from the thief gang, no matter how you thought about it, it was impossible to come to pick up the dust for Chen Mu.
"It seems that I still have some fame, and as soon as I came, I was able to cause such a big movement."
"Let's go."
Chen Mu looked calm, slowly stood up, and walked out.
After Shang Qinglai and the others looked at each other for a while, they hurriedly followed and walked out of the hall together.
