There are hundreds of thousands of households in Guangling City, with a population of nearly one million, and to maintain the security of such a big city, the city must be indispensable for catching people.

In addition to the total head catcher of a city, the following is roughly divided into soapy clothes and brocade clothes, soapy clothes are mostly street patrol errands, and the iron ruler and water fire stick in the hand will also deal with some chickens and dogs and thieves, there are thousands of people in the city, and there are a lot of people, but they are divided into the streets of various urban areas, and there are few people.

The head of the head of the Jinyi Catcher is directly led by the head of the city and the head of the urban area is the co-leader of the soapy head to deal with the affairs of the jurisdiction.

There are a lot of people in the city who carry knives and swords, and it is the number one thing to see them not to disturb the people, and it is naturally indispensable to follow him to deal with the people in the rivers and lakes.

Outside the yamen of Guangling City, eight people stood together in the costumes of the Zhendong Martial Arts Hall, their bodies were tall, standing like a pine, and the passers-by all looked sideways at them.

Zhendong Wuguan is strong in the city, and has a good reputation, and it often becomes the object of discussion among the common people before and after tea.

"Senior Brother Chi, what errand do you think the chief catcher will arrange for us?" one of the disciples asked.

"Listen to the orders, why don't you let us wear soapy clothes to patrol the streets. Chi Xiao replied, among the eight people, Chi Xiao has the oldest experience in the martial arts hall, and he is kind and kind, and his kung fu is not weak, so several other people regard him as the leader.

Yu Di has a very good relationship with Chi Xiao, during this time he has asked Chi Xiao for knife skills, the two often learn from each other, and they have drunk together a few times.

It didn't take long for a soap-clothed catcher to lead the eight people in, "Everyone is fine, the chief catcher is already waiting in the living room, please come with me." ”

A few people walked into the yamen, and before they entered the living room, they heard their voices when they didn't see them, "Haha, it's worthy of Brother Zhang's disciples, everyone is extraordinary, sit down inside." ”

Yu Di saw that the man was wearing a chief catcher official uniform, standing at the door to greet him, it should be the head catcher of Guangling City, Jiang Zhanfeng, what made Yu Di wonder was that a chief catcher deigned to go out to greet him, how could it be a bit of a weasel to give a New Year's greeting to the chicken.

The eight people did not hold the big support, and they all hugged their fists in return, not to mention Jiang Fufeng's official body, just his kung fu that did not lose to the pavilion's advocacy of taboo hair, and it was also worth hugging his fists to salute, and then several people reported their names and made a brief introduction.

In fact, Jiang Zhenfeng is really short of manpower in his hands, and he is worried that such a good talent will slip away, the last time he surrounded and suppressed the water bandit Jiaolong Gang, he killed a lot of direct subordinates in Jinyi and caught fast, because he was thinking of Corporal Lixian, so that the eight people would follow him without fear of life and death.

"The eight are the best selected by Brother Zhang, and I also regard you as nephews and nephews, if you have any requirements, I will do my best to meet them. Jiang Fufeng said magnificently.

Several people were overjoyed after hearing this, but they didn't expect this head catcher to be so polite and easy to speak, and he gave sweetness before he took office.

Yu Di is beating a drum in his heart, there is no free lunch in the world, and this Jiang Zhanfeng is a little too enthusiastic, but he is also the top boss in the future, if you want to speak, we should ask you to take care of it, there must be a demon when things go wrong, anyway, there is a signboard of the Zhendong Wuguan behind him, let's see what the situation is.

The eight people were embarrassed to ask for benefits directly, and the leading Chi Xiao answered: "The head catcher is polite, we haven't built an inch, how can we be rewarded, it's already very good to be able to get a job here." ”

"See you, since you follow me, you won't treat you badly, then that's it, you should still live in the martial arts hall, and I will arrange a house for you separately, and it will be convenient for you to live, what do you think?"

When Jiang Fufeng said this, Yu Di purred his eyes and thought, "I'll do it, I will allocate real estate before I work, is the civil servant here treated so well? ”

The eight people looked at each other, and finally looked at Chi Xiao, asking him to pay attention, Chi Xiao looked at the eyes of Shuangshuang's expectation, and knew what to say, and he was also satisfied.

"Thank you for catching the head, but we are disrespectful, and you can send anything in the future. ”

"Okay, people who practice martial arts should be so refreshing, we will arrange someone to take you to office later, and the house and other trivial matters will be as soon as possible, and it will be almost noon, let's talk while eating and talking. After saying that, the eight people were arrested by the yamen and quickly led down.

There is the general arrester, and the process of taking office is naturally smooth, and even the people who do not have the identity nameplate of the room are properly arranged, after all, there is the town Dongwuguan as a guarantee, and what about the origin of the brothel.

Received two sets of brocade clothes to catch fast public clothes, and the eight people were invited to a nearby restaurant to rub a meal, you came and went on the wine table, and drank very happily, among which Yu Yu drank the most, and also attracted Jiang Zhenfeng's praise, "I didn't expect that Brother Yu is the youngest, but the amount of alcohol is the best, he must be a good man." ”

At that time, Yu Di had a smile on his face, and he really complained in his heart, "Is it a good man who has slept with me The woman knows that you sugar-coated cannonball, sugar-coated I'm welcome, if there are really cannonballs flying, the master won't give you his life, after all, there is only one life." ”

The banquet dispersed, the eight people returned to the martial arts hall, and Yu Di came to the residence to spread out the brocade clothes and catch the public clothes to take a look, the material was good, it was very slippery to the touch, red and black, but this hat was not pleasing to the eye.

Of course, it's not that the hat looks ugly, it's that Yu Yu doesn't like to wear hats, he already has long hair, and if he wears a hat again, he doesn't have to go out on such a hot day and sweat on his head.

Yu touched the long hair tied up at the back of his head, thinking about whether to cut it shorter, people here don't pay much attention to hair, long hair has short hair, and even bald heads, and Yu Li has long hair because he wants to fly in the air in the future, and the long hair must look handsome. It's troublesome now, and you have to take care of it every day, otherwise you will have a rancid smell on your head when you get up the next day.

Untied the bundle of hair, the long hair of the shawl hung down, reached out and touched it, and after thinking about it, it was still reluctant, and it was a big deal not to wear a hat.

At this time, Yang Tie walked in sweating, and when he saw that he was looking at the public uniform in his hand, he also came over curiously, "This dress is really good, if I can wear this back to the village, my father will be happy to live for ten more years." ”

"I like it, I've got you covered. "Yu Di said this sincerely, just a set of clothes, how can it compare to the love with Yang Tie.

Yang Tie's eyes were full of envy, and he withdrew his hand from his clothes, "Forget it, you can't wear it out, put it in the cabinet and be moth-eaten, you can keep it for yourself." ”

Yu Di smiled and stuffed the clothes in his hand to Yang Tie, "If the worm is moth-eaten, it will be moth-eaten, and when you go back, I will wear it to your father and let him have fun." ”

Yang Tie smiled on his lips, and he didn't refuse anymore, he touched the clothes and folded them again, which was very cherished.

Thinking of Jiang Yanfeng's arrangement of the residence, Yu Di asked: "Heitie, the yamen arranged a residence for me, would you like to go out to live with me?"

"Forget it, you are on official business, you must spend less time at home on weekdays, and it is convenient to live here to practice, so you can take the time to come and see me more in the future." Yang Tie thought for a moment and said.

The two of them had to wait for Yang Tie to sleep when they lived in a room to practice, not because they deliberately wanted to hide it from him, but because they were worried that he was honest and not strict, and he knew the allusions of Pifu Huaiyu. There must be more than one room in the residence that I want to arrange, so I asked Yang Tie about his wishes.

The next day, the Yamen of Guangling City.

Yu Di was wearing a brocade robe, a goose knife on his waist, his long hair was tied behind his head, his sideburns hung down on his chest, his face was handsome, and his body was straight.

As the chief catcher, he is directly subordinate to the brocade clothes and catches fast, and there is no trivial official business to be busy, so he sits in the arranged pavilion to drink tea and read the newspaper, and listens to the order of the chief catcher.

The pavilion is not big, four sets of tables and chairs and a case shelf, the room is distributed here with Chi Xiao, and the other two tables and chairs have not yet sat down, so I think they haven't ordered the office yet.

"Eating imperial grain is corruption, the office is idle, and you can get oil and water with money, no wonder so many people want to squeeze in. Yu Di muttered silently, shook the newspaper in his hand, took a sip of the freshly brewed new tea, and saw what was new in the court and the rivers and lakes some time ago.

Guangling City is located in the eastern part of the Chu State and is also one of the largest cities in this territory.

Five hundred years ago, the state of Chu was established by force, and was strongly supported by all the major factions and wang clans on the rivers and lakes, and after the founding of the country, the national policy was established to share the territory with the rivers and lakes.

If there are villains who violate the ban with martial arts, sometimes there is no need for the court to take action, and there are chivalrous warriors who take it down in exchange for prestige, and this reputation is the spread of fame and deeds, so the newspaper distributed by the court will also have a description of the deeds of the rivers and lakes.

Of course, the imperial court will not be completely at ease with this Jianghu, and set up Qilinwei to deal with things on the rivers and lakes, calling it Qilinwei, because the founding king of Chu said: The people of Chu are my Qilin.

As a result, Qilinwei has to deal with disputes in the rivers and lakes, investigate the people who are in trouble in the rivers and lakes, and protect the people from invading.

Qilinwei deals with big things, and small things are handled by the catchers of each city.

When he sat in the space for almost an hour, a soap-clothed catcher came in, holding the arrow of the total head catcher, and said in his mouth: "Two adults, there is a house on Hechuan Street in Xicheng, and the family in it died unexpectedly. ”

"Just us?"

Yu Di and Chi Xiao glanced at each other, and the two of them were puzzled, they had just handled the case independently on the first day of taking office? They had no experience in handling cases to talk about, and they would take over the case when they could fight until they could take a handle, isn't this a duck to the shelf?

"Exactly. ”

"Where are the other brocade clothes in the yamen?" Yu Di stood up and asked.

This person's eyes began to wander, and he didn't know how to answer, and he couldn't say why he said this.

Yu Di saw his appearance, and combined with yesterday's general arrest of Jiang Zhanfeng's actions, he guessed that there must be an inside story, and if there is a situation, I don't know how he will die in the future, he took out a broken silver from his arms and put it on this person's hand, and patted him on the shoulder, "If you have something to say, I have a strict mouth, and I will go out of your mouth and into my ears." ”
