After more than ten days, the official appointment documents of the Lushan City Inspectorate came down, Bi Sier changed from acting captain to captain, and Shang Shulang was unexpectedly appointed as vice captain.

In the Empire, a person's promotion depends largely on whether or not you are in the "circle", which controls the main power and controls the ascending path. You need to be close to them, align with their positions and views, have interrelated interests, and preferably have a blood relationship, which is necessary to be recognized and promoted.

In addition to his position and diligence, more importantly, he found the "big tree" to rely on, and became the spokesperson for the interests of the big tree in Black Pine Town.

With this relationship, Bisher's heart is very high, and his eyes are not limited to the small town of Black Pines, he will continue to climb upwards, if possible, all the way up.

And Shang Shulang relies on the ability to solve the case, after all, the deputy captain needs a person with professional ability, if the management of the patrol team is all about relationships and can't do things, how can it continue to operate?

"Hello Captain Qiao Qianshan!" Seeing him enter the patrol team, everyone greeted him respectfully.

Shang Shulang is even a little unaccustomed to it. Other departments were somewhat surprised that a newcomer had become the deputy patrol leader. However, the people of the patrol team are very calm, Qiao Qianshan's merits and abilities are obvious to all, and he has shown excellent intelligence acquisition and analysis skills on several occasions, which is not possessed by ordinary patrols.

"Don't worry, Joe moves the mountain. When I first became the vice-captain, I was also questioned, and everyone will gradually get used to it, and later, no one cares about it!"

Shang Shulang suddenly discovered that Bi Sier also had an advantage, he could always consider problems from the perspective of others, could this be the main factor in his success?

"Qiao Qianshan, you see, we have just taken office, we need to do something, otherwise the above will not be satisfied. ”

As the so-called "three fires for new officials to take office", Bissell has been thinking about it all night, and he has not come up with any good ideas.

"Captain, I think we should start with anti-corruption, this is our job, the inspectors will benefit, the people in the town will be peaceful, and the above will get political achievements, why not?"

Bi Sier smiled and pointed at Shang Shulang: "Haha! Okay! It's still your brain, I'll leave it to you, you must do it well!"

Ignited by Bisher, Shang Shulang added firewood to the first fire of corruption and dereliction of duty quickly ignited.

In less than a month, Shang Shulang cracked more than a dozen corruption cases in a row, arrested several officials, and distributed a lot of benefits to everyone. Bisher's prestige was quickly established, and who would refuse a leader who could bring them benefits?

However, Shang Shulang, who adhered to the purpose of Liwei, did not expect that a toss would force a leather shop in the town, Shanzhen Pavilion, to a dead end.

Behind the Mountain Treasure Pavilion is a greedy town government head catcher, and behind the head catcher is the former town mayor, the one who ran away after the chaos demon case. Shanzhen Pavilion has provided free ingredients and medicinal materials for many years for the head catcher and the mayor of the town, and the boss is a very kind-looking, very simple big man, who is twice as tall as Shang Shulang, even if he kneels down, he is taller than Shang Shulang.

"Lord Shang, if you have any orders, just say it!"

The two of them stood facing each other, and Shang Shulang needed to look up at the whole shopkeeper. The problem is that Shang Shulang is the one who should be arrogant, and the other party should grovel, but the current style of painting is diametrically opposite, which is very funny.

Lord Shang is very unhappy, why is he so tall? Wasting food and cloth is not economical, you know?

Learn that the rich are not short of money, and when they drink in the taste house, the old money will not stand up or straighten their waists, why, is it to take care of my emotions!

Between the thoughts, the two sides were silent for more than ten seconds, and it seemed that Shang Shulang was staring directly at the shopkeeper.

In fact, he was distracted, and he suddenly remembered that the materials needed for refining puppets and upgrading seemed to be missing a kind of undersea black iron, which should not be a difficult thing for pirates...

“... ... Captain Joe... My lord?"

"Hmm, ah, you're the owner of the Mountain Treasure Pavilion?"

"Yes, my lord, down there, it's called Quan Changsheng. ”

Shang Shulang nodded, turned around and nodded to Guo Xin behind him. Guo Xin took a step forward, his body standing upright, holding a document. Guo Xin has recently thrown himself into himself, and he follows him closely, he is not only a sycophant, but also has some ability, is very self-motivated, and is very useful.

Guo Xin's words were straight and round, and he began to read aloud in a deep voice.

"After investigation, Shanzhen Pavilion provided five years of free cherished ingredients and medicinal materials to the corrupt official Qin Zhutou, with a total value of 8,000 gold coins, suspected of bribery, monopolizing the medicinal materials market in Heisong Town, and suspected of colluding with officials and businessmen to seek improper benefits. Therefore, the shop was temporarily sealed, and the boss Quan Changsheng escorted the patrol team for interrogation, and the others were not allowed to go out and placed under residential surveillance... ... The Black Pine Town Patrol Team is the fourth day of the twelfth month of the imperial calendar. ”

There is no etiquette of kowtowing in this world, but a deep bow.

The authority of the government is sacrosanct, and even the suspects must be punished with respect.

The whole shopkeeper is meticulous in etiquette, bows extremely well, and has a very humble attitude, without panic, fierce protest or even hysteria.

Shang Shulang nodded secretly, this is a scheming master! He has to admire the other party's calm kung fu, good psychological quality, not panicked in case of trouble, capable and calm!

The question is, such talents, as well as the backstage, should make the business bigger than the money, how can it be just a shop manager?

"Treasurer, come with us!"

The shopkeeper smiled and instructed the five or six men and guards of the shop to take care of the store, and then followed Shang Shulang and the others away.

Shang Shulang stayed behind two or three patrols to paste seals, stationed in shops, to prevent the other party from secretly transferring property, this is the most important, and it is also the premise of the next action, the things are gone, the money is transferred away, how else... That point... What?

Nothing was said all the way, and when he entered the interrogation room, Shang Shulang sat at the top, with more than a dozen patrols on both sides, and there was a full shopkeeper standing below, the scene of the standard county government trial case.

Shang Shulang even looked up at the place where the plaque should have been hung, and there was no "Zhengda Guangming" plaque. This seems very unprofessional, go back to a craftsman, get a good piece, and hang it up.

"Shopkeeper Quan, why did you provide Qin Zhutou with those ingredients and medicinal materials?"

Naturally, someone next to him interrogated the whole shopkeeper, and Shang Shulang didn't need to interrogate him personally, just sat there and listened.

"Self-preservation. Qin Zhutou is in charge of public security, and if the shop wants to avoid blackmail and even robbery by gangsters and other forces, it naturally needs to have a protector. The whole shopkeeper bowed and said.

"So, you're giving the mayor five thousand gold coins a year to get protection?" the inquirer suddenly threw a small bomb.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The mayor is Qin Zhutou's superior, and we send annual offerings for Qin Zhutou, and in officialdom, it is also a practice for subordinates to honor their superiors." ”

The interrogator glanced at Shang Shulang, not knowing whether to continue. This shopkeeper is very honest, confesses to the bribery, and explains it clearly. Things seem to be very clear, the backstage of the Mountain Treasure Pavilion is Qin Zhutou, and the backstage of Qin Zhutou is the mayor of the town, and he contributes gold coins to the mayor every year through the full shopkeeper.

Shang Shulang felt that the case was boring, and nodded to the interrogator.

"Take them down, put them in the dungeon, and the punishment will be determined after the trial!"

When the shopkeeper was taken down, he had already put on a plywood, which was different from the ancient torture tools in this world, and it also had the effect of sealing all spells and supernatural powers.
