Episode 1 Martial Arts Master Chapter 52 The Truth About Official Culture
"Since your place will be classified as a management center, the security level will of course be raised to the highest level. Two hours of operation is still more than enough. The guards protect your store from infringement. Shouldn't you subsidize them? Hey, if you
If you refuse, the Sheriff has the right to send you to jail for obstructing public security management and disturbing public facilities." Shen Zhimo's big hat was pulled down, which was very scary.
The boss thought that even if all his belongings were attached, it wouldn't be enough for them to eat for half a month, so he begged: "Sir, the robbery just now was just an accident. It has never happened before. My place is very safe and there is no need for guards to be stationed. You have nothing to do with it."
Don't tell the Sheriff."
Shen Zhimo refused to let go of the blouse and said coldly: "My duty lies in saying no. For the safety of Elida City, I have decided to dedicate everything to myself. I have to say no."
The boss finally saw the guy's intention and cautiously said: "Sir, please wear this smock. You have subdued the robbers and made great contributions to city management. I thank you on behalf of the citizens."
"How is this possible? I am honest, law-abiding, and polite. I never accept gifts from citizens." As Shen Zhimo spoke, he took out a small bag, stuffed his blouse inside, and tucked it under his arm.
The boss breathed a sigh of relief: "Sir, do you think we should discuss the matter of guard stationing?"
Shen Zhimo walked straight into the counter, picked up two tight-fitting long-sleeved shirts and stuffed them into his bag. The waiters in the store didn't dare to speak. The boss's expression changed, and he finally followed behind and whispered: "This is a men's long-sleeved top.
It is specially tailored to fit the body, using soft wool, and the texture is very good, just suitable for your height. I usually buy it for thirty silver coins."
Shen Zhimo picked up a few more pairs of trousers and two pairs of pointed leather boots. The boss dared to be angry but did not dare to say anything. He put on the most sincere smile and said: "These are the best products from our store. If you like them, take them to the Sheriff... you
…”
"Since the public security environment here is good, and the occasional robber is just an accident, I will not ask him to station guards, so as not to waste precious manpower and material resources. Well, it is a bit far to go back to the palace from here. Oops, I forgot to bring money. This is terrible.
What should I do?”
The boss complained endlessly, so he could only pretend to be deaf and dumb, and said with a smile: "Then I will call a carriage for you, and I will pay the bill."
"How can this be done?" Shen Zhimo's expression was serious: "It is stipulated not to accept benefits from civilians. Are you deliberately bribing me?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, then you are still on your own..."
Shen Zhimo immediately interrupted him: "I've worked hard all day chasing the robbers, and you still want me to walk back? It's outrageous. Why don't you lend me a small amount of money, and I promise to pay you back tomorrow."
The boss screamed that he was in pain and reluctantly took out ten silver coins and handed them to him. Shen Zhimo had no intention of stopping. He counted them and sneered: "It's so little, why are you sending a beggar away?"
The boss had no choice but to take out ten more silver coins. Shen Zhimo immediately became angry, grabbed his collar and shouted: "Son of a bitch, do you plan to only open your shabby shop for two hours a day?"
It wasn't until the boss called the waiter to go to the back and take out a bag full of hundreds of silver coins that Shen Zhimo was slightly satisfied, put it into his pocket and said with a smile: "You are really a law-abiding citizen. I swear as a member of the Royal Guards,
I will definitely return the money to you."
The boss was about to cry, but thought to himself: "Isn't this the same as a tiger borrowing a pig? As a member of the Royal Guards, what does that mean?"
Shen Zhimo turned a corner, got into the crowded street, and left in a hurry. Simon had already taken off the black cloth and was waiting in front. Seeing him carrying big and small bags, he had gained a lot. He immediately smiled from ear to ear and said: "
Mr. Saga, you are the real king of blackmail."
Shen Zhimo picked up the money bag and waved it in front of him: "Let that guy go to the Royal Guards to cry. Also, please correct me. I am the king of the underworld, not a blackmailer. If my career expands in the future, I will also change careers.
.”
When Simon saw the bag of money, he admired Shen Zhimo so much that he raised his thumbs and praised: "Yes, yes, I'm beginning to think that this is a promising career. Shall we go back to celebrate next?"
"It is not advisable to be complacent after a small achievement. Doesn't the recruitment of urban police officers require more than five years of military management experience? Let's go to the Guards now to talk about falsifying my resume in the military."
"Sir, the people in the army are not as easy to fool as the household registration officers. They are very smart. I think we should wait and see the situation first. Maybe there are other ways."
Shen Zhimo's decision left no room for doubt. He waved his hand and said, "I asked Terry Hill, and she said Andre, the captain of the Guards Lion Cavalry, is a breakthrough point. We can start with him."
"However, even if you falsify your resume, the superiors will check it out, but the truth cannot be concealed."
"What do you know? Officialdom has always concealed things. For the sake of his own position, the captain naturally tried his best to cover up the past for me."
"What the officialdom conceals from others is such a brilliant description. Sir, are you really an uneducated Black Rain Jungle savage?"
"What are you talking about? Take off your clothes quickly."
The two of them put on new clothes obtained from the golden thread ball. The clothes were neat, elegant and elegant. They looked no different from upper-class citizens. Shen Zhimo imitated him and tucked his trouser legs into his leather boots and said, "Spirit Lion Cavalry."
Long Andre's hometown is in the middle reaches of the Isolda River, hundreds of kilometers away from Elida City, so he lives in a barracks, so we can go directly to him."
"Oh, do you really want to go?"
"Actually, I don't want to go, but when I think of so many people in dire straits, I can't control myself. Simon, do you understand, for the innocent smiles of children, for the joyful faces of girls, for the peace and beauty of the world?
We must go tomorrow."
Simon remained silent and muttered to himself: "I can speak better than the magicians in the Holy See. I almost thought I was a messenger sent by the God of Holy Light."
The barracks have always been an important military area and civilians are not allowed to approach, but today is not a festival and the management is very lax. Shen Zhimo only threw out a few silver coins and walked into the barracks unharmed.
This Guards barracks is built like a fortress, made of large boulders, more than thirty meters high. On the city wall, there is a lookout hole every few meters. Vibrant ivy is full of green and crawling all over the city wall.
On half of the wall, it was getting late, and yellow lights shone from several windows.
Entering from the gate, on the left is the cavalry dormitory, on the right is the infirmary, confession room, weapons warehouse, archives, and officer's office. Just ask any guard. Seeing that they were elegantly dressed and well-spoken, the guard thought they were relatives of a certain officer.
, and told the location honestly.
It happened that Andre didn't have to go to the palace on duty today and stayed in the office reading a vulgar knight novel. Shen Zhimo pushed the door open and saw the appearance described by Terry Hill. He made up his mind and said with a smile: "Dear Captain
Hello, sir. I am the Marshal who has sent you here specially. I have some confidential matters that I want to discuss with you."
