Chapter 107: Addendum to the Rookie Score
Over there, Fatty An Sifang arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion to ask for an audience, and sure enough, he was quickly received by a pretty young girl and introduced into the inner hall, confirming the conjecture – Xue Mu had sent Zhuo Qingqing out just so that they would recognize him and intentionally let them come to him.
Seeing Xue Mu sitting on the main seat leisurely sipping tea, Zhuo Qingqing stood behind him, as if protecting. An Sifang stepped forward and performed a subordinate salute, “Subordinate An Sifang has met the upper peak.”
Xue Mu was the Lord of a city, An Quartet was the Chief Arrestor of a county, similar to the relationship between the Mayor of the urban area and the Director of the city’s Public Security Bureau, at this level the two were on equal footing. The problem was that the gold medal in Xue Mu’s pocket represented the provincial department, solidly becoming An Sifang’s superior peak.
Xue Mu from the seat and up, personally help An Sifang sit on the chair, laughed: “from the family where there is what is not the peak of the peak, Xue so and so in the capital, did not listen to the Xuan Hou mentioned An Chief arrest.”
In fact, he hadn’t heard of it at all, but combining the information from Shadow Wing and what he had seen today, it was easy to guess that An Sifang was a member of Xuan Zhe’s lineage, a direct lineage that split from the Natural Sect along with Xuan Zhe.
Although An Quartet is bound to have gotten Ji Qingyuan’s secret secret orders, it is impossible to really listen to their own, but the most basic instructions are still able to follow on the surface, another perspective, An Quartet listen to Xuanzhe’s is also better than listening to the emperor’s, and there are still a few points of room for maneuvering …… here.
“Marquis Weisu said that Lord Xue City is someone he respects, and told his subordinates to ask Lord Xue City for more advice.” An Sifang took the tea handed by Xue Mu’s personal guard sister, the Star Moon Sect disciple’s beautiful color made his eyes couldn’t help but light up, and then quickly covered it up: “A few days ago, my subordinate came to pay homage to the city lord, and there was a pretty little girl who said that the city lord had come from afar, and that her body wasn’t feeling well, and that she didn’t see any outside guests ……”
The more said the more is a few points of envy look, this Xue Mu even closed the door to refuse guests and this tea delivery, are used in the Star and Moon Sect Demon Girl little girl, beautiful and fresh not to mention, cultivation is not low.
The Zhuo Qingqing who is now standing behind him and staring at him vigilantly is even better, used to be a super devil sect’s helm master, the cultivation is about the peak of the returning spirit in the realm of the haunting soul, and the difference between a line is the top of the rivers and lakes, the transformation of the hidden. This kind of expert is not a cabbage, put on the jianghu is also a dominant gang leader level characters. This kind of character actually do a personal guard, personal service, this is Ji Wu Yu kind of big chance to do the prince’s prince are not such treatment, after all, the master has its own arrogance, it is difficult to easily give the powerful and noble call to drink to.
Even if you pay a lot of money to hire this kind of guards, most of them are also a crooked man. People Zhuo Qingqing is less than thirty years old young woman, mature and enchanting, and more contact with the management of the green house for many years, between the eyebrows inadvertently is the charm is provocative.
Other than that, this Xue Mu’s luck is really enough to make anyone envious.
Xue Mu looked at this fat man’s expression and guessed what he was thinking, and secretly said that this was also a strong man who had been corrupted by a comfortable life, and there were a few sighs in his heart. He didn’t see any guests a few days ago, naturally he was studying the situation in Spirit State so as not to take any chances. Now that he had about a bottom, he smiled and said, ”Mister Xue’s cultivation is so low that he has traveled and contracted illnesses, making Chief Constable An laugh. I don’t know what I was looking for Xue previously?”
An Sifang withdrew his eyes from sizing up the beauty, fished out two wooden plates from his pocket, handed them to Xue Mu, and smiled, “This is what Chief Constable Xiahou commanded …… The Jianghu Xinxiu Genealogy was released in less than ten days, and has already been reprinted more than thirty times, with nearly a million copies printed, and for the first time, the proceeds of the capital as well as neighboring territories are summed up, and this is the Star and Moon Sect’s 20% share of the dividends.”
Xue Mu froze, why is this Xiahou Di doing things in such a hurry? Who has less than ten days on the dividend ah, not to say by the year, you at least let the country after the wind, the first month of the total revenue and then divided ah …… He thought about it, and suddenly understood: “Xiahou Di this is again something to ask me, right? First give some sweet taste?”
An Sifang laughed: “I really can’t hide it from the city master. Chief Constable Xiahou means when to do the second installment of the Jianghu New Talent Spectrum and ask City Lord’s opinion, this is one of them.”
“The second installment is a bit early, asking for my opinion that means waiting until next month. What else?”
“Secondly, ‘The Absolute Color Score of Jiangshan’ has also been released, and the response has been even more enthusiastic than the Rookie Score. Xiahou Chief Constable is considering the future, she said that the rookie can be good and bad, but the beauty can not be crooked, the further back the more difficult to choose. In fact, the chief constable has already begun to screen the next installment of candidates, saying that the candidates are diverse, and it’s hard to convince the public who to choose, I don’t know what Xue City Lord has to suggest ……”
Xue Mu more and more appreciate Xiahou Di, really heart in the work of people: “In my opinion, absolute color spectrum does not need to be made into a long-term periodicals, after the release of a few issues, you can declare that the world’s beauties are all in it, together with the release of a total list can be, then maybe you can also engage in a ranking gimmick to play with the top ten beauties and so on.”
An Sifang obviously didn’t have much research on these, so he laughed and said, “My subordinate has taken note of it.”
“Is there any more?”
“Thirdly, Chief Arrestor Xiahou asked how to add to the first installment of the rookie deeds after they were released and these people have done new great things. For example, Feng Lieyang just burned Xuan Tian Sect, this matter is not included in the rookie genealogy always feel that something is missing, is it added when reprinting?”
Xue Mu pondered for a moment, shook his head, “Not good, the difference in the content of each edition, will lead to the next issue no one valued the first edition, the backlog waiting for the reprint …… and there are always new things, how to add the end?”
“What about a separate supplement? Or do you do some additions to the previous issue in the next issue?”
Xue Mu laughed: “Xiahou Di has given a lot of thought, huh? To actually be able to consider supplements and addendums, it really surprises me.”
An Quartet laughed, “Chief Constable Xiahou has been exhaustive and dedicated to Department Six, this is something that all of us have seen and are convinced.”
Such an evolution is indeed Xue Mu earlier did not think of, so that a thing in different soil and water will have a different development, need to gradually improve with the actual operation of the process of the problems found in the course of the gradual improvement, he has modern insights can not be all the evolution of this world is expected to be complete. On the contrary, Xiahou Di was able to cite one to think of so many things, so that he was very impressed.
He is not unheard of acidic words, what rookie spectrum creativity is just so, even if the Star Moon Sect has a little bit of this kind of voice, but Xue Mu can be sure, really encountered changes to let these people to come up with ideas, but most of the jaws, far less than Xiahou Di really heart in the thinking. In the long run, perhaps she really doesn’t need to teach herself, and may be able to do better than herself.
Xue Mu carefully thought for a long time before saying: ”The next issue to do addendums to previous issues, better than addendums. It’s not good to have too many publications that are too chaotic, and the next issue’s addendums, on the contrary, have a sense of tracking time-sensitive news, and are more likely to form a sticking point, allowing the people to chase after each issue. This matter can form a convention.”
An Sifang noted it down by heart and smiled, “Then my subordinate will reply to the Chief Constable in this manner. Please also accept these dividends, City Lord.”
Only then did Xue Mu pick up the item, but it was two small wooden plaques, which were made of special wood that would not be easily damaged, and the workmanship was exquisite, with the words “Great Zhou Silver Bank” engraved on the front, and “Thousand Taels of Gold” and “Five Hundred Taels of Gold” on the back. “Such a mark, that is to say, the capital and the surrounding areas of the ten days of the 20% dividend, up to 1,500 taels of gold, faster than robbery, no wonder Xiahou Di so quickly want to do the second phase, it is really the proceeds make her ecstatic.
But Xue Mu doesn’t care about the amount at the moment, what he cares about is the sign itself. This is the withdrawal voucher, which is the large silver check of this world …… Xue Mu repeatedly flipped over and over and fell into a deep thought.
There should be a means of preventing counterfeiting, just can’t see where it is for a moment. The key is that there is no identity marking, anyone can withdraw money with the card. In addition limited to specific silver banks in the capital, can not be used offsite …… This is the extremely initial form of the bank.
Seeing that Xue Mu actually pondered on the card for a long time, An Quartet puzzled, or opened a new topic, “City Lord has an old relationship with the Mighty Tiger Sect?”
Xue Mu woke up and casually replied, “That’s not true, but Marquis Xuan’s face can’t be left unprotected.”
An Sifang was stunned and narrowed his eyes, “Then the Yan Yang Sect ……”
An Quartet’s heart stirred.
Almost everyone was guessing how Xue Mu’s first fire would be burned when he took office, but no one had ever thought that he was actually planning to stab at the Yan Yang Sect? Since the Yan Yang Sect had been beaten by Xue Qingqiu, at least it was still a family with the Star Moon Sect, and to this day, the disciples of both sides still use the name of brother and sister, so this fire was a bit weird, and Xue Mu must have had other true intentions.
He was not in a position to ask more questions, anyway, the ball of “notarization” has been kicked to the city lord, Xiahou Di entrusted the matter is also finished, he has nothing to do, so he got up and smiled and said: “Recently, there is a case of livestock disappearance in Lingshuang County, and the local community can not find any solution, and reported it to the county. My subordinate’s duties call for it, so I won’t disturb City Lord’s rest.”
Xue Mu didn’t care, he was only in charge of one city in Lingguang County, the counties under his jurisdiction were not his business, so he served tea and said, “If Chief Constable An has something to do, feel free to go and get busy.”
After seeing An Sifang leave, Zhuo Qingqing lowered her head and attached her ear and said, “Do you really want to deal with the Yan Yang Sect?”
Xue Mu mused and muttered, “Yes and no. …… Unfortunately, my knowledge is insufficient, and my knowledge of financial currencies is really too shallow, and I actually have no idea …… I hope that this Pu Xiang can bring me some enlightenment. “
