Liu Yuan woke up the jailer who had been knocked out and explained what had just happened.
When the jailer heard this, he felt a lingering fear.
He had almost died just now.
Under the grateful gaze of the jailer, Liu Yuan left the prison and returned to his room.
After a busy night, Liu Yuan was a little tired and fell asleep.
When he woke up, he was woken up by a series of hurried knocks on the door.
"Little Yuan, Little Yuan! Stop sleeping! Lou Zhixian wants to see you!"
The door creaked open.
Liu Yuan looked at the excited Constable Xing in front of him and was a little surprised.
"Constable Xing, what's wrong? Lou Zhixian wants to see me?"
Constable Xing sized up Liu Yuan and said with a smile,""That's right. Little Yuan, you're really capable. In one night, not only did you capture the male and female demons, but you also captured the remaining three ghosts of the West River Four Ghosts who came to break into the prison. That was a great merit. When Lou Zhixian found out about this, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.”
"I see. I was just lucky.”
"This kind of luck can only be taken care of with strength. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Quickly follow me. Don't let Lou Zhixian wait anxiously.”
"Alright."
The two of them soon arrived at the county government's residence.
The front of the county office was used for interrogation, and behind it was the inner residence, where the magistrate lived.
"Lord, Little Yuan is here."
Liu Yuan stepped into the hall and saw Lou Zhixian.
Lou Zhixian was an old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties. He was quite energetic.
Lou Zhixian's face was filled with smiles when he saw Liu Yuan.
"Constable Little Liu, well done! This time, this official has shown his face in front of those people.”
"Thank you for your praise, sir. I was just doing my job.”
Liu Yuan cupped his hands and said.
"Alright, I appreciate your attitude. This is the reward for capturing the Four Ghosts of West River and the Male and Female Fiends. It's a total of 300 taels. Keep up the good work in the future. I have high hopes for you.”
As Lou Zhixian spoke, he took out a banknote from his sleeve.
Three hundred taels!
Adding on the 50 taels he had previously, Liu Yuan now had a total of 350 taels.
This amount of money was enough to live in Qixia Town for the rest of his life.
And it was a rich life.
"Thank you, sir."
Liu Yuan received it happily.
It would be a waste not to take free money.
"Not only that, I have decided to give you a raise. In the future, you will receive three silver coins a month.”
Liu Yuan was slightly surprised.
Three taels of silver, this was the treatment of a constable.
It seemed that Lou Zhixian wanted to be promoted with Liu Yuan, but there was only one position for Arrester. Arrester Xing was an old man and had not made any mistakes. It was not reasonable for him to suddenly give up his position to Liu Yuan.
Therefore, Lou Zhixian chose a compromise.
However, Lou Zhixian could also see that Liu Yuan, who was able to capture the Twin Fiends and the Four Ghosts of West River by himself, was not an ordinary person.
He was afraid that the county government would not be able to keep him for too long.
Therefore, he was not worried that Liu Yuan and Arrester Xing would fall out. Previously, Lou Zhixian had even appeased Arrester Xing.
Otherwise, Constable Xing wouldn't be smiling at this moment. He would more or less mind.
As a county magistrate, Magistrate Lou had some means of employing people.
Liu Yuan naturally didn't know what Lou Zhixian was thinking. This wasn't something he could decide.
However, he naturally had to happily agree to a raise.
"Thank you, sir."
"Do well. I look forward to your future.”
Coming out of County Magistrate Lou's office, Liu Yuan said to Constable Xing,""Constable Xing, I wanted to treat you to a drink last time, but it was delayed because of the matter with Bonnie and Clyde. Since there was nothing urgent at the moment, why not get drunk at Tongfu Inn tonight?”
"That's good. Little Yuan, I'm really envious when I see that you're so capable. Unfortunately, I know what kind of material I am. It's impossible for me to be like you.
Little Yuan, Lou Zhixian told me that you're not an ordinary person and will definitely soar in the future. I think so too. I have high hopes for you."
Constable Xing laughed and patted Liu Yuan's shoulder. He was not jealous of Liu Yuan's great contribution. Instead, he was very pleased.
Liu Yuan smiled. This kind of working atmosphere was really pleasing.
At night.
Tongfu Inn.
"Yo, Constable Xing, Little Yuan, you're all here. What do you want to eat?"
When Bai Zhantang saw the two of them, he greeted them warmly.
"A pot of high-quality Nu 'er Hong and a few dishes that go with wine. Today, I'll treat Constable Xing to a drink.”
Liu Yuan said with a smile.
"Yo, Little Yuan, you're rich.”
Bai Zhantang teased.
"It's fine, it's fine. It's just a little money. Brother Bai, let's have a drink together when you're free. There shouldn't be many customers in the shop now.”
Bai Zhantang glanced at Manager Tong. Seeing that she had no objections, he said,""That's good."
Three men, a pot of wine, and a few dishes. The atmosphere was quite lively.
Drinking was a man's romance.
Constable Xing's alcohol tolerance was the worst, and he soon became a little drunk.
"Little Yuan, I really envy you for having such good skills. It's been so many years, it's hard for me to solve a case. Look at you. You've only been here for three months, and you've already caught a fugitive. Now, you've caught the Four Ghosts of West River and the Twin Demons of Male and Female. It's really infuriating to compare people.”
"Constable Xing, you are also a good constable. The reason why the security of Qixia Town is so good is all because of you.”
Liu Yuan said with a smile.
Constable Xing shook his head and said,""Not enough, far from enough."
