Chapter 48 Spiritual Ape

In Hongyan Tower.

Chen Ku was responsible for sending his sister home.

Before leaving, my sister was still complaining: "It's too expensive. You haven't started a family yet. You must not spend money randomly in the future. I know you want to take your sister to eat something good, but you can't be so extravagant."

Chen Ku smiled and agreed.

After sending my sister home, she saw that the two-story building was in a state of disrepair. She even exclaimed: "What happened to the Wu family? It's like demolishing a house..."

It wasn't until she heard that it was her husband who led someone to capture the robber who caused the damage, that my sister covered her mouth in surprise and excitement, grabbed Chen Ku and said, "Your brother-in-law has made a meritorious service!"

He had long heard his husband say that as long as he could catch Ni Kun, he would be able to return to his position as deputy chief with this merit.

She was moved to tears and looked at her younger brother, who now also entered the Medicine King Hall and became an apprentice.

"Our family seems to be getting better all of a sudden."

Chen Ku didn't say what she did when Li Yuan Cheng succeeded. It would inevitably frighten her. After all, if she knew that someone had been watching her for the past two days and wanted to attack her, she would definitely not be happy.

"Well, everything is getting better." Chen Ku comforted his sister and then said, "I have to go back to work."

His sister pulled him and said with tears: "I know you are busy, but I still hope you can come more often, and I will cook for you."

"Um."

Here, after returning to Yaowangtang, I went to the hospital to take a leave of absence.

He had been out for half a day, so he was absent from work.

Although Ke Yansheng liked Chen Ku, a talented apprentice, in the yard, with so many people watching, of course he couldn't be too partial, so he deliberately said with a cold face:

"There are no rules at all. Even if you really have something to do, you have to take leave in advance and be absent from work for no reason. Do you know that I want to record your evaluation?"

Evaluation... is similar to deduction of points, because apprentices do not get paid, but if you want to be promoted to disciple, the evaluation in the yard is extremely important.

Ke Yansheng's deep rebuke made all the apprentices and guys in the yard look over.

It's a bit like watching a show.

After all, as long as the person you are scolding is not yourself, it will be fun to watch, not to mention that he was the first in the last monthly exam.

Even though some of the guys didn't dare to show it on their faces, they were secretly happy.

"You are such an upright absentee. Even if you are a genius, you still have to be beaten back to your original form. An apprentice is not a disciple. You really think you are being treated like a disciple after being criticized a few times. You are so self-righteous."

Of course, Chen Ku couldn't allow problems to arise in his assessment, so he told the truth directly, saying: "Master Hui Ke, what happened today is really due to a special reason. It was only because the disciple provided a clue to the Yamen that the time to come back to work was delayed."

"Provide clues to the Yamen?"

Ke Yansheng raised his eyebrows:

"What's the meaning?"

Suddenly,

A shout came from outside the yard:

"Where is the pain in Yaowangtang? Come out quickly to receive the silver reward from the court."

All of a sudden, Tu Jie Yuan was slightly shaken.

What?

The court rewarded you with silver?

At this time, a guy from outside came in first and said to Ke Yansheng:

"Master Ke, three detectives came from the outer hall. They said that Senior Brother Chen provided important clues and helped the county government arrest the smuggling thief Ni Kun who was wanted by the county for three months. Therefore, we came to distribute the silver reward on the wanted order. ”

"The big thief Ni Kun?" Ke Yansheng's face was solemn.

The apprentices and guys in the yard were also surprised and moved, and they all looked at Chen Ku.

The arrest warrant for the big thief Ni Kun has been posted throughout the county for several months, and the reward has been rising again and again. It's not like no one has daydreamed about it, thinking that they can provide clues and get the huge reward. But I also knew that it was a dream.

What's more, who is the big thief Ni Kun?

I just heard two days ago that six more people were arrested in the Yamen. The next day's wanted order raised the reward to "800 taels of silver" for assisting in the arrest and "150 taels of silver for providing clues"...

Everyone can see that Ni Kun has challenged the county government's reputation again and again, and has repeatedly lost his official position. The county magistrate has become really angry.

The result was unexpected...

Chen Ku was actually able to get this advantage.

Everyone in the yard looked at Chen Ku with a wonderful expression.

Three official servants have already walked in.

"Who is Chen Ku?" one of the tall yamen servants asked.

Ke Yansheng coughed, pointed at Chen Ku, and said, "That's him."

"Come here and get the silver reward. The government keeps its word. Anyone who provides clues about Ni Kun will be rewarded with a silver reward of 150 taels. Come and stamp it here, and the silver will be yours." While the yamen servant was talking, another yamen servant came over. Holding a money bag and a paperwork.

Chen Ku walked over, and under the guidance of the yamen servant, stamped the reward document, and then accepted the heavy money bag.

After weighing it, he thought to himself: "It's actually not withheld, a solid one hundred and fifty taels?"

This was somewhat in conflict with his impression of these vampire cadres.

Seeing Chen Ku take the money and stamp it, the yamen official smiled at Chen Ku in a rare way and said: "In addition, your brother-in-law also asked me to bring a message. This time, thanks to you, he will be promoted back." "I hope you can go to his house when you have time and ask your sister to cook a meal for you."

"Thank you for the message, sir." Chen Ku handed over his hand, and he probably understood why the silver reward was not withheld.

Watch the Yamen leave.

Chen Ku secretly glanced at Ke Yansheng.

Ke Yansheng said unhappily: "Don't read your expression. Since you are assisting the government, there is nothing to say. Go back to work."

Chen Ku asked quietly: "What about the evaluation of the disciple?"

Ke Yansheng waved his sleeves and said: "Don't push your luck. You still expect the court to give you a "good" for this matter. You are assisting the government to arrest people, but you have not made any contribution to the court. Go back to work."

"Hey!"

Chen Ku laughed, then weighed the heavy bag of silver, and in the envious and jealous eyes of the other guys and apprentices, he went to his workshop and started to get busy.

He got another windfall, and he didn't even work hard. He just ran errands and talked a little, and he made up for the loss of buying the white ape in an instant, and there was a surplus.

How can it not be a good thing?

Maybe good things come in pairs.

Only five days later,

There was news from the white ape. The people from the hunters sent someone to pass on the message that the white ape had been hunted.

After Chen Ku finished work, he went straight to Baisuifang Lieshilin.

The same waiter from last time saw Chen Ku and said with a smile:

"The customer is so lucky. In five days, our Lieshilin archers have lived up to expectations and have hunted two apes, but..."

When Chen Ku heard the but at the end, he knew that things were not simple, so he frowned and asked, "But what?"

"I don't know whether it is the customer's blessing or something else. The ape was hunted, but it is not an ordinary white ape, but a pair of 'spiritual apes' mother and son, so the problem is here. If the customer does not want the spiritual ape, then there are still five days left. I, Lieshilin, guarantee that I will be able to deliver a white ape to the customer before the deadline, but if you want a spiritual ape... you have to..."

The waiter coughed lightly and said:

"Add money."
