Not going to the Yamen on duty the next day, Huang Shaojie slept until three o’clock in the morning before getting up.

First, go to the Jinyiwei Yamen to sign in and receive one year’s internal strength reward, and then return to the mansion.

After dinner, I took Xiaohe out for a walk with the birdcage in hand, listened to music in the Goulan, watched a play in the opera garden, listened to books in the teahouse, and spent the whole day leisurely like a dandy.

But just like that, Huang Baiwan was still so happy that he told his wife that his precious son was now sensible.

You know, the former owner went out to spend every day, drank and gambled, and lost hundreds of taels of money every month.

Now Huang Shaojie just goes out to listen to music and watch plays. He is simply a good young man!

The next day.

When I came to Jinyiwei Yamen to sign in in the morning, I heard a system prompt in my mind.

[Sign in successfully and receive a one-year merit reward. 】

A burst of true energy was injected into Huang Shaojie’s body.

Arriving at the Nine Departments, colleagues also arrived one after another.

When all the colleagues saw Huang Shaojie, they all greeted him politely. Even Zhu Shi and the other two Xiaoqi were very enthusiastic when they saw Huang Shaojie.

Although Huang Shaojie is a captain who has only been in Jinyiwei for less than two months, he has made many achievements recently, catching Japanese spies and flower-picking robbers.

Now everyone knows that this dandy who was recruited through the back door is actually a master who hides his secrets.

Needless to say, such a person will have a bright future in Jinyiwei in the future.

“Shaojie, I never imagined that your martial arts are so good. Yesterday, even the Commander-in-Chief praised you for not being inferior to her in martial arts!”

Zhu Shi came to Huang Shaojie and praised with a smile on his face.

Huang Shaojie politely handed over his hand and said: “Thank you, Mr. Zhu. In fact, the main credit for catching this flower-picking thief is Mr. Xiao Qi.”

Just as she was talking, Xiao Qiuyue walked in. When she heard Huang Shaojie’s words, she couldn’t help but smile.

This Huang Shaojie is not only unpredictable in martial arts, but also humble and low-key. He is truly an extremely rare talent.

“See Mr. Xiao.”

When everyone saw Xiao Qiuyue coming in, they stopped talking and all bowed their hands to her.

After clicking the button and roughly arranging today’s tasks, Xiao Qiuyue looked at Huang Shaojie and said:

“Huang Shaojie, come with me to the lobby. Niu Qianhu wants to see you.”

“yes.”

Huang Shaojie cupped his hands and responded.

“Shaojie, Master Qianhu will probably reward you.”

Zhu Shi smiled and whispered to Huang Shaojie.

It must be a good thing that the dignified Lord Qianhu wants to meet a junior captain.

Under the envious eyes of all his colleagues, Huang Shaojie followed Xiao Qiuyue to the lobby.

In the lobby, Niu Ren was sitting on the imperial chair at the top, drinking tea.

Huang Shaojie stepped forward, bowed and said, “Jinyi Guards School Captain Huang Shaojie comes to see Mr. Qianhu.”

“No gift.”

Niu Ren put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at the newly recruited junior captain. He looked quite talented.

“Huang Shaojie, I heard Mr. Xiao say that you were mainly responsible for catching the flower-picking thief?”

Huang Shaojie cupped his hands and said, “That’s Mr. Xiao’s love. Without Mr. Xiao’s command, how would my subordinates have been able to catch this flower-picking thief?”

Niu Ren smiled slightly: “You are very humble. Mr. Xiao said that your martial arts skills are higher than hers. She fully recommended you to me. Yesterday, I had someone send a letter to the capital to recommend you to the commander. For Xiaoqi, I estimate that the official appointment document will come out in at least half a month.”

Although Jinyiwei Xiaoqi is only a seventh-rank official, he is still an official of the imperial court and must appoint documents.

The difference is that the Jinyiwei is directly under the command of the emperor, so appointments and promotions do not need to be approved by the cabinet, but are directly issued by the Jinyiwei commander.

In fact, it is just a formality.

Niu Ren is in charge of Suzhou Jinyiwei. He has the right to promote or demote any position below the 100th Suzhou Jinyiwei. The commander of Jinyiwei generally will not intervene unless there are special circumstances.

Niu Ren has already sent documents to the capital, so Huang Shaojie’s little flag is basically a sure thing.

“Thank you Niu Qianhu for your support!”

Huang Shaojie was secretly happy and bowed his head again to Niu Ren who was sitting at the top.

Niu Ren picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then said: “Last time you caught a Japanese pirate spy, this time you caught a flower-picking thief. I will reward you with three hundred taels of silver tattoo according to your merit.”

After saying that, he waved and a guard came over with a small wooden box and handed it to Huang Shaojie.

“Thank you, Master Qianhu!”

Huang Shaojie thanked him first, and then took the small wooden box containing 300 taels of silver.

Niu Ren said to Xiao Qiuyue again: “Mr. Xiao Qi, this time your Ninth Institute has solved a series of flower-picking robberies, which can be regarded as a big contribution. I will reward you one hundred taels of silver, and everyone in the Ninth Institute one hundred taels of silver.” ”

Yesterday, I handed over the flower picker to the Ministry of Punishment.

Magistrate Liu sent another one hundred taels of gold to thank him, bringing the total to three hundred taels of gold.

Three hundred taels of gold is equivalent to three thousand taels of silver. Niu Qianhu kept one thousand taels of silver for himself, 500 taels of silver were used as rewards, and the remaining 1,500 taels of silver were put into the government warehouse.

“Thank you, sir.”

Xiao Qiuyue took another brocade box containing two hundred taels of silver handed over by the guard.

At the end of the afternoon, Xiao Qiuyue gathered everyone and distributed the silver rewards.

Each of the three small flags received five taels of silver, and each of the fifty captains received one tael more. All the captains were beaming with joy.

Their monthly salary is only three or four taels of silver. After staying on guard for a few nights, they can get more than one tael of silver, which is pretty good.

“Tonight at Zuixian Tower, I’ll treat you to a treat!”

Huang Shaojie patted his chest boldly and said to his colleagues.

He received a reward of three hundred taels of silver, and he was about to raise his flag, so he felt very happy.

Although his father, Huang Wanwan, gave him at least one hundred taels of silver as pocket money every month, he still felt a sense of accomplishment when he earned it through his own abilities.

“Master Huang is treating us to a treat, so we’re going to have a good drink tonight.”

“Brother Huang is so generous. With so many people going to Zuixianlou for a meal, it will probably cost more than ten taels of silver!”

“He is the son of Huang Wanwan. He has a huge family fortune. He still cares about a mere ten taels of silver. What’s more, Mr. Huang received a reward of three hundred taels of silver from a thousand households today.”

“I heard that Mr. Qianhu is going to promote Mr. Huang as Xiaoqi. We will call Mr. Huang Huang Xiaoqi from now on.”

“Hey, then we have to have a good drink tonight and wish Young Master Huang a good promotion in advance!”

“Master Huang, why don’t you take us to Goulan to listen to music tonight? I heard that Mr. Huang was a frequent visitor to Goulan before…”

Everyone was laughing and hooting.

Huang Shaojie smiled at the man and scolded: “What’s wrong with Goulan? I never go to a place like that. Besides, do you want Mr. Xiao to go to Goulan with us?”

After saying that, Huang Shaojie looked at Xiao Qiuyue, cupped his hands and said: “General Xiao Qi, are you willing to go to Zuixian Tower with your subordinates tonight?”

Xiao Qiuyue put her hands behind her hands and smiled slightly: “Master Huang is treating us to a treat, and if I don’t eat it, I won’t get it for free!”
