444: The thief wiped tears when he saw it

Everyone in the world said that Jianghu was very unhappy, but at this time Wu Zhongxian could not feel it at all.

Today is Wu Zhongxian's first day as the Jianghu Division. People say that a new official has three things to do when he takes office, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately stayed where he was...

He couldn't believe that the dilapidated yamen in front of him, which was leaky and rainy, with the door panels crooked on both sides, could actually be the Jianghu Department!

"Mr. Secretary, if you had told me to come in person earlier, I would have sent a car to pick you up! You being able to come to the Jianghu Department in person really makes this place shine! Hehehehe!"

A middle-aged, fat man in black official uniform, with a round face full of smiles, rubbed his hands, and appeared in front of the Yamen.

Wu Zhongxian ignored the flattery of the middle-aged official and walked straight through the door. Haitang followed quietly behind him, frowning as he looked at the dilapidated courtyard.

"Sir, be careful of the threshold! Follow me to the inner court. I happen to have Jingshan white tea from the early spring of this year!" Seeing that Wu Zhongxian ignored him, the middle-aged official was not angry. Instead, he followed him more flatteringly.

"Who was in charge of this Jianghu Department before?" Wu Zhongxian asked with a frown.

He originally thought that the lintel of Jianghu Simen was already shabby, but who would have thought that the door outside was already pretty good!

Several low-rise houses are in dilapidated condition with missing tiles and leaky windows. The cracks in the stone walls of the surrounding courtyards are covered with weeds. They are as dilapidated as if a slight kick would destroy the house.

The courtyard is even worse. Regardless of whether the cultivation of a field in the middle of the courtyard is an eyesore, the big yellow dog tied at the door is already skin and bones.

Wu Zhongxian is not a corrupt official that I have never seen before, but this is the first time I have seen him even deducting dog food! His corruption has reached a new level!

Other imperial yamen were full of people coming and going every day, and it was a bustling scene. However, in the entire Jianghu Department, except for the middle-aged official next to Wu Zhongxian who came out to show his face, no other person could be found.

Only Dahuang, who was tied to the door bolt, glanced lazily at Wu Zhongxian and others, and then continued to lie on the ground basking in the sun, not even bothering to scream...

"Hehehehe... before you took over the Jianghu Division, hehehe, it was the villain who had been taking care of you." When the middle-aged official heard this question, his heart suddenly jumped wildly, and he couldn't help but laugh a few times, and his forehead oozed densely.

beads of sweat.

Anyone who is not blind can see how dilapidated this place is! Is this anything remotely related to a court government office?

If it weren't for the middle-aged officials wearing official Qin uniforms standing at the door to greet him, Wu Zhongxian would have thought he had walked into a beggar's gang.

Wu Zhongxian turned his head and looked at the middle-aged official with calm eyes. Then he reached out and patted the middle-aged official on the shoulder, and said sincerely: "Greetings must have a certain limit. How can you, brother, grab a sheep and go to it?"

Damn it, can't we take it step by step? We can't catch it all at once. Brother, do you think this is true?"

"Yes, yes...! Your Majesty, you taught me a lesson!" The middle-aged official had long been frightened by Wu Zhongxian's unconventional operation. He was stuttering even as he spoke.

The fat body is shaking...

"It's no big deal. You and I will be colleagues in the future. Of course we have to work hard and move forward. Oh, by the way, haven't you asked me your name yet?" Wu Zhongxian looked at the middle-aged man with a smile.

"Don't dare to take it! Don't dare to take it! My subordinate's name is Chen Pi, he was appointed as the 10th team leader of the Jianghu Department. I am idle and fat, but I don't dare to walk shoulder to shoulder with you, sir. I am willing to ride for you!" middle-aged man!

The officials hurriedly bowed and saluted!

Wu Zhongxian narrowed his eyes and looked at the tangerine peel in front of him. The subtext of what he said to tangerine peel was: I know you are picking up the imperial court's wool, but it doesn't matter.

After all, the sword of the previous dynasty will not kill the officials of the later dynasty. As long as you work hard with me and strive to become bigger and stronger, I can forget about the past. www.81zw.????m

On the contrary, Chen Pi's reply to Wu Zhongxian was very interesting. He first devalued his ability, and then said to Wu Zhongxian: Sir! It's not that I don't want to hang out with you, it's just that I don't have much ability. Just lead the Jianghu Division from the front.

That's enough!

Wu Zhongxian raised the corner of his mouth, this person is definitely not that simple!

"Eh? Brother Chen Pi, you see I've been here for so long, where are our other colleagues in the Jianghu Department?" Wu Zhongxian said lightly with a smile like the spring breeze on his face.

"Alas, my lord, you don't know something. Now, I am the only one left in the Jianghu Department's staff, Chen Pi." When Chen Pi said this, his face was full of bitterness.

Chen Pi then thought about it, isn't Mr. Wu also considered to be under the Jianghu Division? Isn't this just a sarcastic comment on Mr. Wu? He hurriedly added: "No, no, no! Including my lord... No, Chen Pi is not

It counts as a person, but it doesn’t count as a person.”

"The Jianghu Department says it's not a big deal, but as a department under the imperial court, why are there so few registered personnel?" Wu Zhongxian didn't care about those small things, and his mind was entirely on other places.

According to what the empress said in the court, the Jianghu Division was originally under the control of the Ministry of Punishment, and its authority included the entire Jianghu martial arts, large and small sects.

Just auditing the warriors from various places entering and leaving the capital every day would require many officials to organize and compile records, not to mention those officials who were sent to the local areas.

"Could it be that the Ministry of Punishment saw that I was seizing power and deliberately gave me small shoes? Just detain all the original members of the Jianghu Division in the Ministry of Punishment?" Wu Zhongxian was thinking in his mind.

"Is Jianghu Division always like this?" Wu Zhongxian's eyes were filled with coldness and his voice was deep.

Above the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were not hundreds but dozens of imperial relatives killed by Wu Zhongxian. Those civil and military officials who dared to take the initiative to trouble him were simply out of their mind!

"That's not necessarily true. Originally, the Jianghu Division had two chief and deputy divisions, and there were ten chiefs under the chief. Each chief was in charge of a deacon class to handle cases of different sizes." Chen Pi bowed and replied, he didn't dare.

Face to face with Wu Zhongxian!

His new boss, it was calm and sunny one second, but he would have thought that a storm would come the next second. Even a veteran official like him couldn't figure it out.

"In addition, the Jianghu Division is in charge of all the watchtowers and watchmen in the capital."

Wu Zhongxian put his hands behind his back and nodded, indicating that Chen Pi understood.

According to this, surveying the capital, preventing water leakage, etc. are all included in the scope of the Jianghu Department's powers.

This overlaps with the powers of the Ministry of Punishment. No wonder those people have to put on small shoes for themselves.

"Then can you explain to me why the Jianghu Si Yamen is so dilapidated? It's like a fucking thief, ah no, this damn thief has to wipe his eyes even when a thief comes!" Wu Zhongxian said in time,

His expression was as cold as ice, and his voice sounded like a roar.

Any normal boss would be furious if he saw his subordinate's office in such a dilapidated condition on the first day he took office!
