The position of "Experience" has an official rank of eighth rank. He is mainly responsible for the exchange of official documents and assisting the governor in handling affairs related to monsters and monsters in a county.
To put it simply, Gu Xu will become Chen Jisheng’s right-hand assistant and personal secretary in the future.
Maybe there is a successor.
Gu Xu is now only a first-level practitioner, and he is only seventeen years old, with very little qualifications.
His experience in appointing him as the Yishui Exorcist Department is definitely an exceptional promotion.
Even Chu Fengge was vaguely jealous of him.
Because such an exceptional promotion symbolizes the Lord Chief Secretary's favor for him.
But Gu Xu still behaved calmly.
It was as if what was placed in front of him was not an appointment letter written by the Chief Executive, but an ordinary daily official document.
"Master Chu, I have a question." Gu Xu stood up from his seat and said politely to Chu Fengge.
"Say."
"I have seen in the archives that among the officials of the Yishui County Exorcism Department, there is only one seventh-grade governor, one eighth-grade inspector, and one eighth-grade inspector. One person is a top-grade Zhaomo, one is a ninth-grade police officer, and one is a ninth-grade jailer. They have no experience in this position."
Hearing Gu Xu's words, Chu Fengge frowned slightly.
He did not expect that Gu Xu would be so serious about such a trivial matter.
Does he think that... the appointment letter written by the chief executive himself will be fake?
But Chu Fengge still replied patiently: "In the Exorcism Department, 'preparation' is what the Chief Secretary said-" The adults believe that just doing a ninth-level job is a waste of your talents and talents. You should take on more important responsibilities. ”
Gu Xu nodded and agreed with his statement.
The reason why he asked this question was just out of habit and caution to prevent fraud and pitfalls.
p>
Then, he pondered for two seconds and asked a very important question to him: "After a job...how much is the salary? ”
Chu Fengge’s expression froze again.
In Chu Fengge’s view, normal young people should have been overjoyed long ago when they encountered a great good thing like an exceptional promotion. , I am so grateful to the Chief of Staff.
How could you dwell on something as unimportant as your salary?
“Forty-five taels of silver. "Chu Fengge said with a gloomy face.
Gu Xu thanked Chu Fengge sincerely and sat back on the chair.
When he was a small official, his monthly salary was two taels of silver. After one year, he received twenty-four taels of silver.
Now his annual income has almost doubled.
Wait. After a while, he might be able to pay someone to help him renovate his dilapidated courtyard.
As for Chu Fengge's cold attitude, Gu Xu also noticed it. /p>
Gu Xu can guess that thisMr. Chu is probably used to living a wealthy life without worries about food and clothing in the capital, and does not understand the importance of this salary to a poor grassroots official like himself.
It can be said that "a man who is full does not know that a man who is hungry is hungry."
However, just as Gu Xu was thinking about how to spend the new salary, Chu Fengge’s voice sounded again:
“What is written in this appointment letter is just Your temporary position?"
Temporary position?
What does it mean?
Gu Xu felt a little puzzled by this.
Is it possible that after some time, I will be promoted again?
"Gu Xu, you still have an identity now, and you are a reserve member of Daqi's 'Shenji Battalion'," Chu Fengge explained, "One year from now is the inspection period for you.
"If you perform well during this year's inspection period, at this time next year, you will go to Luojing City and officially become a member of the 'Shenji Camp', competing with the best young people in the country. Talented people work together. "
"'Shenji Camp'..." Gu Xu thought silently in his heart.
He read through the classics and naturally understood the meaning of this word.
Heavenly Movement Six Year, that is, seventeen years ago, the Daqi Dynasty established the "Shenji Camp" for the first time under the initiative of Lu Huan, the then chief minister of the cabinet, led by the Exorcist Department, and devoted all the efforts of the country. It is a special combat team to deal with ghosts.
The most talented young practitioners in the country, some from the exorcism department, some from major sects, and some who work alone. Loose cultivators were all caught up in the trap.
The saints personally gave them guidance on the treasures of heaven and earth, elixirs, and even the top martial arts and magic weapons in Daqi's secret treasury. , are all at their disposal.
They have obtained the best training resources in the country, and they also perform the most risky tasks in the country. Zhu Yan, killing the five powers... were all glorious achievements of the monks of the Shenji Camp.
At that time, all young people were proud to join the "Shenji Camp".
However, the glory of the "Shenji Camp" did not last long.
Two years later, during an operation to kill the ferocious beast Qiongqi, the "Shenji Camp" was unfortunately wiped out, leaving no one alive. He survived.
In the same year, Lu Huan, the chief minister of the cabinet who first proposed the creation of the "Shenji Camp", was also convicted of treason and was executed by the Nine Tribes. The Lu family in Qingzhou disappeared.
From that time on, the "Shenji Camp" became a taboo in the Daqi Dynasty.
Perhaps, as time went by, it became a taboo. It will eventually sink into the dust of history and be forgotten by the world.
But now, someone actually proposes to rebuild the "Shenji Camp"!
And this is to restart the "Shenji Camp"! "The plan has really begun to be implemented!
What is hidden behind this?
It is a new round of power for the big shots in the capital.Game? Or will the Daqi Dynasty face an unprecedented crisis?
Many speculations suddenly popped up in Gu Xu’s mind.
"Because the long night is coming."
As if aware of Gu Xu's confusion, Chu Fengge gave the answer calmly.
"Long Night"-this is a word that makes people shudder when it sounds.
Gu Xu knew that a long night was a long dark night.
In the wilderness, the long night falls once every few decades.
The "Long Night" often lasts for several months.
During this period, the sun never rises and darkness covers the earth.
The Yin Qi will be stronger than usual, and the ghosts will become more ferocious and terrifying than usual.
Every time the long night falls, many people and even monks will be killed or injured, resulting in the tragic death of countless families.
For the Daqi Dynasty, it is undoubtedly an extremely difficult test.
“Master Sishou used the magic of heaven to deduce that the next long night will come within three years,” Chu Fengge added, “Before that, we need to be fully prepared.
“The Shenji Battalion is the vanguard force when the long night falls. "
Gu Xu nodded again, expressing his acceptance.
After some thought, he understood that "Shenji Camp" was both a challenge and an opportunity for him.< /p>
Although joining the "Shenji Battalion" requires you to perform some dangerous tasks...
But he can also obtain the best training resources in the country.
For example, rare elixirs;
For example, guidance from saints;
For example, top martial arts;
For example, top-grade exercises.
Gu Xu. He was born as a commoner and had no background, so he was far behind the children of aristocratic families at the starting line... If he followed the normal development path, it would be difficult for him to obtain these resources throughout his life.
But by joining the "Shenji Camp", he would be able to do so. It means that everything is possible.
Breaking through the seventh realm before the age of thirty may no longer be a pipe dream.
It can be said that it is a high-risk and high-yield "magic machine". Camp" is the ladder for ordinary people to reach the sky.
So, in order to survive for a long time, Gu Xu is determined to get the official quota of "Shenji Camp".
