Chapter 634
I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess
Zhang Yu took the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and placed it in front of him.
âHave you been promoted?â
âNo, I didn ât! He was still a golden sword guard, but he had a new position. He was also the General Manager of the Imperial prison, in charge of human resources, financial power, exemption, and so on. In other words, Iâm your head. â
âCongratulations, brother Xiao! Congratulations, brother Xiao! Now that youâre here, weâll be safe from now on. â Zhang Yu was excited.
âGo and get everyone.â Xiao ran ordered.
âYes.â Zhang Yu passed down the order.
Soon, all the jailers on duty arrived.
They stood in line in an orderly manner.
Xiao ran stood up from his chair and walked over, with Zhang Yu following behind him.
âLet me introduce myself. My name is Xiao ran, and Iâve been appointed by the Imperial court as the General Manager of the Imperial prison. From now on, Iâm your leader.â
âMy Lord!â Everyone bowed respectfully.
Those who knew Xiao ran were excited.
With Xiao ran around, the Imperial prison would be much safer. Even if there were any unexpected situations, they could be resolved.
......
âGet busy!â Xiao ran waved his hand.
The jailers left.
He looked at Zhang Yu.âLetâs go to the dormitory.â
âYes.â Zhang Yu replied.
They arrived at the dormitory.
It was a large courtyard, and it was used for logistics, supplies, dining hall, finance, and so on.
âGet everyone here.â Xiao ran ordered.
âYes.â âYes,â Zhang Yu replied and left quickly.
After a while.
The square was filled with people, and the one standing at the front was a young man. His skin was very dark, like a piece of charcoal.
âWhoâs in charge of this place?â Xiao ran said.
No one answered.
Zhang Yu was very familiar with the people here. After all, he was the Lieutenant of the Imperial prison. He was in charge of the daily affairs of the Imperial prison and had many dealings with the logistics department.
âThe person in charge of this place is called zhao jun. I heard that he is the distant nephew of vice Sword Master Fang.â
Xiao ran realized that he had gotten the news from vice-sword head Fang in advance and was looking for trouble.
âBesides zhao jun, who has the highest position?â
âYour Excellency, itâs me!â The dark-skinned young man walked out.
âIâm the assistant manager. â
Zhang Yu added,âhis name is Xia Fang. Heâs very capable and doesnât get along with zhao jun. Heâs always ostracized by him.â
âPoint out zhao Junâs men,â Xiao ran said.
âItâs my Lord!â Xia Fang did not hesitate at all. He followed Xiao ranâs orders and pointed out zhao Junâs men one by one.
The group of people stood together and looked at each other in confusion. They then looked at Xiao ran, not knowing what he was up to.
âYouâre fired. â Xiao ran said coldly.
âWhat right do you have to fire us? Have you asked manager zhao jun?â
âThis is logistics. You are a member of the divine sword guards. You canât control us.â
This group of people immediately exploded and jumped out to court death.
âGet lost!â Zhang Yu took a step forward, and a green light burst out, pressing down on them and knocking them to the ground one by one.
He said coldly.
âHeâs the General Manager of the Imperial prison. Heâs in charge of all matters in the Imperial prison. If he says heâs going to fire you, heâs going to fire you.â
He waved his hand.
âThrow them all out.â
Xia Fang hurriedly brought his men and chased them all away.
Looking at him, Xiao ran said again,âcan you manage the logistics well? To ensure the operation of the Imperial prison?â
âI can!â Xia Fang knelt on the ground in excitement.
Xiao ran glanced at him. First tier of Grandmaster boundary, his cultivation level was not too bad. He was able to manage the logistics.
If it wasnât good, he would retreat when the time came.
âGet busy!â Xiao ran waved his hand.
Xia Fang left with his men.
He returned to the hall on the first floor.
Not long after Xiao ran sat down, Xia Fang came with a thick stack of account books. He placed them on the table and said respectfully,âmy Lord, these are the account books of the Imperial prison for nearly a year. There are some mistakes in them, and I have already drawn them out. In total, there is a loss of nearly 500000 taels.â
Xiao ran took an account book and looked at it. He worked very hard and was very careful. It was indeed as he said.
Five hundred thousand taels of silver in the Imperial prison had been embezzled.
âPut these on the side and bring the rest back.â
âItâs my Lord!â Xia Fang said.
Tapping his index finger on the table, Xiao ran thought for a while and made up his mind.
âStarting from this month, everyone in the Imperial prison and the logistics department will have their salaries doubled. The same goes for the food, donât be stingy, thereâs enough fish. â Xiao ran ordered.
âIf the higher-ups know about this, Iâm afraid it will be disadvantageous to you.â Zhang Yu was worried.
âItâs fine!â Xiao ran shook his head.
âSince Iâm the General Manager, I have to do something, right? Moreover, working in the Imperial prison is a life-and-death struggle, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow. Itâs in line with the rules to have them pay more. â
âThank you, brother Xiao!â
âThank you, Your Excellency!â
Zhang Yu and the others quickly thanked him.
Xiao ran continued,âwhen interrogating criminals, especially demons, you have to be ruthless. Those who can be locked up are not simple people. You have to interrogate them to find out the treasures, silver, and house deeds they have hidden outside.â
âWhat if Iâm poor?â Zhang Yu asked.
âLet out the blood!â Xiao ran glared at him.
âEvery part of a yaomo is a treasure. Their blood is very valuable. As long as you donât kill them, and release a little of their blood every once in a while, you can sell it for a large amount of money. It will be divided according to your position. Isnât that good?â
He took the tea from Zhang Yu and took a sip.
âWhen Iâm done with the current Matters, Iâll make a trip to the spirit gods Department and discuss with them if we can form a partnership and purchase medicinal pills from them. In that case, the money Iâve plundered from demons and criminals can be exchanged for cultivation resources and increase your strength.â
âBrother Xiao is wise!â Zhang Yuâs eyes lit up as he flattered.
âFor those who have committed serious crimes and canât get out for the time being, and those with rich families, ask them to write a letter later and have someone deliver it to their family members. Ask their family members to pay the ânutrition feeâ. Before doing so, you must investigate their identities clearly. The more important their identity is and the richer their family is, the more ânutrition feeâ they will have to pay.â
He added.
âPay on a monthly basis. We donât do one-shot deals.â
âWerenât they all provided for free before?â Zhang Yu touched his head.
âThe past is the past, and the present is the present.â
âBut if we do that, those censors will be like dogs and accuse us.â
âIâm the chief of the Imperial prison, I have the final say here. â Xiao ran said.
âWhat if they donât pay up?â
Xiao ran glared at him, exasperated that he had failed to live up to his expectations. Xia Fang said,âif you donât pay, Iâll only give you two steamed buns a day and some water. Then, we âllâ interrogate âthem properly to see if they have any other accomplices hiding outside.â
âI understand.â Zhang Yu suddenly realized.
âXiao, get out here! Who gave you the courage to stop being my official?â Zhao Junâs angry roar came from outside.
