Please Do Not Disturb My Cultivation - Chapter 23

Chapter 23 Representatives

Huh?

There were actually two people?

Lin Wen was stunned for a moment before he was overjoyed.

What a profit! I originally only wanted to find one, but I’ve got two people. This small county actually had two experts at the same time. How could the world not be appeased?

Hahaha, this lousy spell has finally made me feel good!

Lin Wen immediately shouted, “Zhao Minggong!”

An old man with white hair bowed and replied, “I’m here.”

Lin Wen took a look. Wasn’t this Huai Town’s mayor? The one who had just shouted that Huai Town didn’t have a deputy mayor.

Activating Aura Observation, for the first time, Lin Wen saw the classic example of the imposing aura in textbooks.

Hidden Dragon in the Abyss.

The pure white aura carried a green luster. The aura was shaped like a disc at the bottom, like a dragon falling into an abyss. Clouds and mist rose above the aura, like a huge rock pressing down on the ceiling. The overall light was not obvious, but it did not dissipate.

Move away the boulder, and the dragon will soar to the nine heavens. Press down on the boulder, and the dragon dies.

There were a total of 9,400 descriptive words under this example. Lin Wen only remembered these few words. The general meaning was that this aura indicated a genius whose talent was not appreciated.

This luck was really unstoppable.

Could it be that my huge Opportunity attribute has taken effect now?

Lin Wen was overjoyed. Wasn’t this equivalent to raising his hand and getting an SSR card?

“Alright, you are now the vice county governor. When I am not in the county, you will take charge of my responsibilities.”

The appointment came too quickly, like a tornado.

The entire meeting room suddenly fell silent. Everyone stared blankly at the county governor and the white-haired Zhao Minggong. The quick-witted were already working at the speed of light. They were thinking about the deeper meaning behind their relationship and appointment. The slow-witted were still thinking about what was going on.

Zhao Minggong was the most surprised. He had been the mayor for 36 years and had long since given up.

Who would have thought that he would be promoted so old?

For a moment, he couldn’t speak. He couldn’t be sure if this was really just a joke from the county governor. In the past, the promotion of a deputy county governor would start a year before he was assigned to the position.

Now, was it a second or two?

Lin Wen said loudly, “All of your affairs will be handled by Vice County Governor Zhao Minggong!”

Everyone looked at each other.

Was this for real?

Was there such an appointment? Was this something that had been prepared beforehand, or was it just a spur of the moment idea? Was there some kind of trick?

After a while, someone said in a low voice, “The Vice County Governor’s appointment must be approved by the county council and submitted to the governor-general’s office for approval.”

Lin Wen didn’t want to repeat it anymore. “Fang Weiwei! Read the Commissioner’s Power to this fool a hundred times!”

It was only then that everyone remembered that this was an extremely rare, even unprecedented, owner of the Commissioner’s Power in the inland stable region.

He had the power!

He could even mobilize the Empire’s army! No wonder the garrison county governor, Fang Dashan, was so obedient!

This was for real!

Everyone instantly raised their heads and stared at County Head Lin with burning gazes.

Lin Wen shouted, “Qin Luoshuang!”

He shouted twice, but no one answered.

It seemed that she was not an official in the conference room.

Lin Wen shouted, “Do any of you know Qin Luoshuang?”

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

In the end, a staff member responsible for guarding the water dispenser whispered, “There’s a new female colleague called Qin Luoshuang.”

Lin Wen immediately said, “Bring her in.”

A moment later, a young woman with disheveled hair and band-aids all over her face was brought in.

Lin Wen frowned. There was nothing special about this woman. Her aura was like a goose egg, and it was difficult to see through the chaos. He could only confirm that there was no blackness.

“Your name is Qin Luoshuang?”

The woman replied in a low voice, “Yes, sir.”

Lin Wen was a little hesitant. However, this name was not common. It was impossible for two people to have the same name in such a small area.

But compared to the man earlier, this woman was too inconspicuous.

Wait!

Back then, Pang Tong had been just as inconspicuous. He had been placed by Old Liu in a small county to be a magistrate, and had drunk for half a year. When Old Liu came to question him out of anger, he put on a show for a day before settling the matters that had accumulated.

Wasn’t the situation very similar?

Lin Wen was tempted, but he could not directly promote her to Deputy County Governor. If Old Liu had brought Pang Tong up at the start, would there have been any more posturing?

He pointed at Zhao Minggong and said.

“You’re his assistant now. You’ll be handling all the affairs in the county with him later.”

This arrangement was perfect.

Lin Wen was very pleased.

The crux of the matter was that it was “with him”, not “for him”. This was called misplaced competition.

The two geniuses were equal and would definitely not be convinced by each other. When the sun and moon were competing for glory, wouldn’t all the troubles melt away?

Ahahahaha!

Duke Zhao and Qin Luoshuang also heard Lin Wen’s specific choice of words. Their expressions were filled with disbelief.

“I need to leave as soon as possible. I don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble and make my Dao heart covered in dust.”

Lin Wen thought to himself and quickly said, “The meeting is over, dismissed!” At the same time, he rushed out.

As he was too fast, by the time everyone regained their senses, he was already at the door.

wa

Duke Zhao shouted, “County governor! There’s no longer a mayor in Huai Town!”

Lin Wen replied, “You’ll work as the mayor of Huai Town too! You can decide on such a small matter yourself. You don’t have to ask for my opinion.”

Zhao Minggong wanted to say more, but the county governor was already out of sight.

Turning around, everyone present stared at him with burning gazes.

…

Back in the county governor’s office, Lin Wen was about to study spells, but Fang Dashan followed him.

Lin Wen had no choice but to use the Heart of Seven Orifices to chat with Fang Dashan. He didn’t know why the Heart of Seven Orifices was so effective this time, but Fang Dashan quickly treated the county head as a friend and a superior who could completely suppress him. He swore an oath of unconditional loyalty on the spot and pounded his chest loudly, declaring that as long as it was an order from the county head, he would do anything, even if it meant going through fire and water.

After sending Fang Dashan off, Ma Baojia, the high-ranking sheriff of the Public Security Department, came uninvited.

He was the third most powerful person in the Public Security Department apart from the chief and the deputy chief, but in fact, he had very little power and was far inferior to the deputy chief.

However, since both of them were involved in the rebellion, he was now the most powerful man.

Lin Wen took a look at this person. He was greedy for power and loved money. There were black threads in his aura, which made up about 5% of the total.

He could not really trust this guy.

Lin Wen asked him to temporarily take over the daily work of the Public Security Department, reestablish the order, and send 50 sheriffs and security guards to await orders tomorrow.

Finally, there was Xu Kangxing, who was a member of the Special Investigations Bureau and the third most powerful person in the Special Investigations Bureau, and his authority was much greater than that of a high-ranking sheriff.

Lin Wen instructed him to detain the rebels and collect evidence of their crimes. He also wanted to destroy the false evidence that they had created to frame the wise and powerful county governor. At the same time, he also denied Xu Kang’s request to search for potential rebels. What a joke. This was the real Sword of Damocles, and if he wasn’t careful, he would be met with a lot of Evilness.

After dealing with this series of mundane affairs, Lin Wen studied magic techniques for a while and imagined the glory of the cultivation world. He thought about how to use these magic techniques to deal with powerful enemies when he roamed the cultivation world. Only then would he be able to turn the tables and kill everyone.

When he thought about it, he couldn’t help but feel his heart shake, and he yearned to immediately reincarnate and cultivate.

However, his rationality stopped him in time. He now knew that only by working hard in the physical world would the opening of the cultivation world be smoother. Only then would these relaxing scenes appear more frequently. Otherwise, just hiding in the dark and spending hundreds of years accumulating strength, seeking opportunities, and secretly seizing destiny would be painful enough.

Although he could not reincarnate immediately, the process of imagination in his dreams had cleansed his spirit. The fine dust from the day was washed clean, and his spirit platform was once again clean and spotless.

After a good night’s sleep, his state of mind recovered and he was once again filled with vigor and energy.

Soul Essence: 15%

Excessive recovery!

What surprised Lin Wen even more was that he had inexplicably gained more than ten points of Kindness than yesterday!

Lin Wen’s first thought was: Has the Kindness of rebuilding homes arrived?

However, he quickly realized that this was impossible. The construction team had not returned yet and the funds had just been counted. It was impossible for them to arrive so quickly.

Then where did this come from?

Thinking back to what he had done yesterday, it was impossible for him to gain any from suppressing the riot. If he had, he would have been given earlier and wouldn’t have waited so long

Thus, there was only one possibility left.

Was it because his two newly promoted representatives had handled the miscellaneous affairs too well?

Or was it because his appreciation allowed them to soar into the sky and display their ambitions? Or was it because of both?

Lin Wen wasn’t sure yet, but it was definitely because of them.
