The Night Watchman of Another World: I know a lot of things

After that, Yang Qing did not patrol again. He found a corner to hide and rest.

The battle just now exhausted his physical strength, especially the last "horse riding" part. He was bumping left and right the whole time and must have suffered a lot of hidden injuries.

To the point that now, if I move my limbs a little, my whole body aches.

Fortunately, Yang Qing did not encounter any other evil spirits that night.

But then again, on a relatively peaceful night like this, it is considered unlucky to encounter more than two evil spirits in one night.

Although this evil will emerge from the abyss of heaven in large numbers at night and invade the entire earth.

But when it is spread across the mainland, the number is averaged out.

Therefore, for night watchmen who are only responsible for a certain range, fighting will not occur too frequently.

Evil spirits will only appear in large numbers when there are special events such as a blood moon or evil spirits attacking the city.

Even by that time, not only did the number of evil spirits increase, but high-level evil spirits appeared frequently, and all towns were on level one alert.

A few hours later, a ray of light gradually appeared in the east.

Yang Qing, who was leaning against the wall meditating to restore his strength, also stretched lazily towards the light.

The dawn also meant that the danger was temporarily over, and night watchmen like Yang Qing could live another day.

These evil spirits are afraid of sunlight, and before dawn, they will try every means to find a place to hide.

After the night patrol, Yang Qing had to return to the Night Patrol Office first, where there was a clerk responsible for checking in every morning.

They are responsible for their attendance and casualties, and based on these situations, they should pay last night's wages and recruit new night watchmen in a timely manner.

Half an hour later, Yang Qing successfully completed the check-in and received last night's salary. Then Yang Qing turned around and went to the warehouse responsible for providing equipment for the night watchmen.

Last night, his thin iron knife was broken by the scaly-clawed beast, and now he urgently needs to replace it with a new one.

Of course, even if you change it, it will probably still be the kind of low-quality iron blade forged from cast iron that will easily break when subjected to gravity.

The Night Patrol Division, or the entire Hengzhou Prefecture government, would not spend extra money on night watchmen like them who were as insignificant as ants.

"Sir, please help me get a new knife."

Yang Qing put the broken knife from last night on the table in the warehouse to prove that his knife was indeed broken, and not something he sold to buy wine.

"The dagger is out of stock. If you are lucky enough, come back in a few days."

On the other side of the desk, a short clerk with two rat moustaches under his lips was leaning on a recliner in a very ungraceful manner. He just glanced at Yang Qing and stroked his sleeves and said, with a look of great contempt.

"Sir, please give me a favor."

After saying that, Yang Qing quietly pushed a string of copper coins in front of the clerk.

As soon as he saw the other party's attitude, Yang Qing knew that some "procedures" had to go through.

This is Yang Qing’s salary from last night, a total of one hundred coins, and it hasn’t even warmed up yet.

It is called salary if you survive. If you die, this money is just money to buy your life.

"Haha, you are quite smart, just wait for me!"

The clerk weighed the copper coin, stood up from the armchair, shook his waist, then turned and went into the warehouse.

When he came out again, he had a short iron knife in his hand.

From Yang Qing's perspective, the blade of the dagger was not only dull, but also had traces of rust.

"Sir, do you have any better weapons? This knife is a little uncomfortable to use."

Touching the rough iron dagger, Yang Qing asked tentatively.

"You want something better?

Yes, I have fine iron long knives, fine iron long swords, and even fine iron knives. Do you want any?"

After saying this, the clerk in charge of the warehouse took out a long sword with a snow-white blade from the warehouse at the back and slapped it on the table.

"The fine iron long sword weighs three pounds and four ounces. It is made by repeatedly forging fine iron. It can easily pierce leather armor!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Yang Qing was delighted upon seeing this, thinking that the one hundred copper coins were well worth it. He did not expect that this petty official was a man who could accomplish great things with small sums of money.

But when Yang Qing reached out to grab the knife, he was stopped by the clerk.

"You are the updater who just joined yesterday, right? There are some rules that you may need to know.

I heard that the first Filthy Pearl you captured while on duty is your prize, take it out and let me see it!"

At this point, there are some things that don't need to be explained any further.

The so-called "look" means to hand it over.

The clerk's name was Wang Gang. He was able to work in the Yeyousi Yamen because his brother-in-law was a clerk in the Hengzhou Prefecture Yamen, a relatively minor official.

I used some connections to find him a job in this place.

Originally, there was not much profit in giving equipment to these night watchmen.

But there is no way Wang Gang dares to squeeze oil!

Even if he was a night watchman who was in danger of losing his job every day, he would still get some benefits.

He turned this job with little pay into a lucrative one.

At this moment, the greed in Wang Gang's eyes was undisguised, and this was clearly a request for benefits.

As long as this evil bead falls into his hands, he can sell it for fifty or sixty taels of silver in no time.

In his plan, all the night watchmen under his jurisdiction must hand over the first dirty bead to him. This is the rule he set.

Of course, you can choose not to give it, but don’t blame him for making things difficult for you in the future.

He felt comfortable bullying people like the night watchman, who were at the bottom of the society.

Yang Qing was not a fool. Upon hearing that, he gave Wang Gang a simple smile and took out a dirty bead from his arms.

It was the one dropped by the scaly-clawed beast that he killed alone last night.

When Wang Gang saw Yang Qing take out the beads, his face lit up with joy and he reached out to take them.

But Yang Qing's hand holding the bead retracted, and then the dirty bead and the fine iron long knife on the table were both put into Yang Qing's arms.

"Boy! What do you mean!"

When Wang Gang saw Yang Qing offering last night's salary on his own initiative, he thought that the guy in front of him was a well-behaved person, so he let down his guard. However, he didn't expect that this guy was actually a sly one.

"Sir, you wanted to see the Filthy Pearl, and since you have just seen it, I will accept the long sword.

Yang Qing is here, thank you for the sword."

After saying that, Yang Qing laughed at Wang Gang, bowed, and then retreated out of the warehouse door.

Are you kidding? I am still short of the Filthy Pearl now, how could I give it to him for no reason?

"Boy, you are smart this time, but you better listen to me carefully.

Take good care of the knife in your hand, and also take good care of your own life, because next time, it won’t be so easy to get the equipment.

What I mean is, since you broke the rules first, you can never get even a penny of equipment from me again.

snort! "

Wang Gang was furious when he saw that he was being fooled.

But since Yang Qing had already retreated outside the gate, it was not a good idea to make a big deal out of this matter and put it in front of everyone.

If this matter were to be made known to everyone, it would make me appear incompetent, as even a small night watchman could play tricks on me.

Therefore, Wang Gang could only shout behind Yang Qing.

Yang Qing could foresee Wang Gang's reaction, but he was eager to improve his strength. If he wanted to survive, he had to seize every opportunity to become stronger. He would never accommodate such a person.

Since I've offended you, I'll just have to accept the offense.

Yang Qing's attitude has always been good, and after a moment he put all these miscellaneous things behind him.

After leaving the Night Patrol Office, Yang Qing went straight back to the accommodation arranged for him by the night watchman's office.
