Chapter 244: Chapter 15: You don’t agree? [Extra for Old Bookworm No.6 of the Silver Alliance]

Immediately, Song Yidao and Fan Tiantiao warmly approached, smiles all over their faces, "Vice Mountain Master Huang, you’ve worked hard, Instructor Li, you’ve worked hard. The two of you coming here personally truly brings glory to the Guardian Hall."

Then Song Yidao looked at Fang Che, "So this is Fang Che? Steward Fang? Indeed, hearing of someone is not as good as seeing them in person, and seeing them in person is even better than hearing of them. Truly a talented individual."

"Master Song."

Li Changkong was very polite, "Here, I entrust my student to you. I hope, Master Song, you’ll take good care of him."

"Of course, certainly, Instructor Li’s outstanding student, we will undoubtedly give special attention."

Song Yidao laughed heartily and then warmly invited Li Changkong and Huang Yifan inside to talk.

He said to Fan Tiantiao, "Take Steward Fang around to familiarize himself with our Guardian Hall and give a detailed introduction."

"Yes, Hall Master."

Fan Tiantiao took Fang Che inside, smiling, "Fang Che, from the first time I saw you until now, I really didn’t expect us to become colleagues."

Fang Che said respectfully, "How could I dare to call myself a colleague with Vice Hall Master?"

The two walked inside.

"This is the main entrance, so I won’t introduce it. But from now on, you need to scan your waist card when you come to work every day. Once your face becomes familiar, you won’t have to scan anymore. This here is the emergency team; if something happens, they’ll head out immediately, leaving one person to stay and report. This is customs and social affairs management, which deals with the government on matters that don’t concern high-level martial artists; this is the Discipline Hall, this is the Merit Hall... this is the Combat Hall, where three to five people follow the emergency team if something arises. Over there is the dining hall; as long as you don’t head out, you can eat there. This is the Finance Hall where you can claim rewards, merit points, and monthly salary benefits. This is the Weapon Hall, and the two large halls are the Martial Arts Halls. This is the Meditation Room, where you can spend merit points for cultivation inside. This is the Alchemy Hall, and this..."

Fang Che was dazzled by everything he saw.

He could only try hard to remember everything.

Didn’t he say a detailed introduction? Fan Tiantiao’s mouth was like a clockwork toy, constantly spewing words. Did he misunderstand the concept of a detailed introduction?

Luckily, in his previous life, he had entered such Guardian Halls many times, or else this time around, he’d surely be confused.

There was so much!

"Here is the Steward Hall. You usually stay here, belonging to the War Hall Steward. According to the regulations, a steward should have between two to five Guardians under them. But now our Baiyun State Guardian Hall is short on manpower, so we can only assign one person to you. He has the cultivation of an Innate Great Grandmaster. Little Tang, come here."

A young man from afar quickly stood up and trotted over, "Hello, Master Fan."

"Vice Hall Master!"

Fan Tiantiao corrected, "From now on, you’ll follow Steward Fang."

"Hello, Steward Fang. I’m Tang Zheng."

Little Tang was very respectful in his manners.

"Little Tang is from the Tang Family, a seventh-level family in Baiyun State. It’s said he’s been here in the Guardian Hall for three years, very familiar with it. You can ask him if you don’t understand anything."

"Currently, you haven’t been assigned any special duties. You’re just patrolling the south of Baiyun State. There are thirty others with the same duty as you, and there’s a large team in the south of the city. You can choose to act together with others or act alone; our hall doesn’t have strict requirements on this. Your duty is to check if there are any anomalies and handle or report them depending on the situation."

"Your position is at this desk, and the surrounding cabinets and cupboards are yours. Due to limited conditions, everyone is in a large hall together. When you get promoted, you’ll have your own room."

"Behind there are dormitories. You can choose to find a room there to rest, or you can go home. But your duty time cannot be delayed. If delayed, your salary and merit points will be deducted."

"..."

Fan Tiantiao explained a lot in detail.

Then he asked, "Understood?"

"I think I understand a bit for now, but the Vice Hall Master said so much, and our Guardian Hall is so big, my brain needs to adapt first."

Fang Che said.

"Take your time to adapt."

He said to a person at a desk behind Fang Che, "Ren Chang, Steward Ren, if Steward Fang doesn’t understand something, you as the Old Steward should remind him anytime."

Ren Chang, with graying hair and a wrinkled face, his body slightly hunched, responded repeatedly, "Rest assured, Vice Hall Master, I will do my utmost."

Fan Tiantiao left.

Before long, Fang Che’s stuff was all delivered, including stationary, various accessories, living necessities, and standard weapons, etc.

A large pile.

Little Tang diligently helped Fang Che arrange and put things in their places, doing it very skillfully.

As if he had done it many times before.

"Little Tang, what have you been doing for these three years?" Fang Che asked.

"The first year I patrolled the streets, later, because I was timid, I got beaten back, so I stayed at the Steward Hall doing odd jobs. But now my cultivation has improved, patrolling the streets is something I can handle."

"Oh, how much improvement?"

"Three years ago, I was First Grade Innate Grandmaster, now I’m Early Stage Second Grade."

Fang Che nodded, praising, "Very quick."

"Not bad."

Little Tang said, "Thanks to my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law is the War Hall Master in our Guardian Hall."

Fang Che immediately understood, "Oh, my apologies, my apologies."

"Hey, Steward Fang, you don’t need to be so courteous. My brother-in-law is my brother-in-law, I am me, I’m your subordinate. If you have any task, just say it. Don’t worry about anything. Little Tang will rely on Lord Fang from now on."

"Got it, got it."

Fang Che grinned, "How many stewards do we have total?"

"More than two hundred, split into two halls. Here is Hall No. 2, there’s another across the hall."

Little Tang placed a copy of the Guardian Hall rules on the table, "You can read this when you have free time."

"Okay."

"Steward Fang looks so young, how old are you this year?"

"Eighteen."

"Hmm... so young, the same age as my younger brother, I feel close as soon as I see you."

Fang Che’s face darkened, "Tang Zheng!"

"I’m here!"

"Who gave you the guts to speak to me like that? Treating me like a younger brother? Huh?"

Fang Che exerted a little pressure.

Immediately, Tang Zheng broke out in a sweat, almost kneeling.

"Steward... Steward Fang, I won’t dare again."

"Get to work! Fetch water, make tea! Quickly! Who told you to chat with me? Is this your job? Only come to talk when you’re needed, stay quiet otherwise, got it!"

"Yes, yes!"

Little Tang, with his head sweating profusely, left.

Fang Che snorted and sat boldly.

Little Tang, at first sight, seemed quite slick; and right after Fan Tiantiao left, he immediately brought up his brother-in-law, the War Hall Master.

Fang Che understood what that meant.

He knew very well that there were many such people in the Guardian Hall!

Chasing away Little Tang would just bring another like him.

Might as well be impersonal and start giving direct orders.

After all, in Fan Tiantiao and the others’ eyes, I am an undercover from the Yixin Sect. My chances for promotion and merit are slim. So, I’ll start by prepping this Steward Hall.

Fang Che didn’t find it tedious at all.

Since he needed to walk the path of an undercover, this was a necessary step.

The grind in the Guardian Hall had to be endured.

Did an undercover life mean constant bloodshed? That’s impossible!

But currently, the only thing on his mind was that Sun Yuan’s head was still hanging on the city wall. This matter must be resolved quickly.

He couldn’t really be trapped by trivial matters.

Moreover, those who killed Sun Yuan must still be in Baiyun State. Fang Che was aware that based on their strength and Jianghu experience, they should be able to find him.

Why haven’t they come yet?

While thinking this, he heard a voice say, "Steward Fang, what authority you hold!"

The voice was a bit sarcastic.

Fang Che turned and saw a brawny man looking at him disdainfully, wearing a steward’s attire.

Apparently, he was dissatisfied with Fang Che’s scolding of Little Tang earlier.

"What’s the matter? Not convinced?"

Fang Che immediately talked back.

"Watch your mouth!"

The man slammed the table and stood up, "Don’t you know how to respect your seniors?"

"What the hell are you! I’m here to work, not to respect seniors! How I discipline my subordinates is none of your seniors’ business! Not convinced? Want to go outside and try!?"

Fang Che was utterly unyielding.

Instantly, the four or five dozen stewards present in the Steward Hall looked angry.

"Youngster! It’s your first day here, don’t be so arrogant!"

"Arrogant, so what?" Fang Che slammed the table.

Instantly, emotions boiled over.

"Come out, I’ll teach you what it means to respect the old and revere the wise!"

...

A short while later.

Thirty or so stewards, wearing expressions like pigs, followed a spotless Fang Che back inside, each wearing a crestfallen expression.

Beside Fang Che’s desk.

Little Tang’s hands were shaking as he prepared tea.

This Steward Fang was really terrifying.

Beating more than thirty at once!

"From today onwards, I call the shots here. Tang Zheng! I’m officially telling you now, don’t even mention your brother-in-law as the Hall Master. Even if your brother-in-law were the Hall Master, it wouldn’t matter! Unless he transfers you, there’s no exception under me. Mess up your work, and I’ll skin you alive!"

Fang Che stood with his hands behind, looking at the stewards before him, "And the rest of you, behave yourselves! I don’t believe in anything else, just the fist!"

"Don’t try to boss me around, we’re all stewards, what’s so great? If you’re capable, get promoted to Chief Steward, or become a Hall Master. Am I right?"

"I don’t enjoy fighting you all, really, it diminishes our hall’s combat power."

After finishing, he plopped into his seat.

"Tang Zheng, bring me the South District materials I’m responsible for. Lacking something, expect a beating. Lack a lot, then it’s time to leave!"

Fang Che, not at all courteous, took a sip of the freshly brewed tea.

Little Tang dared not resist, obediently turning to work.

The other stewards also kept silent, the atmosphere suddenly quieted.

For those stewards who hadn’t fought, curiosity arose.

Unexpectedly, there’s a strong character here today, a newcomer, battering all those stewards alone. I wonder how long he can remain strong."
