My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 58

Chapter 58 Promotion? Transfer? Benefits?

“Hmm.” Zhang Hongbo nodded. “I promised Yuan Chenyang that I would modify his information next year.”

Yang Yan closed the document, not unfamiliar with the matter of modifying information.

The implicit exclusion of vagrants was a well-known fact, but there were also important figures who, with keen insight, discovered talents among the vagrants.

To avoid potential exclusion, modifying one’s profile was also a solution.

After seven or eight years, no one would remember their former vagrant status, and whatever was on the file would be considered accurate.

“Do you have a plan?” Yang Yan closed the document.

“He’s part of the patrol team, and according to regulations, he should patrol at least once every three days,” Zhang Hongbo whispered. “But he hasn’t been out recently. I can talk to him.”

“He’s still a Tier 1 Professional, he can’t refuse.”

“Since it’s within his duties, it’s settled.” Yang Yan put away his hesitation:

“Consider it a test for him. If he’s unwilling, it means he lacks dedication, and there’s no need to modify his information.”

“That’s all we can do. He should understand,” Zhang Hongbo sighed. “After all, we’re not just letting him risk his life; our people will be there to back him up.”

Yang Yan didn’t comment. He left with Gu Bing, who had been silent until they reached the elevator. Gu Bing pushed up his glasses and said, “He’s using you.”

“His son also has a Brilliant Silver talent. After training, when he’s reassigned to Southwind City, he’ll likely inherit his father’s position as City Lord. An extra Su Chen would just introduce a variable.”

“Since we made the decision, Yuan Chenyang won’t be able to find any fault.”

“I know,” Yang Yan said nonchalantly. “As long as his method works.”

…………

Su Chen was eagerly pulled to the top floor by Sun Tai and knocked on the office door. After getting permission, they entered.

“It’s you two?” Zhang Hongbo was quite surprised, as his order to find Su Chen hadn’t been relayed yet.

However, it worked out perfectly.

“Come, sit,” he said with a warm smile, making them feel welcome.

Before he could speak, Sun Tai began, his face creased with a chrysanthemum-like smile, “Congratulations, City Lord!”

“Congratulate me?” Zhang Hongbo, who was about to speak, paused, a hint of confusion in his eyes. “Why?”

“The Supervision Department just produced a Tier 2 Professional, a pillar of strength for our Southwind City. Shouldn’t I congratulate you?” Sun Tai quickly replied.

“Tier 2 Professional?” Zhang Hongbo’s eyelids twitched, his gaze slowly shifting to Su Chen, who maintained a reserved expression.

“That’s right, it’s Su Chen.” Sun Tai confirmed his guess, sighing, “It just so happens that while you’re acting as the head of the Supervision Department, Su Chen has a connection with you.”

Su Chen keenly noticed the fleeting change in Zhang Hongbo’s expression, but he quickly recovered, remarking with a sense of wonder, “I never expected it. Old Yuan really picked up a treasure this time. You’re already a Tier 2 Professional.”

Su Chen secretly became wary, forcing a bitter smile. “After being fortunate enough to be accepted as a student by my teacher, I’ve always cherished this opportunity, working diligently and never daring to relax.”

“I haven’t gone on patrol during this time, all for the sake of promotion.”

“Minor matter. As a student of the department head, how could you not have a few privileges?” Zhang Hongbo waved his hand, seemingly very pleased. “Indeed, you are a pillar of Southwind City.”

“A Tier 2 Professional. An ordinary patrol member or team leader is no longer worthy of your strength. However, there are no vacancies in the Supervision Department for now.”

Hearing him say that, the smile on Fatty Sun’s face faltered a bit.

But Zhang Hongbo pondered for a moment and then said, “How about this, you can be an honorary deputy section chief in the Patrol Division for now.”

Fatty Sun’s face was very expressive, constantly looking at Su Chen, wishing he would accept immediately.

Deputy section chief? Su Chen felt a strange sensation in his heart and instinctively declined, “No, no, I just joined the Supervision Department not long ago. I haven’t made any achievements, so how can I be promoted? What would my other colleagues think?” “Special circumstances call for special measures. Southwind City is in need of talent now,” Zhang Hongbo said, giving him no chance to refuse. “Let Section Chief Sun submit the application, the Vice Director will approve it, and I’ll stamp it.”

“By the way, as deputy section chief, you can go to logistics and pick out a Tier 2 weapon.”

Su Chen wanted to say something but hesitated.

“Also, you’ll receive one Liuli Blood every year, three Tier 2 Mist Fiend potions every week… and you can apply for E-grade Body Tempering Methods.”

Su Chen swallowed his words.

“Go on…”

In the end, Su Chen didn’t get the expected “dagger reveal,” and he was quite surprised.

“Is it really just a reward?”

He was still muttering as they got on the elevator, but Fatty Sun was very excited. “I never thought the City Lord would be so generous. I’ve judged a gentleman’s heart with my own petty mind.”

“So fast… Is he really training day and night in his room, not missing a single opportunity or moment? Such resolve…”

In the room, Zhang Hongbo frowned, his gaze fixed on the two words “Brilliant Silver” in the document, showing hesitation for the first time.

………

The speed of this promotion exceeded Su Chen’s imagination. Fatty Sun excitedly went to handle the paperwork for him, and in less than half an hour, he was back.

“Haha…” He grinned broadly, pulling out a delicate blue hurricane badge, and said with envy:

“Deputy Section Chief, tsk tsk… the City Lord truly has a broad mind. In such a short time, you, my little brother, are almost on par with me.”

“If the director were to handle this, it might cause controversy, but the City Lord is different. Little brother, pack up and prepare to take office.”

“Take office?” Su Chen, who was caressing the hurricane badge, suddenly had a strong premonition. “Where to?”

Fatty Sun still looked envious: “North City Surveillance Branch, concurrently as Deputy Director. As a Tier 2 Professional, you can’t just be idle.”

“After you return, Qin Cheng’s position will probably be gone.”

“Is that so…” Su Chen lowered his head, his eyes growing cold. He finally understood; they were using him as bait.

Yuan Chenyang had used it once, and Zhang Hongbo probably hadn’t found anything out, so he had to resort to dirty tricks.

Old Zhang, you really don’t let me have a moment of peace.

Fatty Sun thought he didn’t want to move, explaining, “Don’t worry… North City is quite prosperous, and the Surveillance Branch has everything. Even the gravity training room is five times stronger. Besides the Branch Chief, you’ll be the highest-ranking.”

“Just let the people below do the work, you’ll be just like you are here.”

“Really…” Su Chen shook his head. Old Sun knew too little and still thought this was a promotion.

However, he quickly realized another point: this didn’t seem to be Zhang Hongbo’s whim; he seemed to have planned it long ago.

He then remembered that the other party had specifically hinted at Sun Tai on the first day they arrived.

Su Chen was thoughtful. Thankfully, he had been promoted to a Tier 2 Professional, otherwise Zhang Hongbo might have just casually assigned him to patrol.

Since matters had come to this, he calmed his emotions and said, “Let’s go to logistics. The City Lord has granted me many things.”

Let’s get the benefits first.

“Let’s go, I’ll go with you.” Fatty Sun’s eyes darted around, and he chuckled, “Section Chief Qian from logistics is an old friend of mine. I heard he recently got something good, we must get it from him.”
