Chapter 259: Working Hard to Save Money (2)
If audio player doesn't work, press Stop then Play button again
The gifts in the area under my jurisdiction are about 2,300 taels a year. My salary is 600 taels, and I can usually receive some bribes… If I’m lucky, I can save up to 5,000 taels a year. However, I have to spend money on many aspects. I have to make friends and treat others. I might even have to share some with my superior—those expenses won’t be trivial, Xu Jingming thought. It’s already pretty good if I can get 3,500 taels a year as a Blood Rain Guard captain.
If I abide by the rules, I’ll only earn 10,000 gold after 30 years! However, can my identity live for 30 years in Blood Rain World? Xu Jingming shook his head.
As a cosmic citizen player, from the day he became a Blood Rain Guard captain, the targeting he faced had increased.
If he became a centurion, the targeting would increase again.
According to the information he had gathered, the higher the rank, the harder life became!
“Captain, shouldn’t we go to Fragrance Restaurant?” His subordinate’s voice sounded from the door.
“Let’s go to Fragrance Restaurant.” Xu Jingming naturally had to arrive early since he was the host.
******
Xu Jingming quickly became familiar with his life as a Blood Rain Guard captain.
As the captain, he could have fun every day! This was because some of the hard and tiring work was done by the auxiliary guards. The Blood Rain Guards under him were responsible for monitoring the various areas! Only when something major happened would they report it to their captain and get him to give the order. In fact, the so-called ‘major matters’ were things that rarely happened.
These days are really relaxing. Xu Jingming practiced his spearmanship in the martial arts arena in his residence. He only stepped out when the sun set, and the five Blood Rain Guards immediately followed.
He arrived at Nine Flavors Restaurant.
“Captain.” Zhang Ke and Qian Yan warmly greeted him.
Xu Jingming waved his hand, and the five Blood Rain Guards behind him retreated to find a place to drink and eat.
Xu Jingming, Zhang Ke, and Qian Yan entered Nine Flavors Restaurant.
He sat in a corner on the second floor.
“Captain, Nine Flavors’s ‘nine flavors’ are quite famous in the capital. You have to try it,” said Zhang Ke.
“Tell me, what happened in the past three days?” Xu Jingming asked.
According to the rules, they met every three days! The two deputy captains reported all their work for the past three days. If there were any special matters… they would naturally report to Xu Jingming immediately.
“In the past three days, the area under our jurisdiction has been relatively stable. There were just a few cases of petty crimes out of bravado. The dead were gang members and are nothing worth mentioning. However, many major events have happened elsewhere in the capital,” Zhang Ke said.
“Tell me about it.” Xu Jingming listened as he ate.
As time passed… More and more customers came to Nine Flavors Restaurant. At the same time, there was a performance on stage.
The music sounded like a stream flowing through the entire restaurant. The customers enjoyed the atmosphere.

Xu Jingming was in a good mood because the music was melodious, and the woman performing was beautiful. Nine Flavors Restaurant’s reputation was well-deserved.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Suddenly, noisy footsteps sounded, causing Xu Jingming to frown slightly. Anyone with a little refinement… would have walked softly when they heard the music. However, these people didn’t restrain their footsteps at all as they arrived on the second floor.
This group of people arrived on the second floor. A guard scanned his surroundings and paused on Xu Jingming and the others before saying, “Guests on the second floor, please give up your seats and quickly head downstairs! Our Shengong family will cover your meal.”
“Please.” The gray-robed guards urged every table.
“Shengong family?” The guests on the second floor weren’t hard to do; otherwise, they wouldn’t have come to Nine Flavors Restaurant for a meal. But when they saw the attitude of this group of people and heard the name ‘Shengong family,’ many guests immediately stood up.
“Captain, it’s the Shengong family,” Qian Yan whispered. “Let’s go.”
“Shengong?” Xu Jingming glanced at the group.
These people were rather arrogant—even the guards were arrogant!
The Shengong family is one of the top aristocratic families in the capital. Even the Blood Rain Guard’s four envoys dare not provoke them. Xu Jingming knew very well that the Shengong family was ranked in the top ten in the capital. In the entire Blood Rain World, they were a terrifying faction that could be ranked in the top 20.
Even though Fei Qing—who backed him—had great authority, it was because the emperor supported him.
The Shengong family was strong due to its deep roots. The emperor had to butter up such large families.
“Captain,” Zhang Ke softly urged, “Let’s go.”
“Let’s go.” Xu Jingming got up. He would be sending himself to his death if he clashed with the Shengong family.
“Senior Brother, these three are Blood Rain Guards, right?” The man and woman—who were surrounded by the men—looked at Xu Jingming and the others, who had stood up and left. A portion of their uniforms was still exposed under their robes.
“They are just a bunch of mad dogs.” The youth shot a glance at Xu Jingming and company, his eyes filled with disgust. “A large number of Blood Rain Guards are watching my house all year round. No matter how I scold them, they don’t say a word. They just keep staring.”
“Everywhere across the capital, I see these crazy dogs as long as it’s a slightly famous street.” The youth curled his lips. “I didn’t expect to see three more crazy dogs in Nine Flavors today. What a bummer.”

Xu Jingming, Zhang Ke, and Qian Yan walked down the stairs and clearly heard the person say ‘three mad dogs.’
Qian Yan was very calm.
Zhang Ke’s ears turned red.
Xu Jingming frowned as well.
However, the three of them still walked down.
