「Several days later.」
Jiang Che received a transfer order from the Internal Affairs Hall at his home.
He opened it and saw the words written clearly upon it:
"Black Stone Mining Area Steward."
It was even stamped with the seal of the Internal Affairs Hall.
Jiang Che was stunned.
'Why was I transferred to a Mining Area?'
Besides, a post in the Mining Area was, by all accounts, a lucrative one.
It was highly unlikely for an ordinary disciple like him, with no background, to get it.
What's more, he had even paid a bribe of one hundred taels of gold for an undesirable patrol position that offered no perks and that no one was fighting over.
He did it just to be safe, so they wouldn't assign him any other "better" positions.
'So what's going on now?'
'Could it be that there were no openings for the Sect gate patrol, and I just happened to luck into an opening at the Mining Area?'
After thinking it over and over, the only conclusion he could reach was that he had gotten lucky.
