I Play Dungeons in the Police Station-Chapter 377 - 233: 1,000,000 Yuan Bonus
The final item on the agenda was to analyze the shortcomings of this operation and the lessons to be learned. Finally, everyone stood up together, sang the Police Song, and then took a group photo for remembrance.
As the biggest hero of this operation, Li Xiang naturally stood in the center, with the leaders from the ministry nearby.
It’s over!
It’s over?
Li Xiang was a bit surprised, is it just over like that?
"Where’s my bonus?"
Ever since he bought that set of equipment, he’s been so broke he could eat dirt. He thought that after this operation, he could get a hefty bonus.
Who knew, apart from being promoted three ranks up and receiving a first-class merit, there was nothing else to see. This doesn’t conform to the party’s style.
Mental rewards are important, but material rewards are indispensable too.
The crowd dispersed, but this issue continued to trouble him.
After the event, Fan Yonglin noticed something was off about Li Xiang’s expression. Others would be grinning from ear to ear after a three-rank promotion and a first-class merit, but not him, he looked expressionless.
At this moment, a lack of expression means unhappiness, so Fan Yonglin jokingly asked, "What’s wrong? Not happy even after a three-rank promotion?"
"Liar."
Li Xiang rolled his eyes: Don’t you know if I’m happy or not?
They promised a bonus for going abroad on a mission back then.
And the bonus amount was tied to the amount of seized funds. Now that forty billion has been seized, plus the money Hongjie voluntarily gave, I didn’t pocket a cent.
Had it been someone else, they would have definitely taken advantage of the situation.
I just want my money clean. I don’t need opulence; sitting on a pile of money, not daring to spend it, is real suffering.
But, that doesn’t mean I don’t want a penny.
"Hey! Hold on, are you calling me a liar? Explain clearly."
Hearing Li Xiang call him a liar made Fan Yonglin cross as well. He fought for so many benefits for Li Xiang, yet got called a liar?
After all the work, he not only went unnoticed but even became resented?
"Where is the promised bonus? I haven’t seen a cent. I captured all of them at once without giving them any chance to transfer assets, just look at other action groups, the funds they seized don’t compare to ours, right? Where’s my bonus? Did you take it?"
"No, no, no, you can mess with food but not words."
Fan Yonglin quickly covered Li Xiang’s mouth. This guy dares to say anything. If someone overheard, they might actually think Old Fan is skimming bonuses.
"In such a grand meeting, how could money be discussed? Rest assured, you won’t be short of money. The provincial finance department will directly allocate funds to you. You don’t even have to pay taxes on this bonus; you can spend it freely. Just wait a couple of days."
"Really?"
Li Xiang looked at him with a doubtful gaze.
"Just wait and see, if it really doesn’t happen, you can criticize me, Fan, for withholding your bonus, and I won’t stop you."
"Alright, it’s a deal."
Song Jun watched Li Xiang and the leader casually interact, feeling quite envious.
He doesn’t have the guts to directly accuse the leader of withholding his bonus.
"Don’t rush home yet, come to my office, I have something to discuss with you."
Hearing that the bonus was ensured, Li Xiang’s face immediately beamed with a smile: "Just say the word, boss."
"Now you recognize me as your boss?"
It was Fan Yonglin’s turn to roll his eyes.
Comrade Li doesn’t seem greedy, as he even turned in the money Hongjie gave; had he wanted to be greedy, no one would know about that money.
Yet, if he’s not greedy, just the mention of that bonus, he might flip on his boss.
But that’s good, he stands up for what’s right, not taking what isn’t his.
If it’s rightfully his, not a penny less.
He’s someone who gets things done, which is also why he admires Li Xiang.
When the group reached Fan Yonglin’s office, he said after they sat down, "I heard your skill in skull restoration is remarkable. The provincial office is now collaborating with the Ministry of Electronic Information Technology on electronic skull restoration technology and hit a technical bottleneck. They need experts on skull restoration skills, see if you have time, they’re inviting you to help solve this."
"Who told you that?"
Li Xiang felt a headache coming, how did my little skill spread so quickly?
Glancing at Song Jun, could he have exposed it?
Seeing Li Xiang look at him, Song Jun quickly shook his head: "Not me, we’re barely covering it, I understand the principle of keeping wealth hidden."
"Kid, you have such talent, yet you want to keep it hidden? Remember your show-off in Jinling City? That time Yu Chuanfei and the provincial office requested a skull restoration expert for support, but because of sudden health issues, the expert couldn’t come as scheduled. Later, when the expert’s health slightly recovered, he finally got involved in the case, only to find it had already been solved by you. After seeing your skull restoration, he gave you the highest praise. It indeed gave me a surprise, how many secrets do you have that I don’t know about?"
After Fan Yonglin’s explanation, Li Xiang finally knew what went wrong.
As the technology learned more and explored widely, his edge was bound to be exposed.
"Not many, you know almost everything. Since the provincial office has experts in this field, I guess I won’t be needed. You know, we’re quite busy at the grassroots level."
