Laxmi has found her savior, losing her fear of Heru Cokro, proudly running behind Fatimah. She grimaced and said, “Yes yes, Sister Fatimah, you really are Laxmi's best sister.”
Fatimah pulled Laxmi from behind her, nodding in agreement. He said, “Sometimes you are too naughty, no wonder big brother is angry. Go apologize to Brother Heru.” He said this very firmly, as if to say: “Son, you better not make your brother angry, or this is not a good day for you.”
Laxmi turned pale, glanced a second time, making sure he understood Fatimah's intentions, he left obediently in front of Heru Cokro and said sincerely, “Silver, Laxmi was wrong. I'm willing to follow Fatimah's sister and learn from her how to be an adult woman.”
Heru Cokro nodded, and quietly said in his heart, “Stupid if I believe you!” then he handed the lantern to Laxmi, saying, "Take it and play."
Laxmi's girl picked up the lantern, thanked him, and ran while smiling out the door, looking for someone to show off her lantern. Heru Cokro and Fatimah exchanged glances, shook their heads and smiled.
"Sister, did you go to the market to buy a lantern?" Fatima asked.
Heru Cokro nodded. “Yes, I bought a number of new year items from the market to give to the inhabitants of Java Dwipa. New year is coming, it's time for them to relax, get together and have fun.”
"Nobody thought about it." Siti Fatimah replied with admiration.
Heru Cokro waved his hand and turned to the office of the Material Reserve Bureau to look for Puspita Wardani. After handing over the new year items with him, he returned to his office.
In his office was stacked a bundle of leather clothes. There are belts, bracelets, and boots. Although Laxmi is usually mischievous, she is very serious in her work.
Heru Cokro picked up the pieces of armor one by one to inspect them. The buffalo skin is sewn into two chest protectors of the skin and four belts. The bark of the boar boss is sewn into four sets of knee and wrist protectors, while the fur of the wolf boss has been used to make four pairs of boots. As for the fur of the wild dog boss, its value was small, so Laxmi only made four dart spots out of it.
That's 18 pieces of equipment. Except for the chest protector from the skin, all of them are silver class. The two chest protectors were each level of dark gold and gold. Heru Cokro suspected that Laxmi had broken through to the tailor master when he managed to make these dark gold pieces.
[Name]: Pamong kebo (black gold)
[Type]: Leather
[Weight]: 3 kilograms
[Defense]: 60
[Toughness]: 65
[Maker]: Laxmi (with equipment naming rights)
[Evaluation]: Made by master tailor Laxmi from the skin of a level 9 buffalo boss. Beautiful craftsmanship\, reasonable design and have excellent defense.
Across Indonesia, there may be no more than five pieces of dark gold equipment, basically all of them monopolized by the maharaja players. Even if he had the Laxmi girl try her luck again, she would not necessarily be able to make another dark golden skin. Because there's a lot of luck involved.
Heru Cokro replaced the crazy pamong armor on his body with the dark gold pamong kebo armor. Then he wears a belt and a leg guard. As for the braces and boots, they were all silver-level and he maintained a crazy set of equipment to wear.
The rest of the armor, he prepared to give as a gift to the infantry platoon. Since the weapon workshop did not yet possess the ability to forge iron armor, they still included light infantry warriors. This skin is suitable for use.
However, it was not yet the time to reward them. One, they're still a militia being trained. Two, he had yet to decide who would be the commander of the infantry platoon, so he did not know who to award.
After handling the equipment, Heru Cokro stayed in the office and did not come out again.
The following afternoon, the low-level test for the integrated service evaluation was completed.
In the office of the head of the hamlet, Kawis Guwa, Witana Sideng Rana, and Siti Fatimah. The three directors had gathered to listen to the integrated service evaluation report.
Mr. Kawis Guwa got up and saluted Heru Cokro. “This valuation is mainly for lower level bureaucrats. The Director is not included as they will be evaluated by His Majesty himself. As for the Security and Pantura Division it is also not within the scope of this evaluation.
“Therefore, this assessment is mainly intended for the Agriculture Division, Construction Division, and Civil Registry Division which are under the jurisdiction of the Administration Bureau. Then there is the Division of Taxation, Business Division and Bank Nusantara which is under the jurisdiction of the Financial Bureau. Lastly, there is the Salt Gudang, Fish Farm, War Preparation Division, Material Reserve Bureau, and Transportation Division of the Material Reserve Bureau.”
“The assessment will mainly be based on two aspects, morality and ability. Eight divisions under three bureaus, along with independent agencies, there are a total of 64 low-level administrative staff. Very good rating, there are 4. There are 18 people who are rated as good, 39 rated as good enough; and 3 rated as bad.”
After listening to Mr. Kawis Guwa's report, Heru Cokro's expression became solemn. From the results of the evaluation report, it is clear that the quality of novice bureaucrats in general is low. More than half of them just fall into the pretty good category, only four are very good, and the other three are bad. That made him angry. He asked, "Who's being judged badly?"
“The first person is Wiyoto. He was very rude, often even whipping the workers. Another was a butcher shopkeeper, named Sutrisno, often bringing home meat, and blaming others for the deficit. While the last is a barn officer, named Kaslan. He is negligent in his duties, thus making the grains polluted by rodents, causing great losses.” Mr. Kawis Guwa was clearly prepared, as his report was very detailed.
Heru Cokro asked with a gloomy face, “What do you think of their punishment?”
“The recommended action of the Integrated Services Division is to fire them and blacklist them for life.”
Heru Cokro obviously did not want to let go of this trash easily, and he firmly said, “This treatment is still good enough. Take them to work on walls and ditches. They will only be fed three times a day. When the walls and trenches are finished, then also ends their punishment.”
“In addition, I will fine the Construction Director of Buminegoro with a salary of two months, and fine the Director of the Material Reserve Bureau Puspita Wardani with a salary of three months. In addition, I remember the butcher shopkeeper who was originally appointed by former deputy Director of the Material Reserve Bureau, Joyonegoro. He should also be punished. Joyonegoro is in fine with six months of his salary, and he will be excluded from the list of Directors of the War Preparation Division, only serving as a representative for the time being.”
The roaring declaration of Heru Cokro tightened the hearts of all of them. Not only did he increase the punishment for neglecting duty, he also made their boss responsible!
