Infinite Journey
v1 Chapter 246: The ruffian Qin Ba
The local ruffian didn't dare to hide it, and said cautiously: "Little Qin Ba, he is barely a figure in this North Wind City, and he usually eats food near the city gate."
"Qin Ba, I have a deal, are you interested?"
Qin Ba's heart moved when he heard the words, he was also a clever person, otherwise he wouldn't be able to gather a few scoundrels and become the boss. Hearing Tang San's words, his eyes rolled, knowing that the person in front of him seemed to like him, and immediately said: "Master If there is any business, please tell me, the small one will never refuse if he can do it."
Seeing Qin Ba being so eloquent, Tang San couldn't help but smile, this man is quite clever and useful.
"I don't know this Northwind City very well. I need you to help me hire these people. I have something to look for, so I won't lose them in the reward." Tang San said what Qin Ba told him just now. Personal names, these were all selected by Tang San.
Most of these old pedantic scholars were scholars or scholars during the Yong Dynasty. Because of the collapse of the Yong Dynasty, their fame was also in vain. It is good for those who have a small income, and those who do not have a bleak evening scene. Most of them copy books and write for others. Living with couplets, or teaching people to read and literate, is generally not a good life. Tang San is taking advantage of this, promising to get them together in return, and then let them translate the scriptures for himself.
Tang San believes that with the rich bounty, these old scholastics who have a difficult life will definitely be tempted. People die for wealth, birds die for food, the ancient and modern truth remains unchanged.
When the local ruffian Qin Ba heard Tang San's mission, a smile appeared on his face, and he said respectfully, "I understand, little one, may I ask where to gather these people."
Tang San looked left and right, saw a large inn not far from the city gate, pointed to which inn and said, "It's the "Huiren Inn", it looks quite big, it should be able to fit Several people."
Saying that, he took out a few silver dollars and threw them to Qin Ba Dao: "This is your brothers' errand fee, come with me."
Qin Ba immediately waved to the people behind him when he heard the words: "Thank you for your kindness, sir, go and invite those old pedants to me, if you don't want to, you know what to do, don't tell me by coercion and temptation. I didn't teach you."
Qin Ba's men picked up the silver dollar that Tang San threw, and each face showed a gleam of light, and said to Qin Ba and Tang San: "Boss and uncle, don't worry, we understand."
Qin Ba waved his hand when he heard the words: "Come on, I missed the matter of the uncle, I will slap you all to death."
Tang San looked at Qin Ba, nodded and said, "Yes, it seems that your subordinates are quite obedient, let's go."
After saying that, he ignored Qin Ba and walked straight to the "Huimin Inn", but Qin Ba immediately followed him, came to Tang San, led the way for Tang San like a servant, knocked on Huimin. The door of the inn.
Dangdang
It was already ten in the evening. There were almost no people on the street. The door of the inn was closed early. Qin Ba's knock on the door was very harsh, which immediately attracted attention.
Only heard the voice of a guy shouting: "Come here."
bang
The door opened, and a clever head stretched out, rubbing his sleepy eyes, looking at Qin Ba who was knocking on the door, a look of disgust suddenly appeared on his impatient face: "Qin Ba, how dare you Just knock on the door, I don't know who owns the Huimin Inn, and you dare to come to beat the autumn wind, you will be impatient."
Qin Ba looked embarrassed when he heard the words, but immediately said boldly: "I'm a flatterer, your **** is really stinky, I'm not here to fight the autumn wind, it's this uncle who wants to live in the store, I'm just working for him, hurry up Open the door and startle the distinguished guests, you can't afford to be guilty."
The little servant who was called a sycophant heard the words, and only then did he see Tang San behind Qin Ba. Seeing the other party's samurai uniform with extraordinary temperament, he immediately straightened his face, opened the door and said respectfully, "This guest officer, please, just now. The villain didn't see the guest officer, if it's rude, please treat the guest officer Haihan."
Looking at the polite and polite servant, Tang San felt a little surprised. He didn't expect that the servant in this Huimin Inn was full of a poignant aura when he spoke, and he treated himself and Qin Ba completely. There are two attitudes. I can't help expressing admiration for the owner of this inn. A servant can be so good. It seems that this inn will definitely not be too bad in North Wind City.
Tang San didn't care about the servant's apology, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, lead the way."
The servant led the way, Qin Ba led the way in front of Tang San, Tang San followed slowly, and the three quickly disappeared at the entrance of Huimin Inn, while Qin Ba's three men were already running towards the homes of some desolate old scholars in Beifeng City. go with.
A local ruffian quickly arrived at the door of a dilapidated house, knocked on the door quickly, and said in a loud voice, "Old man Xie, open the door quickly."
After a while, a tired voice sounded: "Who is it?"
clack
The door opened, and an old man with white hair opened the door. He looked fifty or sixty years old, with a pale face and malnourished appearance. He was wearing a jacket from the Yong Dynasty. Although it was worn out, it was clean. Not decadent old man.
There was a trace of exhaustion in his eyes. He was cooking dinner after a hard day out. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door and he had to stop what he was doing.
Looking at the ruffian in front of him, old man Xie frowned. He knew that this person was one of a group of ruffians at the gate of Beifeng City. lightnovelpub.net~ I sighed in my heart, now it is no longer a yong dynasty, there is no imperial court, they used to have the privilege of raising people and talents, and now not only three meals a day, but even a local ruffian dares to bully them.
Old Man Xie knew that it was a blessing or a curse, and that there was no way to avoid it. He looked at the ruffian with clear eyes and said, "What is the matter with me, my brother, I don't seem to know my brother."
The local ruffian is rough, but he didn't see what Old Man Xie was thinking, he laughed loudly on his face: "Old Man Xie, you are lucky, now there is an uncle, and I want you old pedants to help him do something, after the matter is done. , but there are a lot of rewards, enough for your coffin book."
When old man Xie heard this, he secretly said in his heart: "I'm looking for our old men to help with things, and I don't know who they are, but I have nothing to plot against. The other party definitely doesn't want to harm us, and it seems to be paid. Today's job as a teacher in Wang's family is not enough. It's over. If I don't have any income in a few days, I'll have to drink the northwest wind. The world is getting worse and worse. Recently, the price of food has also risen. Maybe I should try this sudden business. At least there are people who eat food these days. Fix it for me."
With a calculation in mind, old man Xie looked at the local ruffian and said, "What you said is true."
Hearing this, the local ruffian laughed and said, "Of course it's true. Look at what this is, two silver dollars. I just ran an errand, and they gave me two silver dollars. This is a big deal."
