Chapter 94: Recruiting Recruits
"I want to go to the border to gain knowledge. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info "Qingluan eats vegetables, and he makes such an answer without being salty or light."
The shopkeeper was a little surprised, could it be that this boy is looking for death? He persuaded: "Childe, this pass is a dangerous place, ordinary people are not in a hurry to avoid fear, how can anyone want to go to the border pass, I advise Childe to give up this idea." ”
Qingluan smiled and didn't answer, the shopkeeper behind the counter came out, blew away the shopkeeper, stood on the side of Qingluan's left hand, and asked, "Childe is going to the border?" ”
Qingluan looked up at the shopkeeper, nodded and said, "Isn't the shopkeeper also trying to persuade me?" The shopkeeper shook his head and replied: "This side of the pass has always only heard its sound and not seen its shape, where do we little people know where it is." ”
"Oh? Is it? ”
"yes." The shopkeeper looked thoughtful, Qingluan smiled secretly in his heart, grabbed the five taels of silver on the table, stuffed it to the shopkeeper and said: "Looking at the shopkeeper's appearance, he knows how to go to the border. The shopkeeper smiled happily, quickly put the silver in his arms, and said, "I heard that the big families in the town have recently received a conscription order, maybe you can try your luck somewhere." ”
Qingluan asked again about the specific location of the big household in the town, and waved his hand to let the shopkeeper leave, the shopkeeper returned to the back of the counter with five taels of silver in his arms, and the shopkeeper who was not far from him had red eyes, secretly thinking that he had known that there was such a good thing, so why did he dissuade this son? What a waste of such a good opportunity to make money.
After Qingluan finished eating, he threw down another ingot of five taels of silver, got up and left.
Along the only carriage road in the town, Qingluan walked to the position of the shopkeeper, found a tea shop in the middle and drank two bowls of tea, listened to the idle dragon gate array for a while, and finally walked to a small mansion of the big family, it is estimated that it is not even a third of the Qing family's house, and there are two listless subordinates standing in front of the door, which can be regarded as guards.
"Two brothers, I want to visit Master Gao, I wonder if you can introduce you?"
The two subordinates guarding the door made a lot of Qingluan, probably thinking that this person had nothing to squeeze, and drove away a little impatiently: "My master is upset, where is there any leisure to care about you such a stinky beggar, get out of here!" ”
The troubles in the mouth, Qingluan probably also knew seven or eight points in the tea shop in the town, saying that Master Gao has two sons, and their talents are not bad, originally he was counting on his two sons to go to a slightly larger city, find a school to study for two years, and then come back to glorify his ancestors, but he didn't want to just a few days ago, a holy decree came down, and his two sons were recruited to fight at the border pass, which suddenly made his little careful thinking come to naught.
"You go and tell Master Gao that I have a way for him to keep a son."
The two subordinates were upset and irritable, the most annoying of this kind of person who had no ability but wanted to be a big-headed ghost, the two of them came down to push and shove Qingluan, and said: "Don't you understand what I said, don't leave, be careful that I bombard you away!" ”
Qingluan would not be familiar with these two nobodies, but he would not miss this opportunity to go to the border pass, his body qi was agitated, and as soon as he exerted his strength, his figure entered the Gao family in a flash.
The two subordinates who were pushing one in the air, almost stumbled and fell, only to feel a gust of wind blowing, the person in front of him has disappeared, think carefully, thought that he had met a fairy, frightened and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, for a long time to see that God did not lose his temper, then he dared to return to the door of the mansion tremblingly.
Qingluan entered the mansion, he still has a certain understanding of the layout of this kind of mansion, the front two sides are generally occupied by some family maids, after the level of the family maids is high, there will be a separate room, and the head of the family, Master Gao, naturally lives in the middle of the house in the back.
According to this line of thought, it was not difficult for him to find Master Gao's residence, just two steps away, and he arrived there.
During the day, for the sake of lighting, the door of Master Gao's room was not closed, he sat quietly on the chair, his brows furrowed, presumably he could not find a solution to the current situation anyway.
His two sons stood beside him on the left and right, and the expressions of the two sons were also different, one indifferent and the other sad.
Qingluan walked in, stood at the door, and arched his hand: "Master Gao." ”
The three people in the house looked at it at the same time, Master Gao was a little unhappy, and secretly cursed the two gatekeepers, strangers didn't know when they came in, and the two gatekeepers would look good.
"Master Gao doesn't have to embarrass those two gatekeepers, they have no choice."
Master Gao's mind was seen through by Qingluan at a glance, and he also glanced at Qingluan, although he broke in without permission, he could feel that the son in front of him had no killing intent, and asked calmly: "I don't know what the son has to teach Gao?" ”
The two sons behind him have some talents, and their cultivation has also reached the third realm, and they can be regarded as invincible in such a small town, protecting Master Gao from left to right, and looking at the young man of unknown origin in front of him vigilantly.
"Don't be nervous, I didn't come here with any malice, I just came here to solve the problem." Qingluan always had a smile on her face, trying to make the atmosphere not awkward.
The son on the right of Master Gao is called Gao Dahai, he looked up and down at the plainly dressed boy in front of him, and said with a little mockery: "What can you help my Gao family solve, and what can you solve besides my Gao family's affairs?" Although the meaning of the two sentences is the same, this reflects Gao Dahai's unwillingness to cut Qingluan.
Qingluan was not annoyed, and said very indifferently: "Solve the matter of conscription ~ soldiers for you." ”
The three of the Gao family's father and son were stunned for a moment, and then Gao Dahai accused him with some anger: "Do you want my Gao family's father and son to make a fuss, beware that I will directly abolish you!" ”
Master Gao and his son on his left, Gao Dakuan, were not so irritable, Master Gao restrained Gao Dahai, and then asked Qingluan: "I would like to listen to the son's guidance." "He doesn't really give up hope, but it's always right to listen to something.
Qingluan was not polite to them, and walked to sit down opposite Master Gao, because he drank two bowls of tea when he came, so he didn't drive the teapot in front of Master Gao.
"I thought, since Master Gao is unwilling to send his two sons to the border pass, and I want to go to the border pass, why don't you let me replace a place, so that at least you can keep one son." Qingluan said.
In fact, they have also thought of this idea, but his two sons are talented in the town except for their names, where to find a person who is not much different from the talent of his two sons?
Gao Dahai sneered: "You are also worthy, do you have the talent of our two brothers?!" When he said this, Master Gao and Gao Dakuan did not speak, which was considered acquiescence.
"It's a little bit worse, but it's not too much, I don't believe that Brother Gao can try." Qingluan said a little embarrassed.
Master Gao sighed and said, "Son, don't let us have fun, the royal family's edict doesn't dare to disobey at will, otherwise there will be a catastrophe." ”
Qingluan laughed twice, and said half-jokingly: "Actually, if the two sons go to the border, won't it be the same disaster for the Gao family?" It's just a matter of time. ”
Master Gao knew that Qingluan was telling the truth, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while, and he was in a dilemma.
He stared at the son-in-law in front of him who claimed to be similar to his two sons, and his heart was broken, hoping that he could agree to this son's suggestion with a ruthless heart, but in the end he still couldn't handle it.
"Master Gao doesn't need to answer me in a hurry, anyway, there are still a few days to go to the border gate, you can think about it, and come to me after thinking about it." Qingluan didn't ask the three people on the other side to send him off, so he got up and left, and before he went out, he said again: "I live in the Fenglaiyi inn at the entrance of the town." ”
The father and son of the Gao family looked at the back of the son's brother leaving, and each thought in his heart.
Gao Dakuan is naturally reluctant to go to the dangerous border pass, although this family is not considered to be rich in food and clothing, but at least it is worry-free, happy and happy.
Gao Dahai was different, he wanted to go to the border pass to see it, and when he heard that he was recruited to go to the border pass, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep for several days.
The old man of the Gao family naturally thinks more about how to keep the big and small foundation of the Gao family, so as not to let it decline in his hands.
…………………………
"Guest officer, is the Gao family going well?" Qingluan returned to Youfeng Laiyi, and the shopkeeper came up enthusiastically to ask, he remembered such a big money owner very clearly.
Qingluan smiled, didn't answer the shopkeeper's inquiry, just took out ten taels of silver and threw it on the counter, and said, "Prepare an upper room for me, I will stay for a few days."
The shopkeeper who has long been in business immediately guessed that today's trip must not be smooth, maybe it is not necessarily a wall, but as a businessman, more things are better than less things He still understands, he walked to the shopkeeper who now has no business and is crawling on the table to nap, and slapped the shopkeeper on the head and reprimanded: "Sleep, sleep, sleep, you know to sleep in a day, the guests have come to the door, and you don't want to lead the guest officer to the best room." ”
The shopkeeper was trained by the shopkeeper, and he was in a bad mood, and he glanced at the guest who said the shopkeeper with some complaints, only to find that the guest was the gold owner who rewarded the shopkeeper with five taels of silver.
Sure enough, when he brought Brother Gongzi to the room, Brother Gongzi really gave him a little scattered silver, although it was much less than the five taels of silver from the shopkeeper, but this was enough silver equivalent to his salary for one or two months, and it was enough for him to be happy for a while.
He wanted to be happy to handle this matter well, and Brother Gongzi would give him a reward, but he didn't have to.
