Chapter 68 Buying a Coming-of-Age Ceremony
Jiu Wentian nodded and said, "That's nature, please rest assured that the city lord." ”
Jiang Fuqing waved his hand and said, "I haven't come back to my senses from last night's incident until now, I'll go get a good night's sleep, you can go." ”
After leaving the gate of the hall, Chief Manager Cao said to Jiu Wentian: "Wentian, as an envoy, there are some things that you have to do with Xiao Lebang, and I may have to bother you to go on a trip these days." ”
"Please make it clear to Mr. Cao, I will do my best. Jiu Wentian said.
Coach Ye glanced at Jiang Qiufang and left very helplessly, as if he had something on his mind, but he refused to say it. Jiu Wentian noticed this, but he was embarrassed to break it, after all, in the position, Coach Ye and Manager Cao are Jiang Fuqing's right-hand men, but in fact, Coach Ye has much less power in his hands than Manager Cao.
Whether it is in life or work, Coach Ye must not be happy, and the sadness and grievances may only be known to him. Moreover, after what happened to Elder Ye Lan last time, Coach Ye also understood Jiang Fuqing's intention to keep him, and then he was even more disappointed.
However, Jiang Fuqing is not the kind of person who snubbs his subordinates, Jiang Fuqing understands that if he wants to lead his soldiers well, he can't let the soldiers be disappointed in the general and have an inferiority complex for himself, but now Jiang Fuqing has not yet carried out psychological enlightenment work for Coach Ye, maybe Jiang Fuqing has no time.
Manager Cao glanced at Ye Yuze's back, took a long breath and said, "Lebang has been running outside all these years, it's time to rest, and this work is just a coming-of-age ceremony to inform the eldest lady, and nothing else is involved." You just took office, there will be more such things in the future, this time you should be familiar with the road and people, don't worry too much, wait for me to hand over everything to you, you just need to be notified one by one. ”
Jiang Qiufang heard that Jiu Wentian was going to work, so he hurriedly asked, "Manager Cao, where are you going?"
"There are four cities in Mingzhou, and it is enough to inform the other three after a long time, and as for the remaining five states, it is good to write to them. Mr. Cao said.
Jiang Qiufang continued to ask, "Then why don't you just notify you by letter?"
Chief Manager Cao shook his head and said: "That's not in accordance with the rules, the four cities in Mingzhou City have excellent friendship, and the major events in each city are notified by the envoys to show their love for this friendship. And in Mingzhou, the envoy also has a very high status, and he will definitely not treat him badly if he goes to Wentian. ”
Jiang Qiufang asked again, "Can I go with me?"
"Only when there is a catastrophe in the city, you need the royal family to go to other cities for help, you are still in the city, Miss. Manager Cao said helplessly: "You can practice your etiquette in the past half a month, I haven't seen a young lady and princess of the city lord's family practice martial arts, if you get to the day of the big grin, you will be embarrassed to the old city." ”
Jiang Qiufang, who was very disappointed, had no choice but to say, "That's okay, I also want to go out for a walk." ”
"After this coming-of-age ceremony, you can discuss going out with the city lord to play, and you can go somewhere else to show your goodwill. Mr. Cao continued.
Jiang Qiufang responded, and then Jiu Wentian said to Jiang Qiufang: "It's okay, I'll leave it to me this time, let's go out together after the coming-of-age ceremony." ”
Then Cao Tianyun also said: "Wentian, I am not an envoy, and naturally I have no identity to go with you, you may be the only one on the road this time, be careful, no one may move you in the city, but outside the city, it is impossible to say, the wilderness is the easiest to encounter some bad people." ”
Jiu Wentian clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back safely." ”
Chief Manager Cao said: "Most of the envoys don't know martial arts, and it's not surprising to bring one or two guards, but Tianyun, your strength is still weak, and the triple martial artist is not a master, and it will be useless to encounter danger." Wen Tian, when you choose two of the city lord's guards to follow you, it can be regarded as a response. ”
Jiu Wentian said: "I'm not used to following others, I already have a candidate, this time let Brother Cao have a good rest, I'll go and inform him first, Mr. Cao, you can prepare things first." ”
"That's the best, but for your safety, if this person is below the five-fold martial artist, forget it. Mr. Cao reminded.
Jiu Wentian nodded, and then ran out after saying goodbye to Jiang Qiufang and Cao Tianyun.
"Miss, if there is nothing wrong, you can go back and rest first, and I will find someone to teach you etiquette in the afternoon. After that, Manager Cao said to Cao Tianyun again: "Tianyun, you come and prepare something with me." ”
At this time, Gu Zhengwen was sitting on a boat by the river, this river has no name, that is, the nameless river that Jiang Fuqing said, it originates from the mountains of the Hundred Beast Forest, the main trunk passes through the south of the ancient city, and finally flows into the "Ancient Sea", which is a source of the Ancient Sea, and the other is the torrent that flows through the end of the world, but in the past hundred years, as the gap between the end of the world has become smaller and smaller, the old sea has gradually shrunk.
Gu Zhengwen was sitting leisurely on the boat at the moment, the boat was also tied to the ancient wood next to him, Gu Zhengwen, who was covering his face with a hat, was thinking about what to eat at noon today, he went to a village yesterday to borrow a steamer and ate steamed fish, and he couldn't borrow it again today. Why don't you eat grilled fish?
Thinking of this, Gu Zhengwen carefully perceived it, and there was no one around, so he got up and took out the golden knife wrapped in his rags and waved it, even if it was separated by several layers of rags, this knife still stirred up a lot of waves in the river, and then some fish flew out along the waves, Gu Zhengwen jumped out directly to catch those fish, and then flicked it on the water and flew back.
Like a fisherman, Gu Zhengwen put the three or five fish on his boat, and then began to sleep, people who didn't know his real identity really thought he was a fisherman. As everyone knows, he can be any profession, and after saying goodbye to Jiu Wentian, he poured vegetables on the street, and when the vegetables were almost sold, he came to be a ferryman, and the ferryman's work was light, but he made little money.
However, Gu Zhengwen has made a lot of money on vegetables, and he can relax a little more these days, and now Gu Zhengwen is already drunk today, because he doesn't want others to know that he is still alive, only by doing some small business, being an ordinary person, and earning a little money enough to eat and drink by himself can Gu Zhengwen get a sense of security.
He doesn't want to go back to those days when he was hunted down by others, he would rather live his own little life than have any connection with those people, he is also the target of being hunted down in Shenzhou, Gu Zhengwen feels that he was born to kill and be killed. He had never had any other feelings, and it wasn't until he met Jiu Wentian, who was chanting poetry in the moonlight that night, that his life later added a touch of color.
Gu Zhengwen couldn't help but show a smile on his face when he thought of Jiu Wentian, he felt that Jiu Wentian was at least one of his friends, and he only had such a friend, but he didn't feel less, but he was very happy, people like him actually had friends. If this matter had spread to the Black Wind Gate, it might have become a joke, like this:
"Hey, I'll tell you a joke. ”
"Don't make a fuss, we're killers, and I won't laugh if you tell the sky. ”
"Gu Zhengwen has a friend. ”
"Hahahaha, what are you talking about?"
Gu Zhengwen, who was stealing music, heard a sound of footsteps, thinking that someone had disturbed his sweet dream, and said directly with some unhappiness: "Don't pick up customers now, if you want to take a boat, it's afternoon!"
"I told you, he has a big temper, he doesn't make money if he has money, this kind of person is really strange, son, you better change someone. An old man's voice reached Gu Zhengwen's ears, but Gu Zhengwen didn't care, but shrunk his body and prepared to take a nap.
Unexpectedly, Jiu Wentian's voice also appeared, "It's okay old man, this is to thank you for showing me the way, you go back, I'll tell him." ”
"Okay, thank you for the reward. ”
As soon as Gu Zhengwen heard Jiu Wentian's voice, he immediately sat up, and the hat fell directly on the boat, Gu Zhengwen stared at Jiu Wentian standing there with wide eyes and said, "You, why are you here?"
Jiu Wentian sat down along Gu Zhengwen's boat and said, "What's the matter, I won't take my job anymore?"
"No," Gu Zhengwen looked a little relieved, and said, "I was still thinking about you just now, and you came directly, just wondering how you found me." ”
Jiu Wentian laughed and said: "It's not simple, I took the money and said to find a middle-aged man in a black coat, and his temper is relatively bad and he doesn't like to talk, I inquired several times before I heard about you, and you still went to sell vegetables?"
"Yes, you have to do everything for your livelihood, since you're here, let's eat something good at noon today. Gu Zhengwen stood up again as he spoke, and then after the knife slashed the water a few times, many animals in the water flew out, and such a small river is also very rich in products, unlike Jiuwen The world in the sky has been salvaged and disappeared.
The boat full of fish, shrimp and crabs or something, I have been saying for a long time that I can't finish eating, Gu Zhengwen thought about it, and put a lot of animals back, and then ran to the ground and said: "You sit here for a while, I'll go find some firewood, and then eat grilled fish." ”
"Okay, let me try Big Brother Gu's craftsmanship. Jiu Wentian said with a smile.
Gu Zhengwen nodded, and then ran to the forest to find some branches, and came back half an hour later with a bunch of branches and trunks. ”
"Okay, I'll help too. ”
