Although Ye Chen didn't expect the purpose of his trip, he was not so surprised.

A month ago, he and Qin Xiaoqin had talked about the future development of the Anjiang Society, and His Majesty the Emperor's expectations for him and the Anjiang Society were obviously not as simple as just being a big gang in Annan Province, but also involving intelligence in the future. This is also the main reason for Ye Chen's recent troubles, no matter how hard he works, his age is here, and his current knowledge and experience are far from enough to support the rivers and lakes of Annan Province alone. And he has also thought about the role of the master set up by other gangs, but there has been no suitable candidate in his heart. Huangfu Leng gave him a well-trained team, gave him a lot of money for development, and even helped him take care of his official relationships. If he is cheeky to ask for a master now, Ye Chen feels that he will inevitably make Huangfu Leng disappointed in him.

Ye Chen thought of this, and probably had Pu in his heart, but the person in front of him today was the third time he had seen him, and he only said three times, and he was not absolutely sure that Ye Chen himself did not dare to solicit indiscriminately. The reason why Anjiang Club has not recruited people so far is also considered in this regard, and even the shopkeepers of several shops that Chen Bing found are also cautious and cautious.

Facing Xu Banxian's sudden question, Ye Chen just smiled and said, "If I say that there is no shortage, what will you do?" ”

"You won't!" Xu Banxian softened his expression, and seemed to have concluded that Ye Chen would definitely give him this opportunity.

"How can you be so sure I'll agree to your joining? And I don't know anything about you! Ye Chen said curiously.

"The more contact you have, the better you know." Xu Banxian said unhurriedly, it seemed that he was not here to beg for help now, but Ye Chen had become passive.

Ye Chen, who was originally calm, was also a little surprised at this time, this person's composure was not forced, and he had the momentum of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him.

"Welcome to join us in the Anjiang Club!" Ye Chen got up and smiled. Xu Banxian was ecstatic in his heart, but the surface was still as calm as water. Ye Chen noticed the slightest emotional fluctuation in him, but he was even more amazed by his speed and ability to suppress his inner emotions, which was not something that ordinary people could do, even Qin Xiaoqin, the Inspector of the Thousand Households, might not be able to be as quiet as Xu Banxian.

Ye Chen learned through Xu Banxian's description that he was not surnamed Xu, his surname was Xu, his name was Houfei, and he was a person who believed in Taoism. In the early years, he offended the powerful because of some things, and he couldn't get along in Gu Xindao, so he had to leave his hometown and go to Annan Province to eat. Xu Houfei has also endured all the hardships over the years, he has been a letter-writing gentleman, he has also run through the hall, and even washed the clothes of Yingying Yanyan in the brothel, but he was finally dissatisfied with his situation and vowed to get ahead.

Ye Chen was very satisfied with Xu Houfei's frank meeting, at least he did not hide that he came to the Anjiang Association because of poverty, nor did he hide that he fled to Annan Province to make a living in his hometown because he offended the powerful, this kind of sign shows that at least this person is quite open.

Ye Chen was very curious about what kind of big man Xu Houfei had offended, so that he couldn't even stay with the entire Gu Xindao.

As if seeing Ye Chen's worries, Xu Houfei sat up straight, and did not intend to hide these things, so he poured beans into a bamboo tube of 1510, and Ye Chen was deeply surprised when he heard it.

It turned out that Xu Houfei was originally a guest in the Jingwen Palace, where Gu Xindao was fiefdom. Before entering the palace, the talented Xu Houfei was deeply valued by King Jingwen. Just when Xu Houfei was full of pride, something unexpected happened to him.

One day at the family banquet, King Jingwen invited several big guests from the palace to bring their families to participate in the banquet. Just when the people were drinking, the princess's younger brother Li Junhai came to toast, the two had never intersected, but they reached out and didn't hit the smiling person, Xu Houfei also drank with him. During the banquet, Xu Houfei found that this Li Junhai was always staring at his wife, so his face was unhappy, and Li Junhai left boringly. thought that this was the end of the matter, but after the family banquet, Xu Houfei found that his wife was always mysterious, and the thoughtful Xu Houfei secretly followed his wife, and sure enough, he found out that his wife had an adulterous affair with Li Junhai. blamed himself for seeing the wrong person at the beginning, Xu Houfei, who was deeply involved in scheming, rarely went home, and he cared even less about his wife, and this kind of thing made him unable to accept the reality for a while.

But the matter did not end there, and a letter of resignation could not relieve the anger in Xu Houfei's heart. A sack and a wooden stick, Li Junhai let Xu Houfei, who was not good at fighting, beat him with a stick, causing him to lie in bed for four months, and he still has one leg walking with a limp. When the matter reached the palace, King Jingwen did not come forward to protect his big guest, but the princess ordered the servants to beat Xu Houfei and locked him up.

While telling his experience, Xu Houfei secretly observed the change in Ye Chen's expression, because in the face of a prince in Huaguo, Xu Houfei was not sure if the man sitting opposite would really dare to accept him!

Ye Chen looked at the half-immortal in front of him, thought about it for a long time, and weighed all factors, and finally decided to leave this Xu Houfei. The reason is very simple, an extraordinary person who can be a great guest in the Jingwen Palace, and the current state of Anjiang will very much need a strategist, plan and then act! And in the face of such a big power as Jingwen Palace, Ye Chen was not afraid at all, because behind him was His Majesty the current emperor, Zhu Chengyuan!

Ye Chen looked at Xu Houfei, who was a little cramped, and smiled: "Where did you go with your composure just now?" King Jingwen is terrible, but I, Ye Chen, am not a good man and a woman, since I said that you are welcome to join, I will not change again, unless you lie! ”

Xu Houfei, who was relieved, immediately got up and bowed deeply to the young man in front of him, he didn't believe that the young man in front of him was an impulsive character, otherwise he would not have taken An Jianghui to gain a firm foothold in Annan Road in just half a year.

Ye Chen often listened to the storyteller in the teahouse tell the example of Corporal Lixian, and quickly got up and rushed to Xu Houfei's side as described by the storyteller, holding Xu Houfei's forearm with both hands and saying with a smile: "In the future, Anjiang will have to rely on Mr. to help him, and please don't be stingy with his talent!" ”

I don't know if it's a common problem of readers, Xu Houfei, who met Bole, suddenly had tears in his eyes and couldn't cry, maybe because of the ups and downs of these years, or maybe because he found a home for his talent.

Xu Houfei broke free of Ye Chen's hands, took a step back, clasped his hands into fists and bowed again: "In this body, I, Xu Houfei, will do my best to serve my son and Anjianghui!" ”
