Section 26 Yangcheng Secret Sentinel
From the very beginning, the Executive Committee has focused on the two children of the Gao family. Once an adult's perception is formed, it is difficult to change it. Children and adolescents, by contrast, have an active mind, a natural contempt for authority, are easily struck by novelties, and are adventurous and eager to prove that they are worthy of being inferior to adultsβall of which can be exploited by the traverser.
Each time they crossed they spent a lot of time with the two children to observe their personality abilities. Compared to Colgate, the older brother of the boy is more valuable - the girl has a small social range and rarely has the opportunity to show up. The elder brother is younger, and the conceptual character is much more malleable than the elder sister.
The senior brother is smart and smart, Xiao Zishan taught him some bookkeeping and arithmetic, all of which can be taught as soon as he is taught, and sometimes Wen Desi specially asks him to do a few small things, and he can also do it properly. I always take some modern candy snacks back to share with my sister, which shows that my character is not greedy or alone, and I am a responsible person.
When I entered the study, I saw that the two sisters and brothers were kneeling upright on the ground. Bei Wei raised his eyebrows, as if he was about to get angry, Wen Desi knew that he couldn't see this, so he hurriedly stopped.
"Get up, what are you doing kneeling here for no reason, when we are the City God's Master?" Wen Deji smiled slightly and raised his hand.
"Please forgive the mothers of the minions." The two children did not get up, and kowtowed together in unison.
"As I have said before, he who does not know is not guilty," said Vandehei, "and arise all of you." β
"Thank you, sir." The two sisters and brothers glanced at each other, their faces were happy, and they hurriedly stood up.
"Colgate, you go out first, and you have something to say to Brother Gao."
"The slave knows." Colgate complied briskly and withdrew. Bei Wei stood up, walked to the window, and saw that Colgate had retreated, so he nodded.
Xiao Zishan asked, "Are you familiar with Guangzhou City?" β
"Familiar, in the past, people in the mansion often sent me to run errands and give a few pennies at a time."
"I asked you those friends that still play together a lot?"
"A few of them were picked on errands, and the others stayed at home and had nothing to do, and often asked me out to play."
"Is there anyone you can rely on?"
Senior brother raised his head suddenly: "The master wants to take in the family?" β
Sure enough, it was a smart child, Xiao Zishan nodded secretly.
"Not right now," he said deliberately vividly, "it's not the same thing as choosing a family, but it has something to do with it." β
"Then please show me what kind of person you want."
"I want a few children who are familiar with the city of Guangzhou, and bring the news and travel information on the street every day," Xiao Zishan told him the market of which commodities he wanted according to the content of the haode discussed in advance.
"This is easy, go to the teahouses of various walks of life and look at the water signs."
"Compile all these things into a book every day, and do it according to the bookkeeping method I taught you."
"The little one understands."
"You'll be given an extra tael of silver every month as the cost of the event. People are chosen by you, but you can choose well, unreliable, people who love to talk nonsense don't want to. In addition, the news of the Gao family should always be paid attention to. Xiao Zishan stared at his eyes tightly, "Don't remember anything, let's talk about it when we come." β
Xiao Zishan said a word, and the senior brother responded, he saw that the boy's face was a little frightened, but the excitement was overflowing.
"Do you have friends in the mansion?"
"Yes, Uncle Chang, my father's brother-in-law. Doing chores in the house. "I said a lot, this Gao Chang is his father's fellow villager, and he has been in the house for six or seven years. He has a lot of strength and a little martial arts, he could have picked a family, but he spoke too straight, and he didn't have the money to be filial to take care of things, so he didn't want to see him, and he couldn't even match a rough girl when he was twenty-five or six.
"Is it a single one?"
"Yes, but Uncle Chang is very open and doesn't complain."
A few people glanced at each other, this is a suitable development object: people who are unwilling in the original unit will be happy to change jobs, and they are upright and scheming, and they don't like to complain, which means that this person has a peaceful mentality, and Zuihou has great strength and martial arts are also useful.
Of course, this was all said by his nephew, and there was something beautiful about it. But now is the time to employ people, so you don't need to pick too finely. Besides, whether people are suitable or not, you have to use them to know.
"Do you want to pass Uncle Chang over? He shouldn't have a margin today. β
"Okay, you go and invite him."
"I'll just say that Daddy invited him to drink, and he will come."
With such a high understanding, you don't need to tell you to keep it secret, and you can understand it in your heart. However, this kid is so smart, if he doesn't control it well in the future, it will be a disaster. Xiao Zishan's thoughts have always been darker.
After a while, Gao Chang came, and came to kowtow under the introduction of his senior brother. Judging from his small stature, he has a strong physique, and his movements between his walking and demeanor are quite flexible.
Xiao Zishan only asked about his background and his errand in the Gao family.
ββ¦β¦ He has been working as a handyman in the outer house for six years. "Exalted.
"I see that you are good-looking, and your skills are not bad. How do you keep working as a handyman? β
"The little ones are clumsy by nature and can't speak, so they have been working as handymen."
"Have you ever had a wife?"
"No ......," Gao Chang blushed, "I'm too poor, and no woman is willing to follow me." β
"You have been on an errand for their family all these years, and the Gao family will not give you a maid?"
"It's really a villain who is too poor, and I'm afraid I can't keep it if I match a woman."
Xiao Zishan thought that this person was good, the main family had no grace to him, and he would not say a bad word about the main family in front of outsiders.
"How is the Gao family treating you?"
"A small slave, the master's family gives clothes and food, and it is a grace." Speak neither humbly nor arrogantly, advance and retreat freely.
Xiao Zishan glanced at Bei Wei, the former scout jumped up violently, pushed hard, Gao Chang was caught off guard, fell backwards violently, and retreated seven or eight steps before zhanzhu. Although his face was full of surprise, he only took off his clothes and continued to stand with his hands down.
Bei Wei nodded, this person's lower plate is very stable, and he really has kung fu.
"Do you know martial arts?" Xiao Zishan asked.
"The kung fu in the countryside has practiced self-defense and fitness, which makes the old men laugh."
Xiao Zishan nodded, didn't ask anything more, and asked his senior brother to send him out for dinner.
The senior brother withdrew, and the result of this interview was that everyone was relatively satisfied, but how to recruit this person over had to find another way. Several people discussed the work to be carried out in the city of Guangzhou. At present, they have developed the first intelligence network, and the role of this intelligence network is not to collect any intelligence, but to see if the senior brother is suitable for such a role, and it can also confirm whether the Gao family will be loyal.
If Gao Qing stubbornly continues to be Master Gao's spy, then the next step is to find a new person as soon as possible.
"I think Gao Qing's attitude towards Master Gao is also ambiguous." Bei Wei said, "Looking at the appearance of his wife and children, it doesn't look like he is dead." β
"I agree with that." Wen Deji nodded, "Gao Qing is just afraid of the exalted power, in fact, he doesn't have much loyalty to this old master. β
"Actually, he is more afraid of following us from his homeland, and we now have the title of an Australian maritime merchant. He is not from the land of Guangdong and Fujian, where he is accustomed to going out to the sea. β
"Let's fight for his wife and children first, and after today, he will think about it before he reports in the future."
"Will he still go?"
"I think it will, but a lot less. Gao Qing is timid and has no opinions, the old master's prestige is still there, and he still has the idea of leaving a way back, and if he doesn't get out of the scope of influence of the exaltation, this person can't be trusted. β
"We want to have our own house as soon as possible."
"Yes, at the moment, we are trying to facilitate trade, but before Zuihou crosses once, we must get a new house."
"Brother Gao is good, but it's a pity that it's a child. You can't do such things as buying a house or a slave. β
"What about Gao Chang......"
"Someone!" Bei Wei suddenly shouted, flashed to the window, picked up a stone in the bonsai and flew out. There was a muffled noise outside. Seems to hit something.
The three city otaku were panicked for a while, slumped on the chair and didn't dare to come out.
"What's going on?" Wen Deji asked tremblingly.
"There's a dark shadow in the opposite corner of the courtyard." Bei Wei was angry, "It's not dark enough to sneak in and reconnoitre, it's so bold." β
"Eavesdropping?"
"It should be." Bei Wei said, "The route is zigzag down the window. β
"Is it the exalted one?"
"No, there are already ears and eyes here. Our business with him is going so well, there is no need for him to do something like this that would anger us again. β
"Who could that be?"
"I'm afraid it's the ones who have the eyes on him." Xiao Zishan thought of what he said when he gave them the house: "It's just that these strange goods have been listed recently, and I have attracted a lot of attention here." This should be the one who "cares".
Things are getting more and more complicated. Thinking of the restless appearance of Gao Gao today, their minds were a little nervous.
