Chapter 6: A Gust of Wind & Greeting Gifts

Chen's Restaurant

Private room on the second floor

Huang Dahu carried the teapot and personally filled Yan Kui with water, Yan Kui bowed slightly to avoid salute, Huang Dahu beckoned Yan Kui to sit down, and gently twisted the black beard under his chin with his right hand.

"Brother, the young militia is just a trivial matter, pointing to these farmers to fight for us is a pipe dream, the real wealth of our brothers is still tied to your brother."

Yan Kui touched the big hand of the tea cup for a moment, his eyes flashed, but his rough face showed a little dazed and puzzled.

"What do you mean by that, brother?"

The corners of Huang Dahu's eyes twitched slightly, it was not the first time he had dealt with Yan Kui, from the initial-for-tat, to the later handshake and peace, and now the embarrassment, he did not take advantage of this "virtuous brother" who looked like a reckless man and was actually a bearskin fox.

His words just now were not vague, he guaranteed with his life that Yan Kui definitely understood what he meant, and now he is pretending to be confused, just waiting for himself to confess.

Gritting his teeth, Huang Dahu looked at Yan Kui with a solemn look in his eyes: "Our brother is not an outsider, and my brother doesn't say those words that fool outsiders, I have been in the position of Qingyuan County Lieutenant for several years, and my qualifications have long been enough, but I have no merits to get my hands on, so I have not been able to be promoted."

This time, the imperial court is determined to suppress the bandits, which is a good opportunity for my brother, as long as he can make one or two military exploits, he will be promoted to the seventh rank in the near future.

It's just that the Chongshan bandits have always been vicious, and they are really a difficult bone to gnaw, and my brother knows his own catties, and if he wants to tear two pieces of meat on this bone, I am afraid that he will have to rely on his brother's bravery. ”

Speaking of this, Huang Dahu paused for a moment, looked at Yan Kui, who had been silent and listening quietly in front of him, couldn't help but show a wry smile, and finally said his weight.

"I know that with my brother's ability, I will never be satisfied in the market, I have not had much opportunity before, but now it is a good time for my brother to show his ambitions.

Brother is not talented, this time he is also a recommended person, to help his brother introduce Hua Xianzun, the county is now thinking about the unscrupulous general, with the brother's fierce posture, it will definitely make the adults happy. ”

………

It's done.

Yan Kui was waiting for Huang Dahu's words.

From when Huang Dahu mentioned to him the matter of the imperial court's suppression of bandits, Yan Kui saw that he could take advantage of this opportunity to enter the office, and then as he expected, Huang Dahu, who wanted to get military merits, was afraid of the viciousness of the Chongshan bandits, so he wanted to pull him, the first good man in Qingyuan, out of the mountain, and even did not hesitate to recommend him to the new county order as a condition.

You must know that Huang Dahu has always been thinking about taking Yan Kui under his command, but Yan Kui doesn't look down on him and reacts mediocrely, but Huang Dahu has never given up this thought.

This time, he was able to recommend Yan Kui to Huaxian Ling, which was tantamount to giving his "beloved general" to others, which shows how Huang County Lieutenant can be persistent in the promotion of military merits.

However, this is a good thing for Yan Kui, don't look at his brave reputation spread all over Qingyuan, but most of them have influence on the folk and green forest roads, for the government, he is just a butcher with some courage and fame.

Hua County Order, a new county order, does not understand Yan Kui's details, and no matter how short of manpower is under his hands, he will not bend his knot to invite a butcher who kills pigs.

But with Huang Dahu's recommendation, it's different, no matter what, Huang County Lieutenant is also the third-in-command of the county government, and his words still have a certain weight in Huaxian Ling, and with his strong recommendation, Yan Kui's status in Huaxian Ling's heart will be completely different.

…………

The words have already explained that Huang and Yan tacitly toasted each other with a cup of tea, which can be regarded as a covenant.

Then, Huang Dahu asked Yan Kui to go back and wait for the news, saying that if nothing else, within three days, the new parent official should summon Yan Kui.

Bidding farewell to Huang Dahu outside the restaurant, Yan Kui walked back to Huashi Street, and as soon as he stepped into the door of the butcher shop, he saw Liuzi greeted him anxiously.

"Boss, something happened, just now the third master came to you and said that your cousin was kidnapped by a bandit."

"Huh?"

Yan Kui's temples on both sides were bulging, and his face was silent. asked in a deep voice, "Where is the third child in my family?" ”

"In the backyard."

The sixth son hurriedly led the way, Yan Kui strode behind, the two came to the living room in the backyard of the butcher shop one after the other, as soon as Yan Kui entered the door, a half-grown young man who was sitting inside saw his figure and immediately stood up in surprise.

"Second brother."

Yan Kui looked at his own brother Yan Xiong in front of him, waved him to sit down, and asked directly with a frown: "Third brother, I just heard from the sixth son that my cousin was kidnapped by a bandit, what's the matter." ”

Hearing Yan Kui's question, Yan Xiong, who was full of joy just now because he saw his second brother, had a sad cloud on his green face.

"It's Jiang Zi, didn't Jiang Zi pass the county test in our county before, and then somehow this matter reached the ears of a gust of wind in Hungry Dog Slope, this guy felt that Jiang Zi was talented and learned, so he took someone down the mountain to tie Jiang Zi, saying that he wanted Jiang Zi to be his military advisor.

Second brother, our father came back from the field to know the news, so he didn't carry a hoe to find the gust of wind desperately, but fortunately he was stopped by the eldest brother and his mother, and then my father asked me to come to the city to find you, so that you can find a way to rescue Jiangzi. ”

Yan Xiong said, then looked at Yan Kui with a blank eye, hoping that the second brother, who was the pillar of his family, would give him an idea on this matter.

………

"A gust of wind ......"

At this time, Yan Kui, who was pinned on high hopes by his third brother, chanted these three words in his mouth, and silently recalled the details of this person in his heart.

A gust of wind, whose real name is Ji Ruilong, is a native of Tong'an Mansion, who was originally born as a snitch, and is engaged in sliding doors and picking locks, burglaries and property sales, mostly mixed in the Tongfu City and Youxian area.

Because of his high level of business, all the people he "patronized" were like a gust of wind, and there was nothing left, so he was called a gust of wind by a group of thieves.

Originally, this guy mixed well in Fucheng, but because he accidentally bumped into the daughter of the main family on the way to commit a crime, and saw that the family was beautiful, he became lustful, and the burglary turned into picking flowers and stealing incense.

After that, it was also his fate, he encountered a hard stubble, this time the bitter master has a lot of official background, a seizure document, let a gust of wind turn into a smoke, escaped from the city, hid in Chongshan, and did not dare to show up for a few years.

It wasn't until the wind quieted down later that this guy summoned more than a dozen rogue thieves to come to the hungry dog slope near the left of Daliu Village and fell into the grass.

Because, with a case record on his back, this guy didn't dare to make any big moves, and on weekdays, he either robbed a passing merchant and passer-by, or he would fight with a few villages under the mountain in the autumn breeze and make a small fuss, and the government and local green forest people did not take him seriously.

This time, I don't know how this gust of wind was blinded by lard, and I actually kidnapped my cousin, it was really an old birthday star who hanged himself - I think my life is long.

When Yan Kui thought of this, his eyes couldn't help but glow with a fierce light, and then his heart moved, the size of this gust of wind is also a bandit, if he uses his head to give the flower county order a greeting gift, can he add a little more impression to this future boss............
