Li Zicheng personally tested the four so-called strange people brought by Wu Ermao, although they were not brilliant, but they were similar to Wu Ermao's dictation, so he temporarily accepted them.

What is the use of their skills, Li Zicheng doesn't know for the time being, but they are better than ordinary people, and when they need to be used, they should be easier than soldiers.

In the evening, Wu Ermao and his party were invited to a banquet at Xihuang Restaurant, and the banquet was not ended until they were all drunk and poured under the table with distilled spirits.

These eight people were temporarily placed in the small hall of the Central Palace, and were taken care of by Li Zicheng's personal soldiers.

After breakfast the next day, Li Zicheng decided to summon them and assign them work, but they couldn't, they just ate for nothing every day, even brothers.

Because of the large number of people, Li Zicheng met with these brothers in the hall of the front office, and he first summoned Bai Lang'er alone.

"Lang'er knocks on the big brother!" Bai Lang'er kowtowed to Li Zicheng respectfully, although he didn't meet Li Zicheng many times, but at last night's banquet, he saw Li Zicheng's methods, whether it was their eldest brother Wu Ermao when they were strongmen, or Shangguan Siyu, a swordsman who wandered the rivers and lakes, they were all obedient in front of Li Zicheng, and the eight people were almost drunk by Li Zicheng alone.

Although they are now dependent on Li Zicheng, unruly people like Wu Ermao and Shangguan Siyu are difficult to let them do this if they don't have a sense of admiration, they have always been happy and hateful, if they have to grovel to Li Zicheng just for this meal, it is impossible.

It is he Bai Lang'er, who is also deeply impressed by what Li Zicheng has done, and the shock of what he saw at this meal is even more wonderful than his thirty years of life.

"Lang'er doesn't need to be polite, get up," Li Zicheng kept looking to the opposite side, "Sit!" ”

He Xiaomi saw Li Zicheng's attitude towards this group of people yesterday, and he didn't need Li Zicheng's orders to serve fragrant tea to Bai Lang'er, although he was the chief flag officer of Li Zicheng's personal soldiers, much more noble than Bai Lang'er's identity, but now Bai Lang'er is not only Li Zicheng's brother, but also Li Zicheng's guest, his personal soldier commander, to put it bluntly, is Li Zicheng's personal guard and internal attendant, however, Li Zicheng is not the emperor, and he doesn't have to take a knife from him.

Bai Lang'er thanked Li Zicheng, and Fang Zai sat down on the opposite side.

Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Brother Lang'er said yesterday that he likes to enrich and stabilize his business, I don't know what specific thoughts he has?" ”

"This ......" Bai Lang'er didn't know what to say for a while, he just didn't want to live a life of licking blood with a knife, Li Zicheng is a soldier, and the positions he can provide should be related to the war, and there doesn't seem to be any smooth business, is it a document recorded in the army?

"Brother Lang'er, there are a lot of positions I can offer," Li Zicheng estimated that Bai Lang'er didn't know his details, and he wouldn't waste time, "There is a guy right now, I don't know if my brother has any intentions?" ”

Bai Lang'er didn't ask in detail, but only arched his hand and said: "As long as the eldest brother thinks it is appropriate, Lang'er will never refuse." ”

"Haha," Li Zicheng laughed, "Then the eldest brother will make the decision for you, and from today on, you will be the director of Xining Glass Factory." ”

"Glass? Director? Bai Lang'er suddenly fell into the mountains, "Big brother, these brothers really haven't heard of it!" ”

"I haven't heard that you can start learning from now," Li Zicheng smiled slightly, and briefly recounted the matters of the glass factory, "Brother Lang'er, your duty is to supervise the work of the craftsmen and provide all convenient conditions. ”

"Big brother, I understand a little," Bai Lang'er's eyes showed a fine light, "This glass factory is like a wine cellar, and I am like the shopkeeper, and the eldest brother is the owner." ”

"Okay, there is understanding," Li Zicheng stretched out his thumb and praised it, "You are worthy of being literate, how about it, are you confident?" ”

"Big brother, I've never been in such an important industry before......"

"What are you afraid of, there is a big brother behind the back," Li Zicheng said about the important role of craftsmen, reminding Bai Lang'er to treat craftsmen well and alleviate their problems outside of production, and finally asked: "How much does Lang'er want to be paid?" ”

"What kind of remuneration does the eldest brother say, as long as the eldest brother gives the brother a mouthful of food, my Bai Lang'er will be satisfied!"

"How's that going to work?" Li Zicheng hopes that Xining Glass Factory will develop in the direction of a real enterprise, and will account independently in the future, and cannot always rely on soldiers # to transport various materials, "Since you are with the eldest brother, the eldest brother has to think about your future, accumulate silver first, and then marry Aunt Fang in the future." ”

"Big Brother ......"

"Lang'er, as long as you sincerely do things for the eldest brother, the eldest brother will not treat you badly," Li Zicheng thought for a while and said, "In addition to the daily meal, the other is one or two silver per month!" ”

"One or two?" Bai Lang'er was shocked, one or two pieces of silver, you can buy two stones of grain, and the eldest brother provides additional meals, if you are more frugal, these are all deposits, and shouted urgently: "Big brother, you can't ...... it."

Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Although one or two pieces of silver are not comparable to the craftsmen who work day and night, they are also comparable to the chief flag officer in the army, the eldest brother just hopes that the Lang'er brothers will sincerely do things for the eldest brother in the future!" ”

"Big brother!" Bai Lang'er hurriedly left his seat and bowed to the ground, "I, Bai Lang'er, am half-hearted and betrayed my eldest brother, and after that, there will be thunder and thunder, and I will not die well!" ”

"Lang'er, get up," Li Zicheng grabbed his arm and sent him back to the seat, "Big brother trusts you, so he will give you such an important job, big brother is just worried that my brother will see more silver in the future, and it is inevitable that he will move other thoughts, in case ...... Remember your vows today, and it will be good for you in the future! ”

"Yes, big brother!"

Li Zicheng got up and patted Bai Lang'er on the shoulder, "Lang'er, work hard, if there is anything in the factory that you don't understand, just come and ask the eldest brother, go to the factory in the morning, and familiarize yourself with the environment first." ”

Seeing Bai Lang'er away, Li Zicheng summoned the rest of the brothers, including the four so-called capable people brought by Wu Ermao.

"Knock on Big Brother!"

"Knock on your lord!"

"It's all your own family, don't be polite, sit!" Li Zicheng pointed to the wooden chair opposite, and motioned to He Mi to serve tea.

These brothers, changed their clothes and took a bath, and they were like two people yesterday, and even their spirits have improved a lot, Li Zicheng waited for everyone to sit down, and then smiled: "How is it, have you woken up from the wine?" ”

"Big brother, this wine yesterday was really strong, and I still have a headache...... Wu Ermao gently stroked his temples, and wiped the eye feces from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, "However, don't worry, big brother, if you need anything, the brothers will definitely not make a mistake!" ”

"If you make a mistake, the eldest brother will definitely beat your board," Li Zicheng smiled slightly, "The eldest brother really needs your help." ”

"As long as the eldest brother gives the order, the brothers can set off immediately!" Wu Ermao took the lead, and the brothers were all gearing up, so they only had to use the knife.

Li Zicheng said in a deep voice: "Ermao is so anxious, how can I rest assured that you will do great things?" ”

"Big deal?" Wu Ermao was shocked, could a person like himself still do something big? He said carefully: "Big brother......"

"There are a lot of things, it depends on whether you have the ability or not," Li Zicheng said softly: "If you don't have the ability, the eldest brother can also support you, but if you want to be rich, then don't count on it." ”

"What's the matter with the eldest brother, even if I tell you, I, Wu Ermao, will fight for my life, and I will complete the things that the eldest brother has explained."

The crowd echoed in unison.

"Work is serious, not desperate, if your life is gone, what kind of wealth is there to talk about?" Li Zicheng chuckled and said, "I'm going to set up the Shadowless Gate. ”

Shangguan Siyu asked, "Shadowless Gate?" But the gangs? ”

"I'm not interested in the kind of fighting and killing of gangs in the rivers and lakes, if you need to fight and mobilize the army, it will be wiped out directly," Li Zicheng paused slightly, and said: "From this title, can you hear anything?" ”

"Shadowless...... Is it doing something that others don't know? Assassinate? Shangguan Siyu whispered.

"That's right, it's not right, but Si Yu said that it is at the root," Li Zicheng nodded at Shangguan Si Yu, "The Shadowless Gate, as the name suggests, makes it impossible for others to even catch the shadow, of course, its main role is not to assassinate - at most, occasionally carry out the task of assassination." ”

"My lord, I understand something!" Shangguan Siyu nodded silently.

Wu Ermao thought for a moment and said, "What does Big Brother want us to do?" ”

"You don't have to do anything on weekdays, just protect yourself, if the eldest brother is in need, and then give you a specific task, no matter what means you use, the eldest brother can complete the task."

"Jin Yiwei?" Black Egg whispered.

"Unlike Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei can take people at will, you can't, you just secretly complete the tasks assigned by the eldest brother, and you can't let others see the clues, you, do you understand what I mean?"

Wu Ermao and Shangguan Siyu nodded first, and then everyone nodded fiercely, lest the eldest brother say that they were stupid, even Xuan Yang, who had always been not very good at his brain, nodded desperately, and smiled at Li Zicheng.

"Even if the Shadowless Gate is officially established now, and the Ermao brothers are in charge," Li Zicheng continued, fearing that others would not be convinced: "Among you, the Ermao brothers may not be the most outstanding people, but this head of the sect itself should not be held by the most outstanding people - but by the most loyal people, the most outstanding talents, need to be used on the knife edge. ”

"Yes!" The crowd responded in unison.

Wu Ermao got up and bowed in front of Li Zicheng, "Ermao, thank you for your trust, Ermao will definitely live up to your eldest brother's expectations!" ”

"Ermao and get up," Li Zicheng waited for Wu Ermao to sit down, and said: "I have to explain a few words, first of all, keep it secret, you don't disclose your identity for the time being, so as not to increase the difficulty when completing the task in the future." ”

"Yes!"

"I will prepare a mansion for you in Xining, and you can stay in the mansion on weekdays," Li Zicheng glanced at Heidan, "But when you want to complete the task, you are likely to have to travel far away, and I will prepare carrier pigeons for you, and this will be the responsibility of the Hei Dan brothers, and the Hei Dan brothers should be familiar with the nature of the carrier pigeons." ”

"Yes, big brother!"

"You usually have to stay united, and everything is centered on completing the task," Li Zicheng's face turned pale, "If I hear about you tearing each other down, then it's not a matter of food, because you have a secret, even the ends of the world, and I will hunt you down." ”

"We will take your lordship's orders to heart!" Everyone knelt down in front of Li Zicheng.

"Get up," Li Zicheng's gaze turned to the door, "Xiaomi, take the silver!" ”

"Yes, sir!" He Xiaomi's sleeve took out two ingots, a total of one hundred taels, and put them on the square table.

Everyone suddenly stared at each other, surprised, flickering, greedy, grabbing, all kinds of eyes, Li Zicheng coughed, and said: "You may often travel on business, it doesn't hurt to have more silver, the so-called 'poor family is rich', but you must remember that everything is centered on completing the task, and you must not be greedy for a cup and make mistakes!" ”

"Yes, big brother!" On behalf of everyone, Wu Ermao put the silver into his cuffs, "Big brother, what is the task now?" ”

"There's a mission right now, even if it's a test for you!" Li Zicheng asked Wu Ermao to get close and whispered a few words.
