"Von Bock?" Pastor Jefferson stopped praying, then stood up with some difficulty, straightened his clothes, shook his head, and said lightly, "He didn't come for me. ”

"And who is he coming for?" The apprentice asked softly in a little puzzled, and said that the man probably wasn't full of food.

"Who else could it be?" Brother Jefferson walked to the basin, washed his hands, tidied up his clothes, and said a little worriedly: "Now who doesn't know that the top priority in the three northern counties is to suppress bandits, and there are many bandits in the three northern counties, but they can be called the climate, then there are only von Bock, Joseph and Dupont, those two people have surrendered, and as soon as they become officials, DuPont is left alone, and the government does not care about him, who else will it worry about?" ”

"Are you still going?" The apprentice was a little worried, he had heard of Von Bock's name, and he could definitely scare the child into not crying, although he surrendered now, but who knows if his banditry has changed or not, in case the wildness comes up, wouldn't it be bad to kill his teacher, and hurriedly and anxiously persuaded: "I think you should call yourself sick and excuse yourself, we are just priests, so don't wade into their troubled waters." ”

"What are they going to do to me?" Jefferson took out a handkerchief and wiped his eyes, this is his old problem, his eyes don't know why they are always crying, no matter how many times he has been treated, he has not been able to get better, and said a little self-deprecatingly: "I'm a bad old man, one has no money, two has no soldiers, what are they doing with me?" If you can't get a little oil and water, you will leave an infamy in vain, making people say that they bully defenseless pastors. I'm definitely going to go, in fact, I've already persuaded DuPont to take the step of Zhao'an, but he has always refused to listen to me. Von Bock came to me, it must be to talk about it, or so, I will first go to his bargaining chips to see his sincerity, if he sincerely wants to recruit An, I will inform DuPont before it is too late, if he cheats, I can also give DuPont a reminder. ”

What else could the apprentice say, he could only take a large coat and put it on Jefferson, smiled and patted his ass, and said, "The teacher is really high-minded, and there are really few people like you now." ”

"Don't wear a high hat here. Prepare the carriage. Jefferson gave him a pretended annoyance, and quipped. Then, accompanied by the apprentice, he walked out of the church door.

Oscar County. The Hilton Restaurant is the most famous restaurant in the three northern counties, opened by the Hilton family who have run the restaurant for generations, and has been around for hundreds of years. In the three northern counties, all important guests are invited to the Hilton Restaurant, so that the host will be full of sincerity.

Oscar County is a large county, with a developed economy and a large population, coupled with being on a major transportation route, there are many merchants coming and going, which has contributed to the prosperity of this county, and because of this, the Hilton Restaurant has opened a branch here.

In the most luxurious private room in the Hilton Restaurant, Von Bock, Clifford and Hoover, the county magistrate of Oscar County, were talking cordially, and Hoover said with a smile: "Two brothers, you can come here to recruit the biggest bandits in the three northern counties of An, that is a great favor to our Oscar County, from now on, we no longer have to live in the shadow of the bandit Dupont, we can live and work in peace and contentment, and live in peace." ”

Clifford and Von Bock are old rivers and lakes, knowing the truth that the soldiers and bandits have been a family since ancient times, Dupont's bandit nest is very close to the county seat of Oscar, and this Hoover county order has always been as stable as Mount Tai, if there is nothing greasy among them, the ghost will not believe it, so Clifford and von Bock did not tell him the truth, coaxing him to say that he would really recruit the Andupont bandits, so that he could still help himself say something.

Because he said before he came, von Bock was a good person, Clifford was a bad person, and sang a double reed together to coax Jefferson and others, so as soon as he heard Hoover say this, von Bock immediately took over the conversation with a smile and said, "Lord County Commander, you have won the award." We came here to recruit Brother Andubon, half out of public interest, hoping that our three northern counties can settle down, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment and live a good life. The other half is out of selfishness, after all, we are sworn brothers, and now that the situation is different, I don't want to watch him go to the point of no return. ”

Collie just sat on the side and didn't say a word, but the expression on his face was very bad, obviously dissatisfied with the status quo, and when he heard von Bock's false words, he snorted coldly in his nose, showing a look of disdain.

Naturally, his move did not escape the eyes of the long-established Hoover County Order, he had already noticed that the famous von Bock was very polite to this young man, and then according to the rumors, he guessed that he was likely to be the most proud student of Lord Taylor, who had been very famous recently, the Earl of Cliffor, and deliberately played close to him, and said with a smile: "This brother is not satisfied with this table?" If so, I'll ask them to change tables right away. ”

Collie took a sip of wine, didn't look at the host county magistrate, and said with a dissatisfied face: "No need, I'm in a bad mood, I don't have the right appetite for anything to eat, don't waste the good intentions of the county magistrate in vain." ”

This kid is too unreasonable, right, saying this in front of his master, a trace of displeasure flashed in the heart of the county magistrate Oscar, this person is really the legendary king of strategy, Count Clifford? I'm afraid it's probably fake.

Von Bock saw the displeasure of the Oscar county magistrate, to be honest, this is also the result he and Clifford wanted, that is, he hoped that the Oscar county magistrate could cooperate with the two of them to put on a good show, and introduce the VIP pastor Jefferson who was going to come over next, and hurriedly smiled: "Oscar county order, don't take it to heart, my brother is this character, not against you." ”

As he spoke, the servant outside the door pushed the door open and brought in a tall, thin monk, none other than the Rev. Jefferson.

Von Bock knew this person, and as soon as he saw him, he immediately stood up, hurriedly bowed to him, and said: "Pastor Jefferson, welcome to your arrival, you can come here, no matter what the outcome of the negotiation is, you have already given me enough face, and I will keep this in my heart." ”

Collie couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, and secretly said that this person's "Ten Thousand Joys" is really not covered, as soon as they meet a few words, they will bring a high hat to people, no wonder they can be so open.

Oscar County Commander was obviously also an acquaintance of this Jefferson pastor, and after seeing him coming, he also hurriedly stood up and smiled enthusiastically: "Pastor Jefferson, hello, it's been a long time since I've heard you explain the Bible." ”
