Chapter 9, the family gate valve

When the hot summer quietly slips away, it also indicates that the hard work of the working people in this era will begin again. When everyone rushed to Xiapi City, the large bronze wooden gate with iron was being pushed open by the guards at the gate, as if it was not satisfied with the rude hands and feet of these reckless men, and the tall city gate also emitted a squeaky protest.

Kou Feng looked at the city wall with large stones and bricks piled up to a foot high, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, as the state seat of Xuzhou. The vicissitudes of life experienced by Xiapi City can be seen on this city wall at this moment, and at this time, people can feel the majesty of this ancient city more and more, and their hearts are more and more awe-inspiring.

With the increasing number of people and merchants at the city gates, it was time for the caravan to say goodbye.

"Now that I've arrived in Xiapi, I don't need to escort me anymore!" Zang Ba looked at the chief steward of the Mi family and Kou Feng and said, "I will go to Lord Thorn Shi to return to my life." ”

Everyone also knew that Zang Ba was determined to make contributions on the battlefield, so the chief steward of the Mi family said warmly: "Although Xuan Gao went to restore his life, I will tell the master of the family for the hard work of this way, and the Mi family will definitely have a good reward in the future!" ”

Zang Ba thanked himself, then looked at Kou Feng and said, "I don't know what Jingping will do next?" Kou Feng smiled warmly when he heard this: "Let's go into the city with the Mi family caravan first." Then he paused and said: "I haven't played this prosperous Xiapi City yet, take a look first, and then I may go to other places for a walk." ”

Through the communication with these people in the past few days, Kou Feng made him understand that the family of this era is a very mysterious but powerful group, which can be heard but cannot seem to be seen. And the only way to get out of the predicament in this era is to take refuge in the family, be the sword in the hands of the family, and do things with a gun in the palm of your hand to gain status.

For example, Zang Ba in front of him, who was originally from a family, was forced to join the bandits, and did everything possible to join the army to win the recognition of the family; The bigger ones are the Mi family, a family of generations of businessmen, although they are rich and rival the country, but every generation of him wants to break his head and get closer to the family, and this time the purchase of weapons to assist Tao Qian is a performance.

At this time, Kou Feng couldn't see this era clearly, since he came to this era, he didn't want to live his life in a daze, he just wanted to understand this era through his own experience. Since he has been kicked out of the cottage by Chang Feng, Kou Feng will not go back, so it is better to let go and let himself go in this world.

After listening to Kou Feng's answer, everyone's hearts were also clear, and at this time, Zang Ba looked at Kou Feng and said: "If Jingping wants to join the army one day, he will ask someone to come to the military camp to find so-and-so, since this is the case, then so-and-so will leave first." Then he rode away on horseback.

Seeing Zang Ba leave, Kou Feng turned his head to look at the chief steward of the Mi family, only to see the old man nodding. So a group of people entered Xiapi City, and Xiapi was indeed prosperous as the state governing office. After a while, the caravan arrived, at the gate of a mansion, and at this time there was a young man standing at the door of the house, although he was dressed in a brocade robe, he could not hide the spirit of the army.

The old man of the caravan saw that you had arrived at the young man, so he went over and saluted: "Second son" The young man also smiled with relief when he heard this: "Fu Bo has worked hard all the way. Then he was about to ask something, but was interrupted by a lark-like cry of joy.

"Second brother!" At this time, Mi Zhen was like a child, came to Mi Fang's side, held Mi Fang's arm and said, "Second brother, this trip is fun." Then he seemed to think of something terrible, and whispered: "Big brother, you're not there, are you?" Mi Fang on the side rubbed Mi Zhen's head dotingly when she heard this, and said in an elm tone: "No, the eldest brother has not returned from the state capital." Then he said in a slightly serious tone: "The eldest brother has an explanation before leaving, and after you come back, you will be in the backyard immediately, and you are not allowed to go out without permission." ”

"Oh" Mi Zhen shrank her head when she heard this, and responded with some interest.

"Why don't you go back quickly?" Immediately, Mi Fang continued to feign anger with a straight face.

"Got it" After glancing at Kou Feng casually, Miss Mi pouted and went back.

After watching Mi Zhen enter the house, Mi Fang turned around, and then looked at Kou Feng beside the old steward and smiled: "Presumably this little brother is Kou Feng and Kou Jingping, right?" Kou Feng was stunned for a moment, and then understood in his heart that it should be the old housekeeper who told the second head of the Mi family, Mi Fang. So he hugged his fists and saluted: "This is Kou." ”

What Kou Feng didn't know was that the old steward not only told Mi Fang his name, but also the martial arts and slightly superior martial arts that were on par with Zang Ba, and even the training ability from Zang Ba told the two masters in front of him.

After receiving Kou Feng's affirmative answer, Mi Fang immediately smiled and said, "I understand what happened, and what my caravan experienced this time is a misunderstanding with Brother Kou. Then he said as if inadvertently jokingly: "Hahaha, in this Qingxu land, there is no one who can offend my Mi family and be safe and sound, Jingping, you are the first." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Kou Feng to answer, he said in a slightly solemn tone: "Jingping, I really hit it off with you, and Fu Bo also told me about you in Mount Tai, why don't you come to my Mi family to do things?" ”

Kou Feng also secretly complained in his heart at this moment, and the two heads of the Mi family were not fuel-efficient lamps. First of all, he generously brought the grudge between him and Kou Feng, and then said the consequences of the investigation in a joking tone, and finally helped you analyze the current dilemma like a kind-hearted person, and finally extended an olive branch to you.

Kou Feng could only smile bitterly at this time: "Feng Kong has a brute force, and the head of the Mengmi family takes a fancy to it, and is willing to serve the army!" "In fact, Kou Feng originally had a dream in his heart, but what can a dream be worth? No matter how big the dream is, it is not lost to reality in the end! What's more, he's just a little gangster with nothing! Let's take a look at the family first, and you shouldn't be able to live up to yourself.

Mi Fang also smiled with satisfaction at this time, and was still sure of this matter, who could refuse the invitation of the family in this era, and get a lackey eagle dog, but he said loudly on his face: "Haha, with Jingping's help, my Mi family will be prosperous!" After a pause, the contempt in his eyes flashed, and he said: "Jingping will have a good time in Xiapi these days, and I will naturally inform you when the time comes, and all the expenses will be borne by the Mi family." ”

At this time, in the Assassin Mansion of Pizhou, there were three people discussing the reason. The old man who was the first among them said with relief: "When the old man came out of Xuzhou, he relied on the help of the two more!" ”

The next majestic man arched his hand and said: "The name of Tao Gong has spread all over the world, and now I govern the land of Xuzhou, and I will be able to make the people of Xuzhou have enough food and clothing." Tao Qian was also not humble when he heard this, but just smiled and looked at the other person.

If Kou Feng is here, he will be surprised that this person is quite similar to the two heads of the Mi family, yes, this middle-aged man is the eldest brother in Mi Zhen and Mi Fang's mouth, and Mi Zhu who supports the Mi family's great foundation alone. Mi Zhu also bowed his hand when he heard the words at this time: "The Mi family will be the head of the Tao horse!" ”

Tao Qian also smiled heartily when he heard this: "Haha, I have General Cao and Mi Zizhong to help, why worry about Xuzhou?" "Yes, that majestic man is Cao Bao, the head of the Cao family in the first family of Xiapi now.

Immediately, Tao Qian frowned as if he was worried: "It's just that the Yellow Turban Uprising in the fifth year of Zhongping is quite powerful, I don't know if the two of you have a good plan?" ”

Hearing this, Mi Zhu came out of the column and said: "Yu Tao Gong, my Mi family is willing to recruit 500 house slaves to pay Tao Gong for thieves." ”

Tao Qian was of course overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "So very good, so very good." The post of Xuzhou Thorn Mansion has been vacant for a long time, and I don't know if Zizhong can help me. ”

Mi Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this, and bowed down and said, "I am willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." I was about to say a few more words, but at this time, Cao Bao on the side also spoke.

"The leopard is not willing to lead the army to fight the thief for Tao Gong!" Cao Bao ignored Mi Zhu's surprised eyes on the side, paused, and continued: "The leopard is willing to lead five hundred soldiers to kill the enemy for Lord Assassin Shi. ”

"Hahaha, good, good! General Cao is worthy of being the first general in Xuzhou" Tao Qian was already excited at this time and said: "From now on, General Cao will supervise the military of Xuzhou, and I will bother General Cao in the future!" ”

Hearing this, even Mi Zhu was shocked, I am afraid that from today onwards, the Cao family will become a veritable first family in the entire Xuzhou.

At this time, although Cao Bao was happy in his heart, he continued: "Leopard is not talented, I would like to ask General Zang Ba under the command of Tao Gong to help." Hearing this, Mi Zhu's heart was already shocked, Cao Bao's move can be described as a salary draw, without Zang Ba, his Mi family's five hundred house slaves are not still in the palm of his Cao Bao.

At this time, Tao Qian was already overjoyed, and originally wanted these Xuzhou families to give some help, but he didn't expect that a little profit would have such a big gain, and he didn't notice the change in Mi Zhu and promised: "Everything depends on General Cao." ”

After the end of the state council, in the study of the next Pi Mi family. Mi Fang opened her mouth and said, "Brother, what's going on?" Mi Zhu on the opposite side said expressionlessly: "Tao Gongpi is a brother and a don't drive for Xuzhou." ”

"Ah, that's good!" Mi Fang said happily.

"Cao Bao, the head of the Cao family, raised 500 soldiers to help Tao Gong fight the thief. Tao Gong ordered him to supervise the military of Xuzhou. Then he said with a calm face: "And Cao Bao asked Tao Gong for Zang Xuangao's help!" ”

"What?" At this time, Mi Fang was already shocked, so letting him lead five hundred slaves to the battlefield was tantamount to sending him to death. Then he said angrily: "Does he Cao Bao want to swallow this Xuzhou thing alone?" ”

At this time, Mi Zhu on the other side said calmly: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, I'm afraid he wants to refuse my Mi family to join the family!" ”

At the same time, the study of the Cao family in Xiapi. There is also a dialogue going on that will determine the future direction of Xuzhou.
