Chapter 80: Candidates for Assistants
Inside the Kongtong Mountain cottage, in the Juyi Hall.
There were only three people in the huge righteous hall, Yang Lin, the head of the regiment, Huo Xiong and Zhang San. The three of them sat there silently, and no one spoke. Yang Lin and Huo Xiong were very relaxed, their expressions were natural, while Zhang Sanyi's nervous look made him feel anxious in his heart, and the silence in the Juyi Hall made him even more uneasy.
After a long time, Yang Lin coughed lightly, slowly arranged the affairs of Kongtong Mountain, and explained the general arrangements after he left.
"Head Huo, after I leave, the affairs on the mountain will be handed over to you, you have to pick up this heavy burden."
In an instant, Huo Xiong seemed to be nervous and stubbornly got up from his chair, gave a standard military salute, and shouted in a deep voice: "Yes, young master, my subordinates will never fail to live up to the tasks you have assigned, and they will do their best to complete them!" "The words are chiseled, the oath is swearing, and the body stands straight.
At this moment, Huo Xiong's answer was completely instinctive, a soldier's habit. In the past few years within the followers, every Yang Lin's command, every word and deed, Huo Xiong is this expression, which has long become a kind of subconscious of him, completely engraved in his bones and blood.
Of course, Yang Lin was also used to Huo Xiong's reaction, and he was very satisfied with his execution of his orders, so his attitude at this time was very normal, just one hand gently undulated, motioned Huo Xiong to sit down, and said in a harmonious voice: "Captain Huo, I believe you have also seen it, thousands of people outside are waiting to be placed, can you roughly say now, after I leave, what are you going to arrange?" How? ”
Yang Lin's face was not without worry, worried that Huo Xiong was a soldier, who only knew how to dance with guns and sticks, but did not know how to manage. After all, these are thousands of people, not more than a thousand soldiers under his command, not only to solve the problem of housing, but also food and clothing, not only a lot of things, but also very cumbersome.
Hearing the young master's question, Huo Xiong frowned slightly for a while, and then said honestly: "Young master, you also know that I am a martial artist, fighting and killing, charging into battle, and training soldiers is okay. If you ask me to manage so many people, responsible for their food, clothing, food and daily life, I can only scratch my head. ”
"You are self-aware, honest, and know that you can't carry this burden, and you can't be fully competent."
After saying this, Yang Lin stopped talking, became silent, and began to think, and the Juyi Hall was silent again.
During the dialogue between Yang Lin and Huo Xiong, Zhang San kept sitting on the side, listening in his heart and looking at his eyes, without any interjection, and did not express his own opinions. Because he knew that this so-called young master didn't believe in himself, and it was impossible for him to take care of this cottage.
Zhang Sanye understands that this is human nature, after all, the time he and Yang Lin and his gang have been together for less than five days, how can the other party rest assured of himself in such a short time? Leaving a small life, it is already a very lucky thing to have such treatment.
Although I know that the possibility of being reused is very small, I am still thinking in my heart, empathy, if it is me, what should I do? What should I do?
The reason why Zhang San thinks this way is just that he personally feels that although in the future, in the village of Kongtong Mountain, if he wants to live more satisfactorily, he must have the meaning of existence. Suggestions and suggestions are not lost. If the idea is good, this Huo Regiment Leader should have a better opinion of himself and no longer despise himself so much.
The process of waiting is difficult, and the process of thinking is brain-consuming. Therefore, the three people in the righteous hall were uncomfortable. The atmosphere is a little depressing, which makes people very uncomfortable, and it feels like someone is choking their necks.
At this time, Yang Lin, who had been bowing his head and meditating, raised his head and looked at Huo Xiong again, his heart was still not good, if he handed over Kongtong Mountain to him alone like this, it would not work at all, it was too risky, and he needed to think of a way to achieve both. Yang Lin did not doubt Huo Xiong's loyalty, but did not believe in his ability.
Not only because Huo Xiong is a martial artist and lacks life experience, but also because Huo Xiong is completely familiar with Kongtong Mountain and has never been here.
Moreover, there are still thousands of people waiting outside to make arrangements, and the matter is very hasty and urgent, and there is not much time left for Huo Xiong to study and familiarize himself with everything in Kongtong Mountain.
So many people are not only food, clothing and clothing, but also a long-term key question, that is, how to develop Kongtong Mountain in the future? Where is the direction? These are matters that need to be resolved urgently and must not be delayed.
Then, Yang Lin's gaze slowly shifted, and when he saw a position, his eyes lit up in an instant, and he looked meaningfully at Zhang San, who bowed his head and was silent. After a while, Yang Lin's heart suddenly brightened up, and he had an idea, which was also the best way at the moment.
"Head Huo, I know you can't manage this cottage, now I'll find you an assistant and let him be in charge of the daily affairs in the mountains. And you are mainly responsible for the defense, security and training of soldiers in the cottage, what do you think? ”
Huo Xiong couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, his face appeared, and he asked eagerly, "Really?!" Just let me be in charge of defense and stuff like that, and I don't have to manage the daily chores? If that's the case, that's great. There was still some disbelief on his face, which made Huo Xiong surprised inexplicably.
Yang Lin nodded in confirmation, it was exactly so. Huo Xiong, who was determined in his heart, asked again: "Then young master, who is the assistant you are talking about?" Why didn't you just say that? ”
"Far away in the sky, close in front of you~"
At this time, Zhang Sanyi, who had been bowing his head and still thinking about it, was startled, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but look around, looked at the Juyi Hall, and finally stopped at his body.
Huo Xiong looked at Yang Lin suspiciously, then looked at other places, and finally stopped at Zhang San's body, he really didn't like this greedy man who was afraid of death, his face was incredulous, he pointed at Zhang San, and said uncertainly: "Young master, you can't be talking about him, right~?" ”
"Ran~, yes, it's him, Zhang San!" Yang Lin stroked his chin, calmed down, and replied with a smile.
At this moment, Zhang San was stunned, he didn't expect that Yang Lin would choose to manage his daily affairs by himself, although he thought of himself at that moment just now. But Zhang San clearly knows how much weight Yang Lin's decision has, although this assistant is not the helmsman of Kongtong Mountain, but he is also the real No. 2 person, the real real power. It can be said that under one person, above thousands
Until now, a few minutes have passed, Zhang San is still in shock, unable to believe, his fingers are subconsciously pointing at himself, muttering, speechless, thinking that he is in a dream.
Yang Lin saw that Huo Xiong was not very willing, and Zhang San was in charge of daily affairs, not only because Zhang San was an outsider and used to be a bandit. The most important thing is that Zhang San was greedy for life and afraid of death, and betrayed the original gang of bandits in this cottage, Huo Xiong, as a soldier, looked down on such a person from the bottom of his bones.
Yang Lin didn't pay attention to Huo Xiong's attitude, let alone explain anything, but looked at Zhang San and asked softly: "Zhang San, if you are asked to be in charge of the daily affairs of Kongtong Mountain, can you not tell me, what are you going to do first?" ”
In an instant, Zhang San woke up from the shock, thought slightly, his eyes flashed, and then he said confidently: "Young Master, I can't say a specific plan now, I can only say what to do?" Specific things still need time to be scrutinized and verified. ”
